"... I don't see any strong demons."

It's been a long time since we started moving on to Merchia.

On the map, it's supposed to be time to go into the Chilean woods, but there's no way a strong demon can show up.

They may be stronger than normal plains, but none of them have the level of demons we need to fight seriously.

"Isn't the Forest of Examples something yet?

"But there was a forest on the map."

That's what I answer to the words of Illis.

The way it's been going, I'm sure of it.

We also use the magic of exploring directions based on magnetism and the stars floating in the sky, and we are making no mistake, as we are making sure.

"Hmmm. We talked about going straight to Merchia and going right into the Chilean Forest for the sake of it... there's no such thing as a demon..."

"Something's getting deeper in the woods, and the atmosphere just sounds like it!

Talk about it, we're going down the woods.

Along the way, I noticed a strange reaction to Passive Detection.

No, weird could be a mistake.

I haven't seen much since I was reincarnated, but it should have been a familiar kind of reaction in my previous life.

"... all three of you, give me a minute. I'll be right back."

That's how I run through the woods.

While erasing signs and magic reactions.

We then rely on 'passive detection' to proceed towards the reaction we just had.

There was - a giant monkey demon, a few meters long.

"Ki!?

Look at me showing up in front of you, trying to attack me with a face like a monkey demon panicked.

But it's late.

Faster than a monkey shaking his nails down, I dive into the monkey's pocket and amputate his neck with one blow.

Then, a little later.

"... a demon with intelligence, you mean this guy?

I put the monkey demons on the ground that I defeated because I said so.

Seeing that, Lurii screams with a surprised face.

"This...... isn't Wism Monkey!

"... Wismonkey?

"Yes! Of all the demons with intelligence, in the Chilean woods, it's the strongest one! Or lead the demons around you - no way, you've been knocking them down!?

... I see. Is that what you mean?

I imagined I could speak like an Illis because I call him a demon with intelligence... apparently, it was unexpected.

"I've been knocking it down. And now we know why there's never been a demon before."

"Why didn't you answer?

"Oh. We... we're getting away with this."
