The time is after ten o'clock at night.

When Kazuto was confronting Trent in the park, Ichinose and Roppo were in their rooms.

"Huh... I'm free."

"Right."

In contrast to the boringly stretched Roppo, Ichinose sits on the floor and is immersed in the work.

"Nappy, what are you doing?

"Bullet Stock Creation"

When I say that, Ichinose's hands glow pale.

When the light subsided, there was one bullet appearing there.

It's a bullet created by her skill, Bullet Creation. This bullet created by MP consumption will not disappear until it is used once. So this is how she tried to create a spare bullet when she could afford time or MP.

"Wow, that's such a handy skill. Like an alchemist."

That's what Rokka says and puts his hands together.

It's an array of twice animated super famous alchemist comics.

No matter, nothing happens. I didn't see the truth, and there's no way I can do that.

"As it is, well, there are limits to the amount you can create at a time. Still, thanks to Momo's" Shadow, "I guess I'm thankful to be able to stock a lot."

Humph and I laughed a little better. Ichinose stores the bullet he made in the 'shadow' at his feet.

Her "shadow" is connected to Momo's "shadow", where she can store some objects. The example monster rifle is also housed in the 'shadow'.

Once you've created a stock of ammunition, the next step is to develop new weapons. Demonic stones and materials for this purpose are also stored in the Shadow.

"Mr. Kudo will be working hard by now, and I have to do what I can."

This time, only Kazuto went outside. There are three of us, Momo, Aka and Kiki, to be exact, but everyone else is waiting inside the 'Safe Zone'.

Time should be used effectively even in voicemail.

(If it's true, I wanted to go with you...)

To be honest, I wanted to fight with you.

But there's nothing more she can do than match her sniping skills to Trent's worst.

It's okay, Momo and the others are attached, and his strength convinces him that there's no problem.

"- And while I thought in my heart, I really couldn't help but rush right now"

"Huh!"

The words of the six flowers freak me out, and a newly created bullet falls to the floor.

"Haha, even if it's too easy to understand"

"Hih, don't speak for people's feelings on your own!

"No matter what you think, you're a star."

"Uh-oh..."

Pussy and angry Ichinose, but honestly I'm not scared at all.

Rokka felt rather smiling somewhere,

"It's okay, Nat."

"Huh?"

"If you don't mind, you'll be fine."

In a strong tone similar to that of certainty, Rokka affirmed.

"... why would Rich think that?

He said, "hey, hey, hey." He said we're not the kind of people to worry about. And... "

Rokka tried to say something, it was that moment.

Zudong! And I heard an awesome 'sound' coming from the outside.

"Huh... Hey, what's that noise now?"

"Yeah, definitely."

The two immediately understood what the 'sound' was.

Open the window and stare in the direction of the sound.

It was dark and invisible, but they understood correctly what had happened.

"Look, I knew it. Sounds like a successful operation."

"... yeah"

That's why they laughed happily.

"You've earned experience."

"EXP reached a certain level."

"Kudokazuto's LV has gone up from 2 to 3."

Announcement that rings in my head.

That was the most important proof of defeating Trent in front of us.

"- A bullet in a broken castle hammer (pilebanker)?... Well, I guess this is it.

That's what I whine about as I look at the giant tree in front of me that breaks and breaks.

When it comes to full-scale crusades, the very way they fight is actually not so different from other monsters.

'Right to Question' taught me how to defeat Trent, including breaking the trunk with strong shock and slaughter, burning it up with high firepower and no trace, twitching and weakening it with tons of pesticides and herbicides to kill it over time.

There were hands that burned it down with "The Art of Fire," but I don't know how much MP I need, and there are limits to pesticides and herbicides.

So I was allowed to take the surest hand.

With the support of the Momos, I can unleash a "broken castle hammer" in perfect condition.

But the most important thing in the fight against Trent is to make Trent recognize himself as the 'enemy' first and foremost before him.

- If the other person notices, covert skills cease to make sense.

Common weaknesses in covert skills.

Not only me or Mr. Ichinose, but that's no exception, even if it's Trent.

Complete this premise and the rest will be no different than defeating a normal monster.

(Though, it was a bit tight for countless roots to strike like whips...)

The roots of trees attacked from all directions were quite a threat.

But the orbit and power of the attack were fortunately not so different from the slime jellyfish we fought in the morning.

That was a good prep exercise, and I was able to attack Trent.

He then approached close range and fed Kiki's "reflexes," Momo's "shadows," Aka's support and full state of perfection with a broken castle hammer (pilebanker).

(Is Trent's overall strength as good as Slime Jellyfish or Death Knight...)

At that level, I can take it down without a problem now that I've 'evolved'.

(You can use a broken castle hammer (pilebanker) from the beginning, but then you concentrate too much on the 'tree' this time, because the perimeter alert goes away......)

Trent's 'perception inhibition' is powerful.

It quickly becomes unrecognizable if you are not strongly aware of it.

If there were no other monsters around, that would still be fine, but that could be a lifesaver in a situation where those dragons and other monsters are trekking.

It's best to make Trent recognize this one as an 'enemy' first, even if it's been a bit of a battle to crusade Trent while he's around.

"Well, and... apparently you did exactly what 'right to ask' said"

Trent's Ecology taught by The Right to Question.

It means that if Trent the 'parent' dies, Trent the 'child' connected by the root will also disappear at the same time.

So when hunting Trent, "The Right to Question" taught me that it is most efficient to find and defeat "Parents".

"Everywhere is worn out..."

Looking around, there were innumerable 'holes' around.

Monsters die, flesh disappears, and demon stones remain.

This also applies to Trent.

And Trent is far bigger than a normal tree.

If "parent", the tree height is several dozen meters and the thickness of its trunk is not less than three to four meters. Regardless, it doesn't extend to 'parents' but 'kids' Trent is pretty big too.

If such countless giant trees suddenly disappeared, the empty clearance would be considerable.

(Isn't this going to be a ground sink or something if we beat Trent too far?

Such an idea overtakes my mind for a moment.

No... well, should I think about that later?

Now it's better to do something about Trent.

I peered through an empty hole where Trent the 'parent' was to retrieve the Demon Stone. casually. In a light way.

And - I felt nauseous.

"... are you serious"

Countless human bones were hissing at the bottom of the hole.

It would be the people who were attacked and eaten by Trent before they knew it.

Apparently Trent attacks and eats people, but bones don't digest. I didn't even want to know that information.

A demonic stone was sitting in the center of countless human bones emitting an extremely colorful and disastrous light.

(At a time like this, I think it would have been really nice to have an item box...)

You don't have to go in the hole to retrieve the Demon Stone.

I'm a little tempted to stick it in that pile of bones on a boulder.

When the Demon Stone was collected in the item box, it was labeled 'Trent's Demon Stone (Medium)'.

(Even so, I can't believe the level goes up in one fight...)

Is Trent a monster that could earn you a lot of experience?

Or because he was attacking 'man' in large numbers, and for that matter, his experience is being multiplied...?... I felt somewhat like the latter.

"... excuse me. Sleep in peace."

Human bones cannot be stored in item boxes. It's the least we can do because we have to leave it here.

I prayed with my hands against the countless bones in the hole.

"Now, what about this demon stone..."

Staring at the demonic stone in his hand, Kiki emerged from 'Shadow'.

"Kew."

"Hmm? You want some kiki?

"Kiyu."

Kiki nods cocklessly.

Momo doesn't come out of The Shadow. Aka also remains simulated on her clothes.

Probably convinced that Kiki eats.

But should I make sure?

"Momo, Aka, can I feed Kiki this time?

"Wow."

"... (sighs)"

I heard a voice from "Shadow," and my clothes trembled.

Apparently, ok.

"Bye, Kiki."

"Kew."

Placing the Demon Stone at his feet, Kiki begins to eat the Demon Stone with joy.

Hmmm... after seeing some of those human bones, I feel subtle...

No, let's not worry too much about that area. I prayed for you.

"Kiku..."

Kiki finished eating the demon stone and gave it a small loaf.

And I shook my body.

"Hmm?"

What's wrong with it?

Kiki mozzles as she rubs her back to the ground.

And when I got up twirly, I pounded the ground twice with my front leg.

(This trick... you look familiar...)

This is it.

It's the same trick Momo did when he ate Shadow Wolf's demon stone.

What is it?

"Kew."

Kiki snapped happily on my shoulder.

"Kiki, did you possibly learn any new skills?

"Kikyu ♪ Kikyu ♪"

Kiki snorts.

He rubs his face on, and he stares at me with his sparkling eyes.

He said he received great praise.

"Oh well. That's amazing, Kiki. That's great."

"Kyuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

Praising her as she stroked her ears and around her neck, Kiki shook her body with joy.

What the hell skills did you learn?

"... kun"

Then Momo also showed his face from "Shadow".

I'm looking at this one like Momo gave me a stroke.

Do you want to stroke? Jesus, of course.

"Look, Momo, come here too"

"! Wow."

I'll take the momomo all over my body jumping on me well and stroke my body as it is.

Lovely, it'll heal you.

I was in a bit of a mood, but thanks to the Momos I was able to recover.

"Okay, so when you've confirmed Kiki's new skills, why don't you go take down the next Trent?"

"Wow."

"Kew."

"... (sighs)"

Oh, and I've got to swing a ste for getting to the level.

It also earns just the right amount of experience.

Try to hunt Trent as much as you can hunt this past night.
