Takasugi-kun VS Horned Rabbit


We passed through the dungeon gate and walked along the single path on the grassy plains of the first basement level.

As usual, the clanking sound of Kudo’s armor was loud.

I carried an axe on my right shoulder as I walked.

I couldn’t let my guard down even for a moment.

If I did, the weight of the axe would make me stagger.

But that would only last until today.

I would hunt, hunt, and hunt the horned rabbits, level up, and have no problem at all!

After crossing the reddish-brown earth of the second basement, we finally reached the third basement level.

I checked the dungeon map and found three open spots far from the lake.

However, two of those places were already occupied by other parties hunting horned rabbits.

So, we headed to the remaining spot.

Actually, this was the spot I originally aimed for.

Because it was the closest place from the third floor entrance.

Kudo and I both had heavy equipment, so we didn’t want to walk much.

We were lucky to secure the desired spot!

Also, today, I saw Nakamori-san outside of school.

Was this a lucky day?

Yeah.

It must be.

I decided to start hunting the horned rabbits.

Our plan was: Kudo would hit his shield with his right hand to draw the horned rabbits’ attention.

Then he would provoke them.

The horned rabbits would rush at Kudo, jump, and attack him with the horns on their heads.

But Kudo’s defense was ironclad, so the horns would be repelled by his shield or armor.

That’s when I would strike with my axe!

Yeah.

A perfect plan.

I wanted to praise myself.

“Kudo! Provoke the horned rabbits as planned!” I said.

Kudo replied, “Got it!” and started banging his shield.

As planned, the horned rabbits began to gather around.

Good! Hurry and attack Kudo! I watched Kudo excitedly.

The horned rabbits all pounced at once.

Ouch! A sharp pain struck my left buttock.

I panicked and looked back, and a horn was stuck in my left buttock.

The horned rabbit was thrashing around with its horn stuck in my butt.

Ouch… Don’t thrash! I put my heavy axe on the ground, grabbed the horn with my left hand, and pulled it out.

The horned rabbit struggled violently, making my grip slip, and it escaped.

Damn it!

I didn’t expect the rabbits near Kudo to attack me as well.

I asked Kudo to pour potion on my butt, but the rabbits stubbornly kept attacking without leaving.

I instructed Kudo, “Turn your big shield sideways and spin around.”

Kudo did as I said and spun.

The horned rabbits moved away from us.

I said to Kudo, “My butt is injured. Please use the potion!”

I lay face down on the ground and had potion poured on my pants’ torn part.

I touched my butt with my left hand.

Yeah, it was back to normal and clean.

I felt relieved.

But not only Kudo, even the horned rabbits attacked me — that was so unfair!

I was wearing light armor that only protected vital areas like my torso.

My butt was completely unguarded.

We were slow and couldn’t keep up with the rabbits’ speed.

This was impossible.

The matchup was terrible.

I told Kudo to retreat.

I had Kudo lead so I could use him as a shield, and I walked behind him.

Kudo’s armor was noisy as always.

Then again, horned rabbits gathered.

I had a very bad feeling.

Sure enough, a horned rabbit attacked me from behind — its horn pierced my right butt.

Ouch!

What the hell!

Why attack me?

Attack Kudo, not me!

Once again, my precious butt got poked.

The horned rabbit thrashed violently with its horn stuck in my butt.

Ouch!

I called Kudo.

He went behind me, caught the horned rabbit with both hands, pressed it down on the ground, and stomped on it.

The horned rabbit turned into particles of light and disappeared.

A magic stone from the horned rabbit remained on the ground.

I dragged my right foot while leaning on my axe like a staff.

This time, I led the way and Kudo followed closely.

Come to think of it, I had armor in front of me.

But my butt wasn’t protected.

I should have had Kudo protect my back.

I’m a man who can adapt flexibly to unexpected situations.

I walked while protecting my sore right butt and somehow reached near the dungeon gate.

“Are you okay?” a staff member at the gate ran toward me.

Too late! Come help faster next time!

“Your butt is injured. Bring a stretcher!” the staff shouted.

I was laid face down on a stretcher and sent to the attached clinic.

At the clinic, the nurse took off my shoes, pants, and underwear.

My precious butt was seen by a woman.

The doctor began explaining while applying disinfectant.

The explorer card is linked to a personal ID number and serves as insurance.

There were two options: anesthetize and sew the wound, or use a potion to heal (not covered by insurance).

I’m a man who never cuts corners on taking care of my butt that no one else sees!

So the answer was one.

“Potion, please.”

The doctor applied potion to my butt.

I touched it with my right hand.

Yeah.

Smooth as always.

Then I turned and looked at my butt.

Yeah.

Completely healed.

I put on my underwear, pants, and shoes, and left the treatment room into the hallway.
