Episode 74: Protect the camp base!
I was the one who got rid of a bunch of high trolls alone to show everyone my strength, but I managed to get them to admit that I had crusaded demons without any problems.
"But it's strange that a bunch of high trolls show up in a place like this. In the first place, they're not supposed to be anywhere near people or the streets."
Mr. Roddy looks at the bodies of the hightrolls and puts them around his neck.
Sure, if you ask me.
"Hmm, maybe it's a relic of an example."
"If so, we need to rush the investigation before the damage is done to the surrounding villages."
"Uhm."
And that was when the new policy was decided.
"Hey, look at that!"
An adventurer who was vigilant around him points in a certain direction and raises his voice.
When we were followed and looked in the same direction, we saw smoke rising on the other side.
"Is that... smoke?
Smoke was rising at the end of the street, at the foot of the mountain.
"That's... that's where the first camp is!?"
To Wanda's words, the adventurers twirl.
"First Camp!? Are you in trouble!?"
"What do we do? You want me to send you a reconnaissance?
"No, it's obvious that something is going on. Hurry. We should rendezvous too. Our purpose is to explore the ruins, so we have to go to the camp one way or another."
Opinions collide that we should act cautiously and that we should hurry because which way are we going?
"Then I'll go."
and running for reconnaissance was a senior in the S-ranks, Mr. Rummys, the devil's guide.
"I can use the flying magic of Lost Magic. You'll get there sooner than you can by carriage."
"Hmm, can you ask?
Mr Wanda seems to have bothered me for a moment, but I accept Mr Ramies' suggestion immediately.
This speed of decisiveness is just a matter of taking command of the front lines in the S-rank banned area.
A good commander is nice.
And you shouldn't.
Not if you're impressed.
"Um, can I accompany you because I can use flying magic, too?
"I can use it, too."
We're new on this team, so if there's anything we can do, we need to step forward.
"What the hell!?"
When me and Lilliera step forward, for some reason, Mr. Ramies gets a gnawed face.
"Oh, you guys can use flying magic too!?"
Mr. Ramies is surprised for some reason, but is something wrong?
"Yes, I'm not going to be a foot wrapper"
"Okay. Sorry to bother you after the battle, but I'll ask you to reconnaissance."
With Mr. Wanda's permission, we had to get ahead of camp one.
◆
"I see it, that's the camp"
Having flown ahead of us, we confirm the many tents covered with square walls at the foot of the mountain and the demons that flock to the sole.
"Oh my God, some of the walls are broken!
I notice that a corner of the wall protecting the camp has been destroyed and try to rush towards it.
"Ma, wait! You guys are too fast!
Looking back, Mr. Ramies was pretty much behind him.
Oh? Maybe Mr. Ramies doesn't like flying magic?
"Sorry, camping is dangerous, so we'll go first!
"Oh, hey!!"
"Let's go, Mr. Liliera!
"Yes!"
We didn't wait for Mr. Ramies to catch up and headed to the campsite.
"Hey, what's that speed!? He said he's faster than me, the leader in flying magic!?"
Hmm? Sounded like something Mr. Ramies said he was good at flying magic, but I guess I heard wrong?
◆
When we arrived at the camp, we saw the scene of the riot.
"Hurry up and defeat the demons!
Mr. Liliera descends from the sky to rescue an adventurer who was about to be killed by a demon.
I'd like to join you soon, but I guess I'll have to fix the broken wall first.
"Protective Stonewall!"
I create new walls instead of walls that have been magically destroyed by stone walls.
Demons who tried to pass through the holes in the destroyed wall are blown from the ground into the walls of competing stones and fall into the rear demons.
Blown demons attack walls angrily, but that's not just a stone wall.
The effect of the grant magic makes it a stronger wall than iron.
I think the demon claw I attacked broke more.
"All right, this completes the first aid.
But we've been attacked by walls with holes, so let's reinforce them with stone walls.
"More Protective Stonewall!
The fact that all four walls covering the campsite were covered with stone walls made it impossible for the demons to enter the campsite.
Every demon is desperate to slap a wall or snap it with his nails, but there is no sign that the wall will break.
The nails of the Ningro demons were worn out more.
All right, after that, if you defeat the demons that entered the camp, this place will rise.
"Ya finally caught up!
If I wanted to join the fight from now on, Mr. Ramies arrived.
"What's the situation!?"
"I magically repaired the wall protecting the camp because it was being destroyed. After that, destroy the demons in the camp and you'll be able to hold on until the rest of us arrive."
Yes, there's no need to fight the enemy more than a camp made up of A-rank adventurers struggling so far.
I think you're right to make sure you're safe in the camp and then wait for everyone else to follow you.
"What if you are still doing such a sneaky thing? There are quite a few demons in there from what I've seen. This place should be wiped out at once!
With that said, Mr. Ramies begins to cast a spell.
"O ye that dwell in the great river of fire. Its appearance, a flame willing to make it a burning, melting rock serpent and bring about a drip of blood. Burn down my enemies according to my will, Lavasnake!!"
A bright red lava appears before Mr. Ramies, which turns him into a giant lava serpent.
This is an attack magic of a tracking system mimicking an organism.
That's this magic...
"Come on, it's Lavasnake! Clear out any demons that break into the camp!
The fiery serpent hits the demons that attack the camp.
"You shouldn't!
Not with that magic!
"Frost Gail!!"
I offset Mr. Ramies' magic with ice wind magic. [M]
"Hey, what!? My magic!? What have you just done!? My magic is Lost Magic!? There's no way I can offset that with just ice wind magic or anything!?"
"More than that, now magic will burn you to the camp! I'm going to wind up with even the worst adventurers to save!
But Mr. Ramies laughs at my advice. [M]
"What if I'm saying such a sweet thing? The A-rank Adventurers defend the camp and are under immense attack! In this situation, prepare for some sacrifice, but if you don't destroy the demons, you won't be able to help even those who can! Or are you saying that you can attack only demons without involving adventurers in this turmoil!?"
"I can do it!
"Sora... what!?"
I assure you, Mr. Rummies gives me a voice of surprise.
"Well, then do it and show it! Take down all these demons and show them! If there's anything I can do!
"I'll try!
I take position over the center of the camp and activate the magic.
"Hydravenom Stake!"
The magic unleashed branches in multiple ways, increasing as if it were Hydra's neck.
And the magic pile strikes only at the demons in the camp.
Demons pierced by magic piles scream in pain.
"No! Beautiful defeat with that amount of damage!
That's how Mr. Ramies starts casting spells to attack the demons.
But I will stop Mr. Ramies. [M]
"It's okay. 'Cause I'm done."
"What?"
I was surprised at my words, Mr. Ramies, but the demons on earth moved strangely, which changed their expression.
"What!? What happened!?"
The demons, who were showing strange movements, wandered around when they fell to the ground.
"Hydravenom stake, as you can see, is the magic of stretching your neck and attacking enemies like Hydra. But that's not the only effect, the attacked opponent is a magic with a grant effect that leads to death by virulent poison."
"Also, fierce poison!?"
"This magic was created to wipe out catastrophic demons in a short period of time."
"A catastrophic demon that grows in a short period of time?... that legendary demon Infinity Mouse that destroyed the capital of Bamyam overnight!?"
Infinity Mouse, a rat-shaped demon that lays eggs every five seconds and grows in a hell of a lot of momentum.
By its very nature, it seeks a large amount of nutrition, so much so that the town where Infinity Mouse was discovered is said to perish overnight.
Doom in one night in real life, not metaphors, by the way.
This magic was developed to destroy such infinity mice.
If you lay eggs every five seconds, it's a very simple theory that you have to kill them at a rate higher than that.
Yeah, I was the one who made it, of course.
And Infinity Mouse's birth can be the great failure of a magic engineer at the time.
Damn, I hope you don't let anyone else get your failure butt stuffed.
"And I can't believe it. I didn't know the magic that crusaded that legendary demon existed......, no, that's not all! If you control magic with any degree of precision, this kind of magic... and the power consumption must be tremendous."
"Oh, control is an application of exploratory magic. Now I'll just pick up the demonic reaction. And magic consumption can be considerably curtailed with efficient manipulation."
It's the type of magic that consumes magic in the air, for example.
"You said you could create magic!?"
Mr. Ramies looks stunned when he hears he's going to have a surgical ceremony.
No, no, it's creation. Why, it's like a god thing.
"It's not such a difficult magic. The basics are normal tracking magic..."
"Hey, give me a minute! I'll give you a note now!... All right, good! Keep going!
Looks like Ramies has his notes ready, so I tried to restart the explanation.
"That's not the case! We've got wounded, so go get help! You can use healing magic!!"
We inadvertently immersed ourselves in a magic talk, and Mr. Liliera's kaminari fell back.
"I'm sorry."
Don't, it's been a long time since I've been obsessed with technical stories.
We decided to hurry to the wounded.
"And it's a lot of magic. It's called an earlier battle, and it's a convincing strength to be the youngest and most S-ranked in history. Kukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukukuku."
"Huh?"
The atmosphere of Mr. Ramies, who said that, was not at all tight until earlier, but rather very soft.
Could it have been an act to measure my power to use the magic of a lava snake over there?
Yeah, it's not an impossible story.
There's no reason why S-rank adventurers can't beat this many demons.
As far as it goes, it was an operation to gauge the true price of the opponent by pressing him to make a choice in extreme conditions immediately after he was caught off guard in the battle against High Troll.
That's S-rank adventurer, and the way you identify strength is also Spartan.
"Okay! I'm going to temper you again!
