The roots of the tree, which constituted the doll of the roots of the tree, unraveled everything and dived into the ground...... and the moment it disappeared, the ground swayed as if it had weighed its timing.

"Yikes! Hey, what the hell!?

A short distance from Ray, Vihera, who was fighting Trent, screams at a sudden earthquake.

Still, I guess it was thanks to Vihella's excellent motor nerves that there was nothing like falling.

The four-legged Seto had nothing to be particularly upset about in the sudden earthquake, and he had fired a forefoot blow at his opponent with Trent, who had been taken off his feet in that earthquake of Ningro, destroying Trent.

"Chi, what happens!?

Ray also looks around, surprised by the earthquake of the dugout, but in a position so that whatever happens can happen at any time.

Unaccustomed to the phenomenon of earthquakes, Vihela once looked around while distancing herself from Trento.

Unlike such a vihella, Ray doesn't look particularly surprised by the earthquake itself, although he was surprised by the sudden earthquake.

I guess that still has to do with Ray being born and raised in Japan.

Japan is a region with unparalleled earthquakes in the world.

It is like every day if it is also a slight earthquake with a degree of seismic intensity.

Even if it is more than two seismic degrees that feel wobbly, it has happened quite a few times.

Only Ray, who grew up in Japan like that, had a certain amount of habit of earthquakes.

That's why Ray could afford to just check what was going on around him, even though his surroundings were shaking hard.

But as far as Ray's eyes are concerned, there are no other anomalies in particular, although they are shaken by the earthquake.

(WHAT? This is how I'm shaking, so I definitely think there's something... what's going on?

There's no way there's anything in particular there, even if the roots of a tree point their gaze at the place where they dived into the ground.

When I saw Trent's movements also stopped, I had predictions that something was certain to happen in the future.

But... when will something happen?

(Maybe you'll stop coming out in the Trent woods like this, or something like that, right?

Ray, who has such doubts for a moment, shakes his neck sideways to deny it.

The will over there, which has been conveyed in the image language, was also close to the half-observed notion that we have to expand ourselves anyway... Trent's Forest.

Ray would immediately say no if he were told that as much as one doll at the root of the tree had been destroyed, that obsessive notion could be suppressed.

That was all the intense will.

Don't be alarmed and stare at what's going on around you.

Then... eventually the earthquake, which was shaking the perimeter intensely, gradually weakens.

If that was all there was, there was no particular problem.

No, Ning Ro, it would have even been a joy.

But if the earthquake subsided and at the same time the ground in the place where the Rays were started to crack, the story was different.

"Vihera, Seto, once we get out of here! If you fall into the ground poorly, you won't be in a spill!

It was Seto who first responded to Ray's words screaming.

Defeat Trent with a blow to his right foot and he'll run straight under Ray.

Vihera also follows Seto for a moment late, Ray jumps on Seto's back and Seto flies toward the sky with his wings flapped.

Vihera grabbed without a moment's hesitation by Seto's body, which then floated.

It hasn't taken ten seconds for Seto to make his last blow to Trent before flying off.

That was all a quick move, but I can still say that it was close to the limit in time.

Anyway, a few seconds after Seto flew away, everything that was in the square was swallowed up by the ground breakdown and slipped away.

"Dangerous..."

As far as the ground is concerned, the vast space where the Rays were until earlier, all their objects swallowed up in the ground, and they do not exist.

No, that wouldn't already be worthy of calling it a ground crack.

Given that I swallowed all this space, there was more of a hole in the space itself than a ground crack... there was no problem in expressing it that way.

"... for that split, that's the only place the ground is slipping. Look at the path we've taken."

Ray turns his gaze toward the road to the words of Vihella, who points them out as he grabs onto Seto's forefoot in a way he's used to... so convinced.

From the top, instead of the road slipping and swallowing into the ground crack, one of the smaller ground cracks didn't even exist.

Ray would have been convinced if this had been far from where he had been swallowed up on the ground.

But it's right next to where the Rays were.

Nonetheless, the lack of one of the ground breaks was very unbelievable but not normal.

"Well, I'm pretty sure it wasn't a normal earthquake. Then you have something to do with magic or something.... Still uncomfortable though"

I'm the one with the ability to cause all those earthquakes, so it's no wonder I've used any means.

Ning Lo, I'm even convinced... Ray won't be the only one who thinks...

"So, what do we do now?

"... there's nothing I can do about staying here, and suppose to go back to the marinas for now? I'm just wondering what it's like over there."

Fighting was still going on outside the woods when Ray went into the woods.

If that is the case, it is possible that the battle is still going on in this state.

(Well, both Trent and the doll at the root of the tree stopped moving when it was an earthquake, so it wouldn't be weird if the marina was hitting that gap)

Given Marina's ability to command, if the enemy abruptly stops moving in the midst of a battle, he'll definitely be on a full offense soon.

It didn't seem to Ray that the monsters who stopped moving could manage the attack that the adventurers would unleash.

And the fact......

"I knew it."

It took less than a minute for Seto to fly out of the woods... and when the Rays arrive at a campsite, the monsters who stopped moving are defeated by one adventurer after another.

They hurt my people, they killed me... The sight of someone with a strong grudge against the monster, and on this occasion defeating the monster and the demon stone anyway, the adventurers trying to secure the material or the crusade proof site just working to say if this is still the case, was spreading there.

Time returns.

When time had not passed since Ray entered the Trent Forest, Marina had given instructions to the adventurers, using bows and arrows to cover his allies and simultaneously using spiritual magic to defeat monsters.

While playing three roles per person, Marina still has some leeway to turn her gaze toward the Trent Forest.

I could tell from here that there were many giant flowers growing in the moonlight.

(but I guess I should say I was lucky that those troublesome seeds flew this way less than the first flower)

The giant flowers that have grown at the beginning may be a little daunting to describe as it rains... but as those on the ground, it has brought down so many species that it is not strange to have such feelings.

The size of the species also ranges from small to large, with even those who hurt their arms inside, even though they prevented the species with a shield.

It was a very nasty attack, but there are considerably fewer attacks of that kind.

There was no doubt that we were able to concentrate on the enemies on the ground because of that.

"There's a bunch of Trents on the right! And watch out for plants that suddenly grow out of the ground! In addition to the battle, focus on the back of your feet!

While giving instructions, the marina releases a bow toward a monster blooming blue and red spotted flowers.

The arrow, which flies straight as it slashes and rips the air, hits the stem of a flower monster and cuts it off lightly.

Looking at the stems falling on the ground, the marina further asks the Spirit of the Wind to make countless arrows of wind, releasing them towards the concentration of Trento.

The way many wind arrows pierce and tear Trent apart was an act that made the marina's skill as a spiritual wizard feel like nothing more.

Not as good as Ray's, Marina's Spirit Magic was a very well-suited attack to attack a wide range.

No, compared to Ray, who doesn't like the fine control of Ningro, it can be said that the spiritual magic of the marina wins in that it barely annoys the hands of the marina with attacks by the spirits.

... For that matter, depending on the mood of the Spirit, I sometimes make moves that Marina didn't even think about, but now, fortunately, Marina's instructions... were working as well as I hoped.

The other adventurers watching it think it would be more user-friendly for the spiritual magic of the marina to be able to narrow it down and attack it to some extent, even compared to Ray, who will extensively annihilate Ningro.

"Oh, hey, that!

In the meantime, the stunned voice of one fuzzy adventurer echoes around.

I guess it was a coincidence that that voice sounded in the fight, but I'd say that was lucky for the adventurers.

Because the reason the adventurer raised his voice of amazement was because he saw the sight of giant flowers disappearing one after another.

Extinction, of course, does not mean that giant flowers are completely extinguished in the literal sense.

Only a huge part of the flower has disappeared.

"That's... Ray"

I guess the marina understood how the sight ahead of her gaze was done because we were partying together and she was a loving person.

I wonder if the blow now is caused by the spear of dusk.

And the fact is, it was right.

"That attack... Ray...?

One of the adventurers who was nearby heard Marina whine and whine small.

But that little squeal is why... strangely it enters the ears of those around it.

While fighting, the voices that still came into my ear were enough to boost the morale of the adventurers.

Even though the numbers are running low, they have defeated monsters flying from the sky to the sky, large and small.

Now, there's no way you won't get morale up.

"Oh oh, even though those giant flowers are valuable material..."

"Maybe that's a good point, because that doesn't seem to mean it's completely gone."

The researchers' grunting voice also came into Marina's ear, but Marina naturally ignores that voice.

I know what the researchers are trying to say, but it's because of the realization that it's better to defeat the enemy now anyway.

"Now! Reduce the number of enemies as much as you can while the seeds don't come down!

Pull the bow at the same time as you scream and shoot through the haetrigusa.

There was no way the adventurers would disobey such marina words.

It's the inspiration of the previous Alliance Master, while she's the kind of dark elf beauty she deserves at night.

He who sees it and does not raise his morale, is not present here.

Some women adventurers felt a little bit like that, but still, given the current situation, there's no reason not to struggle.

That's how they all attack their enemies under high morale, and the battle lasts for a while.

Unexpectedly, the monster stops moving.

The first adventurers to realize that were naturally fighting monsters.

"Become!?

The adventurer who waved down his long sword thought the blow would be prevented.

The blow that was originally fired is one that was deliberately fired to prevent it from happening over there.

That's how the other side pokes at the gap it prevented, releasing a deadly blow.

It was an attack carried out with that intent... Trent took that blow decently.

That's decent, not dodging things, not even preventing them.

The blow waved in the end succeeds in lightly severing Trent's branches.

It wasn't such a powerful blow because it was meant to prevent

But to notice Trent's anomaly, Ning Ro, I guess that was a good idea.

An adventurer who feels strange and bounces off the spot aggressively.

If it's a strong personality, maybe he went on to attack.

In fact, if you look around you, many of you were attacking a monster who suddenly stopped moving for some reason.

"What!?

The reason I raised my voice again was because the ground suddenly wobbled.

The first adventurer man to experience something called an earthquake strikes a balance by poking his hand at the ground aggressively.

If the monsters were free to move at this time, the adventurer's life would have been completely gone.

It was so shaky that it seemed so.

But the shake is also temporary.

There were countless screams around, but if that wobble subsided, all that remained was a monster who stopped moving for some reason... it was only natural for the adventurers to attack that monster.
