Soon after the Slime Keon became a familiar, and hence a companion, everyone got to know it and got along with it.
”Unii” ”Kyu~♪”
Uni and Keon got along particularly well. The way they played together is so cute, seriously. It’s dangerous. My maternal instincts are awakening, even though I’m a guy.
”Uni~♪” ”Kyupi-!” ”Wha-!?”
Then, Uni got on Keon’s back and rode him. Wh-, what’s this! It really suits them, and in some way, it’s also extremely destructive!
”You guys are too cute!” ”Uni~?” ”Kyupi~?”
Them tilting their heads to the side was so cute, it utterly defeated me. Well, Slimes don’t have necks in the first place, so I’m just talking about the feel.
”Koo~” ”””””Mogu~ mogu~”””””
Kani and the moles were also charming. Now, pull yourself together. Anyhow, we got a new companion, Keon the Slime. And so, we proceeded once again to the back of the cave. With Uni riding on Keon’s back, it followed surprisingly fast as I moved on the mini-excavator. It has a “pon pon” bouncing type of way of moving. Uni was also riding skillfully. Then, along the way, many Living Armours appeared. Seems a lot of equipment was abandoned in this cave. However, how could so much equipment have been discarded on such an underdeveloped island? Could someone who landed on the island have dumped it?
”Unyu~” ”Kyupi~”
”Koo~” ”Ah, they’re weapons.” What came out was of course not moving armour. Swords and axes, as well as spears and hammers, also came to attack us. I guess you call them Living Weapons. Well, whichever it is, it’s not a problem. I swing the bucket of my magic excavator to get rid of them.
”This’s a bit irritating. In that case, Excavator Spin Attack!”
Even the mini-excavator can turn 360 degrees. The Living Armours and the Living Weapons along the way were blown away as we ploughed into them while spinning round and round.
I got the impression that Uni and Keon were a good combination. Keon sent parts of its body flying like bullets to clear away the Living Weapons. Keon seemed to have an abundant amount of magical power, so naturally, its attacks were enhanced. Uni also fired earth magic throwing stones to match. The combination barrage of the two covered all the opponents, not letting them get close. Hmm, they only became friends a short while ago, yet they’re in sync as though they’ve been partners since long ago. Kani’s barriers were also effective as defence. The moles not only dug holes, but also scratched with their claws to provide support. Their cooperation was really good. Let’s keep going steadily at this pace.
”Koo~! Koo~!”
Kani’s cries became louder and louder. Maybe the mana’s reaction is getting stronger.
Then we came to a place where there was a large pile of equipment.
”Are these all discarded equipment?” ”Uni?” ”Kyui~?” ”Koo~?” ”Mogu?” ”Mogu mogu?” ”Mogyu?” ”Mogu-?” ”Mo~gu~?”
Everyone unconsciously let out questioning voices. And then everyone who came with also had questioning expressions too. However, it truly is a lot. This mountain alone is quite a lolt. Holding onto those thoughts, we tried to move on, but then the pile of equipment that we thought was abandoned showed signs of moving.
”Oi oi, not this one too.”
Then the mountain of equipment began to coalesce and changed shape as though it had a will of its own.
”GuooOooOoooooOoooo!”
”Kyupi-!?” ”Unyu!” ”Koo~! Koo~!” ”””””Mogu~!”””””
From the mountain of equipment, a large, humanoid body was formed. I think this guy can be considered a golem of sorts. Like the Asphalt Golem, a golem is a life-form containing will that has become humanoid from a collection of certain objects. That’s why they’re often named after the thing they were made of. The one we met outside was made of asphalt, so it was probably called an Asphalt Golem. Now, if I were to name this guy, it’d probably be called an Armed Golem. As I was thinking so, the Armed Golem fired the weapons that made up its body and shot first.
”But that’s too bad, since I’ve got reliable companions.”
The golem’s attacks were all blocked by the barrier Kani made.
”This place is big. If he’s giant, then we’ll also go with the large excavator! Everyone!” ”Uni-!” ”Kyupi~♪” ”Koo~!” ”””””Mogu- mogu~!”””””
I changed the excavator to its large size, and everyone got in at once.
Well, even with this, the opponent is bigger. But battles aren’t just about being big. Come, I’ll thoroughly show you the power of heavy construction equipment!
