Unorthodox Guild

Chapter 14: No feel for it, not fully awake, no mood.

"..."

"Hmm, so the slime's level is just too high after all..."

Looking at the blue slime that had become a puddle on the grass: if the effects of the slime potion are correct, the ingredients are enough to wipe out a whole nest of slimes.

"But just now, it seems that we only paralyzed this big guy for about ten seconds."

"..."

Forget it, never mind.

Yesterday, during Kaya's teaching session, Elisa was slacking off, but she still learned a bit about slime-slaying methods.

So, although a few seconds is not long, it was enough for her to shatter the slime's core.

"Hoo hoo, what a mere slime."

A sense of satisfaction welled up inside her; after all, this was the first time she had ever defeated a slime, a monster with such strong magic resistance.

However, although Elisa showed some rare enthusiasm.

However, the continuous monster-hunting had left her with very little magic power.

Overwhelmed by fatigue, Elisa could only plop down on the grass and lie down in a spread-eagle position.

"I'm asking the boss to cook something nice tonight..."

With that thought in mind, I drifted off to sleep.

......

Behind a large tree not far away.

"Waaaah, I finally have a chance to show off in front of Lady Elisa..."

The short-haired girl wielding a sword seemed quite frustrated.

Her little hands struck the tree trunk a few times, her voice weak and feeble... Bang!

The pine cone was smashed by a squirrel in the tree.

"Hmm."

The short-haired girl beside him was silently watching the white figure not far away, seemingly deep in thought.

"I never expected Lady Elisa to have made such progress in just two days..."

From this perspective, the White Demon Court's considerations are not without merit.

"..."

[Blue Slime: lv02] [Blue Slime: lv01] [Blue Slime: lv02]

"Unfortunately, there was still some carelessness."

Watching the blue slimes that seemed to have been lured by the giant slime and were constantly moving closer to Elisa.

"It's not without reason that I'm here to supervise you, Lady Elisa."

A pale yellow aura surrounded it.

The girl closed her eyes and began chanting an ancient and profound incantation.

...........

...........

At the same time.

The Adventurers' Guild of Cute Cats.

"Ugh, what's with this human guild...?"

The black-haired girl sat on the sofa, looking around at her surroundings.

"I just joined the guild, yet they left me all alone in the guild. Isn't that a bit too unguarded?"

A deep purple magic surged forth.

The water glass on the small table just floated up...

Snapped!

It slammed onto the table again, splashing water everywhere.

"Oh dear, yes, I'm sorry..."

Seemingly realizing she had caused trouble, the girl quickly used her sleeve to wipe the water stains...

"Hmm."

I forgot there was no one else here.

"..."

Looking at the cup on the wooden table and the gradually disappearing watermark.

"So, I still can't use it after all..."

Looking at the dissipating magic spell, Yura seemed somewhat disappointed.

"No, no, that's not right."

He shook his head again. "The important thing is to find new heroes."

Even without magic, physical prowess alone is enough to defeat that...

"..."

The girl fell silent.

To be honest, she didn't know the new hero's strength.

Even the hero's name, gender, age, race, height, zodiac sign, Chinese zodiac, MBTI, and the beverage bottle he endorsed are unknown.

What are those beverage bottles that Deng Deng endorses?

Although I don't know how this word came to mind, that's the truth.

She didn't actually have a real grasp on how to defeat the hero.

After all, the knight girl trained by that hero had brought a lot of trouble to her demon territory.

"..."

The hero's strength is only greater than that of the knight girl.

It's even possible that they are already stronger than they are now.

"..."

But Yura had no choice.

Only two years have passed since the Demon King disappeared, and the new hero has already grown to such a level.

If left unchecked...

Yura, whose bloodline to the Demon King is diluted, is not a true Demon King after all... not to mention that she is currently unable to unleash magic.

When the main character (referring to the new hero) is released, the increase in combat power will make her unable to lift her head.

"So, we can't wait any longer."

If she waits any longer, Yura will have to pick out a beverage bottle for herself...

"..."

"...Go for it, Yura!"

After mentally preparing herself, the black-haired girl's gaze hardened even more.

His gaze fell on the counter not far away.

"Let's see if we can find any clues about the hero within this guild..."

............

............

"Boss, Miss Elisa looks like meow."

"..."

"Looks like we have no choice but to try that trick."

"Warriors of the Icecrown Wastes, rise up and obey the Lich King..."

..........

"Hmm..."

The sun had already set more than halfway down.

Only a sliver of warm yellow afterglow remained through the interlacing branches and leaves.

"Ugh—"

The white-haired girl lying on the grass rubbed her eyes.

I had a good night's sleep.

After stretching, I slowly opened my eyes...

"..."

They met each other's gazes.

One pair is cats, and the other pair is humans.

"Miss Elisa, you're finally awake, meow!"

The moment their eyes met, the purple catgirl buried her face in the girl's arms.

"Ugh, Lilia, it itches so much."

The white-haired girl, feeling the fluffy ears, patted Lilia's head.

"I'm sorry to have worried you, Lilia."

She cupped the delicate face in her hands and smiled.

I don't know if she slept well, but Elisa seems to be in a good mood right now.

"Hmm, if Miss Elisa doesn't wake up soon, the boss said he's going to dig a hole and bury you, meow..."

"..."

He looked at the black-haired boy holding a shovel to the side.

"Boss, I'm going to call the police."

"...You'd be better off believing that stupid cat than believing I'm a hero."

shook his head.

However, seeing Elisa's energetic appearance and the fact that she was mostly undamaged except for her shoes and socks, I was relieved.

"..."

As for the shovel in his hand... he only intended to deal with the slime corpses scattered all over the ground.

"But Elisa, you actually managed to beat a slime?"

He had just roughly calculated that there were at least a dozen slime cores scattered on the ground.

Moreover, there were several high-level ones: even if he were given them, it would take some effort, but I didn't expect that Elisa would take care of them all by herself.

"Hmph, that goes without saying."

"I got defeated by the slime yesterday simply because Elisa wasn't prepared. Lag, shaky hands, frame drops, accidental touches, no mood, no feel for the game, just woke up, tendonitis, motion sickness, takeout arrived, phone exploded, I was in the bathroom, my mom knocked, my posture was wrong, my nails weren't trimmed, I forgot to take my medicine, the screen was too slippery, I got targeted, too many mosquitoes, my hair was too oily, the dual swords were too sharp, my teammates were fake, the hunter was too strong, the opponent was a supermodel, I played while watching streamers, while eating, while scrolling through videos, while writing my thesis—it couldn't be my fault. Someone changed the key bindings, and I got killed by Nine-Piece Gate." Oh no, I was chased in the middle of the night, didn't do well on my exam, was matched with a couple, my phone isn't as good as my tablet, aliens have invaded Earth, my phone credit is low, a bubble tea straw poked my nose, my WiFi was stolen, my egg coins were stolen, didn't eat Pizza Hut, didn't listen to "Good Luck," don't understand the new map, my grandma was playing, the cat stepped on the network cable, didn't wash my hands, it's Monday, wearing socks inside out affects brainwaves, my horoscope says today is not a good day for MVP, my ex touched my keyboard, the humidity is too high and the mouse is stuck, I'm tactically closing my eyes and waiting for a miracle, and the pros don't win the first game.

"..."

No, what is this guy saying?

Dude, I see you're pretty good at writing hydrological content. Why don't you try writing light novels?

"hey-hey."

Looking at the boy who stood there dumbfounded, as if his brain had crashed.

The white-haired girl covered her mouth and couldn't help but laugh.

"..."

"Oh well, never mind."

It's good that everyone is alright.

He was exhausted, both physically and mentally, after running at high speed for several tens of minutes.

He let out a long sigh: "If you've rested well, let's go back to the guild. I'll introduce you to the new members..."

"..."

There was no footstep as expected.

Turning his head, he saw the man and cat still sitting on the ground, just looking at him.

"Um, boss."

He revealed a strange smile.

In the afterglow of the setting sun, he opened his arms towards Kaya.

"Elisa's shoes got eaten, so the boss has to carry her back..."

"..."

"Huh? Then, Lilia wants to meow too..."

"Gun."

"Meow..."
