Chapter 14……nuo, bad, I was downed! Eer, where, am I?
My field of vision is shaking a lot. Actually, my body is shaking.
“Ah, Maito-san, you woke up?”
Ah, I remember. Yeah. I went down after being punched in the stomach by this guy.
I’ll, kill this guy, someday. Even if I don’t kill you, I’ll make you suffer. I’ll probably have the tables turned on me though.
get stronger!
And so, yes. I am currently being carried by f.u.kuyama-kun and travelling outside.
This is bad. Where, is this. It doesn’t feel like I can get back.
“Sorry, I didn’t really want to get too rough……”
You b.a.s.t.a.r.d, messing with meeeeeeee! What do you mean “didn’t want to get too rough” !
Stop messing around! This is clearly kidnapping! It’s a crime! a.s.sault is included too!
There’s a mountain of things I want to say, but for now, this.
punch first
Ura!
then again
……I tried hitting him, but he’s ridiculously hard. It doesn’t feel like hitting a human body.
It’s that, I probably hit his armour.
Dammit, come at me f.u.kuyama, throw away your weapons, armour and corrections and come at me!
This b.a.s.t.a.r.d, let me punch you oraoraora!
“Maito-san, I got it, calm down.”
“Like h.e.l.l I can calm down! You b.a.s.t.a.r.d! Bring back to the lab now!”
My fist hurts after punching him. Aah stop already!
“I can’t do that. Sorry, but I think you’ll calm down once in a proper environment.”
“Just hurry up and bring me back you kidnapper.”
“More importantly, see, we’re going to reach soon, so calm down.”
Aah, he’s not listening at all! I don’t want to deal with this guy anymore!
But the worst is, I can’t break free from his restraint and escape with my strength.
Actually, even if I escaped, I’ll die to a monster after that.
……damm—it, it really is tough being a maid……
clean off his armour!
After I gave up and obediently let him carry me for a while.
“Uwah! What is this? what’s going on?”
Even though we encountered an amazing amount of monsters, it didn’t become a battle.
A single horned rabbit perhaps separated from the herd, large birds, they all rushed right by us in a straight line, so it didn’t become a battle.
……but, this means……
“Hm? That’s strange……what happened?”
f.u.kuyama-kun, you’re looking at the direction the monsters went.
At these times, you should be looking at the direction the monsters ran from.
“……hm? What?”
“……eh?”
There, was a stupidly huge wolf, baring its teeth at us.
run! actually dont
It’s a huge wolf, I think it’s about the size of a light truck.
Just that light trucks do not bare their teeth or glare at you.
So the air of intimidation is beyond that of a light truck and closer to that of a jet.
What’s a jet’s level of intimidation?
I don’t even know what I’m saying myself, hahahahahaha.
“Eer, monsters come out less at night?”
“Something like this has never come out until now!”
Ah, I see, this idiot. If you didn’t bring me out, I wouldn’t be glared at by such a huge wolf!
“It’s okay, I’ll protect Maito-san!”
Even if you say that, can you really do something with that sword? About that?.
And the battle between f.u.kuyama-kun and the huge wolf began.
really feels like Oliver, you want the hero to lose but dont
“Maito-san, get back! I’m coming! Prepare yourself, wolf!”
Saying something, f.u.kuyama held up his sword and started running.
But running straight in, are you stupid?
As expected, the wolf easily swept f.u.kuyama-kun aside with its foreleg.
See, I told you so.
“Dammit, again!”
f.u.kuyama-kun charged the wolf energetically again, but the wolf swept him away again with its foreleg.
But even f.u.kuyama-kun learns, he slipped under the front leg and leapt onto the wolf’s back.
And from there, he tried to stab his sword into the wolf, but the fur blocked the blade and it didn’t work.
And as he was doing that, the wolf shook him off and he was sent flying off again.
It seems he hit his head at that speed, he laid there without moving. This was just 30 seconds after the fight began.
A—a—a—h, weren’t you going to protect me, d.a.m.n it.
Won’t you at least but enough time for me to run, d.a.m.n it.
yay he lost, but maito….
Whether it lost interest in the prey that had collapsed or just thought it could eat it later, the huge wolf stared at me.
Trembletremble, me, is not bad maid!
I’m not nice even if you eat me! I will probably only taste watery with a bit of salt!
……o, okay, at these times, I need to calm down and think.
you have time for that?
If I showed my back here, it iss probably close in on me in an instant and kill me.
But it iss not an opponent I can defeat by fighting either.
Even if he was an idiot that didn’t think about tactics at all, f.u.kuyama-kun who is presumably a knight was knocked out so easily.
Never mind being knocked out, I would die the instant my body is. .h.i.t. Unmistakably.
Which means this is an impossible game where I die instantly if I get hit a single time.
And even if I manage to make some G.o.dly evasions consecutively, sadly, I have no means of attack, so I can’t win.
Even if I keep making G.o.dly evasions and run, it seems like f.u.kuyama-kun carried me quite a large distance, so there is quite a way to the lab.
Can I run that distance at full sprint? Impossible.
Actually, there’s no way my full speed can outrun this wolf in the first place.
The opponent is a carnivore. And one the size of a light truck.
murigee
To begin with, the only part I have an edge in is probably tight turns.
I have confidence in my instantaneous acceleration by using my body like a spring, but it will just catch up in the next instant.
Hmmm, I thought of whether I could erase it with [Cleaning], but I don’t have my feather duster in the first place, so I can’t use [Cleaning].
f.u.kuyama-kun is becoming more and more detestable.
yes
And so the only things I can do right now, is use skills that don’t need tools.
Meaning [Ballad] and [Clothes Manufacturing].
But the match will probably last an instant. For that, since there is a time lag for the effects of [Ballad] to show after I start singing, it’s dangerous.
Incidentally, it seems I was down for more than 30 minutes, the effects of [Prayer Song] and [Wish Song] have run out.
f.u.kuyama-kun is detestable to the very end.
all his fault
Even so, with [Clothes Manufacturing], since I don’t have tools, I can only make fibers with alchemy or spin thread by hand. No, even if I spun or wove, it won’t change anything though.
Hmm, spin the wolf’s fur? Nonono, spinning by hand would take too much time.
I thought of making fiber with the wolf’s fur as material and making the wolf naked in an instant, but judging by my MP, I can’t do the whole wolf, and it’s not like I can do anything even after the fur is gone.
Hmm, if f.u.kuyama-kun was still here, I could at least get him to stab his sword into where the fur is gone, but that guy ran ahead on his own and got knocked out.
useless
In that case, the only means of surviving is to find a new skill.
With no practice.
Mhm, there’s only that, probably.
……okay, I’ll brace myself.
Okay, wolf. Are you prepared? I am.
“Oooi, puppy.”
When I raised my voice, the wolf twitched in response, but it didn’t attack.
But does that light scratching of the ground with its front leg mean ‘I can jump on you at anytime’? Well, that’s fine.
“Don’t you think, training a watch dog is also a maid’s job?”
The wolf’s fur stood on end, but it still showed no sign of attacking.
Good. Then, I’ll take a deep breath and.
“[Sit]!!”
It’s strange for me to say this, but it felt like my voice shook the ground.
what is wrong with your voice
At first, the wolf showed no sign of moving, it had the feeling of ‘What’re you saying?’.
A—h, I’ve done it, guess I have to run for it, all or nothing, but as I thought that while continuing to glare at each other, the light truck-sized wolf very reluctantly, with a ‘seriously, guess I have to’ kind of feeling, sat down.
And as I watched that, I felt something leaving me quickly and made the mistake of falling unconscious again.
mana?
……huh, bad, I was downed. And it had to be right in front of the wolf!
Even if it sat down, it’s still extremely dangerous!
By the way, what is the situation now. The surroundings is extremely fluffy though.
……fluffy?
When I glanced up, the face of the light truck-sized wolf was there.
It seems, I’m buried in the stomach of the curled up wolf.
comfy
After freezing for a while, the wolf made a face like ‘Your expression is funny’, so for now.
“……eh, er, gumo—nin……?”
When I tried greeting it timidly (the surroundings is still dark though), it licked my face with a ‘yesyes’ kind of feel.
Er……er……wh, what is going on? Why is it, attached to me?
maid?
When confused, dog tag.
When I looked at my dog tag, there was a skill called [Watch Dog Training], a skill that is exactly as it says, added on.
……eer, let’s think about it a little.
First, this skill was added on, so that means my [sit] succeeded.
And the skill’s name is [Watch Dog Training], so it probably became a [Watch Dog].
So it didn’t attack me and it made this fluffy situation to protect me.
Hmhm, I can accept that.
The scary one would be the pattern of it just being a whim of this truck-sized wolf……
……let’s not think about that.
…..yeah
Eeer, then, me going down after that was probably because I ran out of mana. I think that despondency would be the feeling of MP exhaustion made stronger.
……which means if not for the long underskirt dyed with laurel, there is a high chance of the skill failing to activate due to lack of MP, meaning the end of me.
…….hieeeeeee, thank goodness I made this underskirt! Thank you bay laurels!
….how about the scary pattern
“And so, you are probably my watch dog!”
“Gau”
It barked like ‘Yesyes, I know that’.
“I’ll be in your care from now on!”
“Gau”
It barked again withe the feeling of ‘Can’t be helped, guess I’ll protect you’.
Seems like I can someh—w communicate.
Whether this is the effect of the skill or simply that it is smart is not clear though.
But looking closely, it’s actually quite cute. Its fur is a cool dark grey and its eyes are a beautiful gold.
It’s quite a beautiful wolf.
And as I thought that, it made a face like ‘Really? Really? You can praise me more.’.
Okay, you cute guy. I’ll pet you. Yo—shayoshayoshayosha.
As I stroked it, it rubbed its face against me. Fluffy, it feels very nice.
Oooh, what is this, it really is cute. Mhm mhm. ……mhm, if I had to say which, rather then playing with it, I feel like I’m the one being played with, mhm. I’m not going to mind that.
