“Chapter 319: Moonflower’s Descent 4”

Any sensation in my hands was disappearing. A blessing, in a way, as I couldn’t feel any more pain.

– Get ready! I can’t hold on for much longer!

– R-Right…

After instructing them both, I moved my arm with the little strength I had and swung Moonflower against the wall.

【――――】

With no resistance whatsoever, the sword sunk into the insides of the whale.

Frost was forming on the surface.

“I don’t like this”

– I’m sorry, you’re gonna have to put up with it.

“Understood”

It looks like more than half of the first stomach has lost its ability to function.

A crack appeared in one of the walls.

【a、A―――――】

– Enjoy your time as a giant ice block for the rest of your life.

The beast realized something was off, but it was too late.

– NOW!

The orange light of Mira’s ability illuminated the stomach.

* B O O M *

【…!!!　!!!!!!!!!】

Under normal circumstances, the whale would activate any of its defensive measures to stop the damage.

However, we’ve neutralized all of them by now.

– GET OUT! THIS IS IT! (Takaya)

The wall leading to the mouth was shattered to pieces. We were free to go into the oral cavity.

– We need to run. Whoever is behind this might use magic to heal the whale.

All of the protrusions were frozen, which served as a great grip to climb up the esophagus.

– Deko, did you use all the explosives?

– There’s one left.

Deko was carrying a bag that contained one last stone to pry open a hole.

– Thank you, Moonflower. I’ll make it up to you somehow.

Leaving the sword cleaved into the whale, we kept going until we found the exit.

I took out my new partner, made completely out of unbreakable, to carve a hole to dig the explosive.

I’ve also decided on the name already, using my terrible sense of names.

– I’m counting on you, Black.

The dark knife shimmered in response.

– Mira.

– Here we go. 3, 2, 1-

The operation was surprisingly quick, but it marked the end of a long stay inside the whale.

– Until never, Gigantowhale.

Seawater started leaking in from the hole.

We’re now connected to the outside world.

【Congratulations on clearing the game】
