Chapter 400: Let's Encounter

Tsuvara Kingdom, Vessa Plateau

The time was 8:30 am. After their break at the foot of the Jiritia Mountains ended, Kazane and the others started racing across the Vessa Plateau on Yuuko-nee's Thunder Chariot II; Hippomaru-kun, which was previously in the Mysterious Warehouse, was pulling the carriage.

Since this Thunder Chariot II was being used thanks to synchronization with Kazane's Skills, it had the same shape as Kazane's Thunder Chariot and was larger than the Thunder Chariot that Kazane first obtained.

Naoki was sitting in Thunder Chariot II's coachman's seat, while Kazane and Tatsuo were inside. And both of them were currently sleeping. Furthermore, Yuuko-nee was curled up and sleeping on top of the carriage.

Both Kazane and Yuuko-nee were sleeping to heal their fatigue and absorb natural magical power. This incident wouldn't be resolved simply from catching up to Yumika and the others. Naturally, they would have to confront the mastermind afterwards, so now was the time to save up their power.

Anyway, Kazane was currently sleeping, and as the sounds of her sleep breathing came from inside the carriage, Naoki was extremely troubled. Moreover, Kazane'sDragon Eating Ogre Army Armorwas taken off and set aside; in other words, Kazane was only wearing underwear under her futon.

If she turned over in her sleep a little, the futon might slip off. But right now, Naoki had to be vigilant of the surroundings and control Hippomaru-kun.

Fundamentally, Hippomaru-kun operated almost automatically, but Jinrai said that it seemed to move better when a person was holding the reins and steering it. And from his own experience, Naoki also understood that.

(Uu, I want to look. Uuu, but I have to fulfill my role)

Naoki's conflict continued. He knew this wasn't the time for such a thing, but after staying up all night, Naoki's self-control was slightly off. Or maybe it was as usual.

Mmm

And as Naoki was conflicted, together with Kazane's sleep breathing, he could hear the sound of slipping cloth behind.

(Oooh, seriously? Dangerous.... but the front...)

Something had happened. He understood that. And he could hear further sounds of something gradually slipping. That was likely the sound of the futon falling off. In other words, that meant... perhaps Kazane's underwear figure was uncovered? Naoki was conflicted. Kazane was trusting in Naoki and sleeping. He couldn't betray that expectation. However, wasn't it fine to get a reward? What to do?

Ah, oops. My bra's shoulder strap came off. Up you go.

A voice like that came from behind the conflicted Naoki, and immediately after, there was the sound of rustling. And when he saidEh?and turned around, there was only a round mass of futon. Apparently, Kazane had curled up in the futon and fallen back asleep.

(Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa)

And the lament of Naoki's heart resounded in his brain. Wasn't that a once in a lifetime opportunity? Wasn't that a scene deserving of pressing his brain's REC button and viewing? Naoki shouted that in his mind.

(Ooh, God. Why are you giving me such a trial?! Dammit, dammit!! ....Nn?)

And Naoki shed tears of blood, but something appeared ahead of his line of sight.

What... is that?

It was a cloud of dust. He could see it ahead of them on the plateau. And that cloud of dust looked like it was gradually spreading to the sides. Furthermore, he started hearing a rumbling noise, and the ground seemed to be vibrating. Naoki sensed that a tremendous number of somethings were approaching.

A, Aneki! Danger, something dangerous!

Realizing the identity of the dust in front of him, he panicked and shouted at Kazane behind.

Mu, what? What in the world?

Kazane suddenly raised her body and woke up.

There's a huge cloud of dust in front of us. It seems dangerous. Or rather, that's due to Issenman Buffalos, right?

Muu

After Naoki's words, Kazane also looked ahead. Then Kazane activated her Circlet of Wisdom's Remote Viewing to peep at the beings creating that cloud of dust and repliedYeah, those are Issenman Buffalos.She also grumbled a few words at Naoki.

Rather, couldn't you have looked with your own Remote Viewing?

After Kazane pointed that out, Naoki saidAh.

Aah, that's right. I forgot.

So saying, Naoki also activated the Distant View earrings he was wearing.

Thereupon, in Naoki's mind, he could certainly see the figures of cattle with huge, sharp, protruding horns heading toward them. Dozens of them were running side by side in the front, with considerably long lines of more stretching behind them.

As it is, we'll collide with them. What will we do, Aneki?

After Naoki's words, Kazane pondered. However, she only thought for a slight amount of time before she opened her mouth.

Let's break through.

Kazane answered simply. Naoki's eyes widened.

Are you serious?

It was natural for Naoki to say that. The scene he saw with Remote Viewing was obviously dangerous. But Kazane nodded after Naoki's words.

Since they're coming at us from the front like this, it seems like we'll be caught even if we try to avoid them by going to the left or right. We could temporarily make a U-turn, get some distance, then slip through by flying with Dragonization, but I don't want to waste time or Magic Power right now. If we charge head-on and cut through the herd diagonally, I think we can pass through.

While analyzing the situation, Kazane replied to Naoki.

Moreover, they can't U-turn easily, so we should be able to manage. For that reason, Naoki. Face forward.

Kazane told Naoki that. The battle was about to begin. She had to put on her armor. It was time to change clothes.

Oh, right.

Then Naoki turned to the front, but Kazane glared at Naoki,

You're not planning to activate your Distant View Earrings and look this way, right?

She said that. Like his heart had been seized, Naoki's expression stiffened.

Of, of course not.

Replying like that was the best Naoki could do. He hadn't turned them toward Kazane yet, but the thought had crossed his mind. Acting without being noticed by Kazane'sIntuitionwasn't easy. The likes of Naoki's wicked thinking would be instantly exposed.

Alright!

When Naoki's gaze was gone, Kazane stripped off the Indestructible Futon. Then she called outBerserk Ogre, pleaseto theDragon Eating Ogre Army Armorbeside her.

Thereupon, the armor moved on its own as it stood up and covered Kazane's body; without pause, the metal fittings opened and closed by themselves as it was put on Kazane. It was armor with a fully automatic equipping function. It was convenient, but a little scary to look at. Tatsuo was a little worried that his mother would be eaten by her armor as he watched. By the way, Tatsuo's imagination would become reality if a person who wasn't acknowledged by the armor tried to wear it.

And with her entire body fortified by theDragon Eating Ogre Army Armor, Kazane brought Tatsuo along as she climbed to the roof of the carriage. Up there, Yuuko-nee had already woken up and was staring forward, ready for battle. When her master arrived, she cried out happily.

Nyanyaa

Yeah. I know. This time, I'll borrow Yuuko-nee's power.

Nya

Yuuko-nee happily responded to Kazane's words. Then Kazane also called out to Tatsuo, who had climbed to the roof with her.

I will also borrow Tatsuo's power.

Of course.

Tatsuo nodded after Kazane's words. It seemed he had no doubts about being told that.

So then, Naoki, drive away any that approach the carriage.Crawling Lightningcan handle the front, so be wary of the left and right. Absolutely don't let them hit us!

Yes, yes, understood!

In accordance with Kazane's words, Naoki held the reins with his left hand as he drew the Crystal Dragon magic sword and held it in his right hand. Then he put out the rainbow-colored magic blade. Its length was 3 meters, longer than the usual 2 meters. Since he was using only one sword, Naoki was focusing on increasing its power.

Now then, we'll make contact soon. Hippomaru-kun, produceCrawling Lightningat maximum output!!

Hippomaru-kun increased its speed in accordance with Kazane's instructions. Then, the Black Rock Dragon ram protruding from Hippomaru-kun's chest resonated with the Thunder Chariot, and the carriage as well as Hippomaru-kun were covered with purple lightning.

Furthermore, I'll also deployDevil King's Intimidation!

Kazane spread her arms above the carriage and emittedDevil King's Intimidationat maximum strength. At that same time, there was a sensation that the large dust cloud in front of them wavered for a moment. Although it was slight, it looked like their vigor had decreased.

And now, it's Husband's turn!

Kazane pushed the Rainbow Dragon Ring forward, and a rainbow light was emitted from it. As if it had gained substance, that light started transforming like it was clay into the giant dragonGod Dragon Emperor Naga. Then the greatest attack of the God Dragon Emperor was unleashed.

Husband's Full Burst!!

Lights of the seven prismatic colors were emitted by the countless crystals growing on God Dragon Emperor Naga toward the dust cloud in front of them, and a shock ran through the Issenman Buffalo herd.
