Four more "Red Vows" kept going through the woods for a few more hours.

The route follows the planned route of the survey team received at the Hunter Guild.

Since the primary purpose of this request is the search of the investigation team, there is no other option.

No, no matter which item you prioritize, you are free as the contractor for the request, because the Red Oath promised.

"The wish…, only heard! 'and….

Forced oaths. No promises. No need to keep them.

You can ignore that and laugh at him.

But promises based on faith must be kept. Whatever happens.

Discover and take home even if the chances of survival are unlimited, even if it is part of the body, one artifact. It would have been that reply if I had such a firm belief.

"... you're decreasing"

"Oh......"

Miles and Mavis are right, the number of demons eligible for the discount has decreased.

What that means......

"I'm here! Three hundred meters ahead, eight!

Yes, there was a close proximity to where the demons moved.

"It's not a goblin or an oak or anything. It's like a human being..."

It was a slightly poorly toothed mileage report, but the magical reaction of the mileage would be slightly different from that of humans because they are demonic. That's what I thought, Lena, I didn't even care.

"I'll intercept you! Think they're better than us.

On the other hand, this one intercepts the target with a counter that he intends to ambush. Think that's all you've got. "

I don't know, it's a pessimistic word, but if it's true about half of the stories about the demons that came out of those stories, fairy tales or old stories, where Lena was told by her father at night when she was a little girl, the winner is thin.

But in the woods, we can't possibly shake off someone who has far better physical abilities than ourselves and is used to the terrain. They will either be ambushed where they are run away and exhausted, or they will just end up twitching and scraping one at a time.

Even if it turns out that in the back of the woods, the demons will attack us, and that the cause of the damage so far is the work of the demons, it is a considerable achievement as an investigative task. The next step is to come with the corresponding force.

The rest is good if you can return alive.

Zaa!

Suddenly, two shadows descended from the tree.

"... Earthpillar!

"Water gun!

Cancer!

Shut up!

Dosari

The enemy, who apparently tried to powerless the two rear guard magicians in an instant, descended momentously from the tree as it flew to Lena and Pauline, one of whom crashed into the ground in a thoughtful clash into a dirt column magically made by Lena. And the other, a spear of water released by Pauline hit and fell to the ground as well.

It was not stabbed because it was water, not ice, but the water momentum was added to the rate of descent, which seemed to increase in power.

"" "" Eh... ""

Though the detailed detection reports of the miles gave the four of us an accurate idea of the timing of the enemy's raid, we were unexpectedly surprised that the enemy had fallen too easily and went into a flesh-bomb battle without the magic we were supposed to be good at.

And when I tried to see how the enemy was still down on the ground.

"Don't move!

Turning to a voice hung from the rear, there were four enemy figures there. Perhaps the other two are hiding.

And that, four of the enemies who showed up.

I stood still, cat ears.

Broken and dripping, dog ears.

Fox ears, rabbit ears.

... and mundane tails.

"" "" Dj, Beast Man?

Yes, it was, no matter what you think, not a demon tribe.

"If you don't resist, you're not willing to do harm. Drop your weapons and be quiet."

Indeed, if you were willing to kill from the beginning, you should have used a throwing spear or bow and arrow instead of a descent from the tree or something. There must still have been a way to attack without saying whether or not there was.

That means, really, maybe he was just going to capture it.

But I can't go and get caught saying yes, can I?

Even if capturing is the primary purpose, it does not guarantee future safety, either to make information throw up or to dedicate it to the Evil God while living as a sacrifice.

Besides, in the first place, I had no reason to catch you.

Now that they knew they weren't demons, there was room for The Red Vow.

Although his physical abilities are superior to those of humans, he is a pretty inferior beast man in magic. So I would have tried to disable the two sorcerers first, but that prospect crushed.

Perhaps, nevertheless, the opponent should be underestimating the 'Red Vow', and even insulting it to the two avant-gardes of a human, but also of a little girl, and two runaway mages. Think of it as just a suicide bombing of a buddy, even as you watch two of your buddies get knocked down in front of you...

"If you don't resist, I won't kill you. Sleep on the ground and turn your stomach up."

"" "" Nah... ""

To Lena's words, men of stunned beasts.

I can't help it. It is, in any case, the most humiliating, "pose of total obedience" for the beast man. It was nothing like being able to do to a human little girl.

Of course, there's no way a know-it-all Lena wouldn't know that. It was clearly a provocation.

I have trouble handling prisoners here, and I don't think I'll honestly follow them. So he tried to bring it in a quick way, that is to say, into battle. In the form of 'the opponent has attacked me, so I have no choice but to defend myself'......

But this doesn't mean anything about Lena's arbitrariness.

It is a pattern that we all thought of as one of the ways to deal with various cases.

Of course, I'm not going to kill you. It is an operation based on various considerations.

It was Lena, who suddenly became mighty the moment she knew her opponent was not a demon tribe.

"Ko, this...... My little girl is in a bad mood..."

Four of our enemies approached us as the Lenas threw up cowhites they had heard so many times before.

The weapon is not the sword, but the likeness of a bamboo. Perhaps it's not meant to be combat, it's just a tool to act in the woods.

Miles are definitely stronger than enemies first.

Mavis, too, would have no problem if he was careful and in that 'True/Divine Speed Sword' mode.

And Pauline and herself, while defending themselves with staff, can fight in their favor by using a lot of short chanting magic that greatly decreases in power but can shoot quickly. If I could afford it, I might be able to use some more powerful magic. And the first shot has already ended up chanting in my head without speaking out in a chant, putting the activation on hold.

Two of the enemies who seem to be hiding, Miles should know. There is no problem.

That's what Lena thought, sticking out her left arm, palms facing up, her middle finger choked, choked and moved.

Yes, the trick was a sign of provocation.
