Chapter 558 – [My Admissions Expedition]

The second raid came 4 days after the first raid. But again, I moved like a bomber and stopped them.

However, there were quite a number of them. It will be 1.2 times more than last time…… It will be a bit difficult if there are many like this.

“Recently, their offensive has been getting stronger. Usually it’s less than this, but…”

“We’ve been raiding, so let’s get ready. The limit is until tomorrow.”

“Change your clothes first. In the forest, comfortable clothes are the best.”

For the first time since I was reincarnated in this world, I tried on clothes that emphasized activity rather than luxurious clothes. Compared to my stationmaster, I put on ladder armor or something like that, and put food and equipment for a few days in my bag.

In fact, I don’t need almost anything, but there are people who whine if I don’t bring it, so I brought it.

“This, and this, and this.”

“……What isn’t there much?”

“You’re leaving after all! Then no matter how much you pack, it’s not enough!”

“Are you going to be my wife?”

“It’s going to be!”

“No, there’s an immediate answer?!”

I think it will be quite worth seeing if Shion comes over later… Oh, of course I’m on my wife’s side!

No matter how much I like Lady Luminus, it’s still worse than Shion. It’s a little bit to say that people’s hearts are cut, but what can’t be helped is unavoidable.

After packing my luggage, I am full. It is not inconvenient to carry, but it is inconvenient to carry.

What do you mean? It’s bulky, so it means that it’s difficult in many ways for my body to carry around on my back. Well, I still have to bear it.

“Please take care of yourself, Your Highness”

“Do not worry”

“Daughter, this father is…”

“Ah, please take good care of my father as well.”

“… That’s why when her daughter gets married, she says she’s a stranger”

It can’t be helped. For a daughter, a father or husband is equally a family member and a precious man, but her husband’s feelings are romantic love.

There are often people who are blinded by love, and that feeling is unavoidable. I feel the same way when my daughter brings her son-in-law.

“First, let’s start exploring in the center of the forest. Is there anything else I need or need to know?”

“The compass doesn’t work there, so you have to navigate only by your senses or by the sun. And you have to be careful because you don’t know where the monsters will come from.”

If the compass doesn’t work, is the magnetic field disturbed by imagination? It’s not a nice place either.

I telekinetically lifted the Beast Marquis. I lightly cover it with my force field to protect my body from being harmed by shockwaves that exceed the speed of sound.

“Then let’s go”

It flies quickly and heads for the black forest in the distance. The sun was still up, so their movements were sluggish, but it was something you wouldn’t know if you went into the forest.

Suddenly, I remembered the self-fantasy of Marquis Vistra. You said it’s definitely a self-fantasy that gets stronger at night?

“Because of this, Yeongji needed a self-fantasy that would make her stronger even if there were restrictions.

Come to think of it, did you say you could defeat Duke Magnus at night? Hagi story Such a characteristic technique is rather good. Even if the overall average is high, one is not as outstanding as one who is stronger than himself.

Eventually, time passed and they reached the middle of the forest. Looking down on the forest from a height, the topography of the forest came into view.

“Isn’t it a bit strange that there are no trees there?”

“Hmm…That one?”

Our location is hundreds of meters above the black forest. Even if not all of them are visible, a significant part of the forest is visible.

However, among them, I saw a place where the forest was not thick like a round shape like a soldering iron bun.

If there was a water source like a lake, I would understand, but there is just an empty vertical cave open there.

I widened my senses and took a look inside… Something is strange. I can’t see the end of the cave, and something gets caught in the middle, so I can’t feel any more.

That rather gave me confidence. If I don’t get caught up in my feelings, rather, that void becomes proof that there is something.

“It’s probably the same over there.”

“……If it had come through the ground rather than flying, I wouldn’t have seen it even if I brought an army.”

The Count clicked his tongue, perhaps sensing the presence of monsters screaming on the ground.

The location of the vertical cave is further north in the middle of the forest. If you want to come from the other side, you have to go to the northernmost part of the continent by boat and cross the mountain, which is quite a bunch.

More than anything, the monsters won’t be able to leave it alone. If you want to build an encampment without the [Rear Wall], You’ll have to replace people. Not some kind of Stalingrad.

“Let’s go in first.”

“……Yes, because I need to be more confident.”

Eventually, we landed on the ground. I didn’t bring any cave exploration equipment, but I have a good feeling, so I can catch a road inside.

The vertical cave was quite deep. It was shaped like a spiral, and at the bottom, it was bent in an L shape, so it felt like there was a separate passage.

A spiral road that could pass even a sufficiently carriage-like one is not natural. This… Is artificial, even if it’s a bit crude.

“Growl”

“Muuuuu!!!!!!”

“Keep it off? Gig it up!!!!!”

And the cries of the monsters were heard. The one with protruding fingers instead of eyes. All sorts of nasty guys, including the one whose tongue split into seven strands and wriggling incessantly salivating, were making their way up the vertical cave along the spiral path.

Looking at that, I think I know that this is the abyss they climb up. Yes, this is the source

“They…!!!!”

“The number is quite large. If we break down the road to this cave, we will be able to deal with it, but…”

“…I found a place that none of my ancestors could find, but I want to be a little overzealous. I have to deal with the remnants of the Black Witch.”

I have the power to bring down this vertical cave. But there was a possibility that they would dig another burrow and come out again, and we had to think about the possibility of another exit from the burrow.

What we are here for is the eradication of the cause. I’m not here for an indirect solution.

“It’s wrong to sneak in, so let’s go in while dealing with it.”

“All right”

Count Bistra raised the spear. It was his favorite bottle that he used until yesterday.

We walk down the spiral staircase. The purpose of coming here is to deal with the monsters you see.

“Device device device device device!!!!!”

“Goowaaaaa”

Hideous monsters spot us and attack us. The aisle had enough room to fight.

If these guys leave, they will attack the Beastra territory again, and if you ignore them and go down, they will come down and aim for our rear. Better to deal with it.

“These bastards!!!!!”

Kwagwagwa!!!!

The spear wielded by Count Bistra destroys the stairs and kills them. Some were caught in the aftermath and fell down vertical caves.

But the guys who came from behind didn’t care about that and attacked again. Their hostility toward humans is strange.

……. Come to think of it, they killed humans, but didn’t eat them. It means that they are hostile to humans, not that they view them as prey.

Are these guys creatures in the first place? Even if it is a creature created from self-fantasy, shouldn’t it have to live by consuming something since it was born?

“Your Highness! One guy is going over there!!!!”

“Oh, I was selling my mind”

I made a blade of telekinesis and cut them straight. No, while doing so, he blew the blade and swung it like a spiral along the wall of the vertical cave, cutting hundreds of monsters at once.

Quagga gagagak!!!!

Seeing this, Count Bistra took away the spear that he no longer needed to wield and put on a puzzled expression.

“Didn’t you write it like that from the beginning?”

“I have something to think about. Let’s keep going.”

After passing through the spiral passage of the vertical cave, we reached the bottom of the cave.

Looking at the ground, even though it is a vertical cave, the light is so deep that it looks small. It must have descended hundreds of meters from the ground.

The problem is the horizontal cave connected from below. This is a structure that makes it difficult for light to enter, so it is so dark that you cannot see in front of you. It’s me, but I need a light source just in case.

“I guess it starts in earnest from here. Let’s light a torch first.”

Among the equipment we brought was a torch. Originally, I didn’t intend to bring it, but it was among the items Luminous had brought. Ah, readiness saved us.

I lit a torch with flint. There are no monsters in sight other than the ones we killed earlier, so the cave looks cold and creepy.

But in the darkness beyond, the faint monster’s cries came terrifyingly. Ugh, this definitely reminds me of a horror movie.

There’s a movie about why you go on a cave expedition and get attacked by strange monsters inside. Did part 2 come out? Anyway that

“Let’s listen”

Count Bistra raised his spear as if he had finished preparing his heart. You can’t be careless in this place anymore.

The cave was deep. It was as deep as the shaft we had descended through. And it smells damp and musty. If a person lived in a place like this, he would get a mental illness in no time.

“Kihihi!!!!”

Before long, a monster jumps out from afar. It was a monster that looked like a human head split in half with an axe.

Since it was split, it was split vertically with the blade of telekinesis. Cut in half and die!

“Its screams must have made our existence known to the others.”

“For something like that… No, what is it?”

There were at most dozens of monsters in the cave. There were few of them for their origin, but as their screams echoed through the cave, their numbers suddenly began to rise.

I’m sure, something I couldn’t find with my gut feeling must be creating them.

In just a few minutes, the cave, which had only dozens, was filled with spirited monsters. And they’re coming this way quickly.

Aaaaa!!!!

Mmmm!!!

That device!!!!!

Inside the cave, their screams collide with each other, creating a sense of fear. Count Bistra frowned and raised his imagination.

“Anyway, I think I’ll have to write my own fantasy from here.”

“I guess that’s what it should be.”

“But since the place is a cave without a single light… The conditions might be right.”

“That’s good news.”

I have no problem, but Count Bistra used his self fancy. The sun is still up, but here is the deep part of the cave that reminds me of the night.

Count Bistra’s muscles swell. He grows as if his body, which was about the size of a burly adult man, is bulking up.

His momentum changed like that of a beast. He was like a beast, wild and instinctive, ready to hunt.

“[Beast of the Night]. This is my self-fantasy.”

“It’s quite strong compared to what I used during the day. It’s a cave, so it seems that some of the conditions are right, right?”

Count Bistra’s overall specs became stronger, and in addition to that, his long-term intuition and instincts also became much stronger. It’s not my level, but to the point where I can fight in a melee even in a cave with no light.

It’s not night after all, but it seems that the darkness in the cave has been strengthened a bit because the conditions are right. At that level, I’m on par with Duke Magnus.

“Let’s keep moving forward. Forced breakthrough”

Forced Breakthrough! What a wonderful word!!!!

I made a blade of telekinesis… No, an awl. A large area like a blade is ambiguous to use in a confined place like inside a cave.

“Big, big, big, big!!!!”

“One shot at a time!”

Wooow!!!!

An awl of telekinesis is shot like an arrow and pierces and kills the monsters in front of it. However, the guys who kept pushing in were showing the end of humane tactics.

Kill and kill and kill and keep killing. Their numbers increase to such an extent that their corpses block the cave passage.

“One real number is no joke!”

Hagisa At this rate, they attack by 100,000 animals every few days!!!!

The good news is that monsters on the ground are not coming in from the rear. If that was the case, I used the authority even if it was annoying.

But the end was in sight. We reached the only place where my senses couldn’t reach, the deepest part of the cave.

It’s a big joint But the mass of meat filling one-third of the large cavity squirmed and vomited the monsters.

The chunk of meat, which seemed to have dozens of female genitalia, had something like a hump attached to the top. I lift a torch and shine it in that direction, and the hump wriggles.

No, it wasn’t a hump. It was the upper body of a woman with only the upper body remaining.

The pale skin and white hair contrasted with the chunk of meat below caught my eye.

………The Black Witch?
