Chapter 86: Awakening...
“U...h. Uuu!” Tsuchio
When I woke up, the first I felt was stomach pain...was it because I was beaten by that golem? It hurts, but are my bones and internal organs safe?
When I got up, a blanket falls from my body. There is a cloth on the ground, did Shadow-san do it?...Why, why am I naked?
“Uuuhh..." Tsuchio
In the blanket, something wriggles over there. What is it Ruu or Lime already? At the ruins, it was Lime and it was Ruu this time. I must get up and get back to the top.
“Hey Ruu, what are you doing trying to take off my clothes..." Tsuchio
“Neee?" ???
When I snatched the bag and the blanket, there was a strange woman sleeping. Her brown hair was divided into two tails and a sharp blue horn was growing above her forehead. Both arms possessed a blue tattoo. The sleeves of her shirt-like dress are tied to the stomach and it looks like it\'s connected to her arm. She wears hot pants with her thighs being bare and her legs are clearly horse legs. Is this girl......Rin? What happened while I was unconscious....
“Hey, Rin? Wake up, we can\'t return if you don\'t wake up.” Tsuchio
“Hmm...kyaaaaaaa!!!” Rin
“Ababababa!!!???” Tsuchio
A thunderbolt materializes from that woman\'s horn and hits me, while severe pain runs through my whole body. Why do I have to be ripped off suddenly! Where\'s Level five! Where\'s the electric mouse!
“Wh, Wh, Wh, What are you doing, you pervert! Lecher! Rapist! It\'s the worst to attack a sleeping person! I misjudged you!" Rin
“Oh, relax Rin...you are wearing clothes, aren’t you?" Tsuchio
“Eh?...kyaaaaaa!!!” Rin
“Ababababa!!!???” Tsuchio
Rin shot a thunder again at me, what is it now!?
“Pl, Please put on your clothes! What kind of hobby is it to show off!” Rin
“Then say it with your mouth..." Tsuchio
Recently, a violent heroine isn’t really unpopular...well, if Rin is serious, I would be killed instantly. However, when she is doing it properly...I cant endure it, so I hope she won\'t do it.
I receive my clothes from Shadow-san. I seem to have fallen in the river, that\'s why they took off my wet clothes. And Shadow-san responded with first aid so that I recovered enough to move. I was cured with only first aid so I thought I was pretty badly injured. It hurts, but there is no problem moving around. Rin has humanized because she knocked down the mud golem that attacked us until a while ago. She said that she blew off its nucleus with a dash.
“That\'s what happened while I fainted...thanks a lot, Shadow-san. It was hard for Rin to fight that Golem alone, while you took care of me." Tsuchio
“Th, there\'s no such thing as an enemy! And I was not the only one that defeated it alone" Rin
“What do you mean? Did you fight with Ruu and the others?" Tsuchio
“No, that\'s not it....It was just a while ago that Tsuchio woke up, right? Didn\'t you have a strange dream while you were asleep?" Rin
Weird dream?...Well, I haven\'t dreamt something strange. But why would she ask such a thing suddenly?
“No, I haven\'t had a dream and I do not even remember it. Besides, I think I would remember if I had a strange dream. But why?" Tsuchio
“When I was fighting the mud golem, I made a mistake and was about to die. At that time, you helped me! I think so...because a woman who looked exactly like Tsuchio helped me." Rin
“A woman who looks just like me? I\'m a man. A woman or a man helped you?” Tsuchio
“Ah, it\'s not like that...what should I say? Face, atmosphere and magical power was similar. Nonidentical twins are the perfect expression." Tsuchio
Nonidentical twins...uh, lucky. I\'m a man now.
“What are you checking.... Well, I was with you when I saw you before." Rin
“What if it’s supposed to be a mistake?" Tsuchio
“...I fainted because I was out of magic and maybe I mistook Tsuchio. I may have seen a hallucination. But then, who blew the golem\'s body? It was a pretty big magic..." Rin
“How much?" Tsuchio
“Yeah... a little bit less than Lime." Rin
Hmm, that\'s true. If you do something wrong, a woman that is similar to me is a devil. Well, lets keep it in mind....
“Only your horn and legs are still unicorn-like. Compared to the others, your are more human" Tsuchio
Rin′s upper body is almost human, but, she won\'t be able to rush. She cannot do her strongest attack anymore.
“Did you completely become a magician type?" Tsuchio
“That\'s not it. This state is analogous to Nichrome as if in the state of non-combat. Well, I can use magic though.” Rin
“Hee, then how about showing me your battle status?" Tsuchio
“Well, wait a moment. Lets return to the top. Do you think it\'s okay to go back?" Rin
“I see, is that huge golem still there? I think that the others will surely beat it as they opposed it." Tsuchio
“I don\'t know… Ruu and Lime are going to come to help and are ignoring the golem, while Nichrome is suppressing it. If we don\'t do it quickly, I think those students will be in danger.” Rin
...Yes, indirectly, that\'s the cause of those students. Yes, the more I think about it, the more I\'m worried. If we don\'t return quickly, it will be dangerous.
“If that is the case, let\'s return. Oh, it hurts..." Tsuchio
“Are you okay? Shadow-san has only given first aid." Rin
“Yes, I′m okay. It hurts, but it is enough to move. Shadow-san\'s healing magic is amazing as it could be cured just by first aid measures." Tsuchio
She can use healing magic, though she is a ghost-type devil beast. I wonder how she learned it, though she didn’t have to use it. Well, I think it\'s better to have a proper person look at it later.
“Alright, I also returned the blanket, shall we go back up quickly? Rin, how do you carry me with that figure? Do you embrace me?" Tsuchio
“I won\'t embrace you! Just like before, ride on me!" Rin
Rin\'s body glows white and Rin′s figure didn’t change on the lower part and remained unicorn-like. With a unicorn head sticking on Rin′s upper body, it’s... like a Centaurus!
“Come on, you can go up at a stretch." Rin
“O, Ou....Where should I grab?" Tsuchio
“You\'re not going to touch my chest! Absolutely not!" Rin
Muu, if you are told that you shouldn\'t touch so much, you will misunderstand it!... Well, as long as it doesn’t seem to be forgiven, I won\'t touch. Shall I put my hands on her shoulders or turn my hands to her belly… or waist.
“Okay, let\'s go, Rin" Tsuchio
“You put your hands on my shoulders...well, I hope it would be my belly. Hold on tightly!" Rin
Stepping on the air, Rin runs through the sky. The feeling is not the same as before and the place to grip has changed. I know that Ruu and the others have defeated that Golem...but I\'m still worried. I hope they are unhurt.
＜Ruu′s POV＞
My dragon-like claws have considerable sharpness. Ordinary armor will cut like paper. As a result of further reinforcement, even the body of this hard golem can be burned. Lime seems to cut it with her dissolving solution.
Flames cover my long, thick, strong claws. If we don\'t destroy the nucleus quickly, we cannot help Tsuchio! Let\'s leave this place to Sasha-sensei as soon as she comes and go down the cliff.
“I think master will return safely if we defeat this golem." Nichrome
“I know. You still can\'t find the nucleus?" Ruu
The golem\'s body is quite damaged. Scars are covering most of the front side and a hole, especially deep, was centered on the chest.
“...It is possible to confirm a weak magic power which could potentially be the approximate position." Nichrome
“That\'s fine, it\'s better than attacking randomly." Ruu
“I understand. The estimated nucleus position is the left chest, where the human heart is." Nichrome
“Left chest...from the deep cut, it will be shifted a little." Lime
“It\'s better than nothing. Then, aim at the left chest for the meantime. Now that we know where to go, we\'ll destroy it quickly." Ruu
“All right, I will create a gap." Nichrome
From Nichrome′s lamia body, a large amount of barrel-shaped objects that would fit into a palm are launched. What is that...that\'s right, a missile. It\'s clogged with gunpowder and it launches and explodes in salvoes. Several missiles hit the chest of the golem and explode. It is burning without any scratches and is shaking from the impact. Nichrome′s missiles hit the golem\'s head. The impact is considerably seen on the shaking body. The golem collapsed and fell to the ground. Good, that\'s the end!
Lime makes a slide first of all. Sufficient amount of the dissolving solution drips down from the tip of her nail on to the whole nail. And in the right moment, she cut the golem’s chest with it. I can see a deeper nail mark than before and something that shines somewhat lighter inside. That is the nucleus, so when that breaks, it is over!
Aligning my fingers into a fist, I swing it down quickly. The golem also attempts to intercept my fist, but Lime and Nichrome’s sniping suppressed it. My arms were deeply stabbed into the golem\'s chest. A certain form of penetration is felt which seems to be different than when I hit the body. Light was lost from the nucleus and the golem crumbled to the ground. We killed it, then let\'s go to Tsuchio!
“Sister! Before that, shouldn\'t we change our arms?" Lime
“...I don\'t want to show it yet. It\'s not so hard to change it back." Ruu
“I agree. The revert operation is more easily, than the activation." Lime
“It can\'t be helped. Nichrome, you can go ahead." Ruu
“No, I can\'t fly, so I was going to wait here. You two, please go pick up master." Nichrome
“Okay, Nichrome, explain the situation to Sensei. Then, call someone who can use healing magic!” Ruu
“Understood.” Nichrome
Lime is also in the process of changing her arms. It is nice to beat a monster, but there is no point in spending too much time here. We desperately dispersed our magic, when an unexpected person spoke.
“What, Ruu, Lime, your arms, something\'s different. You could do such a thing too?" Tsuchio
“...Tsuchio?” Ruu
Tsuchio came up from the cliff, on a half-horse monster. That demon...did Rin evolve? Better than that, they don\'t seem to be injured at all.
“Oh, this? Shadow-san cured me with healing magic. I still have pain, but I recovered enough to move." Tsuchio
“I, I see...that\'s good to hear.” Ruu
“Yes, I\'m fine. Oh, this is Rin. I heard that we were attacked by a mud golem downstairs, but Rin defeated it and evolved afterwards." Tsuchio
“A golem was also there at the bottom!? Rin-chan, were you alright alone?" Ruu
“I remember that someone helped me...well, I\'ll tell you the story later. Right now, I am more concerned about Ruu′s skill." Rin
...Ah, Tsuchio returned and came flying over our heads. If he sees such a heinous and ugly arm, what will he think...I won\'t be able to use such an arm once again....
“It seems to be strong, that arm. Why didn\'t you use it before?” Tsuchio
“...Because, I don\'t want to show this to Tsuchio." Ruu
“Hey, hey, we are together since you were a monster. Now that you showed such a thing, I don\'t feel aversion. Besides, whatever shape it is, Ruu is Ruu. Don\'t worry." Tsuchio
“So?...Then it’s good. I was anxious for a long time that I would be disliked by Tsuchio." Ruu
“Of course, I believed that father would say so. Yes, because he is our father." Lime
“No, it\'s not...then everyone please rest because you\'re tired. I\'m going to get cured by a healer." Tsuchio
Tsuchio descended from Rin and headed to Sasha-sensei who came running here. Anyway, I\'m glad that Tsuchio is safe. My arm isn\'t bad. From now on, I have to use it properly and try to put it back right away.
----------------------
Rin
Age: unknown
Appearance: late teens
A female unicorn who finally became a human. She was tamed in a forest when Tsuchio was a first year student. Before, Rin only used thunder magic, she was good at close combat too and since Rin was assigned as the vanguard, she started using magic dash.
Although Rin also got dragon protection, she used only thunder magic, while she has a wide growth range. It doesn\'t work at all for opponents like mud golem, but… it\'s good for the right opponent.
A versatile type that can handle both bullet and magic. Therefore it is hard to stand out, but Tsuchio believes that Rin itself is fine. For the moment, only Tsuchio can ride her!
She is able to transform into a human with only horse legs which will be a Centaurus. And, because she isn\'t used to walking on two legs yet, she has the Centaurus mode for now. Will she become a human at night? No, it\'s hard to say.
Rin has a good relation with Ruu and Lime. Even among Tsuchio′s familiars, she looks like the oldest, but actually has a sister position. She also likes Tsuchio but is a classical tsundere that can\'t be straightforward. Tsuchio also bullies Rin, but because of her temperament, he usually doesn’t do it! Nonetheless, Rin isn\'t a violent heroine!
Rin is a blond blue-eyed female with twin tails(which is called country style). Remaining from the time as a unicorn are blue tattoos on her legs and arms. The clothes she is wearing now is a shirt that reveals her navel and hot pants. Among the familiars, she has the most exposure.
Skills and Magic
Lighting magic: With the dragon’s protection, only thunder magic could be used. The ability is improved in all aspects, such as output, range and consumption. The magic she used so far includes lightning arrows, thunderstorms, thunder balls, thunder spear, thunder strike, thunder armor and so on.
Flying ability: Her hooves are wrapped by wind so that she is able to run in the sky. Acquired by the influence of the dragon protection.
