Chapter 70: What The Hell Is Going On…?!

-----

When Emeraldine finished her bathroom and we had breakfast, we quickly marched into the forest at a high speed. We had to quickly cross this boring forest and get to the duchy. We already planned that we were going to pretend to be goody-two-shoe normies for a change of pace. Partner wanted to see a city without lurking at night, and I agreed with her. We should also do it in order to gain more knowledge about this world's society and how everything is structured.

We won't spend our entire lifetimes there, or something, just a one-day or two-day trip around, and that's it. Mostly, I just want to see if they got any restaurants or food stalls to eat the endemic food of this world that is not just stew or grilled meat. I don't even feel hunger, but I am still gluttonous because eating is fun, I have to admit it, so I want to see if there is any noodles, rice, or something. Hell, even freshly baked bread, cheese, and ham is fine.

As we walked through the forest at a moderate speed, I sent Raven to go look for anything ahead, and if he finds something, he'll rush back and alert us.

"Look, Maria, a mushroom,"

Emeraldine saw a small family of mushrooms growing in the roots of a tree, and I used [Analyze] on them.

…

[Para-Para Mushroom (Quality: C+ Grade)]

Yellow-colored mushrooms which drain nutrients from the roots of trees causing the trees to stop making fruits. They're specially delicious when fried but need to be well cooked; otherwise, their paralyzing poison might remain within them.

An item that can be used in Alchemy to make Paralyzing Poison, Paralyzing Poison Antidote, and more.

…

[Yumi Mushroom (Quality: D Grade)]

Purple-colored mushrooms with white stripes. They are poisonous and deadly and shouldn't be consumed by any means. They can be dried and then fermented into a strong poisonous toxin that is often coated in weapons. It can also make for a great disinfectant due to the dissolving effects of the poison extraction.

…

[Gaparumu Mushroom (Quality: F Grade)]

A small Living Mushroom that is yet to become a Mushroom Monster. At this stage, it cannot move, and it drains nutrients from the soil and the roots of trees. It is considered a cheap delicacy before becoming an adult. This is because the mushroom has yet to produce poisonous spores and can be safely eaten after being cooked.

…

Wow, it feels like I am playing an Atelier game.

"Hmm, these ones are tasty," Said Emeraldine as she looked at them.

"You know a lot about this stuff. It must be the [Foraging] Skill, right?"

"Indeed, it built up after I lived around the forests for some time. You see… Sometimes I didn't have enough money to buy food, so I just gathered what nature could offer… Haha…" She chuckled.

"Make sure not to eat the purple one though. That one could kill you," I said.

"Eh?! Is it? I thought it was edible. It looks just like the ones I used to eat…." She said.

"Maybe it is similar, but it is not the same. See? I just saved your life there- Eh?"

"CRAA!"

Raven suddenly came flying at us rapidly before landing on the ground. It looked at me as its soul connected to me through a phantasmal force, and I saw what it saw, two very weird kids running away from a giant wolf chimera thingy.

Oh boy, what the heck?

Hahhhh…

Alright, time to play hero once more. Not that I dislike it… That wolf looks like a good sack of EXP anyways.

"We need to get there quickly though… Hmm…"

I looked at Lucifer, who was silently looking at me.

"What?"

"Hmmm…"

…

"Wait! This… you can't do this!" Lucifer cried as he was being placed on a large catapult I made using [Shadow Manipulation] and [Materialization].

The catapult itself was also my own body which I shapeshifted. I am pretty amazing, aren't I? It was very rough, but it should be able to launch something very fast, very quickly. Plus, it only took 30 seconds to make.

Thank you, thank you… I am a genius, I know.

"Hold on!" He cried out.

"Calm down, turn into a dragon, and you'll be fine," I said.

"WAIT!"

"And there you go!"

"I'll never forget thisssss…!" He shouted, his voice trailing off the farther he went.

BOOOMMM!!!

And he was sent through the skies.

SPLASH!

Oh, it seems like he hit something. Sweet.

I quickly expanded my shadows and let everyone inside,

FLAAAAASSSH!

"Maria! Did you have to throw me like a ball here?!"

I heard Lucifer roar at me, which I answered quite calmly.

"Sorry! I was testing my Shadow Catapult! It is pretty fun, but goddamn, it drains MP like crazy,"

I flew towards the direction that Raven was pointing me at as the first thing I found was an ugly wolf wearing a skull on its face, trying to munch on a little unconscious boy.

"Come here, EXP bag!"

"WAARGH?!"

I expanded my shadows into tentacles and wrapped them around his limbs, pulling him off of the ground and hitting its body against the mud several times.

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

"AWRROOO…!"

It cried in agony.

"What do we have here… Oh! These are kids?!"

I let everyone outside, and Emeraldine noticed the girl that Lucifer had just saved. He fell onto a big purple slime that was doing something pretty weird to her… Let's not go into any further details. This is not an R-18 story, ladies and gentlemen.

"Are you okay? Oh dear, look at your wounds… I'll heal you right away!" Emeraldine said, as she ran towards the girl in the ground, who was trembling as if she had gone through a horrifying experience.

And suddenly, the wolf chimera began to scream angrily with me from within a black box covering its head.

"W-Who are you?! How dare you interrupt my hunt! You thieves! Don't you dare take away my items from me!" He shouted.

"Items? Are you calling two little kids as items? And who the heck are you? I don't even know you,"

"I would say the same!"
