146 - - Episode 34 Frustrated

Disarm the disguise.

Hisomi, appraising us once again, raises an astonished voice.

Are you players?　How many exclusive items and how much time did you spend to get to that level!　Oh, that's impossible!

'Prayer' and 'Senyo items'?"

Once again, the unintelligible language comes out.

Seeing me and Mei trying to say 'unintelligible,' HISOMI, who is rolling on the ground, mutters heartily in frustration through gritted teeth.

'Is she acting or does she really not know? But if there are two people in the level 9000 range, these guys are definitely related to "C", aren't they? d*mn it!　If I had gotten the information earlier, I could have done better. ......

I'm sorry to be ...... frustrated, but I have a lot more questions I need to ask. I'll move to a different location and let the body and spirit tell me more about it. What else was it ...... yeah, I think it was 'this is a one-sided capture'?"

d*mn!"

I say back the line I uttered when HISOMI mistakenly thought I was level 1000.

He has a gut-wrenching expression on his face, but he understands that now that our positions have been reversed, there is little chance that he will escape unharmed, so he cannot argue and falls silent.

............"

Hisomi's eyes dart around, but escape is impossible because she is covered in a cocoon of "magic strings.

Finally realizing the true horror of the cocoons around her, she clicks her tongue in frustration.

The cocooning of the surroundings is to prevent escape, but there is another meaning as well. ......

I don't have to bother telling you.

The first thing you need to do is to make sure that you have a good idea of what you're getting into.

He made a fearless expression, not yet giving up on his escape.

I think I'm done with ....... Now that we have the jackpot information, we will escape from this cocoon, even if we have to use a little forceful means."

Do you really think you can escape from this?"

You never know unless you try!　Poison Mist!

One of hissomi's tentacles spits a green mist from its mouth.

By all appearances, from the name and appearance, it is a deadly poison.

However, May and I are level 9999 and have poison resistance, so a half-assed poison would have no effect at all.

It was pointless.

However, HISOMI's goal was not to poison us.

Hisomi's appearance was hidden by the poison mist--buying us some time?"

The poisonous mist is exhaled at a furious rate and fills the inside of the cocoon.

As a result, hissomi's figure is hidden in the dark green poison mist, but with no escape route, what is the point of hiding his figure and buying time now?

（The "acid bullet" would do some damage to us, but only a little. (Acid bullets would damage us, but only slightly, and we evaded them because we didn't want to damage or puncture our equipment or clothing.)

May also avoided it for the same reason I did.

I wonder if I misled her into thinking we were the only ones who could use it because we were avoiding the "Acid Bullet"?

Hisomi laughs from behind the dark green fog.

He says, "You can never be too careful. This time it is fog. It was a mistake to let him use "poison mist" because he knew it wouldn't work. Thanks to you, I was able to buy some time.

What's the use of buying time?　You can't run anywhere now."

Nowhere?　No, no, I have a way to escape. ---- "Transfer Stone", transfer me to his land!

--It seems that HISOMI's trump card was a magic item called a "transfer stone" that could be transferred over long distances.

However, there is no sign that the transfer magic is activated, and only his astonished words are heard.

"......!　Why aren't we shifting!　Why aren't the 'transition stones' responding!"

If you make so much noise, what's the point of hiding behind the poisonous fog?

"Gooooooo!"

He cuts through the dark green fog and closes the distance in an instant, kicking a stunned Hisomi while holding a shiny magic item in his hand.

He quickly turns his tentacles to guard, but is unable to kill the power and bounces and rolls repeatedly on the ground.

He then kicks the stunned HISOMI in the face, but he can't kill it and rolls on the ground several times.

d*mn, that's gawd...... why isn't the transition triggered!　Is there some kind of transition-inhibiting magic in this cocoon?　That's impossible!　It would be the kind of thing that could be created by a high-ranking magician in that kind of goddess realm, deep in a dungeon, or in the 9,000s level, using magic items. Are you saying that the maid is a high-ranking magician?　That's impossible!

Of course, I have a trick or two up my sleeve, but I'm not going to reveal them to you," he said. By the way, it's not just the transference, but also the 'telepathic communication' with my friends that's being sabotaged."

"............"

I told you, this is a one-sided capture." There is no way out for you once you are encased in this cocoon."

The poisonous fog that covered the inside of the cocoon was also ventilated by May using "Magic String" to create small gaps throughout the dome, pulsating to create a flow of air.

Thanks to this, the density of the fog had diminished considerably, and we were able to see the expression on HISOMI's face as she kneeled on the ground.

HISOMI had a face that could be described as "an expression of bitterness.

As I had pointed out, she seemed to be in a hurry because not only was she unable to transfer, but she was also unable to connect even with her "telepathic communication" to communicate with the outside world.

It seems that Ellie and Nazna did well, just as I had hoped.

(I'll have to give them a proper pat on the back later.)

I write it down on a note in my chest so I don't forget.

I turn to HISOMI again and ask her.

I turn to Hisomi again and ask her, "I want you to stop wasting your time and surrender. You don't want to be hurt any more than you already are, do you?

............"

He grits his teeth so frustratedly that I can hear him up here.

Hisomi glares at him, anger evident.

'Don't get carried away, you little shit!　Even if you defeat Kosei, the rest of us will avenge you..."

I'd like to hear more about that.

Since there was no sign of surrender without resistance, I choose to incapacitate him by force.

Gugaaaaaaaaaah!"

He stabbed her in the abdomen with his cane, aimed at the tip of her crumpled jaw, and kicked her, forcing her to fly unconscious.

Although he was in the middle of his speech, he succeeded in taking hissomi's consciousness as he aimed.

I turned around and called out to Mei, who was trying to maintain the cocoon.

Mei, I need you to restrain him. If you take him to the lowest level of the Abyss, I don't think there is any danger of him escaping, but make sure to tie him up carefully.

I am in awe of you. Then let's bind not only the limbs but also the mouth just in case...?　Mr. Wright!　Get away from me!

What?

May shouts a warning in the middle of her line.

I, too, noticed something unusual and moved immediately from the spot.

The anomaly definitely comes from inside the body of the stunned hisomi - its interior.

The tentacles on his back pulsate, and HISOMI's unconscious body jerks and convulses.

His mouth opens wide, and a tentacle emerges from inside his body, regardless of the fact that his jaws are dislodged.

Hisomi himself is still unconscious.

Giggity giggity giggity giggity giggity giggity giggity giggity giggity giggity giggity giggity giggity giggity!

The tentacles that have emerged from his body are clearly hostile.

Apparently, the battle is not over yet.
