To the Depth of Abyss

Chapter 83: Bird Catcher vs Monkey King

The maids and the hunters still debating over if the maids should give the hunters a way to the bird catcher. 

Pwiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiitt~!

But suddenly, they heard a strong whistle comes from the bird catcher's whereabouts. Then the hunters realized what it was. 

"Boys! Charge before that mother f*cker leave!"

The male hunters start to break through the maid's defense. 

There, the big sister maid screams a command: "Girls! Stand your ground! Don't let those boys break through!"

Diana said they don't want to inflict a commotion. But that state now is happening. 

"Kaaaaaaaaa~!"

Griphy finally arrived, flying at the scene. His appearance made the entire people startled. 

"Let's go, Elisa!"

"Eh?!" 

Elisa got carried in Diana's hand. Diana jumped, then reached to Griphy's feet with Elisa in her left hand 

"Kyaaaaa~!"

They let the Bird Catcher run away. All the male hunters start bullshitting. 

"Get back here, you coward!"

"Fight me and give that Gryphon whistle!"

Meanwhile, the maids want the bird catcher to come back again next time. 

"Please come back again!"

"Please comeback and marry me!" said the big sister maid.

They had to leave the crowd in commotion, left a feeling of guilt to Elisa. Though they have to, if not, maybe even bigger commotion will appear. 

"You okay, Elisa?!"

"Yes!"

They finally back to track, flying to Seven Colour Mountains. But this time Griphy fly slower and closer above Monkey King Rift. 

"Elisa, look!"

Diana pointed at one certain point. 

There is a group of Harvester Hunter. They are hanging in Rift forest to harvest Rift nature fruits. 

"Let's greet them!"

Diana tells Elisa to wave at those harvesters when they will fly past them. 

Elisa did what she told to. But somehow, when the Harvester noticed them - "There is Monkey King!" - they shouted about something. 

"Do you hear what they said, Miss Diana?!"

"Yes, that was a cheer for me to go even faster!"

Diana whipped Griphy's saddle and they go even further. 

"I don't think that was what they said!"

Well, Elisa can't refuse if Diana wants to go faster. Though flying, sliding in the air between two rift wall full of green forest is so much fun. 

"Elisa, you know about Monkey King Rift's monsters, right?!"

"Yes, if I'm not wrong, they are "

"They should be attacking us now! But I don't see any of them trying to attack us!"

If you are in their field of sight, within a second, with their kangaroo-legged, they would dash toward you. You can easily kill them, but their number is about 100 per group. 

"Actually, since we dive into between this rift, they already and still trying to attack us!"

Diana pointed behind them, where there are shadows dashed from left to right, or right to left side of the rift. 

"They couldn't catch us?" asked Elisa. 

"Of course they can! They won't be able to match Griphy's speed! Right, boy?!"

"Kaaaaaaa!"

Since Diana said that, then it's okay for Elisa to breathe a relief. 

"Though if there is a monster who can match Griphy's speed, that would be the Monkey King!"

"Miss Dianaaaaaaaa!"

"But don't worry! We can't beat him in no time! Right, boy?!"

In response to Diana's question, Griphy for some reason stopped his speed. 

"What's wrong, boy?!"

At first, Diana doesn't know why his Gryphon stopped for no reason. But then she realized, the little girl who should be holding to her, is now gone.

"Oh shut, Elisa!"

Quite far from behind Diana and Griphy.

"No, no."

Elisa being held by three times bigger Monkras.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Monkey King sees Elisa in curiosity. Like he is holding something precious. His subordinates were already around them.

The Monkras also looked curiously at the Hunter they had just captured.

Monkey King brought Elisa closer to his face.

"Kya! No!"

That sight was terrifying. Seeing a monkey three times bigger than a human looking at you with an expression of interest.

"Hold it right there!"

Suddenly, a knight with his Gryphon came to the rescue.

"Miss Diana!"

"I'm sorry, Elisa! I didn't expect this year they had buffed Monkey King so they can match Griphy's speed!"

It was completely unexpected. Looks like the Floor 2 system has buffed Monkey King even stronger than last year.

Monkey King looked at Diana with a defiant gaze. Previously he managed to kidnap something "precious" from that Hunter. But now he comeback to against Monkey King.

All the Monkras feels their King's tension is getting higher. Then they start screaming - "Huhu ~! Haha ~!"

The commotion was a sign that Monkey King had found a suitable opponent for him.

Monkey King casually throws Elisa to the air.

"Kyaaaaaaa!"

Elisa being caught by four Monkras. It was an order from the Monkey King, for the Monkras to guard the reward of the fight.

Monkey King jumped into one tree in front, then put on a stance.

It is a sign that Monkey King wants to fight Diana. And from the monster's expression, he was very confident that he would beat the Bird Catcher and his Gryphon.

"Oh, you want to fight me, eh?"

Diana took off her flying glasses, helmet, and cloth covering her mouth. Then put on a sinister expression that surprised Elisa a little.

"Then let's do this! I would finish you before you even noticed!"

Diana raised her right hand. There were a lot of gusts of wind that began to envelop her right hand. The stream of wind began to appear so that naked eye can see, creating a shape like armor, and a sword that Diana holds.

The atmosphere got even more noisy when the opponent from the Monkey King took out her weapon. On the other hand, the Monkey King started to show a bit of fear.

What Diana did was none other than Abyssal Arts, and that Arts is a powerful one.

"To create an armor and a sword with Elemental Arts, is so difficult even a veteran Caster can't do it that easily," Elisa muttered while amused by that view.

But Diana can do just that in a few seconds. Diana is ready to slaughter all the monkeys in Monkey King Rift.

"Now, what are you waiting for?! Come forth at me!"

The Monkras became even more boisterous because their King was faced with a challenge that sounded dismissive of him.

"Kraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaakk!"

Monkey King suddenly shouted. His screams stopped all the noise from Monkras.

Elisa didn't know what was going on. But it looks like a pretty big fight is about to happen.

Up front, Diana is still waiting for what her opponent will do.

Monkey King was still silent, creating tension in the atmosphere. Then he moved up and down. Creates a wobble on the stem he is resting on.

The sound of the leaves swaying around started to bustle. The Monkras did the same as their King.

It was a sign for a great attack.

"Kraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaakkk ~!"

The Monkras jumped, darting towards Diana. There were hundreds of them and surrounded all sides of Diana.

"Miss Diana!"

Diana will be completely immersed in the circle of those monkey monsters.

"[Divine Wind: Six Direction Sphere]!"

But suddenly, the wind around Diana swirled in all directions. Makes the Monkras that were bolting towards her thrown in different directions, or colliding with one another.

Arts that disrupt the direction of the wind in Diana's area is in charge of bringing down the entire monkeys.

Diana has defeated half the opponent's strength. But the boss of the opponent suddenly disappeared somewhere.

"Where is he going?!" asked Elisa.

Whereas previously Monkey King still perched on the tree trunk in front of Elisa.

Monkey King disappeared by taking advantage of the previous moment. No, he's not disappear. He is moving around the area, by jumping, and that made him like invisible.

Elisa realized that because there was a shadow that jumped here and there.

"Miss Diana! Watch out! He jumps so fast that makes him hard to see!"

Responding to Elisa's concern, Diana only smiled confidently.

"You know what, Elisa? To catch Cendrawasih, the system requires you to be able to see the future!"

Diana casually spoke, when in an instant, the Monkey King darted towards her.

When everyone thought that Monkey King succeeded in attacking Diana, the reality was reversed.

Diana managed to stop the Monkey King in midair, by stabbing the boss monkey monster in the stomach.

"Because of that, these perverted monkeys are nothing with the birds in Birds Paradis!"

After killing the King of the Monkey King Rift, Diana got closer to the Monkras group carrying Elisa.

"Give her back to me," said Diana intimidatingly.

The Monkras group trembled, throw Elisa to midair, then they ran away.

Diana catch Elisa up onto Griphy's back. Then Elisa started to cry.

"Waaaaa, that was so scary!"

Diana smiled guiltily for putting Elisa in such danger.

"Ahaha, sorry."
