Chapter 189-4
[Part 4/4]
Two out of the 3 arrows pierced through the monster's wide-open mouth. The octopus head shakes, letting out a bizarre scream. But Kaya's arrows had a deadly tip. Even if the arrows broke, the tips dug even deeper into the flesh. Plus, they were coated with poison.
"Ahaha... but, it doesn't seem very effective?"
It's the poison from Juuyaku's house. It might have been their pride and joy, a deadly poison. But seeing the monster thrash around with almost no effect made Kaya smile wryly. Still, she keeps shooting, and when her arrows run out, she pulls out her machete and gets ready.
'Gah!!'
Meanwhile, the octopus youkai uses its soft body to slip through the iron door. It leans forward, growling, and charges at Kaya. ...And then its legs get cut off, and it slams its face into the floor.
"Serves you right!!"
I was trying to distract myself by setting up a tripwire with Teguruma, but the octopus-like creature was quick to notice and tried to attack with its severed legs. The neatly severed legs thrashed around, not understanding what had happened. The main body seemed confused as well, spewing out blue liquid. It desperately tried to stand up using the legs around its mouth.
"Hana!"
