Re Istode : Things that kitsune girl do in another world

The Plant-type Monsters that surrounded me were not strong. That's why I can beat them alone and quickly.

I ran towards the eastern settlement leaving behind the monster's corpses. I want to save Kimi and Ruciel.

From the distance, as I ran, I saw one huge Plant-type Monster that rampaged and destroyed the settlement.

Gigantes Brocchinia Reducta.

That name instantly popped into my head after I observed the huge monster that was also the real body of the jerk?

I'm not sure but maybe, the jerk's words were true.

Gigantes Brocchinia Reducta in the eastern settlement has differences from Gigantes Brocchinia Reducta that became the Main Boss of the first floor of the Foltian Great Dungeon.

The monster's original form resembled that of a squid. The monster had tens of thorny roots of various sizes that became legs. The monster's main body was similar to a Rafflesia with the center of the flower being a circle mouth filled with sharp teeth.

It was the true form of Gigantes Brocchinia Reducta. But now, its form has a human figure - from the waist up - adorning the center of the flower. And yes, that human figure looks like the jerk or maybe it's the jerk itself.

Not only the human figure, but the monster also had a pair of wings made of tree branches with dense leaves and beautiful bell-shaped large flowers.

The monster, the jerk looks strong.

And never did I expect, Monster Soul Transmutation could provide such a drastic change.

"Damn it! Combination of the strength of Main Boss and his strength as a B-Rank Adventurer! How do I kill him!?"

I thought he was dead! And I never think that he'd become a monster like that!

If I had known something like this will occur, I wouldn't have held back from eating monster meat and Magic Stones in front of Kimi and everyone else.

"I messed up!!"

I regret it, extremely regret it! And I know! Regretting the past is a big waste of time.

The only way I could think of defeating the jerk was to ask for help from the other Adventurers. I'll tell them the monster's weakness and the jerk's ability. Then we will kill him for good.

With those two things, I'm sure, I can win against him. And not to forget, I had to make a plan to save Kimi and Ruciel.

But, what kind of plan should I make?

As I was confused about that, I saw Ellis, Alan, Chloe, and a group of people running away from the settlement.

"Miss Ellis! Alan! Chloe!"

Three people and two men I didn't know separated themselves from the group of people. They approach me.

"Sis Eclaite!"

"Miss Eclaite!"

"Did you find Kimi, sis Eclaite?"

"Yes, but right now, Kimi and Ruciel are in the settlement," I informed Chole and then I look at Ellis. "Miss Ellis, can you tell me the situation in the settlement?"

"The situation in there is quite bad. Some parties under the orders of Sir Folcion try to defeat the monsters and dozens of evil adventurers. We don't know whether they can win given the number of monsters that attack settlements."

I nodded at it. I was relieved to learn that there is adventurers who had the intention to fight the jerk and monsters under his control.

Well, maybe they didn't know that the jerk was the mastermind behind this chaos.

"Then, why did you guys run here?"

"We don't want to be a burden. So we escaped."

"Escape? Here? Why don't you guys use Teleportation Crystals?"

"Some powerful evil adventurers guard the Teleportation Crystal. They killed anyone who wanted to go out and come to the Dungeon. That's why we escaped to this direction." Ellis gave me an explanation.

"But there is a barrier blocking your path. Do you guys have a plan to deal with that barrier?"

"The Black Dome Barrier won't be a problem for us. Destroying it is an easy task," replied a man to the left of Ellis.

"Unfortunately, this Barrier is not the Black Dome Barrier but rather the Barrier of Dark Night. This barrier is five times stronger than the Black Dome Barrier."

The explanation I uttered made Ellis and the two men open their eyes wide. While the kids make a confused expression.

"How do you know that?" Ellis asked.

"Because the barrier is formed from the ground, not from the sky."

Ellis took a deep breath and then look at the man on her left side. "David, what should we do?"

"We can try to destroy a small part of this Barrier with raw strength. I'm sure the Magic Tools we owned can do just that."

"If you want to destroy a part of this barrier. You should look for one of the eight Magic Circles that became pillars of this barrier. The part of the barrier that lost the Magic Circle will become fragile and easy to destroy."

"Can we trust this information?" asked the man on Ellis' right side.

"Miss Eclaite has no reason to lie to us." Ellis defended me. At the same time, she gave the man a sharp look.

I sighed and looked at Chloe and Alan. "Stay together with miss Ellis, okay?"

They didn't say anything and just nodded.

"Once again, please take care of them, Miss Ellis."

"Of course, and you don't want to come with us?"

"No, I have to go to the settlement."

"To the settlement! That was a bad decision, Miss Eclaite. That place is dangerous!"

"I know but I have to go. Kimi and Ruciel were there. Besides, I have to kill that monster."

Ellis was silent while Chloe and Alan uttered, "be careful, sis Eclaite."

I rubbed their heads before I walked away. A few steps later, Ellis says, "I'll wait for you, Miss Eclaite! The goddess of light will protect you!"

"I'll be back!" I turned around to give a reply. Then, I ran.

A few minutes passed and finally, I reached the north gate of the eastern settlement.

Chaos.

The word instantly popped into my head as I looked at the scene inside the northern settlement.

Most of the buildings were burned and destroyed. Large flames gave a red color while a thick fog gave a black color.

The symphony of battle was made of the sound of clashing metal, different types of screams, the sound of explosion after an explosion caused by Spells, and the sound of cursing.

For the scent!

"Oh no!" I shouted and activated Smell Blocker.

The scent of monster blood that appeared suddenly and that was so pungent almost took away my sanity!

Before the scent of the monster's blood came, for a moment, I smelled the delicious scent of burning meat, the horrible stench of innards and various kinds of liquids, and the piercing smell that I suspected came from a powerful poison.

As for the things I see...

The battle that never stops, dozens of Spells that appear and disappear, pieces of human and monster bodies, corpses in terrible conditions, and so on.

This was chaos and I didn't hesitate to dive into it to look for Kimi and Ruciel.

This mission to search for them was so problematic because I couldn't rely on my sense of smell and only relied on my hearing and vision. 

But then, a thought came to my mind.

The jerk takes Kimi and Ruciel hostage. So, he must have held them close to him. That means I only need to confront the jerk to find Kimi and Ruciel.

So, I ran up to the jerk. But unfortunately, monsters kept popping up to hinder and stop my steps.

"[Crimson Impale]"

My Silver Spear pierced through the head of a Leaf Hound. I managed to defeat one monster but the other five monsters approached me quickly.

"I'm tired of this and this is so annoying!"

Approaching the jerk wasn't as easy as I thought.

I'm stuck here, in the middle of the settlement while the jerk who is rampaging and fighting against the adventurers is on the outer side of the western part of the settlement.

"Get out of my way you damn monsters! [Wind Cannon]"

Two monsters, Peshrooms, were thrown. A Leaf Bear and a Leaf Hound approached me after they dodged my Spell.

"Bark! Bark!"

I moved my body to avoid Leaf Hound A that jumped at me with an open wide mouth. A moment later I moved my arm. "[Flash Swing]"

My Silver Spear whirled to cut the neck and stomach of the Leaf Hound B that cane to me after Leaf Hound A.

I didn't stop my movement and I threw my spear at Leaf Hound A that was making a U-turn.

The spear managed to pierce the monster's chest and nail it to the ground.

"Rawr!"

I bend my body down to dodge the Leaf Bear's claws.

As quickly as possible, I unsheathed Rot Saber then took one step forward, approaching the bear monster.

"[Cross Slash]"

Blood flowed after I tore the Leaf Bear's stomach.

"RAWR!"

The monster went berserk. Quickly, it launched blind attacks. Every attack it made was so fast and deadly.

If I were the one I used to be in the past, I'm sure I'd die because of those attacks.

But now, I'm different, I've grown strong. I dodged that blind attacks while giving counterattacks.

Within moments, the Leaf Bear's two arms that filled with cuts ended up rotting completely. Then, the monster's right arm fell off just like that as it tried to cut me off using its claws.

An opportunity appeared and I don't throw it away. I stepped closer to the Leaf Bear and swung the Rot Saber to cut its neck.

A moment later, the monster died.

"I finally managed to defeat all the monsters in this place."

I voiced that words but then, as if reality was joking with me, seven other monsters emerged from inside the alley. And it was clear that they wanted to kill me.

"I'm so unlucky!"

I do prepare myself to confront the approaching monsters, I'm ready to kill them. However...

"[Ice Binding]"

Shortly after the sound was heard. The ground beneath the monsters froze. Ice appeared in an instant to freeze the monsters' legs and stop them in the place.

Flashes of golden light and the figure of a woman appeared so suddenly.

Then, in an instant, the monsters became pieces of meat.

"What are you doing here! Have you not heard the command given by Sir Folcion?"

I don't know why this red-haired woman who appeared so suddenly scolded me just like that.

Shouldn't she introduce herself first?
