"... that's it, huh?

"No, they're not."

That's what Ray says back to Elaine whining in front of about 10 bandet goblin bodies that are spreading in front of her.

Gripped in that hand is Death Size, a guilty blade that just cut the body of a bandet goblin, the arm, the leg, and the head as well.

With the Great Sickle in his hand, Ray's gaze is directed at one of the bushes growing around the oasis.

Beyond the desert environment, the presence of this kind of green is unmatched and scarce, and we perceived the signs of its presence beyond the scarce bushes.

"Grrrrrrrrrr"

Seto probably feels the same signs again. He gazes sharply into the back of the bush with eyes that usually deserve to be described as circular while keeping his throat open.

"You know what? There are definitely signs. And then... Shizuku, is this the best thing about him?

Elaine looks sharply into the bush, standing ready to wield a connecting sword at any time.

Even on the other side, you naturally realize that Ray, Elaine and Seto are aware and alert to their presence.

But he doesn't imitate him like he always appears, he just shuts up and stops moving.

Minutes without each other seeing any movement and keeping an odd equilibrium. Eventually Ray, anxious to have no movement, opens his mouth.

"... hey"

"Yeah?"

"I can't help it if I keep doing this, and you want to start attacking me from this side?

"... sure that's the best option as it stands, huh?

There's no way you're ever silently confronting your opponent here more than you're coming to this hierarchy with the request to crusade Spear Frog's anomalous species. Then surely Ray is right. Shouldn't we attack and defeat it, even if it is over the bush? That's what Elaine agreed to, then.

"Huh!? Chi!"

From behind the bushes, we perceive something slashing and tearing the air into us at a rate that makes us wave a jointed sword aggressively.

Owing to Elaine's own skill, it was the body of the jointed sword wielded at a rate that exceeded even something that came at her, leaving the feeling of slashing and throwing away in its hands.

Turning his gaze toward Ray, who is next door to him, he was still there, as a matter of course, slashing and throwing away something that Ray had flown through by waving his death size, and Seto was also shaking his sharp hook-clawed forefoot to crush something.

"Is this... Sat? No, sand, huh?

"Apparently. That's not just dirt or sand either. Look."

When Ray's words prompt me to turn my gaze to the ground, there's a hunk of sand in the face of a snake rolling in a state that's still about to collapse.

"A sand snake? Sandsnake? No, you're not."

"Oh. No matter how much sandsnake, it can't be sand the moment you knock it down. Probably the guy who was magically shaped. I mean... Flying slaughter!

Ray swings his death-size sharply across the bush as he returns his words to Elaine.

The blade unleashes a slash that I have seen many times before.

"Gaggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg!"

I hear more complicated voices than bandet goblins, and at the same time the sand under my feet lifts up to shape the walls...... watch it and whine as Ray grins at my mouth.

"Sweet"

Slash!

The slaughter unleashed slashed and tore the wall of sand that appeared in front of him with little resistance, striking the presence behind it while retaining its power.

seconds after the Flying Slash was released. Nothing in particular happens after all that and beyond, just that you've smelled iron rust from beyond the slashed sand walls when it comes to something different?

"Apparently, you did it."

"Oh. Seto, take a look at this."

"Gru!"

Ringing briefly at Ray's words, kicking the ground and flying... rather than jumping and landing on the other side of the bush and sand wall. Then it won't take 10 seconds to get back in front of Ray.

About a flying slash on his chest, and the carcass of a monster about to be cut in the upper and lower halves.

As he walks straight to Ray and Elaine, he throws the carcass on the ground, which he said he had eaten even if it was unsavory.

In fact, I can eat goblin meat if I can, but its taste is not very good, but it cannot be said to be delicious. It tastes like you wouldn't eat it if it wasn't when you were about to starve to death, so I guess that's not the wrong attitude for Ceto either.

"Sorry about that. Look, you can still eat this and re-mouth it."

Give Ceto a few slices of dried meat removed from the mysteries and leave Ceto, who is throating in an upper mood, Ray and Elaine again observe the monster falling to the ground.

In size, it's about a turn bigger than a regular goblin, and its body color is sandy like the bandet goblin I knocked down earlier. And no matter what, the biggest difference would be having a cane in your right hand.

That is also proof that the sand snakes and sand walls used by this goblin were created by magic.

"Hmm, there's also a goblin mage in the top species of goblins, so isn't it strange if there's a goblin in the bandet goblin that uses magic"

"If there's a goblin mage in a goblin, it's like a bandet goblin mage.... although I'm somewhat of a bad speaker."

Return the words to Elaine and lift the cane the bandet goblin mage is holding.

Probably branches taken from tree-shaped monsters like Trent with some kind of gemstone attached to them.

I try to use magic that puts out a small fire in my hand, but the magic street is so bad that it is not comparable to the death size, and the magic itself was activated, but the magic used for this purpose was more than a dozen times, or dozens, different than when using magic on the same scale using the death size.

"This is a magic activator, but it's not that powerful a magic item. Well, it would sell more expensive than any other bandet goblin has... but that's still cheap stuff. It seems like it can only be used for magic beginners."

"Still, it's a magic item, so you're not interested..."

It was Elaine who knew Ray was collecting magic items, but when it came to Ray, whose gaze was pointed at him, he would unmasterfully store them inside the mysteries, along with weapons and shields held by other bandet goblins just because he was uninterested.

"I only collect magic items that can be used in action. Well, some of them are like daggers of running water that just let out water to use them in action... but I can tell you that they can be used in action, more precisely in the sense that they can be used in the night camps or something when you actually get a request as an adventurer"

"I see.... by the way, what about this corpse? If you think it wasn't part of what Preades told you, it could be an anomalous species."

"Uh, right. Let's hide it for now. So, if you look it up in a guild or a book around the library and it's not an anomalous species, you usually sell the material to the guild and the excess demon stone. If it's an anomalous species, don't sell it here, but even after you get back to the gilm. That said, I think it's a normal monster to think that there are so many of them."

"Gru."

Seto also rattles his throat to say that he agrees with Ray, and piles the dead goblin falling apart into one place with a couch.

"Sorry."

I stroke my back and turn my gaze toward Elaine as she thanked Seto for collecting me on purpose.

Nodding, Elaine, to the silent question whether that's okay as a matter of policy.

Seeing it, Ray takes out a knife for demolition and rips the breasts of the bandet goblins, taking out the demonic stones.

As for the gut kind, I don't know where it will sell, so it is now.

Normally, it's the most perishable part of the gut, but fortunately with Ray's mystering, that problem is solved. That was the decision.

"Leather armor... is mostly chopped and torn, and you can't use it"

The blade of the knife is successfully used and the leather armor is stripped from the body of the bandet goblin.

"Given the size of your body, it would be someone extra small, or a child, that you could use even if you sold it. I don't think there's a demand for it, and you don't mind throwing scratched things away here?

Elaine also tells me that as she removes the leather armor from the body of the bandet goblin.

"I guess, do that. I don't care how many item boxes I have no capacity problems, it seems kind of impoverishing to keep things I don't plan to use, and above all, it takes a lot of work to get the object out."

(There is no reason why garbage can't be used with garbage. like when I used a fire whirlwind)

While I think that on the inside, I think it would be more powerful to throw even the stones around it than to put in leather armor if it were to create a fire whirlwind and increase its power, and breathe out a small sigh.

"Mm-hmm? What's up? For now, is it okay to throw away the leather armor?

"... hmm? Oh, do that."

Returning the words briefly, remove the leather armor and stick the blade of the knife against the exposed chest area.

I spread the incision as I felt the feeling of tearing meat over the knife, and when I saw the heart, I took out the demon stone that was embedded in my heart so that I could decide it out at the tip of the knife.

Exactly. It's just goblins and the demonic stones are small, but I guess that still means the superior species. It was obviously bigger than the regular goblin demon stone.

Remove all bandet goblin demon stones in the wind you are accustomed to, and finally remove the demon stones as well from the body of the bandet goblin mage.

"Heh, that's right"

The demonic stones removed are about 1.5 times larger than the bandet goblin objects.

When all the demon stones were taken out, it had been about 30 minutes since work had begun.

This is only time because I took out only the demon stone, and if I had stripped the other material I would have definitely hung it for over an hour.

(Given Spear Frog's crusade, I knew you were right to leave it alone with the Demon Stone)

Whimpering, wash 2 bandet goblin demon stones that you did not store in the mistering and 1 bandet goblin mage demon stone with a running water dagger.

"Shall we go this way first?... Even if it was probably the top species of goblin, I don't have much expectation because the goblin in question is goblin. Seto!"

Calling, throwing demonic stones toward Seto. Swallow it with couch and swallow it as it is...

"I knew it."

There was no skill acquisition announcement flowing behind Ray's brain.

Even for Seto and Elaine, I guess I had predictions because they said it was a Goblin demon stone. I'm not showing any particular shame.

Ray himself then attempts to absorb the Demon Stone using Death Size, but even if the severed Demon Stone disappeared, there was no flow of skill acquisition announcements in the back of his brain.

I just half-expected this one, too, without changing my expression in particular. I turn my gaze to the last one, Bandet Goblin Mage's Demon Stone.

Unlike the Demon Stone that failed earlier, there is only one Demon Stone here. Then naturally the question that arises is which one absorbs the death size or ceto...

"Grrrrrrrr"

Rub his face against Ray as Seto throats.

Ray found out what that meant when he saw Seto's face.

In other words, Ray can use it because he wants to. That's what I'm saying.

"... okay? Absorb this magic stone and you'll probably gain magical skills."

"Gru!"

Fine! Seto squeaking all the time.

In response to such a ceto, Ray grins as he strokes his head gently rubbing on.

"Well, I'm sorry. Then let me sweeten your words."

With a hand with a bandet goblin mage demon stone, gently stroke Seto's head at the end before taking the distance and throwing the demon stone into the air as Elaine and one and one of Seto watched...

"Ha!

Wielding a death size with a sharp temper voice, a giant blade cuts the demon stone.

But there's nothing like hearing an announcement message of skill acquisition in your brain...

(In the end, it was off, huh? Well, I can't help but say Maggie because she's a goblin)

I thought so, the next moment.

Dokung!

It feels like something is refluxing from Death Size into you and forcing you in.

"but... ah...?

Unexpectedly dropping the Death Size in my hand to the ground for the first time since I came to Elgin and stuck it on the ground as if it stood something.

"Ray? Hey, what's up? Ray!?"

"Grrrrrrrrrr!"

Elaine and Seto spoke unexpectedly to Ray, who seemed unusual, but he endured something on the ground without hearing anything at all.

And...

"but ahhhhhhhhhhh!

Shouting all around him, he loses consciousness and falls to the ground at the next moment.
