Episode 134 Orc Castle's Garm
The next Sunday, Alisa and the others gathered in front of the Suigetsu Dungeon.
"Hey, hey, did Alisa learn 'Heat Shell'?"
Yukari asked.
"Yeah, I managed to learn it."
Only Alisa and Amane were able to learn 'Heat Shell' until today. It looked like it would take a little longer for Chika.
"As expected of Alisa. When you use 'Heat Shell', you use a copper ring. What are you going to do about that?"
"I asked Grimm-sensei where he got the copper rings and had them prepared."
Alisa had heard of the factory that made the copper rings and she was ordering and getting the same.
Alisa and the others who entered the dungeon went down to the 10th floor by the shortest route. Amane and Alisa decided to try 'Heat Shell' against the ArmorBoar they encountered there.
After discovering the ArmorBoar, the two would use 'Heat Shell' against monsters for the first time. That 'Heat Shell' was a magic for dealing a finishing blow. To create that opportunity, Chika and Yukari stepped forward.
Alisa and Amane, who trusted the two of them, waited for the opportunity they created while clutching a copper ring in their hands.
The ArmorBoar, which found Chika-tachi, charged with a forceful snort. Chika jumped out and cut at its leg with a QuintHighBlade.
The ArmorBoar that rotated in the air was slammed into the ground from the back. Yukari then fired a QuintThunderBowl. The ArmorBoar's whole body trembled lightly.
At that moment, Amane and Alisa were preparing SeventhHeatShell. At the same time, they threw in a copper ring, and cannonball-shaped D-Particle Shells were launched towards the ArmorBoar.

The moment the ArmorBoar stood up, Amane's D-Particle Shell slipped under the ArmorBoar's chin and hit it in the chest, while Alisa's D-Particle Shell hit its head. As a result, two streaks of metal jets penetrated the monster's body.
Two explosions occurred, and Alisa crossed her arms in front of her face to endure the blast. When the blast subsided, they could see the ArmorBoar lying on the ground.
"Nn, why?"
Amane tilted her head. Since she had the feeling that they had killed it, she wondered why the body of the ArmorBoar did not disappear.
"Uwaa, it's been a long time since we've had a Dungeon Error."
Yukari raised her voice. Amane nodded in agreement with her voice.
Alisa smiled wryly.
"A Dungeon Error at a time like this ..."
Chika worried about the time and she asked everyone what to do.
"Because of this huge body, we can't put everything in the Magic Bag."
Alisa and the others decided to bring back the fur and fangs. They worked together to strip the fur and retrieve the fangs.
"What about the meat?"
Yukari asked. Alisa and the others didn't know whether ArmorBoar meat was delicious or not. For the time being, they slit its throat, drained the blood, put some meat in a plastic bag, and put it in the Magic Bag.
After that, they aimed for the 12th floor. On the 12th floor, they entered from the front of the Orc Castle. They eliminated any OrcKnights that got in their way. They broke down the main gate and went upstairs while defeating OrcKnights.
The hidden door to the treasury was on the second floor. There was a large shelf in a room that looked like a conference room. This was what Yukari discovered by using the 'Mana Trace' she learned.
There were stairs, so they headed down. When they went down to the basement, there was a door. When they opened the door, they found a dome-shaped room containing twelve black boxes. It was the same story they heard from Grimm.
There was another door in the back of the room.
"There should be a Garm inside. Get ready."
The three other than Yukari activated 'Sensing Zone' and 'Auto Shield', while Yukari activated 'Mana Watch'.
Alisa and the others opened the door in the back and went inside. Feeling the presence of a demon in the dimly lit room, everyone felt their hearts beat faster.
The giant monster lying down stood up. It was a dog one size larger than a racehorse. Its face resembled that of a Tosa Dog, and it snarled.
The Garm suddenly howled. Then, four BlackHyenas appeared from the darkness. Alisa and the others were each attacked by one.
Chika killed hers with a TripleBlade, and the remaining three killed theirs with QuadArrow. The Garm, who saw that, howled continuously and summoned a large number of BlackHyenas.
"Chika, leave the BlackHyenas to us and attack the Garm."
"Roger."
Alisa and the others started exterminating the BlackHyenas, and Chika stepped forward to attack the Garm. Of course, the BlackHyenas attacked her, but Alisa and the others also repelled the BlackHyenas that attacked Chika.
Chika fired a SeventhJavelin at the Garm. The Garm dodged the SeventhJavelin with agile movements. The Garm seemed to be able to see the movement of D-Particles as well.
The Garm jumped at Chika. Chika used a QuadCatapult to toss her body diagonally upward. The Garm's gaze chased after Chika. Its long tail was swung towards Chika.
Chika remembered Tesshin's advice and slammed a SeventhPush into its tail. It must have hurt. The Garm raised a voice similar to a scream. Chika landed and unleashed a SeventhThunderArrow.
The Garm avoided the attack and quickly attacked Chika. The Garm's face was distorted when a SeventhPush was slammed into its nose, and it tried to howl.
"I won't let you!"
After driving off the BlackHyenas, Yukari activated 'Hole' in the Garm's mouth. With 'Hole', Life Magic for digging holes, a ladle-like object made of D-Particles rampaged while trying to dig in the large mouth.
The Garm seemed surprised by this. It shook its head and tried to spit out the thing that was going rampant in its mouth. However, the magic-made ladle didn't go out of its mouth, so it bit down on it.
The angry Garm glared at Yukari with a frightening expression. Chika thought it was her chance. She activated SeventhHighBlade towards the Garm.
