“I’ll pull the boss until it’s far away! Everyone else just focus on getting rid of the minions!”

Without waiting for a response, Kisanuki spun around and began running westward, into the swamp. The slime boss followed at a much faster speed than Yuuma would have expected for something its size.

This was too reckless. Kisanuki knew as much about MMORPGs, if not more, as Yuuma did, so he had to know how risky it was to pull boss monsters. For instance, even if the boss wasn’t able to catch up with Kisanuki, it could still chip away at his hit points using long-range attacks, eventually killing him. If Kisanuki had some way of evading or blocking the water laser, it might be a different story, but Yuuma was pretty sure Kisanuki hadn’t accessed his demon exploit yet.

It was too late to tell him to come back, though. If Kisanuki turned around now, he would just wind up running smack-dab into the boss instead.

“Kisanuki… He must feel responsible for using up too many of the plants…,” Aoi whispered.

She looked like she was about to cry as she watched the silhouettes of Kisanuki and the slime boss disappear into the distant fog. Maybe Kisanuki did feel guilty, but if so, the blame lay as much at Yuuma’s feet for failing to tell Kisanuki to slow his pace.

“Let’s eliminate the slime minions as quickly as we can and then chase after Kisanuki,” Yuuma said, trying to keep his voice under control. The others nodded in unison.

The twelve Bouncy Blobs that the boss had left behind approached from the front, bouncing and jostling as they moved. Both magical and physical attacks worked against the Bouncy Blobs, but as boss minions, they were much stronger than they looked.

Yuuma and the others readied their weapons. Hokari nocked an arrow to his bow while Chinami held a dagger ready by her hip. Yuuma and Kenk assumed battle art stances, while Sawa and Nagi prepared to cast. Even Aoi raised her crosier into the air.

“They’re coming!” Kenk shouted.

As soon as Kenk spoke, the slimes, every single last one, bounced high into the air.

Hang in there, Kisanuki! We’re on our way! Yuuma willed as he lifted his shortsword into the air, his thoughts directed toward Kisanuki’s HP bar, still visible in the upper-left-hand corner of his vision.
