I Said Make My Abilities Average!
289 Elf's Escort 6
Breakfast was done easily with sturdy bread and dried meat. The soup is made with proper chopped vegetables and meat pieces instead of the unsavory 'ingredients of the soup'.
This alone is a luxurious category for a hunter's outdoor breakfast. Normally, I don't have time to boil some relaxing hot water and make soup on a rushed morning in preparation for departure, but the "Red Vow" was a luxury I could only afford because there were three users of water boiling magic.
Then quickly withdraw the bedding and start the investigation. As yesterday, the client takes various records, examines the objects under investigation he finds, collects some, leaves some things intact and leaves. And when they thought it was time for noon.
"Stop! Gentlemen, hurry up and assemble!
Miles instructed everyone in a slightly panicked, but small voice.
Hearing that, the three "Red Vows" originally rushed under the mile, as did the two clients and the face of the "Blue Meteor". Of course, because Miles hastily instructed him to whisper, everyone is also guessing and taking care not to make a voice or sound.
"Seventeen oaks, fast approaching! I've already noticed this one. Sorry, the enemy distance (range) was too short to detect due to the use of Exploratory Magic!
Miles apologizes for saying that, but it was a big deal just to discover it beforehand and prevent an ambush.... in public common sense.
"Not good, too many! If it's not an ambush from here, we can deal with four or five at a time. If we can scatter our enemies and destroy each and every one of them, we won't have a problem, but when we get here together, we can even get our hands on backup and employer's direct defense!
Lena and Pauline stick to their employers, fixed turrets, and the avant-garde. Protect the mages and their employers! Magic attacks are primarily aimed at breaking up enemies, so that there are no more than four or five opponents at a time that we fight around! More than a single shot of power, more than a hand count! If you can afford it, weaken the enemy with a range attack. If you can afford more, reduce the number with a single attack!
There's no way that the first party I've ever set up can suddenly put up a joint front or something. It is best to fight each one with a role sharing. And the first priority is to ensure the safety of employers and the second priority is the protection of magicians and their effective use. Putting both in one place is easy to do as a protective side.
While some of the hunters made their safety a top priority, the instructions in the graph were a request priority and were sincere.
Due to the number of people at the party, their experience since reaching C-rank, etc., this time the general commander is naturally the leader of "Blue Meteor" Graph. Based on what happened during the pre-rubbing match, I accepted the "Red Vow" after deciding that there was no particular problem with the command of the graph's battle, but my eyes were on the laners with dots to the ability of the graph beyond my imagination from what I've seen so far.
"Mobile defense…"
And it's some mileage of impression.
"You're not as big a deal as an oak. We're going in, we're going in..."
"No, this place should follow the orders of the escort commander,"
Mavis blocked Lena's fluent words.
"This is a joint two-party order, and the escort commander is Lord Graff. And not in keeping with his usual words and deeds, Lord Graff's command is firm. It wouldn't be a good idea for us to act discreetly here and cause confusion. Besides, shouldn't we be learning to do what others tell us to do?
"Ugh..."
It was an honest argument. Exactly. Neither could Lena, as the longest hunter in The Red Vow, deny it.
... But that said, neither of them intended to 'keep what they were told to be foolish and honest, and' blue meteors' would not leave their places in crisis', etc. Miles and Pauline, of course.
We tried to maximize everyone's power under the command of the graph, and if that seemed to put employers and escort buddies in a dangerous state, we were going to immediately move to arbitrary and dedicated mode.
"Coming!
Immediately after the mile warning, a flock of oaks appeared from among the trees.
Since intelligence is not very well developed, do you not have the idea that everyone is together and at the same time, or did you consider that such consideration is not necessary for the weak human appearance of which the majority are 'females', the orcs coming in with a splash back and forth due to the difference in the speed at which they have been running? It is a great help to 'Blue Meteor'.
"Earth Needle!
"Ice Needle!
Lena and Pauline, who had already finished chanting in their brain, activated the magic of the needle (needle) system.
The name is similar, but the former is due to the solidification of the soil and the latter is due to ice, which is completely different due to its magical attributes. Lena, who could not use the fire magic she was good at in the woods, had to use the earth magic.
Those range magic crossed a few of the leading oaks into the mountains and poured down on the oaks behind them.
Needle-based attack magic is far from a one-strike special, or power, but the orcs who tried to protect their faces from the downpouring magic attack stopped and there was room between them and the lead. as requested from 'Blue Meteor'.
"Earth Nails!"
Magician Maleiwen unleashed the earthly magic 'Earthnail'.
Ammo count and range of attack are inferior to the needle system, but damage dealt to enemies is better. That said, it is the same as the Needle system that does not have enough power to defeat the oak, but it is of great help to the avant-garde that they stop the enemy's momentum and further cut the enemy's fighting power.
Three enemies with 7 abilities are safer to defeat than two enemies with 9 abilities, even though an avant-garde with 10 abilities will deal with them. So this is not a single-attack magic such as Earth Javelin, the power is weak but widespread magic is right to reduce the fighting power of an entire small group of enemies, and I have no anxiety whatsoever that I will not reduce the number of enemies directly due to the trust that the three avant-gardes will ensure that the enemy is stopped and not allowed to pass to me, which is the rear guard.
And Kesbert of the Middle Guard quickly shot in the bow and arrow before pulling out his dagger and joining the avant-garde formation. The bow is worn on his back, and he does not throw it around it, like a bowman in 'Servant of the Goddess'.
... Perhaps he also thought it was very likely that he would be trampled in this situation.
It was the avant-garde formation of "Blue Meteor" that attacked three heads, the first of the orcs that were already scratched before they fought and whose fighting power was diminishing, but because the second of the orcs attacked faster than they thought, it was thought that the "Blue Meteor" that had not yet defeated the first was in danger.
"Earth Javelin!"
"Isicle Lance!!
Two attack magic was unleashed and pierced by two oaks.
The distance between the magic attackers was remote and the range magic would not have been used for fear of accidental firing because of the 'blue meteor' and the close position of the oak already. And it wasn't Lena and Pauline who unleashed that offensive magic.
... Yes, many elves have relatively good magic skills in humans, and there was no reason why employers should not take part in the fight.
"Miles, can you ask for this place?
Suddenly, Mavis asked me to go for miles like that.
Here, Lena and Pauline, as well as the Elf's attacking wizard, are both on direct defense with miles where magic and swords can be used to stretch a strong barrier. Now, I don't think there's any danger to my client and to Lena and the others. So Mavis thought of going to help himself with the Blue Meteor.
As it is, I would have been unbearable as Mavis' character to think that I would have ended up just standing there poking at him. Besides, "Blue Meteor" is by no means weak, but because of the excessive number of oaks, it seemed a little dangerous when it became confusing and difficult to provide magical support from remote locations.
"Yes, I'll put up a barrier if I have to, so it's okay!
I don't have a barrier stretched so I can shoot attack magic from here right now, but if it's miles, stretching the barrier will only take a second. So Miles, who was just as worried about the 'blue meteor' as Mavis, accepted Mavis' request in a mundane reply.
"I'll help you!
"Ooh, that helps!
Mavis' participation was in the form of ignoring the extraction of the graph, but he would have decided that the battle was fine with water, the rest of the formation beyond, and to be honest, it was unlikely to hold up as it was. And Mavis' participation here seemed to me, um, five of the "Blue Meteors" who were watching the demonstration at the Guild's dismantling yard, to have enough power to bring the tilted balance back to the other side.
And Mavis didn't live up to that expectation.
With attacking magic and the hard work of "Blue Meteor," Oak has considerably reduced the number.
It's not an orga, it's a much lower orc than an orga.
A few oaks head for the client and the Lenas, but they have miles, so there's nothing to worry about. Perhaps Lena or someone will shoot in the attack magic, so there won't even be a turn for miles. Whatever Miles and Pauline are, Lena will be in a bad mood later if she doesn't turn up, so it's just fine.
About a few oaks, I don't even have to use 'Micros'. Enough with "True and Divine Speed Sword" just to work out the power of your chi.
Supporting with attack magic would be difficult with enemy allies intertwined, but such things are not necessary for enemies to this extent. Let's support the Blue Meteor people so they don't get hurt...
With that in mind, Mavis looks a little on track for a long time to come into play.
And neither did the Miles expect Mavis to fall behind like an oak, turning their attention to a few of the oaks coming at them. And......
"Guh!"
Mavis stopped moving after an oak blow.
Whether he was alarmed or an unintentional blow from a blind spot, a blow to the right flank from the rear was thought to have definitely snapped Mavis' ribs.
I don't know if the broken ribs were piercing my gut, but that meant stopping Mavis from moving, and stopping him from moving on the battlefield of the mixed war, meant 'death' for sure.
Crush from the weak. That's the iron rule of battle, and the less intelligent oak, that much I understood.
And while Miles and the others weren't noticing anything strange, a few oak attacks focused on Mavis.
