[———————]
Kirihara Takuto entered the building.
I had been keeping track of Kirihara Takuto’s movements through Erika’s familiars.
Her familiars had the appearance of animals you could find anywhere after all.
If it’s a magical war pigeon, he might feel something out-of-place and notice that he’s being observed.
However, the familiars don’t look strange even if they were around.
What was most especially useful———– were the bird-type familiars.
With them around the vicinity, I asked Erika to check the situation around Kirihara.
Vysis couldn’t be seen near the vicinity.
The monsters that are apparently subordinated to him are at a considerable distance from the area.
Nothing that looked like troops lying in ambush has been confirmed……
Moreover———— Most of them showed no signs of moving.
Moving according to the information I had received, I chose my response.
I had prepared several plans.
It was a little while ago that we decided on a plan to use this building.
I had also thought of several ways to lure him inside.
One way was to use Pigimaru’s offshoot but———
Kirihara came in on his own initiative.
Should I assume that he came in because he was concerned about the rain, which was getting stronger?
It doesn’t seem like he’s bringing out those golden dragons of his.
[………………..]
I am now stuck to the ceiling.
With Pigimaru’s new ability, that is.
Pigimaru’s final reinforcement may be simple, but it’s literally its simplicity that makes it a useful ability.
Simply put, Pigimaru bees handier.
First of all, his adhesivity was remarkably improved.
Depending on how it’s used, it can even allow me to climb vertical building walls.
Back when I had ambushed the Drunken Sword Party, it was possible for them to climb above their blindspot because there was a place for me to hold on to.
Now, however, this allows me to stick even to empty space.
This has increased the number of blind spot options I could hide in.
The other thing is the improvement in mass-related capabilities.
Pigimaru’s length and strength when in rope form have increased considerably.
Perhaps, as a byproduct of this, it’s now possible for Pigimaru to divide himself.
After splitting himself, Pigimaru can move it as if it’s a branch of its body.
Pigimaru’s offshoot can also transform into a weapon.
As for these offshoots and weapons they may turn into, even if they were destroyed, Pigimaru wouldn’t be hurt by it.
In other words……
“If the offshoot is destroyed, the main body wouldn’t receive damage.”
However, the offshoot doesn’t have the same adhesivity or gigantism ability unlike the main body.
On the other hand though, the hardness of the offshoot dramatically increased.
In other words, it’s now hard enough to be used as a weapon.
Even if I don’t have a weapon in hand, Pigimaru himself can be used as a weapon.
And now……
I am sticking to a blind spot in the room, hiding my breath……
Footsteps.
It’s getting closer and closer……
……Kirihara huh.
Since that time———- You could say this would be our first reunion.
He’s retaining his tranquility.
He isn’t shaken at all.
Walking into the depths of the darkness……
Kirihara entered the building.
[………………………..]
Here he es.
The position of the footsteps……
He’s here……
Kirihara is in the same room as I am……
It…… doesn’t seem like he realized I’m here.
Got him……
He’s now within range.
[Pii———-]
Pigimaru’s offshoot, set up in place beforehand, let out a cry.
The cry was ing from the opposite direction of my position.
Responding to that cry, Kirihara’s attention was directed in that direction————-
It’s time———–
[]
————Crickle, crackle————, ……Bakiiiiin!————
A small———- sound of a glass breaking.
Something from within me……
From the back of my brain……
Deep in my memories……
A sensation that felt like something was being pulled out————
