"Phew. You're in a hurry."

Natsuki breathed howlingly as he paid for the blood paste on the sword.

"I didn't think they'd ignore me. Sorry."

Toya speaks out of apology for the perception that it was a bad idea as an avant-garde.

"You can't help it. It's my first enemy."

All of a sudden, you didn't act like that, so I responded lightly, but Hulka shook her head with a serious face.

"No, that's not right. We could all come close, so it wasn't a problem, but suppose we were being asked to escort you? It's the first enemy I've ever met, so they killed me, so I'm sorry."

"Right. I didn't mean to insult you either, but I couldn't handle it."

I guess you're right if you say our assumptions are sweet, like jumping brilliantly with that giant that's about 3 meters and gently jumping over the heads of the Toyas, but it's pretty unexpected.

And in an unstable air situation, he also had the skill to play my spear. It is an enemy that can never be insulted.

"If you're going to deal with multiple opponents, you're more of a threat than an oak leader.... No, even on its own? It's hard to surround yourself for a small, quick body."

"Yes, Slash Oulu was fast just for the simple speed, because that was just going to jump straight"

"Speed. [Weiwatian] Target....... hmm?

I felt something catch in my mouth.

Skills to use magic to increase speed [Wewaten].

Speed... something else seems to have happened... ah.

"Speaking of which, Toya also had the skill of [handsome feet], didn't she? What's the difference between that and [Weiwaten]?

"Oh, I guess. It's only my prediction, but isn't [Weiwaten] agile, [Junfoot] running fast?

Did Toya ever think about that, too, and the answer came right back to my question.

But... hmm?

"Um, I mean, [Wewaten] bounced sideways repeatedly, and [Toshio] walked short distances?

"Oh, nice analogy. Exactly like that"

Hulka summed up Toya's response in the end.

"An auger earlier, you feel like you're both at a high level. I don't know if demons have skills."

"Right. He was fast approaching, and he was jumping."

"And I can't say that it's decent... but you also had a weapon"

"Oh, you're a Broad Sword"

"This is it."

Pick up the Broad Sword where Toya was rolling nearby and slap it with Conconn.

Overall, it's rusty, but considering it was spears made of my attribute steel, isn't the thing itself that bad?

"That wasn't made by Auger, was it?

"Adventurer's Drop... No, you took it, I guess"

"I'm an adventurer who fights augers, so I guess quality is pretty good too"

"Pretty much, though. I don't know if I will use it, but will I take it back and sell it? I have trouble leaving it and becoming the weapon of other demons."

Toya spread her magic bag and threw a broadsword into it, plus a little neck and an auger's body together.

"By the way, how much would an auger cost?

"You're the only Auger with demon stones and skins. I don't think I can even eat meat, but I can't sell it because it's hard and it doesn't taste good. Demon Stone itself sells higher than Oak Leader, but for its overall value, Oak Leader sells meat as well."

Yuki asked with a slightly excited look, but gave Toya a little face in reply.

"Wow, there's no point in crusading."

"It doesn't make any sense, but it's coming closer from the other side, I guess. Given what just happened."

"You're an annoying demon. - [Sneaky Foot] or [Hidden Shape] skills for all, do you want to raise them?

"I see, that's good too"

If everyone's skills improve, they may be attacked from as far away as they are this time.

"I don't deny that in itself, but as far as I'm concerned, I want revenge, so I can shoot you one-on-one."

"Yeah. Well, isn't that good? It's not going up easy anyway, and you'll have another chance to run into it."

"Well, the next time you come out, I'll leave you to Toya, and we'll stay back."

"Whoa! Leave it to me!

When Toya declared so forcefully, Don, slapped his chest.

- Of, but the auger seemed to be a subtle rare monster.

It may be natural considering we haven't met before, but you can't find it if you walk around the area, you can't find it.

Naturally, we would not encounter the Auger again that day, and it would take a few more days of exploration before Toya's rematch.

◇ ◇ ◇

A week after I first killed Auger.

Our exploration area stretched northwest of the town of Raffan to a fairly deep point in the woods.

The rematch with Auger, which finally came true about a few days ago, almost fought Toya alone, but although he struggled slightly, he was able to kill without any particular injury.

Since then, it will have been a harvest to find out that I haven't encountered an auger, but even if I were to encounter two augers at the same time, I would likely be able to shoot them without too many problems.

"Have you had more encounters with the undead lately?

"Oh, that's what Toya thought, too? It's good to be a miscellaneous fish, but it's not good to say it's bad."

As Toya and Yuki have spoken, the proportion of demons encountered around here has been increasing with skeletons and shadow ghosts.

Still, there are more demons than undead, but more at this pace could reverse it.

And the biggest problem is......

"It means zombies might come out."

"Zombies..."

Everyone looks at my words.

Due to the inevitability of carrying out the demolition, some grossly resistant wax has been gained, but I would like to shy away from moving rotting corpses for a bit.

"Nao, is that it? What's with the flag?

"Rumor will shadow you..."

"Ha, no way -"

No, it's too well timed for anything as much as you want!?

A critical part of the enemy range. There's a demonic reaction in two places on the north and west side that I've never encountered before.

"Hmm? What's up, Nao? Why don't you say it because it's good?

"- There's a reaction from a new enemy. And two places."

You guessed something from my expression, and I replied to Toya, who said so with a bitter smile, to sigh.

"All right, let's give Nao the title of Class 2 Flag Architect"

"I'm not happy! Besides, it's Class 2!

"An ungrateful flag is him. By the way, the Harlem protagonist has Class 1"

"Don't make strange titles on your own!

And if I were to finally say it, I wanted the first kind.

Do you do a qualification test or something somewhere?

"Neither of you, don't say anything stupid. Can you afford it at a distance?

"Oh, oh, yeah. I don't think Auger would even notice if it was at the current distance. At last, it wasn't decided to be a zombie, was it?

"But it's two places, right? Nao, so I think one of them is a zombie."

"Yuki, what the hell, that 'cause it's Nao'"

"That's the kind of trust you don't take off?

I sighed at Yuki, shrugging my shoulders and saying that.

"Damn trust, Oi."

"Well, well. So what do those two places look like?

"One is pretty strong. Maybe more than an auger."

In my words, tension runs between the Hulkas.

I guess I just had the impression of being an ogre when it comes to strong demons around here, but had a slight sense of crisis that there were more enemies than that.

"But this one is alone. The other one is more than one...... between 5 and 8? The reaction isn't that strong... but it's more than a skeleton."

"I'm worried about the enemy being strong, but the zombies are probably more than one."

Is this an assumption that there are already zombies? Really?

... No, I think I'm more than likely myself.

I have a skeleton.

"I have to go, hey"

"I'm not asking for anything else, so I think there's a way to avoid it thoroughly..."

"That would be a mismatch with our policy, wouldn't it?"

"Right. I decided to do it to the point where I could."

"If we're going to avoid it here, we're going to spend the rest of our lives hunting for orcs."

I don't like that. You're saying there's no progress...

I don't want to be a famous adventurer, but I want to get to the point where I'm convinced.

"Let's just make sure. If you can't fight, you just have to run away."

We haven't decided yet to be zombies, so if we don't check it out, the next time we get caught by an enemy, we'll also be worried about the type of enemy we have.

Actually, it could have been another demon altogether.

... I don't think so. That's how far the flag stands.

"I wish I could get away with it. Maybe a quick zombie, huh?

"A quick zombie......? You're telling me the zombies are coming after me on an athletic run?

Athlete running with rotten body.

While I'm running, I'm going to be job-changing to Skeleton.

"No, no, that's about as good as it sounds. You might jump like a beast on a four-legged walk, huh?

"... is that a zombie? I know - no, it's far from the zombies I imagine?

Even if Skull Ape does the same thing, it feels "fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-fuh-

"It's more like an alien or something, isn't it? Is it true that zombies?

"No, I don't know. I had simply seen a movie like that. Even zombies like that, if they have 'purification', they can handle it, right?

"I'll do the right thing. But if it was really quick, Toya, good luck."

"Right. Because it needs to be stopped in the range of effects."

"Oh, my God."

Hearing the words of Haruka and Natsuki, Toya smiles.

But in fact, if you're slowly approaching me, you'll also be able to sweep it away with Purificate, but if you're going to make a move like Toya says, it's going to be hard to use Purify, too, unless you stop moving one at a time.

Finally, if Natsuki, who is in charge of the avant-garde with Toya, uses magic, the role of stopping the zombies will be Toya.

- And maybe me, too. Let's hope it's not a quick zombie.

"But it will. deodorant...... no, deodorant? Or don't want something NBC protective clothing, if you run into it too often."

"No, if you were wearing that, you wouldn't be able to work. Bear it."

Regardless of whether you can make it or not, there's no way you can fight in those gobbly clothes.

If it were to be made, it would even be a gas mask.

"I have a good nose, so the smell is strong."

"If you wash your clothes, you can make them."

"So don't pick your nose and fight? No, I don't.... I just have to live with it."

Toya sighed as she gave up.
