I gave my men cover, and Esther and I approached the range of the Sea Surpent attack.
We worked together to investigate his attack patterns and weaknesses while dodging his tail.
"Kh... oniisama, I wonder if your eyeballs are still tough.If you take a direct hit without a shield, you could die before you heal. "
Got it!
Starting with the enemy's eyeballs, Esther was dodged with a small move, pointing a spear at the scales just beside her.
Shortly after the attack, he was targeted in an unstable position and countered.
"Heat Laser! Hmm. Fire magic attacks can escape into the sea. Meaningless."
Even though Cesar Pennant launched a single-point intensive fire magic attack against Esther....
With just a few scorched eyes on the scale, he sunk his wounds into the sea, avoiding serious injuries from a series of shots.
I know you don't like fire magic, but it seems difficult to inflict fatal wounds in this situation.
If you use widespread fire magic, you might be able to kill them by boiling them... but you can't because the fish near the port of Izumi will die and the fisherman's agari will be drastically reduced.
"Wow!? Gohoggggggggh...."
Esther, are you okay?
"Yes, oniisama! Thank you for your help! Sorry for the inconvenience."
Upgraded, Esther aimed at scaling his enemies with hooked claws cut from the armor of the diamond turtle and ropes made of King Silk Spider....
It is pulled from the difference in body size into the water and pinched to a large extent.
"Don 'mai, don 'mai! Let's move on to the next trial."
I was able to launch the water with water magic and save it... but as far as Esther's struggle is concerned, the physical battle at close range seems to be tough on the Sea Surpent.
"If you can't attack from the outside, you can't attack from the inside like you would in a diamond turtle battle."
Our enemies aren't poisonous, so we can survive for hours.
"Should I cut my lungs and stop breathing?"
But he's an ocean-shaped S-rank monster.
I don't know where the respirator is because it didn't appear in the anatomy.
"You don't have to worry about the temperature in your body, so you can burn it to death... because burning it will reduce the amount of material you can recover"
Poison the blood vessels, kill them, and then detoxify them with potions before retrieving the material?
"That's fine, but I'm still worried about the poison.It would be a hassle to get a complaint from the buyer if there were any left. "
The possibility of a variable-temperature monster is high, so I threw ice into my stomach and stopped my activities...
"No, Cesar Pennant is an S-rank monster.A little temperature change on the boulder won't kill him. "
"Speaking of which... there was a lot of shochu in the item box."
When the monster hunt was over, I was going to give it to Dan and import it into the Kingdom of Quor...
If you use this, you may be able to treat Cesar Pent to acute alcoholism.
"Alcohol in your body can be detoxified in the Cure Poison after his death!"
Alcohol doesn't hurt the body where it's left off.
"It's hard to use alcohol to kill monsters in Yamato Kingdom where food is scarce....."
Better than leaving S-rank monsters in Izumi Harbor like this.
"Oniisama, did you come up with a plan?"
When I finished thinking and approached the Sea Surpent again... Esther called out to me, leaving him in charge.
At the same time as I entered my thinking time, my brother switched to a parry style and was nicking without getting hurt in particular.
"Oh, I'm going in the same pattern as the diamond turtle.Me and you will break into the enemy's body. "
"Sure! We're here for you!"
Let Dan and Ian handle the battle outside... even if they get hurt a little.
Nina is their support and healer.
Marina, who is small and fatally wounded by a single hit, is supported by wind magic from a distance where her tail attacks cannot reach.
Well then, I'll go! Good luck with your lives, everyone. Commander Ian, thank you! "
"Yes, Master. Leave the rest to me!"
After communicating the policy to the members and switching buffs, Esther and I acted separately from them for a while.
External attacks will be reduced somewhat, but there will be no casualties as long as there is nothing left to do with this formation.
"Jink Esther, don't let them eat you!It's not honor or or anything to be a monster shit! "
"Dan-san, it's okay! Worst of all, burn all your guts and your enemies will die."
When I told everyone about this operation... Ian and the others who had been involved in internal warfare were laughing, but Dan, who was acting differently at the time, said nothing.
He, a veteran, didn't seem to have the concept of fighting inside the enemy, claiming to go with him because it was dangerous and difficult to suppress.
I'm glad you're worried about us, but I'm fine, so don't worry about attracting snakes to the surface.
"All right, ready! Esther, let's go!!"
Yes!
With our bodies tied together, we approach the Sea Surpent the same way we did earlier.
They jumped into their mouths to make him drink his last drink, taking care not to be uncomfortable.
