Chapter 221: Just One Arm
Bursting through Meenas back were spider-like appendages. And from the white threads covering her left hand, Leon surmised that the girl before him was a spider-type monster.
[God damn it, why does it have to be a SPIDER!?]
Leon the Golden Wolfman, for all his hereditary physical prowesses and his unique skill, the , had his share of deaths in Gods Dungeon the first of which was to the Swamp layers boss monster, the Queen Spider.
Leons agility was already exceptional even back then, but in the vicinity of the Queen Spiders nest, his speed was nullified. Once ensnared in spider silk, he was helpless, eventually succumbing to the monsters venomous bite.
Raaah!
Recalling those days, Leons face turned pale, but his action was swift. As his left arm was ensnared in the white threads, he grabbed his sword with his free right hand and chopped it right off. Meena, now holding just the severed left arm, stumbled backward.
HUH!?
Meena, surprised by Leons decisive severing of his own arm, slid across the ground. As Leon distanced himself to safety, he glanced at the spot where his left arm had been, his face contorted in pain and tears welling up.
Shit, that HURT!
Having battled on the frontlines of Gods Dungeon where death only meant resurrection, Leon had experienced situations where body parts were lost. While the loss of his left arm affected his balance, he managed to straighten his spine and proceeded to extend his right hand towards Meena.
So, little miss mind giving me back my left arm?
Why?
Meena, puzzled by Leons seemingly demanding demeanor despite losing his left arm, shook her head. Then, she pierced the ground with the appendages protruding from her back, levitating herself to chase after Leon.
Capturing someone as agile as Leon was nearly impossible, however. Even Meenas attempts to ensnare Leon with solidified spider silk at close range were all deftly avoided.
Why are you running? Cmon, come with me! Itll be fun!
If youre asking me out on a date, maybe try again when the state of emergency is over! Besides, what ARE you? Youre actually pretty cute for a monster.
Didnt you say that youll do whatever a woman asks of you? I heard you say that on a Pedestal! What a liar.
Youre misquoting me! I said my WIVES, not just any woman!
As they bantered, Leon swiftly circled behind Meena and attempted to sever the appendages protruding from her back. However, they turned out to be as tough as steel. Meena, letting out unnerving grunts, swung them around wildly, prompting Leon to quickly retreat out of their range.
Man, theyre tough. I dont think I can cut them
Yeah, you cant. A liar cant hurt me.
Cool, cool. Im not about to hurt a girl anyway.
!? Ow!
And thats what happened.
Huh. That definitely was something.
In the treatment room where White Mages had gathered, Tsutomu nodded as he listened to Leon recounting the events. Although Leons left arm was still missing, it seemed the medical staff could grow him a new one in about two days.
Im sorry I couldnt help, the knight lady who had conversed with Leon outside of the quarantine said, seemingly feeling responsible for his lost arm.
Nah, its all good. No point in blaming yourself its just what it is.
The knight remained by Leons side, and Tsutomu, somewhat skeptically, observed Leon under her watchful eye.
Well, you need as much rest as you can get, so Ill leave you to it, Tsutomu said. Ill be back to see the doctors in action.
Cool. Thanks, man.
Tsutomu, having an interest in the White Mages who could regrow lost limbs from scratch, had decided to observe Leons treatment process over these two days. In fact, he had contemplated staying here the whole time, but upon sensing a silent pressure from the knight, he ultimately decided to only get the crucial information from Leon before leaving the room.
According to Christia, the girl who had attempted to abduct Leon who had introduced herself as Meena was associated with a religious group called the Orbis Church, which had been gaining some prominence in the Dungeon City as of late. Tsutomu remembered the girl as one of the few survivors among the civilian spectators during the Devourer Dragons attack, begging for her mothers revival with her severed head in hand.
[The Orbis Church Considering what this religion or cult is trying to do, they cant be people from another world Wait, actually, that still doesnt rule out the possibility, does it?]
Tsutomu thought that if the conductor of this Stampede were human, they might be people in a similar position to himself meaning, there could be a possibility of them being from another world. However, seeing that this religious groups aim was to seal the Dungeon away, Tsutomu could not help but feel perplexed.
Another point of concern was the Magic Stones extracted from the insect-like monsters that had emerged outside Sentrea. According to the head of House Babenberg, the crucial aspect of the Magic Stones which would be the magical power sealed within them had been completely missing, rendering those stones absolutely useless. Fortunately, there was a substantial stockpile of Magic Stones in the Royal Capital, so this would not be a problem in the short term. However, the situation regarding the siege of Sentrea had made the future even more uncertain than before.
Magic Stones were not only used to fuel House Babenbergs Shields, but also for magical tools necessary for daily life, leading to heavy consumption. Therefore, if Magic Stones could not be obtained from monsters, the supply would be restricted.
For now, there were enough Magic Stones brought into Sentrea, so there was no immediate concern. However, since they had gathered a certain amount of information about the Stampede, perhaps now was a good time to retreat to the Royal Capital.
The next day, representatives stationed in Sentrea were gathered to discuss the previous days events as well as the Orbis Church, after which Christia began to discuss their future actions.
The one manipulating this Stampede is likely associated with the Orbis Church. Judging from their movements, there is a high possibility they have already infiltrated the Royal Capital. Therefore, well send Leon to the royal capital for reconnaissance and confirm the situation. At least until then, we will remain in Sentrea.
This is just a guess, but refugees may still come from the south. How do we deal with them?
We wont accept any more refugees. However, if possible, we want to secure cities other than Sentrea and relocate them there. The refugees weve taken in this time will also be moved there.
Christia pointed to three cities near Sentrea, indicating plans to secure at least one of them. Members of House Babenberg and the knights expressed their agreement, and Tsutomu nodded solemnly.
But remember, if the Royal Capital suffers a blow, we lose our supply line. The situation is precarious, especially considering we cant expect new Magic Stones from monsters to be usable. Depending on the information we receive from Leon, we may have to prioritize ensuring the safety of the Royal Capital. Securing a city for refugees is secondary do it only if we have resources to spare.
If the Magic Stones obtained from the monsters in this Stampede could not be used, it would lead to a supply shortage. Without Magic Stones, the nobilitys magic would not function, and the peoples lives would be affected. Therefore, securing the Royal Capital, which stored a great supply of Magic Stones, was imperative.
After confirming there were no objections to this course of action, Christia quickly dismissed everyone and sent them back to their duties.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
