When I entered the tent, there was Virgil and Angelica inside.

"Are you here? I'm sorry I'm tired of solo marching, but let me just talk about future policy."

"I don't mind that. Does Angelica's presence mean she's going to explore her place of residence?

"Oh, yeah. Well, that's as good as nothing else."

The position never collapsed, 'in the middle' in the woods, but at the end of the woods, seven people, including me, stormed out. The oak in the woods was annihilated, and the oak outside the woods was repelled. That's how many orcs escaped. The trace should continue to the perfect place to stay.

"To be honest, there's no need for me to go on exploration. Oak's legs are making their way to their place of residence."

Sighing, Angelica says. I did do it all over again with all this force. But that's where our guard comes in.

"There might be a booby trap or something, and you should look into it without alarm. Take your mind off it and you'll have a painful counterattack."

"There's nothing left to do around here. There are some words left by the brave men of old to win and tighten their helmets."

I wonder if the Japanese were summoned a long time ago... but that's another story. Let's concentrate on getting rid of the oak now.

"So Angelica and the Valley Bottom Squad are asked to go out and explore their places of residence. The rabbits need to rest until then."

Copy that.

Copy that.

Yeah, we're finally going to be able to slow down. I've beaten a good number of oaks, so I'm done. I'm sure you're on a higher level. What an expectation.

"Hmm... don't worry about it"

I came to the tent for a break and I lay down. I take my status card out of my pocket. I couldn't sleep because I was concerned.

"Status Open"

My current status appears when I complain the usual way.

"You're up plain..."

There has been a significant feeling of price increase so far, but this time it was pretty plain. After all, consuming a large amount of substandard experience won't lead to much leveling. Speaking of which, Daniela also said that when you get to this level, it comes up slower or something...... if so, it would be awesome to say the other way around that it's also up 4.

If you look closely, the Great Swordsmanship and the Night's Eye are also up. I've been using it for quite a while... I have trouble if it's not up there. I guess I'll even raise the dagger next time the Great Sword can be used to feel good...... well it's still a long way off.

When I was able to check the status I was worried about, the sleeper suddenly attacked me out of relief and tiredness. I gave myself up and let go of consciousness, praying that there was no Orc raid.

□ □ □ □

Well, where shall I explain it from? I'm in an oak residence right now. It's an oak in front of me. He is an abnormal evolutionary individual. He called himself "King of Orcs," and called himself "Arthur". He is in a dungeon in the basement of his residence, halfway down the aisle leading to the bottom of the valley.

"Help me! Get me out of here!

It's too suspicious. We'll still have to start where our adventurers left off for a place to stay.

Time goes back to this morning.

□ □ □ □

Blurred by the sound of a gazagoso, consciousness is evoked, lifting the heavy lid at all costs to explore the cause. It was the face that opened the tent and peered into my face.

"Ahhh!?

"... what, who?

Blurry eyes rubbed, slowly clear vision, consciousness. And recognize the person. The unsub's identity was Laurier.

"Laurier......?

"Oh, uh..."

Obviously suspicious behavior. I look around after releasing the gushing absences unbearably. It's a little bright outside the tent. Is it time for a place called Dawn? There are no other people around. [M] Seems like some of them were asleep when I came in... are they awake already? Does that mean I'm the last one, and Laurier's here to wake me up that doesn't come out...?

"You're here to wake me... Huh... Thanks"

"Eh, yeah, well! Morning!"

"... so what did you try to do to me sleeping?

"Hmmm!?

You don't need to behave so suspiciously if you're just going to wake me up, and the face that was in front of me when I woke up. I'm not blunt, so I can tell right away... but there must be no misunderstanding. This is something I have to tell you from her mouth. I'm not having any fun.

"So?"

"Hey, the... I won't wake up, because"

"Because you won't wake up?

"Ugh... Um, sorry... Forgive me already..."

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no Really, I need to hear it from Laurier. Look, you don't forgive me or not for not knowing what's going on, do you? Look, Laurie, can you say it right? Come on, come on!"

Me against Laurier, who leans bright red to her ears. Either fulfill and eventually beg forgiveness.

"Hey, you idiot. Come on out."

"Good morning, Daniela."

Chip, I wanted to play some more, but I can't help it if Daniela comes.

"Come on... Laurier, how long have you been doing that? Let's get out of here."

"Ugh... Asshole Fool..."

Daniela walks in front of Laurier, who follows her as she turns bright red, claws at my medulla oblongata. withstand the pain and head towards the square while some new doors are about to open. Because there were a lot of adventurers out there.

"So, they found you?

"Oh, Angelica and the others came back earlier. With a souvenir."

"Souvenirs?"

Daniela laughs like a prank when she looks back, worried about the words.

If you go, you'll see.

"Hmm?

Imagine the contents of the souvenir in the words, scratching the adventurer and moving forward. I'm sure Virgil and the valley bottom squad will be lining up to explain the future.

"... so I'm going to go to my place of residence!

It's Virgil's voice.

"All we have to do is destroy them! Don't be alarmed!

Vision opens where Angelica's voice is heard. As expected, Virgil, Angelica and Laurier came to wake me up, so behind me. Olive and oregano stand side by side. And next to it...

"Ness!"

Ness, who was missing, stood arm in arm. Son of a bitch, you're alive!

"Asagi, you're worried sick."

"Oh, my God, I was so worried you were dead!

"Heh, I often say to the habit of sleeping gussy!

Mm, there's no gu noise either. But you were super tired, and you definitely weren't!

The adventurers around them gather for each unit. The surviving Ness of the ground squad, which was wiped out in it, was to be assigned to a lightweight unit. Ask him what he was doing until he got there.

"So? What trick did you survive?

"One thing I can tell you is that I was super lucky."

After finding traces, Ness and the others were struck by an oak. I could have noticed it critically, but they scattered the squad in scattered pieces, almost unintentionally. When Ness, who was lucky enough to escape, searched the area on guard, he found an adventurer fleeing the oak. That's the other missing person I couldn't find. Apparently the adventurer was killed by an orc.

Ness, who realized that many of them were passive, ran even without an oak. northward in a manner away from the residence expected to be near the end of the valley. And what I found was a place like a village surrounded by trees. That was where we sought to stay.

"Like me, I never thought I'd hit an oak habitat before I ran away, and I thought I'd die."

But luckily there came the scouts of the valley bottom squad. They were in contact while looking into each other with signs sensing. What would have happened if this was the normal adventurer opponent? Plus, there's a timing problem. If it were a little later, sooner... Ness could have been hit by an orc.

Apparently, the valley bottom squad that found Ness turned right back after making sure the settlement in front of him belonged to the oak.

"That's why I was lucky. I'm sorry about the other ground crew..."

"If you say so, it's on me."

Reminds me of the three of them then.

"I heard that. But hey, Rabbit. Well, then, you can't do it. You can't even carry three people in Gardo."

"Yes, but... I was helping you for a while. Isn't it natural to have remorse?

When I say that, Ness looks at me and says.

"Asagi, I'm not telling you to forget. But break it off. I'm not telling you to keep your emotions down. But break it off. Or you, you'll rub less, rub less, and you'll end up killing yourself. I've seen them like that. So I know. You're gonna kill yourself one day."

"... Me, I killed a man before I got to the replant. He was a bandit attacking a carriage. It's the first time I've killed him. And he dropped the chief's neck. Then it got depressing, but one girl was helped by me killing a bandit. When I saw her alive, I wondered what she meant... I thought she was saved."

I repeatedly said thank you while holding Mariel in my chest. That word also meant thank you for taking me out of the swamp of sin.

"Then I felt more special thoughts about people's lives and deaths. I broke it off that killing was necessary. But there's still something I can't tell you about something I couldn't save."

"Right there. It's something we need to get over as the rabbit lives ahead of us."

"Oh, yeah. I must overcome them with their death. Well, it might take a while."

Death in our hearts, food. We live. It's not just adventurers. So are those bandits.

"Thank you, Ness. I'm so glad you're alive."

"Come on, I lived to live. It's not for you!

Still slapping me in the back for saying that. Ness, who survived the death of his companion for food, had a full smile.
