Chapter 34: Chapter 34:
In the deep forest, the habitat of the monster Wind Chime Bird, which was in a silent state, suddenly erupted with a miserable scream!
"Ah ah ah ah ah !!"
and in the next moment,
"Boom!!"
Along with a thunderous roar like a mountain collapse and earth-shattering, the king of the Wind Chime Bird tribe, also known as the Bird King, was suddenly hit by a beam of crimson light!
Its imposing ultimate move was abruptly shattered by the red light! At the same time, the invincible light pierced through the Bird King's wings after shattering its protective magic, causing the giant bird monster with a wingspan of tens of meters to plummet from the sky and crash into a pile of rocks.
After a moment,
The huge rocks exploded and the Bird King, who was buried underneath, crawled out in a sorry state with blood flowing from its head.
Although the Bird King suffered such a humiliating defeat in front of its people, it had no thought of revenge in its heart.
Instead, it felt endless fear and trembling from deep within its soul as it looked at the black-haired girl who had just snapped her fingers to knock it down.
Meeting the girl's scarlet eyes and feeling the familiar yet oppressive power of Shadow that emanated from her body, the Bird King abandoned its dignity as the king of the tribe and scrambled like a puppy to crawl to the girl's feet.
Its eyes had lost all fighting spirit and were filled with flattery.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!! Lady Yumo!! I didn't know you had already turned into a human form?! I thought it was some adventurer with no eyes who entered my territory just now! I'm very sorry, very sorry!! Please spare me!! I have old and young to take care of..."
Facing the Bird King's plea for mercy, Yumo couldn't help but roll her eyes, and her tone remained cold.
"Didn't I tell you before? If you see someone with a human form, don't randomly attack, you little brat bird. Did you forget my words?"
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!! I won't dare to do it again!!"
"Hehe, if there's a next time, I'll find a new king for your Wind Chime tribe," Yumo said leisurely.
However, her words contained an extremely powerful Shadow force, which directly suppressed the Bird King, making it unable to move. After hearing Yumo's warning, the Bird King quickly nodded.
"No, no! There won't be a next time!"
"That's better."
Yumo's increasingly "gentle" smile disappeared as she restrained herself, lifting the oppressive force of the Shadow of Solitude from the Bird King and the rest of the Wind Chime Birds.
In an instant, the monster breathed a sigh of relief and lay down, relieved of their burden.
After narrowly escaping death, the Bird King quickly got up and snuggled up to Yumo, eager to please her.
"Yumo-sama, my lady? What brings you to our humble place?"
"I have something to discuss with you," Yumo chose to get straight to the point.
"Me?"
"Yes, since I've taken human form, I can't just sleep rough in the wild anymore."
"Um? Are you saying that you need our help to build a house?"
"No, the house is already built."
"Um? It's already built? Then what do we need to do?"
"I'm missing a bed. I want one that's comfortable and soft,"
Yumo said, her dangerous gaze locking onto the Bird King's large, pristine white feathers.
He suddenly felt a sense of dread, as if he knew what was coming.
"And, I think your feathers are pretty nice~"
Yumo cracked a sinister smile.
...
...
A few minutes later, the once handsome Bird King was stripped of all his feathers by Yumo in front of a large crowd. He looked like a bald chicken and was particularly comical and embarrassed.
The surrounding Wind Chime Birds couldn't help but stifle their laughter.
The seventh-stage Chime Bird king's dignity had been completely lost at this point.
The Bird King clenched his claws tightly and his eyes were full of anger and humiliation.
But what could he do?
To survive in the frigid forest, he had to submit to the Abyssal Demon and follow the orders of the Demon Temple.
Otherwise, his entire tribe would become a meal for the Abyssal Demon.
All he could do was suppress his anger and watch the black-haired girl slowly walk away, carrying his feathers.
'I'll get revenge on that girl someday!'
The Bird King stared fiercely at Yumo's back as she left.
However, at that moment, he did not know that even though the girl had her back turned to him and was already far away, she could still feel the enmity and hatred in his gaze.
Fortunately, Yumo did not have the same mindset.
Or rather,
Making the Wind Chime Bird clan bear a great hostility toward her was the purpose of Yumo's words.
Otherwise, she wouldn't bother to send a few Abyssal Demons to pressure the Wind Chime Bird clan from time to time.
At the end of the trial, the protagonist's group needed to lead the army into the Winter Forest.
To ensure everything went smoothly, Yumo believed it was necessary to arrange an "inside man" for the protagonist's group.
Of course, an Abyssal Demon couldn't do this, so it had to be a group of persecuted demon beasts within the forest.
These monsters not only detested Abyssal Demons but also knew about their habits and the general location of the Demon Temple.
They could lead the protagonist's group with legitimacy.
"Hehe~"
By then, it should be much easier to eliminate herself, right?
Thinking of this, Yumo couldn't help but show a satisfied smile as the blood butterflies around her danced with joy.
Oh well,
'Sometimes, I really admire my own ingenuity.'
After a slight sigh, Yumo once again focused her attention on the large pile of feathers in her hand that had been compressed.
Although she could cause trouble in the Wind Chime Bird tribe territory this time, she really needed these feathers, and she needed this many!
In the past, when I hadn't taken on a human form, Limo, Liyu, and the other girls rested inside my body,
"..."
inside the Temple.
Now that she had taken on human form, she needed to equip them with a new residence. She didn't like the idea of the children sleeping out in the open.
With Sebastian's help, she had already built a countryside villa.
Then, Yumo needed these feathers to make bedding for them~
Although Liyu and the others always insisted on sleeping with her,
considering their independence,
Yumo still planned to get each of them a comfortable bed! Not just Limo and Liyu, but also the children who were temporarily outside the forest~
When they come back, they should have a place to sleep, right?
She couldn't have them all squeezed in with her, could she?
"So,"
Yumo strolled through the forest as if taking a leisurely walk, enjoying the snowy scenery while pondering the room allocation in the new house.
And at this moment,
Yumo suddenly stopped in her tracks, her eyebrows slightly furrowed,
the girl turned her head towards the south of the forest, relying on her extraordinary perception, Yumo detected some special aura.
Huh?
"Has someone come into the forest again?"
...
