Magical Comprehensive Travel

He was anxious, but his steps were cautious. His mouth was dry and his throat was so tense it was about to spasm. He held his breath, lowered his footsteps, and moved forward while guarding the dark forest. That step is actually hesitation, but there is no fear or cowardice in the act of stepping forward.

"Although I said a lot to Rem..."

It was dangerous to act alone, but Subaru didn't think there was no chance of success. Subaru, who was originally a villain, hardly ever took a gamble, and even so, he challenged, only when he saw the basis and chance of winning.

"The one who casts a curse on the little ghost, if it's a puppy I met during the day..."

Contrary to the terrifying word of Warcraft, the puppies themselves are not very powerful. As long as you pay attention to the threat of the curse, if you really want to fight...

"It shouldn't be lost...?"

Looking forward to the petite stature of the enemy, looking for humiliating odds. Although thinking too much is just right and optimistic, I don’t think positive thinking is wrong.

No matter what, this world always treated Subaru very harshly, and the more he repeated his bad imagination, the more he could see the despair that surpassed it being released in a zealous manner.

The twisted way of showing love in this world made Subaru hold back his sigh and bow his head in despair. At this time...

"Alas!" The sudden sense of incongruity caused Subaru to take a breath and stop.

The feeling of a change in the air was conveyed to the skin faithfully, and the temperature of the sweat that slid across his forehead dropped rapidly.

What the wind sent into the trembling nostrils was the strong animal smell wafting from the forward direction. Originally, there was only a lush, grassy, ​​earthy smell in the space, but now there is a unique fishy smell of creatures spreading.

Unable to stop feeling provoked by an unpleasant premonition, Subaru suppressed his breath and walked forward. Sneaking out through the bushes, staring at the cause of the wafting smell - only to gasp.

At the end of the line of sight, there is a space where trees grow sparsely, and there is a tree that has fallen due to wind and corrosion. Beside the fallen tree, there are a pair of thin white feet.

Extending his neck to observe, Subaru confirmed that the legs were wrapped in tattered clothes, and the brown braids that were spread out belonged to the girl's hair—found it!

Holding his breath, Subaru began to think. There is no doubt that she is the girl she is looking for, but her body lying on the ground does not move, let alone whether she is conscious or not, even if she is breathing. He glanced around the girl for a while, and there seemed to be no monsters nearby who had kidnapped the girl.

Bringing the prey home and leaving it alone is weird no matter how you think about it, but...

"What if this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity..."

During the period of hesitation, there is a chance that the perfect opportunity to rescue the girl may be missed. If the demon beasts returned, the chances of Subaru being able to compete with them were half.

Leaving the grass and trees, Subaru leaped into the space in front of him and charged straight at the girl. He picked up the petite body lying in the shadow of the tree, and checked the heartbeat of the light body.

- Breathing is very weak, but the heart is indeed beating.

"That's great." It's really great that I didn't choose to give up this girl.

The slight breathing and heartbeat were probably because the girl was also affected by the curse. In this case, it is necessary to apply healing magic and release the spell as soon as possible.

Although he wasn't confident in his physical strength, if he was just carrying a girl through the forest—that's when Subaru was ready to stand up.

The coolness that suddenly hit his back made Subaru turn his head and look back.

Shaking the bushes, stepping over the grass and stomping on the bare ground was a four-legged beast.

The beast's body hair is black and short, and its appearance is close to the Doberman pinscher of the original world, but its physique is twice the size of the Doberman pinscher that Subaru knew. The toes were sharp like hooked claws, and saliva dripped from the teeth that could not be completely covered even if the mouth was closed, and the beast let out a low growl while staring at Subaru with bloodshot eyes.

The devil dog, or rather the beast, whose ominous appearance fits those names perfectly.

"Director, this script is wrong, hello." The cramped cheeks forced a dry smile unconsciously.

"Take this child as bait, wait for me to take the bait...?"

He only looked at the surroundings with his eyes, but there was no sign of Rem coming, and there was no place where he could escape from the beasts. To make things even more troublesome, the beast lowered its head and lowered its posture, and began to bend its four legs. no time to hesitate...

"Damn, come if you want to come!" He shouted, taking off his shirt and wrapping the tailored shirt around his left hand.

When confronting a beast, the most important weapon to be aware of is the Liao Ya. Wrap a thick cloth around your hand and let the beast bite to prevent injury. It can be said to be the minimum equipment you should have when confronting a four-legged beast.

Recalling that in the original world, he had seen a program of training police dogs on TV, so he immediately began to imitate it. Extending his left hand, he glared at the monster who estimated the timing of jumping over.

Subaru's heart felt anxious as he lowered the beast that didn't move.

"What are you doing calmly! Hurry up, come here! Over..."

Disappeared. The monster that was in front of me suddenly disappeared as if it had melted into the darkness.

Astonished until his throat froze, Subaru was at a loss as to where to stretch his left hand that was reaching out to the darkness—the next second, the beast's sharp teeth pierced through the thick cloth and bit deeply into the flesh.

"Okay—!" In an instant, the pain was so severe that the vision was dyed bright red, and the pain of being pierced directly hit the nerves.

but……

"—the opposite of pain!"

The left arm tightened the muscles, and the teeth embedded in the flesh naturally could not be pulled out. With the effect of tying the shirt, the movement of the beast was completely still.

The red eyes and Subaru's eyes were entangled with each other, just as they seemed to be swallowed up by the overwhelming hostility of the beast...

"Dare to bite me, go to hell!"

With his left hand hugging the beast's body, Subaru turned his body vigorously. The monster's body floated under the centrifugal force, and the force of the rotation caused its back to hit the tree behind it and toppled it.

Sharp branches pierced the skin and made a muffled sound piercing the flesh, and then the dying cry of the beast resounded through the night forest.

The beast whose back was pierced struggled for a while in Subaru's arms, but its strength became weaker and smaller, and finally stopped moving, and Subaru knelt on the ground on the spot.

"Win... Did you win?" Looking at the beast's lifeless eyes, Subaru muttered to himself and pulled his left hand from the beast's teeth.

His shirt was stained with blood and saliva, and his left hand was even worse. Looking directly at the wound, the pain started to penetrate the nerves, and Subaru let out a silent scream. Even though his face was wrinkled together, the feeling of reassurance made him take a deep breath.

Even without Rem's power, it is possible to escape from danger. He took the trouble to untie his shirt and re-tie it on his left hand, this time using it as a tourniquet. After confirming that the arm can be moved, this time I will pick up the girl.

"It hurts...but this is proof of being alive. Damn it, go back to the village first..." The words stopped here because he noticed one thing.

The feeling in his whole body caught it, and the smell of beasts wafted again. Turning his head, the grass swayed, and then Subaru murmured.

"Hey, it's a lie..."

Glittering red eyes tearing through the night forest, there are countless such spots of light, all looking this way from behind the bushes on the front.

I don't want to count how many, but even using the fingers of both hands and feet is definitely not enough. After realizing it, Subaru spread his arms and stood there. Not to surrender to those countless spots of light—to protect the girl behind him.

The beasts did not feel his speechless awakening at all. The red dot ignored Subaru's will and charged towards him at the same time.

"Oh!"

When he regained his senses, Subaru's throat was screaming, a roar that he couldn't give up. Only this can't lose to the spot of light in front of you! Only courage can't lose! Just as it literally means, this roar is just a paper tiger who is strong from the outside and works hard at the same time, and the beast's teeth are biting at the throat of Subaru's shouting...

Seeing the head of the monster in front of him, it burst like a fruit. The extremely close slaughter caused blood to erupt, and Subaru, who was standing in front of him, was drenched in blood from the head.

After that, the monster's body, which had lost its head, was only speed, and slammed into Subaru with such force. After being hit, he flew back and rolled a few times. Subaru shook his head and stood up amid the pain and stickiness of blood.

"The children have returned to the village safely, you have worked hard for your time." Flipping up the skirt elegantly, lightly clutching a white apron dress in one hand, and a vicious iron ball in the other hand, the blue-haired girl gracefully descended into the forest battlefield.
