Episode 17 – Glutton Caused by Gluttony
After I checked the state of the Kobolds, I started my action.
[Fate, do you have a plan?]
Greed seems to find it interesting. However, I think he understands what kind of strategy that I want to do.
The Crown Kobold doesn’t move from his spot, making two Assault Kobolds and ten Kobold Juniors go to the direction where I’m lurking.
I quietly withdraw straight to the depth of the forest. Now, they will trace my smell that remains here.
I hide in the shadow of a big rock that I found within reasonable distance. Although I’m in a hidden place, the smell of my trail still remains. The Kobolds will find me easily.
If I do not do that, I will be troubled even after I invited you all.
[They came, Fate]
I take a sneak peek out from the big stone, and I appraise one of the Assault Kobolds.
Still, if I can kill one of them first, the other one will be dead in no time.
However, it was too late to move. I easily slipped into its bosom, bisecting its belly like the big tree beside it.
While blood sprays out, the upper body of the Assault Kobold falls off.
I change the black sword grid to a black bow, and release magic arrows several times towards the Assault Kobold. All hit the back of its head, not even allowing any cries as it dies.
As a return gift, I’ll send you magic arrow. To gain more power, I pulled the bow and shot the arrow.
The magic arrow avoided the Kobold Juniors and moved in a complex trajectory before piercing the head of Assault Kobold.
I confirmed my status— the power that is overflowing within me without stopping.
While the Kobold Juniors ran around trying to escape, only the Crown Kobold was left, glaring at me hatefully.
Translator Note: Somehow I imagine this Crown Kobold like the one in SAO
