SPEAR MASTER AND THE BLACK CAT CHAPTER 50

Fiftieth Episode~ Pleasure of Cooperation

“Again! Everyone, get ready!”

“”Roger!””

All of crimson tiger responds to Sarah’s commanding voice .

Everyone attacks the drake together .

Their movements are unified as well as their words .

As expected of the B rank clan, 【Tempest of Crimson Tiger】

Rollo and I watch their cooperative movements and act carefully .

We contribute attacks that do not interfere .

After defeating the drakes for several hours, the sun has already set .

As you would expect, all the members of crimson tiger are beginning to show signs of fatigue .

However, there is another magic essence reaction there .

Moreover, there are multiple .

“Again?”

Sarah’s forehead creases and she has a loathing expression .

“It looks like it . ”

In the direction Lushell points, a swarm of long-armed ants appear .

Moreover, small two headed dragons appear soon after .

“Ants and dragons? It can’t be helped . Everyone, go all out . ”

“Butch, you’re tired so take a pill . ”

“I’m fine . As for the captain, if you’re tired why don’t you drink a stamina restoration potion?”

“Haha, you’re saying that? I’m all right . ”

She who has been fighting for a long time does not disrupt her confident behavior .

It seems they will be okay for a while longer .

While I admire them, I turn my attention to the main monster .

I look at an ant with long arms .

This is my first time seeing the small dragon .

The two heads of the dragon are extending from slim necks . Its scales are pale .

When I observe it, the small dragon and the swarm of ants begin to fight .

They are like cats and dogs, the fight between the monsters is strange .

For a long time…I follow the fight between the dragons and ants .

The ants and dragons that wander away from the war target us .

There are five ants and two small dragons .

“Here they come . There are five long armed ants, and two small sonic bang dragons . ”

Sarah points her long curved swords in the direction of the monsters .

The name of the two-headed dragon seems to be sonic bang .

“Well then, I will-”

Belize raises her bow, nocks an arrow, and fires .

The arrow whistles through the air, piercing the ant’s eyes one after another, and striking the thin necks of the dragons .

Amazing…she is more than a pair of tits .

I can tell that the Elf Belize’s archery is at a considerable level .

However, melon-san’s big breasts seem obstructive when using a bow and arrow . [ED: Holy… Author you need to get laid or something… . ]

The breasts behind the red leather armor…

“Still, we have a long way to go . It’s our turn now . ”

Lushell talks casually .

As an example of her composure, Belize winks while she fires her bow and arrow .

Lushell being a magic user holds out a long staff in front of her chest .

She raises the big staff in one hand and closes one eye .

Her other hand moves to grasp the large staff as support .

I confirm with magic observing eye .

Lushell is manipulating mana .

I can see mana is being transmitted into the staff from both of her arms .

She does not seem to be using an aria .

When the blue jewel at the end of the staff starts to shine, the wooden claw like branches shrink back so the blue jewel may be grasped . Countless blue particles come from the jewel and expand, the particles gather right above and form a big pointed icicle .

“Be smashed by ice . ”

The pointed icicles are produced continuously and they fly at the ants .

One by one, the glistening icicles, wider than five centimeters, pierce through the abdomens of the ants .

The ants pierced by the sharp icicles stop moving .

The ants, which continue receiving the ice magic, become frozen white ice statues in no time .

The icicles also hit the other two ants, dulling their movements .

The heads of the slowed ants are pierced through by arrows and they stop moving .

The long armed ants are wiped out by Lushell’s magic and Belize’s bow .

However, the small dragons are still there .

“The dragons seem to be resistant . ”

Like Lushell said, the icicles hit the small two headed dragons but are being deflected by their pale scales .

The ice system does not seem to work on those blue scales .

On the other hand, a lot of arrows are stuck in them .

“Let’s kill each dragon . ”

Sarah declares her instruction with those few words .

She is already running towards the sonic bangs with a bent forward posture and her two swords . (TL: So, like that one kid on the playground who watched too much Naruto and thought running like that would be cool . )

“Roger!”

The members of Tempest of Crimson Tiger all obey Sarah’s command .

Butch follows up on Sarah’s attack and delivers a blow to the body of the sonic bang . Belize fires arrows from her bow as well .

Lushell also releases sharp icicles from her large staff .

However, the ice magic does not work on the blue scales .

Lushell stops attacking with her large staff .

I participate as well, undaunted . I aim for the small legs .

Timing my attack in cooperation with Sarah and Butch, I extend the black spear and drill into the spot already injured by the sword and ax .

Once one leg is cut off, and the sonic bang loses its balance . At that moment, Rollo sticks her bone sword into it’s small neck .

Piercing through the head, one of the necks hangs loose, unmoving .

However, the sonic bang dragon has a second head which raises a sound similar to a scream .

It can make an awfully high-pitched sound despite it being small .

The roaring reverberates as Rollo retracts her feeler and sneaks around the back of the sonic bang, preparing for the next attack .

However, despite having its leg destroyed and losing its balance, the small dragon seems fine . Turning its remaining head around, it turns its body around quickly .

The sonic bang opens its mouth towards Rollo and roars, a shock wave is thrown out .

Rollo receives the shock wave and rolls back once .

She collapses with her stomach exposed .

“Rollo!”

I shout her name, but she is okay .

Rollo extended her feels as she fell to absorb the shock .

The sonic bang opens its mouth again .

“Show me your back will you, good-bye-”

The moment Sarah says good-bye, mana circulates in her arms . Her long swords warp and red hair grows out from her arms . The muscles of each arm swell and they become gigantic .

Her hair is bushy too .

Using both arms the “Attack skill” called “Quadruped Strike” is delivered, blowing away the small dragon’s skull . [ED: @TL Changed text and raw removed . ]

It is amazing no matter how many times I see it .

Seeing it up-close, her arms and long-swords become larger .

Is the sword special too? Everything has already returned to it’s original size .

Her gigantic arms were covered in red hair and her agility seemed to increase as well .

So much so that her arms became blurred .

The four-sword slash of the curved long swords .

The wound is terrible because it is caused by four simultaneous sword slashes .

The slashing attack that blew away the drake’s head seems to be a technique from a similar skill system .

On the other hand, Butch attacks the remaining sonic bang on his own .

The simultaneous attacks of the two heads are deflected by the large ax . He used the broadax like a shield to defend against the shockwaves from the sonic bang’s mouths .

As though responding there, Belize hits the eyes of the small dragon with arrows .

There are two heads, so a total of four arrows find their marks .

Her bow skills are amazing . The dragon can no longer pick a target so it releases shock waves and roars in random directions .

Then, a magic that looks like thunder magic smashes into the small dragon .

Two thin yellow flashes of light, three, they all land direct hits on the sonic bang-

The sonic bang seems to have become weakened, trembling, but still alive .

However, its movements are noticeably slowed .

Butch makes use of his strength and delivers an attack with his broadax, easily cutting through the pale scales into the flesh beneath .

His movements are like a baseball player striking a home run .

Seeing the attack with the broadax, I am reminded of Raguren .

Still, I never heard an aria but Lushell made lightning fall from the sky .

Even if I think such a thing, it started with Sarah’s three-stranded slashing attack .

Butch’s attacks continue to happen .

Butch jumps- swinging his broadax from the sky .

A helm splitting type skill .

The thin wings are completely shattered and twisted by the fierce blow of the ax skill and seem to be torn off .

Following up on Butch’s broadax skill, Lushell continues dropping down lightning magic . The scales are blown off and its flesh roasted, causing a smell to rise .

The small dragon’s entire body is trembling, seeming to be caused by the numbness .

I see . That lightning magic was a scroll .

There is a sheet of paper attached to a belt over Lushell’s head .

The paper is thick . It looks like a bound book and there is a lot of paper .

A piece of paper is ripped from the magic book . After being thrown, the paper becomes a thunderbolt .

Then Belize fires am arrow from a tightly-strung bow which pierces through the scales into two sections of burning dragon flesh .

The sonic bang has survived until now…

It looks pitiful under everyone’s concentrated attacks .

The blind sonic bang is full of openings .

Late to the party, Rollo also attacks the small dragon and extends a feeler bone sword .

The bone sword splits an arrow in half driving even deeper past the eye into the head of the dragon .

I attack as well . My foot firmly on the ground, power flows through my twisting waist, and I throw out my arm in a <thrust> .

The twisting black spear drills into the small dragon, penetrating deep .

Again, everyone continues to attack .

The small dragon is unable to run away, and it cannot even scream .

In an instant, it becomes scraps of flesh .

Complete overkill .

The dragons and ants fighting seem to have stopped and there are no signs of dragons or ants in the immediate area .

First team game . This is considerably easy .

The surroundings are open as well . Cooperation is fun .

Rollo’s cooperation is interesting too, still a different kind of fun .

“Yosh . I don’t see any more enemies in the area . Were all the ants and dragons springing up around here cleared up… Strip them of their materials but leave them here, we can collect them later . ”

“That’s right . Like the captain said, there are no more “signs” coming from the left side . There seem to still be wyverns in the sky though…”

Lushell seems to have a presence detection skill, or can use search magic .

“As one would expect, if it’s that distance, I don’t know if even my bow could reach…”

“Anywhere is fine as long as I can swing my ax around, I trust the captain’s judgement . ”

“Yeah…”

Then, waiting for my opinion, Sarah turns her eyes to me .

Making eye contact, I nod lightly .

It is true, I can only feel magic essence signs from the sky .

Same for pheromone touch .

Everyone’s faces are weary with fatigue .

So, should we take a break?

I try to suggest it .

“…seeing everyone’s faces, how about you take a break?”

“Yeah . Let’s take a break for a little . Lushell, takes mana restoration potion with a high concentration . Everyone including me, let’s take stamina restoration pills and potions . ”

Everyone nods to Sarah’s words, and medicine is removed from each person’s waist belt, brought to their mouths and drank .

I do not take a potion, but I eat jerky since I feel hungry .

I give Rollo some too .

“Now, there are no monsters in this area, so we can take a quick break here before returning to the metastasis formation . The day has also become dark . I am worried about the battle between the wyverns and imperial guard ants . They are both ‘powerful enemies . '”

“”Roger . ””

I reply as well .

“Understood . ”

“Nya . ”

“Fufu, Rollo-chan is too cute . Are you answering me?”

“N, Nyaa . ”

After calling out to say 『Let’s gyo back fast, nya』 Rollo jumps to my shoulder and claps my shoulder with a *pap*

“Maa, surprising . You come to a ‘serious decision’ despite being so cute . This child has a good head . ”

“Surely that’s…my familiar is well-informed, but this is my first time seeing a superior and cute ‘familiar’ like Rollo . ”

“Rollo-chan wants to hurry too . Let’s go . ”

Like this, we return to the metastasis formation together .

I can see the bright metastasis formation .

There are magic lights floating in many places and the ground is lit up by the magic formation carved into it .

It is slightly dazzling .

It shows the state of the adventurers fighting the long-armed ants in such dazzling light .

Oh, the fight seems to be over .

However, the center of the protective wall is gone .

It seems to have been caught up in the war between the wyverns and imperial ants, crushed and broken without leaving a trace .

The center is almost completely empty without a place to hide .

Then, the adventurers that have finished fighting the longed armed ants return .

“Tempest of Crimson Tiger . You’re returning?”

“As one would expect, they seem to have finished dealing with the drakes . ”

The adventurers have expressions of admirations as they whisper to one another .

Then, the commander woman with the large staff on her back approaches .

“You killed those drakes? As expected, you all should be the next called A rank . Tempest of Crimson Tiger-san…n? With are you together with that D rank…”

While the commander woman is in the middle of talking, she notices I am with the Tempest of Crimson Tiger and acts doubtful .

“N? It was precisely because of Shuya’s help that we were able to wipe out the drakes, sonic bangs, and ants so quickly?”

Sarah speaks out in my defense .

“Really? Why are you asking with that face? Shuya is an expert . ”

Belize-san’s eyes sharpen and she becomes angry .

“Surely . His physical ability was greater than most beastmen . What was most surprising, without communicating with us, he was able to join our cooperation flawlessly . Without ranking or confirming tactics . Something like that isn’t so easy to do . ”

Butch-san raises his voice and praises me .

It is nice to be recognized as an adventurer .

“Eeh, that’s right . Eris has a bad habit of judging people by their ranks . 【Crimson Tiger’s Tempest】 establishes claim on Shuya-san first, no, we give our approval that he is an extremelytalented individual . The black cat is cute too . ”

“Lushell…is that so . I was impolite . ”

In response to the unexpected support from each member of crimson tiger, Eris has a surprised look, and lowers her head meekly .

“What do you say, Shuya-san? I am Eris Fafunade . B ranked Mage . Leader of the adventurer clan 【Eight Maidens】 . I work as staff in the adventurer’s guild with my father’s connections . I apologize for earlier . I am sorry . ”

The strong-willed pony-tail woman is named Eris .

She is an acquaintance of Lushell . Our eyes meet .

I am not particularly angry, so I will be polite .

“…Yes . Eris-san . Everything is fine . I am Shuya Kagari . Either Shuya of Kagari, however you want to call me is fine . ”

“…Good . All of 【Crimson Tiger’s Tempest】 recognizes you, Shuya-san must be a remarkable spearman . ”

Eris looks at the black spear in my hand and says so . (TL: I’m not sure if author meant to write Lushell here . ) [ED: Makes more sense as Eris, Changed . ]

“No, I’m just confident in my spear ability . ”

“If that’s the case, thank you for fighting in the future . The remainder of the middle-!?”

The shuffling footsteps of ants comes from inside .

There are multiple magic essence reactions too-

Eris looks back to the right, surprised by this sound .

Everyone notices belatedly .

“Ants again . ”

There is a swarm of soldier ants and armored commander ants coming from the right side .

“Soldiers and commanders, everyone, prepare to intercept-”

“Oou!”

“Let’s do this shit!”

“Here it goes!”

Eris shouts out instructions to the adventurers .

-As expected her commands are fast .

The adventurers who receive instructions are to vanguard, middle guard, rear guard, each respective clan groups together and confronts the swarm of soldier ants and armored commander ants .

Their movements let you feel their agility .

The adventurers seem to be clans with experience as well .

“Eris-san, the crimson tigers will act as a mobile unit . ”

“Yeah, there is no protective wall, crush them as you please . ”

Lushell runs to Eris’s side .

“Eris, work hard . ”

“Lushell too . ”

Lushell and Eris remove the large staves from their backs, slap them together in encouragement before walking away .

The members of crimson tiger confront the ants with Sarah in the lead .

Immediately, they aim for the soldier ants in the area and attack .

Now then, this situation-

Even if I work together with crimson tiger, it can’t be helped .

The place with the lowest rate of extermination…

What is the weakest point?

While thinking so, I look around the battlefield-

Over there it seems there needs to be some reinforcements . There are two armored commander ants going on a rampage .

The commander ants are utilizing their large shells and rushing the adventurers bulldozers, throwing them around .

I signal Rollo with my eyes .

When we make eye contact and nod, we start running .

Rollo’s limbs expand and she takes on her panther form .

The adventurers are split in half because of the armored commander ants, so I aim for the one breaking through on the left .

The armored commander ant starts to turn .

Recalling the other day, I aim for its weak points .

I thrust the black spear into the bundle of muscle in its joins, cutting a hole through the muscle . Several long legs fly into the air .

The armored commander ant is knocked to the ground, unable to withstand the sudden impact, and exposes the lower part of its neck . Maintaining my momentum to the exposed neck .

Waiting for this moment, Rollo repeatedly stabs her bone sword into the neck joint of the armored commander ant .

The neck is stabbed through so many times that it nearly breaks off .

And, when dark red liquid spurts out of the necks with a tearing sound, the head of the armored commander ant explodes off like a cannon directly into the shell of the other commander ant .

The armored commander ant notices the impact and quickly turns this way with it’s red haired legs moving fast .

Glaring at us, it raises a shout in our direction .

Rollo extends her feelers into the distance and quickly retracts them, pulling her entire body . She avoids the charge of the armored commander ant .

I activate <Cerebral Spinal Demon Speed> .

-With my increased speed, I move to the side of the charging commander ant .

Aiming for the legs at this point, I aim for the same soft spots as before and send several severed legs flying .

I harvest the armored commander ant’s legs until timer runs out .

The armored commander ant cannot support itself with all the legs on one side of its body gone . It crashes to the ground, rolling over soldier ants before coming to a stop on its back .

It receives a concentrated attack from the surrounding adventurers .

The overturned armored ant looks like a turtle .

It is a little cute, but I will leave finishing it off to those people .

Once more, I turn my eyes to look over the battlefield .

The crimson tiger group is fighting different armored commander ants .

Their movements are restricted with magic, and each ant is killed .

-It is all right there .

I turn my eyes to the adventurer group around Eris next .

I can see Eris gathering the attention of the armored commander ants and running away .

A member of Eris’s clan is easily wiping out dozens of soldier ants, she is using herself as a decoy .

Doing it like that may be dangerous for Eris .

Should I kill the armored commander ants chasing her?

She is a beautiful woman, I guess I will help her . (TL&ED: God damnit . )

Eris is throwing fireballs at the armored commander ants, but they do not seem to be enough .

The red hair on their legs is burnt . The armored commander ant that has its hair burned raises a battle cry and changes course .

Its legs rustle and it turns its heavy looking body .

A chance . I approach the armored commander ant while it is turning with fighting moji enhanced legs and cut off a leg with the black spear . The armored commander ant stumbles, defenseless .

As usual, I release at the armored commander ant’s neck .

The black spear penetrates deep into the neck .

That moment, the disconnected head is sent flying by the pressure of its blood like a ping-pong ball .

The flying head soars to the soldier ants fighting the adventurers crushing one’s chest .

Hou, it’s good the head did not hit an adventurer .

When the armored commander ants that were giving them a hard time decrease, the situation tilts in favor of the adventurers .

With the advantage, the adventurers kill the remaining soldier ants .

The soldier ants are quickly wiped out .

The sudden swarm of ants has been immediately wiped out .

“Oooh!”

“OOOOooooh!”

“Huzzah!”

The adventurers that wiped out the ants, they all raise their voices together .

“We were able to defeat them really fast, we beat the ants . ”

“-Yahoo!”

“”-OOOooh!””

The adventurers raise their victory cries from various places .

The black cat seems surprised by the sudden shouting and quickly returns to my shoulder .

“-Everyone, it is too early to celebrate! Collect the dead’s belongings, and then would the wounded each get a potion . A portion will report those who died to their respective leaders . Magic users with the water attribute and who can use healing magic, those with light attribute and priests please use healing magic on those who cannot take a potion . I can use light healing too, so recover . Afterwards we can all celebrate!”

As expected, Eris seems to be a commander .

An aura of recovery magic hangs over those who were injured earlier, healing them .

Everyone, the adventurers here seem to have a lot of experience, there are only two dead . Most people only need to swallow a potion and healing magic is only needed for three severely injured .

Once treatment is finished, Eris talks .

“Shuya-san . Thank you for earlier . You defeated the officer we were facing . ”

Her pony tail has slipped because of the intense movements and becomes something strange, but it might be rude to point it out so I do not mention it .

“No, no, it is because Eris-san attracted the attention of the armored commander ant that I was able to aim so easily . ”

“Is that so? You’re a person who doesn’t bring attention to themselves . Fufu, a-”

Then, Eris seems to notice that her red pony tail has slipped .

She uses both of her hands to fix it .

Eris’s bashful face is good, now, the smile she showed for a moment is good too . The expression created a gap with her usual unyielding and intellectual behavior .

“Yo, Shuya seems to have killed several commanders as well . ”

Butch-san’s voice appears there .

The crimson tiger group is approaching .

“Aah, their charging is difficult . ”

When I say so, Belize reacts .

“Shuya-kun, you appear young but you are unexpectedly collected . I thought you would fight the ants and commander ants with us…”

“As Belize says . You were able to understand the movements in the chaotic fight, able to act in the weakest links . ”

Sarah says such a thing as well .

For some reason, I feel uneasy when I am praised .

“…It was a coincidence . It was obvious things would become easy if the commanders were killed . ”

“…Shuya-san is modest-san . ”

With big shining eyes, Lushell says such a thing too .

“Haha, we’ll keep praising you to death . Besides, I might still kill you?”

Saying so, I look to the middle .

“It’s just like that . Defeating those wyvern and imperial guard ants won’t be such an easy task . It will be a fierce battle if it comes to that . So, we will hold a strategy meeting . I will gather the leaders of the clans here, so wait a minute . ”

“Roger . ”

“Understood . ”

Eris is going to gather everyone and is running out to the scattered adventurers .

Sarah mutters while watching Eris summon everyone .

“Strategy, it’s already night, can’t it wait till morning?”
