Once we flew, we made it look like we were headed for the Empire. We went all the way around and then headed to the mainland of Hilagis.

"So where should I go?

Lilia's questioning is also best. It's the usual thing to just hit the go, but this time it's terrible to put a wheel on it. I don't even know where I'm going because I popped up all of a sudden.

"You need an operational meeting. Just keep flying."

Instruct Lilia to fly a critical position that can capture military movements with detection. So if you fly low, you shouldn't have to worry about being seen from the ground. If an army reconnaissance goes out on the woods, it will be easy to find, but it can only be considered acceptable compared to the risk of going out of detection.

With the complex terrain of mountainous valleys with lots of trees, streets can hardly be seen from the sky, and if they fly appropriately, they're likely to get lost soon.

"I want to be as sneaky as possible, but let's try to destroy the demons first"

Find and defeat Oak King. Then the miscellaneous fish also perish.

"We need to find an army advance first," Ellie said.

"Right. If we find him, can we put me or Tirica's subpoena on surveillance?

My owl or tirica taka wouldn't be that noticeable, and worst of all, even if we missed the oak king and the advance team hit, we'd be able to intervene before it's all gone.

Is it still a little over an hour since the advance party left? Shouldn't have gone that far yet.

Sounds like there are no demons yet just around the corner from the fort. According to information Anne and Tirica have picked up, there was a small fort about five or six hours down the street, and that was the war zone.

Will the fly arrive in half an hour?

As soon as he was searching through my detection while listening for information, he found a unit that would be at the head of the army. I don't have much time to talk to you.

"Probably leading the way there. Tirica, please."

Tirica unleashed the Summoner (Taka) into the sky and decided to move on further. The Hilagis mainland was talking about being dangerous as well as demonic, but so far there is no such thing as demons, whereas there is usually no sign of animals anywhere.

"So if there's a demon, like always?

Ellie asks.

"Right..."

If you are hunting the usual enemy, take a Preemptive Attack as soon as you find it. The opponent is large enough for the army to devastate, but there's no reason to think it's unscrupulous, and if it doesn't seem possible, you can just run away.

"Yeah, let's go as usual"

As usual, there is no need to form or collaborate or consult again.

I overtook the troops so I changed my flight route to near the street. The danger of being seen has increased, but the problem is that nobody knows the way in the first place.

"Master Masaru, it's Harpy. Number is… eight."

It didn't take anything to detect, and Satie's report came as soon as I got worried about getting lost. I can see something quite distant like a bean grain when I check with the eagle's eye. It just looks like a bean grain when you look at it, but if Satie is called a harpy, you can't go wrong.

"Once you get down. Get your bow ready."

Get down in the woods and get the avant-garde bow set out of the item box. They were all real-time gear, including Anne and Tirica, but they weren't originally scheduled for hunting today, and I just didn't have a bow that was troublesome to carry around. Finally, recheck each person's gear.

"Fly the ground along the streets until you get close. Let's make an ambush."

"Yeah, it's a bad idea not to get away with it or be called in for company."

Fly again. Follow the streets to the ground, keeping the harpies within detection range.

"Prepare the bow. Lilia, get up there on the signal."

The target harpy was followed by many demonic reactions. Pretty...... no, that's so much. Do you want to abort the attack? But it sucks to be found hesitant here, and there's no reason to change the policy of seeing enemies special here. No matter how it moves, being jumped around by a harpy is very intrusive.

"Now!

About eight of them. There are five archers here. When Harpy noticed, five fell, and the other three quickly cleaned up.

Follow the fallen harpy and stop and retrieve again into the woods. Okay, here we go.

"Gentlemen, I have good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear from?

Say Harpy in an easy-going condition while putting him in the item box.

"Well, let's hear it from the good news," Ellie said.

"The main team of demons is close. That's quite a few, too. You can earn as much experience as you want."

"So what's wrong with that?," said Ann.

"The last Harpy scream I defeated probably revealed our existence. The demons are moving."

The demons appear to be pervasive along the streets. Signs that it moved simultaneously.

"Oh, I'm fine. There's still some distance, and I don't think we know where we are."

I say to reassure Anne that she looks slightly flimsy.

"So let's reduce the opponent as much as possible with the first blow"

"So Massal does it?

"I've been on a level lately, and I can stay behind. Let Anne, Tirica and Luciana do it at first."

Together, these three are users of water magic. Have that maximum spell unleashed in three directions and exterminate the wide area.

"All right, then let's go"

Have them slowly go up into the woods on the fly.

"The timing doesn't have to be so good, so let it go with everything you can. Each target position is..."

Luciana started the chant at my behest. Fast chanting is behind us, although only new arrivals rushed water magic to level 5.

Continuing, Tirica, Ann also went into chanting.

"Noticed"

It's a powerful magic chant. If you have magic sensing, you can locate it immediately. There are many demonic roars rising from the surrounding woods.

"It's okay. Keep chanting. Avant-garde, defeat the one who comes near you with a bow."

One herd of flying harpies is about to push over like Yunxia. But the distance is still far. Lucky, no. Would it be bad luck? Harpy, who was in the near field, is being shot through one after the other with the arrows of the Saties and falling. It looks like the demons on earth are on their way too, but of course we can't make it.

Soon the chant will be over...

[Permafrost (Eternal Blizzard)]

[Permafrost (Eternal Blizzard)]

[Permafrost (Eternal Blizzard)]

At that moment, vision stained white and everything froze. The harpies, who seemed to fill the sky, fell one after the other, hitting and shattering the pacifiers and the frozen trees.

Cold air pushed over a little late.

"Well done. All enemies in the vicinity have been destroyed."

Sign detection gradually weakens the response when the demon is defeated normally, but permanent frozen soil causes the reaction to disappear immediately. Immediate death.

"We'll do the next one while the demons get confused."

We proceeded through the cold, air-covered woods and blew the rest of the demons with the wind magic of Lilia and Ellie. So it looks like the demons that were nearby have almost been wiped out.

But I saw a small fort ahead of me. There's also a lot of demons out there. Were you going to sandwich the troops going down the street from the fort and the three directions on both sides?

"I'll do that over there. Down the street, please."

The fort wants to be a base. Then the permanent frozen soil will be frozen and shattered corpses will roll, and you won't be allowed in for a while until the freeze is lifted. The wind system also seems to have trouble cleaning afterwards.

You can do it with a lightning system and recover the material, but the fort is a little small as it is now. Wouldn't it be worth a fortune to blow up all the surrounding woods in Meteo?

The demons of the fort are finally figuring out what's going on, too. They're starting to move. I don't have time to slow down.

As soon as I got off the ground, [Meteo] began chanting - widening the range and keeping the power intact - activated.

Countless fireballs are born in the sky and poured down on the ground, causing a huge explosion. A blast comes but is guarded by an air shield. Smoke will soon rise and the area will be full of burnt smells. Harpy seems to have gotten quite involved as well, but luckily he seems to have survived. There's still that number there to detect.

"When the smoke clears, extinguish the fire and create a new base here. Avant-garde, alert and eliminate the surviving harpies."

Nearby enemies were annihilated with an obvious metheo, but there are still quite a few demonic reactions in the distance. What a waste of time waiting? Shall I sprinkle the water already?

"I don't want to go too far and open up the distance, so I'm going to keep us here until the army arrives, what do you think?

If it's base defense, the avant-garde bow lives. I earn my experience with the demons that come by.

"Wouldn't that be okay?," Ellie agrees.

"Then you'll also call the Orange Demon Leader?

"Right..."

If it's base defense, it's better to have numbers. It won't be hard to retreat if the walls are in jeopardy, and we can leave the elves to base defense and we can march out and wipe out the demons.

"Please, Ellie. First, bring me as many as you can in a single gate."

As soon as Ellie nodded, she moved in a metastasis. With Level 4 gate magic, there are a limit of 10 people who can travel. We need to apply space magic if we want to increase transport. For example, as I understand fire and dirt and use a variety of original magic, I need to understand what space is in the first place to apply space magic.

Ellie is apparently understanding the space. He reported the other day that the gate's transport capacity had more than doubled. Not far away, he said he might be able to do an item box that can't afford the metastasis I'm using.

Well, let's put out the fort fire while we wait. A good number of surviving harpies seem to be getting shot down or running.

"Master Masal, there's still something in the fort"

Satti released her bow without waiting for my reply. I don't see it in smoke, but it must have hit me. The painful and angry scream of gooooooooooooooooooooooooooo sounds.

No way. Survive on the ground? Can you stand my Meteo?

"Coming!

Sati shouts as she releases an arrow. I was alarmed to think that the sign perception reaction was just harpy over the sky. Probably oak king. If they don't eat a direct hit even with Meteo, they'll endure it.

"Chant! You don't have to aim. Shoot him properly! The avant-garde is a razor! We're gonna keep this place alive!

That sucks. I can't evacuate into the sky because I don't know when Ellie will be back at the gate. We have no choice but to intercept here.

Will and Syrah, Miriam dumped her bow and set up her sword and shield. Satti keeps letting the arrows go.

The magic of finishing the chant jumped into the smoke, and some showed signs of a hit. Me, too.

"Blow it up! [Firestorm]!"

wild forward as a giant flaming storm licks.

"The rear guard evacuate into the sky and cover!

A dozen oak kings came out of the smoke and my firestorm came out in front of me. There are still harpy survivors in the sky, but it would be better than oak king.

Magic...... no this is a sword. If it's magic, I can't stop it for sure. Plus, if it's a riot, I'm afraid of misfiring.

Almost at the same time as I pulled out my sword, Syrah, the avant-garde, clashed decently with Oak King. An unpleasant sound called gushari where metals clash against each other. But it was the oak king who said hello to Grali. Syrah's sword pierces Oak King's belly.

"Don't be alarmed! He's not dead yet!

But I didn't have to worry, Will gave the dying oak king a stop.

Satti...... is flirting with oak kings by jumping inside only the group. Moving around not to be surrounded, he is putting his hands on one and the other, even if he can't be defeated. That's going to get in the way of rejecting me when I go to help.

"Miriam, stay with me."

"Yes, Master Masal"

Though Miriam took swordsmanship level 5 and was taught by Kensei, he is of low level and inexperienced. He looks fine so far, but I don't know how much he can move in action.

A few more came towards Syrah. Will is dealing with one too and can't afford it. Positioned to protect Syrah's side, the enemy at the front is left to Syrah, who stops him with an air hammer on one of the oak kings he's headed for. Another attack was carried out, cutting deep into the hanging at the counter.

Oak King, who ate the air hammer, has been dropped in the neck by Miriam, who was traveling at some point.

Oak King had already fallen by more than half when he pulled his sword out of the desperate oak king and looked around.

There are three more Saties. There are three of us left.

The battle was over when he jerked off the coming oak king attack, slashed his torso into a single letter and checked his surroundings again.

Exhale furiously. I could win lighter than I thought. He won't be here anymore, will he? There are no more reactions to detection, and the Saties continue to be vigilant around us.

Magic Reaction. Looks like Ellie brought the Elves back at the gate. Lilia, who had been evacuated, also came down.

"That took a while to get 100 people together... Orc? There was a fight!?

Ellie looks surprised when she looks around as she pulls out a herd of elves.

"Probably an example oak king."

"It was suddenly attacked, but it wasn't particularly dangerous."

"Right. It was so much easier than doing it with Kensei and those dragon-class guys."

I could afford to fight thanks to my training, and I felt a lot weaker than the oak king I fought last time.

"Perhaps these guys are made of something."

"Is it made up?," said Satti.

"Yes, I think Orcs will also earn EXP and rank up in the King so that we can earn EXP and grow"

You must have earned lots of experience in the battle that the Hilagis destroyed earlier. That's why we had so many oak kings, but then as an oak king, it's a new America, a chick. Even if we have enough toughness to withstand Meteo, we still don't have enough combat experience to fight us after Kensei's training.

Plus, I ate Meteo with a fire storm and maybe it was pretty damaging. From the number of people that came out, it looks like half of them could have been defeated by Meteo.

"Fair enough. Let's get to work."

"All right. Well, let's start by splitting it up, watering it down and putting out the fire."

New demons are looming from the Hiragis side. I made it even worse. Build a powerful fort to intercept.

■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■

"There, what are you stopping for!

During the march, a veteran-like soldier yelled at a recruit who stopped off the road.

"Excuse me. I've been wondering about the same taka since earlier..."

When the veteran soldier looked up, one taka maintained its path all the way to keeping the troops in sight.

"Is that waiting for us to die?

The recruit says in a crying voice.

"That kind of taco doesn't target corpse meat. Rather, that's an auspicious sign, that's a sign of good luck. Taka has good eyes and hates empty demons. We won't be attacked from the sky with that."

At least from the sky. But to that extent, there is no rest, yes, the veteran soldier thought, but dare not speak up.

He yelled at me again to join his unit without slapping me more in vain than that, and the veteran soldier noticed the recruit's identity. You're too young to be equipped. Probably one of the rapidly gathered volunteers. Wherever your unit is, it's possible that your unit doesn't even exist. Otherwise I'm not walking alone out of line here.

"Lucky... can we survive?

"I don't know. You keep an eye on that taka for a while."

"Yes."

You'll get some rest if you ever do.

"We're moving on. You, what's your name?

At first the veteran soldier thought it would be some kind of whim, but that taka comes after an hour or two about the troops. Recruits speak of anxiety when they lose sight of Taka, and when they confirm it again, they get a relief look, but the inside of a veteran soldier was nowhere near dealing with it. He's definitely approaching the place of death where he should have escaped once, step by step. There was no sign of a demon around or he was pointing his nerves a lot.

But not so long ago, veteran soldiers see a wall of unnatural destruction that can't exist.

"That's an elf! We're on our side!

That's what I heard from the head of the unit.

"You've reached the fort safely, Sempai! I knew that taka brought me luck!

Taka swirled over the fort as if to answer it.

You can't be in an odd taka elf...... did that taka really bring you luck? The veteran soldier answered the recruit, who was innocently happy, wondering if that was the case.

"I think so."

Anyway, Taka, with the help of a magically good Elf troop, I and this guy could possibly survive, with that slight hope in my chest.
