"This way! This one is less magical!

　It seems that the enemy has finally noticed the magic that pervades the camp, and a man with a particularly high magic value, probably a sorcerer, leads the way in a direction where the magic power is thin.

　The camp, which was at the height of confusion, follows the man's instructions and some order returns to the camp.

　--And then, at that moment.

　There was a flash of a sound.

　Before the sorcerer's man can feel anything unusual, his companions, who were following behind him, notice it.

"Hey, you! It's .......

To ......?

　The sorcerer man, pointed by his trembling companion, and wondering what was going on, followed his fingertips and looked down - there was none.

　It wasn't there.

　In the man's field of vision - no, the one that didn't (・・・・・・) was his, abdomen.

　There was a gaping hole just from the tail to the chest, and its contents had disappeared.
　The moment he realized this, the man died before he could feel the pain.

　As soon as the sorcerer man falls, the identity of the thing that took his life appears wavering behind him.

Ivy ......?

　There was a tree ivy. Its tip was stained red, and the offal of the sorcerer's man hung there. 　
　It twirled like a living thing, and as it did so, the ivy assessed its next prey--a moment later, it pierced the skull of a soldier who was standing stunned.

　The blood droplets that danced with the bushes.

You can't do this! There's a monster!

　Seeing the scene, the soldiers hurriedly turned on their heels toward the camp.

"d*mn it! I thought you were activating a demon-avoiding magic tool!

"Hey! Bring that man back to his senses!　

"Which way should I run?

　The intruders have lost their bright spots of escape and are now a complete crowdsourced group.

　Some gather around them to defuse the situation, others push their comrades away and run off alone to save themselves, and still others are shouting nonsense or swinging their swords at their allies in a mad scramble.

　But then--.

What's this? Swamp?

　The bottomless swamp that appeared suddenly caught my foot and I was sinking with the weight of my body.

"Uhii! Help, help--

　The big-mouthed plant swallowed me whole, dissolving my body alive.

The plant was swallowed whole, and its body was dissolved alive.

　A poisonous fog like a strong acid bathing the whole body, searing the flesh of the whole body.

　One by one, the number of the living dwindles.

　There is nowhere to escape to, and there is hell.

d*mn it! Shit Shit Shit Shit! You guys need to stay away from me!

　The commander who was supposed to be in charge of this was already delirious and distraught, no longer in a position to give orders.

　Deep within the forest, the wailing of despair and cries of despair became less and less.

　--Before long, a hush fell over the forest.

Hmmm ...... kind of worked out better than I thought it would.

　Watching the scene through the monitor, I have a slightly twitching smile on my face.

　All you have to do is activate the enemy when they come near the traps I've set.
　It's just like a tower defense game. Well, it's me who's attacking.

　The reason why there were so many nature traps is because the forest is around us, and we don't want people to notice it.
　If I set a trap in the woods, like in a game, with a bow gun or a sword mountain, they would know. I'd want to set those traps in a cave like place.
　Well, I don't want to do anything to the cave before the throne room. I don't want Iruna and the maids to get hurt if it malfunctions or something.

　Anyway, this scene is too gory. It's so disgusting that it's off limits to people under 18 years old. You're lucky Iruna's asleep. I'd hate to see this.

　I don't have a high tolerance for gore.
　I did this to test the trap's usefulness, but it's ...... gross, so I don't really want to use the trap I used this time.

"There's nothing much to ...... about it. We can't kill all those people with just traps.

　I'm sure you'll be happy to know that I'm not the only one.
　It's a good thing that you're able to have a look at this level of detail. You're too mental. I admire you too much.

I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make it work.

　It wasn't like a whole army, but rather several small groups of armies. Their equipment was not uniform, maybe they had different affiliations.

　The concept of this trap was simple.
　Confuse the enemy and then destroy each one. It's a basic tactic from the olden days.

　To be honest, I didn't think it would work for me, but thanks to the fact that the enemy was disorganized, the initial disorientation caused by the illusion worked better than I expected and I was able to crush them without much trouble.

　Or is the enemy's incompetence a bit of a scary thing.
　Or is it the power of the dungeon that allows you to crush nearly four hundred of them with just a trap, even though the man I met with left his unit.

　...... Well, the strength of the dungeon is not a bad thing for me, so I'll take it as a good thing.

　I'll be relying on you, dungeon.

But how did you manage to place the trap in such a contrived position?

"The humans will come from the city. That's why I put a lot of emphasis on that one. I added a lot of traps after I got a good look at them, though.

I'm sure it's reasonable. ...... Hmm, I see. That's a good tactic for me to use: ....... All right, Yuki. That's the deal. On to the next round of diapers.



　I don't know what the "I see" is, but I'm not sure what it is, but I'm sure you'll find yourself in front of the game board.

"What ...... oops, you're going to do that now?

Of course. You have to be quick to take the game.

"Hey, man, you're a dick. We've got a few hours before the sun comes up.

"I've been taking too many naps lately, and I don't get much sleep at night.

　You goofy high dragon. .......


　By the way, I won the board game after this.
