TDADP chapter 216: The weakest race

「Waa. Is that all of the monsters?」

「No matter how you put it, they are just too many」

Fallen demon Monique couldn’t hide her surprise from the dust cloud caused by the group of monsters seen on the horizon. Yam from the deprived people was not so much in that number, but he didn’t think he could cope with them alone.

「The trial that Odono-sama gave us. A simple trial would be meaningless」

「I, I’m getting nervous」

「Beibu is worried. You should think more easily」

「That’s impossible」

Despite his physique, which is larger than Flavia, Flavia is annoyed by the appearance of Beibu, who speaks with a miserable voice and spanks his butt.

「Waa!? Fl, Flavia, what are you doing?」

「You have such a huge figure and are so pathetic!」

「I, I know....... Ho, However, it’s not good for a girl to hit a guy’s butt」

「Noisy!」

「WaaWaa. Do, Don’t kick me～」

It is unusual for Flavia to take such an attitude to someone other than Agafon, but despite the fact that he has a solid ability as a guardian, the appearance of a sissy Beibu is annoying.

「Flavia is right. Beibu should be more confident. You’re the lifeline of our party」

Slap.

「Beibu is――」

Slap.

「When I went to 『Golgo Labyrinth』――」

Slap.

「Agafon, why do you ignore it?」

One of the slave maid apprentices, a wolf girl named Grafira, squeezes into Agafon as soon as she can no longer keep silent.

「An? What is it?」

「What is it? Ekaterina and I have been prepared since a while ago, and we want to play around now」

Grafira is usually a woman who talks less, but when it comes to her subordinate demon, Ekaterina, she quickly becomes noisy. That subordinate demon――shadow wolf Ekaterina was still looking eagerly shaking her tail and looking up at Agafon with her crisp eyes.

「We aren’t here to play. Can we even care about Eka? In the first place, how can you bring a dog in spite of being a maid?」

「I’m not a maid. I´m a slave maid apprentice. And Ekaterina is not a dog but a wolf, a shadow wolf. And what’s wrong with me having a beast tamer job. I’ve got permission from master and older sister」

「You don’t usually talk at all, but when a dog gets involved, you get noisy」

「I’m saying it’s not a dog. I’ve brought Ekaterina with me for a reason. Ekaterina wants to be with older sister´s follower Coro. Don’t you think it’s sad to leave her behind?」

「Oof. What do you think? It’s an important test for us now」

Agafon was a grim talker, but he was patting Ekaterina´s head. This man is blunt, but he’s good at taking care of someone.

「Roughly, why are you here?」

Grafira, who was struggling with Agafon, who was patting Ekaterina´s head, who looks happy to be taken care of by Agafon, looks back to follow Agafon’s line of sight. There were a lot of slave maid apprentices, including Tin and Vanamo. Among the slave maid apprentices, there was even the figure of Namari, who kneads her cheeks like a balloon.

「Even though I was good to Odono-sama」

「Well, don’t be so sulky like that」

「That’s right. Master has high hopes for Namari, so he left this big role to him」

The fox girl with almond-shaped eyes and the raccoon girl with drooping eyes comfort Namari and comb Namari’s messy hair with a comb.

「......Really?」

「Yes」

「Truth」

「I understand! I’ll do my best!!」

Namari, who was sulky, got motivated and took a triumphant pose with a smiling face.

「You spoke well」

「As expected you can only receive love from Master」

Namari gets more motivated when she gets complimented by them.

「Why are we here? Don’t you know that?」

Vanamo looked down on Agafon as if to make a fool of him, but in the stigma of Vanamo, it was impossible for her to look down on Agafon. In fact, she is pulling on the tiptoe now.

「Hey. What do you mean, Chibi assistant!」

「Wh, Who is the Chibi assistant? We are here in case you fail to subdue the monsters. I want you to do your best so as not to disappoint Master and Older sister by exposing an unsightly appearance」

Vanamo said she was going to subdue the monster swarm, but what Yuu told Agafon´s party was to deal with the monster’s flock. Vanamo and her people were ordered to observe and report how Agafon´s party moved, thought, and responded to the flock of demons, rather than wiping their asses when they failed. In the first place, the role of wiping their butt was given to Namari.

「Even if you don’t tell me, I’m going to do my best. If we can get a good result here, Leader said that we could explore the C-ranked 『Bewitching Tree Garden Labyrinth』」

「Everyone can do it if you say it. You have been entrusted with the smallest flock of monsters, and the ranks of those monsters are 3 to 4. We’ll see if you really can get good results. Older sister is going to deal with a large group of monsters that can’t be compared to here, with Nina-san. It will be a group of monsters driven by the wood dragon, perhaps more than a million」

「You´re really a noisy Chibi assistant. If we fail, I don’t think you can do it」

Vanamo lifts her skirt with a fearless smile to those words that can be taken as a provocation by Agafon. Immediately after that, hundreds of spiders hanging down on threads appear as if to respond to Vanamo´s movement. That is not all. From the skirt, there was a sound of feathers that seemed to fuel uneasiness ranging around.

「We’ve been trained mainly by older sister, but even if monsters are our opponents, we can fight better than you. Ariane has the job of 『Magic Warrior』, and Pokori has a job of 『Illusion Warrior』. With one powerful illusion magician, it is fine, but if you have two, you can expand the effect to a wide range」

Fox girl Ariane and raccoon girl Pokori were crazy about pampering Namari, even though their names came out of Vanamo’s mouth.

「Tin and Melanie will be in close-range, and Grafira will be in close range and medium-range in cooperation with her followers. I will use insects――kyaa!? Tin, what are doing!!!」

Vanamo jumped, holding her butt punched by Tin with her hand.

「Vanamo is talkative. It’s not good to talk about our abilities because the other party is Agafon. If older sister knows this, you’ll be scolded by her. Now, I do it」

「Ah....... I’m sorry」

Vanamo apologizes honestly to Tin, who has a sharp eye. Tin looks into Vanamo’s face from below and suddenly grabs Vanamo’s chest.

「Kyaaa! Wh, WhWh, What are you doing!!」

「I’ll forgive you for this. I’m still bigger and more relieved」

Agafon heads to Flavia and the others aside from Vanamo and Tin, who make noise.

「Flavia, how about the installation of traps?」

「I’ve set up at all the places that they seem to pass by. But if they spread that much, the traps will be cut in half」

「Th, That’s not good. Akane, you used a fair level of 『Fairy Magic』? Please guide the herd of demons with a wide range of illusions」

Akane, who was lying on Monique’s head, stood up.

「No」

「I see. Then, wh――aaatt? Why?」

「I hate disgusting things」

Akane keeps her face up and keeps an eye on Agafon. Agafon looks at Monique and asks if she knows anything.

「Akane. She doesn’t want to be seen using 『Fairy Magic』」

「Hey! Monique, don’t say anything unnecessary!」

「I think you´re cute. Well, I put my hands on my hips and fluffed my butt, and the chanting was puripuripuraaa, uh? Was it puririnpuririnpura? It’s so cute like that――Itatatata」

「Even though it’s Monique, I’m not going easy!」

「I’m sorry, sorry」

Monique, who was bitten on the head by Akane, raised her hands just as she surrendered. Next to Akane and Monique, who are interacting like a comedy show, Otope was also talking seriously with Nepora.

「You will get through the trials that Odono-sama has given you」

「I know it even if you don’t say it. When I get over this trial, I will be able to gain another credit from Odono-sama. The accumulation will eventually lead to the trust of the demi-human」

「That’s right. It’s no exaggeration to say that it will rest on your shoulders to see if the demi-humans will run on the battlefield alongside Odono-sama. Keep in mind that even a small blunder is not allowed」

Nepora throws harsh words on her husband Otope, but when she notices that Otope’s clothes are messy, she fixes them. It was the tiger woman Melanie who looked at them enviably.

「Nepora is good. I also want a partner」

「Melanie you will also find your partner」

「Gra-chan, that’s easy to say」

「I told you to stop calling me like that」

「There is no older sister here. We don’t need to be so formal」

「On the contrary, because there is no older sister, we need more behavior than usual. Our shame will be a disgrace to older sister and master」

「I know that. But if you always keep your shoulders and elbows high, you’ll get lost when it’s important」

「Is it like that?」

「It’s like that」

Grafira felt as if Melanie had beaten her, but calmed herself down by stroking the head of her follower, shadow wolf.

「A, Agafon. We’ve got to move now」

「All right. Hey, you guys, let’s go!」

When the command of Agafon was given, everyone’s face transformed into a warrior’s face heading to the battlefield, as if it were a lie.

-----------------------------

On the other hand, Yuu, who is acting differently from Agafon´s party and Nina´s group, left the village and proceeded to the open plain. The monsters will swallow the fields and village as well as Yuu in less than five minutes. However, Yuu doesn’t panic and creates a gate with 『Space Time Magic』 and connects it to the mansion. It was Kuro, who had been waiting in advance in the mansion, when he appeared from the gate. After that, two disturbing insects who came out while not being called continued.

「Master. It’s impossible for this biting louse to win over the wood dragon, and it wouldn’t be an upset victory. If you leave it to me, I will bring a certain victory to Master. Please reconsider」

「Oh, this is the gate. It’s very different from what I saw in Comer city」

Yuu decided to ignore Russ and Joseph. In this situation where a group of monsters and the wood dragon are approaching, Yuu is not bothering to deal with them.

「I’ll give you a try on how strong you have become」

A natural force enters Kuro’s hand. That should be it, Yuu is telling the goblin, which is said to be the weakest race among the monsters, to take down the wood dragon.

「Ah, that’s right. Because there is still a grandmother and a kid who haven’t left the village yet, don’t let any monster pass through」

「No, certainly......」

「I see」

「Does Master think a certain someone can beat the wood dragon?」

Kuro knew that he shouldn’t listen, but he couldn’t help hearing it. If you ask the residents of Comer City if a goblin can beat a dragon, 100 out of a hundred would say it is impossible. The answer would be the same, even if one hundred million people were to be asked. There was so much difference in power between a goblin and a dragon. On the contrary, replacing the goblin with an ogre will be said to have the same result.

「Don’t get me wrong. I told you to show me how strong you’ve become. I know you’re going to win against the wood dragon. I’m telling you to show me how to win」

Kuro shakes his whole body as if thunder ran through it. Yuu, who is his master, believes that he will win against the dragon and has no doubts. When he first heard that the opponent was not a dragon but a wood dragon, even the undead Kuro was not hiding his doubts.

Even so――Kuro’s whole body has power. It is not an illusion. He makes sure to win against the dragon――no. Don’t just win. He can report to Yuu with a chest full of pride. It’s a good way to name one servant. He is going to give Yuu a victory that isn’t shameful.

「Even though it’s a good thing, a dragon is a dragon. If you make light of it, you will get hurt」

「Why is it true?」

「All dragon-related skills are level 1. Therefore――」

Yuu didn’t keep speaking until the end. It was because he decided that he wouldn’t have to tell Kuro who was going to fight from now on.

「What are you going to do? Do you want to give it a grant magic?」

「No, I don’t think so. Let’s see and slaughter the wood dragon splendidly only by individual power」

As Kuro squeezes his weapons with both hands, he kicks the ground. The appearance which faced the flock of monsters was a black arrow that flew straight towards its target.
