The Strongest Wizard Becomes a Countryside Guardsman After Taking an Arrow to the Knee
400 Mysterious Barriers
Luca explains, running without slowing down.
"Elkay would have a Mithril mine, wouldn't it?
"Right, that's what I heard"
The Mithril Mine is the leading industry in Elkay today.
The mine is also dying, so Miriam and Vivi are trying to farm.
"The first request to come to the Adventurer Alliance was a demonic exorcism at the Mithril Mine."
"Hmm?"
"Crusade difficulty wasn't that high in itself..."
"What was the Demon Rank?
"B-rank demon."
Luca says it's not that expensive, but B-rank demons generally fall into the dangerous category.
Besides, there are few adventurers in the city of Elkay. Leo and Rae are brothers and sisters with the highest rank of B.
It's too dangerous to let Leo and Rae alone go on a B-rank demon crusade.
That's why we can't let other adventurers accompany us.
Except for Leo and Rae, only a few Elkay adventurers have a rookie F-rank.
I can't send Leo, Rae and F-rank adventurers alone to the B-rank demon crusade. There will surely be a dead man.
Covering the F-rank adventurer would also give Leo and Rae a better chance of dying.
"And when I heard that the number of demons wasn't the same, I decided to go, too, just in case."
"That would be good. I'd leave it to the A-rank party if I were to crusade the B-rank Demon Herd."
"Yeah. So I headed to the mine with the Rares..."
Luca and the others were entering the pit. Five B-rank demons were cleaned up lightly.
Naturally, given Luca's strength. Leo and Rae's brothers and sisters are not weak either.
"And I tried to get back to the city from the mine... The beast of warcraft has come to haunt me."
"Hmm?"
That's also clearly what the Warcraft has been poking at for the mine, he said.
It's hard to imagine a demon in a natural state going for a mine.
"Are you a zombie?
"You weren't a zombie."
"Right. It's unusual not to be a zombie."
"It's not unusual, is it?
Luca is right. But he was a zombie when it came to demons that were manipulated recently.
Maybe the M.O. is different than usual.
"So I joined forces with the Rares, and I kept intercepting them overnight."
"That's tough."
"It's tough, but if you leave, they'll destroy the mine's equipment, right?
In that case, the economic blow to the city of Elkay will be enormous.
"Right. So you were able to protect the mine?
"Yeah. I can handle it. Rae and the others did their best."
So I guess the Rares were exhausted.
Luca, who has been fighting for hours and is still showing good health, is just unusual.
"I hunted down the demons that came to the mine and tried to return to Elkay..."
"You mean you were attacked by example clay."
"That sort of thing. The clay mass was clearly headed for Elkay."
Apparently the clay mass travels surprisingly fast.
If you take it apart, it stops once. But he will be resurrected soon.
So when I tried to get the Rares to call for backup while I tore them apart and stopped them.
I saw a statue descend from the sky.
"I see."
"That kind of magic can only be used by Al, right?
So Luca laughed.
While we're talking about that, we arrive in the city of Elkay.
We stopped at the Elkay Gate.
The entire city of Elkay was wrapped up in something like a pale white barrier.
"Huh?
Sigishoara looked at the barrier and tilted her neck.
"Al. What is this? That's a bee."
Luca touches the barrier and gets bounced. Fem also clawed at the barrier.
- Gakin.
Femme's fingernails have begun!
Some of them are Cruz and Ulina. There's Vivi, Stef, Leo, and Rae.
Probably fine, but it makes me anxious.
Al, I'll take care of it. Break it with strength. I'll be in trouble if anything happens.
"Right. Leave it to me."
I put an iron box of demons in the ground.
It's easy to break by force, but that's what Luca can do.
While I'm on Femme's back, I carefully analyze the magic flow of the barrier.
"The center is... around that mysterious metal statue..."
"That triangular disgusting one?
"Yes, yes. Does that mean we're not going to break it?"
Cruz and Kei described that disgusting statue as cool.
Whatever Kei is, Cruz's intuition is not insulting.
If Cruz found it cool, it's likely that statue isn't a bad one.
With that in mind, I analyze the magic flow of the barrier and force a hole in it.
At that moment, I felt great magic flowing in the direction of Elkay.
"Luca, get inside while you can"
"Okay."
Luca goes inside, holding a box of metal with the demon in it.
"Fem. please"
"Wahoo."
Entering the city with Femme, I close a hole in the barrier.
"Let's just rendezvous with the Cruz"
"Right. I wonder if Rae and I could get together with Cruz."
"It depends on when the barrier is built."
We started running around Elkay City.
