Paddington |
"Hwa whawha~♪ I've never had freshly roasted Precious mushrooms before~♪ I can eat them as is or add seasoning to them~" |
Ohana |
"Ufufu, mushrooms eaten outside are an entirely new realm, aren't they?" |
Paddington |
"Yes! I can't taste them in a mansion or a fine dining restaurant! I'm so glad I joined the SSS!" |
Paddington |
"I enjoy eating mushrooms outside heartily! It's the best!" |
Ohana |
"Ara ara~, the Divine Child of St. Iris mustn't talk like that. Here, wipe the sides of your mouth." |
Finchley |
"Hey Queensway." |
Queensway |
"Yes? What is it?" |
Finchley |
"What do you think?" |
Queensway |
"You mean, the taste of Precious mushrooms? I think they're very tasty." |
Finchley |
"No, not that. I'm talking about why we're happily roasting mushrooms in a place like this." |
Queensway |
"I mean, isn't this all about teaching us the best part of mushroom hunting?" |
Finchley |
"Of course not, this is Miss Ohana we're talking about. There must be some other reason." |
Queensway |
"What other reasons, like what?" |
Finchley |
"Like..." |
Finchley |
"Getting us off our guard and trapping us inside this cave, for example?" |
Queensway |
"That's just way too Spartan-like for training, just who do you think Ohana is!?" |
Finchley |
"But Ohana said it herself, 'A break for a while'. Meaning our mushroom hunt is not over yet." |
Queensway |
"That doesn't mean she's going to trap us inside a cave. I think Instructor Finchley is a little too scared of Miss Ohana." |
Finchley |
"That's the kind of training I had when I was a student..." |
Queensway |
"That was a long time ago, wasn't it? She's the matron now, Ohana, everyone's matron, remember? She wouldn't intentionally put students and her younger colleagues in danger." |
Finchley |
"Well, you'll find out once you get Miss Ohana in charge of training you, Queensway hasn't seen what she can really do just yet..." |
Finchley |
"...Hmm?" |
Queensway |
"What's wrong?" |
|
Finchley |
"Ohana, aren't you cooking a little too many mushrooms?" |
Queensway |
"That's because Miss Paddington eats a lot." |
Finchley |
"No, no, just count how many mushroom skewers are there." |
Queensway |
"One, two, three, four, five, six, seven..." |
Queensway |
"S-so many!" |
Queensway |
"Mushrooms on skewers are lined up towards the cave entrance... What's going on? Is this Nishikese sorcery!? It's creeping me out! If Miss Yakutsk saw this, she'll faint!" |
Ohana |
"Ufufu, they sure look good~. A very luxurious mushroom hunt..." |
Queensway |
"Um, Miss Ohana? What's with those evenly arranged bamboo skewers? It looks like some kind of a ritual to me..." |
Ohana |
"A ritual you say? Well, I suppose it's something like that~" |
Queensway |
"The ritual of arranging bamboo-skewered mushrooms... Nishikese culture sure is very deep." |
Ohana |
"Don't worry. We'll be sure to enjoy them deliciously later♪" |
Finchley |
"By the way, what is this ritual and what effect does it have?" |
Ohana |
"This is~, this summons big, big mushrooms." |
Finchley |
"B-Big big mushrooms...?" |
Queensway |
"Are you saying that by performing this ritual, it will grow big big mushrooms?" |
Ohana |
"Not growing, more like they'll be walking towards us~" |
Finchley |
"Walking, the mushrooms walk?" |
Queensway |
"I don't know. It's possible that it's a metaphor for something..." |
Queensway |
"Um, Miss Ohana? What do you mean when you say a mushroom walks towards us? I feel like if it's walking, it's not really a mushroom anymore..." |
Ohana |
"There are many things in this world that are out of the ordinary. There might even be mushrooms that walk and speak. You can't defeat a stronger enemy if you can't think out of your box." |
Finchley |
"T-That's right Queensway, Ohana is correct." |
Queensway |
"What, that's no fair, Instructor Finchley..." |
Ohana |
"I think there is a mastermind behind this incident. The creator of the poisonous mushrooms that changes their shape is also the source of the Phantom Mist. There must be a mushroom-san that can be called the master of this cave." |
Queensway |
"The master of this cave..." |
Finchley |
"Right! So that master's the one spreading the spores!" |
Ohana |
"That's right. And it is probably the Phantom Mist that gave birth to this master. If you defeat the master, the Phantom Mist that gave birth to it will also disappear. That's why I'm luring the master out like this♪" |
Ohana |
"The smell of the delicious mushrooms should attract the bad mushrooms to show themselves. Now~ now, flutter flutter flutter~♪" |
Queensway |
"So it's not a ritual, just luring it in with the smell of the Precious Mushrooms. But if that master is a mushroom, why would it be lured by the smell of mushrooms?" |
Finchley |
"No, I don't know. But I trust what Miss Ohana says." |
Queensway |
"Then I also believe Instructor Finchley." |
Ohana |
"Flutter flutter flutter~♪ Flutter flutter flutter~♪" |
Queensway |
"......" |
Finchley |
"......" |
Ohana |
"Flutter flutter flutter~♪" |
Queensway |
"......" |
Finchley |
"......" |
Ohana |
"Well? Your friends are impaled and grilled you know~?" |
Queensway & Finchley |
(So that's what it was all about!) |
Queensway |
"N-No way..." |
Ohana |
"Ufufu, looks like we have something right into the trap~" |
Queensway |
"THAT'S A REALLY BIG MUSHROOM COMING!" |
Finchley |
"So that's the master then? Sure looks pretty tasty." |
Ohana |
"I really think you shouldn't eat that one, you know~?" |
Super Big Mushroom |
"Mush! MUUUUSH!" |
Super Big Mushroom |
"Mush mush mush..." |
Super Big Mushroom |
"MUSH & KICK!" |
Queensway |
"Whoa! It's trying to kick us!" |
Finchley |
"It's quicker than it looks." |
Ohana |
"We have no shortage of opponents. Let us move quick. Be careful not to get hit by its spores." |
