"Thank you all. I'll take it later."

That's what I told him. What I had was relief from the fact that the city people were safe and gratitude for the adventurers.

Honestly, I didn't think Marnell and his adventurers would stay here in this situation.

I do see Marnell and the others familiar with the city.

Still, the idea existed deep down in my mind that they would leave the people of the city to flee if it came to a time of need.

But the idea was only my own assumption.

Scratched, worn out, it should be noted that the figure of Marnell and the others who headed for Hobgoblin proved that above all eloquently.

"I have to apologize to Marnell and the others later."

Squeeze so small, laugh.

Apparently, I should talk to the Marnells more, though.

And to do so, we must first eliminate the enemy in front of us.

"So let's get this over with."

The Hobgoblins are still not completely out of the mess against me. [M]

Those hobgoblins stepped forward before they understood me as a threat.

"Gih!"

A dagger wielded with the force created by overwhelming physical strengthening.

It cuts off the neck of one hobgoblin.

"Kitsuke......"

It was then that one Hobgoblin, who finally admitted to being a threat to me, tries to raise the warning, but the warning interrupts along the way.

Before I ran out of words, I slit that hobgoblin's neck with a dagger.

Two hobgoblins killed instantly.

"Cacondeositubse!"

At that point, the Hobgoblins finally recognize that I am a strong and unafraid enemy and begin to move to take advantage of their own quantities to surround me.

That's a classic, yet effective operation.

But in that operation, it wasn't enough to overshadow the overwhelming power gap between me and Hobgoblin.

A wave of my dagger renders multiple hobgoblins incapable of combat.

"Then it's like they're coming to kill me."

"Giggy!?

In an instant you see the sight of multiple companions killed, and the movement of the hobgoblin is dull.

Finally, it's impossible to get beyond me to the people of the city.

"Hokanoningen nerae!"

At the next moment, the Hobgoblins ran upside down, as if it were a lie to be so obsessed with the people of the city.

What lies ahead is the appearance of the wounded adventurers.

Yes, the Hobgoblins, who understood that they could not kill the people of the city, attacked the adventurers by changing their spears.

Sure, the adventurers aren't as helpless as the people in the city, but if they're going to be attacked by the Hobgoblins at the same time as this, they're going to do less damage.

The adventurers who have been desperately trying to protect the people of the city from the Hobgoblins are so worn out.

But there was no upset with me even before the sight. [M]

"... unfortunately, I know the M.O."

I calmly set up a dagger against Hobgoblin's back. [M]

I'm sure I can kill the Hobgoblins before I reach the Adventurer.

"That's..."

It was at that moment that I noticed someone with blue hair coming all the way here.

When I realized who it was, I laughed and unraveled it.

As soon as possible, be sure that you no longer have to go out here.

I never missed that prediction.

"Ha!

"Gigga!?

The person, who ran between Marnell and the Hobgoblins without paying any attention to the dazzling adventurer, kicked a few hobgoblins into the momentum.

"Become!"

Suddenly, even the Hobgoblin, rather than the helped adventurer, did not understand what had happened.

In the meantime, her blue-haired girlfriend, Narsena, looked back at me with regret and bowed her head.

"Excuse me, brother. I'm late......"

I shake my head and tell Narsena I don't care.

"Never mind. 'Cause I can understand the trouble I've had with the Alliance."

Narsena smiled slightly at my words and turned to the Hobgoblins.

An agitation runs between Narsena and the hobgoblins who have become surrounded by me.

"Once you've cleaned this up, you'll tell me everything I know!

In the next few decades, the annihilation of the Hobgoblins was over.

◇ ◆ ◇

"It's an adventurer's guild, but apparently the branch manager and executive class guild staff have disappeared, and now it's a terrible mess"

After the annihilation of Hobgoblin, I listened from Narsena as I treated the adventurer to what was happening in the guild.

Honestly, I don't have very good feelings for this guild branch manager, and I didn't expect that much.

But getting away in this situation is too harsh.

"... did the guild employee in the executive class mean that Hanzam also disappeared"

What came to my mind was a gullible guild clerk once involved in an adventurer party called Wolf of Disaster.

I didn't know you were even running away to that guild employee named Hanzam.

It's not that I trusted you, but I understood that Hanzam had the strength inside.

That's why I didn't expect you to run away scared to Hanzam.

"Now, there's no point in remembering a man who escaped... What about the rest of the guild staff?

"All of them, they stayed. He also said all the leading adventurers who were in a fairly deep relationship with the Alliance were left behind.... just those guys, I wish I had taken them"

At the end of the day, Narsena's face, which she told me was blurry, had a sense of fatigue that she was not willing to hide, and I generally understood what had happened in the Adventurer's Guild.

Adventurers are many things that are strong enough for me to gain strength, and those who are terrible cause problems without even thinking about the situation.

Narsena, one of the few people who can make such an adventurer hear what it means to be powerful, must have been largely put to work.

"... good luck. Do you still want to break free in this situation?"

"Because some adventurers were plotting a fire scene thief by multiplying this noise. If it weren't for Lyla, I'd think the adventurers would have killed each other..."

"........................ ha"

I understand that I have to do something about the adventurers that I will like in the future, and I get a headache.

Now that we don't know what's going on, we can't leave the adventurers, who are valuable fighters.

"Especially this situation..."

I see the city adventurers groaning in front of me, and I squeal like that.

Marnell and the city's adventurers have grown at an unusual rate since they started bringing materials into the city.

A hobgoblin of unusual strength that cannot be defeated without 10 warriors of primary adventurers and five intermediate warriors.

The fact that we kept the herd in such numbers is more than proof of that.

... That's why the city's adventurers could not be counted on was a considerable loss of fighting power.

My treatment of the adventurer is worthwhile, and no dead man has come out of the adventurer.

But there's only a few things I can do on my own, and less than half the people I can fight.

Besides, the healer is exhausted, and he is almost out of recovery drugs, etc.

In this state, you wouldn't expect about half your normal fighting power either.

"... at least if you keep this available for regular healers"

The magic item that reinforces the healing magic that I made, and when I saw it, I shrugged. [M]

By using this magic prop, you can heal serious injuries with just "heels," and you can also throw it to heal long-distance humans.

It just takes both magic and attention to activate, and I can't handle it.

If the magic props could have been used by other healers, they would have asked other adventurers to heal the city's adventurers, but they wouldn't heal this many people, not knowing what's going on.

In spite of this situation, no, this is the situation, because it is the adventurers in this city who move to survive.

"... at least if only you would unite now"

Even though I know that, I leak that word.

The threat is only because we are convinced that it is not over.

I don't think this is the only Hobgoblin raid.

From what I've heard about Narsena, Hobgoblin is no longer among the labyrinth cities, and the Marnells and the city folks assume the battle is completely over.

Yet the chills still don't go away from me.

As yet, let them know that nothing is over.

... but even that my vigilance was only a raw thought before reality.

"Brother, the Warcraft is coming!

"... Huh?

Suddenly, Narsena utters a word of warning.

Pressured by that serious glance, I look beyond Narsena's gaze, but all there is is is the wall surrounding the labyrinth city, and there is no such thing as a hobgoblin.

It was then that Mr. Sieg, in a hurry, rushed in to ask Narsena what the warning meant.

"A newbie, the orcs are pushing over!

"─ Become!

Hobgoblin raids of unusual intensity that have dropped labyrinth cities into chaos.

... a little while until I realize that it's just the beginning.
