The Mightiest Hero of Black ~My Party Members Betrayed Me so I'll Stick With The Strongest Monster~-Chapter 64: A Harmonious Cooperation

The woman responds to Punini’s request to speak with her by spitting on him.

“You have three seconds to get your story straight. If you can’t——”

‘I want to join you-puni!’

The woman looked dubious at Punini, who suddenly asked to be one of them. Punini, deciding that since she was silent, she could continue, spun her words.

‘I don’t want to be used anymore-puni…… I want to be free, too’

“You mean you no longer want to be a Familiar? Then why don’t you just do that?”

‘Yay! Then we’ll take down Kuna together!’

After jumping up and down to get to the enemy’s side, Punini turns around and tells her in a strong tone.

‘Kuna, I’ve had enough of this …… You’re going to die here for what you’ve done-puni!’

“Did you forget ……? If I say a curse word, you will suffer in pain”

‘Auuu……’

When Punini’s mind wavered, Kuna smiled out of the corner of her mouth and told her to come back to her. But after much hesitation, Punini refused with all her might. 𝘧𝔯e𝗲𝙬ℯ𝙗𝓷o𝘷e𝗹.𝐜𝑜𝒎

‘I refuse-puni!! I don’t want to go back to those dayyyyyeagaggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh’

Suddenly she couldn’t make up what to say, because Kuna started to cast a spell.

“Onsam Onran, Ansam Anran, Orar…”

‘OW OW OW OW!!! I’M DYING-PUNI!!!!’

Punini starts jumping all over the place and flailing around weirdly. She starts hitting tree trunks and rolling around in unusual pain.

When the spell stopped, she stopped screaming, as if she had finally been released from her suffering. However, drool dripped from her mouth and her eyes were vacant.

“That’s because you’re trying to get away from me”

‘Fiiiiin …… help me, please kill Kuna quickly-puni!’

The woman to who Punini cried out was confused.

“Err… Even if you ask me…”

“Come on, hurry up and come back here. I’ll give you a special dispensation now”

‘Fugyuu…’

Punini looks up at the woman with tears in her eyes. But she looks away, and when she realizes that she can’t help it, she gives up.

She trudged along, scraping the ground, and then turned around and ran away.

‘I knew it! I don’t like it-puni!!’

“Righto, punishment time! Onsam Onran, Ansam Anran, Orar Peperon!”

‘It hurts, someone help me-punini!!!!’

Punini’s pain is so great that she leaps so high that she overtakes the tip of the trees. Everyone in the area looked up at the sky, but she didn’t fall even after a few seconds.

Finally, she fell with a shout.

‘Secret Technique! Punini’s Stomp!’

To everyone’s surprise, Punini landed on the head of the man who had captured Lunally. The man who was directly hit by Punini fainted with the whites of his eyes.

The momentum sent Punini flying as well, but she hit a tree and managed to come back in front of Lunally.

‘Whew, that was a close one-puni’

“Bastard! What the hell do you think you’re doing?!”

Another man beside him raised his sword and tried to slash Punini, but he was a step too late. Punini was the first to spit a purple mist at the man’s face.

It is a poisonous technique that Punini specializes in, and if you got hit directly, those with low poison resistance will convulse and blow bubbles. That’s what happened to the man who attacked her.

‘Don’t worry, you won’t die-puni’

“Hey, you! You’ve been deceiving us!”

‘There’s no way I’m going to hate Kuna’

In other words, everything that had just happened was an act. The woman clenched her teeth in frustration and stomped hard on the ground, but it was not enough.

She could hear the screams coming from all of her remaining friends. It was Kuna who had done it, and she had struck an arrow precisely in the leg of the enemies.

That they were not just arrows was evident from the petrification of parts of the men’s legs.

“Do you want to hear the secret of the magic bow? Yeah, sure, I’ll tell you”

Kuna easily talks about the mechanism of the magic bow.

The bow is a compound bow made of wood and the bones and horns of demons and monsters, and it excels at direct shooting rather than curved shooting. The bow has an indentation in the handle to hold a magic stone, which allows for special shooting.

Naturally, the magic stones are depleted, but their power is so great that they can cause petrification, as we saw earlier. Arrows with magical power are called demon arrows, and Kuna is adept at using multiple demon arrows.

The parts other than the string were cleaned with a special liquid to increase the conduction of magic power from the magic stone. This also had the effect of preventing the bow from being deformed by absorbing moisture.

Because of the rainy climate, this is a method of care that has been handed down to the elves since ancient times.

“Finished! Thank you for listening to my explanation!”

“Kyaaaah!”

After talking a lot and feeling refreshed, she didn’t forget to properly petrify her legs with arrows. Perhaps it was the damage she had sustained, but the woman returned to her true form. She is a mature woman of about thirty with a few noticeable wrinkles.

As she tied the immobile man and woman with rope, Kuna made a V-sign with her fingers and smiled.

Yay! and of course it was Punini who jumped into Kuna’s chest.

‘That went well, didn’t it?’

“We’ve done it alright~”

The two of them had not had any particular meeting, and the earlier performance had been Punini’s idea. Kuna realized her intentions instantly and went along with it.

Since they have known each other for more than ten years, they can communicate with each other in a heart-to-heart manner.

After making sure she was safe, Kuna removed the cloth from her friend Lunally’s mouth.

“Thanks for saving me, Kunacchi~!”

“We’re friends after all~”

The two teenagers embrace each other passionately. At their feet, Punini also jumps for joy.

“Three days ago, I was suddenly kidnapped and …… kept under their base”

Kuna is determined find out where the enemy is hiding out.

“You’re kidding. You’re going alone, Kuna? At least you’re going back to the village first, aren’t you?”

“Um, please make sure everything goes well with the elders, okay?”

“No, you can’t! Humans are the worst living beings after all. Let’s all work together to fight them”

“But I think I can do it with Punini. So, I’ll ask you to report back!”

‘Please-puniyo!’

Right after Punini said that both of them immediately runs away.

Lunally’s voice to stop her didn’t seem to work, and she showed no signs of stopping.

“Humans are not all bad. That’s what I think”

‘We both know at least one good person, don’t we?’

“Oh, I wonder what senpai doing now. He hasn’t come to see me at all. ……”

‘Maybe he’s busy. Why don’t we try to see him sometime-puni?’

“That’s a great idea!”

Kuna and Punini rush to the enemy’s hideout, determined to see him once this case is solved.
