ーShindou jr Kazuhiko”」
He knew how to cope with the situation . Firstly, cutting off all the vines it was controlling won’t have much effect . In other words, if he could cut down the main trunk than it’s his win .
But the always bending thick and heavy vines were like a whip, always obstructing his advance . Even if he could dodge the fine points of the vines, they always bent and chased after Yuuto .
Furthermore, even if he could avoid that one, another one would swing towards him with a shrill sound . And there were 10 of these annoying vines . If he was careless then soon he would collapse and end up being nourishment for it .
“Oh my, little boy? If you just keep on avoiding me, there won’t be any progress, you know!!”
The vines mercilessly increased in speed . As the ten vines attacked him from all directions, Yuuto dodged them by narrow margins .
But, things were exactly as it said . Yuuto kept thinking . Let alone swinging his sword, the only thing he did was dodge . And, though he was successful in dodging, the attack of the vines soon started connecting . They left tears in his clothes, and bruises on his face .
‘This is bad, for now, I should…’
As there was no clear advancement of the situation, Yuuto felt that and in order to get away from the range of the vines, he quickly backstepped .
“I won’t let you run!”
Trying to stop him, the Alraune controlled one of the vines like a spear and shot it towards Yuuto, trying to pierce him .
“It’s coming!!”
But as if waiting for it, Yuuto kicked the ground and jumped into the air . After the vine spear passed below him he landed on in . With a quick sprint, he closed in at once with the main body .
He swung his sword down with all his might to slash at the crown of the Alraune . But just when there were only a few small centimeters, a sudden strike crashed into him from the left flank .
“Argh!?”
A creaking sound, as if his body was breaking . Unbearable nausea assailed him . But that wasn’t all . The main body blasted Yuuto off the vine . Yuuto without even being able to get into a defensive stance crashed back first into a tree . His body bent like an arrow, and he fell to the ground .
“You don’t give up, do you, little boy?”
An upside down scene reflected in his eyes which had blanked out . The Alraune grabbed Yuuto’s ankle with a vine and brought him before it’s eyes .
He was lifted upside down .
But Yuuto could do nothing to defend himself .
While putting on an anguished smile, he ended up imagining the figure himself turning into nourishment for the Alraune .
As that was happening, a necklace dangled down because of gravity . It was a beautiful necklace with a ruby-like red gem embed in it . The bewitching light from the necklace attracted the Alraune’s attention .
“Oh my, what a pretty necklace… Wonderful timing, maybe I should take it?”
The Alraune used a new vine to entangle the necklace, trying to rip it from his neck but then it saw .
“Hey…”
And it felt it’s instincts telling it to immediately part with the necklace, throw away this human and get away fast . The human, Yuuto, was holding aloft a bottle filled with reddish brown liquid as if he would throw it this way in an instant .
“Don’t go calmly touching other people’s things!!”
With an angry voice filled with killing intent, he threw the bottle like a fired bullet at the Alraune . Of course, the Alraune could neither dodge it, nor could it use a vine to deflect it .
The bottle collided with the Alraune’s face, as it broke with a shattering sound . The liquid inside splashed all over the main body .
“A-Aghyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!?”
“Uff!”
The power in the vines decreased as Yuuto’s body fell to the ground . Though he felt pain, with the Alraune’s scream he knew this was his chance .
The overkill herbicide he got from Ashidaka was strong enough to cruelly kill not only the ivy at the forest entrance, but also the greenery surrounding it . For Alraune who was a monster, it was more than enough, no, rather it showed the best possible effect .
The agonizing death screams gradually turned the once fascinating voice into that of an old woman’s . And the petals, alongside the whip-like vines, fell to the ground without any vigor .
Yuuto stood up and ran . He cut all the withered vines in his way . Soon he reached the main trunk . He yelled out like a brute and with a swing and cut the withering trunk in half .
“Haa…Haa…Haa…Haa…”
He thrust the blade into the ground as he breathed haggardly . His knees grew weak, and he sat down on the ground . The vines holding up the men from the village had withered so they fell down .
Before long the men who regained their consciousness turned to shock as they realized the state of things . There were many kinds of reactions; those who couldn’t believe it, those who were
sighing saying that their wife would kill them .
Most probably, these guys while hunting were hypnotized by the Alraune’s pollen and then turned into its nourishment .
“U-Unbelievable……”
Yuuto who was amazed in many different levels, felt fatigue taking over his body, and finally, he collapsed on the ground .
