Chapter 9: Mushroom hunting

“Hi-yah! ───── matsutake-chan ───── ♡! I’ll tie you up on the rope ─────.”*

While hop-ho-ho-hop and high pitched laughter of good spirits echoed through the forest, the Matsutake mushroom hunting began

 A walking mushroom being chased. The sudden appearance of the hunter made it think, “Ah~ there’s that idiot who’s coming after us again!” and it started running, but the hunter’s rapidly enlarging figure sent a shiver down It’s  spine.

─────My friends have already been captured~.

 In the right hand of the hunter approaching behind it, she already had a bewildered and flopping companion in it’s right hand. It’s a bad guy. Incredible, the really bad guy is here.

“I’ll make a nice meal out of you~~ just be quiet and don’t get caught~♡ Hohohohoho…”*

 A high-pitched laugh echoes around the area. Oh man, I’m done. ‥‥‥‥.

“─────Huh?”

“What's wrong?"

 There were two figures walking through the forest, dressed in knight’s clothes and cloaks.

 One of them looks around while the other looks behind him.

“Did you not hear a woman’s voice?”

“What? Here?” 

“like, a terrible Great laughter…”

"Hey! That's scary! Stop it! Where the hell do you think we are?!"

 His partner, who was determined to get to the rendezvous point as quickly as possible, moved off at a brisk pace.

Wait a minute, behind me as I chased after him I heard,  “Hee──────Haa─────‥‥‥, This time I heard it, I was sure I heard it. The moment I did, a shiver ran through my body.

“What!? What’s wrong with you?”

 For some reason, my colleague,  who was supposed to be behind me,  silently zipped past me, and when I turned around without thinking, I heard a woman's voice echoing, “‥‥‥‥ hahahaha ‥‥‥‥ ───── chan ‥‥‥‥ fuhahahahahaha”.

 I restrained myself from screaming with both hands, and broke into a run without a second thought.

With synchronized breathing, the two ran off with tears in their eyes.

“Matsutake mushroom-chan, you’re still here, aren’t you~? Where is it, where is it~?”

 I looked around in good spirits, but could not see any running matsutake mushrooms.

 I looked at the matsutake mushrooms splashing in my hands, but what should I do with them? Can I eat the feet part too? No, I’d like to visually refrain.  Since it moves kind of like fish, I wonder if I can just tighten it. I thought about how it would be to close the mushrooms, and I lightly squeezed them anyway. Right then, their wriggling feet surely stopped moving, and before long only the legs disappeared. What remained were the best foods, the kind displayed in stores, at very unaffordable prices. I was so excited that I carefully tucked them away in my pockets, saying, “Woohoo, real matsutake mushrooms…”

 I looked around, snickering and scurrying restlessly to see if there were any more, but there was no sign of them.

"I see, in times like these, 'search'! 'Explore'! Don't play with me! Look for matsutake mushrooms!!"

 Eeeeek──────. (Shriek)

  An inarticulate scream echoed through the forest.
