Chapter 27: Building a House
Entering the forest, did you feel something strange?
I wonder if Sue can sense anything.
"Sue, do you feel something strange about this forest, or is it just my imagination?"
"No, it's not your imagination. Franz-sama's intuition is correct. This isn't a forest!"
Huh, not a forest?
I have a bad feeling, but I don't understand the meaning.
It looks like a forest on the surface, so maybe it means not to be deceived by appearances.
"Sue, tell me. What's there?"
"There are monsters, Franz-sama. Look, they've come. It's the wooden monster, Trent!"
"Trent! The trees in the forest suddenly started moving!"
Trent, they said.
The trees weren't naturally grown trees; they moved like monsters waiting for us!
"Yes, that's Trent, the wooden monster. Leave it to me. You've always fought, Franz-sama, so this time, I'll fight. Please watch!"
"I'm counting on you."
Sue said she would fight and stepped forward in front of me.
There were multiple Trents, sliding smoothly across the ground as they approached.
Sue doesn't panic even when they come closer, but what worries me is that she has taken the form of a human.
Normally, if she were in her dragon form, this kind of monster would be a piece of cake.
However, her current form is that of a human, and she said her stats would decrease.
Moreover, there are quite a few of them.
The trees we thought were part of the forest were actually a horde of Trents.
I hope she'll be okay.
The Trents were the first to attack.
Zaaaaaaah!
Zaaaaaaah!
They swung their branches and attacked Sue!
Despite being a large monster, they are surprisingly fast!
And they keep coming one after another!
"So you thought you could defeat me by attacking a dragon? Take the Dragon's Fury, Trent! "
Sue counters Trent's attack by conjuring a gust of wind.
That's the same attack she used against me in our battle, but I wonder if it will work!
Gogogogogokogogooooo!
She managed to deflect Trent's branch attacks with the power of the wind!
Amazing, she overwhelmingly pushed back Trent!
Trent was blown away like in a typhoon, its branches snapping, and it became tattered.
With just one strike, about half of Trent is now in a tattered state, already defeated.
The remaining Trents all approached at once to fight!
Zaaaaaaah!
Zaaaaaaah!
Zaaaaaaah!
"You still have the will to fight, huh? You underestimated the dragon, Dragon's Fury!"
Gogogogogogooooooaaahh!
