Legend

The tornado disappears in front of the Rays.

That tornado, wrapped in thunder, was an impeccable power to call it precisely the advanced magic of the wind.

And most surprisingly, there will still be room for Elaine despite all the magic she has unleashed.

It appeared to Elaine, who set up a concatenated sword and prepared for unforeseen circumstances, that from Ray's eyes it was still possible to fight.

That's where General Princess is.

Prepare yourself for another time when Ray will have to similarly set up a death size while raising his admiration inside.

In a remote location, Ver is similarly wary of his enemies as he squeezes his bow with Custe and arrows on his watch pulling out the demon spear that pierced the ground.

I open my mouth so Elaine can only hear Ray as she watches the tornado disappear in that state.

"Ray, do you know that monster exists?

"No, it was the first monster I saw. But my perception as an adventurer isn't that high, so it's also possible that I simply didn't know. What about Master Elaine?

"No, it's the first monster I've ever seen, too. But it's a monster that's so strong. You can spread the word."

"Ability to blend into the surrounding scenery first seen. Ordinary adventurers would be literally fed without realizing anything if they were ambushed using that one. Isn't that why it didn't spread? And even if we fought normally, that monster was strong enough."

"I guess. How much do you see it?

"I think it's okay to say that at least one of the things I fought for was the oak king class..."

"Rank B monster oak king class? I do have the impression that it's more than B and less than A."

When I'm wary when I have to, I talk, and eventually the tornado of thunder disappears completely.

All that remained was the carcass of a giant kamakiri chopped up by a tornado and burned down by lightning at the same time.

"Did you manage,"

Elainea exhales in relief. Next to it, Ray also lowers the death-size he had set up. The same was true of Custe and Ver.

Elaine gives instructions to everyone in the soothing air just after the battle is over.

"Custe, heal Ara with restorative magic. Ver, you got that Kamakiri demon stone..."

But Elaine couldn't speak until the end.

"Dear Elaine!

The stunned voice of Custe echoed around.

The three men who were there turned their gaze toward Custe, and then toward him whose gaze was pointed.

"... what?

Unexpectedly leaking Ray's voice.

Originally there should have been a rolling body of Kamakiri who lost his life because of Elaine's magic.

... No, I have the body. It only says' Not yet '.

"It's melting, you say?

Yes, the huge Kamakiri carcass, the size of which exceeds 4m as Ray accidentally murmured, rapidly collapses into its appearance as fine bubbles emerge from all over.

The speed was not so fast as to say instantly, but it was not so slow that something could be dealt with.

And from where the kamakiri melts, there is a irritating odor drifting through my nose as if I were going to stick it through my nose, and the grass that was growing from the ground also browns and discolors while I see it touching the liquid flowing out of the kamakiri corpse and dissolves just like the kamakiri corpse.

"This... what the hell is going on?

Elaine leaks a blatant voice, but those who can answer it were not present on this occasion.

In the meantime, Custe approaches Elaine as she detours far around where Kamakiri's body was.

"Dear Elaine. I don't know what my current existence is, but I don't think this smell that drifts from there at all is good for my health. I thought we should leave this place immediately."

"Um, sure. If I could, I'd like to take a piece of it to find out what that monster is..."

At the tip of Elaine's gaze, which seemed mindless, even one piece of Kamakiri's flesh had already disappeared completely, and there was not even a liquid that melted the grass that was around it already existed. All that's left is a stink of irritation poking your nose. And the wind will scatter before even that irritating smell is so far away.

Until a few minutes ago, we were fighting monsters. Elaine frowns unexpectedly when she sees that the figure has already disappeared completely.

discomfort. Yes, only strong discomfort remains in its chest.

That's why there are no bodies of giant kamakiri anymore to check the cause of that discomfort, and even if you're here more than that, you're just going to spend some time for no reason.

"I'm leaving. Custe, put Arla in the carriage."

"I'll take care of it"

Custe lifts Arla, who is passing out near the carriage, following Elaine's orders.

"Ver, check the carriage for any anomalies."

"I'll take care of it."

Ver responds in a light tone, as usual, and examines the carriage and your podium.

"Ray asks for perimeter vigilance just in case with Seto. It's not like there's only one of them."

"Okay."

Ray also nods, and with Seto takes a little distance from the carriage and concentrates on the surrounding signs and sounds.

"Gru."

Seto was also equally vigilant around beside Ray.

In the meantime, Ray thinks inside while clarifying his ears and allowing him to wield a death size against his enemies at any time.

(That kamakiri, wouldn't apply to the brackets of a monster for less)

Monsters do not disappear in the first place as if they were going to blow themselves up at the moment of their defeat. Demons, monsters, warcraft. There are many ways to call them things, but in a broad sense, they are all creatures.

(And yet that kamakiri is as if to extinguish its own existence...... wait. Now what did I think? Extinct your own existence? Does that mean you want to hide the fact that you existed?

Thinking like that, I notice one sign approaching me from behind, and I turn to you.

What was there was Ver approaching with one hand up.

"There's nothing unusual about the carriage, so it's time to go. Lady Elaine wants to see you."

Ver tells me just how tired he is that he doesn't get his usual light after a fight with that giant Kamakiri.

Nodding at the words, Ray also went with Seto to the carriage.

"Hey, Ray. You're an adventurer, aren't you? What do you think, Kamakiri?

That's what Ver asks Ray on his way back to the carriage. Ray shakes his head small on the question.

"That's refreshing. At least the monsters I know don't melt like that as soon as they die."

"Right. I've fought monsters a few times before, but I've never seen them melt as soon as I knock them down."

"... I don't even know if that's a monster."

"Huh?"

It was just a whining word in his mouth with Bosori, and that's what Ver would ask again, as if he couldn't even hear it, but Ray was going to the carriage pretending he didn't hear the question.

"Are you here? Then we'll leave soon. I don't care what you think, even if there's no evidence, it's an anomaly. Surely there was a guild outpost around the dungeon?

"Yes, that's what happened with the information I bought over here."

I guess I woke up from a fainting, that's how I answered Elaine's question as if Arla had been somewhere awkward.

"Ah, Lord Ray.... I'm sorry I pulled your leg"

And as soon as I see Ray, I quickly bow my head.

Ray smiles bitterly when he realizes he was ashamed to have passed out after apparently taking a blow from Kamakiri.

"Never mind. That Kamakiri had at least a rank B monster level of strength. If we do that without any prior knowledge, we can't help but take unconsciousness."

"But..."

Pure, to put it well. To put it badly, Ray laughs bitterly that only one of himself would have passed out on Ara, such as a swine rush.

In fact, that giant Kamakiri could not blame Ara or laugh because he was out of standard because he tried to be transparent and could carry out attacks similar to flying slaughter with all four sickles.

"Why don't you think Ara proved his strength and danger with that, so he didn't do any more damage?

"Dear Elaine..."

To comfort her... rather than to say the facts, Ara turns her gaze toward Elaine.

"Absolutely, what happened to your usual good health? You're also the moodmaker of this unit, and the atmosphere just darkens when you're like that, right? And if you think you've made a mistake this time, you can take it back. Isn't that right? If it's not the usual Ara, that's how I think positively, and that's why I prefer it."

"Yes, I understand! Next time I'll show you Elaine's helpfulness!

Listen to the encouragement of Elaine, who is heartbroken, and get back on her feet at an almost reflexive pace, Ara. Even as she smiles bitterly at the way it is, Elaine opens her mouth again.

"Ara, can I get you some tea? For everyone."

"Yes, immediately"

Nodding to Elaine's words, Arla heads toward the cooking area made up of magic items.

Elaine dropped him off with a soft grin.

"You're close."

"Hmm? Oh, sure looks that way. Anyway, I'm in the position of Duke's Lady, but I'm a weirdo in battle. I really don't have a lot of girlfriends. Besides, there are many nobles trying to get into me, but the same is true of those who admire me purely like Ara. Maybe that's why Ara is irreplaceable to me.... I'm telling you, that's not all you're keeping Ara on your side, is it? You know exactly how much arm it is, don't you?

I remember that word of Elaine when I first met her in the city of Gilm.

There is nothing notable about the sharpness or speed of a blow. But its arm strength. Or you could say that a blow like rigidity is just a blow special.

"Surely the strength of that power is a pretty advantageous element in doing melee combat."

"Uhm. But I need Ara to be stronger as a knight who gets my word. And there's nothing to complain about if you can do something about that swine rush."

It was Ray and Elaine who were having a conversation that way, but eventually a cup of tea is softly offered in front of the two of them.

"Sorry to keep you waiting, it's tea"

"Thank you.... Now, everybody listen to me for a second. About that Kamakiri thing.... What did you think?

With that word of Elaine, three people in the carriage will look tough: Ray, Ara and Custe.

The first time I opened my mouth was unexpectedly Custe. Dampen your mouth with black tea before turning your gaze towards chillies and demon spears.

"Even less, you weren't the one I fought alone and could handle. No, rather in retrospect of that battle, I think I was pulling Elaine's leg."

"That's the same for me. I lost my mind with a blow before I could pull my leg off."

To Custe's words, Ara returns the words with a bitter smile.

Given the depressing swing earlier, I guess it's because Ara is the quickest way to recover from it.

"So is combat power, but above all, it's that ability to be transparent. Besides the thoroughness of waiting for me and Seto to realize its existence without moving one step closer. For some reason, Seto's sense of smell didn't detect the odor, and a normal opponent would have a hard time coping with a sickle blow from that transparent state."

"Well, indeed, Lord Ray's ability to be transparent is extremely troublesome. In fact, I was struck by that blow, too. It was mostly luck that prevented that blow."

Compared to speaking to Custe, Ara agrees with Ray in a somewhat stiff tone.

"There were other attacks that were hard to get through because they covered the body like a crust, and there was a way of attacking Ray to skip the slaughter with the same wind magic he used."

Custe groans as he dampens his mouth with tea again.

Basically, I try to ignore Ray's presence, but if it's just about work, it seems different.

"And most of all, the anomaly is after you defeat it. He's the kind of opponent who melts his own body after defeating it and erases his very existence. Not a regular monster.... Ray, you were certainly a wizard apprentice, weren't you? Do you have any idea?

Ray takes Elaine's word for it and immediately remembers her settings.

But the setting is only a setting and not a reality.

"Wait a minute, please. I'll try to remember if anything happened."

Tell Elaine that, and for the first time in a long time, she will draw on Zeppyre's knowledge.

Then for a few seconds, I find the only thing in Zeppyre's knowledge that looks like it.

"I'm not sure about this... or maybe this way I can explain that Kamakiri phenomenon... I've only come up with one thing"

Everyone gives a surprise look to Ray's words, including Elaine.

Even for Elaine, I guess that was the question I just said.

"What's that all about?

"It's if that kamakiri was like a kind of artificial creature made of alchemy. In that case, in the process of building that kamakiri, if you're dying, there's a way to incorporate a trick to hide evidence so that the alchemist's technology doesn't spill out of that carcass."

"... I'm not familiar with alchemy, is that possible?

"It's possible, I can only say. In the first place, I learned very little about alchemy from my master. Even with my current knowledge, I just remembered hearing something like that in the conversation."

"Well, it would be better than having no clue. When it comes to the dungeon, I'll let the guild's outpost know about Kamakiri."

After that, we tried to discuss the Kamakiri case, but there was nothing more than Ray's vague thoughts because there was nothing to prove that the carcass disappeared in the first place.

And that evening. The carriage reaches the village that was made in and around the dungeon.
