Monster Musume chapter 59: Court magician vs 2 Talisman art user

For the study budget for Loreen-san´s research, I would show my ability to the unpleasant guy. Even if it goes bad, that unpleasant guy is a court magician and even he should have considerable skills. I can't despise him.

"Hey, talisman woman. Don't you have to prepare first? I'll wait" Unpleasant guy

"Oh, you're calm and composed. Then, if you insist" Talisman woman

Loreen-san stuck talismans on my neck and back. Magical power spread from there and I feel an expansion of my perception, when the power dwells in my body and the magical power is shared.

"First of all, I did body reinforcement and perception reinforcement on you. Because it accelerates plenty, I think you can't follow in your usual state. Because you become sensitive to a magical power change, I think you can sense the movement of this guy" Loreen

“Hee...it is entirely different from mine. Loreen will you fight ahead too?" Tsuchio

"With that fellow as opponent, it will be dangerous if I'm in the rear.... Hey, pose. So I can see Tsuchio´s talisman art” Loreen

“Hahaha, I don't know whether this royal court magician is satisfied...well, I will do it with full strength!" Tsuchio

Moving my body lightly, I confirm how much it has been strengthened. I don't become quite fast...because my perception is strengthened, too, I don't feel that I changed very much.

"Are you ready already? Then, please give the signal" Unpleasant guy

“Ye, Yes! Well then...start the match!” Referee (Another court magician)

With the signal, we run and the unpleasant guy fires a great deal of fireballs and delivers a barrage. I release fire bees and made them crash into the barrage. The bees are separated into 2 directions, the first group makes a hole in the barrage and the second group plunges into the unpleasant guy through the hole.

“Na!?” unpleasant guy

He didn't seem to think that his barrage was broken so suddenly, therefore he was really surprised. However he deals with it accurately. He create walls with no chanting immediately and the fire bees which come flying collide with it head on and explode. It is hard...by no means he is beaten by the fire bees.

While the sight of our opponent has been lost from the explosion of the fire bees, I throw talismans to the ground and create earth pillars, which thrust and extend towards the unpleasant guy. They will be prevented by the wall which prevented the attack of the fire bees, therefore I move them so that the opponent may be enclosed just as it is and he doesn't have time to attack.

“Good, just like that, he can't move! 5 seconds!” Loreen

“I know...!? Something comes!” Tsuchio

Focusing on the unpleasant guy, a great explosion occurred and the earth pillars are blown off. I retreated and ran away from the explosion quickly, so that the unpleasant guy has no chance to attack me.... Shit...I mean, what are 5 seconds?

"I think that he isn't an amateur...however he doesn´t come to show himself!" Tsuchio

"You said it well! Although I devoted myself to defense! I made you wait, Tsuchio. Is it possible to move him!?" Loreen

“If it is something to let him evade, I will try it!" Tsuchio

"I don't let you do so!" Unpleasant guy

The unpleasant guy sets a heat wave free in the neighborhood. The red wave which approached immediately is defended by the rock snakes I produced and have be a shield. Temporarily 4 are made, one as my guard and the remaining three to charge at the unpleasant guy.

"So what is that! A devil beast or a monster!?” Unpleasant guy

The unpleasant guy shot a compressed water bullet out and crushed the snakes. However the snakes which reproduce immediately, continue their attack. Do I add another two?

I throw talismans right in front of the unpleasant guy and also make the snakes attack from the back to make a pincer attack. The unpleasant guy who was preoccupied with the snakes in front avoided them by gliding to the side on the ground. Good he moved!

"It worked!" Tsuchio

“Yes, now leave it to me!” Loreen

In the circumference of Loreen many talismans rise and when she swings her arms, they are landing exactly in front of the unpleasant guy who stopped moving now and spread around him. They explode at a stretch. Oh, will he die....

“If it’s this much, he won’t die !” Loreen

At the time the explosion cleared, there was the unpleasant guy protecting himself against the explosion with a semi transparent dome. Muu, although it was a considerable explosion...his defense was much stronger. Because it's simple, it's a strong defense technique. However that wasn't all of Loreen´s attack. Talismans were developed so that they might enclose the dome in the air. They are connected by rays and stick to the dome. The high-density magic is crashed and smoke with intense light is emitted.

“How! With this, I shouldn't be attacked!" Unpleasant guy

“Dont underestimate me!” Loreen

A tortoise shell design enters the dome and explode suddenly. Every talisman which was in the neighborhood vanished. However at that moment a magic bullet is shot at Loreen, but she defended against it by arranging her explosion talismans in front of her.

"Such dirty magic! it’s bad if it’s not a strong magic you know!" Loreen

"That's the howling of a loser! I will win against you..." Unpleasant guy

Because they were speaking about something variously, I established a special talisman in the sky. I have the snakes bite from every direction, so that this unpleasant guy has no chance to avoid it.

“Tsuiraku Chiyo!” Tsuchio (TL note: this is the japanese name of this technique, translated it would mean forever crashing/falling. So I want to know if it is okay to let the names in japanese if they sound stupid in english or shall I find another name for it)

“Naa, shit!” Unpleasant guy

A wall appears on the head of the unpleasant guy and it collides with my special talisman head on and sparks are created. He put a good amount of magic power in his wall, therefore I am gradually pushed back. But that will be fine. If his defense is concentrated in one place, other places are negligent!

“Loreen!”

"I understand!"

Rock snakes, earth pillars, fire bees and explosion talismans surround the unpleasant guy. Even if my special talisman is pushed back, he cannot defend anymore in time. It is checkmate with this.

“...Tch, I surrender. It is my defeat" Unpleasant guy

“Hmm then, the budget goes to the study of Loreen with this" Tsuchio

"It isn't me who decides that. Well, I will say that you two beat me. Then more or less it may be reconsidered" Unpleasant guy

Did we avoid the crisis of the talisman art by this? Hush, Loreen´s talisman support was quite good. It's easy to avoid your enemy's attack with perception reinforcement. There is also such a way to use it.

“...Hey kid, what's your name?” Unpleasant guy

"It's Tsuchio" Tsuchio

“So, is that snake a devil beast?” Unpleasant guy

"It is different, it is a talisman technique" Tsuchio

“...Hmmm. The last attack was quite good, keep going and improve your skills" Unpleasant guy

After I say so, the unpleasant guy left the test site. Did he praise me at the end? He should have changed his recognition for talisman art a little....

“Bedda! What『The last attack was quite good』! He only disrespect our talisman art!” Loreen

“Well well, isn't it okay? He recognized it a little” Tsuchio

“Huh, is that so. Leaving that aside, what are those snakes and bees!” Loreen

“What, they are talisman techniques. I modeled them of creatures. That reminds me, those explosion talismans, how did you transfer them?” Tsuchio

“I used transfer magic on the talismans, in order to set a trap properly, however they were all baked by the heat wave of that fellow..." Loreen

Ah, at that time. Even my rock snake was baked by the heat wave.

"Ah, the budget should also be granted with this. I mean, I don't let them take it down even by force" Loreen

"Please do your best. However, is it okay that you're alone here?” Tsuchio

“It's fine, because the important fact is that talisman art won against that guy. Even that, he has a high status in the department" Loreen

“Hee, that person..." Tsuchio

Because force is involved, she can manage it.

“Then, I will leave now too. Please do your best with your research” Tsuchio

"Thank you very much for fighting together with me in the mock battle. Tsuchio try to study hard too” Loreen

“Yes, if there is a chance again" Tsuchio

By the way, shall I go meet Rin now? I hope she isn't angry....

"Emm, are you angry?" Tsuchio

“...Buru”

The moment I arrived the monster stable, it was just around lunch time. Rin talked with Ruu and Lime about something, but looks the other way as soon as I came in. Even when I speak to her, she doesn't answer.

“Tsuchio, you're slow. Rin was waiting the whole time for you” Ruu

“My bad, there were various things..." Tsuchio

“Mou...look, she has completely sulked. What did you do?” Ruu

“What should I do...Rin, tell me if you want to do something” Tsuchio

“...Bururu”

“Eh, that's enough?” Tsuchio

“Buru”

“If Rin wants to do it, that's fine...then, shall we do it at once?” Tsuchio

I leave the royal capital on Rin's back we travel on the highway. Rin wanted to travel with me. It looks like travel but we run with full strength. I feel the blowing wind with my body while being jolted to Rin´s back. Because it is still daytime, it is comfortable.

“Which reminds me, this is the first time for me and you to travel in this way” Tsuchio

“Buru, Burururu”

“Is that so...you should have said so before” Tsuchio

The whole time, she wanted to run only with me alone.... I didn't notice it at all. If saying so, there are no cases that I talked with Rin so much. Though we talked as much as possible...many talks did not continue. Perhaps, because she behaves like a baby....

“It is cool...I always flew on Ruu, but it isn't bad to run on Rin” Tsuchio

“Bururu”

“Hmm, it will be more comfortable in the morning. If Rin wants to run, say it anytime. When there is time, let's run together" Tsuchio

“...Buru?”

"It is good, Rin let's take time excessively. Because you are the youngest, no the second I forgot Shadow-san, it isn't necessary to be reserved” Tsuchio

“Bururu..."

“As for a girl to be slightly impudent, is just right. It's because even I'm lonely when Rin isn't too dependent at all. Or don't you want to fawn on me?" Tsuchio

“Buru! Bururuu!”

"Then do not be reserved. Ruu and Lime have a stronger desire to monopoly me, so if you do nothing, I´m stolen away” Tsuchio

Well, I think that it doesn't become like that. I myself think that favoritism is bad. If everyone is good to each other, then they are also bad. Therefore my love is philanthropy! I don't know whether it is a good thing....

“Good, Rin you can accelerate! Become the winndd!!!”

“Buruu!!!”

As a result of having run around the royal capital in that condition, we came back just before sunset. ...Ah, I forgot to go to the royal library. Well, I wouldn't change it for Rin!

“...” NikkoNiko

“...” Zununununuu!

So that's the result for leaving Ruu and Lime behind.... They were waiting for us to return, gogogogogoo!!! Seeing them, Ruu had a smile on her face, but it was Lime who was covered with dark magic. At least Rin isn't the same! I thought so,while Rin also escaped to the monster stable heartlessly. That workhorse ! Won’t she eat horse food already.

To calm Ruu and Lime down, I have to sleep with those two tonight. Lime is there, so I won't be attacked.... I´m safe.

“Good grief, why did Tsuchio-boya caused such an uproar..." Principal

“He is a problem child” Sasha-sensei

“Eh what do you mean?” Tsuchio

At dinner, I was treated like a problem child by the principal and Sasha-sensei. As for saying such a thing...there was only the mock battle.

“If it's about the mock battle, it was approved by both sides. I cannot fall silent when the study of talisman art seemed to be frozen" Tsuchio

“Come to think about it, Tsuchio-boya is using talisman art. Hush, although there are few people to spend much money on, it is too much to freeze the study. There is no development without a study" Principal

"It was rumored variously, that the first ranked court magician lost against two talisman art users. And that a big rock snake was seen" Sasha-sensei

"Oooh, it was seen.... Well, it is good particularly. Comparing such a guy as the best court magician isn't possible” Tsuchio

If it's compared with that flame tornado, then snakes look like an earthworm.... When it's away to there, only a sense of awe comes out already. If the unpleasant one was serious, we would be charred in no time.

“...Well, you should think so. Look, your reward money. Keep it properly. Because it'll be early tomorrow, sleep neatly" Principal

“Okay” Tsuchio

We seem to leave in a few days...I want that summer holidays come quickly. As for the royal library...next time.
