B+, and the maximum level…? Huh, but… Aren’t its stats a bit low for that? Neither its attack nor magic stats are very high.
It might even be a bit lacking compared to others of the same rank… But I can’t let my guard down.
There are too many skills that worry me.
I-it might be best not to mess with it.
For that matter I don’t want to get involved with it at all.

『Hey, bird meat…』

Can it even be eaten!? Even if we defeat it, it’d just be a lump of poison! It’s got [Poison Sash] after all!

“Shaah!!”

The basilisk’s snake tail hisses.
Its white plumage is covered in a light which sinks into its body and disappears.

Th-that was… [High Quick]? For that matter, the tail is the one that uses it…? As long as it’s under the effect of magic doping, I can’t hope to catch up.

I feel sorry for my partner, but running away would be best… I glance towards Aro, and she jumps with a start, then squeezes her shoulders and closes her eyes as though understanding me.
S-sorry… After apologising to her in my heart, I stuff her in my mouth.
Next is the treant… Huh where is the treant? Treant-san?

The treant had moved to the front before I realised.
Its branches are spread wide, as though to say 『Come at me!』.
No, it’s impossible though!? I understand your happy about evolving, but if you take a hit from it you’ll be smashed up without a chance of survival!

As I hurriedly try to grab the treant, the basilisk (old man) howls… No, it screams in a strange voice as it runs this way.

“AA, AaAAA, AAAAAaaaAaah!!”

A jarring scream resounds, and I’m seized by fear for a moment.
It’s fast, too.
The slightly thin giant chicken body, accompanied by the old man head, thrusts forwards at a terrifying speed.
I experience fear in spite of the difference in size.
That mistake is fatal.

From the roots up, the treant’s body turns to stone.
Panicked, the treant swing its branches, but the erosion is fast.
In the blink of an eye, the treant is entirely transformed into a stone statue.

T-treant-san!? T-this can’t be true.
Will it turn back!? As I stand bewildered, the basilisk continues to close the distance.

“Gaah!”

My partner howls, and the treant is wrapped in a gentle light.
It’s the [Holy] magic.
But there’s no change in it.

『I-it’s no good… Sorry…』

She hangs her head.
It seems she regrets saying that she wanted to eat chicken meat.
But the delay in our escape was due to my error.

W-what do we do… No way, will it stay this way forever…? No, if the basilisk treats petrified monsters as stores of food, then… It must have a way of turning them back.
I need to render it powerless, then force it use it somehow.
