章 75: You Are Forever Responsible for What You Have Tamed (2)

I'm suddenly terrified and regret it terribly.

That's when.

I heard the mother centipede's cry.

"Keke, keee..."

I noticed that there was relief mixed in it.

I looked to the right.

Big Eyes is alive.

Twitching, wriggling, clinging to his mother.

'Ah...'

I stopped abruptly.

"What are you doing! Why aren't you running away?"

'...Even if I want to run away, I have no magical power left.'

I have only one option left.

I turned to look at the approaching Riokku.

Yes, I'll jump into his mouth and eat his heart.

I'll have to fight the parasites inside, but.

His saw-like teeth are chattering.

I'll jump in time with that rhythm.

Yeah, fuck it, what else can I do but die.

I wonder if I'll be born as an earthworm in my next life.

He came right up to me.

I couldn't use Leap or Acceleration, but.

I jumped up.

Tak!
