The Man Picked Up By the Gods (Reboot)

Next day

The same hunt for Trent today. If there is something different, is it possible to defeat them more handily than on the first day thanks to their accustomed fighting?

Thanks initially to around a week. If the Trent material gathering was bad, it would have taken two weeks to gather it, but considering the way it had been gathered until today, this job was to finish the hunt today or tomorrow and return to Giml.

"Ha!"

Break Trent's face from forehead to jaw. Carry on. Cut up one face that was next to that right from the bottom left and it's two straight. Spread another Trent branch further down and cut it off from the side.

This... I think I've done it many times, but don't be like a mask when I cut it off from the side...

Think of the crap and finish the 3 Trents and make sure there are no other individuals around.

"Looks like Lyoma got used to Trent a lot too."

"Lyoma is quick to get used to dealing with his swordsmanship for what he used to wear."

"There's no use in the movement."

"Thank you. Martial arts are thoroughly tapped into by my grandfather, so I'm pretty confident."

It's a dangerous place for once, but this is how I can afford to talk to you lightly. It's not good to get too distracted, but too little room is also a problem, so it would be just fine.

But further down, the ambience suddenly changed.

Concentrate on Magic Sensing......!

"Mr. Rapin."

"Hmm. That's a lot of money... unfortunately, I can't grasp everything from here. Asagi."

"Probably because we have Elder Trent ahead of us. Proceed while securing an exit route and return to the Alliance with information if you believe it is not possible."

And while paying attention to your surroundings, moving on...

"" Ha!!

"Nyaa!!

――

"Aye."

"'Windcutter!

A new herd of Trents in the direction of progress. The guys who noticed us are slowly crawling and attacking. That number is too high and we have to deal with it in total.

The women aim at their faces with a hand axe and a natta, and Mr. Asagi is slashing them with a machete below their face. Mr. Rapin magically covers it. I'm gonna put Trent behind us, trying not to be surrounded by Trent.

……

I don't see an end to Trent coming one after the other from the back. Fortunately, one is not so strong. And the Trent that we are tailoring is not firmly rooted on the ground while we are on the move, and when we are tailored, we are able to fall to the ground to ensure vision.

"No problem yet, but you don't have any kiri!

I somehow found that everyone agreed, although there was no response from anyone to Mr Syria's words.

"As far as magic sensing goes, most of the trees around here are Trent! We're going to cut everything down!

"Guys, don't push it! Withdrawal is no disgrace!

"I know!

"A species with life!

I don't feel very serious from you guys for the conversation. Simply checking, I'm on my way to the next Trent immediately. Again, you all have A- and B-ranks. I guess this position is nothing.

I'll concentrate on my work, too. There are a few more Trents coming this way.

Put the knife in the sheath and ask Big Metal Slime, who was instead entrusted with the sheath role, to separate it.

"Huh!? What are you willing to do?

"I'll pace up a bit!

100 separated metal slimes at foot. When two of them are lifted and instructed, the two deform as instructed.

Metal slime deformed with an "axe" for throwing.

Because it is for throwing, I will strengthen my body with care and throw it!!

"Ohh..."

"O...... O......"

The two axes arc beautifully and pierce the foreheads of the two Trents who were dropping by. And knock it down. Axe the next metal slime soon afterwards, and throw. If you throw it, repeat the next metal slime...... and even throw an axe around!!

Experience has shown that there seems to be a bias in Trent's magic.

Overall, there seems to be an even amount of magic going on, but there is only one part of it that has more magic than the others. That is the weakness “face".

Apparently Trent's face needs magic to go over his body. It seems to be the heart of what humans say, and magic is gathering. And when you get hurt there, magic falls out of your wound at once and you die... when you compare your face to your heart, magic to your blood, you're like a human being.

But unlike blood, the flow of magic can be grasped with magic sensing. In other words, Trent is a demon that knows the position of weakness if it can detect magic. So the magic sensing also allowed me to grasp the target's position.

Defeat it with a single blow from outside the unreachable time of attack.

I'm not out of magic because I don't use magic for this, and I'm less tired because my body is strengthened with my chi.... To be honest, it's gotten a lot easier.

It should also be noted that if it is a normal throwing weapon, it cannot be attacked any further if it throws the weapon in your hand. But what I'm throwing is metal slime, so I'll come home myself after the stab. Therefore, I don't have to worry about losing ammo, and I can take it down crisp without the hassle of collecting it.

Besides, Trent reacts and attacks when the metal slime he throws returns, but even the slow leg stops at that point, making it even easier to aim and defeat it before it gets close to the attack range. It's no longer a fight, it's close to work.

By the way, all the metal slimes attacked are safe. A blow with a wooden stick against a mass of metal was ineffective.

This is how we unilaterally tailor Trent to come around behind us, and everyone else ravages the Trents ahead.

The number of Trents decreased as I looked around, and the surrounding forests turned into squares just scattered with fallen Trents. Ordinary trees only grow sparsely.

"You got through it for now... but it's still weird"

"What is it?

Ask Mr. Rapin, who shrugged.

"First of all, the number of Trents is too high. I have never seen such a number of flocks. And this place. Trento is a tree that has become a warcraft with magic, but this is the first time I have heard of a wide range of trees becoming Trento. Finally, the extreme is array"

In the direction indicated by Mr. Rapin, giant trees stood in the distance. I feel strong magic, so that's probably...

"Is that Elder Trent?

"I think so...... my brother has seen Elder Trent several times, but this is the first time he has seen an individual with all that giant and strong magic. Besides, I wonder why that Elder Trent isn't coming at us."

Hearing the words, Meeya, who had just arrived nearby, inquired earlier than I did.

"What about the possibility of being nasty when you realize it?

"There is nothing more to it than defeating Trent, his compatriot so far. It's possible they won't attack us because they don't think they can beat us, but it's odd that they're still there without running away."

If so...

"Is there any reason I can't move from there?

"It is reasonable to think so, but there is no precedent. At least we've never heard of Elder Trent not fleeing and not coming after him."

"Is it a little dangerous to leave it... crusade, or even just take some info... what about the rapin, the rheuma, the magic?

"No problem."

"Neither did I. I barely used magic."

"That's what you were saying. I didn't think you'd throw the slime with an axe. … Then you'll be on guard, but rest a little longer before you go hunting for Elder Trent"

Decided to go hunting Elder Trent, reaffirming the characteristics of the enemy.

As I had previously heard as Trent's superior species, I took a break after a call for attention to tree attribute magic.

He said you were all interested in my slime throwing during the break, especially when asked by Syria, who usually uses a bow.

* Slime weapon *

"Mr. Lyoma. It's that weapon, but it's slime, right?

"Yes, I think I showed you all the Hughes Cavender Slime at my previous job, but this also just replaced the kind of metal slime and iron slime. It's a collection of many slimes.

My weapon is a knife, but unfortunately it's hard to get at the moment, so I solved it like this. "

"It's good to have been able to solve it. But the metal slime was axed."

"Yes, this weapon is a slime-specific" deformable body ”and a metal and iron“ metal body. "It is a variable weapon that utilizes these two. I went to buy equipment maintenance the other day, and I talked to a guy named Tigger, an arms dealer."

He said he was interested in running a weapons store, so I talked to him about it.

In it, the conversation shifted to the style of "if you can change shape freely, you can change weaponry freely to suit your prey and circumstances" and "if you are not of sufficient quality for practical use, you are dangerous on the contrary”, and eventually, with Mr. Tigger's cooperation, you were able to teach slime the change to a large number of weapons.

"I was tattooed from the beginning that there was no problem with knives and knives, but I was told that axes that I don't normally use as weapons are still sweet,"

"Is the result just now? When it came to teaching that many, wasn't it tough?

"Sounds like we're sharing experiences, and after we remembered it in the Big State, we were able to do it in pieces, so not so much."

By the way, as I showed you earlier, not only will you come back on your own if you throw it, but you have “hypertrophy” and “shrinkage” skills if you're more than big, so you can freely deform everything from one-handed swords to large, heavyweight weapons such as the Great Sword. Besides, blade spills and the like are also excellent objects that the slime deforms and repairs on its own.

"That's a hell of a weapon to think of."

"It saves you the trouble of replacing it and saves you money"

"It's a different sense of security to be able to continue using it without restriction than that."

"Ranged weapons are a problem because they run out of ammo... lightly against the rules"

I was told by the women.

"Oh, by the way..."

Remove a single rope from the item box to show.

"This rope is so sturdy, don't you think? I made the toughest of the threads that my sticky slime can throw up."

"Thin, but sturdy."

"Try cutting with this axe, Mr. Miseria"

"Fine... is that it? I can't, I can't cut."

"Isn't it sturdy? I also talked to Tigger about the yarn that's made of this material, and he's going to try the protective equipment that uses this yarn."

"Lyoma feels like someday she's going to slime her whole body together."

Take a break while they say that, and start over.

But when I started walking towards Elder Trent, there was a sudden anomaly in the metal slime along the way.

"Wait a minute, please"

"What's up?

"What's going on with the metal slime... fear?... I'm starting to get scared of something."

The effect of the contract tells me how the metal slime looks, but I'm so frightened that I'm likely to escape right now. This frightening way... is there something you don't like...?

"Are you all right?

"Sorry, metal slime is unlikely to be able to fight in this state"

"Don't make me do it."

Sweet for your words and put the metal slimes inside the dimension home. But I'm curious... the way the metal slimes frightened me was unusual. I thought you were also a natural enemy...... only one Elder Trent as far as I can see.

"Elder Trent can be a natural enemy of Slime?

"Never heard of it."

... Sure, only the metal slimes were frightened and the iron slimes seem fine. What the hell happened to the metal slime?... Well, it's good to have Iron Slime in the war. For once I have a spare weapon, because an iron slime knife is the best weapon.

Once again I go on to see how things are going, and now there are anomalies around me.

"Left tree!

"Holy shit!

That time I passed beside the sparse trees.

The tree is just a tree in my magic senses. Perhaps even Mr. Rapin's sensing did. But the moment we tried to pass beside the tree, the tree suddenly turned into Trent and hit us.

Especially since Mr. Rapin immediately detected me and I was punished by Mr. Meeya...

"What is this all about?

"Rapin?

"This tree was not Trent until earlier. It is now in this moment that it has become Trent. This can't have happened."

Trent is a warcraft whose trees have become warcraft with magic, but not all at once. You think it's normal to change slowly over time?

When I say that, I feel that the sparse trees have once again changed to Trent.

"Mr. Rapin."

"Uhm, Trent is born again and again"

"This is unexpected..."

"This is the situation, as expected."

Well, there are definitely fewer problems than earlier, but I care about this anomaly. Concentrate on Magic Sensing in order to deal with the surrounding Trent even though you think so. Then I felt magic from the soil.

"There's something in the dirt!" Blake Rock, "" Breeze "!

Break down the ground feeling magical and blow it with wind magic strong winds.

Then there are the roots of the trees through which I feel magic flowing.

This is what Mr. Rapin shouts when he realizes it, too.

"Elder Trent root!... What if Elder Trent was sending magic into the trees through this root and turning it into Trent? If you think about it, you can be convinced that if Elder Trent shows up, Trent will surge. But I didn't know there were individuals who would use it in an ambush. This is an amazing discovery!

"You have to deal with it before research!

"Anyway, the only way to solve this situation is to defeat Elder Trent?

"It is likely that If we leave this alone, there's a chance that we'll have more torrents for that matter."

"It's still about 500m to Elder Trent… it's time to approach and finish Elder Trent at once. Lyoma, the lord, please. Elder, Trent is the last we'll ever have, so please stop Trent from coming after us!

"Roger!!

It was early to move from there to action.

Four of them, Mr Welanna, Mr Meyer, Mr Miseria and Mr Asagi, preceded them in logging Trento in the direction of progress. Then I, Mr. Rapin, and Mr. Syria follow.

Fortunately, Trent's movement was slow, and Trent was not an obstacle. At last, however, as we approach, the Elder Trent body launches a direct attack.

It's still far from the branch's range of attack. But they attacked the ground with their roots in the ground.

Besides, they're using the tree magic that was in the information, and the roots are stretching and trying to catch us.

Mr. Rapin is a windcutter, we cut him off with a weapon and deal with him, but there are a lot of them, especially the attacks coming from his feet are hard to deal with.... right!

"'Payments'!

Magic for paving, also used when building shops. This will buy you some time if you push and consolidate the ground.

"I'll cover you!

"Help!"

This is how we stormed Elder Trent at once.
