VOLUME 2
Chapter 2: The Curse of the Pyramid
Part 4
The following morning, Jun and his party, along with Ryuka, departed from the city as a group of five.
There was a steep mountain called Mount Kunlun. Said to house many raid monsters, it was a rather dangerous place. Consequently, in order to avoid it, they took a roundabout route halfway around the island through the west side towards the Pyramid of the Penglai Emperor. With Eri’s Running magic, it would take almost four days. On the fourth day, the party would stop and rest for a night near the pyramid, and the day after that, they would explore the pyramid. They would return with the help of Ryuka’s black magic return spell to instantly teleport back. That was the schedule.
The Lao Thai housed an active volcano that penetrated the earth in the middle of the island, Kunlun Mountain. The terrain at the center of the island grew very rugged and uneven, but on the edges of the island, it was extremely flat. Moreover, the great visibility meant that even if monsters got near them, they would notice them very quickly.
For this reason, their planned course should turn out quite calm.
During the first day, in order to test their group coordination, they purposely set out for a monster nest. Bomber Bunnies, as those rabbit-like monsters were called, threw peaches that would explode on contact like grenades. Their attack skill was 100, so they were about on par in strength with the party.
As far as Jun’s group was concerned, they didn’t pose any big challenge in a fight.
Just as they got close to the nest, some of the peach-shaped grenades of the Bomber Bunnies hit the nearby ground in a straight line. That was otherwise known a warning attack to demonstrate their impressive aim.
“Aaaaaaaaaaaah! No!! Don’t come here!”
Faced with this, the combat-inexperienced Ryuka stopped, standing on tiptoes. She got startled by the attack, panicked, and suddenly followed up by shooting an area of effect attack, Blast Fireball, into the crowd of Bomber Bunnies. The Bomber Bunnies all instantly targeted Ryuka.
“This is bad, I’ve pulled all of the monsters!”
In order to kill the monsters that stubbornly targetted Ryuka, the rest of the group had to work extremely hard. Afterwards, they tried to avoid battle at all costs.
