When trying to leave from the wreckage of an oak settlement, Satti says signs of people are approaching. I'd be about an adventurer if I said people who come all the way here. I wanted to turn it off and wait a little while, and hey, I heard a voice from afar. When I see it, a few adventurers walk in.

"I knew you were an adventurer. Perhaps the prey has met."

While on alert, the weapon drops and waits for the adventurer. I don't have a weapon on the other side. Relative at a distance of a few m. The number is four. Everyone is young. Is he a runaway adventurer? I'm a little tired of my gear. A man has one girl in three. One of them was progressing.

"Did you guys do this? It sounded amazing, so I came to check it out."

"That's right. Maybe you were after the orcs, too?

"You happen to find it. I was just talking to you about what to do. As you can see, there are four of us. Not really, but we can't deal with an orc settlement."

"Yes. Good for you. Is that all you got to do?

"Uh, you haven't introduced yourself yet. I'm Alvin, leader of Party Cagour."

Say that and show the guild card. D-rank?

This is Samurai leader Massal.

This one shows the cards that are always played from the neck in the same way. My current rank is C. Alvin seems a little impressed. Probably looked at me and thought I was younger, and didn't think I was ranked higher than myself. Even Mr. Lazard is C-ranked. The difference from rank to rank is quite significant.

"So I need to talk to you a little bit. You're going to Fort Gorbath after this?

"I'm going to."

"Can I come with you if you like? Well, a little more enemies than I thought."

I see. All four of you look probably tired.

According to the story, to this point there is a great deal of fatigue although we have managed to come to repel our enemies. I found an oak settlement there, and I turned around and talked to the guild about reporting to them, and there was a roar and we would have come to see it.

"I'll talk to you for a second."

That's what Ellie says, distancing herself from the adventurers.

"What do we do? I can't have a fort or anything by the end of the day."

Put your head together and start consulting.

"That's why you can't leave me alone. I'll take you back."

That's what Ann claims.

"That would mean camping."

"Better than a basement. And sooner or later, this is what happens, and you just have to think of it as practice."

Ellie, who I thought would disagree with the most, also turned in favor. Do you hate sleeping in the basement so much?

"At times like this, adventurers help each other. I don't know when I'm gonna be able to help."

I see. Helping each other matters. He thought the other world was more of a slaughter, but he doesn't seem to be out there.

"Then maybe two days. What do you think of Tirica?

"I didn't lie"

Tirica says hello Ellie, she's wearing a brown robe, and she's wearing a hood softly. If you don't look carefully, you won't know you have the Devil's Eye.

"Beware of anything suspicious for once."

"Okay."

"Shall we return with you to the fort?"

"It's true! It'll help."

When I said that, Alvin looked relieved. I wish I could turn back at a time when I thought it would suck if it was that hard.

"Yeah, when we're in trouble, we're each other."

Says he keeps his stuff nearby. I decided to go get that for now. They can't use item boxes, they keep their luggage to a minimum, but the prey is a good amount. It was enough to wonder if we could have it, but the four of us shared it and showed it all on our backs. This will also make you tired of traveling.

When I saw it and suggested Ellie could put her prey in her own item box, I was so pleased.

"I knew it would be different if there was an item box. I'm going to remember that one of these days, and I'm going to say that spatial magic is hard, and it's hard. I envy you for having a competent wizard."

Ellie is praised and a Doya face. All of us can use magic when it's our party, and I'm better at the item box, and I guess I was just so happy I didn't have one of these lately. I'm in a lot of a mood.

"You've seen it in the fort's defense. You were on the Second Wall, weren't you?

Alvin talks to me as I walk. He remembered seeing Ellie and Satie. These two are cute and conspicuous. Me? It's plain and I can't help remembering because when I was on the walls, I was killing signs. Gear is different then. Maybe you can tell by Maggie, who crushed the ladder around, but you don't have to bother.

They stayed after the Royal Army arrived and said they were crusading the surrounding demons. So the near-field demons were diminishing, so I stretched my legs out into the woods, but there were many other demons besides my thoughts.

"I heard the forest was dangerous, but it was more than we expected. The night was especially tough. There have been many raids and I don't have time to sleep. You guys are amazing through the woods."

They are D-ranked. It's not a level of rush. I guess I'm competent there around being almost intact and cut through while I say the night is tough. I'll listen to you with a hammer of hard work around it. I go back to my house and sleep, so the story is interesting.

She still rubbed it whether to move on or turn back, but eventually she decided to move on. The idea is that it should be as good as a forest offense if it is also a D-rank. I thought Taeko was more important than his life, but he calculated that if he suffered some sleep deprivation, he could complete his appointment.

And this guy talks a lot. Do you know that he is in the march?

Our party is ahead of Sati in the current formation, and this party serves as the valley. They're alerting me to the rear, but there's detection, so it doesn't make as much sense.

And I'd like to, but of course, they're all walking without golems. I thought it would be as good as a golem, but Ellie seemed to think it would involve her dignity as an adventurer. The point is that it doesn't look good to be transported to the Golem. As far as Hoku's reconnaissance is concerned, it's a decision that will soon be through the woods, and if they turn back the way they came. Summoners have a lot of trouble explaining things, and you don't have to show them.

"It's magic that destroyed the settlement, isn't it? There were no traces."

"Yeah. Well, yeah."

"Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to pry. I just don't get to see a lot of magic on a large scale."

"You know what, around there, you know? I hope you didn't even say what you saw."

Wizards are often at the core of their power at parties. It is very common practice to keep that information secret. Especially us. A lot sucks. Although this level of information is fine, it has never crossed the line without diffusion.

"Oh, of course I do. I'm gonna take care of you, and I'm not gonna do anything to annoy you."

Go on chatting like that for a while. The pace is slow-eyed considering their fatigue as well. And I could hear a lot about the fort afterwards. The construction of the third castle wall is going well, they say, but due to its wide scope, it is likely to be completed much further. The demonic realm is calm and the Royal Army is gradually beginning to withdraw. The inhabitants are almost returning, and with so much more personnel in the construction of the walls, the fort is roughly recovering its pre-raid condition.

The leading sati stopped as he chatted with the bump. The line stops to match it. Sati is pinching her ears and looking forward.

"I'll come here for something. A lot. I think it's oak."

"That's the orc of the settlement."

"If you're on your way over here, I guess so. You know how many?

"Twenty or thirty? Maybe more. I don't know a lot."

That's what Satie answers to Ellie's query.

"Thirty!? We have to hurry and run!

When I hear thirty, Alvin says in a hurry. The other three panicked and alerted their surroundings.

"We're still a long way from home, so I'm fine."

There's still quite a distance because it won't take me to detect it.

"Really?

"Satti's got good ears, so he can spot enemies from quite a distance."

You seem relieved to hear that.

"But there are thirty, what are you going to do?

"Take it down. It's not natural."

"Right. Lurk around here and strike surprises. Our party will magically ambush, so if there's a shooting leak, I'd like you to take care of it."

Are you sure you want to do this?

"You've seen the orc settlement, haven't you? It's okay."

"Wow, okay."

Ellie is willing, and decided to fight without consulting much, but Orc would have no problem where the numbers were.

"Tirica, please."

That's all I want to say, and Tirica nods coldly. All you have to do is kick it out.

Start by giving out four 3m grade golems. So far, no more numbers can be operated well. Then you can make it bigger, but this is in a narrow forest. Behavior is limited if it is any larger than this size.

"What do we do? The number of oaks is quite high. We can do it alone, so we can get out of here now."

One way or another, I ask him if it would be easier for him to fight for me if he ran away. Besides, fighting a bunch of orcs, you can't even let someone you just met today hang out with. If you think properly, it will be tough to deal with thirty with this number of people.

"Must be a lot of orcs, huh? You'd better have some fighting power."

That's what Alvin says with a slightly sad face. I can't even ask you to just run away, and I'm going to ask you to keep helping me.

"Okay. Fight the Golem as a shield if the orcs approach you."

My detection also takes enemies as I prepare. Might be a little bad. In addition to the large number, the line is growing. I wonder if there's a concept of reconnaissance, luckily there's no such thing as being ahead of us from a group.

"Ellie, there's going to be more than fifty. Plus, the line is stretching vertically, and it's not going to end with a single blow."

"Fifty or more. But if it's just the oak, there shouldn't be a problem. You hit the lead, you cut it down, you cut it down, you don't care what's left, do you?

"Yeah, I think so"

"Let's go with no spare time. The magic that destroyed the Oak Settlement, okay?

Three other people use Level 3 range magic on Ellie's Level 4. Wind and water systems. As always, there is no fire magic.

Observe demonic movements with detection and determine latency points. If the enemy keeps going straight, he should poke the line from the side.

Hide behind your back and wait for the demon to arrive.

"You should see it soon"

Alvin nodded with a nervous face as he refrained beside him and prepared for battle. Alvin and his crew decided to fight together when they heard all about this operation, even if it was more than fifty. I guess you believed this one saying that you have enough chances to win because you use the magic that destroyed the settlement.

I see a bunch of orcs coming. Counting again, it was about seventy. I guess it means this is the main unit because I was in the nest leaving a message. It is noisy because of the high number. But apparently it will pass through the position as expected. And I don't see how you notice this one at all.

Wait for the signal to start the attack whilst twitching. Orc's line is exposed to flanks before us, but the line is still a little long. You'll have to be prepared for the battle.

Ellie raised her hand, and lowered it slightly. It's a signal to start the chant. Start chanting sequentially and the magic of the four bursts in unison. There is a roar in the woods, wind and ice storms rolling in, trees falling.

Still a few just in sight, surviving. I guess it's also because of the power killed in the woods trees. Inputs magic into survival immediately. Orcs fall down when arrows flash from Satie and Alvin's parties as well.

I finally noticed survival here. He barks and tries to poke at me. The orcs in the rearmost part of the population fell out of the magical range and survived considerably. Let him crouch and stand up the golem he was hiding. But that doesn't seem necessary either. Ellie's wind magic burst into the middle of the oak.

Are we done? I thought so and looked around and I saw an oak approaching me with an axe. Close. When did they get close?!? Move the golem to block the oak path. Alvin had already noticed and followed the golem.

The golem makes contact with the oak. He tries to hit an oak with a golem, but is sent, and he is attacked in the torso with an axe. But it's a lifeless golem. I am not frightened to that extent and try to hit him with the other hand, but it is also lightly changed. Clearly not the same agility as the orcs I've ever seen. And the oak swung the axe upwards, cleaving the golem into pieces. Damage causes the golem to collapse into just dirt for me.

But the little time Golem earned was enough. An arrow stabs an oak in the shoulder, and more magic hits him.

"Did you do it!?

But the oak waved its axe without looking concerned, and Alvin, who approached him to defeat the oak, was blown away. The next time the orcs turn to me, they attack me. I can instantly pack my distance. Shit, this guy's a superior species!

An extraordinarily larger body than any other oak, a huge axe worthy of it. He also wears a helmet and a plate armor in his upper body. A few on the body, with arrows stabbed, but without anything, he wields an axe.

"Air hammer!

Strike a wind bullet into a torso full of gaps. The oak melted for a moment or so, but he waved his axe down as it was. And I will send it to you, and I will pay the sword to the sword. Rip off the oak arm, but his hips are drawn and shallow. Oak stepped straight in and stuck a giant fist out to the counter. On top of the long reach of the oak, I can't dodge it in time just after waving my sword.

Though blocked by a shield, it is blown up and hit by a tree behind it. Stand up to see your consciousness about to fly. I have a huge oak in front of me. That guy wields an axe. I don't move as much as my body thinks I should, even to avoid it. Shit. If I eat that big axe, I'll die... the next moment I thought so. Oak bled out of his neck, how he fell.

"Master Masal!

Satti stood with a sword over the fallen oak.

"Sati? Thanks......"

I can support you with Sati's hand where you're about to fall.

"What about the enemy?

"Some of them got away, but this is the last one."

My neck is nicely chopped off when I look at the fallen oak. Golem, that didn't help much. I almost bought time, but that's all. If it was enough to move the golem, wouldn't it have been better to chant magic? This guy would be just as instant if he ate even a Level 3 bombing. But in that case, the time you earned from the Golem will run out...

"Masal, are you okay?

Ellie came this way too. Speaking of which, my bumped back or arm or something hurts. Ah, Alvin! Is Alvin okay?!?

When I see it, Ann is attached to Alvin. Alvin was waking up his upper body. Apparently, he's safe. Good. I thought you were dead. Ann saw this one, so I'll wave her that it's okay.

"Look, I'll heel you"

I got Ellie's heel, and I'm finally getting my head straight. Tiredness pushes me closer and I sit back on the spot.

"This guy's a superior species."

"Oak King, maybe."

"It was quite strong. Golem's down in three seconds."

"I guess the golem is the only problem..."

Maybe so. The golem has power, but no speed. I couldn't handle the speed of oak king at all.

"Do you want to collect it for now"

"I'll do it, Massal, and you stay put."

"Yeah."

Sati looks worried about the side.

"Thank you, Satie. I picked up my life. Has everyone else been hurt?

"Yes, except Master Masal is fine"

Really? I feel like I'm the only one injured every time. I'd rather have someone from my daughter-in-law get hurt, but maybe we should take a look back at the style of combat.
