Chapter 78: VS Queen Ant
"Vigna!! Keep the queen ant at bay. Galatea, seize that sword while she's distracted!!"
"Got it!!"
"Understood, Master!!"
That gleaming sword must be made of Orichalcum. If that thing gets into the queen ant's possession, we're seriously done for.
While Vigna and I simultaneously try to distract, I fire my gun, but it seems futile against its tough carapace.
But that's alright. If we can just divert its attention even slightly...
"---!!"
As expected of the boss of the colony, the queen ant seems to have anticipated my thoughts and heads straight for the Orichalcum sword.
Ad
Just as I wonder who will reach it first, who will pick up the sword... It happens. Something tears through the air, and one of the eggs behind the queen ant is ripped apart.
"You..."
"This is what you do in times like this."
Georg, blood flowing from his head, threw the sword of one of his slain subordinates at the eggs. Witnessing the torn eggs, the queen ant emitted a shriek-like cry. And in that momentary distraction, a fatal outcome was created through the scramble.
As Galatea grasped the Orichalcum sword, she immediately struck at the queen ant.
"---!!"
Surprisingly easily, the Orichalcum sword cleaved through the queen ant's leg. It let out a displeased cry as it hurriedly tried to flee, but our Galatea wasn't going to let it go so easily.
"Hehehe, this is our gratitude for causing so much trouble for us and for Dwel. You won't escape!!"
"Grace... Something is coming in large numbers!!"
Perhaps having heard the queen ant's earlier scream, the surrounding mine ants quickly returned, as if to protect the queen ant.
"Hmph, I'll let you borrow that sword!! Let's hunt down these small fry!!"
"Yes!!"
Georg's surviving subordinates echoed his voice. If we join forces with them, we should be able to manage somehow. But... it's annoying to be ordered around like this...
"Vigna, we're joining in too!!"
"If these guys are here, the town should be safe."
"Yeah, that's right..."
I nod in agreement with her words. But why does something feel off? What about those ants that were moving strangely earlier?
Even in the midst of battle, such thoughts cross my mind.
