　“Colleague…? Oh !? If it isn’t Thousand Hands.” (Lei Fang)

　Lei Fang the corpse was so surprised that she couldn’t believe it, and rushed to one of my [Thousand Hands].

　Excited, she sticks out her arms and hugs my [Thousand Hands].

“—Hey, Lei Fang! Your claws—retract them! Do you want to break my [Thousand Hands]!?”

“Oops, how shameless of me!” (Lei Fang)

　Lei Fang finally remembered that she had her claw-shaped weapons on her arms. Her Unique Skill… [Equal Zero].

　She was laughing and scratching the back of her head, But if her claws had touched my [Thousand Hands], it wouldn’t have been a laughing matter!

　Because her skill is—

“The ability to destroy any object touched by her claws… Truly, how troublesome. I don’t know what I’d do if that thing touched my [Thousand Hands].”

“Uhuh, what an intriguing idea, will it destroy only the [Thousand Hands] it touches or will it affect all [Thousand Hands]…” (Lei Fang)

“I’m not interested, and don’t even try it.”

“Wait, a minute the [Thousand Hands]… Oh, Narugoa! It’s been a long time!” (Lei Fang)

“Did you just notice…?”

　Lei Fang laughed, “Ahaha,” the tag on her forehead shaking, but I can’t find what’s so funny.

　As usual, she is quite a talkative person even though she is a corpse…

“Well, Narugoa, who is this…?” (Alraune)

　Alraune asked as she gazed at her half anxious and half amazed.

　I hadn’t noticed until then, but Sergeant and Kyuu-chan were also staring at her.

　Oh yeah, I forgot to introduce her.

“She’s Lei Fang, to put it briefly, a colleague from my old company before I came to the Cave of Silence.”

“Nice to meet you, Little Miss Forest Alraune, may I shake your hands?” (Lei Fang)

“Hoh… Nice to meet you…” (Alraune)

　Lei Fang’s pale hand extended towards her.

　Alraune grabbed her hand slightly—then, Lei Fang’s arm fell off her shoulder and fell apart.

“Hiiiie!?” (Alraune)

　Shocked by the sight, Alraune involuntarily throws Lei Fang’s arm.

　Lei Fang picked up her pale arm lying on the desert sand laughing, “Ahaha,” and put it back in place.

　It was as if it was a toy or something.

“Wahaha, I got you, it’s made from iron plate.” (Lei Fang)

“Shi……!” (Alraune)

“…please don’t tease my subordinates.”

“Ahaha, I mean no disrespect.” (Lei Fang)

　She continues to laugh with the familiar “Ahaha!”, ignoring the glare from Alraune.

　Her “my pace” attitude is the same.

　…No, that’s not the issue!

“Let’s talk later! First, that hero in full-body armor—!”

“Oh, you mean that hero in armor? She’s not a problem, look.” (Leifang)

　Lei Fang points to the “Hero in Armor” with a chuckle.

　We looked back as immediately and noticed something different.

　The Hero in armor, who hadn’t spoken at all until then and didn’t even give a shred of emotion, changed she saw Lei Fang. There was fear in her eyes.

“Are you scared of my skill… or do you just hate me? She’s not yet exhausted, but anyway, whenever she sees me—” (Lei Fang)

　Then the Hero in armor groaned a little, before gliding in the sand faster than before

“Oy, wait!” (Sand Alraune)

　One of Sand Alraunes screams, but the Hero in armor slides over the sand without looking back…

　And she disappeared in a blink of an eye.

　Silence returns to the Desert of Death.

“—As you can see, she runs away after glancing at me, Ahaha.” (Lei Fang)

“What’s going on…”

　Her “Ahaha”s caused the tense air to dissolve immediately, and I collapsed into the spot.

　The same is true for Kyuu-chan and Sergeant, who exhaled a deep sigh and crouched down on the spot.

　The Sand Alraunes gathered there.

　It is Mamira who is taking the lead.

　Mamira quickly rushes towards Lei Fang, leaving behind the other Sand Alraunes, kneeling immediately.

“Professor! Please give me permission to pursue her! The hero in armor will be killed by me this time!” (Mamira)

“Hey.” (Lei Fang)

“Ouch.” (Mamira)

　Lei Fang’s pale fist hits Mamira’s head.

“Didn’t I say it before? Your role is to intercept the Hero in armor who has attacked the dungeon, and the enemy of the desert is not only the Hero in armor. What will happen then?” (Lei Fang)

“That is…! But the Hero in armor… This is to avenge my friends…!” (Mamira)

“I didn’t leave the [Stinger] to settle your personal grudge, I gave it to you to protect the dungeon, you understand?” (Lei Fang)

“I’m sorry…” (Mamira)

　Mamira, who was so arrogant to Alraune, crumbled in front of her like a child and gave an apology.

　Looking at them, the other Sand Alraunes too send gazes filled with respect towards Lei Fang.

“Lei Fang, they are…”

“Oh, by the way, let me introduce them.” (Lei Fang)

　For a moment, Lei Fang nodded her head, pointing to the five Sand Alraunes, and with a serious face,

“They are armed with the plant monsters I developed… the Armed Sand Alraune Squad named [Stinger]—my subordinates!” (Lei Fang)
