Ataru and the others take a carriage to the woods, but there was nothing wrong with someone on the road.
What's more, as we approach the forest, we don't even see demons. It was a pleasure to be on the safe road, but Atal's expression is not excellent.
"... this might not be a good idea. Maybe demons and animals are no longer leaning around the woods."
That safe path is inversely proportional to the level of danger we are about to await.
And when we're at a distance where we can see the forest, we're clearly losing sight of other organisms.
"Mr. Bal."
Balkias shook his head sideways at Caro's call. Nothing caught on Caro and Balkias' two sign perceptions either, proving the correctness of Atal's words. Apparently, the Ataru are the only ones here.
"Let's keep the carriage a little in front, just in case."
There was still some distance to the woods, but Atal pulls up the carriage and goes down.
"You put it a long way away."
Even previous requests have put the carriage away. This time, however, it is quite a distance compared to them. The claw's hand connected the horse to a nearby tree.
"Because I can think of a lot of adventurers who are failing, and a lot of big guys because of the lack of signs around this forest. You said something about a dragon's head on a griffon to a lion, right? That's pretty much all I ask."
Such demons had never been seen by Atal himself, even in Earth games and comics. That's why I was so vigilant about someone I couldn't imagine.
"I get it.... Nevertheless, you can't feel any signs of animals or demons from the woods, as well as their demons"
With a sad look on his face, Caro shrugged with her gaze at the woods.
"But I don't like it..."
Barchias, still looking behind the woods, didn't feel any signs either, but somehow there seemed to be something to feel apart from it.
"If Bal says so, let's go more cautiously. We're going to make sure we don't lose our fighting attitude to get into battle at any time."
Ahead of the highly perceptive Balkias, Atar takes the gun, and Caro takes the sword and goes into the woods.
I feel the air has changed as soon as I step into the woods. The painfully strained air hits the attals.
"What is this?
The surprised expression Atal felt something hard to describe clearly.
"Ko, I think this is probably a sign of an example demon. But not so much..."
Caro was also feeling strongly uncomfortable about the signs he had not felt at all earlier insisting so strongly.
"Garlululu, I don't like this guy!
Roaring with his fangs out, Balkias instinctively perceives the Lord of those signs to be the enemy.
One reason I felt signs after a row went into the woods was because the demon recognized the foreign body that came into the woods as the enemy.
"Caro, Bal, what do we do? You can still turn back now."
Atal also felt the danger of the Lord of this sign, so he asks the two of them for their views. Even if you ever get a penalty from your guild, one of the options was to call it off, given the danger to your life.
"... I know it's dangerous, but I still want to accomplish what I've received. Besides, it's okay because I'm in the woods now, but I'm scared if I come out of the woods. So I want to keep going."
Caro with a serious look was in favor of a demon crusade.
"Me too, Carol!" You can't leave this guy like that!
barking even though Balkias also had a strong will to crusade demons.
"Then it's a decision. I don't think this guy should be defeated, either. Just keep in mind that it's the least we can do to get the three of us home safely, including me."
Atal agreed, but he also wanted to avoid the two of them getting hurt badly.
"Ok, please don't be impotent, Master Atal!
'Good luck with that. Ooh!
When we both regain our temper, we turn our gaze to the signs.
The three from there are severely expressive and go to the back of the woods so that they can take every step of the way. Each of them felt the demons approaching even without uttering a word, and there was power in their hands to hold onto nature and weapons.
"Ahead of you... that's him"
Eventually the deepest part of the forest, where the trees would have grown if they had been, had all been unbroken to see by their demons.
"Huh! The pressure is amazing when you look in person"
"Gallululu"
The demon was visible in the eyes of the three staring at the same place.
"Sure, it's what I was talking about... but"
The demon in front of me has the head of a lion, the head of a griffon, and the head of a dragon, as I was hearing. But all the heads were growing out of the torso.
"Is this... a turtle, huh?
A body wrapped in methyl, from which three necks had grown. It looks somewhat like the creatures I've seen before coming to this world.
"Turtle, is it?
I hear a name I can't hear. Caro tilts his neck with a strange look.
Ataru, who mentions the demonic traits in this situation, was also an atar, but Caro, who hears it back, was also seeming calm.
"Well, in my hometown there was a creature wearing a stiff shell, like that... It's not that big."
Atal also answers that question honestly, wondering how to explain it.
"Dear Atal! Dear Caro! Keep your eyes on him!
It's a rare sight of two people being noticed by the usually most restless Balkias, whether they have cut the numbness to the two of them in a relaxing conversation before their eyes.
"Even so...... does that mean three necks? I can't seem to move."
Of course, the strong signs I was feeling from the forest entrance weren't gone, but the tension was disappearing from the atar I saw who I was.
"Um, yeah... sounds kind of dull"
The tension was disappearing for Caro as much as for Atal for the different shape he expected.
'He looks like that... but he's strong!
But Balkias still has a low profile without taking his eyes off his enemies.
He didn't look strong, but there was no way he was weak if he was a demon who had defeated many adventurers...
