Chapter 333: Slave Cerian Beast
Check outside from the camp set. No boxer kangaroos...good, it looks okay.
We resume moving. Then Ix spots something.
"Master, there's a group on the move"
"People?"
"Perhaps...they are on something like us"
A group like that in the desert, you mean a caravan? I'd love to talk to them, but this place is full of summoned beasts. I don't know what information there are on this place, but I'd better put the summoned beasts away just in case.
Then I headed in the direction of the group under Ix's direction and found an oasis, a place of water and greenery. It's only natural...a caravan should have a destination, right?
Then let's go into the oasis first.
We enter the oasis without letting the caravan find us. The water in the oasis was clean and I appraise it.
Medina Oasis Water: Rarity 5, Material, Quality C
Underground water in the Medina Oasis. It can be drunk normally and is one of the important water sources in the Sandwall Desert.
So this place is called Medina Oasis. Usually when there is an oasis, there is a town, but here is wilderness.
"Master, hostile reaction"
What now? Just don't come with the Boxer Kangaroo. But apparently there is nothing to worry about. The footsteps are loud.
Pachycephalosaurus Lv30
Normal Monster Subjugation Target Active
It's a famous stone-headed dinosaur. Is it living in the desert? Well, never mind. If it's going to attack us, we'll just take it down!
The Pachycephalosaurus rushes forward, which is probably its specialty. We flee into the sky. Poor thing can't head butt us.
Then, a lot of stones flew out of its stone head. Oh, yeah! But sweet.
Byakuya, Stra. Let's split up and fight separately
We split up and the Pachycephalosaurus came after us. Meanwhile, Byakuya and Stra will be free.
When Gray, Byakuya and Stra attack, the Pachycephalosaurus changes its aim from us. We get it.
"Rune Skill!"
Now I've sealed the stone throwing, man. Then this time, it deploys a magic circle. Sweet.
"Rune magic!"
The magic is also blocked and the Pachycephalosaurus stomps on the ground and roars at me.
It seems to be protesting for a fair fight. If you already fight Lesser Griffon and Boxer Kangaroo, die comfortably.
In the end, Gray and Byakuya won with a safe bite attack and us with a safe long-range attack. Dismantling.
Stone-headed Dinosaur Skull: Rarity 6, Material, Quality C+
Skull of Pachycephalosaurus. Very hard, compatible with rushing techniques and used as material for shields.
After all, the stone head is a skull. The material is a shield material. Seems to increase the power of shield tackle and such. I'm sure Mangetsu-sans party will want it.
"Master"
"Hmm?"
Ix called over and when I followed her gaze, there was a cerian beast girl with strange ears.
"Hii!?"
Realizing that she had been noticed, she hid in a tree. However, she quietly looks at me. Well, what should I do...should I call friends in such a case...I change Hix and Stra and call Koihi and Wako.
"What's wrong? Takuto-oniichan"
"Koihi...there's someone over there"
"Ah! There's a cerian beast!"
Koihi says so and the cerian beast girl hides in a tree again.
"What...she looks just like Koihi, doesn't she?
"Eh!? Is that why you called me!?"
"No, No. I just thought that if I summoned a cerian beast, it might be able to do something about it. Could you do me a favor?"
"I'm sorry to hear that..."
When Koihi was in trouble, Wako headed toward the girl.
"My name is Wako. I'm a fox cerian beast. Can you tell me your name?"
"I...I'm Sunasaki. I am a fennec fox cerian beast..."
Fennec is a fox in the desert, known as the smallest fox among foxes.
"Sunasaki...that's a pretty name~"
"Th, Thank you...very much"
The quintessential Wako...only Koihi's older sister can do that.
"Umm...did I need to be called?"
"Hmm? Who knows, maybe you'll make a friend?"
Fennec has a chance. As I approach with Koihi in tow, I notice something.
A thick iron collar was attached to Sunasaki's neck. I tried to appraise it, but could not. Wako asked.
"That, what did you do with it?"
"...I can't tell you. If I tell you, I'll die"
It's confirmed that it's a terrible thing.
"Takuto-han..."
"Yes. I am Takuto, the summoner of Wako. This is Koihi. This one is Ix"
"I'm Ix"
"I, I'm Koihi!"
You're too nervous...Koihi.
"Sunasaki, right? Would it kill you to tell me?"
"...Yes"
"Well, how about this?"
I write on the ground with my cane. This way, I'm not saying it.
"""Indeed"""
Koihi and the others are convinced. I hand over the stick and Sunasaki fearfully writes letters on the ground.
I am a slave of the leader of the caravan that will be here soon
There is no response. Knowing this, Sunasaki smiles for the first time and writes the letters selflessly.
I was attacked and forced into slavery
There are a number of slaves in the caravan
Please. Please help us
It was a desperate plea. Then comes the info.
Special quest Free the Slaves of the Caravan has occured
Special Quest Free the Slaves of the Caravan: Difficulty C
Reward: Title Liberator of Slaves
Free the slaves from the leader of the caravan.
Well, it's a quest. Then Wako hugs Sunasaki.
"It's all right. I was once caught by a scary man, but Takuto-han helped me out. I am sure that Takuto-han will help you"
No, I'm going to do it. Wako-san. Haven't you raised the bar tremendously?
Sunasaki looks at me. See! She's looking at me with great anticipation! I can't fail this one.
"Okay...I'll help you. But we don't know anything. We're going to ask you some questions and you're going to write the answers down in motion or on the ground"
Sunasaki nodded. Good, so I'll ask her one question at a time...first, about the slaves.
