Magical Forest Adventure 1
The next morning, after Eleven and her group had eaten and drunk their fill, they set off, and the number of people traveling with them increased from two to five.
Last night, Lisanna got to eat barbecue as she wished, but she didn't feel guilty because she got it from her sister, not directly from that big bad Eleven. Humph! Plan worked!
"Eleven, are you sure this is a shortcut?" Cana was studying a map of the Kingdom of Fiore with Eleven, her brows furrowed deeply.
With such a demonic arm, Mira was clearly unable to travel by train. Their only options were to walk along the main road or take countless carriages back to Magnolia.
However, as a skilled Fairy Tail mage, Eleven obviously wouldn't choose the conventional route, so he decided to traverse this dense and eerie primeval forest before him!
"Yes, judging from the direction of the sun, this is the shortest route back, there's no mistake!"
Eleven waved his hand confidently, "I can't even understand this broken map, I'm not looking at it anymore!" He then led a group of clueless children into the dark thicket.
"Oh my god! Run!"
Eleven yelled, grabbed Lisanna, who had the shortest legs, hoisted her onto his shoulder, and ran off.
Lisanna initially wanted to struggle, but when she looked up and saw the sky filled with "bombs," she chose to remain silent, obediently hanging on Eleven's shoulder and letting him carry her away.
Cana, Mira, and even Elfman ran faster than Eleven, already ahead, sprinting and shouting like madmen!
Let's rewind a little...
When Eleven first entered the forest, they were captivated by the scenery around them. Various rare and exotic animals, seldom seen in the outside world, were everywhere here.
Even the squirrels here looked cuter than those in other places, causing the three girls and Elfman in the group to have their girlish hearts flutter and exclaim "Wow!" repeatedly.
Eleven was also marveling at the plants around him as he walked, but he was illiterate and didn't recognize anything, so he could only marvel and join in the fun.
Just then, a gorilla over two meters tall suddenly darted in front of Cana and her friends, who were chasing after a squirrel.
The gorilla monster seemed very happy to see Cana and the others, excitedly pounding its chest with both hands.
Then, it swiftly extended a finger and sent Elfman, who was mingling among the lolis, flying away like a bug in a rice ditch.
He danced and shouted excitedly, "Oh ho ho, oh ho ho, woman, woman, I like her, I want to take her home as my bride! I don't need a man! Oh ho ho~"
This ape monster can actually speak human language, and it's a lecherous, lolicon-loving ape trying to molest a little girl. Eleven hates lolicon monsters the most!
Before the gorilla could continue its antics, a torrent of Telekinesis erupted forth...
This silly gorilla didn't cause Eleven any trouble and was taken down in one move. Elfman, being strong and healthy, wasn't injured either and quickly got up on his own.
However, the group became more cautious as they walked through the forest. As it turned out, this forest not only had cute little creatures, but also potentially a monstrous monster.
However, sometimes, once the style changes, it's too late to salvage the situation, no matter how careful you are.
Not long after they set off again, another ape monster jumped in front of them.
The second gorilla had even more developed pectoral muscles than the first. Upon seeing Eleven and her group, it excitedly patted its shaking pectoral muscles.
Then it raised a finger and pointed it in Eleven's direction, indicating that it also wanted to abduct him...
Bang!! Bang bang~
Eleven didn't even give it a chance to finish speaking before slamming it into the ground! He even pounded it repeatedly until he was completely buried before he was relieved. It was terrifying!
Then a third gorilla appeared, but this time it didn't try to rob anything. Instead, it pulled out a sticky, smelly brown object from behind its back and threw it at Eleven and the others.
Fortunately, Eleven reacted quickly enough that none of them were hit. The object slammed into a tree trunk, leaving a large, bowl-shaped crater in the thick trunk.
Eleven was furious; these freakish gorillas really could keep pushing the boundaries of decency!
However, this flying bomb seems to have become a signal to start some kind of war.
More and more ape-like monsters appeared before them, and without saying a word, they began throwing indescribable things at them.
At first Eleven and Cana could manage, but as the number of gorilla monsters increased and the number of projectiles from the air also increased, the group finally started to panic!
The key point is that these gorillas never get close; instead, they line up in formation and hang at a distance, even coordinating their throws perfectly. This Eleven with no time to deal with them.
Until later, the gorillas launched a volley of fire...
The sky was filled with "flying cannonballs" raining down like raindrops, making a series of "plop plop" sounds.
"Oh my god! Run!"
Eleven finally felt he couldn't hold on any longer, so he hoisted Lisanna onto his shoulder and turned to run. The others ran even faster Eleven, disregarding their camaraderie, as if this was worse than death.
For a moment, the forest echoed with Cana and her friends' screams, as well as the gorillas' howls of "Oh ho ho!"
The once tranquil and magical primeval forest suddenly changed its atmosphere.
After an unknown amount of time, a brownish-black, steaming, semi-circular object slowly moved out from behind a small mound.
After confirming that the surroundings were finally safe, Eleven carefully removed the semi-circular Telekinesis Barrier above their heads.
The moment he withdrew his Telekinesis, Eleven gagged; he felt his soul had been tainted! Telekinesis was no different to him than his hands and feet; just thinking about catching countless... ugh~
I have truly given so much to this team...
/(ㄒoㄒ)/~~
Cana patted Eleven's back tenderly as he continued to vomit, helping him catch his breath. Mira and the others also looked at him with gratitude; without Eleven's self-sacrifice, it was unimaginable how terrible the scene would have been.
Looking around, they suddenly realized that the sky had already darkened. The group all looked exhausted, not just physically, but also emotionally, and in greater need of healing.
Eleven was still walking unsteadily. He kept reassuring himself that he had learned another weakness today, and that he could be mentally prepared for encountering such disgusting enemies in the future. This was a good thing.
Suddenly, his legs went weak, Eleven, whose steps were unsteady, didn't know what he had stepped on, and almost tripped over it.
Puff!
The thing that Eleven stepped on suddenly exploded, spewing out a large cloud of dust.
"Holy crap! What is that now?!"
Startled like a frightened deer, Eleven leaped back, looking over in terror, fearing that something foul might fly towards him again.
