“W-w-w-what’s that!?”
“What is it Melt!? What are you… Ah!?”
Yuugo also looked out the window, and was rendered speechless by what he saw.
Melt was pointing at a giant tree… A tree that easily exceeded the inn in height, and was coming towards them.
“I-i-i-i-it’s huge! Wait, why is a tree moving!?”
“Yuugo! That’s not just a tree! It’s a trent!!”
“Trent?”
“A monster born when a tree is possessed by evil. But what is with that size!? It’s many times the size of a normal trent!”
Yelled Marcos, as the giant tree drew closer and closer.
Yuugo learned from their reactions that this one was clearly on a different level compared to regular ones, and as he turned to the tree again, he heard Narul speak with an amused smile.
“Ah, ah, ah! Do you see it? That’s the product of a tree absorbing the slime I created. An artificial trent, if you will! That’s my trump card! But it’s not complete yet! Witness its true power!!”
“Ah!? Dammit!”
Narul yelled triumphantly, before crushing what looked like slime fluid she had hidden, which liquefied her own body. In this state, she managed to slip by Yuugo and the others.
They felt frustrated that they let her get away because their attention was on the giant monster, and Shian and Egos were furious at the one that tricked them into gifting her their virginity.
“Don’t let her get away!! We’re not forgiving her!!”
“Everyone come with us! Let’s take it down!!”
“Y-yes!!”
“Eh!? Ah, wait! Everyone!! Wait!”
“P-president! Please wait!!”
Shian and Egos wanted to settle this matter with Narul no matter what, and yelled as they went after her.
When this happened, the charisma boost that came with being main characters meant that the members of the cooking club followed their instructions and also went after her. This prompted Precia to go after them, and Hao to go after Precia out of concern for her.
“An! I should ask, did you make something like an armor that combines and turns giant for a situation like this?”
“Of course not! What am I, some crazy inventor that comes up with everything!?”
“I figured! Sorry, forget it!”
A giant robot battle was something that got this nichiasa hero fired up, but it was not the time for that.
Yuugo was a little stuck on his otaku way of thinking that making a giant robot would be really hard to begin with, but shook it off and gave his friends instructions.
“I’m worried about the president and the others, but if those people that went after Narul fight that trent, this building will be damaged for sure! We need to evacuate the villagers!”
“Got it! I’ll guide them!”
“I’ll go too! Sorry innkeeper, but busting down a wall and running is the fastest way!”
Said Melt followed by An.
“Hurry! Considering the trent’s distance and what Shian and Egos are doing, we don’t have much time! Get everyone as far away as possible!”
They all heard Yuugo, and took positions based on where they would be most useful.
Yuugo and Marcos stood in the rear, but when he prompted his brother Phi to evacuate as well…?
“Phi? Phi! Where are you!? Phi!!”
Yuugo yelled after realizing he was nowhere to be seen.
He then remembered his little brother was worried about Shiroi, and looked at the trent outside.
“Did he go out to ask where Shiroi is…!”
Only Narul knew where Shiroi was, so Phi might have gone after her to make sure his friend was safe.
Yuugo lamented losing sight of him among the members of the cooking club, and Marcos realized what was happening.
“Yuugo, leave this to us and go after your brother!”
“Marcos… Sorry, I’m counting on you!”
He thanked his friend who was thoughtful of him, and ran towards the trent, chasing Narul.
He prayed that nothing happened before he got there, as he ran as fast as he could.

Maybe Yuugo should try to figure out if there is a way to grow big like the giants of light, although I guess thats not part of nichiasa.
