Legend

"Slow down!"

Where leaves have been flown from a plant made of rock, Ray instantly plays it with a spear of dusk.

A dusk spear wielded with no magic or anything passed, but its performance is very high, even if viewed as a purely normal spear rather than a magic item.

There was no way I could have prevented a blow to the extent of being flown through a leaf made of rock.

The rock leaves bounced by the spear pattern fall straight to the ground and crumble.

"Ray, not yet!

"I know!

To the words of Vihera, Ray waves the spear of dusk again.

From rocky plants, it is fruit that has been flown next to the leaves.

It's a fruit about the size of a nail, but if you think you've been flown in this situation, it's obviously not hard to judge you as being harmful to yourself.

Playing that rock fruit as natural, Ray packs the distance from the rock plants.

(Rock fruit, doesn't that feel like ning-roe pebbles?

Though thinking that way in a corner of his head, Ray shrinks his distance from the rock, sewing between attacks and swinging a spear of dusk quickly.

There was a sharp sound of the blade slashing and tearing the wind, and at the next moment the rock plants stopped moving...... the area close to the roots was cut, causing it to fall to the ground.

"Don't you mean monsters......

Ray shrugs as he falls to the floor and sees the rocky plants that are no longer moving at all.

That's what's currently rolling on the floor looks like a better substitute to describe as a stone statue of a plant.

If this were a monster, it would have been the same demonic stone as the plant-shaped monster that started Trent.

But as far as the state of the rock plants is concerned, there is no such thing as a demonic stone anywhere.

"If there is a demon stone, it would be root...... how do you dig it? No, if you want to dig it, you can dig it, but honestly, I don't want to use my work here."

To Lew's words, Ray turns his gaze to where the roots of the rock plants were.

What is there was undoubtedly a cut stem close to the rock floor, but the roots are buried on the dungeon floor more than it is a plant.... Yes, on a rocky floor.

If we are to dig out the roots, that is what we need to crush the rocky ground.

That too, try not to damage the roots as much as possible.

If you want to, it's not like you can't do that.

But when it comes to digging rocks, there's no mistake in using your strength… If you ask me if I need to do that, I want to avoid it if I can, that's what Lelew says.

Ray was a little troubled by the words of such a reliw, but for now he stores the rock plants in mysteries and opens his mouth with a spear of dusk in his hand.

"I've never seen this rocky plant before, and it could be some material, so I want to take everything home if I can. I'll dig this place, so I need you to keep Lew on the perimeter."

"Aye."

If the enemy reappears from the path where the Rays came from, than this is the end of the line, it will be very troublesome.

Just so we know, Lew took the watch.

Most of the monsters that come out so far are goblins, cobolts and oaks.

With such a monster, some ranked adventurer can easily repel it.

... In a sense, it was an extreme tale of luxury to use an aliased high-ranking adventurer as a lookout for such monsters.

Magic flows to the spear of dusk, releasing the spear of dusk toward the rocky ground.

The ground bursts as if it had exploded into that blow.

An explosion at a distance that would have no effect on the roots of the plants, as it was a little far from where the rock plants were growing.

Gradually approaching the place where the plant is growing, making sure that there are no plant roots on its ground.

Other faces, of course, weren't just watching, but Marina was digging back into the ground using the spiritual magic of the earth.

And long enough, he eventually succeeds in digging out the roots of the rock plants.

Because it was necessary to dig out the roots so as not to damage them as much as possible, the fine work became the work of a marina that could use spiritual magic, rather than ray, and eventually left it mostly to the marina.

"Rock roots... something like that? You can't break it with this often."

Its roots, made of rock, do not seem so different from normal plant roots if you look only at the shape.

But the roots are also naturally made of rock, which is so thin that if you invest poorly in it, it will break even as soon as possible.

"Ray, before you break that root by touching the breadth, leave it alone."

In the words of Vihera, Ray also stores convinced of it.

If it were to be like moving around with a rock root like this, it would definitely break it, because that's how I understood it.

Though weak, that judgment was more natural than having a battle with monsters.

"So, I wonder what this rock plant was after all. I'm pretty sure it means something, considering it was growing like this at the end of the day."

Ray squeaks as he returns to the Y-shaped road earlier.

That I had never even seen it at the marina, so I was certain that it was a rare substitute.

"You'll need to look it up at the guild. Most likely, this dungeon-specific plant."

"Uh, right. It's a dungeon on the wall of a cliff, and it's made of rock to see the surroundings too... if you think about it, isn't it strange to have rocky plants? A little more like it... if that's even a rock blossom, I'll take it back to Schmine as a souvenir."

Smudging and grunting, Lew turns his gaze to Ray as he says so.

That's not once, over and over again.

I could immediately understand what Lelew was trying to say, even if it was Ray.

"Uh, right. Next time you find a similar rock plant, I'll give it to Lew."

"Oh, is that true? I'm sorry I said I couldn't."

"I'll tell you what, I'm talking about if there were other similar rock flowers. If you don't, you can't give this away."

"I know. From what I've just seen, maybe the same rocky plants are blooming elsewhere."

Are you saying that out of your mind as a long-time adventurer, or because it's a runoff of your beloved wife's late family?

I couldn't really understand the area, Ray, but I can still predict the whole thing.

Either way, the Rays continue to progress without failing to be vigilant as they speak and eventually arrive at the Y-shaped road.

Naturally, the Rays head right on the Y-shaped road without getting particularly lost.

There were definitely a lot of monster raids just in places with a lot of monster footprints...... naturally because that was the only way to go.

And then, not long enough after I started going down the right road, a monster, including an oak, struck me.

Most of all, I knew monsters were approaching by Seto and Büne, so I was preemptively attacked with Oak Archer's shooting arrows...

It's not a hard story to deal with an arrow fired at us because everyone but Büne has a high level of combat power.

"The oak is in the rear and the avant-garde is the goblin. You're such a pain in the ass!

Relieu pierces the torso of the goblin he has stormed with a long sword and lifts it as a shield as it is.

At the next moment, several arrows shot from the oak archer pierce the back of the goblin.

"Gah!"

At the point of being pierced through the torso, it was fatal for Goblin.

But after that fatal wound, Goblin, who devoured a further attack from behind, screamed deafly and remained breathless.

Lelew throws the corpsed goblin toward another…, the goblin he tried to go to Bühne, interrupts his behavior and activates his skills with a blade he returns after throwing down the goblin.

"Wind slaughter!

The flying slash released from the blade slashes and rips the oak archer that was about to shoot an arrow in formation behind the monster as it was.

An arrow-watching right arm is severed and a scream leaks out of Oak Archer's mouth.

The other oak archer next door tries to shoot an arrow without worrying about how his buddy looks like...

"Piggy!"

Eyes pierced by long needles, screaming.

If you get your eyes pierced, you can't target them with a bow as you should... On the contrary, you can't fight properly because of pain.

... No, some monsters say that even if they were pierced through the eyeballs, they would turn that pain into anger and be more vicious, but Oak Archer wasn't the type.

Also, one arrow pierces the head of the other oak archer, whose right arm was severed earlier by Relieu, next to the raging oak archer, taking his life.

It was the marina that did it.

Although he is a spiritual wizard, the marina of dark elves is naturally very skillful in bow arms as well.

When an arrow shot from such a marina finishes one of the most dangerous oak archers on this scene, the next one pierced by Büne through the eyeballs. The head of the other oak archer also shoots with an arrow... thereby ending the battle.

The goblins, who have come as avant-garde, are not a threat at all if you try Ray or Seto.

A single armored sleeve was exactly such a battle to be said to be this sight.

"Take Oak Archer's body for now, should Goblin only take the Demon Stone?... but where did Oak Archer get his bow from? Maybe since before I got here."

"I guess.... What do we do? You want to take that bow too?

Marina asks Ray, who housed Oak Archer's body in mystering.

In that word, Ray sees the bow and gets lost... eventually, stores it.

The quality of the bow itself is never good.

That's why I decided that it might be of some help later if I kept it for now than it could normally be used as a bow.

If it's a weapon to the extent that it might be useful, if it's normal, there's nothing like taking it.

Because it obviously gets in the way, and that's likely to cause a monster to attack you.

But in Ray's case, you don't need to worry about that more than you have an irregular magic item called Mystering.

If it helps at a later stage. Storing the bow and arrow barrel with the arrow that Oak Archer had - and it's not good to determine the quality of the arrow either - in the misting, that's the end of what needs to be done, and we go through the cave again.

"But whatever that rocky plant is, it doesn't look particularly suspicious in here."

"You were set up with a trap or something."

That's how Ray returns to Lew's words as he walks behind a line.

Even if Lew nods at Ray's words like that if he says so, it's not entirely convincing there.

Ning Ro, wanting something more, was the look I could see you thinking so.

"If I could, more like this... I'd like to see a unique sight of the dungeon or something"

"What a sight to be unique to a dungeon."

Vihera asks if you were somewhat interested in Lew's words.

"Right. For example, it's a place like this, but it has giant waterfalls."

"... not a waterfall, but there was a dungeon with woods"

Ray, who was listening to the conversation between the two of them, shrugs so, remembering the altar of inheritance he went with Elaine.

"There was a lot more going on in the dungeon, didn't there? Well, as far as Ray and I know, there were deserts and stuff like that."

"Uh... there it is. That's the desert as far as I can see. Most importantly, the dungeons in Eggzil are growing all the time, which is why they turned out to be dungeons, right? By comparison, this dungeon has probably just been made, so I don't think it has that kind of sight."

"Really? It's not like the entrance on that cliff wall is the only entrance to this dungeon. Maybe the dungeon that was somewhere grew and as a result created a new entrance over there. You can't deny that, can you?

"If it's normal, isn't there one entrance to the dungeon? As far as I know, yes."

"As far as Elaine knows, right? It's not like Elaine knows all the dungeons, and it's no wonder there's dungeons like that. Dungeons are things we don't understand in common sense."

To Marina's words, Elaine nodded convincingly too...

"Mmm!"

As Bühne lowered his voice and followed Bühne's gaze, Rays found a staircase headed up there.
