Made in Abyss Chapter 046

Synopsis
Riko, about to choose to give up half her internal organs in exchange for Nanachi, is stopped by Majikajya who says "Lose anything and it's over." Then Riko is pulled out of Belafu's hut and a "summoning" occurs in which a creature that has been to the village of Ilblu before appears and terrorizes the village. Riko sees it head towards the jeweler's and goes to collect Prushka in her embellished whistle form before the shop is destroyed. Juroimo, one of the three sages, decides that the creature is tough enough that he should get involved in the fight. Riko then becomes worried about the village after the narehate from the market, including Moogie, go to protect the it from the creature. Riko formulates a plan, after getting an estimate on the value on the creature, to defeat it and get Nanachi back.

Riko enacts her plan to kill the creature, later named an Oogasumi, with good success. She uses her knowledge of the Ilblu language to command the citizens within the village to trap the Oogasumi using some sort of malleable, mist-like reflective surface and a large net, and then severing it's vitals with spears. While explaining to Moogie her plan after the Oogasumi was captured it erupted in one last stand, attempting to capture narehate like Maaa, who were standing nearby. "Prushka" tells Riko to use her, and once she does, Reg appears and stops the Oogasumi, saving her, Maaa and the other narehate that had been captured. The chapter ends with Reg telling Riko to "give him his next order."
