Adorable Bandit-san


“HYAAAHAAAA! HAND OVER EVERYTHING YOU HAAAVE!!”


The reason I can understand this world’s language is thanks to the effect of the Language Translation skill. Since my words are also translated and delivered to the other party, I don’t have to worry about having any discomfort with conversation, truly a convenient ability. As expected of the daily special.


If I focus with this ability I can even communicate with animals but as expected there is really no need to go that far, let’s just limit the effectiveness to humans as it had been till now. It’s a power that could be configured like that too.


…Be that as it may, what’s with this cliche.


The bandit’s lines seemed like it was heard by half of humanity.


Despite thinking that, for the time being in order to make my existence known, I decided to stage a showy entrance.


I rush to the location between the horse drawn cart and the three bandits and abruptly stop with all my strength. The sudden deceleration whips up a flashy dust cloud.


I sprinted here barefoot and even though my feet have gouged a hole in the ground, it doesn’t hurt at all. Vampires sure are sturdy.


If I were still human, it would have been impossible to create this meteorite impact like circumstance with a regular human body. Vampires sure are amazing.


“W-What the-!?”


Even in the cloud of sand, I can understand that the three bandits and the horse drawn carriage’s movements have stopped. With my enhanced sense of smell I can grasp my surroundings.


…Aa, there’s an amazing smell coming from the carriage.


Some kind of sausage or preserved meat…also the sweet smell of bread and vegetables. The more I focus on it the hungrier I become. Having a strong sense of smell can also be a problem.


… Let’s finish this quickly and claim a reward.


While I thought about such things, the cloud of dust dispersed and I confronted the three bandits.


The bandit facing me on the right side pointed at me with a trembling finger,


“B-Boss! A pervert came out of the dust cloud!”


Oh, that kind of reaction huh.


Certainly, I’m not wearing any clothes right now. Once again looking at my body, I have long silver hair that seemed to wrap around my body relatively covering the important parts but, no matter how you look at it I have the appearance that I’m naked. It probably can’t be helped that I’m treated as a female pervert.


Well, right now that doesn’t matter anyway. What’s important to me now is that I satisfy my hunger.


“Umm, excuse me bleeding forehead merchant-san”


“Y-Yes!?”


I turned around and the merchant bleeding from his forehead replied while covering his face with his hands.


To not look at a naked woman’s body, how very gentlemanly… or so I thought, until I saw him staring at my butt through the gaps in his fingers. Huh, he was just your typical closet pervert.


“If you give me food I’ll help you out, so what will it be?”


“Huh…what?”


“ No, I’m saying if you give me food I’ll save you. If you don’t want that I’ll immediately go somewhere else, so what will it be?”


“Err, then, please…”


“Ok, your request has been accepted.”


Obviously the other party was in a state of confusion but he agreed to my offer. I got him to agree, so it’s my win in this situation. *Grin*


Well then, as promised let’s help him.


I’m passionless but I don’t like to break promises. Promises are something meant to be kept. Because I’ve made one, I’ll properly keep it. Swallowing a thousand needles is scary anyway.


“Well then… From the right, you’re Overgrown Leghair-san, Caped Baldy-san, and Semi-visible Nosehair-san“


“””WHAT’S WITH THAT NAMING!?”””


They splendidly harmonized. The three of them actually harmonized their dissatisfaction. I thought the nicknames captured their unique features, but it looks like they don’t like them.


Good grief, whether it’s these guys or Loligramps-san, they’re such selfish people. Be like bleeding from his forehead merchant-san and show me you can obediently accept the name.


“Overgrown Leghair-san, Caped Baldy-san, did you want Semi-visible Nosehair-san’s name?”


“””THAT WASN’T THE PROBLEM!!!”””


Again they harmonized. They sure do get along~.


While I was thinking about what to call them, the three bandits simultaneously jumped off their horses. As they do so, they somersaulted in midair and landed on the ground elegantly. Each of them took a strange pose and started to give a speech.


“I am the chain and sickle, Chihuahua!”


“I am the explosive, Dachs!”


“And finally there’s the amazing me, the knife thrower, Terrier!! All together we three are the Terrier Bandit Troupe! “


“….Pff-“


“””IS THERE SOMETHING FUNNY!?”””


“S-sorry, just give me a minute… Pffhaha”


…Don’t you all have names of small dogs?


Since it’s another world, the meaning might be different. From my perspective though, all three of them are dogs! And small dog breeds at that!


The three all look tough, but their names… Ah, this is bad. I’m completely stuck on the dog thing.. To make matters worse, the three of them seem to be pretty honorable; they’re just watching me laugh at them while their shoulders shake in anger. That barely contained trembling looks just like a puppy…


“Aha, Ahahahaha! I can’t take it anymore, what’s with that? It’s so cute…Ahahahahahha!”


“You bastard…Don’t get so cocky!”


“Kyaan!?”


Chain and sickle Chihuahua-chan, in accordance to his name, used a chain and sickle to attack me.


The sickle that Chihuahua-chan is holding has a chain attached to its body and a counterweight on the other end. A pretty typical chain and sickle appearance.


The horizontally swung chain wrapped around my body. As Chihuahua-chan pulled the chain, it constricted and the counterweight got caught in the chain, completing a lock.


… Ahh, so this is how the chain and sickle catches its opponents.


I’m surprised. And then since my surprised voiced sounded unexpectedly feminine, I became even more surprised.


As expected, even though I have the consciousness of a male, the body is that of a female. No way, I’m being forcefully turned into a girl…!


“Guhehe…I don’t know why there’s a pervert in this place but what a fine jewel this is. Acting all carefree…After we thoroughly enjoy ourselves, we’ll sell you off to the slave dealer! “


I’m sorry but losing my virginity only three days after being born is a little bit too much for me.


There was a part of me that was still going with the flow, but if it becomes that sort of circumstance, at least be a bit cooler, have a stable income, let me roll around without having to do anything, and smile with a friendly grin while accepting anything I ask, that kind of person is good! As a parasitic target, I mean, lover!


“Oi oi, haven’t you become rather calm? Ahh!? Do you understand the situation you’re in?”


“Ah, Yes yes, I understand perfectly, Chihuahua-chan”


“Calling me with –chan…You bastard, it looks like you won’t understand till I seriously violate you at least once! “


Chihuahua-chan’s veins stood out as he pulled tightly on the chain. He started to draw me in, or so he had planned.


“Hng-!?”


… It’s not good to think that I’m that powerless okay?


I only lightly put power into my legs but with Chihuahua-chan’s degree of strength I didn’t budge. The look as if something unbelievable just happened settled into Chihuahua’s eyes.


“W-Why…!?”


“You also, can you see the situation you are in?”


In the first place, three mob characters not thinking about anything and challenging an opponent is a stupid thing to do.


The reason why I decided appeared in front of them is quite simple. It’s because from the people standing in front of me, I don’t feel any wonder or amazement.


For example, it feels like I’m looking at hamsters in a cage. See, there’s no sense of danger to be felt right? Rather, you’d think it’s an adorable thing to look at.


Somehow, right now it seems I can grasp the level of strength the opposition has just by looking at them. Specifically, by smelling them.


This is the “Blood Reading” skill. With this skill, I can grasp information on the opponent’s ability through their blood but, somehow from the smell of their blood I can also generally understand their level of strength as well.


The opposition haven’t spilt any blood. But even still, at this distance, my nose can tell approximately what kind of blood they have every time. This is thanks to the Enhanced Olfaction skill.


Meaning, this information was obtained by using blood reading and enhanced olfaction together.


… Well, I already maxed out blood reading anyways.


It was a little unreasonable but, the fact that it became unusually convenient is not a laughing matter. Reaching this effect with just smell every time that is.


For example, even if they all teamed up against me I wouldn’t receive even a scratch. Because I have such confidence that’s why I have been so carefree.


“Heave-ho”


Because the sensation of the chains were annoying, I turned the upper half of my body into fog and slipped out from the chain and sickle. This is the Fog-Form ability. I can even turn just individual parts of my body into fog. Very convenient.


“W-Wha…!?”


“Tch…Dachs!”


“Got it, boss”


Unlike the dumbfounded Chihuahua-chan, Terrier-chan calmly gave Dachs-chan instructions.


Dachs-chan took out a round object from his breast pocket. The round object had a cord-like substance connected to it and Dachs-chan lit it on fire with a match.


Since it seems your name is “Explosive Dachs”, that is without a doubt a bomb right.


“How about this!!”


Dachs-chan took a clean pitching form and with an overhand throw, he tossed the bomb.


Isn’t this, a pretty tight situation I’m in?


“What will you do if you damage the goods…Wind-san, I’ll leave it to you alright”


Wind Magic.


I only have one point allocated in it so I can’t do anything amazing but, summoning some wind is no problem.


As I wanted, a sudden gust appeared and blew the bomb back to the source, the perpetrators; goodbye… Ah. The fire didn’t go out.


“”Uheeeee!?””


“Get down, men!”


Thanks to Terrier-chan promptly pushing the two down, It seems that the three of them didn’t take any damage from the bomb.


The sound of the explosion resounded fairly impressively but, looking at it, the power isn’t that much. Since I decided to take them alive, I should use something with less gunpowder huh.


“Ku…You bastard, you aren’t an ordinary pervert are you!”


“Ehh, well…I’m not a pervert though”


Since my feelings are that of a male, molester… No, that also has a bad implication to it.


Anyway, it’s not like I’m not wearing clothes because I like it or anything, being called a pervert is upsetting okay?


“If it’s become like this then I don’t care if there’s some injuries. With my knife throwing-“


“Wind-san, would you kindly”


“””UWAAAAAAAAA!?”””


Since I’m going to get seriously hungry soon, it’s time to end this.


I abundantly gather my magic power, and with magic I summoned a sudden gust of wind.


Even though what I did was simple, if I increase the input of magic power, the scale of the spell becomes bigger; it seems like this is one of the rules of magic in this world. The manual in my head doesn’t seem to be false so with peace of mind, I confidently made use of my power to charge magic to full.


Once I gathered up a vast amount of magic power to create a gust, it became a giant vortex swallowing up the small breed dog-guys and blowing them away.


Splendidly harmonized screams were heard as they left their horses behind and the figures of the Terrier Bandit Troupe disappeared from my line of view.


“Haaa, I’m really hungry now”


They were pretty interesting so I wanted play with them some more but, right now getting some food is my maximum priority.


Well I more or less went easy on them so I don’t think they’ll die.


Probably.
