A desert goblin-like monster is aiming at a child who has fallen in the desert.
The camel is frightened, and I have to help him!
„'Sand Spear'!"
The flying 'Sand Spear' pierces the goblin. Alright! I thought, but more goblins appeared from the sand.
Do these guys hide in the sand? This was a behaviour not seen from goblins in the empire.
They also started appearing from around me. They are trying to take him while I'm distracted by this goblin.
But I won't let them do that.
„Sand Magic – 'Sandstorm'!"
When I use 'Sandstorm', the sand rolls up in a spiral. With that momentum, the wind was born and the surrounding goblins were caught up in it.
Good! With this I've cleared up most of the goblins! All that is left is that goblin.
„Sand Magic – 'Sand Ring'" (TN: literal translation is circular sand wheel (or Circle Sand Ring) 円砂輪)
I made a rotating sand ring and it flew toward goblin. This magic has a wide range of movement. A sand ring that flew in an arc cut clean through the goblin.
Alright, please don't come out of the sand anymore. It seems that I have defeated them all. Nothing is left from the defeated goblins. Even if something was, I can't eat it and I don't want to eat it.
After making sure I defeated them all, I run up to the person who is lying down. I slightly shifted the robe and saw that this child is not him, but her, yeah, it was a girl! And she is really beautiful—
I instantly fell in love with her. But I must stop thinking about that and help her.
„Ngoo"
The camel looks worried. I wonder if it was this camel that brought the child all the way here.
„I'll help you, relax. Come with me."
„Ngo? Ngongo!"
You can see that camel is happy. Alright, I put the girl on a camel and start moving using 'Sazanami'.
„Ngo!? Ngooooooo!"
„It's okay. I am using magic."
The camel started to panic when we started moving on the sand waves. But it seems that he understood when I explained it.
"Ngo ♪ Ngo ♪"
Seeing camel having fun like that, it came to my mind how fun it is to travel on sand waves. We can see it now, sand castle came into our view.
„I will take you to the castle."
„Ngooooo!"
When I told those words to the camel, the camel was so surprised that his eyeballs almost popped out. It looks like he was surprised by the sand castle.
„Ngoo!"
„You don't have to be so afraid. It's Golem that protects this area."
The camel was also surprised by the golem that is guarding the area around the castle. But when he realized that it wouldn't do anything, he started licking me. I had a little bit of sand on my cheek, but its fine since it was just little bit and I can go wash it later with water.
„Ngo…"
„Are you hungry? If so, I'll feed you later."
"Ngo ♪ Ngo ♪"
The camel was rubbing my head. Do you understand what I'm saying? It's a smart camel.
I laid the beautiful girl in a relatively airy and cool room. Beds are also made out of sand.
The quality of sand can be tampered with, and since I tampered with it to make it as soft as possible, this bed is also fluffy.
„Pee!Pee!"
„No, I still can't eat it because it's sand."
„Ngo.."
The camel was licking the bed and spitting again. I'm not sure if he is smart or not. He's cute though.
Well, she is pretty weak and the first thing I need to is give her some water. After that, I need to feed the camel. What does the camel eat? Is it grass after all?
„It's food, but does the camel eat meat?"
He shook his head. Then would you like to eat—
„The grass?"
He bobbed his head up and down. Is it grass after all? We also secured water and headed to water place together. He drank water very deliciously. He drank a good amount of water.
„You can eat the grass around here."
"Ngo ♪"
I was glad. After telling the golem to protect the camel, I returned to the room where the girl was with water.
„It's water, can you drink?"
Her throat rang when she tilted bottle made of sand which was filled with water against her mouth. It seems that she can drink it. I should let her drink it slowly.
You look a little better? But I don't think that she can talk yet. After all, there is not enough nutrition.
Would you like to have a meal? But now only meat is stored. The plants haven't grown up yet.
She needs something that is nutritious and easy to eat. I hope you'll get well soon.
I went out of the castle and expanded the range of 'Sand Detection'. Where's the food that meets these conditions—
There was an interesting reaction. Reactions of many organisms. But that's not all. I don't know what it is, but maybe it can help her.
It was just a premoniton, but I moved by using 'Sazanami'. I just surfed a distance that would take more than half a day on foot.
It came into a view. Is that an ant?
That's right, it's an ant. An ant whose body glows golden and a sturdy ant whose body glows black are fighting.
As far as I can see, it seems that golden ants are being attacked by black ants. And what I noticed is that the area around the butt of the golden ant is strangely swollen and rounded.
But that is not important right now. The golden ants are in bad shape. Surprisingly, the black ants are fighting with a spear in their hands.
Is it a monster? Anyway, I decided to help the golden ants.
„'Sand Geyser'!"
I use Sand Magic. The sand bursts out from right under the black ants, and the black ants were blown away.
„Agin!"
"Agi~!"
The ants that were struck with the sand, got up and ran away.
„Ah, ants?"
„Allie"
„Ali! Ali!"
Well, the golden ants were saved, but something came to me. I was wondering what is it, but they seem to be thanking me.
Well, I was worried about being bulged out like a ball, but If they are so happy that I helped them, I wouldn't be able to hunt them down, would I?
"Ant ~ ♪"
He took out something from the bulging part of the ants and offered it to me.
It was a golden ball. It looks like he's wrapped it in membrane, but there's a sweet smell coming off it.
This smell—
„Are you saying, that you are giving it to me?
"" "" "Ant-Ali- ♪" ""
Hooray! I'm a person who is in trouble, and I guess, even ants can help if you are in trouble.
„Thank you ants!"
„„Ant""
I received the ball, thanked them and went home.
And when I returned to the castle, camel appeared in front of me looking satisfied. When he found me, he rushed to me. A camel has his front and hind legs on one side at the same time.
„Ngoo?"
„Yeah. I've found a good thing. I think she can recover her strength with this."
"Ngo! Ngoo ♪"
A camel rubbed his head on me. He looks happy. And I guess he was really worried.
Well then, let's have her eat it right away.
