29 – Bread Bag Monster

A military base right next to the city of Darfs.

Although it is a tourist city, a large naval base has been built on one side of Darfs because it is suitable as a military strategic point in case of a naval battle.

Well, in reality, there haven’t been many naval battles since the invasion of the Demon King’s army, and it hasn’t performed its function properly for over a decade.

Is that why?

The soldiers deployed to Darfs had many ‘parachutes’, as they are commonly called.

To put it simply, it was like a place where people were sent to make military life easier.

If you take off your military uniform, leave the military base, and move a short distance, you will reach the tourist destination Darfs.

“…Hmm, the sun has already set.”

“Why on earth are you doing something so useless as coast guarding? There’s no need for anyone to invade.”

“So, shall we go and go to Darfs?”

“That’s good, actually, I saw a store with a lot of pretty girls…”

The place where this mess takes place is the Darfs Naval Base.

Even the commander-in-chief of the base has reached a level of semi-connivance, perhaps because he has been left in this atmosphere for so long.

There was a reason why they would abandon their military duties and go out to play.

“Huh? What is that?”

“What’s wrong? Let’s go out and have fun.”

“No, I think something moved in the sea…”

“Isn’t it a fish?”

As expected of someone assigned to coast guard duty with a keen eye, he kept his eyes straight on the sea.

“…It’s big for a fish? Is it a dolphin?”

“Let’s take a look…”

Dark sea.

Soldiers who take out magic tools that emit bright light and illuminate the sea surface.

The moment they discovered something on the surface of the sea, it instantly popped out from under the sea.

“Ugh…Ugh!?”

“What…What…??”

The thing that instantly grabbed the soldier and dragged him into the sea was a beautiful female demon with a lower body like a fish.

The so-called Mermaids disappeared, taking the soldiers they had captured with them.

After a while, several boats began to quietly gather on the beach where they had disappeared.

“There is no enemy reaction in the vicinity.”

“…Is this really the end with two security guards? It’s going to end more bitterly than I thought.”

One of Ruri’s subordinates, a high-ranking succubus, spoke in a dumbfounded voice after hearing the words of the vampire in charge of scouting.

Even though I entered with caution in mind just in case, I was embarrassed to find that the alert posture was really weak.

“Power on standby, we’ll rush in as soon as we get a signal from inside the base. Understood?”

“Yes.”

“Hey, Alice. Isn’t it a waste to go around with a frown on your pretty face again today?”

“…Colonel Jackson, this is s*xual harassment. Please remove your hands.”

“Oh my, it’s still expensive.”

Inside the naval base, a situation that was hard to describe was taking place: a boss harassing a pretty female soldier subordinate.

In that situation, another female soldier approached.

They were one of only a few female soldiers in this naval unit.

Female soldiers whispering to each other.

Then, Warrant Officer Alice, a female soldier who had frowned at her superior’s s*xual harassment until just now, opened her eyes wide.

“Colonel Jackson, something big has happened!”

“Huh? What’s going on? Why is it suddenly so loud?”

“It’s an attack! The base is under attack!”

Major Jackson, who sensed that this was not an ordinary incident at Warrant Officer Alice’s seemingly urgent words, stood up immediately.

This base being attacked was something that hadn’t happened in over ten years.

“Damn it, summon the officers right now! What kind of guys attacked them?”

“Yes…That is…”

Warrant Officer Alice stands up and approaches Colonel Jackson.

She took something out of her arms and…

“We attacked, right?”

“…What?”

Seeing the light flash before his eyes, Colonel Jackson lost consciousness.

“…Suppress the officers like this. Then send a signal to those waiting outside and Ruri.”

“I understand, Alice.”

Warrant Officer Alice. No, Succubus Alice restrained the unconscious Colonel Jackson and left the scene.

The main gate of the naval base.

As it is the main gate, there are several guards stationed on guard.

Well, even so, the heinous atmosphere that spreads throughout the base is having a great influence on them as well.

As these are people who have at least visible work, they are also people who find it difficult to give up work and go out to play.

Pow

“…What is that?”

“I don’t know what kind of bastard you are, but are you causing trouble by setting off fireworks at a military base?”

“If you’re going to explode, let’s explode some more. What’s the point of just exploding one?”

At the small fireworks exploding in the sky above the base, the guards looked up.

As they are always hungry for entertainment, it feels like the vector of dissatisfaction is elsewhere.

However, they had to immediately take their eyes off the sky.

“Hey, wait! Look over there!!”

“What is that…??”

“Is it a monster? But on this island…?”

A shadow suddenly runs straight ahead.

It was so fast that at first I thought it was an animal or a monster.

But as it came closer, I could see that it was a person.

“What…What is it?”

“Stop!! Hmm…Stop!!”

However, it had a very bizarre appearance.

He is small and seems a bit thin.

Looking at the clothes she is wearing, she is probably a woman.

But the strangest thing of all is the paper bag worn on his head.

Commonly called a bread bag, it was a bag made of cheap paper that was given when you bought bread.

It runs towards you with its blue eyes flashing from its covered head.

In his hand, he was holding a huge ax… No, a halberd.

“Hi!?”

At that bizarre appearance, the soldiers drew their weapons.

But before they could draw their weapons and respond, the halberd wielded by the approaching monster struck the soldier in front.

“No!?”

A soldier was hit by a bladeless part, but still fell with a huge impact.

He crashed into the outer wall of the base and lost consciousness.

“What…What power…”

“It’s a monster… hehehe!?”

“It’s an attack!! Base! Put your legs up quickly! Block the entrance!!”

“Control room! What are you doing? Hurry up and put your legs up!! Kwaaah!?”

Still, as guards, the soldiers are worried about the base and fly away with halberds.

Even though they risked their lives to announce the attack, the drawbridge placed at the main gate of the base did not go up.

In the first place, they did not know that all the soldiers working in the control room to raise the drawbridge had already been suppressed.

By none other than a soldier inside the control room, a female soldier named Sergeant Marina.

“Oh, you’re going wild?”

Succubus Marina’s mission is to suppress the control room that controls the drawbridge for the troops entering the main gate when the attack begins.

The drawbridge itself was so complicated that once it went up, it could not be taken down for about an hour.

Therefore, it was necessary to quickly subdue the control room before anyone could raise it.

“But who is that? I don’t think they are our compatriots…? Are they reinforcements sent by the Demon King?”

I heard that the Demon King would send reinforcements for this operation.

But that unit would have been a vampire unit.

Was there anyone like that among the vampires?

What on earth is that bread bag?

In an instant, Marina abandoned that thought after seeing the monster wearing a bread bag overpower her front door, followed by the succubus and vampires entering the base.

How about it? As long as it’s on our side, that’s fine.

“It’s an attack!! Everyone deal with it!!”

“They are demons! From succubi to vampires…!! Quickly inform Colonel Jackson!!”

“No! I can’t contact you!! Except for the colonel, I don’t have any news from all the other officers!!”

In an instant, the inside of the base was engulfed in chaos.

As the unit was already stationed in a peaceful place, not all of them were able to respond properly to the sudden raid.

In addition, the officers were suppressed by the succubi who had already infiltrated the base, and the command system was paralyzed.

Due to the lazy working environment, half of the workers were not even able to properly raise their weapons and were suppressed.

But above all.

“hahahahaha!! This is this!! It’s a fight where you kill and die equally, whether you’re strong or weak!!”

“Hey!?”

“A monster… A monster!!”

Many of her soldiers were hit by the halberd she was wielding, the bread bag monster.

What’s even more scary is that even though they are so recklessly swung and blown away, the death toll is approaching zero.

… Well, instead, they crushed her limbs in one or two places, causing everyone to groan in pain.

“Now! Those who have courage, attack!! Those who don’t have courage, run away!! I’ll blow everyone away equally!!”

“aaah…!!”

“Run…Run away!! If you go to the port on the coast, the ship…”

Monsters and demons invaded the front door.

Some people tried to avoid them and eventually went to the coast and escaped by boat.

But they couldn’t run away either.

“What…What!?”

“Well…There are demons on the other side too!!”

“Damn…Damn!!”

The soldiers did not know that the coastal port of the base had already been suppressed for a long time.

In the end, they panicked because they could not escape anywhere.

Their reactions were different.

Those who fall into panic and sit down and cry.

These people draw their weapons and rush in with a feeling of desperation.

Nevertheless, these people burrow into the demons in an attempt to escape.

Well, no matter who they were, they ended up being equally suppressed by the demons.

And most of them ended up having one or two of their limbs shattered by the halberd of the bread bag monster.

“Wow…”

Ruri, who was watching that scene from behind, was speechless.

A girl brought in by a warrior who went to run errands during the day.

The girl asked me to call her Zek Rune, and I was surprised when she said she wanted to join me in raiding the base…

Bam!!

She was thinking that it was a good idea to bring her.

Thanks to her, the suppression of the base, which she thought would take some time, seemed to be completed more quickly.

“Oh my.”

Sometimes, while lightly suppressing the soldiers who charged in to avoid Zikrune, Ruri thought again.

They say that the companion of a monster (hero) is a monster.

And one more thing.

No matter how much it was done to hide his identity, how could that bread bag really work?

Honestly, it’s a bit bizarre. Huh.
