Now, I just have to wait until the hero steps on my trap . . . . .
. . . Or that was the case but the hero just doesn’t seem to be moving . Instead, he held his battle axe and began to chant .
“HAAA! [Vacume Slash]!”
The hero shook the ground once again, removing the grass and leaving a bare path where he was able to safely travel . The hero held the old man tightly while begging to walk away .
This is bad . . . He’s gonna escape! . . . What can I do in this situation . . .
———I can confront him directly!
By looking at the hero’s HP display, I noticed his health was (3500/7530), meaning all I need to do is to get him to lose 1000 more health and his health will reach into the yellow health area .
This means now is a good time to attack! I still have 1800 Trap points and there shouldn’t be any problems reducing the hero’s health .
After making my decision, I began to move towards where the hero is with my vines .
I moved in front of the hero, and released my contraction skill, revealing my actual form .
“W, What is this plant thing?”
The hero stopped right in his tracks and stared at my 2 meters high and 5 meters wide body .
“This! . . . This plant! . . . But there was no sign of any plant monsters! . . . ! Perhaps the others were devoured by this? . . . ”
I moved the old man and made him wrap himself around the hero, restricting his movements .
“G, Gramps! what are you doing?”
Alright then shall I start my attack? My cursor has finally locked onto the hero .
Lets dance hero! Let’s have a splendid dance!
[capture] [capture] [capture]!
“KUH!, these vines! what the hell are they? I’m losing health from them!”
The hero gets enraged, swiftly removing the vines attacking him with his battle axe .
<hero>(HP3000/7530)</hero>
Not yet, I can’t eat him yet, I need to reduce his health more! I need to attack him with stronger attacks!
[capture] [capture] [capture] !
The hero swiftly cuts the vines with his battle axe like last time, however, he was not able to slash them all .
“Don’t look down on me!”
The hero swung at the vines vigorously . . . but it was already too late .
Looking at his health display, the hero’s health was (2500/7530) . It was already yellow . No matter how strong the hero was, nothing is able to live after I use my devour skill . He has no choice but to bow down to the mysterious force of this skill .
Alright, then it’s about time . . .
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
I am unable to use my devour skill .
Just what is going on?
I immediately looked at the help section for the devour skill in my display .
{Devour:
This skill is able to be used on preys that are lower level than you after reducing their health to 1/3 or less,
This skill is able to be used on preys that are higher level than you after reducing their health to 1/10 or less,
This skill is able to be used on preys that are 1/5th of your level as is without reducing their health . }
——I need to reduce my preys health to 1/10th if they are higher level than me . . .
No way! . . . why? . . .
I know the hero is higher level than me but this is the first time I’ve heard of this condition before!
This is the worst . . . I only have 100 trap points remaining . . . No matter how you think about it I’m done here . . . I really should have read these beforehand to fully understand the limitations of my skill goddammit .
“It stopped its movements . . . Nows my chance! Move! Gramps!”
The hero shakes off the old man like he’s nothing and swung his battle axe towards me, scraping off some leaves off me .
<man>(Hp:3750/4000)</man>
This is the first time I’ve received damage after reincarnating into a man-eating plant . I don’t feel any pain but if my health reaches zero, I’m pretty sure I know what is going to happen .
The hero continues to launch his violent attacks at me .
“Take this!”
I’m in a sticky situation here and I really don’t have any way get out .
. . . . . Wait a minute, What is this? I’m recovering Trap Points while receiving damage from the hero?
<man>(HP1200/4000:TP 2000/2000)</man>
My trap points have fully recovered from all the damage I was receiving .
[Gekka Ranbu]
I have no idea what this skill does, but it sounds powerful So I’ll bet my life on this skill to save me .
Suddenly my whole body starts shining with light .
My body fell apart and started to scatter, My petals have also changed into a crescent moon shape and started to spin like a tornado, attacking the hero .
The remaining leaves reconstructed to my former human body . I’m not dressed but strangely I don’t feel embarrassed .
I am watching the moon petals dance in the air, It truly is a breathtaking scene that shines brightly . However, The scene did not last long, as it immediately started its attack towards the hero .
My Trap Points steadily decrease while the hero was being attacked by my tornado .
“GAHHHHHH!”
The beautiful flower dance has destroyed the hero’s battle axe and armor and the hero’s health fell to 400/7530, causing him to fall towards the ground .
My trap points have been depleting causing the attack to stop and return me to my original man-eating flower appearance .
Finally, my long-awaited devour skill has finally appeared .
Its . . . My win . . .
———Well then . . .
T i m e T o D i g I n !
———Chomp!
His body was very strong and muscular and was very chewy despite being carved by the flower petals from before . It still tastes like something else was mixed into it though . . .
This taste . . . is the taste of the blood of demons . . . He might have been half-demon . . . That explains his ridiculous strength .
I’m very happy that I finally got to eat the hero that humiliated me . I will duplicate him later and make him eat the same bug he made me eat later .
