Chapter 173.1 - Red Sport Car

KYOAAAAAAAAAAA, GUGAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

The one who raised that ferocious roar was the red raptor with its burning red scales.

OOOOOOOOh, it's so fu*cking coooooooooooooooool.

I embraced the red raptor, completely satisfied with its appearance. Man, it was even more satisfying since they were used to being my opponent.

Naturally, this red raptor was Corpse Doll.

In fact, I had decided in my heart that I wanted to ride this guy the moment I caught a glimpse of it. In the first place, I had already proved the usefulness of raptor as a mount. Having pair of feet that could run agilely in any kind of terrain would be an extremely useful asset for the dungeon capture whose end had yet to be seen.

I was okay with a normal raptor, but my greed triggered at the sight of this special individual.

A big and splendid physique, one time larger than a normal raptor. Two sharp horns grew from its head, and the red scales lent it a majestic, exclusive personalized aircraft feel.

Yup, this is wonderful. It was as if I just bought a red sports car. Maybe I should nickname it "Countach" to honor that awesome-looking sports car.

Hey, Mei-chan. I wonder what's the first name youd come with if I say it's sports car?

Uhm, Alfa Romeo?

Yosh, your name is Alfa!

I mean, it would be rude to call it red raptor forever, right?

Well then, let's test drive Alfa immediately.

Hearing me, Rem the 3rd AKA Red Raptor AKA Alfawho was lying down obediently raised an adorable purr. Honestly, I could hardly believe that such terrifyingly brutal and cunning boss had now turned into an obedient Rem. Even though there was almost no change in its outer appearance, she was much more adorable right now.

I felt a pang of regret, but it was time to depart.

===

The next morning, all preparation had already been put in order and my mana had restored too, so it was time to depart.

Which reminds me, yesterday's battle was a rare battle in which I came to the front line despite fighting with a party. Mei-chan on the other hand had stayed hidden until the last moment to deal a finishing blow to the red raptor.

Since I didn't just have Rem, the existence of high-zombie and skeleton as my sacrificial pawns enabled us to execute this tactic. My male instinct whispered to me to execute this strategy so that she who always came out first as vanguard could have an easier time. This was also to prevent her from getting bored of fighting small fries.

After this, maybe it was better for Rem and me to fight if it was only the opponent around the level which we could take care of. But then, the chance for such a monster to come out constantly was close to impossible.

It was really amazing just now, but I'm really sorry since I'm the only one who rode the Alfa.

I suddenly noticed something when I saw Mei-chan speaking cheerfully as she walked beside Alfa. Just what kind of a bastard am I for letting a girl walk while I rode on the motorbike AKA Alfa?

It's okay. I don't mind at all.

I was assaulted by a pang of guilt seeing her smiling innocently like an angel.

Moreover, it makes it easier for me to evacuate you, Kotaro-kun by placing you on Rem-chan's back during the emergency.

And then, she spoke in a way that made it look like I was really weak and needed her protection or not, I mean she was right on the point, I was really weak, and this had already been established the moment I received Shaman as my vocation.

I mean, it's not like I could say Please give me cheat-like power that makes me strong! to RUinhilde-sama at this point.

Thank you. I've been saved time and again by your words.

Don't worry about me. I mean, you're dead set on riding the red raptor, right?

Uwa~, for her to see through even my childish dream of riding a red raptor, how embarrassing.
