Chapter 15, Cat Plays with People (Part 2)
"...Sister! Really! Why are you running so fast? Why don't you wait for me!"
With a slightly childish scolding, after the black cat with the power to slay dragons, another cute creature appeared in front of Enri.
It was a beautiful creature about the size of a palm, with translucent butterfly wings, and a beautiful figure like a fairy tale princess with blond hair, blue eyes, and snow-white skin. Unfortunately, it was only fifteen centimeters tall... It was exactly what it was in European myths and legends. , the little fairy flying among the flowers all day long!
In the real world, she is the twin sister of the cat knight player Rachel, and the elf player Flor.
Of course, the above are all game settings and online player names. Their identities in another world are still ordinary Chinese female college students.
I saw the little fairy Flor flapping her translucent wings around Enri. Emmett and her sister flew around and then spoke enthusiastically, "...Hey, little sister, you seem to be injured! Do you need me to help you treat it?"
"...Well, thank you benefactor!" Although it felt really awkward to be called little sister by a little goblin the size of a palm, Enri was not the kind of person who didn't know what was good and bad. As soon as she realized what was happening, she hurriedly spoke. thank.
"...Well, it seems like no bones were injured. Just using this should be enough...[Slight Injury Treatment]!"
The next moment, a green halo gradually lit up Enri's body, like a comfortable warmth flowing into her limbs, making her look surprised. But before the green light on Enri dissipated, another large group of cats rushed through the grass and shrubs and rushed in front of her.
The leader, the tabby cat Wang Qiu, saw the cat knight Rachel still holding the superhero POSS after knocking someone away with one punch. His face was full of pride. He immediately got angry and started to take pictures. He gave her a paw and said, "... ...Rachel! And Flor, why are you talking to yourself, meow? Don’t forget where your skills come from, meow! Rookie? ”
"...Oh! No! Don't!" Rachel and Flor were stunned. "...We know we are wrong, why not? Meow? Woohoo!"
Seeing that the little black cat and the little goblin who had just saved her were scolded by the tabby cat, Enri naturally felt a little sorry, so she went up to him and said, "...Ah, Mr. Cat over there, please don't be angry. , they also did it to save us..."
However, before Enri could finish her words, she was interrupted by a heartbreaking scream.
"...Ah, help! Come quickly! Monsters! There are many monsters!" - The other armored knight who was left just now, after seeing his companion being punched by the kitten and turned into a meteor in the sky, Immediately, he was stunned with fright and stood there stupidly like a wooden man. It wasn't until this moment that he finally realized what he was doing. He dropped the sword and turned around, howling like a ghost and running back... Unfortunately, he still couldn't escape.
"...It's so noisy! As a waste, you should wait for death. Are you so noisy in a hurry to get on the road? [Magic Arrow]!"
The cat mage Wang Qiu waved his paw impatiently, and ten colorful light balls appeared in the void, drawing colorful tracks and rushing towards the knight who abandoned his sword and ran away. The next first blow knocked the knight into the air from behind, and before he could fall down, he received the second and third blows... The poor knight who became a target... Hanging in mid-air like this, he was twitching violently like an electric shock. It was like being hit by a combo of Shoryuken in a fighting game. After flying up in the air, he could never come down again.
After ten rounds of [Magic Arrows] were fired, the knight who had been blown up to a height of three stories fell down heavily like a broken doll, splashing a blade of grass and dust. There was a deafening loud noise, and I could no longer move...
It was obvious that it was absolutely impossible for this guy who was already bleeding from all his orifices and whose whole body was as limp as mud to get up.
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
Seeing this scene, Lich King Ainz, who was following closely behind with his wand ready to kill monsters at any time, was instantly stunned.
——You knights who look quite mighty, why are you so unbeatable?
According to the settings of the game, the [Magic Arrow] Wang Qiu cast just now is only the first level, which is the lowest level of non-attribute attack magic. Although the number of light balls emitted at one time will increase as the player levels up, the power of each [Magic Arrow] does not change.
To be honest, according to his experience, the power of a [Magic Arrow] cannot even kill a monster around level 10!
Could it be that these seemingly powerful human armored knights are actually weaker than monsters like low-level goblins around level 10?
...Well...although it feels very empty and lost, it seems that’s all I can think of.
Lich King Ainz, who was originally on tenterhooks and faced a formidable enemy, suddenly lost all motivation:
Enemies that can be dispatched so easily are really too weak, and it’s really frustrating!
It’s a shame I made so many preparations before! Could it be that everything was in vain? !
Of course, Ainz immediately thought that maybe it was just the guy in front of him who was particularly useless. Just like in some legendary elite teams, there are often a lot of losers and weaklings mixed in who only rely on connections and paths to get the upper hand. But no matter what, the original tension can never be regained.
However, even so, although Ainz was no longer nervous, he did not let down his guard. After all, he knew nothing about the level of force of the indigenous humans in this world. Although the two knights here were vulnerable, maybe among the remaining people, there was a strong one who could hit him instantly?
Even in the real history of ancient Japan, there was a huge difference in the combat effectiveness of those miscellaneous soldiers and swordsmen!
Just because you casually killed an Ashigaru peasant soldier, you can't think that you can fight against the sword master Miyamoto Musashi!
After all, we are still on the battlefield. If we are still careless at this time, we are simply idiots.
Well, once you feel an irresistible danger, you should immediately activate the teleportation magic and make a strategic transfer!
Lich King Ainz made a decision in his mind. At the same time, he checked the mask on his face and the gloves used to cover his bone hands for the last time. He tightened his clothes and made sure that no bones were exposed. Now he took a group of followers and continued to walk over.
However, before he, the Lich King, who was dressed as a wandering magician, showed up slowly, the girl Enri could not help but beg for help from a group of cats - although it seemed very awkward, but the matter was over, she How can you take care of so much?
"...T-that-- Mr. Cat, or Ms. Cat, thank you for saving us! And, although I feel a bit shameless, no, the only people we can rely on are you. Please, Please! Please save our parents! They may still be alive!"
Seeing Enri's incoherent expression, the tabby cat King Qiu looked back at the many cats around him who were eager to try, as well as Ainz who was following through the grass, then stood up and asked, "...Mr. Ainz, What do you think of this little girl’s plea for help?”
"...Ah, I get it. Just go and give it a try! If their parents are still alive, it's best to save them as much as possible!"
Lich King Ainz was stunned for a moment and then replied.
——Although these cats easily knocked down two knights just now, the sample was too small to prove that the local knights were all weaklings. Therefore, we should continue to launch tentative attacks on the remaining knights in the village. Not only can we establish a good image as a savior, but we can also use this to judge the strength of human armed forces in this world. It is also an opportunity to confirm the level of our own strength.
But despite this, if Ainz were to enter by himself, he would still feel a little hesitant, because he was not sure whether there was a strong person on the opposite side that he could not match, especially at this moment when he lacked the basic common sense of the other world and rushed in rashly. The battlefield is really too dangerous. Rather than taking risks in person, it is better to let these cat people players from the 21st century Earth explore the way. Anyway, for them who are far away in another world, even if they are accidentally killed in this world, they can open a new account and resurrect at any time... They are definitely not intentionally trying to harm their teammates!
"... Got it, meow! Let's all go, meow!" After seeing Lich King Ainz casually agree, the tabby cat King Qiu turned around, raised his cat paw, and headed straight for the village with a group of cats. And the little fairy Flor also disappeared with a "whoosh", and she didn't know where she went.
The two sisters, who were hugging each other, opened their eyes wide when they saw this, showing expressions of surprise in disbelief. After a while, they came back to their senses, turned around and bowed their heads to the strangely dressed Ainz and thanked them: "... That...kind-hearted Mr. Magician, thank you! Thank you, thank you very much! Also, please..."
"...Ah...do you want to ask me my name? My name is Ainz. Ur. Gong!" The Lich King answered with a proud look on his face.
However, Enri's expression seemed to be dumbfounded, and after a moment she continued hesitantly:
"...Well...Mr. Ainz, that's not what I want to ask...Ah, of course I don't mean to look down on you. It is also necessary to ask for your surname! However, what I want to ask is, Are those cats you raised just now? ”
"...Ah, I guess so..." Ainz couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, but he still subconsciously answered.
"...Wow! Ainz-sama is so powerful! The cats he raises can even knock down knights! There is probably no one in the world who is better at raising cats than you, right? By the way, are all the cats raised by magicians? Can they talk like the ones just now? Can they stand up and walk? ..."
Listening to the little girl's admiring words and curious questions, Lich King Ainz felt a little subtly tangled in his heart for some reason.
Did you agree in advance to let me show off in public? How come things have turned into a righteous superhero show for you cats? !
——It was discovered that the opponent who was supposed to cope with it with all his strength and seemed to be facing a formidable enemy was actually a weakling. Then, the pretentious scene that could have been a hero saving the beauty, punishing the evil and promoting the good was overshadowed by a group of cats. Please ask the Lich King Ainz’s psychological shadow area at this time?
However, no matter how large the psychological shadow of the Lich King Ainz was, at least he was in a much better mood than the knights in Karn Village. In fact, these armored knights who were showing off their power just a moment ago were almost to the point of mental collapse due to being played by the cats.
