My Status as an Assassin Obviously Exceeds the Hero’s

"What do you mean?"

Look around where you got to. That's what I squeal.

The landmark on the trunk of the tree was no different.

Even without the landmarks, I remember the characteristics of the trees I went through, and I'm pretty sure they've moved on exactly.

If we proceeded in the reverse order of marking, we should have been able to return to the rendezvous point.

Even so, it was not a slightly open place, the meeting point, that we reached.

"Duh, what do you mean!!

Wagi barks.

I turned my neck around and looked at this one.

"You tricked me! Asahina!!"

Waki, who was in the lead and walking, should be the one who understands best to follow the landmarks back.

I think it's probably confusing.

But the confusion in this situation is life-threatening.

I pulled out the white knife, the "White Dragon”, which I sat on my back, vigilantly around.

"Waki, calm down. They're surrounded."

Waki, who opened his mouth to say something again, solidified into the quiet voice of Hoshiyama.

I'm surprised I realize the mountains are surrounded.

Unexpectedly, Koyama's range of enemies seems to be wide.

It's called being able to break down toxins in your body, you're pretty capable of being a healer.

"Don't you both get out of my way."

Move your eyes to the left and right and be vigilant around.

Signs of death have drifted so thick that they are incomparable in the demons we have fought before.

This might not be a good idea.

"Coming!

With the voice of Hoshiyama, I shake through "White Dragon”.

Barely fast enough to chase with your eyes.

This might be a little tough to fight while protecting the two behind you.

Besides, I still don't see the enemy.

It looked like a tree branch, but was it a tree demon?

"... I don't like fighting while I protect you."

Blurry with such a loud voice that the two behind you don't hear it.

My profession is not a knight, it's a samurai.

I specialize in slashing opponents, not protecting them.

I mean, my defense is pretty low.

Until now, Tsuda was able to focus on fighting with me in Sato because he was protecting the three not the combatants behind him or Nanase in the rear guard position, but now that Tsuda is gone, I'm the only one to protect them.

You know how hard it is to be gone.

"It should be time to see you..."

Detailed mountains crush behind.

Sure, the killings and signs of the enemy are slowly approaching, but we still don't see that.

No, this is...

"Shit!

Slash and throw away the tree demon that was looming behind the two of us without looking back.

The branch was right next to the two of them.

"It's a tree demon! Watch the branches!

Even though the enemy has figured it out, the trees are as much there as they are.

In the first place, I can't tell the difference between a demon and a real tree.

Because they're surrounded, they're scattered around with signs.

"I have no choice. Slash them all."

Another swing, pull out the knife that was on your hips.

This is the sword that was given to me at Castle Raitis when I found out what my occupation was.

One wave at a time, 'duplicitous' skills.

I was practicing at night, but I didn't fully master it.

but surely this one has more trouble than waving one wave with both hands.

Defeat everything before being attacked so you don't think about defense.

"I don't think that's what I'm saying at this time, was Asahina such a brain muscle?

"Ugh, hmm?

Looks like the two of you are saying something back there, but it didn't sound like me concentrating.

"The Second Flow -" The Cherry Blower ""

A technique that slashes from angles, in endlessly different directions, like a big wind blowing and full of cherry blossoms scattering.

The branches thrown down here were finely slashed.

Still wouldn't have reached the demon body yet.

A demon slashed a branch raises a painful voice from there.

So decide now that there are no disturbing branches.

"Duplicant -" Sickle ""

A gust of wind.

I can hear the little screams of Hoshiyama behind me and the surprising voices of Waki.

After the wind stopped, there were many trees cut down.

There are no signs of life there.

Apparently, all the tree demons have been defeated in the current attack.

I breathed and nabbed.

"Wow, Asahina."

Looking back, Wagi and Akayama stand unwounded.

It was really dangerous this time.

It's incredible to think I'd be intact right after I left the castle.

I hear I'm getting steadily stronger, too.

"I'm sorry I doubted you earlier. I wasn't calm."

"No, it was sudden. There's no reason to panic."

Wagi seems thin, but he's actually the one who can honestly apologize for what's wrong with him.

Wouldn't it be valuable to be able to honestly admit your non at this time?

I think this kind of place is preferable.

Because I never had anything to do with it first in my life before I was summoned, or it's fun to have so many good things about my classmates that I can see now.

"What do we do now? The landmarks you put on it may have changed because the tree demons moved."

I looked around at the words of Hoshiyama.

And approaching one fallen tree.

"... No, I don't think so."
