Monster Musume Harem wo Tsukurou!-Chapter 74: Core position

Which is the main body and where is the core? If I don't know it, then it is meaningless no matter how you attack it. It keeps reproducing until magic is consumed. Though there is also a strategy of aiming at it, but the amount of magic of the chimera is considerably large. Now that this is a desperate situation, a short-term decisive battle is ideal. Somehow it isn't possible to see through...when I touch it, I seem to know where the core is from the flow of magic, but it would be indeed too difficult. I don't have a hint, so I can do nothing but to apply it by intuition...no, there is a hint. That fellow, the chimera.

“Master, give me an order”

Nichrome waits for my order. Until it is known where the core is, shall we assist everyone? No, if we by any chance fall into incapacitation, it is checkmate. Unless the core is crushed with a swift attack!

Think.... It is said that the chimera is the child of Echidna and Typhon and is the brother of Cerberus and Hydra. It was the pet of King Karia until it ran away after raging in the court and afterwards lived around today′s turkey and killed every creature that came across it. The frightened people asked for its extermination and the king dispatched hero Bellerophon. The hero sat on Pegasus and pierced the mouth of the chimera with a spear. The lead of the tip melted with the flame breath, but the throat of the chimera closed and it died afterwards. When I think now, it occasionally behaved like a teenager. I might check the myth.

How to knock down the chimera in the myth was the method of piercing the mouth with a spear. The tip melted and made the chimera choke. When it's guessed from here, the lion that breathes flames has a high possibility that it's the main body. Should I knock down the lion? Other strong possibility...is there just one?

The name of this monster is chimera and from the beginning does this name mean “Goat”. Therefore, it has goat's body in the myth. Do you think from the meaning of its original name, you think it's the cause of death in the myth...this one as cause of death seems rather to have a high possibility, but the one as "goat" can't be ignored. The snake is excluded, so let's narrow it down to the lion and goat....Uh, 2 bodies should be able to go somehow. How to knock down one body is already understood. If it can't be knocked down excellently with that, then I should concentrate our attacks on the remaining body. In that case I'll try it right away. First, lets pierce the Lion's mouth with a spear! I have to prepare a spear...I′ll do it in one shot somehow.

"Nichrome, at what time does that lion vomit his breath?" Tsuchio

"When the combating enemy parts to some degree, I guess that it pursuits, after it blows it off, master” Nichrome

"Noted, you must alternatively attract the attack of the goat with Rin" Tsuchio

“Who is Rin?” Nichrome

“Ah, you don't know them yet.... The Dragon lady taking care of the lion is Ruu, the unicorn fighting the goat is Rin and the black shadow is Shadow-san. Because I haven't decided a name yet, Shadow-san is only a tentative name. And the slime taking care of the snake is Lime. Remember it, because all of them are my familiars” Tsuchio

“Understood, I will register their names. For the Shadow, I register it as Shadow-san (Temporary). Please tell me, when it is changed” Nichrome

Shadow-san (Temporary)...so that means, Shadow-san is my quasi girlfriend!?

"Please don't consider such a strange idea and prepare quickly! Because there is no (Temporary)! Because I already exceed the limit!" Ruu

“...!” Puru!

“Buruu!”

I have to prepare quickly, apart from the complaints of Ruu and the others. First of all, I will call Rin back here, though she is no pegasus but an unicorn, it's too dangerous to approach alone.

“Good, go Nichrome!” Tsuchio

“Understood, the combat with number 2107 begins” Nichrome

Nichrome approached the chimera with unexpectedly good speed and she was now under the snake body. There is only the snake and its quickness doesn't seem to be so high. And although she is made of metal which seemed heavy, this seems not to be a problem.

Nichrome which even approached the goat to some degree has begun to set up both arms and the gunfire began. The sound that splits a cloth is raised and bullets are shot by the machine guns on both arms. To shoot a rapid-fire which is extremely different from magic, let the goat ignore Rin and shot a light ball at Nichrome. Nichrome is keep shooting, while moving readily and avoiding the light balls. Isn't there a pursuit performance, because an explosive impact was caused on the floor.

That's the opportunity, Rin leaves the front towards my place. There are no conspicuous injuries, but it's visible that she is tired and only 30 percent of her magic power remained. If Shadow-san isn't here, then it would also be consumed already.

“It's bad when you are tired, but you worked together at the end” Tsuchio

“Buru!”

“Thank you, I will throw a talisman into the lion's mouth. So please go to a safe place at the time you're about to faint. I explain it when this ends” Tsuchio

“Bururu!?”

“Yes, its a faint. Having used your magic power a little too much...it's also quite hard now" Tsuchio

Indeed, it was hard to draw the pentagram star so suddenly. Moreover two layers, with that the burden is doubled. Once more will be the limit. I'll manage it somehow...well, I have no intention to faint until the chimera is knocked down. In the worst, I have recovery potions. Although it is untasty, I would recover slowly and wouldn't faint.

“Because it's such a reason, I'll do it quickly. Ruu! When I signal, please disappear on purpose according to the lion's attack! Make him vomit his breath!” Tsuchio

“When it vomits, what is done!?” Ruu

“A talisman art is thrown into its mouth! It will end if we can knock it down and if not then the goat is our target!” Tsuchio

“Understood, I will try!” Ruu

Before making it vomit its breath, I have to prepare the talisman first. Talismans are lined up roundly in the air and the intonation is begun.

“This time gold. Gold causes water, water causes wood, wood causes fire, fire causes earth and earth causes gold” Tsuchio

The talismans are connected by magic and the star pentagram completely shines in argent. The remaining magic is consumed slowly and I'm seized by fatigue as if I ran a long marathon. I'd like to sleep soon, but the figure of the chimera in front of me disturbs that. As long as this guy isn't defeated, I can't fall asleep!

“Now Ruu!” Tsuchio

At the same time as the chimera's use it′s skill, Ruu will fail to parry purposely and will be blown away. The chimera which judged that as an opportunity has begun to inhale its breath according to Nichrome′s guess. Okay, now!

Rin kicks the door and dashes out. The star pentagram which hasn't been thrown yet also flies over my head in the air. The move timing is important and the best is when the breath is vomited and the spear enters its mouth!

"Shoot, gold star!" Tsuchio

When Rin springs up in front of the lion, I move my talisman art. The talismans that formed that star pentagram gathered together and changed into a long spear. The tip pointed sharply and the handle are made of metal and it would be no problem to shoot it out. I infused my whole magic into the rotating star pentagram. The argent spear was shot while rotating rapidly. The lion's chest swells greatly and immediately before the flame is thrown out did the spear plunge into the lion's mouth.

“GAAAAAAA!!!!???” Chimera

The spear sticks deeply into the lion's throat, who screams while vomiting its flame. Rin retreated immediately, so she doesnt receive any damage. Even that lion's mouth seems to be soft. However, the favorite is next. Whether the throat can be closed.

And although the lion kept vomiting its flame, the flame became weaker and stopped soon. It still tries to vomit it, but nothing comes out. The complexion worsens gradually until the lion′s eyes turned white and it fall to the ground. Well, what happens? If the lion is the main body does it self-destruct and stop the reproduction...somehow a change surely occurs.

I see the fight between Lime and the snake now. The snake doesn't vomit it's poison fog any longer and both the fight and Lime calmed down. It’s also a situation by which the attacks sometimes carries off, but it's no exaggeration to say that Lime is taking the initiative of the fight. Pressing the snake to make it retreat, then follow up with a jump to the front of it and cut it. It bleed from its torn skin and smoke is emit, it seem it’s recovering. Reproduction means the lion isn't the main body. The goat is the main body!

"Lime you attack the snake, everyone else please attack the goat! The barrier will be broken quickly!" Tsuchio

Ruu, Shadow-san and Nichrome attack the goat at the same time. Because it will be hard for Rin to use magic, I had her stay by my site. My magic is also exhausted and I can't participate, even if it's just in front of me. It's to the extent that the battle is seen from here and I issue instructions.

Everyone is enclosing the goat while attacking, but the firm barrier doesnt rip so easily. To tear that barrier...do we need to throw out a strong attack and do we all attack together at the same time? I think that that barrier and the magic which can be used together are decided and if we attack more than one point at the same time, it would be difficult to correspond. With that, other places become negligent.

“Huu...good. Ruu, Shadow-san, Nichrome. You three attack together simultaneously and get the timing right. Please use the strongest attack you can use” Tsuchio

“Understood! My breath is shoot out!” Ruu

“The best attack at long distance...permission of whole arm release" Nichrome

“You don't need to wait for my judgement every time, act by your own judgement” Tsuchio

Even at times my judgement cant be received. If she cant fight at such a time, I dont know what she want to be.

“I have no accumulation of battle data yet. I think I can't take the best action by my judgement" Nichrome

“That's fine separately, because it's only a person that can act all alone. After fighting, you look at your fight again and you think where was it good or bad, you should consider such a thing and utilize it next time. Simply rather than taking data, it is better to experience it directly” Tsuchio

“...My weapons follow master′s order. In future battles I perform by my judgement and check the log after the battle. I'll find the place which should be improved and get the same behavior by the next battle" Nichrome

No, it's so.... Can you not stand on ceremony so much? Well, that should be told later. Now, let's quickly knock down the chimera.

“Everyone, be ready!” Tsuchio

Ruu knucks her arms while taking a fighting stance, Shadow-san makes plenty of black spheres in the air and Nichrome opens the side of the snake and prepares to launch a small missile. Is it a micro missile? A small cylindrical missile is spread closely in the snake.

“Shoot!” Tsuchio

With my signal, a heat ray is shot from Ruu′s hands, a thin and fat ray is given off from the black sphere and a large amount of missiles collides with the barrier. Three places are exposed to a strong attack at the same time and the barrier cracks from the place where Ruu′s heat ray hit. Another push!

"Cruise missile, launching preparation completed" Nichrome

Nichrome has finished shooting her missiles out of her snake part. The missile to which a feather stuck lengthily is thick so that its seen from there and can't be compared to the missiles from just now. Eh, what. Tomahawk? Patriot? f𝔯ℯe𝓌ℯ𝐛𝒏𝐨ѵel.c𝚘𝐦

"Launching" Nichrome

A missile launches from her snake's belly and hits the dead center of the barrier and cause a large explosion. The barrier is destroyed by the impact and the goat's head was finally revealed.

“Rin the last blow is given to you!” Tsuchio

“Bururuu!”

While Ruu can't move by reaction, I let Rin drop me off and rushing into the goat's head with an thunder aura quickly. The magic that the goat shoots is avoided and Rin′s horn is electrified and aimed to the goat, while dashing with high-speed through it as it is. Remaining is only a big hole in the goat's head and it forms the character U. 𝑓𝓇𝑒𝑒𝚠e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝑙.com

The goat′s body falls to the floor and the same happens to the snake. When it was seen, there was a body with rotten skin and meat lying. Was the goat the correct answer as main body...in case of the snake here, it was indeed helpless.

Only the bone, the carrion and the rotten stench are left of the chimera that had all its meat rotten....it doesnt reproduce anymore. Haa, we managed to knock it down without any injury....

Actually I felt that the combat ended and a string of tension is cut off, so that I collapse to the floor. Closing the entrance with a rock and producing rock snakes, heavy talismans and 3 star pentagrams...I reached my limit.

“Ni, Nichrome.... Is this room safe?” Tsuchio

“Yes. Because I was stored, this room isn't included in the search range of the mechanical insects. And because there are no other experiments left, I can assert it is safe” Nichrome

“I see...in that case I sleep a little” Tsuchio

I couldn't open my eyelids anymore. While my conscious sinks into the darkness, a snow-white and bright light was seen at the end.
