Chapter 14: The Thing that came out of the Seaweed

A week has passed since the time I issued a match with the seaweed. The seaweed guy gradually filled the distance between us. Shit, it’s getting really close. If that thing gets anywhere nearer, it would be close enough to touch me.

Wait, I also noticed something important.

I referred to it as seaweed but, I’m not even sure if this is the ocean. Because there were sea serpents, I unconsciously thought this is the sea. Probably because there would be no lake this big so I thought this is the ocean. Sadly, this information would not be enough.

I called that thing seaweed even though it is not confirmed to be a sea, it’s a bit embarrassing. No one’s here to hear it so it’s probably okay. It’s not confirmed to be a seaweed so let’s just call itweed.

While thinking about such things, I focused my gaze towards the weed in front of me. It is swimming in a number 8-like pattern. It’s not called floating anymore, this is technically swimming. It swam like a jellyfish in an aquarium I saw when I was human before.

But, this is a match between you and me. I will not trigger the event flags that you’ve set up.

Go my 【Persistent】 title!

I avoided the weed in front of me and walked again. The weed seems to have been shocked;its body shuddered and slowly descended to the ground.

3 days later.

Walk straight. The weed is swimming around me in a circle. To be honest, it’s annoying.

Oh, in front, a thorny black object as tall as me blocked the path. Isn’t this a sea urchin?

Although, I couldn’t eat it now but when I was a human, I loved gunkan-maki1 stuffed with sea urchin.  It’s kinda like fresh sea urchins are really delicious! People in Japan even travelled to Hokkaido just to eat it.

While walking and thinking about such things, the sea urchin suddenly fired a prickle.

Sheuk, sheuk, sheuk. Even though my metal body was hit by the thorns, there was no damage. A scratch was not even inflicted.

I thought I would become the urchin’s prey so I hurriedly took a fighting pose against the sea urchin.

Do want to fight me? Huh!? Rawr!!

[Log: Due to the effects of 【The Enlightened One】, excitement was forcibly extinguished.]

Hmm, it seems the sea urchin lost its interest in me. Then why did it shoot me with its prick?

I understood the reason a beat later. As soon as the hiding weed behind me revealed itself, the urchin immediately fired its prick. Fortunately, the weed dodged the prick at the last minute and swiftly huddled behind me.

By the way, sea urchin eats seaweeds. Carcasses of eaten seaweeds were everywhere.

I was hit by the prick that was aimed at the weed.Sheuk, sheuk. It hits like a bullet, it hits again and it repeats. Eh, what’s this? Harassment?

Oh well, it can’t be helped. There is no hostility but it fights me so there no other choice but to defeat it.

I inched closer to the urchin. Sheuk, sheuk, sheuk, sheuk, sheuk. Prickles were continuously launched one after the other. However, I did not receive even an ounce of damage. It really is a metal body. Eventually, I reached the sea urchin.

I stretched my fist towards the urchin. Bang! The thorns were crushed as my fist hits the body of the urchin.

[Log: Golem dealt 120 damage to Sea Urchin.]

[Log: Sea Urchin died.]

The urchin was killed needlessly. It is very sad to live. This is the accumulation of sorrow.

At the wallowing golem, the weed playfully swam in front of it. It trembled and wiggled a little as if deciding on something. It feels like it is repeatedly panting heavily.

Finally, it seems like this game against this weed will be settled.

After the last battle, the seaweeds dispersed and spread over the area. The weed wrapped around me until I could not see my surroundings.
