Transition to Another World, Landmines Included

About 500 meters.

We went south from where we met Tokuoka and from where people were gone into the woods.

The trees around here are slightly different from the eastern woods, with relatively straight trunks stretched out.

It's not straight, like planted cedars and hinokis, but it's probably of a different kind than the trees in the east woods that had the impression that they were stretching out their branches relatively freely.

However, since the leaves are mostly brown, and their shape is not coniferous, it seems pretty sure they are broad-leaved.

"At times, I'd expect nuts or something. Walnuts, chestnuts."

Yuki running her gaze on the tree or on the ground with a pleasant look.

I look for the ground too, but the only thing that looks nutty is something less than a centimeter dull. I don't see any walnuts or chestnuts.

"It seems good to have..."

"What do you think? Chestnuts and walnuts are excellent as wood and suitable as ingredients for furniture...... By the way, Nao, do you know what chestnuts look like?

"Huh? That shitty guy, right? Hard guy."

I haven't had a chance to buy shelled walnuts, but I know about that.

If you break that one, that one in your knob's mixed nut will come out.

"I'm not mistaken, but it's never because that one lives on a tree branch or rolls on the ground, is it?

"Huh?"

You're not?

When I turned to Hulka in surprise, Yuki and Natsuki as well as Hulka were smiling with a subtle look. If you give Toya a glimpse... Ok, Toya's on this side.

"Walnuts in general are the seed part. Eating is the Jen part of it, isn't it? So the surface of that shell has a fruit peel on it. Depending on the type, the skin may crack and only fall from the contents…"

"Almonds are that type, aren't they? I mean, in nuts, dongles and chestnuts are more of a minority?

I never really cared how the nuts lived, so I somehow thought that one was still alive, but they weren't.

"So how do I look?

"Walnuts are fruits like plums...... you might want to check out the trees. [Help] Yes, and"

"I see!"

It was a blind spot.

Looking for the original tree is easier than looking for the smaller nuts, isn't it?

If you think so and check the trees around you, chestnuts and walnut trees grow everywhere.

However, no nuts have fallen from looking under it. No, if you look closely, the worms are eating and rotting things and trampled igas are falling, there are no nuts at the heart.

"Hey, someone's picking this up."

"You're more of an adventurer than someone, for sure. Perhaps there's a request to collect nuts or something."

"Apart from eating walnuts, they can also be used to take oil and make furniture"

I mean, it's impossible to collect them in the shallows of the woods.

I mean, there are more demons than there are in the East Forest, but as soon as I get in, I don't have a target to hit my enemy range either. That is, to say that you can safely collect. It would also be natural to lose it.

"Recovering nuts isn't the main purpose, but why don't we just go in the back? Toya and Nao are enemies, please."

"Rajah. This is my first place, so be careful."

Preliminary investigation meant that no demon was as strong as that, but it was a second of caution, a lifetime of injury.

We re-tighten our feelings a little loose, line up properly and continue through the woods.

There are only more demons than in the East Forest, and after walking out for a while a demonic reaction was captured in the enemy range, but the crusade is not an end, so I dare not approach it.

Still, when it comes to the approaching goblins, the sawdust is processed.

Yuki and Hulka can also afford to be magical because the fire magic is now available, so the Goblin Demon Stone they have previously left behind has also been recovered by tapping the 'Fire Arrow' into their heads.

Ordinary goblin demon stones don't sell as high, but they still cost everyone about lunch. If you are a hobgoblin or other superior species, you should definitely recover it because it will more than double that.

Well, if you still have to decide your brain out by hand, I'm just hesitating, but if you're Fire Arrow, you can just pierce your head and retrieve the Demon Stone, so you can also lower the hurdle a bit.

But why do some demons only have demonic stones in their heads?

"Steady, why don't you come out other than goblins?

"Yes. Goblin Scouts and other superior species named Goblin Fighters have emerged..."

"You weren't very strong, were you?

Just to say it's a superior species, it's probably stronger than a hobgoblin, but if you poke a steeple with a spear, you usually die, so it's easier than an oak.

Above all, it's weightless, so it's easy to feel confronted.

In the case of an oak, if you get body-attacked, you can't lose your mind because you're seriously injured even if you get shot.

"As for the demons, they have Bruncheater Spider and Slash Oulu, right?

"Yes, but I don't think Branch Eater Spider is much of a threat if we can find him first with an enemy."

This demon, as its name suggests, is a spider of a tree branching nature, but this is not for eating the branches themselves, but for using them as a tool for hunting prey.

First, wrap the adhesive spider thread around the branches and keep the branches easy to break.

If a monkey or something rides in that state, it will fall with the branches broken and stuck to the thread.

So if you die, fine, if you don't die, thread more into the gap where the movement is dull due to the drop damage, and if you can't move, stab a stop with your fangs.

Or, if the prey had a street beneath those processed branches, drop the branches and hit that prey. Later the same as earlier. Add yarn to limit movement and attack.

Since the former has nothing to do with climbing trees, it has almost no effect on people, but the latter can be fed by wooddust and adventurers acting alone in the sea.

But this is not a big threat because if you find an enemy in [Sovereignty] first, or even if you overlook it, if you are traveling a certain distance by more than one person, you can quickly help them out.

If you get out of the way, the Bruncheater Spider itself is not such a strong demon.

However, it is troublesome in terms of forestry because of the nature of damaging tree branches, so if you submit your crusade proof to the Adventurer Guild, you will receive a bounty.

Not a big forehead, but can I hunt it if I find it? I can get as much as I think.

"Slash Oulu isn't strong either, but he's a little nervous."

"A cleavage attack..."

The scary thing about Slash Oulu is that he approaches silently and at once from the low sky and cleaves away.

They seem to have a great cut of the outermost feathers of the wings, and they attack with those feathers without mistake.

I'd still be good enough to get my arm cut off, but if I'm unlucky, I get my carotid artery squeezed out, leading to death.

It doesn't seem sharp enough to cleave thick leather, so we wouldn't have a problem if we weren't targeted in the face and neck either...

"Should I even put it on Neck Guard?

"Even in the carotid artery, I don't think I'm going to die because I have healing magic..."

"If only my people could react instantly."

So you can quickly connect the blood vessels, so the problem is the amount of bleeding.

When it's cut, is it something you can hold down with your hands? Though it is also likely to cause unconsciousness due to anaemia due to rapid blood pressure drop.

"If it's dangerous to meet him, think about it."

"Right. No matter how fast you say it is, you won't travel dozens of meters in a flash."

As long as we can capture it in [Sovereignty], it should be able to deal with it adequately.

If we were to travel at such a speed that we could not deal with it, we would not be able to get wood dust into the woods even with escorts.

◇ ◇ ◇

"He should be about 5 meters ahead..."

We caught a Branch Eater Spider-like reaction in [Sovereign], and we were here to change course a little.

I know the approximate position thanks to my skills, but the tree branches are out of the way and I can't see them from my place. I know I'm here and this is it, so I wouldn't normally be able to find it.

"Natsuki, can you see me?

"Right...... -!"

Natsuki runs his gaze on the tree in my words and spears out quickly.

"This is it."

And on the tip of the drawn spear, about 30 cm of black spider was skewered.

Still working with Picpic, but it's a blow. Again, you might as well say miscellaneous fish as you can find it.

"But it's pretty hard to tell? If I find it, it won't reach my sword."

"Without a spear, magic or a bow... a little hassle"

"It's the kind of ambush, so we can dodge it... don't you think?

Instead of cluttered fish, demon stones are equal to goblins and even have crusade rewards, so you don't have to 'look and hunt' to defeat them without dodging them if you encounter them.

"Nao and Natsuki are in charge of the spider. Greetings!"

"I don't mind... maybe Natsuki will do it all, right?

I'm not the enemy of a bunch of people, and Natsuki's walking ahead, so unless you dare give in, there's no turning for me.

"It doesn't matter. I'm not a struggling enemy."

"That's right, it was a moment. I'll collect the Demon Stone for now, so lend it to me."

"Yes."

When Toya receives the spear from Natsuki, she steps on the spider and pulls out the spear, retrieving the right forefoot and demon stone that will prove her crusade.

"If you come out often, you're going to make money, but not that much, right?

"I guess. Still one."

I've already walked for about an hour, but only found one.

Not too far from our walking route, there's a limit to that, but you can't say there's a lot of them.

Maybe the effect of the city of Lafan hanging the bounty.

Going further back from there, I also encountered Slash Oulu, but this was not a threat either.

The first one flew off the front, silly honestly, so Toya knocked it off easily and knocked it down.

In order to be able to grasp it in [Sovereign], if you warn him in advance, even if he makes a mistake, he says, "I've been snatched! 'I wouldn't be in a situation like this.

However, when it was raided from behind during the fight against Goblin, it was a little cumbersome.

Especially that, because Hulka has cut it off so easily, if not even when he's fighting so critical, there seems to be no problem.

"But you've come a long way, but you can't really replace the woods."

"Demons appear more frequently, but to that extent, right? There's no such thing as a strong demon."

"We walked about two hours, didn't we? I've defeated quite a few demons, so it's not like I can't make money..."

With so many demons defeated, the amount of demon stones sold would exceed 10 gold coins, but it is subtle whether they are efficient or not.

If you break into this area, there will be some goblin-like reactions to the enemy range, so if you think of it as a crusade of demons, not earned money, I guess it's not inefficient......

"For once, does it make sense to level up? There's gonna be a whole bunch of demons out there? You realize the physical enhancement of defeating demons, right?

"That's, hey."

Running a full marathon at world record level is just as tireless.

My physical abilities have improved since I first came here, but clearly not compared to then.

Unlike when I was in the original world, I train every day, but I'm pretty sure some 'strange power' is affecting me, not the rate of increase that I can explain just that.

"But does that even make sense to a weak demon opponent?

"Of course, I think it's better to take down a strong demon, but I don't think there's any point in goblins, either, is there? In the first place, 'Goblins don't give me experience! I don't think we've gotten stronger to the level."

"Is it also possible to dawn on crusades in this forest for a while to increase safety?

"But it's a slaughtered life, isn't it?"

When Hulka says that as he envisions it, Natsuki answers that with a slight bitter smile.

Does Yuki feel lost with the expression that Toya doesn't mind?

As far as I'm concerned, as long as I don't recover the demon stones from the goblins, I feel like there are some... I blow my head off every time, hey. Anyway, if it's to defeat you, after you die. So I'm not feeling a little better.

"... Shall we go home first? We've got a general idea of the forest, including how we can make money, so we can go back and talk about it."

"Right. Why don't you talk to Mr. Diola again?"

Not when you're in trouble, Diola, but it's still best to ask the locals about these things.

We shelved the policy for a moment and turned back out of the woods.
