Chapter 102 – The Wizard’s Tale (9)

#

Ostrich.

The largest living bird. Its height and weight are twice that of an adult male, and its huge claws prove that it is descended from dinosaurs. No, since birds are dinosaurs, in fact, you can see them as toothless raptors of the present age. That’s not even a historically verified Velociraptor less than 1 meter tall, but a ruthless devil version of Jurassic Park!

Anyway, we can’t deal with it alone. Even in the modern world, there are cases where fake ostriches beat the regular army, so running into that group is truly suicidal.

Anyway, by the way, the wizard who should be the most helpful is doing this.

[Name: Ariel Ionia]
[HP: 400 / 400]
[Magic power: 10 / 1450]

For a moment. Wasn’t your magic power 0 just now?

[HP: 0 / 1450]

Ariel’s magic power rose to full, but she immediately dropped to zero. It’s ridiculous. What kind of situation is this? Does this have anything to do with why this guy is making a fuss later?

In any case, it is a very difficult situation.

If the total amount of mana is a problem, how can I solve it with a buff? You can turn 1 into 5, but you can’t turn 0 into 1. It is impossible to increase what is initially zero.

If that was possible, my ability would be close to creating the world, not a buff. It’s like creating something out of nothing.

But, for now, that’s for later. I don’t have time to buff right now anyway.

“Lenny. Let me accelerate I have to run away.”

Fortunately, there is a large tree nearby, so you can shelter over it.

“Let’s go upstairs for now. They’re not going to fly.”

“No, that’s…Well…”

“Why? Can you really fly?”

No matter how strangely the monsters in the dungeon twisted the original, they can fly with those wings?! But Yuri didn’t say that.

“Well. It probably won’t fly… But just because it goes up there…”

“Is there another way?”

“No…”

“Let’s think about it after we go up. Hey, let’s go. Mr. Elf.”

“I have a name called Ariel.”

The elf grumbled like that, but quietly climbed up the tree. Although he was short and had to enlist my help.

That’s how we took shelter in a tree before they came in. But the ostrich flock didn’t just pass us by. Turn around, pass the tree again, and then again. The vibration that gets bigger every time it turns… An attitude that clearly threatens us.

“Hey. Are the ostriches here carnivorous or something?”

“…Well?”

“Then shoot the arrow slowly… Ugh?!”

“Wow!”

These ostriches aren’t just passing by now, they’re kicking trees every once in a while! I’ve only tried a few so far, but if these guys keep doing this… Yuri was grumbling that he knew this would happen. But there was only one way!

“…Tsk”

Ariel clicked her tongue and put her hand inside her robe.

“…Highly developed alchemy is difficult to distinguish from magic…”

What Ariel took out into her arms her while murmuring nonsense was a round sphere with several devices attached to it …

“Is that a bomb?”

“Yes.”

“No, if there is such a thing, you should take it out a long time ago… “

“I can’t write this.”

No why?

Before I could say anything, Ariel continued her explanation of her in a somewhat smug manner.

“Because it is too powerful. The killing radius will be 100 meters. If you had superpowers, I wouldn’t know, but if you use them here…”

Compared to this elf’s weight, the ratio of bullshit is quite high. Anyway, there’s no reason to listen to it now. I snatched the bomb.

“Therefore. How do I use this bomb?”

“There is a delay fuse and an impact fuse. Delay fuse is…”

It’s pretty serious. This elf guy was making all sorts of things. I cut off Ariel’s explanation of her.

“Can you adjust the time too?”

Ariel’s eyes widened at my words.

“Ah, did you know? That, then…”

Ariel was a little taken aback, and her words her trembled a little. Even when he sees a group of ostriches, it’s a little funny that the easy-going guy babbles that he’s at a loss for explanations. I adjusted the bomb according to Ariel’s instructions for her.

Detonates 5 seconds after pin removal. To increase the killing effect, the place to explode is in the air.

“Yuri. What do you think.”

“I think it was worth a try.”

Yuri had gotten quite used to shooting arrows by attaching something to them after the last battle with the goblins. A killing radius of 100 meters? Then you should be able to safely detonate it at 150 meters.

“Ugh!” “Wow?!”

Every time an ostrich passes a tree, the tree shakes greatly. These guys are definitely learning. The number of tree kickers increased. Twice if it’s like this, no, next turn…

“Yuri, you know?”

“What do you see me as?”

Yuri snorted and drew his bow wide, and he let go of the string at once.

-Bang!

“…!”

No. Fuck!

The killing radius is 100 meters! You thought a nuclear bomb had exploded!

Of course, I didn’t think I was going to go blind like a nuclear bomb, but a small mushroom cloud as if several tons of TNT had exploded…

It’s a shame that Lenny spread protection in advance, if I did something wrong, I could have been caught in the aftermath!

“…Looks like you’ve taken care of everything.”

As Ariel said, most of the ostriches were down. There were a few survivors, but they were just reeling from the explosion and shock.

“…Magic is not simply using mana to create a certain phenomenon. Making the impossible possible is what we call true magic. Whether or not mana intervenes is not important. In that sense, this result could be considered magical.”

Ariel nodded his head to himself while chattering.

Something, something feels seriously wrong. I was about to say something out of stupidity, but Yuri grabbed me.

“Brother, look at that.”

An ostrich staggered in the direction Yuri pointed. And on top of that…

“That. People are riding.”

“People?”

“Yes. Ah, I think we met eyes.”

He goes back and forth, then turns his back on us…

“Are you running away?”

In this situation, riding an ostrich and even running away? Then…

“Shoot the ostrich and drop it. Can you?”

“Yes. Wait a minute.”

After a while The guy rolled on the ground.

#

An ostrich rider lying face down in front of us, tied up. No matter how many times he was trampled by the ostrich, he was covered in dirt and his clothes his were torn here and there. He once healed the trauma by walking on heels, but he can’t help but feel dirty.

[Name: Orma Taylorner]
[ Job : Tamer ]

It’s a tamer. Tame a monster? Even locals who don’t have familiar skills need to have a lot of experience to tamer. Why did those guys attack me?

“Hey. Wake up.”

-Jurr.

“Wake up. Wake up!”

– It’s rumbling.

“Kuh… Ugh! What, what!”

He didn’t open his eyes until he drank an entire canteen over him. I wanted to hit him on the cheek, but I was a little nervous about using violence in front of the kids. Only see the good

“Keugh. Who, who are you! What is this?! Why did you tie me up? Release this!”

“No, it can’t be. You sent that ostrich to attack us.”

“What, what are you talking about… “

It seems that this guy can’t lie. His eyes are trembling terribly. Is this your first time doing something like this?

“Orma Taylor. Monster Tamer. Right?”

“My, how did you know my name?!”

…A pitiful fellow. You have to catch it not there. Are the people of this world naive, or is this guy naive? If you think of Rize, this guy could just be an idiot.

“I know for sure that you can handle monsters in such a large amount. Besides, you ride an ostrich like that and pretend like that?”

“I do not know! I am an individual!”

Okay. I’ll hold you to the end, right? I clenched my fists.

“For a moment.”

Ariel tugged at my arm.

“In a dungeon, adventurers cannot attack each other.”

“No, why?”

This elf is making strange noises again. This guy has a habit of talking… It’s like spitting out a conclusion first and then explaining the reason, so it’s very out of the blue from the listener’s point of view.

“If adventurers attack each other, it will be recorded on their adventurer certificate.”

“Yeah, yes! You guys must not hurt me!”

Adventurers shouldn’t attack each other. Did Rize say that? I don’t remember. However, Yuri pondered, and he clapped his hands as if he had remembered.

“…Right. I think it was written in the guild membership agreement. Haven’t you read it?”

“No…Who reads that these days…”

“Of course you should read that carefully… Wait a minute. What, what So am I going to be arrested?”

A glass with a sharp expression. Fortunately, Ariel provided additional explanation.

“No. Adventurousness reacts only to direct harm. It is difficult to capture even the intention.”

Indeed. So instead of attacking directly, I used monsters. It’s not a meat-eating monster, it’s because it uses ostrich-like things in large quantities. There was a reason why it bothered me.

“Okay?”

However, Yuri seemed to have come up with something, and she reacted with displeasure. A mischievous face full of mischief.

“Then hang it on a tree and shoot the string to make it fall…”

“…”

“No, do you like cliffs?”

“Mr. Yuri…”

Orma and Lenny’s faces turned pale. The villain is what you do for yourself. And Lenny, you’re not doing your job, so why are you doing that? This guy needs to be scolded. But the method was not good.

“It’s okay. I have a better way.”

#

“Wait over there.”

“Yes?” “But… What are you going to do?”

“It’s a conversation between men. Because there’s nothing good for you guys to hear. Got it?”

“Huh…”

I tied him to a tree and sent the girls away. Orma looked up at me with fearful eyes. But still screaming

“What are you doing?! This is illegal! If you report it to the guild, you won’t be safe either!”

“Oh, of course, I don’t have any intention of doing direct harm to you, so don’t worry.”

Maybe he felt something about my attitude, so he lowered his voice and became friendly. Guy, not arrogant.

“Hey, won’t you let go of this? I won’t complain now. There seems to have been a misunderstanding, wouldn’t it be better to solve it with a story?”

“Of course. Have to tell a story You will talk a lot.”

I took the aphrodisiac slime out of my pocket.
