"...is it a little too much?"
"Glu?"

　The remains of the sandworm scattered around... or rather mutter in many parts.
　One of the worst was Ray's first powerslash-splashed sandworm head. They were scattered about in pieces of meat, some centimeters to several tens of centimeters.
　Fortunately, the smell of blood is being blown away by the wind because of the vast desert, but there is still a smell of blood all around.
　It's strong enough to detect if not Ray, whose senses are more developed than normal humans.

"...that's a little too much indeed."

　Elena said so, shaking away the sandworm's blood and fluid from the blade of the connected sword.
　In addition, unlike Ray and Seto, who have crushed the head of the sandworm, Elena shows the cleverness of the sword by cutting only the head beautifully with a connecting sword.
　If you show it to Ray, he can't say anything.

"First of all, I will recover the body of the Sandworm, and Spear Frog?"
"Grull?"
"What?"

　Elena pauses along the way, and at the same time Seto and Ray notice something unusual.
　No, considering the Bandette Goblin Mage case, it's not going to be unusual. It's just that something is approaching us.

"Is this... here!"

　It doesn't move through the ground like a sandworm, or through the sky like a flying monster.
　Kick the desert ground, he sensed a jumping presence rather than a flying one.
　Even though it's still a long way off, the only reason we could sense it was because the approaching partner was huge.
　Furthermore, as if to pursue the presence that is moving towards us, a few people are approaching.
　The gigantic being has a sandy body color. If that were the case, it could have been mistaken for a protective color against the desert. However, if the size is large enough to be seen, it cannot be mistaken.
　Use the strength of your strong hind legs to jump over a distance of almost 10 meters with one kick. It was evident from the successive jumps that he was still not doing his best.

"I suppose Spear Frog is a strange species."
"Oh, perhaps,"

　When Elena asks to confirm, Ray nods as well.
　By Ray's side, he's already squatted down so he can cope with Spear Frogs coming at any time.
　Ray and Elena had never seen a monster called Spear Frog in person, but they couldn't possibly mistake a giant frog-shaped monster about 3m in length.
　But it didn't matter. I can even say that I'm more than happy that the target appeared in front of me.
　The reason they looked so amused was because they were chasing Spear Frog.

"But... it's following me from behind."
"... oh. They're definitely Vihelas."

　Elena's words back to Ray's words.
　Yes, behind Spear Frog, who was coming straight towards us, was the figure of Vihela and Bune.
　There should have been porters, but they were probably left at their speed. They are galloping through the desert at that rate to chase Spear Frog ahead of them.

"Well, at any rate... strangely enough, as Vihela said, we will fight Spear Frog together."
"...Vyhela has moved in a completely different direction from us in the first place, so why do you meet us here?"

　While talking to each other, they wait for Spear Frog, who is heading towards them with a death-size and a connected sword.
　If possible, I'd like to knock him down with the first blow.

"It's good that you found the target, but you ran after it, didn't you?"
"Why, then, should the target be straight towards us... oh, I see."

　He looks at the body of the sandworm and nods convincingly.
　Yes, a piece of meat of the sandworm which gives off a strong smell of blood.
　With Elena's attitude, Ray must have quickly realized what was the cause. He twitched his cheeks, but looked back as if it were his last hope.
　a much smaller but still visible oasis
　If it's a frog-shaped monster, I suspect it's on its way to an oasis in search of water.

"Would you like to bet?"
"No, I won't,"

　As he turned to the oasis, he probably understood that the smell of sandworm blood and meat was the cause. Shrugging his shoulders slightly, he looked at Spear Frog, who had already shrunk to about 100 meters... and noticed his presence.
　It's not the Vihelas following Spear Frogs who are heading towards them, it's a myriad of small herds just between Spear Frogs and Vichelas.
　Regardless of its size, the difference in appearance is little different from that of the spear frog, the leading species.

(I mean, that's the ordinary spear frog.)

　If so, then.
　Ray thought of using magic to kill the abnormal species for a moment, but his distance to Spear Frog has already shrunk rapidly and is under 20 meters.
　You can conclude that you are still far enough away, if you think about it normally, but you're the one who jumps 10 meters. There was no time for spells.
　But Ray still has the means to attack long distances. It's a death-size killing, or...
　Place the death size in your hand on the desert and take the spear out of the mistling.
　It is a cheap spear with a half‐missing ear, and a completely useless spear for a conventional weapon. But Ray could reuse it as a powerful disposable weapon.

(Even so, there are only about 50 left.) I will visit arms stores and blacksmiths to replenish them later.)

　Hold your spear like a javelin throw, twist your upper body and think like that.
　He turned to Elena just in case, followed by two of his best friends who were chasing Spear Frog.
　That alone would have made sense of what Ray was asking for. shout attention to

"Bune, Vihela, now Rey will attack you, so be careful not to get involved!"

　You must have heard the voice. Vichela and Bune, who were running after the giant Spear Frog and the regular Spear Frog, stopped their movement, raising a cloud of sand.
　After confirming this, Ray saw Spear Frog reach the bodies of the sandworms that were around him more precisely in one leap after a distance of about 10 meters...

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

　Throw your spear with a shout of spirit.
　Spear Frog leaps through the desert and is skewered because he cannot avoid it.
　At least Ray was half sure that it would happen, and so was Elena, who had a connecting sword next to her, just in case.
　Then, in fact, the spear thrown by Ray's extraordinary force hits Spear Frog in the air. But...

"What!"

　Elena let out an involuntary cry of surprise.
　Yes, the spear, which was released as if it were penetrating the air itself, certainly hit the mark. But the next moment he hits Spear Frog's right flank, he slides on the surface of his body as if it were a lie.
　I couldn't see Spear Frog from afar, but once I got this close, I could see the oily fluid secreted on its surface and glistening. The oil had slipped the tip of a spear that had flown through the air and flown it in the wrong direction.
　Still, the good news of the misfortune would have been that the tip of the spear was rusted and half chipped. It was a slight cut on Spear Frog's side.
　If this were an ordinary spear, it would not have been swept away by Spear Frog's fluid because the blades were neatly aligned.

"Ray!"

　After throwing his spear with all his might, he grabs Ray's hand and forces him to move.
　Sett is also following Ray with a death size on the ground, and seconds after he disappears... Spear Frog lands just where Ray was.
　Perhaps Spear Frog couldn't forgive himself for breaking through his proud body fluid, but instead turned his face from the landing point to the moving Seto, looking at the frog's unique thoughts.
　At the same time...

"Here he comes!""Ah!"

　Elena responded briefly to Ray's voice and two and one jumped backward from where he stood.
　The next moment Spear Frog's mouth opens, from which Ray's spears and tongues, released at such a rate, scoop through the desert sand.
　with two sharp tongues divided from the base into two, as if to prove themselves to be abnormal.

"Gero!"

　Avoiding the attack, Spear Frog puts his tongue back into his mouth with a muffled cry.

"Grull!"

　Seto throws his death size into Ray and jumps forward.
　as if one were going to deal with him

"Ray! You can't be so fussy about that!"

　Elena, speaking to Ray, looks in the direction of Spear Frog's flight.
　From there, a normal size spear frog is shrinking the distance, and the distance has already been reduced to about 10 meters.
　For a moment, Ray hesitated about which opponent to deal with, but he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Vihela move forward from behind Spear Frog's flock with her claws growing from the back of her hand and cut Spear Frog.
　Bune is also stabbing and knocking down Spear Frog from behind.

"I'll leave the rest to Elena. There's a Vihela coming from behind."

　Spear Frog sticks out his tongue again, trying not to let him finish. Lei's tongue, which cuts through the air and penetrates his body, is forced to pull back on the right side of his body to avoid it.
　the edge of a scythe at the same time
　But the tongue itself will be free to move freely. The tip part of the tongue, which is divided into two parts from the base, is bumped against each other to avoid the trajectory of a slashing.

"Ringling!"

　As if to take the opportunity, Seto, who had been jumping up, attacks from above, but with Vihela and Beune in his presence, he cannot use his skills. I tried to strike a blow to my head from my heavy forefoot. . . . . . .

"Glu!?"

　Rarely... yes, it makes a very unusual, bewildered cry.
　This is because the blow, which was originally supposed to smash the head, was swept away with a smooth feeling as soon as it touched the spear frog.
　The stray blow hits the ground and creates a massive sand column.

"That fluid again!"

　One turn on the spot without killing the dead-size force that missed a blow, clapping one's tongue at the scene caught in the corner of one's vision. But when he sees the sand falling in the air as a pillar of sand, he smiles and shakes his death-size again.

"Fly off!"

　The slashing, released without killing the momentum of the turn, flew straight towards Spear Frog. . . . .

"Gee-ge- "Slap!"-

　Cutting off his right forefoot, Ray spreads out the wound that he just made with his spear and flies into the sky without killing the momentum.

"I'm too confident in my defense.

　Why was Spear Frog so easily amputated when he missed even a spear or set blow? It is said that Ray's flying cut was higher and more powerful than before, but at the same time, the sand that had been blown up into the sky by a blow from Seto fell on the surface of Spear Frog's body fluid.
　Of course, there is Spear Frog, which lives in the desert, and it doesn't have much effect on its defenses even if some sand sticks to it. But it's just that much, not that it doesn't have a complete impact. He was able to shoot more than just a little bit, resulting in the loss of his right front and back legs.
　Spear Frog, who could no longer stand in the desert, collapsed to the ground and cut off his last two tongues. Shaking down a magical death-size blade, Spear Frog is extinguished from the flame of his life.
