Chapter 128.2


    Heading Towards The University


    Arriving at the university''s main gate, I tried to enter on my motorcycle, but a security guard rushed out and blocked my way in a panic.


    "Hey, hey! What do you think you''re doing?"


    If you''re a hero, you''d smoothly dash through situations like this, but reality doesn''t always work that way.


    "It''s an emergency. Monsters areing out of the dungeon! Why isn''t the gate closed?"


    "Huh? Well, I can''t just close it on my own, can I?"


    "Fool! If monsters flood to the university because of that, what''s your n?"


    If danger is looming over cute Ruu and the others, I can''t just retreat here. Ignoring the peace-loving security guard in this crisis, I''ll take the liberty to close the main gate myself.


    "What are you doing on your own!"


    "Just do your job as a security guard! If you can''t make decisions, ask for instructions from above!"


    In that regard, otaku can be said to watch anime in various situations every day, constantly engaging in different mental simtions. Therefore, their adaptability and resistance in emergencies should be quite high.


    "W-Well, you''re the most suspicious oneing out of nowhere and saying nonsense!"


    "Ugh, fair enough."


    I mounted my bike again and headed into the campus as if escaping.


    "But this university is huge. Where are Ruka and the others?"


    Even trying to contact them through themunication device, the line was jammed and wouldn''t connect. So, resorting to a reckless biker move, revving the engine unnecessarily, I attempted to get Ruka and the others'' attention.


    After a while, I spotted Ruu and the others waving from a window.


    "There they are! They''re on the 3rd floor. Alright, I''ming. Hiyah!!"


    [Vroom!]


    "Ahh!"


    "Is everyone okay?"


    "Not exactly I was about to get seriously injured just now!"


    "Ugh, sorry"


    Ugh, scolded by Serai-san within two seconds of meeting her. It was my first time making such a leap, so I couldn''t gauge it properly and ended up smashing the ss.


    "I appreciate your concern but you''re drawing attention, you know? Jumping 3 floors like that, is that okay?"


    "W-Well"


    "Coach, are you okay? We were worried about you!"


    "Thanks, Ruu. I''m fine. It seems everyone is safe. On the way here, monsters were appearing all over the ground. So, I hurried here out of concern."


    "By the way, Ezki-san! Shark just called me a while ago, and it seems monsters are appearing near Shark''s school! So, it might be better to go there and help!"


    "What, is that true?"


    "Yeah, the call was about 5 minutes ago. But it got cut off, and Shark seemed to be running or something"


    "Hmm"


    "Coach, please go to Shark''s ce!"


    "Yeah, we have 3 people here, and we''ve trained in dungeons. We should be able to escape without fighting if attacked."


    "Hmm"


    It''s very perplexing. If I leave here and monsters appear, considering that. But if Shark is in danger while I''m hesitating like this


    "Alright! I''ll head to Shark''s ce. But before that, I''ll leave weapons and guards."


    "Guards?"


    Weapons aside, Ruka and the others tilted their heads at the word "guards."


    "Anyway, stay still and don''t move. Spirits of salt, grant your protection to them too with the blessing of salt!!"


    [Kyawawa~!]


    By increasing magical power and chanting, grains of sacred salt created by the skill [Salt] covered their bodies, bing chest protectors, gauntlets, and greaves.


    "Huh? Is this armor??"


    "Whoooa!?"


    "Ruu, stay still a bit more; it''s dangerous if you move."


    "Wow, what''s this? It''s so glossy and sparkling, beautiful!"


    "This is a Saint Cross made of sacred salt crystals. This will surely protect you all. And Excalibur,e forth, Pixie Queen!"


    [Kyawa~!]


    When I raised the rainbow-colored metal te, Pixie Queen appeared with dazzling effects like a rare gacha scene.


    ". (Sun)"


    Yeah, as always, she''s beautifully bashful.


    "Huh, who''s this kid?! Why is she floating and so small??"


    Serai-san yed fantasy MMOs, so she should understand Pixies at least.


    "Ah, this one is also so beautiful. Could she be the Spirit of Salt?"


    See, Nina-san understands quickly. But no, she''s not the Spirit of Salt.


    "She is the Queen of Pixies. I call her Pixie Queen. With her as a guard, huh? How about adding 2 more fighters? OK,e forth, Pixies!"


    Upon Pixie Queen''s request, two more Pixies were added.


    "Yes, Ruu, take this. Use honey to keep them in a good mood."


    "Oh! So you bought honey the other day for them!"


    "Well, that''s the idea. I was nning to introduce them to everyone at the right time, but it seems it''s sudden. Treat them well, everyone."


    While I''m exining, Serai-san and the others are happily fascinated by the cuteness of the Pixies. Looks like it''s going well.


    "Now, I''m going to Shark''s rescue from here! Be careful, everyone."


    "Yes! Good luck, Ezuki-san!"


    "Take care."


    "Coach, please take care of Shark-chan!"


    Alright, next is Shark''s high school. Somehow, today is turning out to be very busy.
