As soon as we get back to the pier, Mia asks the kids some questions.

We need to hear a little more about the current situation.

In the meantime, I descend from the back of the Centaur Night and guard my surroundings.

So this place is hard to protect......

Meetings in a white room tend to blur my perception of these waiting places.

"Do you want to move somewhere inside the building? Like a sturdy building..."

Then it reminds me of the Giants' power.

There's no such thing as a building that can withstand that stupid power.

"Anywhere, let's go into a discreet building. Before the enemy finds us..."

"Found you, Lord."

The Centaur Night told him, and he did not wait for my command to fire an arrow.

Hobgoblins fall in the shade about twenty meters away.

When he sees his people killed, the three remaining flee to many.

Wow, it's well controlled.

These guys, they're scouts.

I can't help it, I'm trying to bring a report to the main unit.

What do we do, should we follow?

I even got a little lost......

"You don't have to chase me. Let's get moving."

That's what I tell you.

It's a decision that I'd rather just hide in the meantime than eat time in pursuit.

It also considers the possibility that the fleeing Hobgoblins are trapping ahead of the escape route.

Take the kids into a two-story house a little further away.

The decision was that the entrance and exit were on the table and behind.

You can also use your hand of flying magically out of the attic.

Mia asked the kids a lot, and here's what she found out:

-The name of this town is Hesh Resh Nash. This is the same thing I heard in the white room.

-The monsters' army is called the Demon King's Army. Isn't that the king of monsters to the question of what a demon king is? and was answered in a questionable form. I mean, I guess I don't know him very well. Whether there is a translation error or not, it is a subtle point.

-They don't know much about this country, about the world. Speaking of which, he doesn't even go to school. I don't know. Well, yeah.

-The past year or so, he says, has changed everything. The price of supplies went up because one came and went less, and there were fewer caravans. More monsters. And finally, a bunch of monsters attacked this town. I see, this world, you mean it wasn't in this state from the beginning.

-About twenty of the soldiers in this town remained yesterday. The rest is gone with the lord. A commander of the remaining soldier explained that the lord would strike out and intercept the monster. Then came a group of monsters. The people of the town realized that they had been humiliated.

-The soldiers left in town appear to be from factions that were kept away from their lords. Well, yeah. The captain, by the way, appears to have died in battle in an offensive battle over the wall. You don't think anyone's in command right now? Well, even if you were there, it wouldn't do you any good. So, the children overheard the captain's death and one of the demoralized soldiers leaking about the lord's maneuver.

· Parents of the children say they are already dead in battle. So we didn't talk to other adults and tried to escape just ourselves. But there were already hobgoblins all over town. If Mia didn't expose them, who happened to want to go through, she would have been killed.

-The Lords' Mansion is a simple fortress in the town, so all the remaining residents are gathered there. Remaining in town, because there were a significant number of people who fled town when they saw a group of monsters. No one knows what happened to them.

-Not more than a hundred residents remain in the Lords' mansion right now. Most of them are women and children, and old men. Because the man who can move was driven out into battle to protect the town. These are the extraordinary soldiers that I saw during a crow reconnaissance, with inconsistent equipment. That's how the water increased, and a hundred men and a little army were raised... and wiped out.

Is it something like this?

I shift my gaze to the watch. [M]

An hour and twenty minutes had already passed since the transfer from the cave to the region.

Eighty minutes yet, should I say?

Forty minutes to go, even if you call reinforcements with summoning magic.

Until then, the lord's mansion will not be preserved.

Then there will be a flood operation by then.

Even if we use deacons and maids to help the residents, we're going to need to do something about the monsters approaching the lord's mansion.

In time, fly away from the sky.

The monsters are swallowed by turbulence, and the protagonists survive.

If it works, we're talking about.

In the first place, we have to convince the residents.

The kids called me a "monster."

I'm still a little freaked out.

As for having a soldier in the lord's mansion, if I could talk to that soldier... I wonder if I could, hmm.

No, I just can't help thinking about it.

While this is happening, the monsters should be marching towards the back of town.

No matter how robust the protection of the mansion is, there won't be a single one in front of the giant who even broke the town's outer walls.

Release the crow for reconnaissance and make sure there is no hobgoblin outside to jump all together.

Since the fly is already out, Wind Elemental scouts the perimeter to make sure there are no enemies to proceed.

Still, an encounter with a hobgoblin flooded with towns was inevitable.

Inevitably, fight twice or so.

Defeat five Hobgoblins in total, and Mia will level up once.

Skill points are kept warm and returned immediately to their original location.

Mia: Level 18 Earth Magic 4/Wind Magic 6 Skill Points 5

Fortunately, zero hobgoblins escaped in these two encounters.

Thanks to Centaur Snight for packing the distance all at once, it is very helpful.

He, the arms of swords and bows are truly amazing, but more importantly, manoeuvre is the greatest weapon.

That's it, all five minutes to proceed with caution.

A wide mansion wall that exists slightly more east of the town centre appears in front of you.

Most importantly, the wall had already collapsed.

If you peek inside, two of the first giants are attacking a soldier who survived in the mansion's garden.

Fortunately, he doesn't look like a hobgoblin.

Is this... a chance?

"Let's Retain"

"Mm-hmm. I got it."

Leave the perimeter alert to the two wind elementals.

I had a haste on Centaur Night.

"I asked for it."

"Let it be left to you, Lord"

A centaur snight advances into a giant who has just torn a soldier's body in two.

Almost at the same time, Mia unleashes magic.

"Stone Bind"

An integral giant's leg is tied to a stoning stone laid in the garden.

In the meantime, Centaur snight comes into contact with another whole.

Lance's tip pierces Giant's ankle deeply.

Giant raises his distressed voice and waves around in a mess.

But already at this time, Centaur Snight is leaving quickly.

Around the other side, another blow.

Giant breaks his knee disappointingly.

On its neck, from a sharp protrusion, Lance's blow pierces it.

It was definitely fatal.

Though it has the effect of haste and other grant magic, it butchers away the giant with an overwhelming difference.

So, another damned giant growls.

Stuff the distance from Centaur's Night while being forced to put it down and drag the stone.

Centaur Snight hasn't pulled Lance out of the one-eyed giant yet.

"Mia, cover"

"Mm. Lightning Arrow"

Six arrows of thunder are sucked into Giant's body.

Giant's whole body cramps.

For a moment there seems to be a tingle in the strong pain.

That moment was enough.

Centaur Snight pulls Lance out of the giant's corpse and takes a distance once.

Giant tries to chase him, but before that, the Centaur Knight rampage begins.

My distance shrinks and crosses at once.

Giant falls to the ground holding down Lance's stabbed knee.

Centaur Snight turned back, jumped on the back of a lying giant and struck him with a sword in the neck muscle.

Giant screams the Terminator.

It was the end of the fight.

Much better.

Wind Elemental returns to me, observing the surroundings from the top of a nearby building.

"The two remaining giants will come"

"What does Hobgoblin look like?"

"Apparently it was scattered around. A captain is gathering his men two blocks down the street."

Oh, well.

To our enemies, we are unidentified opponents who should even mow the giant.

Gather your troops and hit us in an organized manner.

But Giant doesn't think that far.

I guess they're not perfectly collaborative.

This is a chance.

"Finish two giants first. Wind Elemental will give you a signal when Hobgoblin arrives."

and the movement of those two giants stops.

According to Wind Elemental, Maggie, who was by the captain Hobgoblin, somehow exercised his magic.

"Probably, Whisper Sound"

Mia said.

Whisper Sound is Wind Magic Rank 3.

The magic of delivering words to a remote opponent......

I see, a very convenient means of communication for the military?

I can use it like a cell phone.

So, did you tell Giant the captain's orders this time?

That's awesome...

"Cuz, wow, that sucks. What do we do?"

"I know. Mia, take the kids, find someone you can negotiate with, whether you're a soldier or a resident compiler, anyway."

Worst case scenario, they might want to abandon us and just run away.

As much as I think so, this Hobgoblin army is... dangerous.

"You convince me."

Mia hesitated a little and then nodded with a "n" look.

With the children, he walks into the property of the lord's mansion with his bare feet.

Now, when this happens......

I'm the only one who needs a little time, I guess.
