Chapter 541 - Return To The Outpost - Retaking The Outpost...? (part 3)

"Aren't you going to help them?!"

Cranberry gasped while holding up her baseball bat scepter as she was in the middle of conjuring a powerful primal spell – the proper way this time.

"Nah, they got this – just make sure to have our spell ready just in case."

Zombie snickered and waved his hand dismissively.

"...haa... fine – I hope that you know what you're doing."

The red-haired girl breathed out and shook her head with a worried expression.

"Aww... look at you – how does it feel to be the one who doesn't have all information for a change~?"

"...!"

The blue undead knight smiled happily and asked, causing the red-haired girl to flinch.

"Skwee...? (Mommy and daddy are quarreling, should we go help our new friends...?)"

Blueberry looked between Cranberry and Zombie while leaning on Baron's side.

"(No. Master said that we should sit that one out so we will do just that.)"

The red dragon responded and spread one of his wings to cover the blue griffin just in case she would want to straight-up rush the fort too – but for a change, he didn't squeeze her to his side only blanketing her gently.

"Skwee...? (Eeeehhhh...?)"

Blueberry screeched in a complaint but ended up only nuzzling closer to Baron.

Meanwhile inside the outpost atmosphere wasn't anywhere near as relaxed as outside...

"The lord's property...?! They must be the reinforcements! We cannot allow those creatures to take over this outpost!"

The young-looking leader of the group of five that showed up called out, clenching his weapon – the holy-element empowered sword.

"Lime, Lemon, make sure to release the rest! Avocado, and I will protect you! Lychee, try to do something about the spider monster!"

He called out to his comrades, raising his kite shield with a determined expression...

*CRUSH*

"GU-HUAH...!"

...just in time to block a rock spear that flew at him from the direction of the smashed gate.

"Cherry!"

"I-I'm alright! The spider web is weak to fire, free the others!"

The two magic casters called out in panic but their leader waved his hand dismissively and shook his head in response.

"Tsk... Talk about luck."

Plum – the teal-scaled lizardfolk clicked his split tongue while reaching out his glowing hand as another rock spear formed and raised up from the ground for him to pick up.

"Have another one!"

The lizardfolk called out and threw the rock spear – this time he aimed at the spellcasters at the back.

"IN YOUR DREAMS!"

The tank of the human group shouted and blocked the attack, gritting his teeth and getting pushed back – but not faltering from the power.

Using that moment the spellcasters shot out fireballs at their trapped comrades – or at least the ones who could still fight – with that, the armored centaur was again locked into battle with the armored warrior with a tower shield, the warrior with the bastard sword and shield combo, and the mage.

"Good! Avocado – I'm leaving the girls to you, I'll take on the lizardman!"

Cherry – the leader of the human party that enter the stage fashionably and annoyingly late called out while pointing his sword at the smirking Plum who already had another spear prepared and aimed.

After activating all of his empowering skills the young man charged straight at the lizardfolk with no hesitation whatsoever...

"Hay – the spider keeps that one cocooned up close to her – doesn't that mean that she considers her a threat? Free her next!"

"Ugh- shut up, Avocado, we know what we have to do!"

Lime, the money-hungry healer, snapped at the tank.

"Now, now – if you will be so harsh with him, he will never start to like you back."

Her older twin sister, Lemon, the mage – snickered, teasing her younger sister even in the dangerous situation that they have found themselves in.

"Shut up! I don't like him at all!"

Lime snapped back with her face completely red.

Their talk would have been overjoyed seeing and hearing the girl's reaction...

"Got chuu~!"

"UWAAAAAAAAAAAAH!"

If not for the fact that he got caught by a swooping harpy whose claws dug into the armor on his shoulders giving the half-woman half-bird a proper grasp on his so that she could lift-off back into the sky with ease.

------

"Ah-ah! What a nice voice! You are making Sumac blush~!"

The colorful harpy called out in a cheerful tone that did not fit the situation at all.

"Very funny, you overgrown sparrow...!"

Avocado gasped, grabbing onto one of her legs – for a second, the tank considered to cut it or hit It hard enough for the flying monster to release him, but one look at the ground far beneath them was enough to discourage a decision like that.

"Ehehe~! I'm funny – so you like me~? Hey, nice human, I like you too! Say, I want to have chicks but the king had refused me – do you want to help me out instead~?"

"H-huh...?"

Avocado gasped, he managed to tear his eyes off of the fort that from their height looked like a toybox and stared at the excited harpy, completely dumbfounded.

-------

Meanwhile back on the ground...

*SLAM*

"GU-HUGH!"

The rogue, Lychee, got caught by Pawpaw, the arachne, and smashed against the wall which caused the girl to lose both her weapons and her breath.

With her next move, Pawpaw pushed lychee down and the spider's lower body turned her into another cacoon within a few short seconds.

With that the arachne had a good view at the entire battlefield – including the colorful harpy, Sumac, stealing away the tank of the new arrivals, which left the spellcasters alone and prime for getting attached.

"Hmmm?"

But right as she was about to shower them with poison, Pawpaw flinched, seeing another monster slithering his way towards them, so she instead turned to Tangelo and Coconut who had far more trouble with the three humans than could be expected from the initial outcome.

As it turned out, the cooperation between the tank, the warrior, and the mage was on a whole another level and even the armored centaur empowered by the minotaur shaman couldn't do anything against them.
