Monster Girl Ranching in Another World

I jumped in the air, and a massive centipede with a black carapace passed under me, and I came down to land on its back. I ducked down as a giant green worm passed over the top of the giant centipede and me, but I jumped off before it could crash down.

The giant worm crashed down on the centipede, crushing it and causing it to scream out as it died. I kept running, but the loose sand was making it hard to get any speed along with trying to dodge the long bodies monsters.

"It is only a matter of time until one of my pets gets you!" Scar roared from behind me, but I had no part in name-calling.

I was trying to not get eaten by the giant creatures that seemed to endlessly spawn out of the sands. It was all I could do to dodge them and keep them at a distance, but it was getting harder.

[two kilometers left, you can do this! Three-fifths of the way there, so just keep pushing!] Harold cheered me on, and then I rolled under another jumping strike, getting back up to my feet right after.

Two more green worms looked like they were going to try to collide and sandwich me between them. I jumped, flying into the air over them, and there was an explosion of ichor below me.

The world was going crazy around me, but there seemed to be a limit to which the giant monsters could be pushed. Fewer creatures were rising back out of the sand, and they seemed to be acting less aggressive now.

I could no longer hear the yelling from Scar as I closed the distance to the next ring.

The moment I got within fifty feet of the ring, Scar burst up from the sand. The massive golden wrecking ball came stabbing at me, and I dove over to the side.

"You think that I will let you get away that easily? I am going to kill you and make sure that you never get my precious Virgo!" Scar roared as I rolled with hot sand peppering around me.

"You know that she doesn't like you, right? Why do you want to stay under this faceless monster's control? If you come back and stop acting like a spoiled child now, I will promise to bring you all sorts of goodies to TRY, and woah. I repeat nothing more than trying with the girls. Then you can try to find your own group of girls," I said calmly as I got up, brushing the sand off me.

"And what if I resist? What will you do? You think that you can…." Scar started to say but paused as I bent down.

I picked up a rock from the sand about fist size and straight back up. I gave Scar a knowing look as I tossed the rock up in the air meaningfully, and he seemed to understand what I was getting at.

"HEY! PUT THE ROCK DOWN!" Scar roared as he started to back up while also using his claws to protect his soft human body.

"Listen, the bugs don't want this, and you don't want to die, or whatever will happen if I kill you here. You have two choices, but there is only one sure answer. The other is a question of how many rocks will I need to hit you?"

At the same time as I finished speaking, I threw the rock, and the air cracked as the rock flew past Scars head. The massive golden scorpion sidestepped in reaction, and I bent down and grabbed another rock.

"Wait, Wait, Wait! Fine! What do you want?!" Scar shrieked, and I rolled my eyes.

"For you to get out of the way and stay there! Now, or I am going to take you apart and craft a weapon to fight this faceless psycho! Scoot!" I growled, raising my rock in a threatening gesture.

Scar shrank back and then borrowed into the sand, and I turned around with a sigh. I looked over the desert sands that were now all yellow again; all the dead had been dragged under with the sand churned.

The desert was a good place for creatures like this, but they would just become nuisances unless they were controlled. I would have to look into them more when I was on the boat.

For now, I was trying to spot Carnage, and it didn't take that long. The dark red robes stood out a lot on the bright golden yellow sand.

I could see that the creature looked very calm as it walked across the sand directly towards me. Something seemed different and less maniacal about the red-robed monster.

[He has most definitely lost it, and that will make him much more dangerous and focused. I suggest you try and keep your distance; getting close now won't be a good approach.] Libra explained, and I nodded to myself and turned back around to face the next ring.

I started to run and picked up speed as I approached the next Astral Orichalcum Ring.

[If the rings are following their chart order, Sagittarius should be next, and that is the centaur archer, I think. The next place should be some kind of wooded place, but Libra should know more.] Harold told me as I got closer to the Teal and pulsing gold ring.

[Hero is correct, and Sagittarius will more than likely ignore you, but his children are all quite varied and strange. The one thing they all share in common with their father has a single innate talent that they can do perfectly. Some are kind, while others are mean or bully with their superiority.] Libra explained, but she seemed on edge about it.

I reached my jump point about five feet before the ring, vaulting up in a high arch. It looked like I was about to smash into a mirror, but then I was hit with an incredibly chilled feeling as I passed through.
