Now, the story of when a man named Tight, who has a reputation for laughter, who is probably the leader of my party, was returning to the inn to finish off Nico's mess.
I had achieved the "Crusade of the Three E-rank Warcraft Gang Fist Monkeys (Crazy Monkeys)," an E-rank request, stripping away crusade sites that were evidence of crusade. The monkey crusade site is its characteristic fist. Three pairs of fists, both left and right, were slashed off with the sword they had, and bracketed in strings into a lumbar bag.
And after waiting for the fatigue accumulated in the battle to recover, I tried to return to the city. Report to the Alliance for rewards. Because it's an e-rank request, it's somewhat more rewarding. Tough guys are working hard, so we need to make the money we were asked to put together.
"... Phew, I hope Leila's okay... I hope she hasn't eaten Nico"
She is a demon. I don't know what you think of tough ones, but isn't it slightly dangerous to let them stay with Nico? I'm just a little worried about the area.
Well, I don't think he's the kind of guy who refuses a tough favor or does nothing, but he's a guy who's true to his desires, for better or worse, he doesn't get a sure proof.
"... let's go home"
Squeeze like that, I turn back my heels. And I tried to step out into a city that I could see. The moment I did,
- A chill running on my spine stopped my leg.
Although I have just looked back, my gaze moves back to the back again. It feels similar to the fear I felt for Leila. Yes, this is similar to what it felt like when you went to crusade "Arakune" with your tights and found "Eater's Hand". A warcraft that is no big deal in the whole thing, but if you get your hands on it, it will end.
Yes, a crisis where a tremendous threat falls if we cross the line, that's the feeling.
And the feeling was right. Long before my sight, it was smaller than the bean grains - but I could see that the monkeys I had defeated earlier were massive, massive, and looming from afar. It will still take some time to get here, but in half an hour, those masses will hit the city in a straight line.
"This, is...! Untasty...... ugh!?
The moment I opened my eyes and understood the danger of this situation, the alarm rang from the city. Apparently, the perimeter watchman assigned to the city also noticed that large group of warcraft. Perhaps even soon they will call for backup from the adventurers of that city and from the adventurers of the Kingdom of Grandir.
I could be a little distracted by that. Then again, he turns his gaze toward the great herd of warcraft.
"... it's not just the monkeys... it's the wolves... it's the goblins, the goblins, the nights... heh! Hey, is that -!?"
I can calm down and somehow understand the warcraft in the masses.
Among them, beastly warcraft such as monkeys and wolves run a large group of battles' to escape ', followed by goblins and goblin nights' to follow '.
And there was an even bigger shadow behind it.
A giant goblin, heard later but equal to or greater than a subspecies of monkeys that the tights fought.
Its enormous goblin, which would exceed roughly 5m, was running this way with an overwhelming sense of intimidation, even though the distance was wide open.
"Goblin...... KING......!?
A huge ugly ghost, one of the top estimated D-ranks, who can also get his hands on the realm of the Demon Nation if he gives it all he can.
Together, it's a warcraft with more than a subspecies of the tough, battled Gang-ken monkeys you'll hear later. No, more importantly, since some individuals are halfway intelligent, it might be more right to say half demonic, half warcraft.
But either way, there was a monster that couldn't win without dozens of adventurers above D-rank.
"But why... why now...!
I threw up like that as I bit my teeth and ran toward the city. I'll have to rendezvous with the tights first. Worst case scenario, with Layla, I can handle it. That's what I thought.
◇ ◇ ◇
Around that time, the Duke of Olba was just a little irritated by the fact that he could not hear very good results from Reis when he returned.
Even though the report found that he was a boy with no great strength, he left Reyce, a criminal but trusted in strength as a caution stick. More than stunning, it was unpleasant.
Therefore, not to say its wonderful, but the Duke of Olba himself had come under the man who had captured him - the man who had deposited Nico in the orange noise.
"Ha... ha... ha...!
"Hung, don't you still throw up after being hurt so much"
"Ha... ha... that kid, I won't give it to him...!
The man was interrogated and threw up nothing.
Therefore, he was to be tortured. It hurts me, it cures me where my body is worn out, and it hurts me again. That repetition. I was going to do it until I threw up.
And it's already been a day since torture began. Still, he didn't throw up one thing about Nico's whereabouts or the orange noise he had deposited.
"Your precious son of a bitch has already identified his place. The problem is... you're the one who kept the kid."
"... what?
But that's not the problem. In the end, it was only a matter of time before Nico could be found, beyond the orange noise not understanding the situation.
The problem was that for the man who deposited it, as well as for the Duke of Olba, a human being named Orange Sound was an unpredictable personable.
In fact, although you kept Nico, Orange Sound didn't try to leave this city. Though pointing at S-rank criminals, Orange Sound retreated while possessing an H-rank adventurer.
"The man... who is it?
"... I don't know, I just stumbled into each other while I was on the run"
"... you know, I suppress all the people who have contact with you. If I had kept that kid, I wouldn't have come to such a tight place."
Duke of Olba, whose tone is rambling because of his frustration, but the man was only a little anxious to see who he had deposited his precious daughter with.
What if you're the kind of person that hurts my daughter? What if she's a pervert who craves her daughter?
That idea comes to mind even more now. Maybe I left my daughter with a hell of a human being. I thought so.
"But still, I'm not out of this city... at least there's something I can do for this city. Well, considering he's hiding that kid... I'm flattered that you're the one who's after him."
"Huh!?
The Duke of Olba thought, that man - the greatest means of breaking the orange noise.
Simple and simply effective way… 'hostages'. What the Duke of Olba wants is his daughter, Nico, not his father. For this reason, I don't mind killing my father, who is kneeling in front of me.
"So come on - you're feeding me a little bit, aren't you? Well, there's no veto."
Hands together, please and laugh all the time Duke of Olba. He's already late thirty at his age, but I can feel quite young from his words, deeds and words. As much as I can feel the innocent madness of a child.
"Huh... Kuh...!
A man who has no right of veto, no power to resist, seems repentant. Seeing that, the Duke of Olba hoisted the end of his mouth with pleasure.
And there...
"Duke of Orba! I have a report for you!
"Uh? What?
"On the north side of the center, about 2 miles away, a large swarm of warcraft appeared! That number, roughly 300! And in it...... there is goblinking!!
"Become... no!!?
- A sudden crisis was told.
◇ ◇ ◇
The city was noisy.
Upon the news of the abrupt arrival of a large group of warcraft, the adventurers and knights quickly set themselves up and headed out to the entrance of the city to put a large group of warcraft in sight.
There are roughly twenty assembled adventurers. Even the highest-ranked among them had one D-rank and most of the others were E-ranked and F-ranked.
The orange noises aren't on the spot, by the way. He was normally indulgent after finishing his mess at the inn.
"... it's kind of noisy out there."
"That's right... didn't you even get out of the Demon Clan?
"I'd be here, wouldn't I?
"It's not you. It's the Demon Clan... the Demon King or something?
"Stiff, you're a very likely prospect."
"If so, it's the worst thing that's ever happened, I'm gonna pull over."
The orange sounds, in a way, imagined an unlikely crisis over an imminent one.
Leila, the brave, the apostles, and the continuation of an awesome cheat fight have considerably paralysed the sense of crisis.
Perhaps even if I told you about the impending gobling to the orange noise now--
"Tough! Oh, my God! A whole bunch of warcraft are attacking me! And there's goblinking in it!!
"Heh, is goblin delicious?
"Um, I don't know if it's subtle... but it's good when you're hungry or something because of the amount."
- This is the only response we can get. Leishe, who jumped into the room, has his eyes properly rounded for the orange noise reaction.
Nico was the only one who sparkled his eyes that sounded awesome when he heard the name of Goblinking, but it wasn't the same reaction he thought.
"No, um... it's goblinking"
"Hey, Leishe."
I want you to be more surprised, Leishe says it's gobbling again with respect for some reason.
But the orange noise glances at Lieche with a thin, laugh. Liesche was also slightly dizzy under the orange noise gaze, but pointed her lips back into dissatisfaction.
"... what?
"Are you in front of me?
"... 'Red Night (Layla)'"
"Right?"
"Not really."
I was convinced while I said so, Liesche. Even though the S-rank Demons are with us, they lack a bit of impact to fear at the earliest, such as the top D-rank goblin.
No, it's certainly a mistake to be a half-demon half-warvest monster with some higher status than orange noise and enough strength to fight well, even if he's a C-ranked lower demon.
"... I can't believe that now the adventurers and knights of this city are preparing to intercept at the total. What are we gonna do?
"What do we do?
"What do we do?
"... what..."
When the leachet swings to the orange sound, the orange sound swings to Leila. Shaken by orange noise, Leila smiled and flushed to Nico as she was. And Nico, who came around at the end, got stiff because he didn't think he was coming.
And Orange Sound and Leila laugh couscous if that reaction was as expected. Liesche has a look of ridicule at the two teasing children.
"Haha, yeah...... I don't know what to do - ah!
"What's the matter, tough guy?
"The Duke of Olba is likely in a hurry to deal with the goblinking, so why don't we just take Nico's father back within the moment?
Orange sounds come to mind. How dare you take Nico's father back? That now is the perfect gap.
"Here we go, and I'll get you something that's gonna be money over there."
"I wonder if that's a guy called a bandit. Me?
Orange sounds made a thin laugh and decided to get in where the Duke of Orba was. Apparently, Goblinking decided to leave it alone for now.
