Re Istode : Things that kitsune girl do in another world

The monsters were not swallowed into nightmares. That was extremely bad.

I don't want these monsters to go after Ruciel and the others. So, I decided to lure them and go in the opposite direction. 

Before I begin the plan and to make sure that the monsters follow in my footsteps, I must shed their blood first.

Inside this mist, I approached a Tear Antelope with Heat Perception as a guide.

I moved as fast as possible without care. So, because of it, the monster noticed my presence, it came to me, probably wanted to attack me with its horns. 

Of course, I didn't let the monster hurt me. I took a deep breath. I observe the monster's movements and waited for it to get closer. After that, I swung my spear as fast as possible.

Swoss! Splat!

My spearhead pierced the eye and then the monster's brain.

I managed to kill it with one strike.

My hand moved to pull the spear from the monster's head. My legs moved to bring me to the other nearby monsters. My fox ears moved to catch the sounds of the monsters around me.

I tried to get close to a Tear Antelope but I was found by two of them first.

No, I have no intention of hiding and this is not the time to put my plan in motion. That's why I prepared my spear, I channeled my energy all over my body.

"Ru!"

"Bill! Ru!"

The monsters entered my attack range. A moment later, I said, "[Flash Swings]"

Red lines were created, blood was shed, two outcries were created, and finally, two monsters fell on the ground.

I turned my face away from the corpses to continue carrying out my plan. At the same time, I noticed the movements of the monsters that seemed to be confused inside this mist.

Surprisingly, the monsters didn't split up, they stayed together as they tried to get out of the mist.

They could catch up with me in seven seconds but because of their behavior right now, I get extra time. Thanks to this, I managed to kill three other Tear Antelope.

As the mist thinned, I approached that group of monsters.

I used Water Shot, Wind Cutter, and Wind Cannon to grab their attention.

"Shaa!"

"Whiii!"

"Rawr!"

The spells I shot made some of those monsters angry. They approached me for revenge and their friends followed closely behind.

I turned around and ran away.

My plan to attract their attention was a big success. Now, I just need to herd them far enough away from Ruciel and the others. After that, I'll escape from those monsters using a combination of Swift Gale, Swift Movements, and Mist of Nightmare Illusion.

Time passes...

I managed to lure those monsters away. But unfortunately, seven of them broke away from the main group to go after Kimi and the others.

That's something I don't want. Especially when those monsters that broke away were Black Cheetah and Reatle Red Snake.

If the one that broke away from the main group was another species, I can breathe a sigh of relief. I believe, Ruciel and the others could do something to escape from the monsters. And if they were lucky, everyone might be able to defeat the monsters that came at them.

But... For the scenario when seven Sub Bosses with an average level of forty vs. five Adventurers with an average level of thirty, it makes me short of breath.

Players could die as many as five times in that scenario and yes, I had to do something to stop those Sub Bosses.

"[Doppelganger]"

Using my other Unique Skill, I changed to Patchwork Corpse under the name Product No. 7. Once again, I was a creepy monster who had three arms, two pairs of eyes, and a wide, filled with sharp teeth mouth.

I'm repulsive but I'm strong, extremely strong.

My footsteps changed as I turned and chased after those Sub Bosses.

And yes, I was extremely fast, and once again, I had trouble controlling this sudden increase in power. 

Fortunately, thanks to my previous experience and determination, I was able to control that explosion of power when I catch up with those sub-bosses.

"Rawrr!"

"Shaa!"

A Black Cheetah and Reatle Red Snake stopped to greet me. They were extremely thoughtful so I gave them gifts.

"[Colossus Punch]"

Bahm!

"Hiss!"

The strongest Arte of the Unarmed Combat Mastery at level five sent Reatle Red Snake flying. Not only that, but the blow also shattered the monster's lower jaw.

A moment later, the flying snake monster landed by hitting the other two monsters.

"Rawrr!"

Black Cheetahs come with glowing claws. 

The monster jumped to pounce on me.

A monster without wings floated in the air. It was defenseless and that was an opportunity. So, I filled my body with energy and then I blast it up.

"[Flash Swings]"

My spear swung rapidly to cut off the monster's stomach.

Swoss! Swoss! Splat! Splat!

"Rawr!" The monster roared before it fell.

A pool of blood was created under the injured Black Cheetah. The monster tried to get up but I didn't let it. My spear swung and this time, the weapon pierced the monster's head to end its life.

My battle against two monsters caught the attention of the other monsters. They stopped chasing Ruciel and the others. They turned around, came to gang up on me.

I'm not afraid of them.

I have a new power.

I've made my determination.

So I fought against them.

"[Swift Movements]"

When using Doppelganger, my AGI broke through the four hundred mark. Then, when I used Swift Movements, the AGI broke through the one thousand two hundred mark. With that amount of AGI, I was able to surpass the Black Cheetah's speed easily.

And I'll say, everything around me is getting slower, even closer to barely moving!

I took a deep breath before I started attacking.

I want this fight to end as soon as possible. At the same time, I want the dangers possessed by these monsters to disappear immediately. Therefore, I aimed at the vital points of the monsters.

My spear, fist, and sword of light pierced, crushed, and cut off the heads and hearts of those monsters.

Then, when the duration of the Swift Movements ended, almost all the monsters around me died. Those still alive are in critical condition.

My body moved to kill those helpless monsters.

< Level up! 26 to 27 >

< Level up! 27 to 28 >

I managed to clear the Sub Bosses and my level went up twice. However, this is not the time to be excited, I have to deal with the chaos that is the main group of monsters.

They finally came to catch up with me.

Facing them head-on and at once is an extremely bad idea. So, I made a plan by utilizing Fire Breath.

I burned the grass in front of them. Then, I ran sideways while burning the other grass. My plan is to make a ring of fire. I want to trap them inside it and make them panic. Along with that, I want to drain their HP.

The monsters stopped running as they saw the burning flames. They panicked, faster than I expected, and started to run away from the fire I made.

I don't want to let them escape. Therefore, I increased my running speed. But a moment later, I realized, I wouldn't be able to catch up or even overtake them if I ran while burning the grass.

So, I stopped using Fire Breath to use Swift Gale.

I ran and managed to get ahead of the monsters. 

Using Fire Breath again, I created a wall of fire to block them. And yes, the monsters became panicked again, they ran in the other direction. So, I had to stop using Fire Breath to get ahead of them, again.

I had to create four other walls of fire before I managed to trap those monsters in the ring of fire.

The fire probably wouldn't affect them too much. However, I'm sure, the thick black smoke and lack of oxygen will have a big impact on them.

I'm keeping an eye on the trapped monsters. My Spear, Atre, and Spell are ready to kill the monsters that dare to escape from the ring of fire at any time.

A few minutes passed and not a single monster jumped out of the ring of fire. The monsters were inside and chose to gather within a small area.

Are they planning on creating a wall of meat to protect other monsters?

I don't know and to know the answer, I have to wait.

"Okay, why are you guys here?" I turned around and asked Ruciel and the others using a slightly loud voice.

yes, it's relatively upsetting. I tried to save them but instead, they approached the danger that I wanted to keep away from them.

"We're going to help you, big sis! You're a big sis, right?" Kimi's fox ears twitched after she gave an explanation and questions.

She, along with Alan, Chloe, and Diana, was on alert. The kids once saw me turn into this figure but apparently, they had forgotten about it. As for Diana, it was only natural that she became wary. She never saw me turn into a monster, this was the first time for her.

Ruciel?

The girl made a disgusted expression so I'll ignore her for now.

This situation and the attitude of the girl I love made me sigh deeply. "Yes, I am Eclaite. Now that you're already here, get ready.. Those monsters can come out at any time."
