「Hurry up and hide!」
Labriatt instructed me while glaring at the volcrows .
「Are they going to attack us?」
It was possible that their goal laid somewhere else, right?
「They like to attack us elves, so you need to fall back . 」
Just as he said that, the volcrows began to descend upon us .
They were diving down at very high speeds, so Labriatt already began bracing himself for the coming assault, and I fell behind him to give him support .
Now that monsters were here, I shouldn’t run away and leaving him to fend for himself, but I also didn’t want to get in Labriatt’s way .
Labriatt shot some wind magic at the volcrows in front, but they quickly dispersed and dodged it completely then spread out and surrounded us .
「You don’t have to worry about me!」
I yelled at him and got ready to deal with any volcrows coming at me .
Labrilata briefly looked at me before turning back, only saying, 「Okay」 .
Just like Labriatt, I also used wind magic on the four volcrows that came diving at me .
As my Wind Cutters flew at them, the volcrows attempted to dodge, but at this range and the speed of my magic, which was considerably faster than Labriatt’s, it was more or less impossible for them to do so . They were all sliced in half and dropped to the ground .
I then looked over at Labriatt’s side, and saw that he did hit three volcrows himself, but there were still three left . They circled back to the sky, so I got ready for another dive, but they just kept flying away . Labriatt tried shooting them down from a distance but sadly fell short .
「Shit!」
Labriatt sweared and furiously glared in the direction they escaped at .
They had already left the range of my detection magic, so chasing them would be quite hard .
Labriatt calmed himself down after a while and turned to me .
「Thanks for helping me . It would be hard to deal with them if you didn’t take four of them down like that . 」
「Still, we let some get away . 」
「That’s okay . We have other elves patrolling the area, and they should be able to take down them down easily as long as they aren’t taken by surprise . 」
Certainly, the volcrows could easily be taken down if one was capable of using magic . They were quite dangerous to those who couldn’t use it, though . Well, elves generally knew how to use magic, so they should be fine .
「I need to head back to the village to report this . What about you?」
「I’ll stay here . 」
「Alright, if any trouble shows up, run towards the village, okay?」
Labriatt told me and then quickly disappeared into the forest, leaving my Bears and me behind, next to seven dead volcrows on the ground .
Could I maybe make some money by selling them?
Before that, was it even okay for me to take them?
Well, if they ever asked me to hand them over, I would, but for now, I decided to just put them into my Bear Box .
I then turned Swaying Bear and Hugging into their cub forms before heading into the Bear House as it would be much easier to relax there .
The moment I sat down on the sofa, Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear immediately curled up by my sides: their default spots when there were no guests around .
After simply relaxing for a while, I took out the Bear Phone and called Fina .
She should be at home right now, helping Terumi-san with housework, but she wasn’t picking up .
I did tell her not to answer if there were people over, so maybe they had some guests at their house right now
Just as I was about to cut the connection, Fina finally picked up .
「Hello, Fina?」
『Yuna-oneechan?』
Great, I managed to get to her .
It was pretty amazing how we could still communicate over such a large distance .
As expected of one of the God’s cheat skills, I should say .
Well, my former world had satellite cell phones, so it was possible to call anyone from almost anywhere, but this was still impressive for this place .
Hmm, now that I thought about it, how exactly did it even work?
「Are you busy?」
『No, I’m fine right now . I’ve just finished doing the laundry and cleaning around the house, so I’m currently resting . 』
Okay, she had the time to chat, then .
「Anything weird happened back home?」
『No, not really . How are things on your side?』
「We reached the Elf Village safely . 」
『That’s great, you’ve reached it already . I would love to see it one day as well . 』
