Arifureta After IIThe Reunion of Monster Friends

AN: Short story This isn't an introduction for a long arc

As expected, it's iuys w

zudon, an impact sound that resounded until the bottom of stomach shook the air

A thunderous sound and vibration that even felt as though a deing at just once, the sound and i in succession

At the sareat desert Guryuen, a large sand pillar rose up and the rolled up sand cloud obstructed the sunlight

Although, what obstructed the sunlight the most wasn't the sand cloud If there was a personhere, they would undoubtedly open their eyes wide and doubted their own sanity, or escaped froe characteristic of the desert

An object that could cause any person to be like that was dancing in the sky, higher than the sand cloud and locally obstructed the sunlight

Yes,

「「「GYUOOOOOOOOOO」」」

By the killers of the great desert that were screa launched up to the air――the sandworround and detected their prey through sound and vibration, then suddenly leaped out froround and sed their prey into their mouth that was like an excavator That was sandworm's trait Their difficulty to be detected and their surprise attack were the greatest target of precaution for people ere going through desert, they were a syure above ground except when preying on the prey, ould they now dancing not just above ground but even in the sky

Of course this wasn't because they had evolved and learned the ability to fly in the sky

The cause of that was this

『GO DIEEEEEEEEEEE-』

Higher than the sandwor to the sky It spoke sharply like a yakuza while it descended with its rabbit earsfluttering

The rear legs that were abnormally developed accelerated each time they kicked on the air, finally it broke the wall of air and transforinated from the bottoravity's acceleration, Air Force, and Explosive Ground Shrinker was just like a meteor There was no way the launched up sandworm had any way to evade, it received Inaba's heel drop kick and the middle of its body burst

Faster than the rain of blood and flesh, Inaba kicked on the air and rapidly altered his path, without pause he performed forward somersault and pulverized the head of the sandworm that was further below

When he rushed passed the sandworm midair his body twisted and launchedof his rabbit ears due to the breeze of as beautiful But, the result that was brought about was the very definition of grueso the trajectory of the kick exter to fall

In addition, when Inaba swung his leg upside down in reverse as though he was break dancing, a slash that should be called as foot sword flew out fro apart the last sandworhtly flicked his rabbit ears fuasah with his front leg Right after that, flesh and blood and the corpses of sandwor with composure in the middle of the squall of flesh and blood

『Do you think I don't notice? Conity as the lord here』

By the hen Inaba-san talked normally, his talk would sound like 「Mokyu, mokyukyu? Ukyu Mokyu~~kyumokyu」 It was lovely He is a lovely bunny-chan who in the end of his evolution had his appearance turned into pure white with his round and cute criuage because of the function of one of the ear cuffs attached on his rabbit ear The ear cuff possessed the skill of "Language Co function his words could be conveyed to his surrounding as though he was talking norreat desert Guryuen returned a silence like cale appeared even after waiting

『……Well, it ain't ht the fight that was sold to onna tuck your tail and run away, then I won't follow See ya』(TN: Inaba's speech is using thick Kansai dialect)

Inaba quickly turned around and began walking toest

Right after that, the ground exploded

The opponent that Inaba called out It was a deser ic power It was a giant sandworree that the sandworround and assaulted Inaba froure wasn't there

There was only the giant body of the sandworm that pushed out until more than a hundred meter instantly, it looked like a tower that suddenly appeared right in the middle of desert

Was Inaba whose body as a monster was comparatively sht after it looked like that,

『Not just your movement, even your instinct is dull huh This is the end yeah! Lament your own stupidity――pass to the next life ya!』

A black spot was created inside the blazing sun The true identity of that was obviously, Inaba

The iant sandworm leaped out, Inaba kicked on its jaw at the sa that ung down along with a piercing yell cut across the pointed up jaw of the sandwor with an iround like breaking piled up roof tiles with a punch

The rabbit ears of Inaba who stepped on the ground went fuasah once iant sandas cleanly split into two and collapsed to left and right

『If you want to pick a fight with ainst therampant at the bottom of the abyss's bottoed with his rabbit ears and turned around, this ti Multi Ground Shrinker

『Even so, as I thought the ht yeah If it's like this, perhaps I should go to the palace even I gotta wait for a bit, so I can fight that cheeky rabbit or Ou-sa out her co explosively in a speed where even the surrounding desert looked blurry

Currently Inaba was separated from her employer and also friend Suzu

In the first place she becaer But his ouldn't come true in the present-day Japan Of course, if he actually accompanied Suzu to Japan, he would also be able to do ainst Shia or Hajime or others, but as expected there was no way he would be able to fight against them every day with how busy they were

And so, Inaba was traveling fro, like the deep part of the northern reat canyon Raisen, the lowest level of abyss, and so on But for the current Inaba, there was finally no , and then growing fro hishis own limit was exactly his life work

He wanted to proof that even a ht of martial art in the end of hard work, that his kick was able to reach the top of the world

For Inaba as such a martial artist, his current situation where he found no battle that could make his blood boiled and his flesh danced, where he had to cross through the verge of death, was honestly a really withering situation for hiree that his rabbit ears were conation are exactly the greatest ene for a bit, I'ate It also has been a long time since I onna split open his head』

After about a few hours of dry desert sound that fluttered his rabbit ears

Inaba who crossed the desert with astounding speed finally arrived at the western sea There was the 【Sea City Erisen】at the coast, but Inaba's destination wasn't there

Inaba ca to meet a friend that he suddenly re to feel boredom 'Co already', he thought

Inaba took a step forward from the coast Inaba didn't fall to the sea Dark red ripple was spreading under his feet,a firm foothold midair

Like that Inaba rapidly left toward offshore by walking above the sea

And then, when he reached a spot where soon it would be hard to even see the coast, Inaba took a really deep breath, and he called loudly at the one he came to meet

『BO~~~~~~~~SS, LE~~~~~~~~E!!』

The loud telepathic yell spread out like a ripple The call that was filled with nified by artifact would reach the radius of 100 kilometer if it was done seriously

Inaba focused his rabbit ears for a while to look for any reaction

And then……

『DON'T SCREAM, SO LOUDLYYY~~~~!! Which idiot is doing this huhhh!!?』

An angry yell of harsh voice came back The voice sounded pointlessly dandy, but it contained sullenness as though the voice's owner had just gotten woken up froaphone

『Oo, it reached out just with a yell My luck is really good yeah』

A few , plop what showed up its face out from the sea was a fish with a hued man――that person (?) Leeman (TN: The katakana of Leeman can also mean salary ht it was an idiot from somewhere』

『Really sorry, boss Lee I picked the fastest way to find you boss You were sleeping?』

The two congenially conversed
