Legend

The red slime seemed a little bit remorseless - it just looked like it was from Ray - but returned to the lake.

When the water wolf saw the red slime, he snorted his throat with satisfaction and tried to return to the lake...... but suddenly stopped the movement.

Huh? What's wrong with you?

The researcher's man next to Ray thought the wolf would go back into the lake like this.

But for some reason, it stopped moving suddenly.

I wondered and asked Ray, who was closer to the water wolf than I was.

But Ray also doesn't know why it's happening.

His nose was pointed upwards, as if the water wolf was looking for something, or even looking up.

If this is not a water wolf, but a real wolf or a dog, it can probably be expected that they are sniffing.

However, the water wolf's body is only made of water.

Ray wondered if such a wolf could imitate the smell.

However, if you say that, it is strange at a time when the water wolf, whose body is composed of water, cries out.

Ray predicted that it might be due to magic power, but if he could do such a thing, it wouldn't be strange if he could imitate it like smelling it.

Set, do you know anything about this?

"Gruuuuuuuuuuu"

If the water wolf feels something he doesn't know, maybe he also feels something sharper than himself.

Ray asked, but Set shook his head at Ray's words.

It meant that the water wolf felt something that even Set couldn't feel.

Woooooooooo!

Then, the water wolf suddenly looked at Ray and cried out.... no, that's probably the more correct expression of barking.

(What? The enemy? If I could think of it...)

Ray had a bad feeling.

Even if the water wolf feels something that Set doesn't feel, I don't know what exactly it is.

I don't know, but given the situation, it doesn't matter what happens.

Nielsen, who was a short distance away, hurriedly flew towards Ray, as if his thoughts were to blame.

Seeing Nielsen like that, Ray immediately understands what happened.

"Ray! For a long time..."

"Where are you?"

Under the circumstances that Nielsen seemed to be in a panic, Ray, who had already figured out the reason, asked, trying to block his words.

Nielsen may be right to say that she didn't seem to care about it... no, she didn't have the time to care about it, but she kept speaking anyway.

Between the camp and the lake!

"Also, a lot of pinpoints."... no, that's why the water wolf... "

Ray didn't know why the wolf could detect the presence of the wolf.

I don't know, but given the current situation, I can't afford to be stuck with it.

I try to act now... and I wonder what I should do with the researcher's man.

If you're coming with yourself, of course, it means getting closer.

It is not strange that I want to see how the cradle moves up close, even though I am here to study the cradle.

Even if Ray says he's going to capture it with magic, it's subtle to hear it quietly.

Before I can be captured in the hell of fire created by Ray's magic, I want to see with my own eyes what it's like to be free.

Even so, it was not strange.

What do we do?

"I'll go with you."

The researcher's man returns Ray's words as expected.

The only thing that was different from Ray's prediction was that he immediately went with me without a moment's hesitation.

It must be the only thing that doesn't seem lost that is true to my research mind.

(No way.)

As for Ray, I wanted him to be here if possible.

Or I wanted you to go back to the camp.

But as far as I'm concerned, I'm not very happy, but I don't think I'll follow my own instructions.

That's why, if Ray did something like this, even if Ray wasn't here, he'd probably come after us.

(Is it natural to think about it? I came to the camp to do some research on the birds of prey.)

I didn't feel that much when I was talking, but this man is obviously not normal either.

Otherwise, they would not have come to the camp knowing of the dangers.

There was definitely something in this man that should be called a mere imitation... or recklessness.

"Okay, but don't ever forget that you might die from an encounter more than just coming with me." I don't know if I can help you if you get attacked by a stranger. "

Ray said that for the time being, but the man nodded in response to Ray's words.

Ray was slightly impressed by the way the man looked.

Perhaps this man has some experience of diving into the Shura.

After that, I decided that I didn't have to leave it here, and then I turned to Set and Nielsen.

"Let's go."

Only a short word came out of Ray's mouth.

However, Set and Nielsen could fully understand what to do now with just one short word.

Grrrr!

Okay, okay, okay.

In response to Ray's short remarks, each of us responded briefly, and Ray and the others ran toward the camp.

(In any case, this time it was between the camp and the lake... was there someone?)

This is the rule of thumb, but for Ray, it was the recognition that being in a place where people were.

It was reported that it suddenly appeared on the side of the lake and the camp, which means that there is no one there.

In support of Ray's prediction, two adventurers appeared from the front of Ray's gaze.

"Ray! I knew it!"

One of the adventurers who ran towards Ray shouted so.

Next to the female adventurer who screamed at Ray desperately, the male adventurer shouted backwards.

"It's coming, it's coming, it's coming! Ray, here comes the black sphere! There are three of them!"

As the man said, three black spheres appeared from among the trees growing in the forest.

A black sphere that touches the branches of trees growing in the forest and absorbs them as black dust while chasing two adventurers.

It was clear that they were persistently targeting the two because they had attacked the black circle.

Lei-san, please!

The researcher's man on Ray's side shouts at Ray with anticipation.

If you were a man, you would have thought that three black spheres would be a good catch.

In fact, Ray thought so too.

To capture them with magic, three was just the right number.

Because I thought so, I had doubts about Ray.

At this moment, when you can capture just the right number of pelicans to capture, you can see a good number of pelicans.

This is clearly a favorable development for Ray.

What the hell is going on?

Ray can't seem to accept this situation honestly.

For some reason it's been like this... and that's how I even think it's possible that someone is willing to send me a pest.

(No, that's what I'm thinking right now. We definitely need to defeat them anyway. Besides, it doesn't matter if I'm lost here. On the contrary, the more I get lost, the more my allies will be in danger)

Judging by that, Ray shouted at the two adventurers running.

I'm going to use magic now, so just run around with the pigeons!

"Ughhh!?"

I didn't expect Ray to use magic in this situation.

Nevertheless, this matter is not that much of a problem as long as it can be settled down.

It was a well-established way to defeat the enemy by letting them pursue him and defeat Ray with magic.

In the first place, the movement speed of the black sphere was not so fast.

If you were an adventurer entrusted with escorting the birth tower, it was questionable for Ray to be so upset about the fact that he already understood its existence.

(I don't think anyone who gets upset like this will be assigned to guard the birthplace tower.)

That was all that was purely questionable for Ray.

That said, it doesn't make sense to think like that in this situation.

Since it was already in this situation, it was a top priority to capture it in a hell of a fire and use it as a research object instead of using magic to annihilate it.

"Ah, it's a bit dangerous!"

Ray tried to cast a spell on the Death Size, but suddenly Nielsen's voice turned out to be out of focus.

What the hell is that?

When I turned my gaze to her, the female adventurer almost lost her balance.

Unusual behavior.

The unruly behavior of someone recognized by the guild as a skilled adventurer.

However, this is not a partly maintained ground like a street or city, but a natural ground.

Naturally, the ground is rough, and there are holes and stones falling in some places.

The unbalanced woman almost stepped into the hole.

That's why I lost my balance, but I didn't fall, because that's why the guild has the ability to be recognized as good.

Still, it's definitely dangerous.

Although the black sphere is not moving so fast, it is flying in the air instead of running on the ground.

In other words, it doesn't mean you're unbalanced like a woman.

"Ahhh! This way, come here!" I won't let Swanna do anything! "

A male adventurer screams, picks up a pebble that was falling to the ground and throws it at the black circle that was chasing the woman...... Swanna.

The black circle naturally turned its attention to the man who attacked it, and began to act as if Swanna had completely forgotten.

"Ah....."

Somehow, really, somehow, Ray decides that those two might be lovers.

Why did a black sphere appear halfway between the lake and the camp?

In other words, if those two were old, they would have been on a date.

It would be unacceptable for the man in command to imitate it while it is guarding.

However, being in a camping area means that you are currently on a break, and even if you enjoy your time as a lover at that time, no one can complain.

As a result, I was attacked by a black sphere.

"Alright, just pull the black circle away from the woman and turn towards me!"

The man reacted instantly to Ray's screaming words.

The power to make decisions instantly around here is likely to be as strong as the ability to be entrusted with guarding the Nativity Tower.

Seeing a man with three black spheres coming toward him, Ray began casting a spell in his hand.

"Fire, respond to my thoughts." Thou shalt make a wall, a wall through which no one shall pass, a wall which shall exist on all sides and above and below. And the wall shall be a flame, and not a flame. It's not a flame of destruction, it's a flame that makes you feel warm even when you touch it. As long as my magic power exists, the wall of fire will not disappear. ”

At the same time as the spell was completed, a wall of fire was created in the direction indicated by the death size, surrounding three black spheres, and a wall of fire was created in the front, back, left, right, top, and bottom....

Wall of Fire

The moment the magic is activated, the flame wall moves to cover the target's black circle, completing the cage of flames and hellfire.

By activating magic, Ray's body consumed a lot of magic power, even though he expected it.

However, due to the massive consumption of that magic power, the three black spheres were completely captured by the prison of fire created by Ray.

The three black spheres were desperately trying to escape from the fire, but even if they touched the fire, they would not be absorbed by the black dust, and the black sphere would not seem to be damaged.

"Good. For now, I'll capture you safely..."

Ray muttered in relief at the sight of the inside of the hellfire.

If you put it into a black circle, you won't know what kind of situation you're in right now.

However, as for Ray's perception, he recognizes that there is no such thing as ego in various parts of the body, including the black sphere.

In that sense, you will not be able to determine what kind of situation you are in.

While being seen like that, the black circle kept moving in the hell of fire.
