Chapter 96 - Confessions and a Really stupid idea.

"What is that thing?", Savina asked with a mix of horror, surprise and awe. If she had the Dragon's Eye, she'd be panicking even more.

"The eye says it's called an Omukade", I began to explain, "the best way to describe this thing is if a mountain and a centipede got fused into one,and then it was combined with the pure rage only seen in wars, bears that have been kicked awake and...cuckholds"?

"That doesn't sound good".

"It isn't, but we're here now so we might as well try and do something", I said to Savina.

[Voxea, if Savina and I attacked this thing, can we beat it]?

[Eh... fifty-fifty and that is if the Omukade doesn't know any area of effect techniques], she plainly stated.

[What if it does know area if effect techniques]?

[Then we're all going to die. Well, you're all gonna die. I'm going to end up as a sealed majimonster until only the gods know how long. So... we're going to have be clever in order to save those hapless fools], Voxea told me.

[And the plan to do so involves...].

Meanwhile, at the Lobaine's wagon

"Louis...if we're going to die here, I think we should spend these last few moments to get some things off our chests".

"Things? Like what Cynthia"?

"Well... remember that time when we ate that cafe in Flotsam and you thought the waiter forgot your order of Manatee Cheesecake?", Cynthia said in a guilty tone.

"Yeah, it was an honest....No...I thought you didn't want any!", Louis said in a shocked manner.

"I didn't...at first, but it came when you had to use the latrines and it just looked so good that I couldn't help myself! I'm sorry Honeyhound! Can you forgive me?", she said in a cute yet sad voice along with a pouty face.

"Oooh, Caramel twist! Of course I do!", Louis said before kissing his wife in forgiveness.

"Well...if we're being honest...", Louis began.

"What?", Cynthia asked in a worried tone.

"...I want to settle down"!

"Really?! You mean it"?

"Of course I do! I know I said no before, but after traveling with for so long, I think it's now time for us to put down some roots and start having kids, ya know?", he said with conviction.

"Oh Honeyhound!", Cynthia exclaimed while embracing Louis. Unbeknownst to them, their Thunderhorn, Strider, was rolling his eyes while running.

"But now that all this is...".

"Don't say that!", Cynthia said with a firm tone, "We can still get out of this and we can still start our family".

"It's going to take a miracle to get out of this though...", Louis thought while urging Strider to run faster.

"Uhh...are you sure about this Silvia? This doesn't seem-".

"Savina, Voxea assured me this was the plan that the highest chance of us saving those people from that giant majimonster with minimal casualties. Now please...do the thing before I have regrets", I said with forced bravery.

In order to get the people to safety, Voxea explained to me that we had to use Azalea's [Body Double] technique in an empowered state. If we timed it right, the Omukade would have smashed nothing but logs and the wagon, the people and the Thunderhorn would be teleported to safety. That sounds easy, but there were two problems.

The first was that my summoning range and controlling range was rather short. I've only been a binder for a few months so I could only summon my majimonsters at most ten feet away from me. Supposedly, as I grow stronger as a binder I will be able to summon and control majimonsters several thousand feet away and in places that I'm not even looking at. Unfortunately, I am nowhere near that strong presently. The solution to this would be for me to get up close to the wagon and use the technique then, but that leads to the second problem.

Rakka's fast for a majimonster, but he wasn't fast enough. By the time I rode down the valley wall and got close enough to the wagon, the Omukade would've swallowed them up whole.

We needed to get close and we needed to do it fast...which is why...our solution was to...

"Ok Triton, put your back into it and throw it as hard as you can"!

"VOOOOAAA"!

Throw me like a ball at high speeds.
