Chapter 119.2: Encounter With The SNAKE
「KYAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!」
Something came out from the sand along with that scream.
The one who appeared was a woman with the lower body of a snake.
It was a Lamia.Lamias were monsters with the lower body of a snake. Since they were the Serpent Queen, Diadona’s kin, they’re supposed to be quite powerful.
And there wasn’t just one of them.
Everyone who hid themselves had finally revealed their figures.
Every single one of them had the lower body of a snake, armed with either a spear or a bow.
「Lamias? And some gorgons too. Oh no, the gorgons are about to use their evil eyes!!」
Among the women with the lower body of a snake, some even had numerous tiny snakes growing from their scalp as hair.
Yup, those are definitely gorgons.Just like Lamiaa, gorgons had the lower body of a snake too, but they were actually an even more terrifying monster with countless tiny snakes as their hair. They had the evil eye of petrification and could literally transform anyone who they saw into stone. It didn’t work on Ishtar and me who had powerful magic resistance, but the catfolk attendants would be in danger.
「Don’t worry, Chiyuki. Pistis, seal the gorgons’ evil eyes!!」
「Leave it to me, Ishtar-sama.」
That moment, Pistis body transformed. He grew another pair of hairy arms.
His figure resembled that of a monkey. This might be his true appearance. AMonkey god with four arms and six fingers. That was Pistis’ true appearance.
What kind of method would he use to seal the evil eyes?
Despite being a member of the divine race, he was among the weak ones.
Could it be that he is actually hiding some sort of terrifying final art.
The moment I pondered about that, Pistis suddenly lowered his pants.
His p*nis lay bare in the wild.
My train of thought froze the moment I saw that.
「Hehehe, look at my mighty little Pistis, Gorgon si~s.」
Pistis suddenly charged toward the gorgons, with a naked lower half.
Eh? What in the hell was happening here?
It was such a jaw-dropping scene.
「NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!」
「STOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOP!!」
「HEEEELP!! I’M ABOUT TO BE ASSAULTED BY A FLASHEEEEEEEER!」
「STOP SHOWING US THAT THIIIIIIIIIING!!」
But, the effect was imminent.
The gorgons DID shut their eyes, unable to use their evil eyes.
Come to think of it, there was a phallic charm to defend against evil eyes, meaning that the charm really worked against gorgons. [TL: Phallic charm=p*nis shaped souvenir]
「Ufufufu. It seems this stimulus is too much for the gorgons who never held a man before thanks to their ability to turn creatures into stone.」
「Ah… Yes…」
Ishtar’s remark hit my sore spot.
Phallic charm aside, in my opinion, it was just your usual sexual harassment.
The gorgons were trying to escape since the harassment was simply too much for them. The Lamias who saw the gorgons current state were also bewildered. We sealed the evil eyes, but what’s with this empty sense of victory…
Rather, I suddenly had this urge to help the poor and harassed gorgons instead. I mean, we had this kind of joke-like battle even though Reiji and Dahark fought like some sort of shounen manga protagonists.
The difference was too much.
「You seem to be really composed, Chiyuki. Are you used to seeing that?」
「NO!!」
I denied loudly, feeling the blood rushing to my face due to embarrassment.
I would never get used to seeing that.
Well, by PURE coincidence, I did see Reiji naked a few times in the past. There was also the time when Reiji came out naked from the bath along with Nao. Naturally, I reminded them of their improper behavior, but they ignored it. That’s why it wasn’t just once or twice I caught him naked during our journey.
BUT, there was no way I was going to get used to THAT.
That’s why my face flushed red when I saw Pistis.
Ishtar looked at me with an amused look on her face. She clearly enjoyed this situation. But, I wouldn’t be surprised by Pistis’ humble size. I mean, if Reiji was a rocket size, Pistis was an adorable bullet size one. I nodded as I compared their size in my mind.
「Chiyuki, something is approaching in our direction!! Dodge it!!」
Ishtar suddenly warned me with a loud voice.
「Eh?」
I, who was too engrossed in my own world, let out such a dumbfounded voice. By the time I noticed, it was already too late. Something came out from the sand right under our ship.
It toppled the ship.
Ishtar and the catfolk attendants were prepared and jumped off the ship without a hitch. But I, who reacted far too late, failed to jump off the ship in time. Suddenly, a giant hand came out from the sand, and caught me.
「KYAAAAAAAAA!!」
I unintentionally let out a shriek.
The grip was really strong. The owner of this hand brought me to their side. At that moment, I realized the identity of the owner of this hand. The owner of this hand was a giant, over six meters tall minotaur. His legs were replaced with a snake’s tail.
「No way!! Gigates (Earthen Giant)?!!!」
Gigates (Earthen Giants) was a superior race of giants comparable to that of Titus (Heavenly Giant). Their unique characteristic of their legs, which turned into snake tails, made them easier to identify. And superior giants had power rivaling that of the divine race. I had never expected that I would fail to detect the incoming enemy, a huge one on top of that.
「A-Aaah…」
The Gigate gripped me strongly. I tried to resist by increasing my body’s toughness with magic. But, even though the other party only used one hand, the Gigates’s brutal strength wasn’t just for show. I couldn’t escape from his grip.
Even if I called for help, Reiji had his hands full with fighting Dahark. Ishtar and co couldn’t come to save me since another Gigates showed up and stopped them from saving me.
「Be obedient! Woman!!」
The Gigates readied his spear with his other hand.
Oh no!! I’m gonna get killed!!
That moment, I felt death was fast approaching.
Suddenly, something in white color rushed from the side and hit the Gigates’ head with a flying kick. And just like that, the Gigates was sent flying, and let go of me.
「KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!」
Someone caught me, who raised a shriek as I fell from the air.
And then, the one who caught me dropped me on the ground as they landed. I looked up to see the identity of my lifesaver. That person was draped in white cloth to hide their identity. This strange looking person should be the one who saved me from Gigates, right?
Their appearance was so strange that I normally wouldn’t approach someone with this kind of appearance in a normal situation.
Who was this person I wonder?
Why did this person save me?
The person who was covered in white cloth from head to toe looked down at me with a gentle look in their eyes. As if they said “Are you okay?”.
「WHO’S THERE!!! WHO IN THE HELL ARE YOUUUUUUUUUUUU!!?」
The Gigates who got sent flying by the person in white cloth screamed.
It seems they got pissed off after being sent flying with a kick. The Gigates unleashed wind from their entire body.
The cloth of the one who saved me swayed along with the wind.
When I strained my eyes to see through my savior’s identity.
「Eh?」
Under that white cloth, that person was stark naked.
When that person’s clothes swayed due to the wind, I saw SOMETHING dangling RIGHT in front of me.
For a moment, I had no idea what it was.
But a few seconds later, I knew what it was.
Something that was one size bigger than Reiji’s, both in terms of length and girth, was swaying due to the wind right in front of me.
No way…
What kind of aberration was this?
If Reiji was rocket sized, my savior’s size was WMD sized. [TL: For your information, WMD is a weapon of mass destruction, otherwise known as a nuclear bomb.]
The WMD sized monster that swayed with the wind grazed the tip of my nose.
「KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!! SNAKEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!」
I raised another scream due to shock.
