My Status as an Assassin Obviously Exceeds the Hero’s

"Hey brave man! He's gone that way!! Don't be silly!

"Don't give me orders!

I raise my voice without looking back at those who have brave men who rough their breaths and kneel.

The brave man stands up screaming depressingly.

Was it the one who couldn't move so much?

I shook my head thinking that far.

Speaking of which, this may be the first time I've fought with this guy.

No, maybe not for the first time.

In the Cantinen Labyrinth, against this guy who fights on the front line, I was lost in the back, and in the Minotaur Battle, this guy couldn't use his arms and he was down in the junction before I arrived.

"Kyosuke! Don't scratch the corners that become ingredients!

"Minutes, I mean, I'm here!!

Me and the brave men, Kyosuke and Mr. Ziehl's battle forces are currently collecting the necessary materials to cross the continent requested by Noah.

It seems that the relatively safe ones, which are not medicinal herbs or demons, will be contracted out by Amarillis, who was able to see and Amelia, who was spared time, so our job as a combat unit was to procure materials that would be collected from demons all the time.

Nevertheless, this is not that simple.

This is the forest closest to the demonic realm.

Demons in this forest are more powerful enemies than demons in the lowest levels of the labyrinth.

For example, the demon that looks like we're being attacked by a herd right now, with a big horn on the boar's head.

Literally in a swine rush, when I found us entering my territory, I stuck out the corner and stood low, heading straight for the line.

You wouldn't be able to live if you were skewered in that big corner.

In fact, it was ahead of me when I exchanged demons, a tree of such a large trunk that even my arms couldn't hug me fell out of the roots due to the impact of a stab in the horn.

The demon pulls out easily by shaking his head of a large tree with a stab in the corner, and looks at this one again.

The method of skewering the prey seems to have a strong neck.

I can see through that quick advance, but what about the braves?

"Akira, you! Drop your neck because we will make a gap!!

Mr. Ziehl spoke to me like that while I was wondering what was going on.

I am more accustomed to Mr Ziehl, who held the vice-president of the Knights than I am to issuing directives to people.

It's been since I was training at the castle to collaborate like this, because night and Amelia can move as much as I want without having to give my support.

I guess that's why Mr. Ziehl asked me to stay.

I'm the one who can defeat this demon on top of the least accustomed to collaboration in this.

"Okay."

Think that far in a flash, and I'll use 'Sign Cover-up'.

If you don't have to work together, there's no reason why I'm showing up.

You saw where I was supposed to move when I was gone, and all of a sudden the brave men who moved better, Kyosuke and Jiehl, drove the demons to places where the trees would interfere with their manoeuvres.

And then it's my job.

"" Shadow Magic "- Startup." Shadowcage Eye ""

Our shadows, the shadows of the trees blocking the sun, gather at the feet of demons and draw cages.

A demon this size would be enough food for a few days, but now that I have a base and don't need it, I'm relentlessly going to fine-tune the demon.

After the shadow drew, just a chunk of meat was sinking to the ground.

"Hey, the corners...!

A brave man raises his voice like he panicked, but when he shows up, he looks at the horn I'm holding and shuts up.

Of course, I haven't forgotten about the ingredients.

I saved this just before I used shadow magic.

After the battle was over and we made sure there were no other demons around, we pulled out our shoulders.

I suppose it's because I cut it into thin pieces, but the smell of blood fills the area with the stench of death.

You should move out of here at once.

"Well, now you know, Akira. It doesn't seem like a fatal fit for you to collaborate."

Sharpen the skins of nearby trees to remove each of the blood paste on the sword.

It's really best to do an inspection after wiping with a soft cloth, but I can feel free to use a clean cloth in a place like this, and I can't carry anything with blood on it.

That inevitably led me to use wooden skins or to wipe them with cloths like clothes worn by rarely appearing human-shaped demons.

That's what Mr. Ziehl says as he prepares his raised breath.

I nodded at the word as I took a demonic stone of such magnitude out of a finely cut demon.

Even if my professional level was the best of these, my experience of collaboration is not.

"You won't be able to fathom the demon clan that you struggled alone in the blade collaboration."

Kyosuke calmly adds to it.

Well, Kyosuke is right.

I didn't even get to the true search level, but I didn't have any teeth in Aurum either.

It's just a suicide attempt to work with someone who can't win alone.

What we should not forget is that this place is the closest place to the demonic realm.

It's not necessarily that the abominable magic formations of the devil clans aren't here, and if there's all that magic in the first place, there will be one devil clan who can fly.

It is true that one or more enemies want to be reduced before entering Demonic territory, but if you don't want to meet them, that's fine.

Thinking of that as hard, you mistakenly thought I was snagging, and Mr. Ziehl followed me in.

"Well, Akira, since I heard about your previous combat experience, I knew it was difficult to work together. Collaborating is not always an advantage. Simply more trouble is good, but if the rhythm breaks down at all, that's enough to kill everyone at the party."

Even if that were the case, if there was one solo, we would be spared total annihilation, and I felt something cold pass through my spine to Mr. Ziehl, who said with a grin.

I feel there is a difference in values between us and the human beings of this world who are born.

Even I don't want to die, but I won't be able to set up an operation with the lives of the brave men in mind to save me alone.

"Even so, the best thing will be for all of us to survive. It's unacceptable that you can't work together at all."

I blushed unexpectedly at the words of a sermon brave man.

Even I know I have to work together.

But I have no idea what Kyosuke is in that position with, or why Mr. Ziehl attacked at that time.

"Well, let's just feel like right now. I'm not gonna talk about it until I get used to your moves."

That's what I told them to let go, and I turned my back on the three of them.

Would I have made the same move then, pleading not guilty to the end, if I had stayed in the castle?

I never thought I was making the wrong choice then, etc.

But I was sure that I felt something similar to jealousy when I didn't even have to say what I couldn't do.
