Anika's explosion magic did not succeed in causing any significant damage to the two monsters that were bounced off. One of the stone hedgehogs stared at the winged tiger casually passing through the battlefield from above.
"Grawr!" The monster that was the strongest among the four siblings roared and rolled up its body as if it were a spiked stone ball.
The spiked stone ball rolled and jumped quickly. The monster used the rebound power of the cave wall to attack the flying tiger.
"Eh! What!? Since when did the hedgehog roll like that! This is no longer an ordinary stone hedgehog, but a stone pangolin hedgehog! Ais, we have to quickly dodge, Vanessa!" Sylvia shouted frantically.
"Franky!" After slashing the monster whose skin was so hard, Martin shouted at his comrade to save the girls.
"Damn!" Franky saw a stone hedgehog that became a ball and was about to attack the girls who were floating in the air.
At first, he was about to cut down the monster that had just been detonated with Anika's magic, but he had to turn back towards the girls. That monster was his target, and the other three monsters were being handled by one person each.
However, right before he could jump high with Gravy's help, the winged tiger saved the day with ease.
Although Elysia was also quite surprised by the unexpected attack from the stone pangolin hedgehog, she didn't need to react like Sylvia. All she did was remind Vanessa of the incoming ball.
Vanessa alone was enough to ward off that. Level 155 winged tiger effortlessly swept away the spiked stone ball with her claws aided by wind and lightning elemental magic.
The Level 118 stone pangolin hedgehog immediately fell like a meteor hitting the ground. Unfortunately, not right to the ground but to a man who was toying with a similar monster, he looked so lazy and detached from teamwork.
Dylan immediately glanced up swiftly at the spiked stone ball that fell towards him. He reflexively slashed through the rock with his spare sword.
It was not a rock fragment or rock splitting in half as a result, but the monster's body was severed in two, and red blood splattered around like a blooming flower.
Dylan quickly avoided the splash of blood at high speed. No one wanted to get dirty with blood.
"Grhaa!" The stone pangolin hedgehog that split in half could only scream in pain. Its last cry before it fell to the ground, completely lifeless.
"Hey! Did you do it on purpose and point that thing at me?" Dylan looked up, questioning the culprit who was found guilty.
"That, it was just a coincidence! Please forgive us." Elysia quickly made an apology. She didn't consider the person below them.
"Yes, father, just a coincidence. It was just a reflex response from Vanessa. You are okay, em, yes, it's safe." Sylvia defended the guilty. No one was hurt, so everything was fine.
"Tch." Dylan clicked his tongue, then he turned his head towards the shoddy monster he was playing with just a moment ago.
He had to vent his frustration on something. Still, he couldn't repay the winged tiger or the human girl who had apologized, along with his daughter's concern. It was better to vent on this monster to blow off some steam.
"Graa!" The three remaining monsters roared with cries of sorrow and wrath because their eldest sibling was dead. These humans had to pay with their lives!
The eyes of the stone pangolin hedgehogs became bloodthirsty. They attacked relying solely on their ferocious instincts, assaulting wildly on a rampage regardless of themselves or their opponent's strength.
Their claws were elongated, and the sharp stone spikes on their backs were the same. With a loud scream of great fury, they charged at the human closest to them.
He glanced briefly at the two other monsters handled by the man with the big shield and the other by the female mage with the blue armor's man.
After that, he counterattacked the monster that continued to attack him non-stop. This monster was so angry. Still, it didn't know what fate awaited that monster just because Dylan was annoyed.
Meanwhile, on a small hill at the end of the cave hall, Elysia and Sylvia jumped down from Vanessa. The two of them took a brief look at the battlefield that had entered the peak, then returned to their duties there.
"Ais, how do we pick this flower?" Sylvia looked closely at the flower that was slightly taller than her height.
"Erm, wait a moment... Ah, we'd better not take it by simply picking flowers in general. Mr. Aayan excitedly said Ashen Fairymoss was such a precious flower. We'll dig it up and pull it out by the roots." Elysia asked Elena for advice before replying to Sylvia.
"Oh, that's a brilliant idea. Did you bring a shovel, Ais?" Sylvia couldn't get a better idea than her friend's suggestion, she fully agreed.
"Uuh, I don't have a shovel. Do you have something like a tough metal that can be used in a similar task?" Elysia awkwardly touched her fingers together.
"Oh, take it easy, I have an idea. Take this, we dig a little and pull this flower." A brilliant idea came as if a lamp had just been turned on. Sylvia took two long silver swords from her Space Bag and handed one to her friend.
Elysia glanced at the sword in her hand. It was a level 35 longsword. The nice sword had been casually and heartlessly turned into a shovel by the girl who was ready to dig.
"Ais, what are you waiting for? Come on help me, we'll pull it out together."
"En."
Elysia immediately came out of her thought to do their job. The two girls dug a little around the grey flower and then returned to the target they were about to pluck.
"Okay, pull it out in 1, 2, 3. Pull it out. Uaah..." Sylvia gave a signal. She and Elysia immediately pulled Ashen Fairymoss together with its roots.
To Sylvia's amazement, the roots were so long that they pulled and moved away 2 meters, 3, 4, and 5 meters, but it still hadn't reached the end.
It was only about 175 centimeters tall, but wasn't this root a little too long? Sylvia started to wonder.
"Ais, let's just cut the roots. It's already a root with five meters long." Sylvia confusedly asked for advice.
"Hm, I think this is fine. We'll pull another 2 meters, and it's done." Elysia replied after confirming using her advanced perception.
"Okay."
Shortly afterward, a whole Ashen Fairymoss with its roots to the end successfully pulled out of the ground.
"Uhh, it's too long, and there is a lot of soil in the roots. Who will keep this flower?" Sylvia glanced at Elysia. She didn't want to keep anything dirty in her [Space Bag].
"Err, I can't keep this in my Space Bag, it only has a capacity of 1x1x1 meter." Elysia smiled slightly and shook her head.
"Wait, what? Your Space Bag only has 1x1x1 meter space? Why not bring a 5x5x5 one? A true adventurer must have the best Space Bag, and it won't be enough with just one, at least twenty or thirty." Like a veteran adventurer, she explained her opinion while showing some Space Bag that she brought.
"Hehe... Since you have already taken out a few Space Bags, please secure this one. You are an adventurer who has a lot of preparation, Lys. Lots of Space Bag in the Space Bag." Elysia smiled happily.
It was difficult for her to put this whole flower into her Space Storage under the guise of her little Space Bag. The plant with this sturdy taproot would not fit, and the pretext of her Space Bag would be wasted.
At least, with the one that belonged to Sylvia, the root at the end only needed to bend a little, and it would fit inside.
"Uh, fine. Take this, I'll give you one. You have to take good care of it. Now, save this flower for me hehe..." Sylvia generously gave a white Space Bag to her friend then put the rest back in her black Space Bag.
"Eh? You were so generous to me, Lys. Did you give me one of your collections? Why don't you want to keep this flower in your Space Bag?" Elysia became a little confused.
"It's okay, this Space Bag is cheap, really. But it's custom made, and this white Space Bag will suit you. Please accept this gift." Sylvia smiled softly, then took her friend's hand and put the Space bag there.
She didn't want to answer about herself not wanting to put things dirty in her Space Bags, not before they were cleaned, but she couldn't clean them with magic because she just didn't know how to use that magic.
Because she didn't want to clean a dirty Space Bag with lots of dirt and soil, she better assign it to her friend by giving one from her collection.
Apart didn't have to bother with cleaning, she could also strengthen her relationship with her friend, 'kill two birds with one stone'.
"En, all right. Then, I can only thank you for the gift Lys." Elysia can only accept the gift that was shoved into her hand. Sylvia was so adamant with it.
After that, she immediately put the entire Ashen Fairymoss into the empty Space Bag and attached it to her accessory belt.
