Otherworld Adventure 102 Everyone's Progress 1

It took another 15 minutes or so for their group to arrive at the campsite. When the carriage stopped moving, Ainz quickly jumped off and ran towards a tree before he began throwing up.

Cecil had fallen asleep on the road, so it was Fina and Lucia who were driving the carriage. Oddly enough, it was only the girls who had enjoyed the trip.

"Nahahaha~ Ainz you're soooo weak!" Lucia mocked.

"Sh-shut it! Oop! BLERRRGGHHH!!!"

"Ew, disgusting! You better burn all that and clean up after you're done! I don't want to smell the disgusting stench of your lunch later!"

"D-d.a.m.n it!!! BLEEERRRGGHHH!!"

Cecil finally woke up from his slumber, the first thing he saw was the white furred face of his pet looking down on him.

"What is it Silv?"

"WOOF!"

"Hm?"

Cecil quickly got up and took a look around, it was dark with only the stars in the sky illuminating their surroundings. He turned towards Lucia and the girls who were setting up camp.

"We're here?"

"Yup! Go wash your face in the river. Also, please go help out Ainz over there... he's just too pitiful to watch now." Lucia replied while pointing at Ainz.

"Huh? What's wrong with Ainz?"

Cecil looked towards his friend and saw him pale faced and in the midst of throwing up all his lunch.

"Ugh..." Cecil grimaced, but he still made his way over to Ainz.

He quickly rubbed his back and pressed some pressure points on his body. Cecil also began lightly kneading his friend's temples.

"Urgh... thanks Cecil... phew, I feel much better now. What the heck was that?"

"It's just some technique my parents taught me, helps me get better from sickness quicker."

"Woah, you can actually fall sick?"

"...I'm only hum– I mean, beastkin y'know...I'm no G.o.d." Cecil replied.

"Ahaha~ yeah I guess." Ainz turned towards the vomit on the ground. He raised a hand to cast a fire spell and burnt away the vomit. He then cast a wind magic and cleared the air of the disgusting smell.

The two boys quickly washed their faces in the river and fetched some water for the girls.

After having a quick dinner, the group quickly went to bed. They had already established their night watch rotations with Cecil being the first to keep watch since he had already slept on the carriage earlier.

When the sun finally rose up into the air, the group was already ready to begin their hunt.

"Today's target is... 20 golems? Well, let's make it 30. It's a good opportunity to train so everyone will be required to take down 5 golems on their own. Bring their cores as proof! Once we're finished, we'll quickly head back to the city!"

"So we're all doing it alone this time?" Eli asked.

"Yup, any problems?"

"No, not really... but what about Fina? She's our support and healer..."

Cecil turned towards Fina who was staring back at him with a determined look in her eyes.

"Don't worry! I can handle it! If it's too much for me, I can just run away!"

Cecil nodded and turned towards the rest.

"No one else has any objections?"

"Haha, 5 is too little for the great me! I'll be done long before lunch!" Ainz said, he turned around and began walking deeper into the mountains.

Eli shrugged and followed suit. Velicia stretched a bit before she too, pounced into the mountain range.

"Fina, if you want. I can a.s.sign Silver to you so that he can keep you safe."

"Hmm... although I do welcome the thought, it's okay. I'll do it alone this time. Besides I'm a Water Mage too remember! I have the elemental advantage against these golems!"

"Haha, you're right. Well, don't overdo it and remember to keep your safety as your number one priority!"

"Thanks, Cecil! Don't worry I'll do my best!" Fina confidently said. She turned around and eyed the mountain range. She took a deep breath and began walking up into the mountains, searching for her targets.

"...I'll go and keep an eye on them?" Lucia asked.

"Sure, just make sure they don't know you're there."

"That's simple." Lucia said, and began casting an illusion magic on herself. Cecil stared at the back of the girl who in the next second began to fade away.

Cecil whistled while rubbing his fox ears. "Well, that's really convenient... I didn't think illusion magic could be so useful."

Ever since he got used to staying in his fox form, Cecil formed a habit to rub his ears every now and then. It really felt like they really were his ears and not just some illusion. The sensation coming from his 3 tails also felt real. There was no way that it was only just an illusion. His fox form 'illusion' was more like a 'transformation' instead. Cecil even began wondering if Lucia's magic was only limited to just Illusion magic.

Cecil turned towards Silver who was lying down by the carriage, "Silv, keep watch of our stuff! I'll be heading off now."

"WOOF!"

"Alright, let's go hunting."

Cecil activated Mana Burst and disappeared into the mountains.

******

Over at Ainz's side, the lizardkin mage was currently trekking through the rugged mountain range. He had cast a body enhancement spell on himself and was easily leaping from place to place.

He quickly spotted a lone golem that was wandering around a small plateau like area. He quickly hid behind a boulder and began casting his magic.

Once he finished his incantation, he jumped out from behind the boulder and pointed his staff at the ground under the Armamite Golem.

"Permeate into the ground and trap my enemies! Quagmire!"

The ground under the golem began to soften and a large quagmire formed. The heavy golem began sinking into the ground right away. It began to struggle and tried to move out of the quagmire, but before it could do so, Ainz had already sent his next spell flying towards it.

"Flame Lance!"

There wasn't just one Flame Lance... Ainz had sent a flurry of Flame Lances shooting towards the golem. When the spell struck the golem, there was no visible damage that could be seen from just one lance striking its body, but the mult.i.tudes of flame lances caused the surface of its iron like body to heat up.

The once glistening surface of the golem's body was now glowing red with heat.

"Heh! I learned this just recently. Know that you have the honor to be the first to fall from my new technique!"

"TORNADO! FLAME PILLAR!"

Ainz parallel casted two mid-tier spells. Once the Tornado formed around the golem, a pillar of roaring fire rose from the ground under the golem.

The tornado quickly picked up the flames of the Flame Pillar and turned into a raging tornado of flames.

"Combo Spell! Raging Flames Tornado! WAHAHAHA!!!"

'...oh my gosh.' Lucia thought while holding her forehead. 'He really is just so unbearable to watch...it's no longer funny anymore.'

Lucia quickly turned away and activated her sensing spell. Once she found Velicia, she began making her way hastily towards her.

On Velicia's end, she was pouncing around her targeted golem while sending punches and kicks at it.

The large golem was c.u.mbersome and couldn't match her speed, but its defenses were also too great for her to cause any substantial damages. In fact, her punches and kicks served only to cause damage to her hands and feet instead.

"Ahhhh... it really is hard to beat these things up..." Velicia sighed helplessly. "I wish I knew that aura technique that Cecil and Lucia use... I bet I could beat these guys up with that!"

"...need help Veli?"

"WAAH!!!" Velicia jumped in surprise at the abrupt voice that answered her rant. She quickly turned around and saw Lucia standing not far from her.

"L-Lucia! Don't scare me like that! Geez!"

"Ahaha, sorry I didn't mean too. So, do you need help?"

"Eh? Ahh, it's alright. I'll find some way to beat these things up!"

"Okay... by the way, that aura technique you mentioned..." Lucia paused for a bit, but then decided to give her a hint. "All me and Cecil do was WRAP our bodies in mana. It's pretty simple once you've got the hang of it..."

"!" Velicia widened her eyes in surprise. Then she smiled hearing the advice. She quickly thanked Lucia and turned her attention back towards the golem that was lumbering slowly towards her.

Velicia immediately tried to wrap her fists in mana, but it was difficult to do since she wasn't adept in mana control. She found it hard, but she kept her distance from the golem and continued to try.

Lucia smiled seeing this. She walked away and activated her sensing spell once again, this time she was searching for Eli. Except, she didn't find her, all she found was Fina. So she decided to head on over to her instead.

"Everyone's growing stronger and stronger... by the time the 3rd segment of the tournament begins, I'm pretty sure they'd be able to hold their own against the guys from the faction all by themselves~"

Lucia happily skipped her way towards Fina's location, but suddenly a large golem blocked her way. Lucia kept her smile and simply slashed out with her aura wrapped katana. The golem paused where it stood and Lucia skipped her way around it.

The golem immediately began to collapse into a heap of rubble, Lucia extended her hand and the golem's core quickly flew into her outstretched hand. She nodded lightly and kept the core into her spatial ring.

"Ehehe~ I can do it now too Cel~" Lucia smiled happily and skipped away leaving behind the destroyed golem, not bothering to collect its materials.

Far up on the tree tops, Cecil was sitting down on one of the tree branches observing Lucia and his friends through Mana Sense.

"Uwaaahh... she got unreasonably strong again..."
