Monster Girl Ranching in Another World

Chapter 101 - Duck, And Thrust!

There was a lot to go through, but not a lot had changed with my stats, but I did get a better look at the totems, and I was interested in Kali's totem; it looks like I wasn't going to need the help from the system for that.

That would leave Veronica, but If this System was going to work in the way I thought it did, then I would be given something to help, maybe change her somehow. That might be asking for a lot, but at this point, I really wasn't sure what a lot should be constituted at. ? ?

Hydie squealed with excitement as I burst forward; the Wind Force that the Pact lent me boosted me. The Primal Totem made me fast and strong, which made me even faster, but there was an edge to this Pact.

The wind is strong and can be violent, but it is also very fragile. Because of my Water Sphinx Totem, I was able to feel that my body was actually weaker, but I was being pumped by the Wind Force.

I burst out of the tunnel onto the plateau and then turned to the path for the Village.

"Hold on to me, and don't let go. Mex said that he guarded the path, but you can stop everything, so I will have to move faster and watch my surroundings," I explained, and Hydie got down from me and then stepped back.

I watched Hydie, but I was about to tell her that we needed to go. Instead, I decided to see what she was doing as Hydie pressed her hands together and closed her eyes.

Hydie opened her eyes, but now they were rolling waves, and the pink drained from her body, and it was replaced with dark blue water. She stepped forward, and Hydie placed her hands on my chest and started to walk into me until she disappeared.

As Hydie did this, the dark blue water of her body completely coated my body. It was like slowly sinking into chilled water, but I could immediately feel the effects of whatever Hydie had done.

[Deep Sea Pressure Barrier] Activated!

"This will help you stay unnoticed, but it will also give you some protection while using your Wind Pact, but do not use your Fire Pact at night if I am your Barrier, or we will alert the entire island of where we are," Hydie explained to me, her voice coming from my shoulder.

"Noted; is there anything else that you think that I should know?" I asked as I started to run down the pine path.

I was already surveying the area, and it was getting to the end of twilight; I just needed to hurry. If I could move fast enough, I could get to the water before anything big came out.

"You can go straight into the water like this; it will be fine for me. I will also create small pockets of air for you underwater. I can design my body for different things now, but that is really the only thing that this new thing can do in battle. The effects that it can do outside of it are also only superficial things and just illusions," Hydie whispered to me, and I nodded as I ran.

"Keep using your abilities whenever you can. The more you use them, the more you will be able to learn new ones and improve the old ones. You can only make the illusion right now? That is very helpful in combat; think about if someone was chasing us and we hid behind something quickly. Now, what if you made us look like we weren't there?" I whispered back, blowing a bubble first before Hydie let me have an air hole.

I was about halfway, but now dark had set in, but we still seem to be in the clear. I pulled and dug at the power that was naturally running in my body, pouring it into my Wind Pact.

I started to move faster, much faster, but I could feel a drain on me. It was like I was using a nitro boost, and it was draining my tank fast.

<Stop! Don't use your own body's energy; that is the last resort. You are using your own life force to boost yourself, and it is perilous!>

I cut off the boost immediately and slowed back down to the pace that I was going before. I was almost to the Village, but now there were things starting to head towards me.

"You shouldn't have done that! You just sent out a challenge to every creature in the area! When you use your own energy, your power radiates out of you. If you were stronger, it would be a good thing, but there are many things out here far stronger than you, and now you just told them you want to fight!" Hydie told me, no longer whispering.

Three giant apes the size of houses were tailing me; A large harry humped back beast with horns was coming from the right; ten plus hyena man things to the left swinging clubs and flails. I just ran as hard as I could; there was no fighting with even one of the groups.

I was almost to the Village, but the apes and Hyena men were close, and I jumped to avoid a club thrown at my legs. I could feel a hand coming down on me, but I ducked and switched to my Water Pact in a blink.

I used the force of the massive hand coming down on my back along with the tips of the fingers to spring forward with a pelvic thrust. I had to land into a double roll and then jump up to sprint to the beach that was in sight.

There had been an assortment of weapons thrown at me, and only the Water Sphinx Totem had allowed me to see the weapons being thrown. Those hyenas were outstanding shots, and there would have been no way to dodge those attacks usually.

I was on the beach now, but the feeling of being chased was no longer on me, but I barely dodged two twirling flails. The monsters had stopped, and the bastards weren't even bothering each other; the apes were pushing the Hyena men and pointing at me.

I gave them two middle fingers and a couple pelvic thrusts as fuck you's. Then I dodged more thrown weapons as I ran to the water, waving my fingers in the air.
