Reborn as the Hero’s Daughter! Time to Become the Hero Once More! Chapter 153

I returned back to the student rows and joined up with Michelle and Letina. The two leaned their bodies towards , waiting impatiently for what information I had brought with .

What were the teachers talking about?

Was Ms. Cortina against it, after all?

Their eagerness made lean backwards a bit. I pushed the two away with both hands and conveyed what I learned from the earlier conversation.

I think Cortinaour teacher realized that I was eavesdropping on them.

She realized And didnt say anything?

It was just my personal opinion, but the two started pondering seriously at my words. I already learned the Mountain Serpents location from the man before. We could head to it imdiately as long as we made up our minds to subjugate it.

The rest was dependent on their opinions.

Um, Nicole

Hm?

If I said I wanted to slip out and defeat it It would be a bad thing, right?

Sure enough, Letina and Michelle started timidly beating around the bush. Of course, I already had my answer.

Of course it would be. But its not impossible.

Then What if I said I didnt care if I was scolded for it

Letina followed up with an appeal of her own, looking as if she would cry any mont, and yet her expression was also resolute. Responding to their request, I suggested an escape plan.

The forest up ahead has a restricted view. If we slip out of the ranks there, no one should notice.

Then, lets do that!

Her claim lacked the usual vigor. But I felt a stronger will than ever in her words. Unlike other tis, she was insisting that she wouldnt miss, co hell or high water.

The arrows arent that long, not to ntion the Serpents hide and flesh are tough and thick. If we are going to take it down in one shot, your only choice is to aim for its eyes.

Got it! Ill make sure to hit it.

In that case, Ill take on the role of luring it towards the valley.

But thats the most dangerous part

Letina looked at in shock, but I was unquestionably the most agile among us. Michelle who was ranked second couldnt play that part, because she needed to position herself accordingly beforehand from where she would be able to aim for its eyes. Letina also had a part to play that only she could.

Its okay. Im small so even if I get eaten, Id just end up being swallowed whole. If that happens, Ill just use my dagger and cut my way out through its belly.

Your thoughts are quite gory contrary to your appearance, huh.

Still, be careful, okay?

Michelle replied worriedly after the exasperated Letina. Thanks to that, I beca a bit more motivated.

In the first place, if I got swallowed, Id probably get crushed to death by its overwhelming mass before I could reach its stomach. So my earlier words were nothing more than a joke to calm Michelle down.

After parting with the two, I headed towards the north. It was the course where the Mountain Serpent was heading to. Gradually, a rumbling sound ca through the gaps in the trees. They suggested that the Serpent was already nearby.

I wasnt familiar with the region so I used the map I prepared in advance to plan out my actions. To be honest, I was quite a bit anxious, not knowing what to expect the terrain to look like.

Despite that, I believed that Id manage sohow and advanced ahead. That was just how big Michelles eagerness had influenced .

It should show up anytimwoaah!?

I couldnt bla myself for leaking a weird voice. The Mountain Serpent had suddenly, in a completely unexpected mont, raised its head from beyond the trees.

There shouldve been over a hundred ters between us, but it was so gigantic it distorted my sense of distance and I was overco with a sense of oppression. It ignored as I stood petrified and calmly inspected the surroundings.

The animals in the surroundings seed to have already fled as there was only the sound of grass reaching my ears.

No, thats not quite right.

There was also a hissing sound like that of steam being emitted. Needless to say, it ca from the Serpent.

This was a threatening sound, which ant that it sensed a new prey sowhere. But as there were no other animals around That prey was most likely I. This ans that it knew exactly where I was.

Realizing that, I started to take distance bit by bit. I was a bit too close. Even if I wanted to lure it, I needed to put a bit more distance between us.

It seed to have sensed my movent, it looked my way and charged with all its might.

Snakes were silent and deaf. But they still had their thermal sensing, so it was no use hiding. My Stealth Gift was turned completely powerless.

Waaghhhhh!?

It chased after with serpentine movents while its head remained in the air. Every ti it twisted its body, the trees were mowed down with loud cracks.

I strengthened my legs with threads while also launching so from my hands and slingshotted myself forward. Our speeds were roughly the sa.

This was pretty good for as a guide since it wouldnt fall behind no matter what. But saying it another way, it would catch the mont I lose focus even for an instant.

I dashed through the trees, ran down the slope and before long arrived at a large river. This river was simply flowing through the forest now, but the end of it was flowing into the valley ahead. I grabbed a branch with my threads and leapt to the riverside like a pendulum.

Swinging myself forward like that allowed to descend at speeds unimaginable from humans, and then rushed into the valley. But even that kind of speed would not be enough to shake off the Serpent. The downward slope was boosting its speed just like mine.

Thus I ran with the Mountain Serpent at my back, and finally, I arrived at the planned checkpoint. As if to match with my timing, a thunderous roar was heard followed by the collapse of the cliffs at either side, bringing with it an avalanche of rocks.

I dodged the crumbling rocks with a hairs breadth And dove into the river.
