Time goes back a little.

Yona Things When Schwartz was taking the fugitive slaves back to the 'Great Blackhouse', four of the camellias (Southern Ka) who had received a joint request from the General Alliance and the Dragrange Border Boats - Frau, Meeche, Lu and Malinda - were acting together with the eldest daughter of the Dragrange Border Boats, Ophilia, and a total of six of their escort knights, Virginia Burlenberg.

"I'm gonna camp around here tonight. Meeche, I need you to scout the perimeter, and Rue and Malinda will be ready to eat."

Roger that.

"Oh, leave it to me!

Copy that.

A line that had left the forest city of Dragrange and was once again headed towards the labyrinth of the pit had returned to distances such as a few hours to the labyrinth.

If we leave with the sunrise tomorrow, we can re-enter the labyrinth early in the morning. That's what Frau had in mind.

But...

"Frau, something's wrong."

According to Meeche's report back from his surrounding reconnaissance, there are no signs of beasts or warcraft at all, compared to the first time he passed.

If so, there are not so many possible reasons. There is something nearby that beasts and warcraft who live in nature avoid.

"Is it the Dragon Knights of the Kingdom of Drake?

When Ophelia is right and even the Warcraft will be avoided, Arearth, driven by the Dragon Knight, can be considered first.

"You can think about it. But just as the Dragrange Border Knights are restricted from entering the Devil's Mountains, the troops of the Kingdom of Drake should not enter without good reason."

"We have not heard from the Kingdom of Drake that we are entering the Devil's Mountains. Besides, the Warcraft Crusade in the Devil's Mountains should have been our turn."

"You did, Virginia. So, has something sprung up?

"That's a good chance, I'm gonna increase my watch tonight and change the threesome. Let me know as soon as you hear any suspicious signs or noises."

It sprung up - which meant that the Warcraft/Subraces, empowered inside the Labyrinth, flooded out of the Labyrinth.

Frau's instructions determine tonight's policy.

A presence that also avoids the warcraft drawn to the Devil's Mountains roams somewhere in this mountain range. It would have been obvious if we had known the movements of the beasts that it was not so far away either.

A few hours later - they listen. A continuous burst into the Devil's Mountains... A blast reminiscent of the roar of the dragon, the champion of nature.

"What's this noise? It's the first sound I've ever heard."

Ophelia and Virginia, who stood on watch, first noticed.

"This sound......"

Virginia picked up Lu's crush, the third person on the lookout.

"Lord Lu, do you know the sound of this law shooting?

"I heard a similar noise before. Accurate and unparalleled distance skills, difficult to spot and difficult to withstand if eaten"

"Such skills…"

"I'll wake everyone up soon"

"Right... I was in the Devil's Mountains when the Thief“ Cat Willow ”was in charge of the capture, but I need to be sure what's going on..."

Flau, Meeche and Malinda, who were resting, also noticed the sounds of law shooting from afar.

"What's happening?

"Battle"

"This sound... is he fighting?

"No, no, no! You can't be here, it's the Devil's Mountains?!

"But, Malinda. Whoever's fighting, this sound of law is no big deal. Meeche!"

"It's not that far... the labyrinth... no, I think it's around the Drum Fortress"

"Ready to leave"

While four of the camellias were discussing the sounds of legal shooting and those who were ringing it, Virginia cleaned up the camping tools and transferred the fire of incineration to the pine and held it in her hand.

We have a little more time until sunrise, the six of us share the fire of the pine light. Led by Meeche, he began moving to the source of the still-needed explosion.

Shortly after they started moving, the six saw the night sky stained red. In a completely different direction from sunrise, the sky is stained that can't be stained. The six had a clear picture of what the facts showed.

The speed at which it progresses with nature is faster, and the footsteps that run as if they were inversely proportional to it are smaller. Don't step on the fallen trees scattered in the dark night, don't shake the branches that you can stretch all you want -.

Meeche first lurked himself in the shadow of boulders, where the grass disappeared from the woods and instead went further by changing his appearance with a wilderness full of sand and stone.

"The drum fortress is burning..."

"It's dark and it's hard to see... but there's a fight on the front of the fortress, too."

Following Meeche, Frau went into the shadow of the boulder, and the other four joined him.

"He?"

Lu shrugged, but Ophelia's view behind it was different.

"The walls of the drum fortress are collapsing... have you even been attacked by a herd of warcraft?

"It looks like the battle is still going on"

It was not foreseeable from their position to the inside, but there was still gunfire coming from the fortress that collapsed and continued to flame.

"... Ophelia, I need to check something out"

"What? Frau."

"We're supposed to be the only ones getting permission to enter the Devil's Mountains, right?

"Exactly. Warcraft hunting by other adventurers has been suspended because of the highly classified search for the home of the thief" Cat Willow ”and the associated labyrinth exploration. In addition, merchants travelling with the Kingdom of Drake are also discouraged from using mountain roads."

"Are there any adventurers besides us who are being asked to do the same?

"At least I haven't heard. Maybe your father knows something."

That's all we talked about, Ofelia and Frau noticed that the sound that was echoing from the fortress had disappeared.

The Meeches had already noticed, and they were out of the boulder where they were hiding themselves and staring at what was a fortress - what was.

"The battle is over? Ophelia, we'll see about that later... Now..."

"Yeah, let's see what was going on at the Drum Fortress,"

◆◇◆◇◆◇◆

Standing in front of me were Camellias and Ophelia, who had pulled a knife, set up a great shield, and started chanting the Devil's Word, plus six Virginians.

I fought too flashly...... Starting with the M202A1, type 87 anti-tank guided rounds and sentry guns have exactly the volume of firing and projectile sounds they emit when attacking. They must have come to the Drum Fortress, not the labyrinth of the pit, so that they could be drawn to the repeated gunfire.

And you must have seen it. Like the streets running in the wilderness are stained with blood, and the fortress is crumbling and there are many dead...

I don't have any feelings for hindsight in this fight or anything. But face-to-face on this occasion is a little - not nearly as bad a time as it is.

"It's not him"

I can hear Mr. Lu whining.

"I've been wondering, who are you all calling“ he ”?

At the end of the demonic chant, Virginia, who pronounced the magical name and hung the magical magic conferred on six people, asked Mr. Lu as it was, but Mr. Lu stared at this one without answering it.

"A little acquaintance, though I can't tell you the details."

Instead, Mr. Meeche answered looking at this one, but apparently they are still keeping their promises at all times.

"The Undead just did this on their own!

"There may be others, beware"

"Lu is right. Keep your perimeter alert, Meeche!

"Other than that guy, he doesn't smell or show signs of warcraft or sub-races!

"Frau... it's an undead that creates so much destruction. Not by the gatekeeper, but perhaps comparable to the Lord of the Labyrinth (Dungeon Master)"

"Dear Ophelia, Frau, we are the only ones who crusade..."

"But Virginia, what if you let this guy go wild here and come to the Dragrange side? Crusade here, and it will surely do harm to the people who live in Draglange."

Ahhh...... I'm totally in combat mode... what do we do...?

The remaining ammunition has eight rounds loaded on the UMP 45 and one spare magazine. PSS special silencing pistol in the hips holster to hide in the fur cloak, but there are two spare magazines here as well.

There are three Grenade Axe projectiles left, but I'm not going to fight them in the first place.

Besides - if you're going to use a mock bullet, it's not usually easy to use it. If it becomes a battle, it will immediately be directly linked to either death.

I'm still a little distance from them. If you want to escape - now is the only time.

He threw the M18 smoke grenade he had left to use during the retreat in front of Mr. Malinda, who was still likely to start the assault, choosing to exit so that it overlapped the injected green smoke screen, and began retreating into the interior of the collapsed fortress.

"What is this!

"Malinda, be careful! It could be corrosive smoke!

I heard Mr. Frau's cautionary voice, but that's just color gas.

"The undead are getting away!

"Dear Ophelia! It's dangerous on your own!

Only one point of light follows me from the rear - I tried to get back to the Devil's Mountains as I circled the wilderness from the back of the Drum Fortress, but it's troublesome to be seen the movement.

I stopped my leg and looked back to the spot of light I was tracking.
