After that, we moved out of the woods.

Not only physically, but also mentally tired, everyone agreed that 'I want to rest somewhere safe'.

Lie back on the grass outside the woods and breathe in alignment.

"No, you survived safely, but you were a stronger enemy than I thought."

"Right. Fighting your oak leader alone is a little tough, at least in the woods"

Oak reader movement was also restricted, but in one way or another, Natsuki seemed more incapable of moving.

"Nao, you've got quite an injury this time. Fortunately, there were no other injuries."

"Gu! - No, I'm number one, right? Three is for sure, and two more are half dead. Personally, I don't think Toya's very active! I've only dealt with two of them."

"No, that's... undeniable though"

I could have afforded a little more if Toya had taken three, and I could have gotten into covering for Natsuki sooner if even two of them had been killed quickly.

"I guess that made me think a little bit too. With Toya's skill, I feel like I could have killed him a little faster."

"Two at the same time is a neck, after all. Because I'm not used to it."

"Next time in training, it might be a good idea to mock a fight with multiple opponents. I couldn't do it in the inn yard, but I bought land because of it."

"Right."

In previous training, we have fought each other, but Yuki is right, because of location issues, we have not trained one person versus more than one person. But now, with a little leg stretch, there's a land you can use freely. It would be great for training.

"Why did Nao get hurt?

"Uh, the primary cause is that they broke the spear,"

"Speaking of which, you don't have one, do you?

"Shh, excuse me! Because I used a high spear."

Natsuki bows his head and says that, but I panicked and shook my head and denied it.

"No, no, that's not a problem at all. I mean, if Natsuki was using that spear, maybe it wouldn't have been stylish."

Orc opponents don't stab too hard. If you're an oak reader opponent, chances are you didn't do any damage at all.

"Besides, I feel a little bit upset about how I handled it after it broke, too. However, we might as well have some better spears and a replacement weapon. Not just me."

"Right. Maybe I should buy as much stuff as Natsuki uses right now. The replacement weapon can also be carried thanks to the magic bag. I guess I should practice weapons other than bows, too. 'Cause I'm in a little trouble this time."

Hulka, you used your bow to do something almost like a melee to attract one oak.

It was made up because of the speed of movement and the arm of the bow, but it felt pretty dangerous. If there was an avant-garde who could stop the orc at all, he would have made it easy to shoot at the distance, but he would also need to think about when he was approached like this one.

"Natsuki... I wonder if there's anything in particular to say. 'Cause I think I've been trying."

"Is it? After all, I couldn't have inflicted any fatal injuries without your support..."

"You didn't have a good place this time. I think it would be enough to try it from the front, without being able to get around."

Instead, I think I have a lot of nerve for that.

Standing in front of that giant, he attacks with a spear, avoiding the big stick that comes down with great momentum.

You can act calmly in a situation where you can just be skipped for plundering.

What an oak stick I am, and I know how powerful it is because I was flown up to the top of a tree by shaking it up, not shaking it down.

"Speaking of which, Yuki was successfully defeating the Orc attack, wasn't he?

"Oh, yeah. Thanks to [muscle boost] for sure. Normally, even in a losing situation, I could manage. Fortunately, there was no situation where [the iron wall] would be active, but it seems to be quite effective, physical enhancement by magic"

"If I remember too, did I have to fracture it?

"No, I don't know if it's a pocky situation going that far? Isn't that impossible at level one or something?

Right. But let's do our best to remember. Because it hurt pretty bad.

"But it turns out injuries are dangerous. If you say it gamely, it might be expressed in '20% less HP' or something, because if I break one arm like Nao, I get zero offense. If they chase you right after you get hurt and frightened, you could die... Nao, you're alive, aren't you?

"Oh, you're pretty lucky..."

I answer Hulka with a sigh of admiration.

If I wasn't lucky enough to grab a tree branch then, it could have been pretty dangerous, seriously.

"The conclusion is, if we don't train a little more, is it dangerous for us to deal with 10 orcs?

"Wouldn't it be okay if it was just the orcs? I don't think he would have been hurt if it hadn't been for Natsuki to the oak leader."

"Excuse me, I just told you to fight..."

I panicked and spoke to Natsuki, who had fallen on top of me as a shun.

"Oh, no, I was prepared to get hurt myself, and that doesn't mean I'm a bad nut, does it? It's just that 10 of them can handle it."

"Right, if it worked out, we could have done it without getting hurt, couldn't we?

"That's undeniable."

When the spear broke, if it had retracted a moment earlier, and now that I think about it, if I could have successfully used space-time magic, I could have handled it more skillfully.

Because it's my best magic.

"I think Nao's magic of killing an orc with almost a single blow is amazing, but it's not enough annihilation. Can't you do two at the same time, or something?

"Don't be quite impotent!?"

Between the first showy Fire Arrow and blowing Oak's head off, you still had a pretty hard time with this, didn't you?

"Because when you make a magic bag, you use three different magics at the same time, right? Given that, isn't it as easy as using two of the same magic at the same time?

"... if you say so, I would feel that way"

When using the Fire Arrow, imagine the power and velocity to infuse the necessary magic, confirm the target, and fire it to hit there.

If we were to have the same power and speed, there would be no problem with that part. What makes the neck a part of flying and hitting separate targets?

I stand up and mark two between two meters about 10 meters away.

"Mmmm......" Fire Arrow "!

The two activations are ok, the hit is...... subtly sloppy!

"Oh, Nao, wow! I can't believe you made it in one go"

"You're gonna say it. Didn't think you could do it all of a sudden, did you?

Yuki and Toya slap their hands and praise each other honestly.

"Just a little bit, you've misaligned yourself from the mark"

"It takes a little while to activate, and it's a little less powerful? Nao, in the middle of that mark, try typing one in."

"Ooh. Fire Arrow."

The magic activated with as much intent as just now pierces and punches holes exactly where you thought.

Hulka says that far to check the hole and shakes his head compared to the left and right hole.

"As for power, could it be 70% or 80%? I'm pretty sure he's getting weaker."

"Can't you be a little more powerful?

"I can't, but it takes time"

The Fire Arrow, which I'm using now for orcs, is based on the maximum power I can reliably activate in less than three seconds.

Magic speed, power, activation time.

These three are trade-offs, and if you increase the power, the activation time will slow down if you do not extend the activation time. We can raise the bottom by getting used to it, but this is the maximum value we have as it stands.

"And three, by the way?

"That's Toya, saying impotent...." Fire Arrow "!

Activated. But the aim is quite uneven.

I aimed at the first two marks and the hole in the center that I released later, but I didn't get a single exact hit. The closest object is about 20 cm and the most detached object is about 50 cm off.

"About 50% power, too? Is the enemy dense or could it be used for towing purposes?

Halka, who checked the hole again, says it like that, shrugging her shoulders.

Sure, this is a little dangerous to use in battle. If this is in a calm and usable situation, if you use it poorly in a hurry, you could even hit an ally.

"Two bottles, I was wondering if I'd practice to make sure I could guess..."

It would be quite advantageous if it could be used.

If it's about 10 oaks, I can get four by myself.

"Whatever Nao's magic is, we might all need training. Weapons and magic...... magic books, shall we buy them? Because even if you pay for the house, there's a certain amount of storage."

The cash itself hasn't reached 600 gold coins yet, but the oak in the magic bag is more than that. Even if you spend hundreds of thousands of rare pieces, it's not a difficult situation to pay.

"Do I want to buy a weapon, too? These iron bars are sturdy, but they don't work on oaks, and they don't really fit my look, do they?

"No, it doesn't matter what it looks like?

What's good about that? He was attacking the orcs, and I think he fits in with the outing, right?

"No, no, my appearance, I knew it was a dagger or something, don't you think the bandit style fits? Look, it's small."

"I don't deny it, but you're a nutcase in your skills, that position"

"If you buy Nao again, Yuki will be the only one without a decent weapon, so if you want to buy it, I don't think it's a good idea... Dagger, hey"

"Hulka disagrees?

"Disagree, or no one to teach you? Become available from unskilled?

"There it is!

Our weapon skills range from 2 to 4, except Yuki.

Yuki copies from Toya and now he can use [Bar Art] at level 1, but if he wants to use a dagger, he doesn't have someone to copy, and he needs to try and error from 1 or find someone else to tell him.

"But I learned [Bar Art], and it was easy to get around, right? I think it's because there was [swordsmanship], but why not train Yuki to get [swordsmanship] at first and then get [daggership] later?

"Sure, that might be the shortcut. I wish someone could tell me how to fight a dagger."

"As far as I'm concerned, I don't think I need to hold a dagger. I have [muscle boost]. Axes, battlehammers, flails. Isn't that a choice?

"Eh, that's not cute!

"... do you?

I'm not going to claim that axes, hammers, etc. are cute, but can I put a knife in the category of cute? As far as I can imagine, it's more like assassinating out of the darkness.

"Well, Yuki says he wants to, so let me do it. I know a little bit about short cuts, so maybe I can teach you something."

It's a kind of martial arts with a small knife, touchy, but they've taught it to me.

I said I couldn't make a big deal of it because I was putting more effort into the sword, but it was amazing enough from me that I had no edge at all.

"That's nuts, you're so versatile."

"I'm afraid."

Natsuki said so, but the contents of the story are noisy.

"Well, it's only morning in time, who wants to go into the woods again from now on, anyone?

Halka looks around at us, but we all shake our heads.

"Today... okay"

"Right. Nao-kun's weapon is gone."

"I have magic, but you don't have to."

"Am I a little tired, too? Even with [muscle boost], it's good to confront the orcs one-on-one, you're mentally exhausted."

After hearing the opinions of everyone like that, Hulka nods too.

"Well, it's a little early, but why don't we have lunch here today and head back to the city"

It's been a long time since we've been in a situation where we can have lunch in a safe place, and we start a bonfire on the spot and take a breath of tea.

He returned to the city early after an early lunch.
