I face the arm demon. The AR indication has changed from Uusu to Demon kin. On the space for the name, phonetic symbols lined up instead of normal letters.
Has Uusu been swallowed completely?
Checking the AR while keeping the demon in sight, the beast kin girls status has also changed to [Master : none].
"You bastard, who are you? I am uncomfortable."
"A confirmation for now, you're not Uusu but a demon right?"
"Wa, wait! I am Uusu! Please take off this arm, I don't want to die! Please help!!"
Huh? Is his consciousness intact?
When I think of that for a moment, the arm demon [launches] three poisonous nails.
"Mufufufufu~. Humans always react this way~ I am thrilled."
I block the poisonous nails with the stake in the nick of time. The stake changes color and crumbles in a moment.
"Unununu, you blocked that, I am astonished!"
I pick up a holy stone on the ground. Should I weaken him with this?
The man's jaw start to transform to look like a wolf.
Before the transformation complete, I throw the stone at him but it was blocked with the poisonous claw.
"Fushurururu~. It's easier to talk now. I am excited ♪"
Here, it's painful to hear your way of speaking though.
"■■■ ."
Spear of light formed from thin air flies from the handsome middle-aged priest.
"I ridicule."
The arm demon roars, wall of darkness erupts and divert the course of the light spear.
As I thought, he's not only able to talk easier but also able to use magic now.
"Everyone, please quickly get away from this square! Attack magic is incoming!!!"
I desperately raise my voice to tell the people who are peeking the square!
>[Loudspeaker Skill Acquired]
"All the panic, fear, anxiety, prejudice, arrogance since earlier are truly splendid! I am satisfied."
I'm going to be fine, but at this rate, the beastkin girls are going to die if left alone.
An especially large long roar comes out of the arm demon.
"Therefore, let this place become moi nesting ground. Aren't you happy? I service!"
Should I carry the beastkin girls on my shoulder and run? It can't be helped if I attract attention.
Consequently, while having such needless worry, the situation is changing rapidly.
The ground below is warping like special effects from Showa era shows. Even though the ground is hard, it's flashing dark violet light, warping, twisting, stretching... and the flash [Darken].
◇
When the light settles, I was in a place that look like a cave. Beside the ground which is unchanged, everything else look like bare rocks. In the space of around 10 Meter in radius, I see an exit on one of the wall.
I can somehow see it thanks to the faint purple light coming from the floor.
People who are here include me, the still-chained dog and cat girl I carry in my arms and the lizard girl on my shoulder.
The handsome middle-aged priest and the arm demon who were nearby before, aren't here.
"Welcome to moi Labyritnth. It still doesn't have name, and monsters are being created right now, you can thank moi for it. I am diligent!"
The arm demon's voice are coming from somewhere. It doesn't seem like telepathy.
The dog girl is pointing at the corner of the ceiling. It seems that the voice is coming from the air hole there.
"For the sake of moi complete revival, experience fear at your heart's content. Kill each other! Snatch everything. I encourage!"
After pausing for a bit, the arm demon continues.
"The souls of those who resigns are thin, I hate."
"Therefore, every room are connected to the exit and moi room. I am fair."
"I am expecting the despair that come after the hope. Strive, fodders! I encourage!"
...I see.
This is like the forced event [Escape from the Labyrinth Mission] in video game. Outbreak! That kind of feeling.
Phew.
