Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events

A thick conifer, not knowing how many years old the tree will be, thrives in the native forest as if pushing through the tall broadleaves.

In that, hunter-equipped hunters, adventurer-equipped yuki, and demon-king equipped nulls were proceeding in search of prey.

And not five minutes after we started moving...

…………

The hunter quickly found something.

"(Get down!

…………

Yuki and Nuru obey adults to the hunter who gives instructions only with the movement of his mouth.

Apparently, the two of them still didn't see the demon.

"(Big guy)"

"(What's there?

"(Big guy?

"(Oh, ni (...) k (...))"

"" (Meat?

"(No, it's not. It's not meat. It's Nik)"

and a hunter who looks mindful of Nik's pronunciation.

Then she started explaining, with a whisper, what an organism called Nik was like.

"(You know. Nik is the name of a bird demon. of birds that can't fly either, huh)"

"(Are you a bird that can't fly...)"

"(You've never heard of it in our country)"

"(Right...... Then I just want you to know this. They......)"

And it was the moment the hunter tried to say the rest.

Gassa......

Piyo?

A palm-sized bird appeared in front of them in a protective and green colour.

The moment I saw him,

"Found it! ♪ Zusa!

A hunter who shows no stray whatsoever, erases signs from the spot and walks away.

Meanwhile,

"" Huh?

Yuki and Nuru seem to have suddenly solidified into the hunter's behavior when he suddenly turned himself over and fled the little bird.

As a result, they will know the horrors of the little birds… Nik's horrors….

Piyo! Piyo!

Dogowong!!

Dogowong!!

"Gu Hu?!

Doshaaaa!!

Yuki and Nuru are blown away by things like some big force they can't see when they say the little bird just showed them how to peck (if they put on) something on the spot.

They swept through the native woods, knocking down the surrounding trees, the twigs that were stretched there, and the fallen trees, and...

Dogowong!!

Hit a big rock and finally succeed in stopping.

"Kaha!

"So, are you okay?! Sister Null?!

She didn't seem to have done much damage to Yuki, who was cyborghing, and she asked her sister if she was cheaper than she was worried about herself and she was blown away with it.

And Null didn't seem to take as much damage as he thought, either, because he was a demon king gear.

"It's okay. Ains. More than that, be careful! That is... a monster!

She also stood up on the spot as she hit the rock and hurt herself, holding down her left arm.

"But how am I supposed to be careful? There was no sign of an attack, and I don't know how..."

"And anyway, it's dangerous to get into that monster's sight! Hide here in the shade of the trees..."

And it was when Null spoke.

Piyo?

Piyo?

Piyo?

Now three niks appeared.

"Huh, more?!

"To, run away..."

As a result, Yuki and the others are unable to take a decent countermeasure and find themselves in a state of confusion...

Saku, Saku, Saku...!

"Phew... both of you, you were in danger"

It seems that Yuki and the two of them managed to get nothing thanks to the hunters who had erased the signs as usual and were moving behind Nik and stopped their roots in one blow.

"Or, hunter...... thank you"

"Yes, what the hell is Nik?!

"It can be quite difficult to explain exactly what Nik is. I live only in this forest in northern Mid-Eden, a weird bird... well, in a nutshell, a kind of monster, unscrupulous, strong for its size, and... a very tasty bird. For once, there are several kinds... there seems to be a basic type of 'nik' living in this forest."

and a hunter waving a hot valve about Nik.

There were exactly three niks hanging in her hand on the way out of blood right now, and from a glance at them like that, they only looked like little birds... but they seemed so indisputable a monster that they would blow up cyborgs and demon kings.

Hunting for three hunters that will follow.

They walked out again, looking for the next prey, after they had finished draining the blood, Nik, into the bag.

And going on for about 10 minutes...

…………

Looks like the hunter found something this time.

You guessed that, Yuki and Nuru laying low just like you did earlier.

I wonder if something like desperation was hidden from their appearance... because they were in pain.

As a result, Yuki asks the hunter...

"(Is something wrong?

"No, you don't have to hide, you don't have to talk normally, okay?

…………

Apparently, this time, what she found wasn't a monster like Nik......

"It's not a demon. I found a mushroom. It's a kind of kick-ass jellyfish."

"" Kijellyfish?

"Oh. If you put it in soup or something, it's a crunchy, delicious one. The name is certain..."

With that said, the hunter moves his foot over the fallen tree that was in front of him to the other side of it.

Then there's something like tentacles growing in large quantities, something that looks soft... and that's what the hunter calls a kind of kick-ass jellyfish.

After walking to the sight of the object, the hunter mouthed the mushroom's name.

"Oh, yeah, yeah. Invisible Jerry."

…………

The moment I heard that name, Yuki and Null move their eyebrows piquely, and shut up.

Apparently we both have a bad feeling somehow......

In contrast, the hunter began explaining Invisible Jerry as if to pay for those two concerns.

"It's here, cut or cut, it plays right away, so you can either harvest it little by little, or it's a special piece of equipment that's long and wide, and it won't be easy to prune without cutting the stone-piercing part."

With that said, hunters slip daggers against invincible jerry.

Her dagger then buries herself in the Invisible Jerry without any resistance... but that cross section leads quickly, as if nothing had happened.

It doesn't seem special or stiff, but it plays right off the cut side, so it doesn't seem to make much sense to try to cut it.

"That's why. I've only brought daggers this time, so I can only bring back fragments."

And the hunter tried to slip the dagger again... at that time.

"... let's try my sword here"

I said that while Null pulled out a long sword dedicated to the Demon King.

Earlier, when Nik attacked me, it turned out impudent, so I guess you want to show me what you look like here and return the stigma.

"Oh, I don't mind trying..."

Such a hunter who knew she was the Demon King seemed to have decided to retreat to a place where whatever could happen and observe her actions.

Thus began the battle of Null.

"Blame it!

As far as the weight of the sword is concerned, Null gently wielded a long sword dedicated to that demon king long enough to reach his height, and waved it down into the Invisible Jerry.

... but

Prune......

Dogowong!!

The Great Sword, as if there was nothing there, passed the Invisible Jerry and pierced it to the ground.

"Kuh...... this is the demon king's name broken as it is......!

Then it continues, Null's onslaught.

Prune......

Dogowong!!

Prune......

Dogowong!!

Prune......

Dogowong!!

Not only did he swing it down from the top, but he slipped his sword from side to side and from behind to Invisible Jerry.

As a result, the fallen tree on which the Invisible Jerry was attached falls apart...

"One, strong..."

It seemed impossible to strip the main body of the Invisible Jerry at the heart.

That's all, now it falls to the ground and roots to the rock that was underneath (?) It seems to have begun to tension.

"Well, keep it around there. It's not something you have to take home."

"Ha... right"

Looks like Null decided to give up as a result of being persuaded by the hunter.

But there was someone there who couldn't give up.

She is Null's sister and Yuki, who was cyborghing her whole body.

"Can't this be done if I pull it?

"No, no one struggles if they can pull it off"

Butch!

"Did you get something?

…………

Hunters and nulls that suddenly solidify because they let them strip away from the rocks too easily.

Apparently, even that Invisible Jerry couldn't beat Cyborg.

"... so what do you do with this?

and Yuki offering the hunter a mushroom shaped like countless tentacles growing, grabbing it somewhere disgusting.

But in doing so, she... made one big mistake.

As it were, I should have softly handed it to the hunter because I tried to give him something in a disgusting and unnatural position...

Becha......

Because of this, the stripped stone-piercing part was smashed into a certain object.

Yes, on Null's back......

"" … ahhh ""

As a result, Yuki and the hunter unwittingly solidify after witnessing a rapidly rooting Invisible Jerry from the bumped side to Null's cape.

Null himself could not see it firsthand, but seemed uncomfortable with the boulder.

"... Ains. I feel like I have something heavy on my back, is it my fault?

"Uh... Um... Sister Null? It's like a demon king" chuckle...

".................. ha"

And guess what, null with a tired look on his face.

Thus the hunter experience between Yuki and Nuru, with scattered results, ended the first time......
