Legend

Ray and Vihera, that individual who went from a normal goblin to a goblin leader at the end of Seto's gaze, makes a fierce squeal...... no, roar.

Then I made sure I was dragged by that voice, and I could see the goblin.

On top of that, the Goblins say they're passing right near Ray, but they keep going to the Goblin Leader without noticing the Rays at all.

The number of goblins gathered is about fifty.

The herd led by the goblin leader that Ray has defeated so far is only about half, given that it was roughly a hundred or so.

"What do you think?

"Right. How many goblin herds have disappeared in the last few years, so the number of goblins around here is actually getting smaller?

"It's possible, but do you think there can be fewer goblins?

"... I'm afraid I can't say I do."

Humans, beasts, elves... On the contrary, goblins reproduce from other monster females and even animal females.

Ray didn't really think that such a goblin would run out of numbers to the point where he couldn't make a herd as much as he was somewhat defeated.

Vihera does the same with that, and I guess I just said the word now for once.

"Because perhaps the other goblins will take a little longer to come together"

"I guess."

Vihera agrees with Ray's words and once again turns her gaze to the herd of goblins.

There, goblins were gathering around the goblin leader.

Even looking at it this way, no black fog already exists in the body of the goblin leader.

The substitute, which could also be called the remnants of Ambris, has already disappeared completely.

"Doesn't it make any particular sense to chase a bunch of goblins like this? Probably headed to Gilm."

"Then we should head..."

"Grrrrrrrrrr"

Vihera turned her gaze to Ray's words in the direction Goblin had walked as he evolved into a goblin leader.

As I agree with that, Seto also rattles his throat.

"Right. You're more likely to find Ambris by looking that way. Let's go, then. No, you had something to do before that."

Whimpering, Ray takes Death Size out of Mystering and casts a spell.

"O flame, thou art present only in the realm which I have designated, and not in any other realm. Feed my magic in the realm as a price for its short raw life, and elevate your life in an instant. '

At the same time as casting a spell, he pierces the ground with a Death Size Stone Penetration.

When the stone poke is pierced to the ground, the red line runs through the ground using the place where the stone poke was pierced as its starting point.

Its red line circles around a herd of goblins, mainly goblin leaders...

"Fire Elf Dance."

The magic activates at the same time as the word is spun from Ray's mouth, creating a red force field from the line that ran to the ground, which eventually turns into a red dome.

The red dome that swallows the goblin herd intact produces the next fire sperm in the form of a lizard.

Lizards are produced in large quantities in the red dome, the number of which far exceeds goblins.

Goblin, who became a goblin leader, looks around as he summons, but that voice doesn't sound like Ray.

And it was only natural that other goblins would be confused than those who led them were not in proper command.

In the red dome the goblins summon, and then naturally some individuals try to hit the lizard in the dome with frustration.

But... the act determined the fate of the goblins in the red dome.

A lizard that looked like it was about to be beaten by a goblin explodes and smashes a piece of the goblin's body.

The impact of that explosion also explodes other lizards, causing another lizard to explode while crushing the goblin...... Goblin dies as one lizard explodes after the other.

Lizards also explode due to the impact of the explosion, and other lizards explode due to the impact… and explode to chain.

A chain explosion of lizards fills the red dome with explosions during viewing.

"This is... awesome"

Vihera, who sees this magic for the first time, squeaks as admired.

The explosion taking place inside the red dome would be cruel and extreme, normally considered.

But outside the red dome, I hear nothing from the inside.

Yes, you can't hear the explosion itself, and you can't hear the screams and pain of the goblins who are taking their lives as a result of it.

All you can see from the outside is a pure explosion.

The silent explosions taking place inside the red dome must have been interesting for Vihella as well.

Most importantly, I know what fireworks are in Ray's case, so I wasn't particularly surprised to see the explosion of the red dome.

In the first place, it's not even the first time I've used this magic.

(What is this... dirty fireworks, should I say something like that?

Ray whining as he saw his magical results, but eventually the lizard created inside the red dome must have all exploded and disappeared as well. The red dome itself disappears.

Then, at the same time, the smell of intense iron rust began to drift around him.

What remained after the red dome had disappeared and the remnants of the explosion had also disappeared in the wind was the ground so pasty that the meat, bones and guts, all of them, did not leave the prototype behind as a result of the explosion.

That is turned into a paste of meat, regardless of the goblin or the goblin leader.

(If it's a more powerful monster than Goblin, it probably wouldn't have been so flashy. Well, if there's no prototype of the body left so far, it won't be undead, so it's easy to reprocess it)

Even for about fifty people, it was never too much to use this magic if you think it saved you the trouble of collecting and baking goblin bodies.

Confirming that there is not a single survivor, including a goblin leader, Ray calls out to Vihera, who has a slightly unpleasant look at the goblin's blood odor next door.

"Vihera, don't be shy. You're going looking for Ambris."

"... oh, you would have said that. I totally forgot what I saw."

"Grrrrrrrrrr"

You felt something about how Vihera was, Seto rubbed his face against Vihera as he rang his throat.

To such a ceto, Vihera grins and strokes her body.

Vihera opens her mouth less than a minute later if she gradually changed her mood while stroking Seto.

"Shall we go, then? We need to get some clues to Ambris now."

Tell him so, and Vihera moves toward the one whose goblin leader walked in earlier.

Naturally Ray and Seto follow suit and follow Vihera.

Rays kept walking in the meadows, but eventually opened their mouths like Vihella was in trouble.

"Hey, Ray. It was this way that Goblin walked in before he became a Goblin leader, but it was a pretty unbridled step, wasn't it? I don't know if it makes sense to go straight to the goblin."

"... so to speak, right"

Ray agreed with Vihera's words, recalling how the goblin in the footsteps seemed worthy to describe it as a thousand bird's feet.

But unlike Vihera, who looks a little lost, Ray doesn't seem to care at all.

Because Ray knows an effective tracking device in this situation.

"Seto, please"

That alone understands what Ray is asking for, Seto sounds his throat joyfully.

As if to prove that being relied upon by Ray is also a great pleasure for Seto.

That's how it was activated: Seto's increased skill olfactory sense.

The smell is so sharp that we were able to reach the home of hundreds of people outside the city before.

That has now risen to level four in this short period of time, and Seto's sense of smell has increased before.

Ultimately about fifty goblins came together, but it is not difficult for Seto to trace the direction from which only one particular came.

"Grrrrrrrr"

This way, Seto rattles his throat and leads them both out in front of Vihera.

When Vihera turns her gaze on Ray, she snorts back that she's okay.

I guess I was relieved to see that. Vihera follows Seto and proceeds with Ray.

"I didn't expect Seto to have this kind of tracking device."

"Well, it's not a noticeable ability."

It wasn't a flashy skill like a firebrace, but it was definitely still a very useful one.

Seto isn't that many, except for the skills he can use in combat, but his sense of smell is one of the few exceptions.

Like water polo, there are never many skills that can be used for combat or anything other than combat.... Although water balloons have rarely become less popular in the sense of hydration since Ray acquired the running water dagger.

Anyway, with Seto's current ability to lift his sense of smell, it's easy to get to where the goblin that became the goblin leader came from, that is, where he came into contact with Ambris.

As we follow such Seto's guidance, we eventually see a small grove at the end of our gaze.

It is really a small forest, small enough to see that there would be few such things as monsters and wildlife even on a scale.

"... here?

"Gru!"

Seto confidently throats Ray, who asks him to confirm.

If you trace where the goblin that became the goblin leader came from, what you get here was an unmistakable fact, even Seto's sense of smell.

"Even a goblin who lived in a place like this can evolve into a goblin leader"

"No, it doesn't really matter where you live"

"Really? You naturally have to go through a lot to evolve? I wonder if Goblin, who lived in a place like this, could have had that experience."

Coming out of Vihera's mouth was also a convincing word for Ray.

This forest, which is too narrow for high-ranking monsters to live in, may have been a surprisingly good place for the goblins.

Of course, the livability of goblins means that other low-ranking monsters may also live there.

But if there is no absolute strong, there is no doubt that goblins will increase their chances of survival.

"... but can't you deny that there are other low-ranking monsters that could live there and be a leader species because of Ambris' abilities"

"You'll have that. But the only thing Ambris can make into a leader species is a subhuman monster, right? For example, if it were any other monster..."

"No Leader Species Exist,"

"Yeah.... most of all, turning a subhuman monster into a leader species is only a hallmark of Ambris three hundred years ago, and this time Ambris isn't necessarily the same."

"But so far, in fact, it's all subhuman to be a leader species and lead the herd, right? Well, I suppose we could consider it the same this time."

Vihera opens her mouth to embarrassment as soon as words emerge from Ray's mouth that could be described as optimistic.

"You know what, Ray? This would still be the second Ambris sighting example. Then maybe it could be completely different, right?

That was definitely a fact.

The fact that there is only one precedent is because it is not strange for Ambris, who has completely different abilities, to come out.

Most importantly, Ray isn't that worried.

In fact, all the herds that have been created so far are now subhuman monsters.

If it were different from the previous Ambris, the monsters that produce the leader species would have been something completely different as well.

Of course I don't imitate being cautious, but I still don't think Ambris is a completely different person.

"Grrrrrrrr"

Seto rings his throat to block Ray and Vihera from speaking.

That's how Ray and Vihera turned their gaze to Seto's watchers... there was something there that should be called black fog to disperse in the trees.

"... Ray"

"Oh."

To the words of Vihera, Ray nods briefly.

Seto also sees Ambris and roars.

But he didn't seem to care about those rays at all, and Ambris drifted between the trees as he floated... eventually going straight down to the ground.

Could you possibly move over the ground? Ray had such doubts, but the next move Ambris showed was not to stay on the ground, but to sink into the ground.

Even fog usually prevents you from diving to the ground.

I guess that's only possible because it's still a magic anomaly.

At first glance it looked like black fog, but it was proof that it wasn't actually fog.
