I didn’t expect the end to arrive so soon with the Bird Monster rushing ahead.
” ” ” –!! –!! ” ” ”
The Ant Monster, retaining its combat power, attacked the Bird Monster and the Rabbit Monster.
The Bird Monster was forced into consecutive battles.
It Issued commands to its combat individuals with a mournful cry.
The Rabbit Monster was ordered to defend with its remaining forces.
It then focused on procreation with the Seedbed Individual, showing no other commands.
Perhaps because of that, children were being born.
However, they would need a few more days to be considered combat individuals.
The Rabbit Monster sensed with its long ears that the defense line was being pressed in some areas, and it threw its newly-born children into the fray one by one, without much consideration for their development.
What a war of attrition.
Even though the Rabbit Monster was expending its physical strength and magic power to create semen.
It’s worthy of being the foundation, being rabbits of perpetual heat, isn’t it? ♪
*Click-clack-click*
The Ant Monster noticed that the Bird Monster was taking time to establish its defense formation.
As soon as it realized the Rabbit Monster was not commanding on the front lines,
It focused its efforts on crushing the Rabbit Monster.
It diverted its forces to the Rabbit Monster’s defense line in a ratio of 4 to 6.
” –!! ”
” *Click-clack-click*!! ”
The Rabbit Monster’s defense line was thrown into chaos by the sudden increase in enemies.
The Ant Monster seemed to be laughing, striking its lower jaw in response? ♪
The Bird Monster, which had been dazed, wondering if the enemy’s offensive had weakened?
It snapped back to reality as its combat individuals called for support.
“Quay! Quay—!!”
“Caw! Kaah!”
“Click-clack, click…!”
Since the Ant Monster had no further orders,
Even when the Bird Monster’s defense formation began to function, it steadfastly continued its attack, fighting until the last individual remained.
“Quay quay ♪!”
“Kaah, kawah ♪!”
They managed to defend and raised victory cries.
The Rabbit Monster, on the other hand, suffered devastating damage.
Accompanied by the Seedbed Individual and two combat individuals, the Rabbit Monster continued to flee within this confined space.
The Ant Monster judged that such a Rabbit Monster was not a threat.
Instead of sending pursuit units, it assigned personnel to watch the Bird Monster’s defense line.
“Ah, well. I had kind of hoped for more from the Rabbit Monster…”
Acting just like me.
No matter what happens, the priority is females and lust.
Leaving everything to subordinates and offspring.
Ah, like the Ant Monster.
If it diligently solidifies its foundation and starts moving,
My dream will recede even further…sigh.
“I can’t catch a break, really.”
Sigh. Then. The Bird Monsters’ victory cries echoed quite loudly.
Lookouts from neighboring countries sent small units inside, but
This is interference, isn’t it?
“This is messing with my蠱毒 (kōdoku – poisonous insects, used here metaphorically for a chaotic, developing situation).”
Releasing mana into the interior, it possessed a body that had been diligently absorbing corpses.
By stopping my mana release,
It would affect the monsters’ meals and procreation.
But, that’s a small price to pay.
“Die quickly!”
“Huh? A ho-man?!”
“Hihyaa!”
“Whatever country you’re from, goooo!”
It’s your fault for venturing so deep.
I annihilated the small units that came one after another to investigate the situation.
Floating in the sky as an Astral Body, I crushed any reinforcements that arrived.
Several hours later, they finally realized it was a waste of personnel and no more small units appeared.
Returning the body to its original position, I resumed the 蠱毒.
Releasing mana. Filling the space with mana.
I felt like an air purifier. My breath was clean. Pfft, not really.
Mana, depending on its concentration, can have adverse effects on both organic and inorganic matter.
” –! –!!”
Once a certain amount of mana filled the air, the Ant Monster, having restored its condition, began to prepare to deliver the finishing blow to the Bird Monster.
The Rabbit Monster dug multiple pots (a type of defensive structure) in the ground.
Changing locations every other day, it eventually connected all the trenches, preparing for guerrilla warfare. It hasn’t given up! ♪ It’s worthy of being the one closest to me.
This means the outcome is still uncertain.
Several weeks later.
The Ant Monster, having completed its preparations, attacked the Bird Monster’s defense line from two points simultaneously.
Although the Bird Monster anticipated their arrival, its forces were insufficient.
It was forced into a difficult fight from the very beginning.
The Rabbit Monster had a slight increase in combat individuals.
They were hidden as individual units in the pots, prepared for when the Ant Monster attacked.
Still busy digging in the confined space and procreating.
After planting the seeds, it busied itself digging holes in the next location.
“Kii, Kii, Kii.”
