Chapter 186
We made our way towards the quarry to take down the Cyclops .
Since the quarry was basically the whole side of a mountain, over time miners had cut out the large step-like structure into the rocky side .
We spotted the quarry long before we arrive . Our target was quite large, so-
“-so, that’s a Cyclops…”
The Cyclops was about four meters tall, more or less man-shaped with one eye, and was stomping about the quarry as though he owned the place .
“As usual, big as heck . ” was Dora-chan’s remark as he studied the Cyclops .
“He’s big but he’s slow, no match for us . Let’s take him down quickly, Dora, Sui!”
“Ah, please wait a minute!”
Fer, who was about to charge into the field stopped to give Mukouda a belligerent look . “Nuu, what is it?”
Ahem, “It turns out that a Cyclops’ skin could be turned into valuable leather, so please try not to injure it too much when you subjugate it . ”
Yoran-san was the one who told me this . The Cyclops’ skin and eyeball were valuable material . Moreover, since it was an A Rank monster, it should have a magic stone inside . Yoran-san had specially said that the guild will be very grateful to purchase any materials we could extract from the Cyclops . ”
“Take it down without too much damage… uuumu…”
“If it’s too difficult, it’s alright . ”
“Of course it’s not difficult . Alright, you want us to take it down without damaging it too much . Let’s do it!”
Ah, I might have ruffled his pride a bit . For Fer to loudly declare that he’s going to take down a huge creature without damaging it too much, I wonder what he’s going to do?
“Dora, Sui, you heard him? Take down the Cyclops without damaging it too much . Let’s go!”
“Alrighty!”
“Okay!”
Fer took the lead and leapt forward with an almighty bound, followed by Dora and Sui,
Since I would just get in the way, I opted to observe the subjugation from afar . Right here, to be exact .
“Roooaaaarrrrr!!”
The Cyclops saw Fer and the rest rushing towards him and raised its thick legs to crush them underfoot .
——Boom!
There was quite a significant pause before the foot actually landed with an earth-shattering sound .
…Yes, I see what they mean by this thing being slow .
Fer and Dora-chan called them idiots, I can sort of see why . With this sort of strength and speed, none of my familiars would get a single scratch on them .
“Roarrr!” Fer ran forward, gathering speed until he launched himself into the air with a roar . He landed on the Cyclops’ arm and using it as a springboard, leapt onto the Cyclops’ head .
Zzappp—!
Powerful electricity bolted out from Fer’s front paw, zapping the Cyclops right in the brain . It had the same effect as taking hit via a really powerful stun gun to the head .
“Roooaaaaarr . . ”
The Cyclops howled miserably as he fell to his knees .
Dora-chan took advantage of his small size and zipped over… to land just between the Cyclops’ chest .
Dogonn — zzppp!
“Yahoo! One powerful shock straight to the heart!”
D-dora-chan, did you just give a perfectly working heart a cardioversion shock…?
That’s quite a brutal attack .
“R…roa…”
The Cyclops leaned forward, both hands pressing against its heart gasping for breath .
“Sui is next!” Sui chirped . From her extended slime tentacle, a single Acid Bullet attack was released .
Pew!
The high-velocity attack pierced through the Cyclops in the belly like a speeding bullet .
“…roa…”
Thud .
The Cyclops died on the way down, falling to the ground with a pathetic thud .
And that was how the Cyclops subjugation ended .
“Umu, it’s done . ” Fer nodded to himself in a dignified way .
“Haha, woohoo! Our team just mows you down easy!” Dora-chan was zooming around, making victory loops .
“Yay~ Hooray~” Even Sui-chan was bouncing around energetically .
Nevertheless, I could not help thinking that it was over way too quickly .
I had sort of prepared myself for it though .
After getting a shock to the brain and heart, then a final shot through the belly, anything would have died…
Though the attacks were rather spectacular, the way the Cyclops just fell over and die was a rather anti-climatic . However, considering the number of people who had been killed and eaten by this guy… I’d say he probably deserved it .
I went over to where everyone was getting pumped up over another victory . “To beat that monster so quickly, I guess I should have expected it of you guys . ”
“To us, that monster is nothing but a splinter on the road,” Fer said with a smug look on his face .
To compare an A Rank Cyclops to a splinter on the road… all the Adventurers who had shed blood and sweat to raise their ranks would probably cry if they ever heard this .
Well, to be fair, if Fer, Dora and Sui teamed up, they could probably take down a flying dragon without much problem .
Also, Fer had actually hunted down an Earth Dragon all by himself .
Elland-san, that dragon otaku told me that of the large flying dragon species, there exist the Red Dragon and Black Dragon types . Both were designated as S Rank monsters and were quite violent .
That said, this ‘Wonder Team’ could probably take them down easily . Anyway, there aren’t that many dragons in the first place, so we probably won’t meet any .
Well, let’s take the Cyclops to the guild to be dismantled .
I walked over to inspect the body . Aside from the burnt mark on the head zapped by Fer’s Thunder Magic, and the small burnt mark on the chest from Dora-chan’s Thunder Magic . There was also the hole in the belly pierced by Sui . It was barely 2cm wide .
Aside from those injuries, there were barely any scratches on the skin .
Too amazing, it looked like I could keep my word with the guild . I placed the Cyclops’ body into my [Item Box] for safekeeping and looked up at the sky . The sun was still shining brightly since it took them barely any time to subjugate the Cyclops .
“What do you want to do? It’s still quite early, should we head back?”
“No, let’s have lunch first . ”
“My tummy is rumbling . ”
“Sui is also hungry…”
Aah, it’s that time of the day after all .
Well, since it’s lunchtime, let’s have lunch… wait, all the pre-made food had been eaten, what should I do?
I looked through my [Item Box] and only found some cooked rice, and of course, the meat .
Rice, rice, rice, meat, meat, meat… ah! Let’s make that!
[Gumihou: … shoot, I’m hungry too!]
