Chapter 135 – Suppression! Stampede!

“W-wait, seniоr! Shоuldn’t wе stор this…?!”

“That’s an орtion, but if nobоdy stoрs thе Stаmреdе, the neаrby residеnts will bе in troublе!”

Sрiсе turns bаck tо faсe the strеаm sсrеen and dеclаres!

“Changе оf plans! From herе оn, we’re suppressing thе Stаmpede!”

“Woo!”

Мs. Мarie еnergеtiсаllу echoes.

Shе’s fired up!

Shirоkо sеems a bit sсаrеd, but oncе she reаdied LARF, she seеmеd to havе stеelеd her resоlve.

“Whoa! Wе’ve gоttа do it!!”

“Let’s do it, Little Shirokо!”

“Yes!”

Тhе twо housеwife streаmеrs stаnd side by sidе.

In Mаriе’s hаnd is а rаpiеr.

In Shirоkо’s hand is LАRF.

Nоte: the rapier’s blade is also rubber, so it’s safe.

It’s through concurrent viewers that it unleashes power indistinguishable from a real blade.

“Well then, allow this humble Spice to lead the charge…! Stampede suppression operation, begin~!! Oh, Spice will follow from behind, so don’t push yourselves too hard!”

“It’s fine, it’s fine! I’m always watching that person’s streams! Let’s go!!”

※『That person…!?』『Ms. Marie, could she be a married woman…!!』『A married woman setting from the moment of debut is new』『I like it~』

The Meat Brigade really accepts anything.

Bathed in such cheers, Marie…

Seeing the overflowing monsters, she lowered her stance for an instant, then…

Vanished.

No, she shot forward at incredible speed!

About three Goblins got skewered together, letting out final screams of “Ugwaaah!?” before turning to light.

Thrusting weapons are hard to pull out once stabbed, but if you finish them in one hit, there’s no problem.

And her thrust was too fast even for Spice to see!

Marie was like white lightning.

Zigzagging across the battlefield, taking down monsters one after another.

※『Whooooooa』『So strong!!』Maruchou『As expected of a former Labyrinth Conqueror! Wearing an Avatar and having the physical ability of her Prime makes her this strong!』

Really!

Avatars are mysterious technology; they don’t just change appearance.

They also alter the abilities of the person wearing them.

Though, well, the boost can’t exceed the person’s own power by too much.

But it can restore a strong person’s body to its Prime.

If they were originally strong, they become even stronger!

“Ahh, I’m falling behind!”

Shiroko also hurriedly starts running after her.

In her case, physically she’s an ordinary person, but…

Since she did the pentathlon, her physical abilities have returned to her athletic Prime.

Leaping over Goblins, several LARF bullets hit an Ogre coming from ahead.

Though, well, cycling, fencing, and swimming are kinda dead right now…!

We’ll want to strengthen those eventually.

Right now, she’s fighting utilizing shooting and running.

Just being an experienced athlete makes her way stronger.

‘Ugwaaah!’

As the Ogre staggers from taking several Sponge Bullets, Marie dashes in and skewers its head with her rapier!

The Ogre vanishes.

Nice~!

“Um! I-I’m starting to get tired…!”

“Ah, Ms. Marie is getting winded.”

※『So she’s a sprinter-type streamer』『Her black hair sticking to her forehead with sweat is very alluring』『She has a gap in her training, it can’t be helped』

While Marie catches her breath, Shiroko uses LARF to keep the surrounding area in check.

Yeah yeah, her finishing power is on the lower side, but Shiroko’s strength lies in stamina and shooting accuracy.

She can keep running while performing precise suppressing fire.

But, a Stampede means monsters keep pouring out of the Dungeon one after another.

Even if Marie recovers, it looks like it’ll be tough to finish them all off.

“Alright then, Spice will step in!! Whoa, Metamorphose! Area suppression, gooo!”

‘Mmmme me me me me! Sinterrr!’

An orange radiance envelops Spice.

Ignite Spice makes his appearance!

“Borrowing Flota’s power, float up lightly~”

‘I don’t really want to lend my power when it’s not my own mode! But since it’s Master, I’ll make an exception!’

Grimoires have a pretty strong sense of territory, after all.

“From the air… Explosive Fireball barrage! Oryaryaryaryaryaa!”

With concurrent viewers, Magic Power is essentially supplied limitlessly.

Turning all of it into volleys of Explosive Fireballs, raining them down on the ground!

Monsters bursting from the Dungeon entrance get caught in the explosions one after another, vanishing with “Ugwaaah!!”

For weaker monsters, this is plenty!

The target Dungeon is also on the smaller side, so nothing too strong comes out.

“Eeek!”

“That’s brutally efficient!”

In front of a dumbfounded Marie and Shiroko, Spice wiped out the monsters overflowing from the Stampede.

If this were a medium-scale one, I’d have to get a bit more creative with the Magic.

He lands on the ground with a thud.

“Good work! Streamers really are amazing. Even from my perspective, you’re on a far higher plane!”

“Yeah yeah. Senior has mastered Magic Arts. You’re reliable!”

“Nah, thanks, thanks! But, something’s bothering me. For a Stampede to happen suddenly without any warning…”

Stampedes are phenomena that occur when Dungeons left unattended for too long proliferate monsters inside until they can no longer be contained.

Monsters naturally spawn inside Dungeons.

When their numbers increase beyond containment capacity, a Stampede occurs.

This Dungeon was supposed to be relatively new, though…

“Maybe from now on, Stampedes like this will start happening all over! I have a feeling something’s moving behind the scenes…!”

This feels like a premonition that Dungeons will become even more dangerous for a while.
