My Refrigerator Turned Into A Dungeon

Chapter 127:

The Laws Of The World

Borrowing the power of the salt spirits, I transformed into a figure adorned in a shining white sacred salt robe and scattered the zombies with a kick.

However

(Hmm, they still don't disappear as smoke. Just who are these guys?)

I crouch beside the defeated zombies and carefully observe, but despite being monsters, they neither vanish into smoke nor drop a single magic stone.

(Could it be in dungeons, monsters turn into smoke due to dungeon influence, and this doesn't apply to monsters that manifest on the surface?)

"Zukki-san, are you okay?"

[[[Gyuuu! Gyuuu! Gyuuu! Gyuuu! Gyuuu! Gyuuu!]]]

As I lifted my face to respond to Kato, everyone's communication devices simultaneously emitted sounds and vibrations. And, it was the familiar alert tone for an emergency earthquake report.

"Tell me, Kato, what does it say happened!?"

"W-Well um, i-it says monsters have come out from the dungeon, so we're advised not to go outside!"

Since dungeons appeared, emergency earthquake reports have also been used for dungeon-related incidents.

"What the heck! So this isn't just happening here!?"

"It seems that way!"

(What a situation. But if that's the case, I can't stay here. I need to hurry to the university where Ruu and the others are!)

"Eh? Where are you suddenly going, Zukki-san!?"

As I tried to dash away, Kato hurriedly called out to stop me.

"There's somewhere I need to go in a hurry!"

"But wait! What should we do if Zukki-san is gone!?"

"Mm, mm"

I want to tell the guys to protect themselves, but there's also a girl like Goto-chan without any combat abilities. Hmm, I can't just leave them here

"All right, then there's no helping it Pixie Five, come forth!"

"""Pipii~!"""

Charging my magic power into 5 silver metal plates, I released them into the airRouge, Azure, Jaune, Veil, Rose. The 5 Pixies appeared.

"""Pipii Pipii Pipii"""

"Wait, wait, wait. You guys! It's not snack time right now Goto-chan!"

"Y-Yes!"

"I'll instruct these kids to protect this place, so please take care of the trouble."

"Eh!?"

"They may be small, but they're quite strong. So keep an eye out to make sure other folks don't bother them. And if these kids get upset. just a bit, let them lick this honey."

"Eh, where did that come from?"

"Anyway, I have to go now. Please take care. Don't forget to rely on Sato and Kato too!"

"Huh!? I don't really understand, but are these tiny kids okay?"

"At least they're several times stronger than you or the zombies. So relax. More importantly, keep quiet for a while. So the monsters won't find you!"

"Oh, Zukki-san! There are still things I want to ask!"

Despite Kato and Sato trying to ask me questions, there was no time to answer. After infusing the Pixies with an extra dose of magic, I quickly headed downstairs.

..

"Hmm, is this really me now?"

Descending to the first floor and attempting to go outside from the building's entrance, my attention was drawn to a large mirror hanging on the wall. Reflected in it was my figure, adorned in a shining white salt armor. My mental image had been projected onto the Bug King Suit. It was like the Bug King Suit turned into individual pieces of armor.

But.

"Something about the white color makes me look incredibly feeble"

When the Bug King Suit is designed in white, it looks like a just-emerged cicada.

"I shouldn't be doing this kind of thing now! I need to hurry. Mm!"

As I tried to jump out of the building and head towards the motorcycle, I saw zombies swarming out from the green area on a distant sidewalk.

"What are those? Well, never mind. Salt Cutter!"

Thin, crescent-shaped salt pieces made of sacred salt attacked the group of zombies stumbling on the sidewalk. Sliced into fragments by the sacred salt, Salt Cutter, the zombies collapsed, emitting white smoke from the cut surfaces.

Checking the spot where the zombies had emerged, it was a subway ventilation opening. However, the heavy concrete cover with iron bars was rolled back.

"What on earth is the reason for this?"

"""Vvvu"""

"Kuh, they're still coming out! In that case Giant Rock Salt Reversal!"

[[[Zudom!]]]

Creating giant rock salt, I completely sealed the ventilation opening. Now, even if the zombies tried to crawl out on the surface, they would touch the sacred salt with its divine power and self-destruct.

Arriving at where I left the motorcycle, I saw Sato and the others looking worriedly at me from the third-floor window. I reassured them with a thumbs-up, and they responded with a thumbs-up or waving hands.

It's okay; the zombies weren't much of a threat. The Pixies would protect them well enough. The issue might be if those capricious girls wandered off somewhere, but I emphasized magic, and Goto-chan had honey, so it should be fine.

[Riiin]

Looking up at the 3rd-floor window, Rouge, with a red ribbon tied around her ankle, flew down to me. I had given them ribbons of different colors corresponding to their names. By the way, it's Rouge who often bites me.

"Pipii"

"Don't worry. I'll be back soon after finishing what I need to do. Take care of everyone for me."

"Pii!"

Responding to Rouge with a thumbs-up as she responded with a victory pose, she kicked her thumb, gaining momentum, and gracefully flew back to the third-floor window. Oh, as expected of Rouge. Is that the secret to moving three times faster?

"Ride on! Wait for me, Ruu, and others! I'm coming to help now!"

An indescribable anxiety about the changed laws of the world.

But now, I have the power to counteract it. A mix of anxiety, impatience, and excitement. Embracing these feelings in my chest, I opened the throttle to the fullest. The motorcycle roared with a rough engine sound through the buildings, and the bike sped away vigorously.
