Saikyou Juzoku Tensei ~Cheat Majutsushi no Slow Life~

Eighteen Stories: The Ruins of Zeshum (9)

As we continued our work on analyzing the Griffon statue, if we noticed, all the people in the investigation team were taking out their sleeping bags and falling asleep.

Apparently, Myzen, who had been entrusted with the watch, was looking toward the aisle in a stretch mix.

That guy, at some point, is familiar with nature.

When the eyes meet, Meizen wakes up her body.

"Abel, keep an eye on your surroundings. I'm gonna get some herbs."

Herbs?...... Oh, the bathroom.

It's like picking flowers from a previous life.

Nothing. Just say it normally. Are you a maiden?

"Oh, come on"

Return your gaze from Meizen to the Griffon statue.

Everhide was banging between the tongue and his own brow.

Analytical work is focused. For that matter, mental fatigue is also intense.

Evelhide is also old.

I take the vial out of my nose and give it to Evelhide.

"Go ahead."

"Mm, what's this?

"It's a potion I made. You'll be drowsy, you'll be more focused."

Everhide had a look on his face that looked complicated since he received it.

Afraid, he opens the lid, hands up and smells the smell.

"... don't use more than two types of plants that are regulated for use. I know you do, but let me tell you something. These kinds of drugs are basically forbidden to be brought or possessed in most cities unless they are made by a licensed person."

"Oh, are you serious..."

I didn't normally know......

Oh, should I throw this away?

I still have some spare parts for Abel Potion.

So, you're gonna be okay. Tariff luggage inspections weren't that strict...

"It's a hobgoblin! Everybody, wake up!

Myzen came back screaming.

I hear Myzen's voice and the investigation teams wake up.

"How many?

One of the raised investigation teams asks.

"Wow, I don't know! There were more than fifteen! He was on his way here, he should be here any minute!

"Such an idiot! Though easy, you must have seen the ruins all the way. There's room for goblins to hide beyond ten..."

Hobgoblin, it's a D-class monster.

The most orthodox goblin is only around a meter long, but the hobgoblin is human size.

It's more like a ghost than a child ghost.

The body surface is not green, and the skin tone is close to yellow.

"Perhaps he was hiding in the woods. He saw us enter the ruins, and he predicted when he would attack his sleep. That's what Goblin thinks."

Only Evelhide said so in a calm manner as the other investigators panicked.

"I see, that's Mr. Everhide!

"You still lack practice, Abel."

"We're going to improve."

"What are you calming down, Master Evelhide! We'll get out of here! We'll make our way!

Investigation crews stop at Everhide.

"I am not guided as you are. About Hobgoblin, destroy it somehow. Even if you run away now, you won't be disturbed and enemies if you wander around later. Didn't you follow me for that?"

"Ju, I thought the XV was a little harsh... If we could have discovered it early, this place would have been..."

There are twelve soldiers in the investigation team.

That mouthfeel of Meizen doesn't make Hobgoblin strange to be near twenty.

Hobgoblins are probably stronger than meizens if they are one-on-one.

"The weak! Out of the way, I stand in the front row, stopping Hobgoblin from moving. If the number drops to half, you'll be out retreating, so if your opponent's movements change, throw away your protection and go on offense all at once. Don't talk to me!

"Yes, but... but... the lord told me to prioritize the safety of Master Wegener and Master Evelheid..."

"But I wonder if there's anything! Quick, give directions to those around you, too!

"Yes!

Everhide took a few steps toward those who would have Hobgoblin coming, then looked back at this one.

"Abel, keep analyzing."

"Is it okay if I don't go that way, too?

"Not necessary"

Damn, this popular......

We need to keep the analysis going, even a little bit.

"Oh, and, Mr. Evelheid,"

"Mm?"

"Will you keep about three of them alive?

"What are you going to do?

"No, because I want to try to unbind from various directions...... maybe a misunderstanding, for once. I hope it's possible."

"... well, isn't it pointless? Leave it to me."

Everhide turned his back on me when he answered that, then walked away after the investigation team.

"Duh, what's wrong? You're not running away?

Looks like it just happened. Wegener catches a nearby investigator.

"I'm sorry... that when Master Evelhide fights..."

"Yeahh!? I'm not kidding! Wow, I'm getting away! Put an escort on me!

"But it would be better if you waited in the back rather than disperse and poorly flee in small numbers...... Other corridors may have been seized."

"Then why don't we all run away! If Lord Everhide wants to stay, you can leave him!

"But but..."

"You think Evelhide is heavier than this Wegener's life? I'll report this to my lord! Is that good!?

When Wegener yelled so, a group of hobgoblins appeared from behind the aisle.

"Don't be cowardly, yuck! Hey right end man, don't let the stick distract you too much! Even if it's basic!

Using Evelhide's anger as a signal, the battle began.

"Ah!? Also, I'm here already! I'm sorry, Master Wegener, because I'll hear your scolding later!

"Hey, Ma, wait! Even if you wait, you don't have an escort or anything! Oh, hey!

Reach for the back of the investigative crew Wegener ran to the battlefield.

Then I knelt down on the ground disappointed.

... What are you really doing here?

Meir sleeps holding Cantera.

There is a blanket on my back that I borrowed from the investigators.

They didn't even happen in the current commotion.

... I feel like he said he was awake or something until I went to bed, but he's completely asleep.

"আ ল ো (O Light) ট া ই (Tied)"

"Humouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!

Evelhide's spell and hobgoblin screams echo the ruins.

Shake your shoulders like Mere did and open your thin eyes.

"Me, Meir, I wasn't asleep. Because I was just a little unconscious! Just a little!"

"... oh well. It didn't matter if I stayed away from it."

"I wasn't asleep... Um, is something wrong?

"No, it doesn't seem like a problem"

"Oh, really?"

If that sounds dangerous, I was going to give it to you, but so far it doesn't seem necessary.

And Wegener approached me.

"What, what is it? If you ever complain about the way I analyze it again..."

"I'll give you the courtesy to protect this Wegener. It's an honor, wild magician."

…………

... What the hell is this guy really?
