19 Stories: Bandit Exorcism ①

Immediately after breaking up with Mize and the others, he activated Ligament (Reggie) and ran through the woods.

While on the road, I was finding a few great spots (points), so I headed to the nearest place. Ignoring the animals and demons lurking in the woods, he lay low and alerted his surroundings.

And - I put "Communication Paper" in my ear, which has been in the receiving state ever since.

"Is that Chris? Sorry, I couldn't get out because I was beside the escort."

'I guess. Sorry to keep you busy, but more than ten groups are leaving King's Capital right now for the woods where you are. Although there is no certainty because it did not make good contact, information was received that some of the equipment is very similar to the example thief. If that group is the enemy...'

"Oh...... process"

Cut off communication with Chris and put 'communication paper' in his pocket.

"Has this... moved in earnest"

I guess Mize predicted the time to leave the King's Capital.

Hide your body in the bushes and check the appearance of your enemies from between the branches.

A hundred meters away, he saw a group of more than ten people wrapped around a reddish brown coat.

The enemies lurking in Castle Town were searching for assassination gear, but the enemies approaching this time are slightly different. What was visible inside the coat was a rugged sword with a large area, a metal armor that protected the hands and feet. I assume a flashy battle no matter what you think. Worst of all, I guess I'm prepared not to quit fighting directly from the front either.

Whatever it is in the middle of the Wang capital, fighting somewhat rough in this vast forest will not get your attention. Sure, it's just the right opportunity to go on offense.

"… for once, check your gear"

I've worn the exact same coat as the thief I took down before, so I'm probably the enemy, but I'll check a little more carefully just in case.

Pass magic through the black bracelet wrapped around your left wrist.

I haven't used it since I got escort duty, but it gradually came to pass here.

- BF28 "Black Feather to Eight".

A black sniper wand appears.

It's a magic fixture with a trigger and a 'telescopic crystal' attached to a black rod-shaped wand. From the tip of the cane there are three twisted feather-like thorns that pop out to draw a spiral, with elongated, pointed black crystals embedded in its center. The center of the crystal lit a slightly dark-green light.

After you have adjusted your posture, capture the appearance of your enemies in "Farsighted Crystals".

Inside the coat were shortcuts and poisons that the thief always possessed. Its poison, made of special materials that cannot be collected around here, has complex colors that are rare in appearance.

"... you're an enemy"

Fighting in the castle towns was dispersed in the decimal because the enemy also assumed covert action, which allowed them to be cleaned up before they could be linked. But this time, you have to defeat multiple opponents at once.

- A little, maybe a little hassle.

It is impossible to defeat this number by sniping alone.

I think of several maneuvers in my head, but none of them will be as good as they have been.

Mize's position is about eight hundred meters back.

If the enemy had a long-range shooter, would the final line of defense be five hundred meters in the rear? From what I've seen, some have magic wands, but no one has sniper wands, so snipers won't have to be on guard.

- I just have to do it.

Can we just give up?

There is no point in those questions.

Don't lick it.

I'm still the... the man who killed the Demon King.

Fourteen men were walking on the plains, hiding their faces and bodies in a reddish brown coat.

The rubbing sound of the armor is deafening. But with a serious mission, they don't make weak noises during the operation.

The target is in the woods.

"It should be."

At the end of the men's gaze was a vast forest.

Securing the target's stature. That was the mission given to the men.

Until now, because the target had only spent time in the city, the men had been forced to act in small numbers to avoid the gaze of third parties. But not this time. If you're in the woods away from the city, you won't get noticed where there's some noise.

"Don't let your guard down. Perhaps there's an escort by the target."

In one word, several men ascertain their own armaments.

The men also knew there was a defenseless escort beside the target. But the men know neither the face nor the name of the escort.

I've never been over alert - this time, unlike in the city, I have full gear and double-digit numbers.

It was the men's idea that there was no way to lose this.

Keep walking silently on the plains without slapping me in the mouth for nothing.

At that time - mixed with the swing of the wind and the twitching of the little bird - there was a strange sound of "pan".

The next moment, one man died.

"Become!?

A man walking in front of me suddenly made a hole in that skull.

I see a fellow who collapses off his knees and finishes his activity, and an upset runs into that group.

Sniper!

"Damn, where there is no shield!?

Men who stop too much upset.

Immediately afterwards, there is another bursting sound of something.

"Hih!?

And another man fell down on the ground, and fell down.

Just like the first one, he's got a beautiful hole in his head.

"Run! We're going into the woods!

Run down the plain to the woods at the end of your gaze.

In the meantime, one, two and a sniper victim also showed up. I don't have time to hear the will. If you do that, you're the next one to die.

"Calculate the sniper's position from the earlier sniper!

A man running the lead screams.

"There he is! Two o'clock, high ground a hundred meters away!

"You're closer than I thought... I'm going to put you down! The target could be beside us!

The men head toward the high ground at once.

Ahead, there was a man with feathers in a black coat - a too-eight.

"Are you here?"

There are nine men left. Five people died in sniping.

There is a black sniper wand on the right arm of the little grunting too-eight. The men's gaze was drawn to that magic fixture for a moment, and the next moment, he revealed his vigilance.

"Target!?

"Later! Kill the sniper first!

In response to the impending men, Too Eight smiled invincibly and miniaturized his sniper wand.

A man wearing a reddish brown coat activates Ligament and pulls out his sword.

A wave of sword flashed reflecting the greenery of the trees.

But faster than that sword cleaves the body of Tuate - there will be an explosion.

"Become!?

All of a sudden, the ground around Tuate rose and exploded violently.

Three men scatter their lives in an explosion.

"Explosion...... wah, it's a trap!?

"Damn, you're going to draw us from the start - huh!?

The explosive trap (Bomb Trap), a fixed-point installation system planted on the surrounding ground, detonated simultaneously.

Two more men disappear from the blast.

From the beginning, Tuate had carried out sniping on the premise of inviting his enemies to this high ground.

In other words, this high ground is a battlefield prepared by Tuate. The men understood it and understood that this situation was uneven.

"Once we're out of here!

The dust wrapped up by the explosion fills the sight of the men.

In the dust, the black shadow swayed loosely.

"Hi-yah!?

"Are you all right!? Goddamn it, I don't see anything! - Guh!?

Distracted by the smokescreen of the sand, Too Eight handled the remaining thieves quickly.

Flesh thin in one step using "Ligament" to the man who retreats. He wears a man's neck with a blade created in Materialization.

"Retreat anyway! We have no targets here!

A man escaped the dust screamed.

I can't imagine an escort hiding in this place where the bomb was planted.

The two surviving men turned their backs on Too Eight and left the scene.

"You can't let them get away with this."

The two fleeing, Too Eight goes after them.
