Beast Tamer Who Got Kicked Out From the Hero’s Party Chapter 94 Part 2
CHAPTER 94 PART 2
「…… Oh, that? Yeah, sorry about that, but that stuff is not going to work on me.」
Thanks to the contract with Luna, I now had the ability to ‘Completely nullify the negative status effect’.
And as luck would have it, it was the effect that was not only limited to Instant Death spells.
So there was no way that a Paralysis debuff was going to work on me now.
「N-No way! That’s impossible! It’s ridiculous……! Someone like that kid possessing a high level of resistance against status effects!? No, there’s no way……. There’s absolutely no way that a normal human being would be able to possess something like that……! B-But if that’s so, then what is that!? An item at work!? Could it be that you saw this coming in advance and……?」
「Welp, I guess you can say it’s something alongside those lines.」
There is no need for me to even bother explaining what this was actually all about.
Some aces are better left being unsaid.
Since it seems to be a misunderstanding, I didn’t have any obligation to correct them and left it at that.
「Guh…… No way! There is no way that we are going to lose to someone like you guys!」
It would seem that Kreutz’s fighting spirit was pretty much in shambles at the current moment, but in contrast, Ogg did not look as if he was about to give up just yet.
He was hit so hard in the abdomen that any normal Adventurer would have surely been knocked out cold about now.
But with the sheer power of guts and stubbornness, not only did he manage to stay conscious, but he was also able to get up.
He got back up and almost right away leapt forward while swinging his sword.
Being a C Rank Adventurer, it was bound to be a sharp and dangerous blow.
What’s more, Kanade and I were caught off guard by that, so surely he thought that even though I was able to move, I wouldn’t be able to avoid it.
Normally, that attack would have surely been a Sure-Kill blow.
…… Normally being the operative word here.
「I’m still numb all over, but…… I can still move to at least some extent…… Unyah!」
「…… What the!?」
Kanade’s fist was able to strike at Ogg’s blade, deflecting it effortlessly.
From Ogg’s point of view, it must have been a truly unbelievable sight.
It caught him completely off guard. even though he thought that his attack was going to be the surprise one.
And yet, we were able to defend against it. His sure-hit blow was blocked and deflected.
It’s not like Kanade knew that he was going to be caught off guard because of that.
Honestly, both Ogg and I were pretty sure that Kanade was unable to move for the time being.
And yet, Kanade was able to prevent Ogg’s attack from happening.
Why was that?
The answer to that was awfully simple.
Kanade noticed Ogg’s attack and acted immediately.
With her super reflexes and superhuman speed unthinkable for an ordinary person, she blocked Ogg’s attack.
Kanade’s power lies in a realm that ordinary humans could never hope to reach.
After witnessing this, it seemed that Ogg did not intend to resist us any further.
He slumped down with his sword in his hands and only shook his head in disbelief.
「However, just to be on the safe side, we can’t possibly leave you guys like that, now can we?」
I took out the wire from Narukami and tied up both Ogg and Kreutz with it so they couldn’t move.
「Now then, the rest should be……」
「Rein, we’re back!」
Tanya came in with Nina in tow.
I couldn’t quite see the poachers with them, but then, does that mean……?
「…… Oh, those guys? I made sure they wouldn’t be able to escape, so you can rest assured of that.」
「What kind of rope did you use to tie them up?」
「Huh? I would never do something so utterly troublesome. I just threatened them with another fireball if they tried to escape and they went unconscious in just one shot.」
「Oh……」
If she was to say something like that, it was a small wonder that the poachers would have no choice but to behave and comply.
Because Tanya’s fireballs tended to be quite powerful and destructive……
.
I don’t think I’ll ever want to taste anything like that ever again.
「Also, it was thanks to Nina’s huge help.」
「Nina’s?」
「We just showed them what her Pocket Dimension is like, and said that those who would not behave would be thrown in there indefinitely.」
「Just to make sure…… You wouldn’t do something like that, would you……?」
「Oh course not. We were just bluffing, bluffing. But you know what? It worked like a charm!」
.
「…… Y-Yeah.」
Small wonder. Being thrown into a Pocket Dimension, something well beyond human comprehension, was something that no one would like to experience if they could help it.
「We’re back!」
「Sorry for keeping you waiting.」
Sora and Luna, who had been surveilling our surroundings, also just returned.
「Hm? What’s the matter? Was there a problem on your end?」
「No, it’s nothing.」
「If we had to say something, it would only be that some first animals were attracted to the commotion.」
「Some monsters were drawn to the area as well, but we took care of them easily.」
「Thanks, you two. You two have given me a lot of peace of mind, and I could focus on the fight because of that.」
「Fufun! Yes, praise me some more! You can even stroke my head if you want!」
「Luna! Don’t get carried away because of something like that!」
The calm atmosphere returned to the forest, as if to signal the end of the conflict.
Well now…… It was about time we found out why those two decided to act they way they did……
It’s interrogation time!
