The amount of exercise you get daily. Seeing adventurers and tanuki running around the fields.
The girls were left quite a distance behind by the boys.
“Look. There are traces that seem to indicate the boys passed through here.”
“Great work! Everyone, let’s go!”
“Yes!”
The girl who acted as their leader rejoiced at finding traces through the brand new thicket.
She was aware she was lagging behind.
She would find a way, using her words, to spin things and legally obtain Star Fragments from the boys.
She had been trained by the merchants who came to sell daily necessities to the orphanage, and she had a very persuasive tongue.
◇◆◇◆◇
The boys had split into four groups and found traces indicating they were searching a wide area for Star Fragments.
“Should we split up and pursue them too?”
The girl leader’s thought.
The girls feared the danger of being separated. They were scared. They felt helpless when encountering boys. They might say or do things that would hinder the group.
“Indeed. Those concerns are valid.”
But, she continued. The girl leader spoke of the advantages. For now, at least.
She stated that no one present was a hindrance.
“Are we… splitting up?”
They understood the benefits. They knew they were trusted.
Therefore, they asked if they were going to split into four groups to chase the boys.
“No, your concerns are certainly valid. We should focus our target onto one point. Now, can anyone who remembers the moment a shooting star fell raise their hand?”
Hesitantly. The girls, who could still clearly picture the moment a shooting star fell in their minds, began to raise their hands.
She listened to them in order.
They obtained a general direction.
The traces were also narrowed down more and more.
“…This way. The Star Fragments are this way. Let’s go, everyone.”
“Yes.”
Star Fragments. Rare. Valuable. Which means they could be sold for money.
A limited item that only they possessed. Something to boast about. The means to obtain me.
They could make themselves seem superior to everyone around them. *Smirk.*
Rustle, rustle.
Because there were so many of them.
The path they took spread out.
The return journey would be easier.
The girls walking in the rear, with less risk of their clothes tearing or getting dirty, called out to the girls in front.
“Hey, you there. Be quiet.”
“Sorry…”
The girl leader reprimanded them.
Without a word, they paid attention to the surrounding sounds and smells, following the path the boys had taken.
The sight of those girls.
Rayos watched them, integrated with the trees spread across the ground.
A net of encirclement, from which escape was impossible, had already been completed.
All that remained was to do the same as the boys.
Discover the Star Fragment, rejoice, and then attack when they were thinking about distribution, or about opponents who weren’t present.
☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
“Ah! Look at that!”
One of the girls at the front of the group spotted a light that seemed to be a Star Fragment.
The ground and a nearby hollow were shining.
Undoubtedly. The target Star Fragment.
“Where are the boys? Well, it’s better if they’re not here. ♪ Now, everyone grab a stick and let’s dig up all the Star Fragments!”
“Yes! ♪”
The girls were happily digging up the Star Fragments.
Perhaps it’s the same part of me that secretly wants to sexually harass working women? ♪
The girl leader. Her uterus, with the leader boy’s penis, though it wouldn’t reach her stomach, would be abundantly filled.
Once my body is complete. Incest. Then the stud’s offspring will be fertilizer for the forest, just like his companions.
Rayos laughed with a smug Astral Body, manipulating the large trees and surrounding woods as if they were his limbs.
“Eek! The trees, the trees are moving!?”
“Hey, hey. Is this a prank by the boys!?”
“We’re… we’re completely surrounded…!”
“Waaah, waaah… What should I do?”
“Everyone!? Calm down! Stay together! For now, don’t move around randomly!”
Seeing the panicked girls, the girl leader became calmer and, seeing the danger of their combat power being dispersed, told them to gather in one place.
She pulled the nearby girls closer, reassuring them that trees wouldn’t attack if there were many of them.
“T-that’s true, they’re not attacking! ♪”
“So? What do we do now?”
“Quietly. These trees might be monsters that react to sound. Be quiet. Follow my instructions.”
The girl leader hadn’t thought of an escape plan yet.
There were no boys around at all.
This meant they were going to be killed by the moving trees in front of them.
Scary. But I’m going to be a great merchant!
She thought of a way to escape alone while the trees weren’t attacking.
In fact, the answer was already obvious.
Use the gathered friends as decoys to escape.
She had seen adventurers in the fields.
If they could break through this encirclement.
They could call for help. Their location would be revealed to the monsters by their voices, but there were plenty of decoys. In any case, if she was at the front when escaping, she would be saved.
That was the reality. It was bad to be lagging behind. In the orphanage, it wasn’t that uncommon for children who went out to play outside the village to not come back.
Well, it was unusual for more than ten people to not come back at once, like today.
“Everyone, lend me your ears. Whispers. Whispers.”
“What…? Huh? Really? Will it work?”
If you don’t believe me. I’ll leave you here. As decoys, not having to choose one myself, saving me the trouble.
“Let’s go.”
“Yes.”
“Huh? Everyone, w–KYAAAAAAAH. What is this!?! NOOOOO!”
From the hollow where the Star Fragment was, they suddenly retreated towards the village.
A girl who had been skeptical of the girl leader’s plan was left behind.
Rayos went along with the charade.
He wanted to see the look of despair on the girl leader’s face the moment she felt relieved, thinking, “I’m saved! ♪”
Coincidentally, things unfolded exactly as the girl leader had envisioned.
“Heeeelp!!!!”
“Wait!!!!”
“Don’t abandon me —”
Haa, haa, haa.
I can hear the voices of those caught by the tree monsters from behind, but there’s no change to the plan! A quick glance.
There are still 3 more decoys left! ♪ Based on the distance I’ve run, the village isn’t far.
It’s about time to call for help from the adventurers, from the adults.
Well, even if I don’t scream. The decoys are already screaming for help.
To maintain running speed and to regulate my breathing.
Just like this.
Rustle, rustle.
Rustle, rustle.
I broke through! ♪
This is the road to the village.
I’m saved! ♪
“Wha–!”
Swoosh! Crash!
“Oww!? N-no way… Roots can extend this far. It’s impossible.”
As Rayos had desired.
The girl leader fell from relief into despair.
She couldn’t accept the reality of roots growing from the paved road and wrapping around her ankles.
This must be a mistake, she muttered, trying to loosen the roots with both hands.
As she struggled, new roots grew from the existing ones, restraining both her hands.
“NOOOOOOOOOOOO! Why me!? I was going to work in the merchant’s shop! I was going to become a great merchant who would eventually start my own large store, so why meeeee!”
Rustle, rustle.
“Nnngh?! Nnngaah, Nnngh?!”
Her mouth, which was making loud noises, was zipped shut.
Since I went along with your little play ♪
It’s only natural that you meet the same fate as your friends ♪ Isn’t it ♪
Rayos caused more roots to grow, sealing the girl leader’s mouth.
He pulled back the roots from her head, hands, and feet.
With a drag, he pulled the girl leader into the forest she had fled from. It looked like a scene from a horror movie.
“Nnngh–?! Nnngh!”
She scraped against the ground.
Her clothes tore, and the exposed skin was scraped. If there were stones, she got cut.
The girl leader demanded that the root-tree monster handle her carefully. How imperious. You could also call it strong-willed.
Rayos was quite pleased with that personality.
His sadistic side was stimulated, and he deliberately dragged her the long way around.
By the time they reached the place with the Star Fragment, the girl leader, with tears and mud all over her, had completely lost any semblance of cuteness or haughtiness.
When the root that had sealed her mouth was removed, she apologized to her friends whom she had used as decoys, saying, “I’m sorry, everyone, it was all my fault.” Rayos was a little disappointed, as he had been expecting her to try to escape or to curse him.
By the way, those friends were already ejaculated inside by the stud boy leader.
It was past noon, or rather, dusk.
The girl leader was still a child, yet she had endured prolonged abuse.
Rayos was childish. He couldn’t be spoken of in the same breath as gentlemen. He acted indifferently to how gentlemen would judge him.
“Ah… no…♡”
Against her will. Her lower body became a different creature.
Even though she didn’t want to ejaculate. Her penis wouldn’t stop urinating.
She heard the
