Disciple of Immortal - Act 3: Chapter 4: Sacred Beast Urzottle

Act 3: Chapter 4: Sacred Beast Urzottle

I was in the middle of a staring contest while observing the beast before me.

It might charge at me if I let my guard down.

But, since it responded to my call, it mean that the other party was willing to make a pact with me as long as I fulfilled the other party’s condition.

But, majority of high-ranking spirits were moody folks.

The contractor might be end up being eaten alive the moment they offended the spirit.

Anyhow, I decided to use 《Status Check》 first.

「I-I see… Pomera-san, Philia-chan, please get away for now. It might be too dangerous for you guys. Philia-chan, please protect Pomera-san in the case that things go out of control.」

「Are they trying to do something!?」

The spirit beast, Urzottle was glaring at Pomera as they stretched their tongue.

Pomera’s face paled upon making eye contact with Urzottle.

If I exclude Philia who had a cheat item called 《Dream Sand》, Urzottle was the next highest leveled being I’d met after I leaving 《Cocytus》.

Their strength eclipsed that of the demon king Mother.

I wonder if it’s really okay for me to summon such a powerful monster.

It was as if Urzottle had changed into something dreadful when they turned their line of sight to Pomera.

Pomera and Philia stepped back, and I went forward.

It became staring contest between Urzottle and I.

「W-W-What should I do… Philia, Philia is afraid of dog.」

Philia hid behind Pomera.

She might have been bitten by a dog before she turned into the core for Zorophilia, which left her with a trauma towards dogs.

But, if possible, I wanted her to protect Pomera.

Urzottle growled toward me.

W-What should I do now.

If the other party was a belligerent spirit, in most cases, they would only follow those who’re more powerful than them.

But, some spirit was satisfied with playing around or eating a meal in this world.

Some only obey handsome or beautiful people.

Urzottle might look like a belligerent spirit but it didn’t mean that it was going to suddenly charging toward its summoner.

「Fuuh, Philia-chan, sweets… please lend me your sweets! Let’s try to do something for now…」

When I turned around, Urzottle had already sprung toward me.

Crap, they’re the belligerent type after all!

Urzottle leapt toward me from above.

This wasn’t a situation in which I could just brandish 《Hero Sword; Gilgamesh》 toward it. So I could only brace my legs and caught Urzottle with my bare hands.

「UUUUUUUUUUUU…!」

Urzottle was stretching their tongue, licking my body.

I could felt their slippery tongue brushing my skin.

No, this wasn’t just slippery.

I felt tired for some reason. It was as if my mana was being sucked out from my body.

「AWOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!」

They opened they mouth, as if trying to eat me.

I put more strength into my arms, and flung Urzottle away from me.

「GYAI!?」

Urzottle might’ve not expected that a human like me could overpower them.

They rolled around defenselessly on the ground.

But it leapt again in the middle, heading toward me again.

I-It seems this spirit was a tough one.

Was this what they referred to as a trial of strength with the spirit?

And just when I was wondering what was coming next, Urzottle was already running in a circle as if trying to trap me in the center of the circle.

Fortunately, it seemed to have no interest in Pomera.

Philia’s teeth were still rattling non-stop as she hid behind Pomera.

… Even though Philia was way more powerful than Urzottle if they fought for real.

Urzottle, who was circling around me, gradually accelerated.

And when its speed almost reached twice its original speed, it leapt toward me in a straight line.

I leaned forward to dodge that charge.

Urzottle didn’t give up, it ran around me again, and leapt again.

I parried that charge.

Maybe I should deal a slightly heavier blow on them this time.

I have had no idea about the sense of the spirit so I had to be careful when doing this.

When I was about to dodge again for who know how many times right now, I felt that my body got pulled in by something.

Their two tails entwined my body.

「… They got me eh!」

Urzottle dragged me around as it was and threw me into the air.

「GAH!」

Urzottle sprung up straight toward me who was thrown in the air.

I couldn’t dodge this one in time so I could only nullify the impact.

I did have the option of dodging with space-time magic, but I chose to solve this with brute force this time.

I twisted my body to spun in the air and landed a kick to Urzottle’s lower-jaw.

Urzottle spun once in the air and fell to the ground with its belly facing up.

And just like that, I dove from the air, toward its exposed abdomen.

After landing on Urzottle’s abdomen, I grabbed with both hand.

「… Maybe I used too much strength on the last attack.」

Surprisingly, Urzottle just rolled like that without resisting.

I mean, they’re supposed to be able to withstand my attack at their level and yet…

Urzottle just rolled on the ground, gazing toward me as they showed their stomach.

Their breathing quickened, looking toward me as if expecting something.

… Could it be that it wasn’t actually hurt by that attack, they’re actually showing submissive pose?

I approached carefully, and rubbed Urzottle’s abdomen.

「KUN, KUUN, KUN!!」

Urzottle raised a shrill voice unbefitting of its appearance.

It twisted its body with a seemingly delighted look on its face.

「H-Have you finally… acknowledged me?」

I asked Urzottle.

Urzottle suddenly rose up, its two tails swinging quickly.

It seems it acknowledged me.

But, I wonder why its only acknowledging me at this time.

I opened 《Akashic Record》 since the other party was a complete mystery to me.

【Urzottle】《Phantasmal-Tier》

High-rank spirit dog.

It is spirit who rules over death and is feared by humans.

They can deprive the other party of mana by licking them.

People with low level might die immediately due to that.

They originally loved to be spoiled but most of their contractor candidates died due to the overwhelming difference in their level.

That’s why they look for powerful people.

They love play-biting and playing tag.

‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐

Ooh, this book could actually display the information about spirits too, eh.

… Contrary to their appearance, they turned out to be a spoiled child.

Anyhow, spirit over level 2000 should be able to give me 《Yggdrasil’s Droplet》.

With this, I acquired all necessary ingredients for 《Ether》.

「Y-You did it, Kanata-san!」

Pomera approached delightfully.

Following after Pomera from behind was Philia.

「Pomera-san, this might be a bit too dangero-…」

But then, faster than me finishing my words, Urzottle had already leapt and stood in front of Pomera, and proceeded to lick her face and body.

「KUUN, KUUUN!」

Pomera who suddenly got plastered with saliva all over her body just rooted on where she stood with dumbfounded look on her face.

But, her face lost its color few seconds later, and ended up crumpled on where she stood.

「K-K-Kanata-shaan… My body, my body feels really cold, and heavy… And I feels… empty for some reason…」

Pomera hugged her body as she sat on the ground, trembling like newborn calf.

「H-HANG IN THERE, POMERA-SAN!」

I ran toward Pomera while calling her name.

It seems her entire mana pool was sapped away in just one lick.

Philia was looking at Pomera with the look as if this was the end of the world.

「Kuun…」

Urzottle’s tail dropped listlessly as if it was apologizing for the accident.
