Legend

Dori, and. The monster made a loud noise and collapsed to the ground.

The sound at that time indicates how much the other person weighs.

"Is that a water bear? I didn't think you'd run into me here again. No, well, it's a place I've encountered before, so I guess it's not weird if the same monster shows up again."

"Gru."

Seto, who used a power attack to hit his body and create a decisive gap in his opponent by, for example, unbalancing the waterbear, rattles his throat to agree with Ray's words.

Waterbears weigh quite a bit.

But when Seto's power attack was used, things like withstanding it were impossible.

If you try to lay it, it's not a hard story to attack an unbalanced enemy that way.

As a result, the water bear, slashed by Death Size and pierced in the throat by the spear of Dusk, died lightly.

When you strip demon stones from such waterbear corpses, you store the corpses in mystering.

"Whatever, you're pretty strong at Rank C Monster.... this demon stone is me"

The demonic stone of the waterbear that I encountered when I went out of the demonic forest, I used it for Seto.

There's nothing more like Seto using Waterbear's Demon Stone to acquire or enhance his skills than mastering water polo by doing so.

Beyond that, the demonic stones of the water bear needed to be allowed to be used for death size.

Do you remember when Seto mastered water polo too, when he said that he would let the demon stone be used for death size instead of himself, but there is no color that he seemed unhappy with?

Most importantly, in the short time since entering the Devil's Forest, you have already acquired the skills of leveling up optical camo and power attacking, so it would be natural not to be dissatisfied with it.

... In fact, whatever the level of optical camouflage is, the Power Attack is the demon stone of a bull monster who defeated it outside the Devil's Forest.

"Now, for that reason... what skills can I acquire"

Whimpering, throwing demon stones in the air, flashes in death size.

[Death size is "Ice and Snow Slash Lv. II 'skills acquired]

The announcement message that resonated in the back of the brain was convincing to Ray.

"When it comes to water system skills, naturally.... Naturally? No, well, it's a pleasure to see your skills strengthened."

Like I can convince you, like I can't... while thinking about such a delicate thing, I decided to try and see how it was enhanced for now.

"Ice and Snow Slash"

When the skill is activated, the Death Size Blade is covered in ice.

From what Ray saw, it seemed like the ice covering the blade area was bigger than it was at level one.

Look at that and be convinced to level up.

I would have loved to have been able to judge the bigger difference by its appearance, but considering that the level just went from one to two, I can't help but be so convinced that there's nothing I can do about this.

"I was lucky to use water and ice attacks."

As a wizard, Ray has the magic of the wrong digits, and he has the distinguished talent that new magic can also be produced by the senses alone.

However, it has become as specialized in the attributes of fire as it is in its price.

Of course, it is not that other attributes cannot be used at all, but by consuming a large amount of magic in different digits, it is possible to force other attributes' magic to be incorporated into the magic of flames and use such imitations.

However, magic such as water and ice, which still have opposite attributes to the flame, cannot be used.

A good example of this would be Ray's dagger of running water.

It's not called magic, but sometimes it consumes more magic than it is a magic item. It's a dagger of running water that can be used as a whip of water or a blade of water by a handyman, but when Ray uses it, he can only do things like drool the water.

Most importantly, the water is made very delicious by Ray's magic, and it has a delicious taste that should also be called celestial sweet dew.

In that sense, the skill of ice and snow slaughter, capable of ice-based attacks, was also appreciated by Ray.

"I hope there are more monsters out there that use ice and water. I'd like to go up to level five if I can."

"Grrrrrrrr...... Grrrrrrrr"

Seto honking to encourage Ray.

From previous experience, skills are dramatically enhanced if they reach level five.

Besides, if you raise the level further from its enhanced state, its enhancement width is clearly higher than it was until it reached level five.

A good example would be the increased effect time of 100 seconds once Seto's optical camouflage reaches level six.

Up to level four, the effect time increased by 10 seconds when the level increased by one.

This means that when we went from level five to six, we were ten times stronger than before.

"First, proceed"

When the Death Size is gently shaken to release the Ice and Snow Slash, Ray proceeds through the Devil's Forest with Seto.

It's been quite a while since we entered the Devil's Forest, but we still haven't arrived at the lair of the Zeppyre Gate.

In the first place, Ray and Seto are in a direction tone deafness, walking in the Devil's Forest instead of flying in the sky.

And given the vastness of the Devil's Forest, it would naturally take some time to reach the lair.

"I still have plenty of time until noon. If you take your time searching, you'll eventually find a safe house. I knew you were right to stay overnight and go into the Devil's Forest in the morning."

Originally, I was scheduled to arrive in the Devil's Forest about yesterday evening with guidance from Zakat.

But as a tied ray of two nights and three days, I deliberately spent an extra night tweaking my time in order to stay in the Devil's Forest for as long as I could.

The decision was not wrong.

Yes, self-admiring, Ray proceeds through the Devil's Forest with Seto.

That's how he kept going...... Ray stopped as he learned to do it when he saw Seto stopping by accident as he was walking next to Ray.

"What kind of monster is next? It's time for one Rank A monster to show up."

"Ggaaaaaa!"

I guess I didn't react to Ray's words like that, but the monster shows up with a roar.

... Monsters, not monsters, to be exact.

Until now, it was lucky to raid alone.

But if you think about it, even when Ray escaped from this demonic forest, some monsters acted in groups rather than just one monster, so this kind of development should be expected.

"It's a lizard monster! Seto!"

The lizard monster showed up trying to break through the bush.

However, it is a rather gigantic lizard monster that is nearly one metre tall and half a metre tall from mouth to tail.

Nearly ten of those lizard monsters attacked simultaneously.

"Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr!"

Seto makes a loud squeal where a bunch of lizards coming out of the bush and rays are packed between them.

King's Intimidation.

Among Seto's skills, he has a very powerful ability to effect all enemies who hear his voice.

If the effect is properly exerted, it becomes immobile from the spot.

In fact, more than half of the lizards are forced to stop moving by the king's intimidation, rolling and scraping the ground as the momentum they have been running.

And the lizards, who managed to resist the king's intimidation, move dull enough to see.

"Seto, let's start with the guy who's moving!

"Gru!"

Seto reacts instantly to Ray's words and sticks them into the lizard coming at him.

Although individuals who have succeeded in resisting the King's intimidation have slowed down their movements, they are not meant to remain so forever.

It is the individual difference, but if some time passes, it will fall out of the effects of the king's intimidation.

All the individuals whose movements have stopped are lifted from the effect of the King's intimidation, but still take longer than those who have succeeded in resisting.

That's why it was now a priority to attack those who moved slower first.

"Ice and Snow Slash!

It's a corner, so Ray tries the skills he just learned earlier.

They can hardly move anymore, so maybe they don't have to bother using their skills, but the fact that they're lizards means they're vulnerable to the cold.

It is also true that I had such thoughts.

Anyway, it is also true that I wanted to use the enhanced skills.

"Ha!

Ray waves the death-size after making sure the death-size blade is wrapped in ice.

The blow fired from the ground cuts the body of the lightly slow-moving lizard in two parts, left and right.

Lizards may have been able to avoid death-size attacks with quick moves, but the King's intimidating effect prevents such moves.

As a result, blades coated with ice unilaterally slash and tear the lizards one after the other.

(Still, is the slashing taste higher than before? Well, I got a level, so I guess it's natural around there)

With two levels of ice and snow slaughter, the ice covering the Death Size blade is larger than before.

At first I thought that was it, but given the feeling of slashing and tearing the lizard, its power seemed to be increasing as well.

But that may be natural, as Ray realizes, given the increased level.

"Grrrrrrrrrr!"

A short distance from Ray, naturally Seto also has the sight of blowing away another blow to his forefoot towards the lizard.

Lizards also have scales that keep weapons from passing around them, but Seto's blow is very powerful.

That's what makes it so different from life, even with scales? A very powerful blow, like that.

By that blow, the lizards are blown one after the other… hitting the trunk of the tree on top of it, which also deals damage to the lizards as a big blow.

After such a series of attacks, the lizards were all dead after a few minutes, if you noticed.

If it were a lizard, it would have been unilaterally killed without being able to move much due to the effects of the king's intimidation, so if the lizard could have spoken, it might not have.

"Now, the question is if there's anyone else with this lizard... Seto. What do you think?"

"... grrrrrrrrrrr?

Seto, who is checking Ray's words to see if he really knocked out all the lizards, rattles his throat a little lost.

Usually, Seto was able to see what was happening around him immediately, but he couldn't see what was happening around him because of the impact of the battle with lizards.

Or is it just some kind of magic or something getting in the way of the Devil's Forest?

(If they say it's because it's the Devil's Forest, they're going to be convinced soon)

More than just one attack before, I wondered if there was anything different about the lizards being attacked by a group of people.

While checking the surroundings, Ray next stores the lizard's body in the mistering.

Leave the two remaining and store everything.

And remove the demon stone with a knife from the two remaining bodies.

"I wonder where this, the crusade proof site is. Well, if you take the body to the guild around there, you'll discern it over there."

Ray doesn't know which part of the lizard's body will be the crusade proof site or the material.

Beyond that, it was still best to keep the body intact, just like any other monster.

"Nevertheless, there are so many of them, can I use the meat? Lizard meat sounds delicious."

When I was in Japan, naturally, I never ate lizard meat.

However, it was also quite a story used in comics and such, so I guess I could have eaten it without any particular repentance after coming to Elgin or having the opportunity to eat it.

Based on that experience, I decide that it will probably be delicious and decide to make this meat for dinner today.

It's true that there are still quite a few beef monster meats left, and they were pretty much more delicious than ranked.

But still, I'm pretty sure he's more interested in lizard meat now.

"Well, for that reason... you're a demon stone first. You want to go from Ceto?

"Gru!"

Seto nods at Ray's words.

Let Seto swallow a demon stone like that...

[Seto says, "Poison Claws Lv. I acquired the skills of VI ']

Sounds in the back of the brain, an announcement message.

"I see, poison.... Maybe these lizards were poisoned with nails. Eat the meat. You okay?... are you okay?"

Ray with a Zeppyre body and a Griffon ceto.

There will be no problems such as some poison, and it is probably nails or fangs that have poison...... considering the skills acquired, I think it was probably nails.

And Ray throws the demon stone and cuts it at the death size as well......

[Death size is "Multiple Slash Lv. IV 'skills acquired]

Such an announcement message flowed in the back of my brain.
