Hunting in the woods is going well. When it comes to the depths of the woods, the rate of encountment with demons is also not comparable to near the entrance. Nevertheless, there is no possibility of being ambushed by my and Satie's detection skills and Hoku's reconnaissance. The advantages of always leading the way are enormous. All you have to do is take the lead and unleash the magic from a distance.

"Ho, ho, yes, but detection skills are a little irregular. I've never had such an easy hunt."

That's what Ellie says during the break after a quick cleanup of the three oaks.

"Doesn't everyone have detection skills?

"Turks had good eyes and ears too, but Satie's and Massal's are on different levels. I'm sure Turks' was about a year or two."

Turks is Ellie's former party member and scout. I heard it was pretty awesome, but is that what it is?

"What's at stake in the forest is the lack of vision. I wish you'd make a loud noise like the oak you're in right now, but there's something you wouldn't notice if you were lurking right next to me. When I realized I was in the middle of a demon's nest, I heard about a party that was destroyed."

Think it's dangerous. Was it due to detection skills that the forest, which was said to be dangerous, had never done that in particular before? If there had been no detection, there would certainly have been some dangerous places. Especially snakes and insect systems. It's hard on Satie's eyes and ears.

To my surprise, there's a 2m kamakiri or something. Do you think the Kamakiri sickle has great hardness and sometimes cleaves iron? Even a full-plate knight would be in danger if he were struck by such a surprise. The great Kamakiri found a hiding spot in my detection, and soon fell victim to Ann and Tirica's ice bullets.

"Enough breaks. How much magic does Masaru have left?

"That's more than half."

My role is in a magic tank, and I'm going to use that magic as a guide to continue the hunt.

"You're still okay because I'm not that diminished either. Come on, let's go. I'm tired of all the trinkets today, so I'd love to have a bigger one next."

It is Mr. Ellie who flags to exhale. When I say that, the big guy comes out. I'm sure it's out of my control...

Patience the bad ones and sneak a cup of concentrated Magi tea. I've never been over there to be careful.

"Shall we go then?"

And about an hour after I left, I didn't come across anything. Of course, small birds and small animals depend on the detection of signs. But there were no large herbivores or demons. I remember this pattern. Some kind of nest was nearby, and other demons were expelled.

"There's something here."

Ellie snaps like that.

"If that's what you're gonna do, we're gonna get out of here at the gate right away, okay?

"Masaru is really worried. I'm fine, I'm fine."

"I hope so"

There are times when everything ends with a single failure. It was reminded when Harpy.

"I saw the harpy nest"

Shortly thereafter, Tirica's report is brought about.

"Do you know the scale?

"I left immediately so I couldn't find it"

"That's fine. Put the hoku back. I'll scout."

"Master Masaru, I'll go"

"No, I'll go. Harpy's nest makes it easier for me to see how many signs I have. Satie, please stand by."

The two covert, sneaky skills are equal, and neither Satie is physically capable, nor is I magical or suitable for reconnaissance. That's why I'm going as far as I can. I want to avoid endangering my wife as much as possible.

"Yes."

"Be careful, Masal"

"Yeah, I'm coming"

Come on, it's time for me to get to the next level. I can use a skill reset, but there are few places that seem to shred with my current skills, and I want to keep the skill reset warm. If it weren't for the woods, I'd erase every nest with Meteo.

Slowly as I went along thinking about that, I could see the nest. There are a lot of signs. Twenty, thirty, forty, fifty... Thanks. They're also outside the scope of sign detection. Do you want to scout any closer? In the meantime, I'll put a report in the rat's pants. Hang on, I shook my head. It's a sign to go back.

It's time to go back cautiously. It just sucks when you find yourself in a group of over fifty. Die.

The operation meeting begins as we return home safely to everyone.

"You just have to wipe it out with my magic again. If you widen the scope, you'll have no problem leaking a little."

"I'm worried I couldn't reconnaissance."

"But if it's a massive nest, you can't just leave it alone. If you can defeat him, you should defeat him."

It also makes sense what Ann says. I don't think our party should be able to beat you, even if it's twice a hundred.

"What do you think of Satti and Tirica?

"I think you should take me down too"

"I can't judge you"

"Agree. Three."

Can't you say this is scary anymore?

"Do we make the operation the same as before?

"Basically, yeah. But after shooting range magic, let's assume there's a leak in the shot."

As a result of the meeting, we decided to wait for the evening to aim for the total annihilation of the nest. Harpy has the habit of going back to his nest and sleeping at night. The sun will be down in about three hours, so I decided to wait two hours.

While lurking in the woods and waiting, several harpies fly overhead and nearby to the nest. Every time I wonder if I can find it. Reminds me of Harpy when the city raided. That time he obviously sensed magic and attacked me. What if the hell is the superior species passing overhead? I have a hard time waiting.

"Scared?"

Yes, Ann looked at me and asked me in a low voice. I don't have any harpies nearby that I normally talk to, but naturally I whisper.

"I'm so scared. I remember being hit by a harpy before."

"But you're a lot stronger than that."

Am I right? Skills have increased somewhat but I don't feel that way at all. This is how I am still scared. Remembering Level 5 fire magic is useless in the present situation, and hunting in the woods is hardly a battle with radar clerks and magic tanks.

"Unleashing magic like Ellie isn't the strength, is it? Thanks to Masaru, we can all fight without worrying about magic, and my powers are what Masaru gave me in the first place."

"Is that what this is about? I'd like to try something more glamorous."

"Like a brave man?

"I kinda hate that. Yeah, you can stay plain. I'll leave it to Ellie to be flashy."

"Yes, yes. It's a party, and we all just need to be strong. I'm a healer, but I don't use it here, so it's going to rust."

"It's a great day for water magic."

"I don't think that's the same thing. Look, it's not the same as Massal. There's an ideal image, and it's using healing magic."

"Do you regret being an adventurer?

"Yeah. My dream when I was little was to join the Temple Knights. Listen to the priest. I've always admired you."

"Heh. Why didn't you come in?

"Women rarely let me in. Besides, I didn't have much fighting talent, and I had magical aptitudes."

Adventurers in this world are always in good physical shape. As a woman, it would be tough to do it in the avant-garde that Angela is about the same physique.

"When you get to the level, do you want to go up that side?

"I'll stop. There's something that's not right for you."

Suitability is important. Even if Satti wanted to use magic, as she could not help but be avant-garde, would I also be essentially a healing technique or civil engineering? But that's not going to save the world.

I looked at Sati and stared at me. Tirica and Ellie are napping napping, and Satie is dressed like she's caught between them. I know it's a pleasant thing, but it's important to rest when you can. I was on guard with Ann because I wasn't going to rest.

"How's Satie? You don't have a direction you want to raise? He wanted to be a wizard."

"Mmm. I knew I couldn't do magic."

I've passed out about three times.

"I can help you as you are now, and I'm just satisfied that I can use magic"

I saw Tirica pull back, and I shut up. Was that a little loud? The time since then has somehow been spent in silence. Sometimes I don't get so freaked out about the harpy passing over my head anymore. But that's a lot. Just passing by is more than ten. This side alone might not make the harpy of the nest a hundred.

It's time to rock Erie and Tirica.

"There are more harpies than I thought. There's more than ten of them just walked overhead while waiting."

"That's why I'm not changing the operation. Any maneuver is dangerous."

"The magic that gives you will keep you warm."

Tirica's magic is increasing as much as it rises in a day of hunting today.

"I can't help but say it. I'll do what I'm supposed to."

"Okay."

I want to be Ellie, but along with it, I carefully approach the harpy's nest and reach the visible position of the nest. Three people are waiting in the rear about 200m, and I also made four 3m grade golems. It has been investigated that at this distance, simple instructions can be given to the Golem.

Ellie begins her magical chant in the shade of a tree. There's nothing wrong with not having to be a Jen royal. Next to it, he refrains from serving as an escort.

As the chant progressed and thunderclouds erupted over the sky, the nest became noisy. Many harpies jump out of the nest. It was hard to tell from a distance, but one of them did look over here and ring. And Harpy comes this way in unison.

"The chant was broken. Join me."

I'd like to tell you so and start moving the golem this way. He's no longer hiding. There's no point. More and more harpies are flying this way.

Set up a large shield of swords and electrical resistance specifications to protect Ellie and wait for Harpy. Have you finished chanting yet!?

I shot down the first one with a fire spear. Harpy's flying fast and the second one can't make it. Trying to intercept him with a sword, he ate an arrow and fell to the ground. It's Satie. Cut off the third one approaching at a lower altitude as he squeezes his body.

Finally, Ellie's chant is complete.

"Come, come. The strongest thunderbolt that pierces everything, God's thunderbolt, smash your enemies from heaven! Terra Thunder!!"

Flashing and roaring. This time I hid in the shadow of my shield properly and blocked my eyes. I can't help my ears anymore.

The moment I raised my face from the shield and tried to check the situation, I impacted the shield and fell from my back to the ground. My arms are numb and I remove my shield. Harpy attacked me as I tried to get up. Damn, it's this pattern again!

But this time I'll deal with it calmly. The sword remains, and the armor is reinforced. I manage to get my upper body up and guard it with a sword, like three. Trouble. I can't even stand up just to guard it.

One of them bled up and fell.

"Masal!"

It's Ellie's voice. One fell, plus I could stand up looking at the other harpies distracted gap. Ellie has a tree on her back when she glances at it, and wants to get in front of it, but she doesn't lean on the harpy. If that looks okay, I'll turn back to the two in front of me, no, the harpy that's increased to four.

Another harpy eats an arrow and falls to the ground. If Satie's safe, that'll be fine. We need to do something about the harpy in front of us for now. Some attack can be done or taken with a sword, but there is a lot of trouble in attacking from above. It's also a bad idea to work with them and attack them uninterruptedly.

Soon after the injury is healed, the body gets more scratches. Jiri, isn't it? The other members are probably full of them. The golem should be slowly walking this way. If I could operate it, I could speed it up. Two more were cut down, but the number of harpies has not decreased. I don't think I'll do anything about it, but the harpy in front of me is too intrusive to protect myself, so I'll do my best.

At that time, too many ice dragons fly overhead, wrapping up many harpies and wiping them out. A blank zone with no harpies was created around it.

"Ellie!"

Ellie rushes over. Golem had already come pretty close when he saw it, and he could see Sati.

"We'll rendezvous."

That's what I say while running. The harpies on the path are falling apart by Sati's arrows. Keep Ellie ahead and follow. I'd love to, but it looks like you'll take my lord.

Run a distance of about 50m and jump in between the golems.

"Ellie, Masal! Good, you're safe."

"I'm fine. Tirica, please."

"I know."

Rearrange to enclose the golem.

"Keep Harpy away from me for a little while. Ellie's over here, too."

Chant the miracle light. Tirica has already begun to summon you. I can't afford to manipulate the golem, so let me shake my arm for now. It will be about restraint.

Either summons was completed and a miracle light was activated, and the magic of Ellie and Tirica was charged.

"Kick the harpy, whichever way"

"I understand."

When you say that, you turn your body much more toward the harpy nest.

"Don't burn the woods with your braces!

"Harpy is running away. Do you want to chase?"

But Suguro put his neck around this side and asked.

"Oh, yeah? Then be on your perimeter."

Well, that's true. Even though the nest is devastated, you must have lost your will to see even more dragons.

"You're hurt. I'll cure you now."

Ann heels me. It's good to have reinforced your protective gear. Not that bad a scratch.

"Ann has a lot less magic, too. I'll refill it."

There is still room for magic. I only served four golems, and I didn't have time to use magic.

"Is everyone hurt, too?

Everyone answers Ann's question and says it's okay. Am I the only one injured? I saw it completely terrible.

"Hurry up and collect the harpy. The sun is going down."

Which one of you will take Ellie and I will go around collecting Harpy's body. 152 of them actually. I feel like I saw it, would I have defeated about a hundred bodies with Erie's range magic? Quite a few of them escaped, so if they were bad, they would have been close to 200.

"152, right? You've made a lot of money. It was a little dangerous."

"Yeah. You made money. It was terrible, though."

I wanted to mention the flag but I put up with it. Nothing. It wasn't Ellie's fault that Harpy was gushing. This would be too unreasonable to blame. But I really can't insult the big guy from coming out. So I just said it for a second.

"Like I said, I'm glad the big guy came out."

"Beh, you didn't come out because I said so, did you?

He seemed a little concerned, too. I don't think so either.
