Chapter 181 – Momiji Spiral, Clear

“Tаkе thаааt! Inferno Flamе! Summоn a giant аrm and swat thоsе fliеs!”

Uguwаа!! Uguwаa!! Uguwaа!! Uguwaa!! Uguwаа!! Uguwaа!! Uguwаа!! Uguwаа!!

While Littlе Ira wаs pummeling thе hоrdе оf Orcs…

“Sо, yоu’re from a bаkеry, right? Do you hаvе any recommеndеd bread? Like, what’s the mоst рromotеd breаd аt Littlе Мomiji’s house right now?”

Littlе Momiji bеаmеd as if to sау, ‘I’m sо glad yоu asked!’

It turns оut, she’s a Streamеr whо is almost соmplеtely оpen abоut her rеаl identity, with her family’s bаkerу bеing рublic knоwledge.

It’s bееn сonfirmed shе’s genuinеlу а реtite high sсhооl girl, and hеr Listеner customers have formed an alliance, all vowing to protect Little Momiji…!

The Listener Rear Guard!

“It’s quiche!! Um, you see, the fillings we put on top change all the time at our shop! The secret to the fun is the variety of flavors!!”

“Whoa!! So what’s on it now?”

“Bacon stew quiche!!”

“That sounds delicious!!”

※『Looks tasty!!』『Whoa, I gotta make a pilgrimage』『But it sells out by noon, right?』『Well, if fans from all over the country make pilgrimages…』『I hear they have a policy against opening chain stores』『A bakery with dedication~』

“Ah, but our bread is going to be released in a Collab with the major Kawasaki Bread company soon! Please look forward to Momiji’s special savory bread!!”

“Wha, what did you say?!”

※『Wha, what did you say?!』『We’re blessed!』『Gotta dash to every convenience store nationwide!!』

The Meat Brigade sure is quick to flirt when there’s another cute girl around, huh?

Well, they’re a bunch who love carefully selected Sensitive content, so I guess it can’t be helped!

We’ll just keep using cuteness as an incentive to keep them following along.

“Heyyy, we’re done here, wanna move on? Or just chill here for a bit?”

“Chilling sounds nice too. Right now, we were talking about how Little Momiji’s family bread is doing a Collab with Kawasaki Bread.”

“What’s that? A Sponsored Stream?”

“Mr. Ira, please come eat bread at our shop too!”

“Oh, the tasty kind? Everything’s tasty, I bet. I’ll go, I’ll go.”

※『Ahh~, the Momiji Spiral is just too cute~』『What a heartwarming sight』『The Dungeon’s turned into a chat room』『Just the text alone is overwhelmingly cute lol』Rump『Little Spice’s linguistic sense is exploding』Maruchou『Well, there are Streamers who eat bento in Dungeons, so turning it into a chat room should be safe…』

That’s right, that’s right, there’s nothing strange about it at all.

And so, to enjoy some fun chatter, we fought, then rested, rested, then fought, repeating the cycle…

The time-wasting has reached its limit!

Right now, the Dungeon Boss is right before our eyes!

“Ephemeral.”

“Little Spice, that’s too fast. We haven’t even fought it yet, and you’re already calling the boss ephemeral.”

“But my senior often says Dungeons are ephemeral too, you know. I feel like I’m starting to understand that more and more.”

“Right?! We gotta go find Dungeons stronger than Spice and the others!”

“Isn’t that, like, the ultimate high-difficulty Dungeon that’s impossible for anyone else to clear?”

Chattering away with wah-wah, kyaa-kyaa, the battle begins!

This Dungeon’s boss is a human-shaped stain on a wall so large you have to look up.

From that stain, an incredibly huge Grudge Spirit emerges as if floating out.

It’s Demonized.

Mogaaaaaaa!!

“Whoa, a boss that reminds me it’s been a while since I’ve seen a Dungeon that’s a haunted property that transforms! There’ve been a lot of curveballs lately.”

“Curveballs are harder to clear, after all.”

“Is that so? I might not really get it.”

“That’s ’cause Little Momiji is top-tier!”

To begin with, all three people here are top-of-the-top-tier Streamers with over 500,000 Subscribers each—heck, they’re almost at a million!

There are all sorts of mysteries surrounding these Subscriber Counts.

Like, with Japan’s population supposedly only around 125 million, this number is weird.

Even including overseas people, it’s still weird.

Sometimes there are clearly comments from people not of this world.

Maybe it’s connected to an Otherworld, and people from there are subscribing.

All sorts of things are said.

Mogaa!!

“Little Spice, hate to interrupt your analysis, but—this Grudge Spirit is pretty large-scale, so if you could land one big hit, it’d be a huge help.”

“Okay! Meat Brigade, Incantation~!!”

※『Stir up the storm!』『Striking pressure!』『Scatter thy mind and spirit!』Fish『Summons from the water’s depths!』Rump『Seventh Step!』Maruchou『Coming from dreams!』Prime Sirloin『Power, be mine!』

“Stick these on like stickers… Striking pressure, coming from dreams, power, be mine! Oh, a new Mental Magic is here! Hard Shock!”

A shockwave so intense it was visible shook the air as it slammed into the Grudge Spirit.

Uguwaa!!

The Grudge Spirit suffered a mental Shock, its whole body convulsing with a biri-biri-birii as it recoiled.

Its movements have completely stopped!

This is strong.

“Hyah! Stab the scythe in and inject flame! Lock it down!”

Little Ira’s great scythe roared, and from where it tore into the Grudge Spirit, black flames swirled up with a buwaa.

They wound around and bound the giant Grudge Spirit.

Uguwaa!!

“Alright, Little Momiji, finish it!”

Responding to Little Ira’s words, Little Momiji stepped forward with a “Okay!”

“Combine this and this and this… Bacon stew quiche, complete!!”

An upside-down quiche appeared above the Grudge Spirit’s head.

It was even bigger than the giant Grudge Spirit!!

It came crashing down with a doshin, swallowing the Grudge Spirit into the stew.

Uguwaa!! De, Delicious!!

Screaming something, the Grudge Spirit vanished.

“Whew, that was a big Finishing Move and a new product promotion all in one.”

『This one is also most pleased to have been able to showcase a new Magic. Or rather, that was completely new Magic. Original to our master, it was.』

“Seriously? We witnessed the moment a new Magic was born!”

The Comment Section erupted with excitement.

※『Congrats, Little Spice!』『The Momiji Spiral is a Finishing Move too!』『I see, three Magical Girls』『The Grudge Spirit’s death throes were a perfect 100 points too!』

They have high expectations!

By the way, Shock Magic is Elementary, so most Witches probably skip this part and move ahead.

It’s pretty much only Spice who obsessively rubs Shock and Drunk together like this.

And so, the Elementary Magic Shock evolved into Intermediate or Higher Magic.

This Collab was a gain for Spice too!

“Well then, seems the Dungeon’s over, so shall we wrap it up?”

“Oooh! Good work, everyone~”

“Good work! So, shall we both do the post-Collab greeting together with me?”

“Let’s do it, let’s do it.”

“Sounds good.”

“Today~”

“「「Bye-teen!」」”

Collab over!

The Momiji Spiral splendidly rode the Tsubuyakix Trending wave.

Let’s Collab again sometime.
