A VR Travel Story That Makes You Want to Be Humiliated

Chapter 151: Hero Party and Underground Cave (2)

"... "It's strange."

"That's strange."

"It's strange."

For several days, I went down underground and explored through the stairs hidden in the cave.

The deeper they went, the more strange the hero party felt.

The only enemies are imps.

No, if that's all you need, you can somehow understand.

Just as there are orc caves and goblin caves, there could also be imp caves. Even though it appears only through demon summoning, it does not mean that weak demons, such as imps, leak out from abandoned summoning circles.

The strange thing is that there are various types of imps.

Imps are also a species with many subspecies. Has horns, has two tails, or has blue skin.

However, the subspecies that emerged from this cave was completely different from those subspecies.

A subspecies that extends its long tail to snatch people and drag them away, a subspecies whose body is swollen several times its size and self-destructs when approached, a subspecies that pounces from the air with tremendous leaping power, and even a subspecies that lies as if dead and then gets up and charges at the moment of stimulation.

That's right, Impra, if you don't let your guard down and get nervous, you won't get into trouble.

Still, the hero party felt exhausted as these subspecies were mixed in at a time when regular imps were rushing in.

Imps just live in a specific location and don't patrol, so I guess it's a good thing that I've never been attacked while resting.

Thanks to this, even if it took a little time, I was able to get enough rest and move forward in perfect condition.

The reason why the search continued for several days was because of the repeated rest and advance.

"..."

Lev, who was ahead, raised his fist above his shoulder. It was a signal to stop.

Is it an imp again? The party members tensed and adjusted their weapons, but this time, no voice was heard indicating the enemy's location.

"Rev. What's going on?"

Gaidon looked puzzled and asked Lev, who stopped the party and didn't say anything.

Gaidon was also the party's tank, and was in the front line similar to the scout Lev, but there was nothing visible to him.

Lev paused a little longer and spoke.

"... There is a village."

"A village?"

"Okay. I can see several two-story buildings with low stone walls. ... That can't be possible."

This place is deeper underground than a cave, and even though it is weak, it is teeming with demonic imps.

It would be strange even if there were survivors in a place like this, but is there a village there? It was nothing short of an award.

And as it was suspicious, there was a high probability that there would be a clue to this place.

"Hero. What should I do?"

"I have to go. "Because there are no other clues."

There was no one who refuted the hero's words. The hero party and the saintess advanced nervously.

As I walked a little further along the same path, I was able to see the village through other people's eyes.

The size of the village was small, with less than 10 households. But it was clearly a village, and at the same time there was no smell of people living at all.

The smoke produced by people as they live, the smoke used to heat or cook rice... Couldn't find anything.

I didn't know why there was a village in a place like this or who lived there, but at least it was clear that there was no one alive in this village right now.

A living 'person'.

– Jump!

As the hero party got closer to the village, the village's main gate opened and imps poured out.

Even if there was no need to say how many Lev there were, everyone could tell that there were a lot of them.

"Ready for battle!!"

As soon as the hero shouted, the positions of Lev and Gaidon were reversed.

Gaidon, wearing heavy armor and carrying a huge shield, is in the front, and Lev, who has relatively light equipment, is behind him.

The imps are currently coming out through the village gate, so they are concentrated in one place, but if that many of them spread out, and we are surrounded from all sides, it will be a very difficult fight.

Gaidon lunged forward to stop it, raking the side of his shield with his weapon.

– Kkkk!!!

Gaidon's shield and weapons, which have been specially treated, make a terrible sound that humans cannot hear when they rub against each other.

Silphiere, an elf with better hearing than humans, described it as creepy even though she could only vaguely hear it. How would a monster react when it hears those sounds?

As soon as the imps heard the sound Gaidon made, they trembled and rushed at him as if they had discovered their parents' enemies.

After sufficiently narrowing the distance, Silpierre's supporting fire was fired on both sides of Gaidon, who lowered his stance and prepared for the attack.

The arrows fired continuously, as if to show why the elves' archery was the best, showed a 140% accuracy rate despite the high rate of fire.

This means that it often pierces the imp that it hits and also hits the imp behind it.

In that brief moment when the imps rushed in, all the buffs used by the saint along with Berti, the priest of the hero party, fell.

And the battle began with Gaidon's heavy shield bash being inflicted just before the imp who rushed in first slashed his sharp claws at Gaidon, right before the most defenseless attack.

-Cow!

Gaidon pushed back with his shield whenever he got the chance. When an imp, which is smaller than a human, is hit by a shield, it flies away helplessly, entangling nearby imps.

A quick Lev jumps into the space created, cuts down several staggering imps, and escapes again before the imps come to their senses.

It was an infuriating act for the Imp, but with his limited intelligence, he couldn't come up with a suitable solution. It just got angrier and clung to Gaidon's shield, clawing at him with its claws.

There was also an imp who bypassed Gaidon and went to attack the back line, but he was quickly skewered by Silpierre's arrows, which were the first to target such a guy. Even if he uses his companion as a shield to block the arrow, he is instantly cut in half by the sword of the warrior standing in the middle row.

Just when I thought I could safely deal with the imp even though it would take some time like this, boom. Thud. The cave floor rang.

"Silpierre!"

"Whew! It's him again!!"

At the direction of the warrior who felt the vibration, Sil Pierre stopped shooting arrows at random (by elf standards) and put only one arrow on the string, putting his magic into it.

– Boom!

A large imp appeared after breaking the stone wall of the village. The giant imp, which was 3 to 4 times larger than the other imps, rushed straight towards the hero party, not caring that the other imps were trampled to death under its feet.

– Paang!

An arrow filled with Silpierre's magic was fired. While blowing away several imps in its path, the arrow pierced the giant imp between the eyes without any resistance.

... That was the problem.

"Ah! I really hate him!!"

The giant imp ran without stopping even though there was a hole the size of a coin between its eyes.

Because it was so huge, it couldn't be stopped with just a few arrows. If it didn't penetrate, it might have been able to achieve some stopping power, but shooting the arrow just enough to not penetrate it was difficult even for the elf Silphiere.

A huge imp running towards you with a hole in its head. Throwing one's body to attack a human even with one's brain pierced could only be described as truly demonic.

Gaidon and Lev, who were blocking the village's main gate, could not leave, so the warrior in the middle row had to block the giant imp.

It was easy to sever the giant imp, who was only rushing at him through inertia and whose brain was shattered and could not do anything.

– Bubble... Bubble...

The corpse of the giant imp, cut in half, suddenly began to boil.

"『Holy Shield』!"

– ... Kwaaang!!

Berti quickly set up a shield, but he was unable to block it completely because he did not have enough time to fully contain divine power.

Even though the lethal force of the explosion was blocked, the body fluids of the giant imp that could not be blocked covered both the middle and back rows.

– Cheolpuk.

"..."

When living as a member of a hero party, it is common to get covered in a monster's bodily fluids. But that didn't mean it was a pleasant experience.

"Hey! Are you okay?!"

"... Okay! Are you okay! "Focus on the front!"

As Gaidon and Lev were distracted by the loud explosion heard from behind, the imps began to escape little by little.

As she gave instructions to her party again, Serena sighed softly.

'I feel uncomfortable, but I can't help it. When this battle is over, I have to wash up.'

She was looked up to as a warrior, and although she herself took responsibility as a warrior and tried to fulfill her duties, Serena was still a woman.

She was equally disgusted by her monster's disgusting bodily fluids. Still, Serena kept reminding herself that she was in battle and cut down the attacking imps one after another.

After that, the imp subspecies appeared a few times, but the giant imp did not appear again, and the other subspecies disappeared without causing any damage to the party.

"Ah, it was difficult. Wow. What's wrong with you guys? Are you okay?"

Lev and Gaidon, who returned from the battle lines after the battle, were surprised.

Serena, who was in the middle row, and the other women in the back row all looked like wet mice.

The giant imp's explosion itself was blocked, but because of that, the bodily fluids exploded and sprayed like a water balloon, drenching the clothes.

"Ugh... I feel uncomfortable... "

Silphiere, who was the most exposed among the women because she was neither wearing armor like a warrior nor a nun's uniform covering her body like Saint Bertina, cried as she saw the sticky body fluid sticking to her skin.

I wanted to quickly use clean magic to blow away the dirty bodily fluids, but I couldn't waste magic power when there was still no idea what might be in the village.

The hero party hurriedly wiped off only the bodily fluids directly on their skin with a towel and entered the village.
