"It's pretty far into the forest."

It takes about an hour to burn trees and monsters.

There was a long path of ashes behind me.

We've made it straight, so if anyone is on this path, you'll see it.

If you are lucky, you may be able to find Mira.

When thinking about such a thing, a person jumped out from nearby.

Is it Mira?

"Nuu! What is this?"

It was completely different.

She is an old man who does not look like Mira.

And it's huge.

He will be more than one hundred and ninety.

Besides, his physique is also good.

Even though it is in the woods, it is a short sleeve for some reason, so you can see the developed upper arm.

Nevertheless, it doesn't smell much ...

It's like a tramp with ragged white hair and tattered clothes.

"The kid, maybe the Lord did this?"

"Yes"

"Gahhhah! I guess I'm going to do it! I'm not going to lose! I'm so sorry!"

The mysterious grandfather burned me against me for some reason and thrust out his fist with the tears.

Zoooooooooooo!

"Oh……"

The voice of exclamation leaked unintentionally.

The trees in front of it were shattered to pieces, creating roads that could extend several meters.

Probably, the fight was converged on the fist and fired with a fist, but it is quite powerful.

"I saw it!

A grandfather with a lively laugh.

It's a stranger by all means, but you may be looking at Mira.

When I asked it just in case,

"How a child gets lost !? It's hard! I'll help you find me!"

He offered to cooperate without asking.

"It's safe! I already know this forest! I've been wandering for half a year!"

"Is that you are a victim?"

"That's right!

What if you're laughing?

Or rather, it smells reasonable.

The anxious grandfather is likely to be a strong force.

No matter how powerful my magic was, I kept using magic for an hour.

It was really depleted and I thought I needed to take a break.

So, let's leave the road-making (?) To the grandfather, and I'll follow behind.

"Doryu Oh! Punuori Oh! Pod Essii!"

The grandfather rushes while echoing his anger.

Occasionally it was off the straight line and needed some tweaking, but I was able to enter the depths of the forest, preserving my strength.

And then.

"Kishaaaaaaaa!"

A mysterious creature suddenly popped out of the bushes.

Peel the fangs and jump on the grandfather.

"Nuh !? Fun!"

The grandfather was panicked for a moment, but beat it off as expected.

"Gya !?"

It crashes into the tree trunk and screams.

Is it about the size of a human child or goblin?

It has limbs, a rounded back and a small head.

And wearing something like an aura of darkness-

"What is this ...?"

I remember it.

It's the one I encountered in the lower dungeon.

Is it the same kind of monster?

The mysterious demon again attacked the grandfather.

The old man fights.

"Fun!"

"Gee!"

"Wow!"

"Shh!"

"Dancey!"

"Guu!"

Maybe a bit stronger than the one he encountered in that dungeon.

Still, the battle is equal, or the grandfather is a little dominant.

"Muh! I'm going to run away!"

The monster suddenly turned his heels and tried to escape, deciding that he could not win as it was.

"I won't let you do that."

"That?"

Leaving it alone could put Mira at risk, so I got stuck in the escape path of the demon.

He drops his heel on his head and casts his magic into the ground from his face.

"Inferno"

"Gyaaaaaaa!"

A mysterious demon that reverberates with the voice of a desperate while being burned down by flames.

It turned into ashes.

"Hahhhhhhh! It was a stunning heel drop!"

The grandfather rushes happily.

For the time being, I remember all the skills of Kenkenshi.

Not as good as a professional fighter like a grandfather.

"I thought only wizards were poor, but there are some who are like the Lord!

Then several hours to go through the forest with the grandfather.

I decided that it wouldn't have come this far, so I decided to turn back.

I have made a way to make it a beautiful straight line, so I don't have to worry about getting lost.

"Muh? Yes? I thought I could beat the Lord of the Forest if I were with you."

"Lord of the forest?"

I felt like this grandfather had forgotten that I was searching for a person, but I asked her back.

"Um. As the name implies, it is a monster that controls this forest. According to one theory, it is a mythical class-Nup?"

Suddenly, the old man fell down with an unnatural movement.

As soon as I asked what happened, I immediately jumped off the spot.

"branch?"

It was like a tree branch, about ten centimeters thick, that slapped my feet.

If you look closely, it is entangled with the feet of the grandfather.

"Noooh !?"

The grandfather dragged by the branch to the back of the forest.

I chased the grandfather, burning the branch that was about to get tangled again with red magic.

And--

"Well ..."

Unusually in this densely populated forest, we came out to a slightly open place, but there was a large tree that rises like a tower.

The width of the trunk may be slightly more than ten meters.

The monstrous large tree had a cave face.

Probably a kind of torrent, you can't imagine how long it has taken to grow this much.

This is probably what the old man was saying about the forest.
