Chapter 100: Brown comet
The prairie of the night was filled with cold air.Because the sun already set and the night came during the move.
The grass’s scent is chilled and stronger than during the day.
I confirm Zeno-kun and Felnote-san’s safety and went with three people away a little from the carriage.
If they were like what Kuzuha-chan said, they must be near here ...
“I can’t feel the smell of the beast, but ... Kuzuha-chan, are you sure they are really here?” (Arge) (Kindly reminder Arge smell skill only lvl 1)
“The beastkin is used to sniffing, it seems to be hiding well in the smell of the grass, but there is no mistake.” (Kuzuha)
I see.If Kuzuha-chan is saying so, it must be no mistake.
She seems to have lived a hunting life long before she met me, and I should trust that smell ability.
“Hmm...”
Richelle-san is looking around with a wondered face.
Contrary to Kuzuha-chan who listens with vigilance, she only shakes her ears like excited.
“It’s wolf-like demon, it is a species that makes cunning hunting, although it wasn’t able to do anything on demon continent, especially in my territory.” (Richelle) (Because this demon is weak)
“Richelle-san, you can see it?” (Arge)
“Yes, because I already had them on my visual. But they aren’t very tasty ...” (Richelle)
Richelle regretfully sighs. Her head seems to have been full of eating.
Regardless of her sign, her appearance was beautiful. Her blond hair is shaking due to the night wind and reflecting the moonlight shone well on her brown skin.If I don’t know anything about her, she will be a fantastic sight to behold.
“My name is Richelieu Arc Valeria, I will show you the power of the Valeria family” (Richelle)
Her purple eyes narrowed down because she was concentrated.
Her small fingers move in the air and eventually protrude to the heavens. Her spreading five fingers like trying to grab the air and it is somewhat fantastic.
Because she is a race good with magical power, I thought she will use magic. However that expectation was betrayed in her next chanting.
“Flowing down, O heavenly flower. 「Flowing Flower Comet」“ (Richelle)
(Translator’s Joke: TRACE ON)
It came at the moment her words was spoken.
It fell from the sky, like a flowing water, a bow that formed a form that looks like a meteor trajectory. (空から降ってきたのは、流れる水のようにも、流星の軌跡のようにも見えるフォルムをした弓)(TN: Don’t ask me to explain, I don’t know how to as well)
A large bow, which is as high as Richelle-san’s height, reflects the moonlight and shines in a blue color. She gently use her fingers to grasp it, the shining curve bow look like a crescent moon.
Kuzuha-chan opened her eyes (in surprise) and talked about what it is.
“Is that a Magic Artifact?“ (Kuzuha)
“Because this child can’t come without calling it, I couldn’t use it while still restraining ... But the restriction has disappeared already. Arge-sama, Kuzuha-sama. Because it is quite dangerous, please get down” (Richelle)
As she smiling, Richelle is looking at the meadow. Is she tilted the bow a little bit to aiming?
In Richelle-san hand is a big bow「Flowing Flower Comet」, what it will shoot is the arrow of the essence, not normal arrow.However,Magic Artifact is a special weapon using the owner’s magical power. That’s why she must take her magical power in consider.
“Wishless” (Richelle) (願いませ: Negaimase)
(Translator’s Joke: Broken Phantasm)
As her words were spoken, the Magic Artifact special ability occurred.
The bowstring shines like a star in the night sky and converges on her fingertips.The golden light illuminates the blue bow.
Magical power touches my skin enough to feel even I’m a little away.It is evidence that the golden arrow that appeared was definitely created by Richelle’s magical power.
“As long as you still have magical power, it will be an arrow-unnecessary bow, right?” (Arge)
“That’s enough magic power. Now. Basic authority: attack!” (Richelle)
The free-string bow shoot out the magical arrow.
It tore up the air in the night and the flied like a meteor.
It leave a loud wind noise and the sounds of scattered grass.And the beast’s scream echoes in the night.
“She hit it!” (Kuzuha) (Atari mashita ~wa)
At the same time Kuzuha said that, I also sense it.Night wind brought the smell of the beast’s blood to me.
“It isn’t necessary to shoot all of them because they aren’t something we can eat, the wolve are wise, they should choose to retreat with a few more shots” (Richelle)
While saying with a dignified voice, Richelle-san bowed down and breathed deeply.It is a move similar to the residual heart in archery.
“One more time, Wishless” (Richelle)
The loud noise resounded in the night again and the stars appeared.
Richelle-san’s movement is smooth and beautiful, and she keep shooting repeatedly.
By the time she finished the fourth shots and the smell of blood is filling the place. And then she was lowering her「Flowing Flower Comet」.
“It seems like they are retreated ... I can see the grass swaying away.” (Richelle)
From what she said, It looks like Richelle-san is able to grasp the movements of the wolves visually.
Is it a race passive ability or does she have the skill of visual strengthening?Either way, she seems to have good eyes.
“I am feel sorry for them, but when there’s blood smell of carnivorous beast, other beasts will not be able to attack, so we can rest assured during meals”
While making words, Richelle-san raised her big bow.
A bow from her hand soon become a particle light and rises to the night sky just like we
watched the stars return to the sky.
“That bow usually floats in the sky ...?” (Arge)
“Yes, it is in the sky just like a star, it only appears when the owner calls. Of course you can also call during the day” (Richelle)
“... So how, how do you make contract?” (Arge)
Contract with Magic Artifact is done by sending magical power to it.The other day I also experienced, I signed a contract with a katana like「Dream of water Lily」. But not even I can send magic power that far in the sky to contract with it.
“It’s an ordinary bow until we sign the contract with it, and after contracted, it hidden itself in the sky.” (Richelle)
“Hmm ... I see, it’s interesting, is not it?” (Arge)
“Yes, it is a good child that doesn’t need to carry along” (Richelle)
I see, certainly it’s good that it doesn’t become a baggage, it is a powerful advantage to be able to summon it instantly any time.
This is probably the reason why when she first met Richelle, she was completely sealed and don’t allow even speak a word.
“Let’s go back then, Arge-sama, Kuzuha-sama” (Richelle)
“Well, it is about time, I think Felnote-san and Zeno-kun already cooked the dinner” (Arge)
“Yes, today’s meal seems to be a field rabbit that Kuzuha-sama hunted, I am really looking forward to it” (Richelle)
“... She is drooling, but what is she talking about” (Kuzuha)
“It seems that she is looking forward to the hare rabbit that Kuzuha-chan has caught” (Arge)
“... Because only eight of them were hunted, I ask you please show some moderation” (Kuzuha)
Normally it’s more than enough, but because we have Richelle-san here, so it’s certainly never enough.
We realized again the difference from the journey we had until now, and we returned to the coach.
After that, it goes without saying that Richelle-san had flattened all the results of Kuzuha’s hunting.It was Dark Elf-san who had bad fuel consumption, who take other poeple hardwork even she also worked.
