Kujonin

Climb the cliffs to the south of the Great Plains and you'll find a dense jungle.

I spent three days there collecting monster blood, looking for strong monsters. The Blood of the Monster is needed for the experiment of my colleague Bertha, so I have it from the monster I defeated.

Even though I'm carefully sharpening my senses in the jungle, my bikini armor doesn't stop scratching. The leaves of the plant are hard and scraping my skin like a stick.

Along with the healing medicine, the monster grease is applied to the body to make it as slippery as possible, but then the small worm monster gets closer. It was cut off when I entered the distance of my sword, but there was a lot of it.

Naoki said that some worm monsters infect powerful diseases, so you can't be alarmed.

Speaking of Naoki, his presence changed my life a lot.

It is strong even though it does not pursue strength, and it does not currently appear to be an exterminator who is responsible for the development of the southern part of the Great Plains.

I said, "Naoki, what do you want to do? When I asked, I said," It was an extension of the extermination of the brave, so it couldn't be helped. "In the first place, even the" Extermination of Heroes "requested by God is strange. Even though I'm not a devout religious man, I can't even get in touch with gods and evil gods. I've actually seen the evil god, so I think what Naoki is saying is true, but from the perspective of others, it's only the crazy one.

I was originally a guild official who lived in the countryside of Arisfei, but I came to this place.

"That's what I wanted..."

While convincing herself, she searched for a strong opponent.

Honestly, there was no one stronger than me in the coliseum of this country. The Gladiators were incapacitated in a single swing, and the monsters were frightened by our strangulation. In the end, I was banned from entering and exiting.

I knew it wasn't simply about strength or level, but I had no idea how I could get strength like Naoki.

I tried battling a large monkey monster in the jungle, but it didn't have any stamina, so I was tired and couldn't stand it. This may be natural because we have both physical and sword skills, but I definitely don't want to admit that we can't grow any more and close the gap with Naoki.

Is there still not enough 'hunger'?

A few years after I jumped out of my parents' house. I have never been pushed into a situation where I am blessed with a job and have no food.

Poof!

Once again, I truncated the approaching worm monster.

The purple fluid stuck to the grass stretching from the ground. It must be poison.

Naoki doesn't hesitate to use poison. This worm monster also uses poison to survive.

"I hesitate..."

Cavalier. One-on-one battles. Prestige. A way to fight with all your might. Things come to my mind that I thought I had thrown away.

"There's no need for such a thing in this jungle." We're all fighting to survive. "

When I looked at it, all the monsters and plants in front of me seemed to teach me how to fight.

The snake monster who had abandoned its limbs moved freely, the flying monster had a bird's eye view, and the bee monster had the poison of a single hit. And the plants bring forth sweet fruits, and bring together the monsters, that they may leave offspring. There is a battle with the plants that grow next to each other about how the soil absorbs moisture in the ground. The rough leaves that hurt my skin will certainly also play a role.

"I see, Bertha's in trouble." This is interesting. "

After that, I immersed myself in the jungle, sometimes delivering the blood of monsters to Bertha.

What was more interesting was that the plants that grew greatly depending on the terrain and location were different, and the monsters that came were also different. A little valley is completely different from a strong plant on a mountain. As if the terrain made it so, I remembered the theory of the battlefield I had read as a child. The theory was that the terrain and the weapons in hand would change the state of war. In the case of plants, it leads to fertility and becomes a herd.

In addition, there are many ferns in shadowy places, and the temperature is slightly lower than other places, so it seems that it is difficult to become a passage for large monsters. When the temperature drops, it moves slower and is more likely to be targeted by other monsters. On the contrary, it was suitable for hiding, or there were many small monsters. I saw a lot of kinds of monsters I hadn't seen before.

"Wonder. It's more than killing big monsters."

Maybe there's no place but the jungle that's so interesting to know. Even though it has been in the ordinary forest many times, I didn't think that whether it was aware of the terrain would change what I saw.

If I could look at the terrain and see the way the monsters would go, I could just ambush them and take them down.

On the other hand, what happens if I make my own passage? It didn't take long to do it.

I wonder if this is a terrain-based fight...... maybe this is a different way of fighting than Naoki.

I felt like I'd found a clue.

A few days later, I was a total slayer in the jungle. There are a lot of monster corpses in the bag.

"Hah..."

For the first time in a long time, a pleasant lethargy has assailed me.

Maybe your body wants to sleep because your level has risen.

Unusual in the jungle, I found only rotten trees growing from the soft ground. There was no sign of a monster. I often leaned against the tree to take a break and closed my eyes.

I think Naoki contacted me after sunrise. When I realized it, my body was buried on the ground.
