Weiss and Leopin 19

Translated by NotBlueYet

Mysterious voices came from the surrounding forest.

The thieves raised the lanterns in their hands and looked around, “Who is it?“

The only one who knew the identity of the voice was Weiss, who was crouching .... alone.

He was the only one who knew who the voice belonged to, and he was the only one who could hear it. ..

Sighing, he blamed the owner of that voice.

The next moment, something hit the thief with a wind noise that split the darkness.

....Bechotto!

It hit the tip of his nose and exploded, splashing green liquid all over his face.

“What’s this?　What is this?　Something hit my face!”

“It looks like a nut!　Are you all right!”

“Yeah, it was soft, so I’m fine.　It stinks a little, though!”

“Who the hell is that?　It’s too dark, I can’t see a thing!”

....

“Oh, no!　Again?”

“Goblins throwing berries at us?”

“Damn it, it’s licking me!”

“....Guch!”

“I’ve been hit too!　I got hit too!”

“But I know where it’s coming from!　That way!”

“Find them and kill them! Split into two groups and take turns preparing for battle!”

The leader was furious and sent out instructions.

Once the men return to the barn, they arm themselves with leather helmets and armor, swords and axes hanging on the walls.

The group that is ready charges in the direction of the flying nuts, holding lanterns over their heads.

The leader stomped on Weiss’s head like kicking an empty can.

“I know it’s goblins who do this, but we have to be careful,”

“They could pull me away from you and save you while they’re at it, but we won’t let them. ....”

The leader is hit in the face with a nut in the middle of his words.

He was hit in the face by a nut. ....

“Fuck! Damn it! They flew in from the other direction! Hey, you guys! Look over there!”

The thieves then ran right and left through the forest.

Under the direction of their leader, they ran from place to place.

“Now that way! The enemy throws nuts, so they can’t attack from that far away! Search nearby!”

The voice of his men came back from the nearby bushes.

“There’s no one here .... either!　What?　We’re hit!　This time it’s coming from over there!”

“Is there more than one enemy?　If so, it should be possible to find at least one of them. ....!　Then climb up on that rock and look for them from high up!”

The leader’s instructions were precise.

If it were an ordinary enemy, he would have been supplemented by now,.....

The enemy’s attacks were one-sided, and yet their figure alone could not be found no matter how hard they looked for it.

In the meantime, his men were being hit by the projectiles, and their entire bodies were covered in green liquid.

Exhausted from running around, they became greatly irritated and a little anxious about their invisible enemy.

“Ha, ha, ha.. ....!　No matter how hard I look for it, I can’t find it anywhere. ....!”

“I’m sure they’re there, but ....!　Why, why, why, why, ....!”

“Ya....Ya....!　Oh, man, ....!　It’s like we’re dealing with a monster!”

“Oh ....!　I can’t see you at all, I can only think of you as an ogre....!”

“And he only throws soft nuts that don’t even hurt when they hit you. ....”

“Are you playing with us, ....?　Do they think they can kill us anytime they want ....?”

As if they were dealing with a predator from another planet, the minions are terrified of their unknown enemy.

Among them, only the leader remained calm.

He said, “....It’s strange, they should be attacking us from close by, but it’s impossible that we can’t see them. ....Are they invisible or something?”

After he said this to himself, he suddenly realized.

“Hey! Bastards, come back! Here’s a hint to find an enemy!”

His men, who had been scattered in all directions, gathered once again.

The thieves look like they have been doused in slime.

The boss-slime-like leader crouched down and grabbed Weiss by the hair again.

“Hey, Weiss ....!　When we beat up that little boy in the barn, you were gone before we knew it, weren’t you?”

The minions around him remember, “Ah!”.

“That’s right!　Weiss was gone like he disappeared!”

“Oh!　He was tied up and rolled in the middle of the barn, and before we knew it, he was in the back of the barn!”

“That means ....!”

The leader of the group trails off, “That’s right.

The guy who is sneaking into the woods right now must be using the same method. Now, Weiss, tell us what kind of seeds you’ve got.”

“I don’t know .... ....!”

Weiss is slapped on the cheek with a bang.

“Don’t lie to me!”

But Weiss’ statement was true.

The wicked wrecking ball Weiss used to disappear is now in his pocket.

Besides, it is now just a piece of cloth, having used up its two use limit.

Weiss really did not know how the mysterious enemy was disappearing.

But the thieves would not believe him.

The leader pondered for a moment, then said, “Get up!” and grabbed Weiss by the neck and dragged him up.

He placed the blade against Weiss’s neck again and shouted so that the surrounding forest could hear.

“Hey!　Hero!　You’re here for Weiss, aren’t you!　Let’s make a deal!　If you show up in front of us and tell us the truth, we’ll give you back Weiss!”

Weiss shouted as he twisted his body.

“U.... lie!　Don’t come out!　If you come out, you’ll be killed and .... guh!”

“Come on!　What are you going to do, hero?　It’s time to end this hide-and-seek!　Come out before I count to ten!　If you don’t, I don’t care what happens to him!”

The leader began the countdown in an intimidating tone.

“.... one!　.... two!　.... one!　.... Shii!　....Gooo!　What’s up hero!　Are you lost!　Or are you shy!　Or are you ....!”

The leader presses his blade extra hard against Weiss’s neck.

“You want to see the blood spurting out of his neck like champagne?　If that’s the case, say so quickly!　If that’s the case, we’re on the same page, aren’t we!　Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!”

A loud laugh like a howl echoed through the night forest.

“Then, I’ll go all in at once!　....Roku!　Na na na!　Hachi!　Kyuuu!　Ju....!”

“Shubhak....!”

Suddenly, something flies in from ahead.

Unlike the nuts up to now, it was large enough to be seen, and in the darkness of the night, it looked like a rock.

It was not just one, but they flew in one after another.

Shubhak ....!　Shubha....!　Shubha....!

If they were rocks, they could have been a threat, but the thieves did not try to escape.

Because it was obvious that the gentle parabola that they were drawing was going to stall in the middle of the road, and they were all flying in the direction of the day after tomorrow.

The bombs landed far away from the group, and the impact of landing caused them to crack open one after another.

They finally understood the invitation when they saw one of them fly out from the inside.

What the hell is that? There’s a lot of stuff coming out!

“Are those bees?”

So that’s a beehive lying around.

“Yeah, I see it. You were going to hit us with the hive so the bees would attack us.

But you’re so bad at this. You’re way off.

I’m not afraid of a beehive that far away.”

The next moment, however, he noticed something unusual.

The bees were like a swarm of locusts, and they were coming right at them. ....!

“What the .... ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!?”
