"Rain!

"Good, you're safe"

They all woke up, and they jumped out of the tent.

Canade, Tania, Sola, Luna, Nina, they're all here.

"... Funya..."

... Nina, half asleep.

Well, that's good.

First of all, we all seem to be safe.

"Guh."

The bear I was taming approached us.

I'm somewhat proud because I faithfully accomplished the orders I was given.

"All right, well done"

"Gwong."

"Which way is the intruder?

"Guh!"

The bear pointed in the south direction.

What about the south? Nothing in particular in the south...?

As long as we walk to the city in a while, there's nothing else.

Nevertheless, there is no way a bear is lying.

Bears don't have the intelligence to fool people, and there's no reason to fool them.

What's this all about?

"Rain, come here!

"Tania?"

Tania called me because she was in a hurry.

Moving as they say, there it was, a tent that had thrown in the prisoners.

"Look."

If you peek inside as they say... there are no prisoners you should have caught.

Instead, the chopped rope was falling.

"I don't know how, but those guys, they got away. We have to go after him fast!

……

"Rain?"

"Isn't it strange that you ran away? First, there are few ropes that are falling. I had my hands and legs tied, so if I'd been around them all, there'd be a lot more rope left. And how did you get away with that? I can't do this without outside help."

"That's... but aren't you actually running away?

"Right..."

I don't know much...

The fact that the prisoner escaped is certain.

If we don't chase him soon, he'll fail the request.

Get out of the tent and join everyone.

"Rayne, what happened?

"The prisoner has escaped."

"Nha!?

"Sola, Luna. Can't you magically follow the whereabouts of the escaped prisoners?

"If you're close, you can find it, but it's hard if you're already far away. Because the effective range is defined."

"In the meantime, we'll try. Material Search!"

Luna cast her magic...

A little, shake your neck to the side.

"Oh? We got a reaction, huh?

"Is that true?

"Mm-hmm. It's within critical range. From here to the south... 500 meters, something like that. We have multiple magic reactions."

"Surprisingly close."

"It's easy to catch up now!

"Okay. Canade and Tania follow me. Sola, Luna and Nina contact Aug and Kreutz."

"Are you going to contact those two, too?

"Why don't you just leave me alone?

"That's not how it works. If you ignore me here, I might be able to get the obsession again... and I might lend you a hand."

"Nyah... if Rayne says so"

"It's Rain. I mean... those two were camping 50 meters north by the river, right?

"Yeah, but?

He's not responding.

"Huh?"

"There's no reaction like those two. There is no one in the north direction right now. People react only from the south."

What do you mean...?

You renounced your request?

No... with all that said, it's hard to think that I gave up.

Then...

"... could it be"

Second, it flashed.

"Luna. Again, can you check the magic response? However, now I want to know the exact number of people. Can you do that?"

"Hmm, who do you think I am? It's the most powerful species. That's about it before breakfast! Show my great power to the Lord..."

"Material Search"

"Ah!? My turn!?

"Luna has a long front mouth. I can't wait...... eh, I got results. There are seven magic reactions."

"I knew it!

I have a bad feeling about it, and I accidentally pound my tongue.

"Rain, Rain. What do you mean?"

It's Aug and Kreutz.

"Nha? What's wrong with those two?

"You two let the prisoners escape."

"What?"

"No, to be exact, you must have taken him out. I'm gonna take you to the city like this, and I'm gonna lay my hands on you."

Sola said there were seven magic reactions.

But there are five poachers we caught.

Two more.

So... I don't see Aug and Kreutz.

At that time, a prisoner, convenient and unlikely to escape, escaped.

Seeing as you two are involved, you'll be sure to do it first.

"You'll do what you do to usurp people's prey...!

"You're cowardly! I'm sorry if I didn't give you a booby job."

"You're both right, there's no reason to let him get away with this. We'll get him."

Trying to rush out...

"Wait a minute"

Close your eyes and explore the signs around you.

I flew more waves of thought and searched for what I wanted.

Exchange a provisional contract with an insect.

Fluffy light bulbs appeared to follow us.

"... beautiful"

"Nyah... this, what?

"It's a luminous insect at night. Because it's dark, I'll replace the light."

"I do need some light, but if I had one of these, I'd find out where we are, wouldn't I?

"We have prisoners over there. Just because we find out where we are doesn't mean we can get away faster. No problem. Instead, I might be able to appeal to you and put pressure on you."

"Well, so is that."

"Well, let's go."

I went into the woods on cue.

The night forest is dark and the tree leaves are blocking the moonlight, so the sight would be pretty bad if it were in normal condition.

However, thanks to the luminescent worms, our surroundings were illuminated by good additions and subtractions.

I can see my feet and the light is reaching about three meters around.

I can't do all I can... but still, I could walk at some speed.

Thanks to this, I was able to catch up with Aug and Kreutz by losing as much.

"Rain, I found it! Eight o'clock!

I quickly moved my gaze into Canade's words.

Let it be dispersed in the darkness of the night, and I see multiple shadows moving.

Leading the way is Aug.

Standing in the rear is Kreutz.

They had the prisoners we caught.

Though the captives had the shackles of their feet untied, the others were in captivity, walking in the dark night in a way that would lead them both.

After all, were these two involved!

"Canade, Tania. Go around in front of them and stop your legs! I'll pinch it from behind."

"Copy that!"

"I'll clean it up once and for all."

Canade and Tania increased their velocity, each circling from left to right.

Exactly.

When you two get serious, I can't catch up.

"From here on out..."

"Stop the traffic!

"Become!?

Canade and Tania quickly turned around in front of Aug and Kreutz.

When he stopped to boast of its existence, the leading org leaked an upsetting voice.

"Damn, I can't believe I found you anymore...... if this happens, I'll do it, Aug!

"Whoa, you're gonna lose with all these kids!

Org put up his sword, and Kreutz put up his cane each.

The idea of surrendering quietly seems to have no fine dust.

Well, you will.

If they don't resist here, in the first place, I wouldn't think about sidestepping the handle.

Well, in good faith.

Never, you can't beat these people!
