Well then, let's go. You know, I can't use fire magic in the woods, so I won't do it.... well, if it wasn't really dangerous, I might burn the woods and save you. Be careful not to. Isn't that nice? "
"Yes."
After an early lunch. In the garden of my house, the hunt of the day began after I didn't know if it was a joke or not by Celine, the leader.
There's a river north of my house. Beyond the river is the habitat of the previously hunted yayokedori, but the Green Fox is not there. So today we leave the house and head west.
The further away Green Fox is from the village, the higher his chance of encountering him. But that's not because Green Fox isn't a harmless monster to people, but because villagers regularly carry out extermination activities around the village.
It seems like a militant monster with sharp claw teeth, but it is thanks to the authentic activities of the villagers that I don't see it around my house at all. Thank you so much. I hope that today's hunt will add a little to the extermination effort.
"Looks like he's not here anymore. We're moving on."
Follow Celine's words and go silently through the forest. Celine leads, Esther leads, and me and Nicolas line up behind them.
The sun is brighter and the visibility is not worse than expected because the trees aren't so dense around here. But in the woods, the trees get in the way, and the accuracy of spatial sensing drops slightly. Nicolas' sensing abilities don't seem to matter.
Nevertheless, I can't rely on Nicolas all the time. I walk in the woods while sensing as much space as I can.
In the meantime, I looked at Esther walking in front of me. Ester is the same Culotte Skirt as usual today. I don't seem to like the rigid gear, and the usual one is a dagger with a waist. I put one on both sides, but will it be double-edged?
I was surprised to hear from Nicolas.
That's good, healthy little ass. It's good enough to be guessed when you see too much cancer. "
No, I don't want you to come with me.
――――――
Have you walked long enough? Suddenly, a gust of wind blows through the trees, leaving dead leaves in the air.
It's a little windy today.
That's how Celine, with her face down, paid off the fallen leaves on the black dress, and Nicolas, with her serious face, got a message.
Today... the wind is noisy...
But a little... this wind... is crying.... so what did you find?
Nicolas nodded with satisfaction as I gazed with a gaze.
"Celine, if you keep going, we'll have two green foxes."
"Oh, that's Nicola. Then be careful from here."
Everyone nodded tightly to Celine's words, slowing down the pace of walking and walking through the forest. After walking for a while, Celine stopped and pointed her finger diagonally forward.
In that direction, two fox-shaped monsters of the same size as large dogs, slightly darker green than Lumil's wrap, stood beside a large tree. I wonder if that's Green Fox. I don't think they've noticed us yet.
It's not moving right now, and it's usually a good distance to hit if you shoot with a stone barrel, but I'm worried about the density of trees around the two of them.
"Ester..."
"- Yeah."
I acted on Esther's prior meeting. First, hit the Stone Barrett one by one.
Then the green fox on the left, where the tree was in the way and the radiation was limited, cut the sky without hitting the bullet, but hit the other chest firmly. Green Fox, who screamed with Gayne, fell and stopped moving.
At the same time, the ester runs in a straight line toward the remaining side.
When the opponent was defeated and noticed the crisis, Green Fox stepped on her limbs to intercept the approaching ester and waved her nails as she approached.
But when Esther side-stepped it, she quickly approached and daggered through it.
"Shh!"
Green Fox, who had his neck cut off with a whistle of temper, lay on the ground without screaming.
Esther looked back and stared at the two monsters lying down... making a circle with her big hand. Looks like it worked.
"Well done, both of you. Marc has adjusted the strength of the Stone Barrett, great."
Celine smiled and stroked my head. If you hit a few shots as usual, it would be dangerous for the removed bullet to hit the tree and blow up, break or fly, so I set it to weaker than usual bullets. This time, material hunting is the main thing, so the maximum firepower is bad.
"Eh, did you adjust it? Is the regular stone barrette stronger than that?
Esther came back dragging two green foxes.
"If it's about a tree, I'll be gentle ~"
"That's right. I knew Marc was amazing!
Estelle praises me for letting go, but from me, Estelle is amazing.
Ester was amazing too. I can't get so close to the Green Fox and get away from my nails and attack it. "
Fufu, thank you.
When Esther laughed as if it were illuminated, she shaken the bloody dagger she had and drained the blood and put it into her sheath. I'm a little scared that my face and actions don't match. Then, Nicolas arrived with a reminder of how she was feeling a little snug.
"Oniichan, it's about time you complimented me on finding the monster first.
"Ni, Nicola too! My space sensing is refreshing in the woods, and it's amazing!"
"Ehehe, not so much!
When Nicolas answered my bar reading humbly, Esther rode on it.
"Well, Nicolas is amazing, too. How do you do that?
When Estelle talks to Nicolas in an intriguing way, Nicolas answers with a full smile.
"This is Nicolas's gift!
"Oh, yeah. It's amazing that we're both together."
The expression of Esther who answered impressively is quite natural, and I don't feel like asking Nicolas about the vigilance she has rarely shown recently. Estelle has a sports club system, so if you admit your strength, you may be able to narrow your mind. I wish I could get along a little like this.
So I put the green fox in the item box while praying. Of course I'm the porter today. Celine looked at it and opened her mouth.
"Well, only two of them are still hunting. I think it would be enough if there were three or four of them, but why don't we hunt a little more and go home ~"
When we answered Celine's voice, we went further into the woods.
