Chapter 29 – Ambush

Sasa Sasa Sasa
I get on Ado and we turn back to the jungle.

Zaza Zaza Zaza
Footsteps can be occasionally heard.
This is… are we being followed?
The sounds of footsteps are tightly following us.
We may get attacked somewhere.
I grab the Magnum Revolver in my right hand and load it with bullets.
Since the monsters here are animals type, Blood Bullets may work here.

Sasa Sasa Sasa
「Goshujin-shama, behind us~」
It seems that Ado also noticed.
「Try pulling apart if you think you can. You don’t have to mind me」
「Understood~ Goshujin-shama, hold tightly」

Sasa Sasa Sasa Sasa Sasa Sasa
Ado raised the speed.
I desperately cling to her.

Zaza Zaza Zaza Zaza Zaza Zaza
However, the enemy footsteps also accelerated.
It seems that it doesn’t plan on hiding anymore.
It hid its presence until a while ago, but the footsteps can be heard clearly now.

Sasa Sasa Sasa Sasa Sasa Sasa
Ado raises her speed again, but the enemy behind still follows.
It doesn’t seem that we will be able to shake it off.
It would be better to somehow deal with it before we encounter another monster.
Because it seems that only one creature is chasing us, I and Ado may be able to defeat it.
Ado’s strength is still unknown, though.

「Ado, let’s fight the fellow chasing us. If it doesn’t go well, we can escape. The entrance to the 50th floor should be close. We should be able to escape that way」
「A fight, at last~ Ado will do her best~」

After Ado shakes her ears in excitement.
She makes an 180 degrees turn.
I wait for the footsteps at gunpoint.
A single fox emerges from the trees.
No, a giant version of a fox?
I appraise it immediately.

Cooperatively…
Oh c.r.a.ppy c.r.a.p.
Are you saying… that there are others?

Mishimishimishi Mishimishimishi
Moon Foxes start appearing left and right.

This is bad.
We are surrounded by five foxes.
Moreover, one of the foxes is level eight…
We have no choice, but to escape.

「Ado, escape immediately. Return to the 50th floor」
「Eh, we won’t fight~?」
「It’s reconnaissance only this time. It’s dangerous to fight enemy that we know nothing about」
「Understoodeshu」
「Ado will escape with full strength while I shoot them」
「Roge~r」

Sasa Sasa Sasa Sasa
Ado starts running with all her strength.

Ban Ban Ban
I face the Moon Foxes and shoot at them with the Blood Bullets.
It hit the enemy and caused a small explosion.
But, it didn’t fall down.
Tsk.
It may not be effective against stronger monsters after all.

「Gurururuaaaaaaa」
「Gururuaaaaaaaaa」
「Gurururururururururu」
「Guruaaaaaaaaaaa」
「Gurururururuuuuuuuu」

Five foxes are chasing us.
They slow down, surprised by my shooting.
Like this, we can escape without worries.
I reload the Magnum with Bone Bullets.

Ban Ban Ban
「Kyan」

I hit on of the fellows, but it doesn’t seem like its bones bloated.
It looks like the bullet didn’t break through its body.
The appraisal said that they use magic to reinforce their bodies, so it may have protected its body this way.
If Blood and Bone bullets are not effective…

Kuru Gacha
I load a new instrument inside the revolver.
A poison bullet, Nirvana Bullet.
El Jiisan said that the monsters of the 50th floor left because he was cultivating the Nirvana flowers.
If that’s the case…
This may be effective.

Ban Ban Ban
Yosh!
A hit!
The fox who was. .h.i.t by the Nirvana Bullet slowed its movements.
It seems the poison is effective.
The body strengthening magic may not be useful against that at all.

「Goshujin-shama, I can see the staircase~ should I enter~?」
「Yes, continue like that」
「Roger deshu」
