But just as they were starting to wash Lawrend's body with the clear pond water.
Something caught Aezel's feet.
"Huh?"
Aezel looked behind her feet.
"AIEEE! What the hell!" Aezel shrieked
There was a giant black slug hidden under the water. It had various tentacles over its body. It gripped her feet and started to slowly drag her over.
"What happened!?" Lawrend shouted in reaction. He turned around and looked at the shrieking Aezel.
"M-Master! T-There's a giant slug under the water! It's slowly dragging me!" Aezel answered in a panic.
"What!?"
He and Aleshia looked behind her and saw a dark shadow under the water. Suddenly, two large eyes exited out of the water. The two eyes stared at Lawrend and Aezel.
"Eeew! That's a disgusting slug!" Aleshia shouted in disgust.
"Aezel! Stop panicking! Use your divine lightning. I will help you," Lawrend shouted to gain her attention.
"Y-Yes!"
Aezel could feel the slimy tentacle wrapping around her feet. She tried to ignore that disgusting feeling and pointed her finger towards the eyes of the giant slug.
Booom!
A giant arc of golden lightning ripped the water apart and hit the eye of the giant slug.
"I did it!"
But just as she was celebrating, she felt the tentacle pull on her stronger before ultimately causing her to fall on her back.
"Ahhh!"
"Aezel!"
"Sister Aezel!"
Lawrend and Aleshia grabbed both of her arms and pulled her.
Aezel almost fell into the water. If that happened, she would have drowned and died. Thankfully, Lawrend and Aleshia were quick to react.
"Aghh… What happened?? It didn't work?" Lawrend asked as he pulled Aezel.
"Let me handle this, Master. Can you get my dagger for me?" Aleshia asked.
"Alright!" Lawrend nodded his head.
He waited for Aleshia to fully wrap her arms around Aezel's body before he let go.
He turned around and ran towards the side of the pond. He grabbed Aezel's dagger that was lying around and ran back.
"Ahhh!"
"Ahh! No!"
To Lawrend's shock, the two of them were upside down in the air. The tentacles grabbed their legs and raised them in the air.
Various other tentacles started wrapping around their naked bodies.
"Ah!" Aezel released a moan as a tentacle slid across her nipples.
"N-No!" Aleshia watched in horror as a tentacle started moving towards her crotch.
"Aleshia!"
Lawrend threw the sheathed dagger towards her.
Aleshia immediately turned her head towards him. She then caught the dagger.
"You disgusting perverted monster! Only Master can touch that place!"
Aleshia pulled the dagger out of its sheath and slashed the perverted tentacle.
*Shlop*
The tentacle was sliced like fresh sashimi. Aleshia raised her body and also sliced the tentacle holding onto her leg.
*Splash*
She fell into the water in a huge splash.
Meanwhile, Aezel's upper body was already wrapped with the tentacle. She can't move at all.
"N-nngh…"
Her masochistic tendencies were starting to enjoy the pain.
"Sister Aezel, are you really gonna let that monster touch you all over? I thought you pledged yourself to serve Master only forever?" Aleshia asked her with a frown.
Aezel's eyes widened. She gained clarity in her mind and resisted the tentacles.
Aleshia moved over to her and flipped in a beautiful arc in the air before slicing the tentacles off of Aezel's body.
"Ahh!"
*Splash*
Aezel fell into the water. She removed the tentacles still wrapping around her body.
As for the slug, it only had one eye left. The other one was bleeding.
It slowly crept toward them. It was a slug so its movement was fairly slow even with its huge size.
Several tentacles suddenly appeared out of the water and attacked Aleshia who stood in front.
"Hmph."
Aleshia moved to the side and avoided the tentacles while slicing up the other tentacles in her way.
"Aleshia! It's useless! The slug is regenerating those tentacles!" Lawrend shouted to her.
Aleshia turned her head towards the tentacles that she had already sliced. They were slowly growing new tentacles out of them.
"What kind of a monster is that!?" Aleshia exclaimed in shock.
She ran back towards them. She left the pond water with Aezel.
"It's immune to the divine lightning since it's in the water, it has tentacles, and it can regenerate those tentacles. What kind of a slug is that!?" Lawrend shouted in disbelief.
"It's probably one of those rare monsters, Master. It's in an open area and the only water source in the surrounding forest. It must have eaten a lot of other monsters already," Aleshia replied.
"Probably. I wonder what it's called."
They watched leisurely as the giant slug slowly moved towards them. It was very slow, so they didn't worry.
"Let's quickly leave. Another one of those might appear just like what happened with that eagle," Lawrend said as he grabbed his clothes on the grass.
"Yes, Master."
"Yes, Master."
Aezel and Aleshia responded. The two of them followed suit and started wearing their clothes.
But just as they were getting started, the slug had already left the water.
"Let's go, Aleshia. Let's fly further away first," Aezel said.
"Mm."
But just as Aezel and Aleshia were getting ready to leave, a deep sound echoed from the horizon
"Huh? Wing flaps?"
Lawrend turned towards the north.
*Fwoosh, fwoosh*
A giant white bird flew towards them with its huge wings.
"I-It's a giant bird!" Lawrend exclaimed in shock.
"Let's hide, Master!" Aleshia said and grabbed his hand.
"Halt! Humans, I came with no malicious intentions. Oh? You were the same demon and human before?" the Venerated White Roc said as it flew towards them. It recognized Lawrend and Aezel from before.
"Huh?"
The three of them stared at the roc in confusion.
The Venerated White Roc landed beside the pond and stared at the 'giant' slug.
She pecked the slug before swallowing it directly into her stomach.
"..."
"..."
"..."
"That was a Giant Carnivorous Slug. You guys are lucky that you weren't caught off guard. If you had sex in the water, it would have swallowed the three of you," the Venerated White Roc said.
