"That's not fair!" I cried spontaneously.

"Unfair?" asked Hacquetia.

"Ah!"

Hacquetia's question made me aware of something. Just now I fought against humans, just now I had the will to kill humans.

Isn't that was horrible?

Maybe yes, maybe no. 

But, it's not that I don't want to kill someone. I'll kill someone if it's necessary. It's just that, I just don't want to kill someone carelessly.

Maybe it's cowardly, naïve, and so on but this is who I am.

I saw the man's body, his head, and a pool of blood and then I gulped.

I felt uncomfortable and... I can think of killing humans later. Of course, the jerk wasn't included in here.

Definitely, I'll kill him.

And if I recall it again, this is the first time I've seriously thought about my feelings about killing humans.

"Miss! Don't go daydreaming! This fight is not over!" Rose shouted.

And it wakes me up from my daydreaming. 

I shook my head and I moved my body, I joined the Bouquet Squad to fight against the evil adventurers, who weren't affected by my mist. And I could tell, our fight was quite fierce. 

For all the Time I fight, I stayed in a defensive stance until Rose, Marigold, or Hacquetia managed to defeat or kill the adventurer I was fighting.

I want to defeat the adventures by making them faint but I can't do it. And on the other side, I can kill them but I didn't want to do it.

So, I seek help from Bouquet Squad.

In the end, we managed to defeat all those evil adventurers.

"Quick! Send someone for reinforcement!" A knight shouted.

And not long after that, five knights used teleportation crystals. A bright light was created and those knights disappeared.

A second or two later, an episode happened.

Rumble! Rumble!

The earthquake appeared so suddenly and became stronger for each second that passed! The ground cracked and split!

Some people who fall asleep because of my mist are so unlucky. They fall into the cracks that appeared. The people around them didn't manage to save them.

Then, shortly after the earthquake appeared, tens of thorny roots came out from within the cracks. 

The thorny roots that appeared near the Teleportation Crystal instantly formed a dome that looked so sturdy! In a short period, they managed to secure and protect the Dungeon's exit.

Once again, we are being trapped!

But luckily, we manage to send five people out before this disaster happened. If we hadn't done that, I'm sure we would have had a problem opening that thorny root dome.

And that's right, the other roots are commencing to attack us! They can move like a snake or a whip. And I need to say, they're deadly.

A big, thorny root came to pierce my body. I intended to dodge but before I could do it, Marigold appeared in front of me.

"[Valiant Shield]"

Clang!

Marigold blocked that thorny root. And yes, I could confirm that thorny root was powerful when I saw the Cat-kin shifting backward by half a meter.

"[Giant Slash]" shouted Rose who appeared abruptly.

The red-haired woman cut through the thorny root with a single strike, as if she was cutting butter with a hot knife.

"Move to the west! We will join Sir Folcion," Rose ordered.

Bouquet Squad only gave a nod before they began to walk as instructed.

And for the next few dozen minutes, the red-haired woman cut off the thorny roots that attacked us. While The Cat-kin was busy deflecting a few big thorny roots that came at us. 

They paved the way for us.

And of course, me, Hacquetia, Clematis, and Sakura didn't stay silent.

Using Rot Saber, I cut through medium-sized roots that tried to pierce my body. And yes, I don't use the Silver Spear. 

The spear had poor compatibility with these thorny roots.

Hacquetia protects us — me, Clematis, and Sakura — from the assault of thorny roots that appear in our blind spots and from inside the ground.

Clematis used Ice Magic to freeze a few thorny roots. She also made several Ice Walls that repeatedly saved us from the thorny roots that came attacking us simultaneously.

The last one is Sakura. The pink-haired girl used the Buff Spell to strengthen us and her Healing Magic continually healed us.

Then, time passed. 

I moved my head to look at the jerk after we joined the adventurers and knights under Folcion. 

"He's really become a monster now," I commented and some Bouquet Squad members glanced at me.

In there, the giant Plant-type Monsters were raging. The monster easily deals with dozens of Adventurers.

The ten-meter tall monster moved dozens of thorny roots in his body with great mastery to attack adventurers.

At the same time, the human part that was similar to the jerk constantly used Dark Magic to defend himself. And every once in a while, he would launch a dozen black balls as big as human heads at adventurers.

On the other hand, adventurers get into hardship defending themselves and giving counterattacks. They were overwhelmed by the jerk's strength.

In Ark Fantasy Online, a low-level player can still do damage to the Boss Monster by attacking any parts of the monster's body. 

But right now, even though I've already destroyed a dozen thorny roots, I feel like I'm not giving any damage to the jerk!

Fuck!

How do I defeat him!?

If I use Ark Fantasy Online as a reference, I know extremely well that I can't defeat that monster. The same thing will happen even if I get help from Rose and the others.

Gigantes Brocchinia Reducta.

Although the monster was only around level 40, it was a Boss Monster, it was at the top line of the monster classification, much stronger than Normal, Rare, Unique, Sub Boss, or Mid Boss Monsters.

Boss monsters were fifty times stronger than Normal Monsters at the same level. 

And yes, it was a disaster.

To defeat a Boss Monster, normally, players needed fifty people who joined in a Raid Party. 

And not only that, every Raid Party member — at the minimum — had to be on the same level as the Boss Monster they faced.

These fifty Players must also be equipped with the best equipment they can get.

Bitter to say, even though a Raid Party managed to meet all of those conditions, they only had a sixty percent chance of killing the Boss Monster.

And right now, I have a suspicion. Do the people in here meet the requirements I thought earlier?

I scanned the people here.

The knights look promising. But on the other hand, the adventurers gave me half-and-half. And much worse. Since I don't know all of them, I don't know how much strength they have.

I'm not sure we can win.

Truly bitter to say, the only thing I can do is make a wist and keel destroy the thorny roots that keep coming to kill me.

Why don't I try to attack the jerk?

First, the bastard had a large body with dozens of thorny roots as big as a human body. I will die if I get too close.

Two, I don't have Arte, Spells, or Skills that have a Giant Killing effect.

Three, the Weapons and Armor I used couldn't be declared good.

Fourth... "[Appraisal]"

That monster or that jerk is extremely strong!

Once again, I'll die if I'm being reckless.

"You certainly take your time to come and see me, my daughter," he said while looking at me.

The words spoken by the jerk stopped this fight for a moment and left people confused.

With hatred, I took a step forward and shouted. "Shut up! Where are Kimi and Ruciel!"

People look at me curiously but I ignore them. There's something more important than their probing gaze.

"They're here," said the jerk, who then opened up a part of the thorny roots that became his feet.

There, in a cage made of tree branches, Kimi and Ruciel were still fast asleep.

"Give them back to me!"

"As I said, I won't give them to you. But, you can take them if you can do it."

The jerk raised his left arm. The thorny roots attacked again and this battle continued.

The knights and adventurers showed their abilities again.

"Give them to me and I'll tell you how to make Potions to cure the Monster Soul Transmutation."

"Hmm... It's quite shocking. You don't usually make wise decisions. You know you can't win that's why you're negotiating. It was a good decision."

"Stop insulting me and give me your answer! Yes or no!"

"No!" He said. At the same time, hundreds of thorny roots moved to create a wall. The tip of each of those roots is ready to pierce us.

"Vanguard put up the defense! Mage use Mana Shield!" Folcion shouted to give the order.

The men under his orders moved as quickly as possible to carry out the order.

The jerk who saw all of it made a thin smile. He then said, "Now my daughter. Your attempt to negotiate with me is futile. I will know how to make that Potion after I catch you and talk to you. More than that, I've decided to kill everyone here."

As he stop talking, a huge wave made of thorny roots came to kill us.

Clang! Crash! Crack!

The Mana Shield made by the Mages managed to stop the waves of thorny roots. However, at the same time, that blue shield of light began to crack. 

"I'm going to kill you jerk!" I screamed, filled with hatred.

"You're so weak and I'm sure you won't be able to do it. But I'm interested to see you try it. So, try my daughter, try to kill me."

"I'll do it!"

With an overflowing killing intent, I ran up to the jerk.
