It was certainly quite a lot. However, its still few compared from that incident at the Royal Capital.
With this, we were able to subdue almost all of the worms around the pyramid. Even if I confirm it using the Bear Detection Magic, there were hardly any of them left.
I think that its fine to leave them be if its just this much.
In the first place, its troublesome to move around just to defeat a single monster.
[Don’t take it in the pyramid. You’re gonna have to dismantle it here.] Jade
Jade-san mercilessly said to the tired Uragan.
[Do.. Don’t be stupid! You’re gonna let us do this amount alone!?] Uragan
[You made a deal. I’ll give you half of Yuna’s share and half of our share, so you’re going to do the dismantling.] Jade
Jade-san looks at Uragan.
Did you possibly knew the number of worms, Jade-san?
Is that why you made a deal like that?
Jade-san has to go into the pyramid with me and Karina anyway. But the worm’s processing is very essential. Did you think that by giving half of your share, you can get paid without participating in the dismantling work?
[You did said that, but…] Uragan
Uragan saw the countless worms lying on the desert sand.
Will they make it before the end of the day?
Well, unlike the wolves, worms have very little usable material, so if you take out the magic stone, you’ll just have to burn it to keep the other monsters from getting close.
So it shouldn’t take much time to dismantle a single worm. However, the amount is large. Also we’re in the middle of the desert.
It’s a place where you don’t want to take your sweet time doing dismantling work.
[I think you’ll be fine after doing a few minutes of work.] Jade
[Damn, I’ll do it. But we’ll get a better share.] Uragan
Certainly, in this subjugation, they seem to have earned more than a few rewards. Uragan, who noticed it, reluctantly accepts Jade-san’s words.
His party did not complain because their leader Uragan consented.
Well, if you don’t do your best at dismantling work, you’ll be in trouble if the other monsters came.
For the time being, I’ll go back to where Karina is.
The original purpose is to take Karina into the pyramid. However, the worms were almost exterminated, so we can proceed to the pyramid with a peace of mind.
While we’re moving towards Karina, Swaying Bear turns to the right.
[What’s wrong? ] Yuna
The sand moves.
A worm?
I’m looking at the Bear Detection Magic, there is indeed a worm at a distance.
Swaying Bear cries with caution.
[Swaying Bear, it’s okay.] Yuna
If it comes here, I’ll kill it. You can leave it alone.
Huh? I think, a small sand dune is getting closer and closer. The movement of the sand gradually grows. Everyone noticed that.
[What?] Uragan
The moment I thought that a small wave of sand had occurred, the sand surged and a huge sandworm emerged from the sand.
[What the!] Jade
[There’s such a big one?!] Uragan
A sandworm about the size of a worm that I killed before appeared.
So this is what made Swaying Bear wary.
It was a big sandworm that appeared, when I thought it was just a normal sandworm. The Bear Detection Magic also only tags it as sandworm.
As was the case with the bees the other day, I want it to be able to distinguish between ordinary worms and big worms. This is where the Detection Magic is not flexible.
I faced the worm.
Maybe it’s a parent or something? The parent is here, because the normal worm’s corpses are gathered?
Or was it born here?
Even so, the worm gets worse as it gets bigger. That sticky saliva was the most unpleasant.
[Yuna-chan!] Mel
[Shit, let’s get out of here.] Uragan
[Yuna! What are we going do now?] Jade
Mel-san is screaming behind me.
