Chapter 56: The monster that lurks in the lake

Translated by SoundOfDestiny

Edited by Zil

It was half a day’s journey west from the royal capital of Zain.

There was a lake called Lake Arar in the northern forest.

The lake was regarded by the neighbouring villages as a valuable source of water, but about three months ago the water suddenly dried up.

The cause is unknown. It is not due to sunshine, as rainfall has been the same as in previous years.

Already crops were beginning to be affected.

Villages on the shore of the lake asked the Royal Guild to investigate the cause, but the poor villagers could not afford to pay enough, and the request was left unanswered by any adventurers.

The fields have fallen into ruin, the wells are dry, and many villages are dying.

“Imperial style holy sword technique [Raiden]!”

“Go-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-owww!”

The bottom of a dry lake. With a flash of lightning, Célia swung her holy sword down.

The monster nestled in the bottom of the lake let out a low scream that seemed to echo from the ground as it was hit by lightning and a slash at once.

“Rhubarb … Why are there such magical monsters that you rarely see in the Devil’s Forest?”

With a sigh of exasperation, Raidorl watched the battle between Célia and the plant monster from a short distance away.

Rhubarb Palma is the largest of all plant-based demons. Not only in size, but also in the scale of its damage.

It was a monster of catastrophic proportions, capable of sucking up every last drop of groundwater within a radius of several dozen kilometres.

Raidorl had defeated one about two years ago in a pioneer city, but it was a monster that should not be seen in this region where mana is scarce.

The Rhubarb Palma emerged from the ground, over 10 metres long and it was so huge Raidorl had look up to see it awaken.

“Yaaaahhhh!”

“Goaaaaaaaah!”

Every time Célia flipped her sword, lightning bolts scattered on the bottom of the lake.

Palma also resisted, waving his roots like a whip, but he could not catch the swiftly moving princess and it was cut into pieces.

“As expected, the holder of the holy sword of the empire. and the child of thunder. Isn’t this a disaster-class monster?”

“Onii-san, is that supposed to be sarcasm? You wanted to say, ‘But you lost to me,’ don’t you?”

“It’s honest praise. Don’t get me wrong”

Having defeated the monster almost single-handedly, Célia looks back at Raydor and puffs out her cheeks in frustration.

Raidorl shrugged his shoulders in return and looked up at the huge body of the monster lying on the ground.

“No, I’m really praising you, I think you’re great. I’ve fought this guy before, but I had a much harder time with him. The lightning holy sword,Claíomh Solas, is far more powerful and penetrating than Dáinsleif.”

Ignoring the protests of the holy sword at his hip, which vibrated slightly, Raidorl nodded sincerely.

“Well,……,maybe now you can beat me. Let’s have a re-match, shall we?”

“Sure, if you want to lose the blessing of the Holy Sword again.”

“Mmmu ……,meanie, it’s not fair at all.”

The seal on her is now temporarily broken, but if she were to point her sword at Raidorl again, her power would be sealed again.

Célia sheathes her sword with a click, her cheeks puffed out in frustration.

“Well …… that’s settled. The water in the lake will be back soon.”

“It’s not even the rainy season, how easy can it be to get the water back?　I’m sure the villages will still having trouble until then……”

“No, no problem. You see, this demon……”

Before Raidorl could finish, Rhubarb’s body was ripped open.

A flood of water poured out of the giant plant’s roots.

“Ehhh!? There’s water ……!?”

“There it is! We’ve gotta get out of here!”

“Eh? Whatttt? Onii-san?”

Ignoring Célia’s panicked shouts, Raidorl made his own escape from the bottom of the lake.

A huge column of water erupted from the body of Palma, it came slightly faster than Célia could follow Raidorl.

“That’s what happens when you kill them. Get the fuck out of the lake!”

“Wa-wait!!!!!! You should have told me earlierrrrrrrrr!!!”

Célia is almost swallowed up by the flood of water, but barely manages to crawl out of the lake.

Raidorl, who had escaped earlier, grabbed her arm and pulled her up with all his might.

“When you beat a Rhubarb Palma, it’ll spit out all the water he’s inhaled and stored in his body. I had to go through that once myself.”

“You!….., TELL ME that before I BEAT IT……, I hate you.”

She slumps to the ground, soaking wet, and looks up at Raidorl with hatred and annoyance.

The clothes worn by the pretty princess were soaking wet, highlighting the lines of her too-fine body.

“……You should eat a bit more meat. Also Cow’s or Goat’s milk.”

“……onii-san, what are you trying to say all of a sudden? I’ll kill you depending on your reply.”
