Annelie, break it down properly and then the next day.
We were on a big, cut mountain road.
I say this is where I'm most worried about this escort, so I'm slowing down my run and reducing my distance from the carriage.
"We'll be there in two days, and this time it's going to be over with no major problems"
"As I said on the first day, when I said that, something happened... oh? What is that?
"Hmm?"
Sisha pointed forward, so I'll look forward with my face out of the side too.
Then there were trees growing that blocked more than half of this forest road.
The height is likely to be more than 5 m and quite high.
... What's this? Why are trees growing all of a sudden in the middle of the road?
You look like you brought all the trees around you and re-planted them.
The Knolls, who were moving forward, stopped a little further from the tree and the carriage also stopped.
We stop the same way and rendezvous with the carriage.
"The road is blocked, isn't it? What does that mean?
"That's a very unnatural tree. I can't believe it's grand in the middle of the road..."
We're the only ones who can get by the tree, but we can't get through the carriage like this.
And this tree, it's too suspicious.
I checked the map app to see if it might be a demon, but it's not responding.
I don't think anyone bothered to plant trees in the middle of the road...
Or the demon planted it to stop the carriage... whatever harassment it is either way.
As troubled as what is the matter, Mr. Egon also looks up to him.
If it's just a tree, you can magically ask Estelle to retreat it.
But before we do, we'll get confirmation from Mr. Egon, just in case.
I don't care if it's a hassle to do it on my own.
"Mr. Egon, do you have any idea?
"Hmmm...... I've been down this road many times before, but I've never done this before. Things that come to mind… No, wait."
Mr. Egon lifted his face haphazardly after thinking a little as he turned down and put his hand on his chin.
"I've heard stories of tree-like demons in the woods around Quelles"
"That means... that tree that unnaturally blocks the way, is that demon?
"Probably... but this place should still be a long way from Quelles, how could it be like this..."
Looks like that tree was a demon after all.
I can't believe there are demons that don't show up in the map app on my smartphone... why aren't they showing up?
I know it's due to inherent abilities or skills... but it sounds like you shouldn't be too overconfident with the map app.
That and this demon don't seem to be the kind of demon that still appears around here.
Is this the same guy who emerged out of his original place, just like all previous freaks?
In the meantime, we have to decide what to do with this tree first.
"I can't go through like this, what shall I do?
"Hmmm...... give me a minute. I want to discuss it with my husband before I decide."
Mr. Egon walks to Mr. Ardelberg's carriage.
And after opening the door and having a little conversation, I came back.
"I'm sorry, but if you can, I want you to knock me down"
"Okay."
Did Mr. Ardell decide that we'd be okay?
Between these short escort requests, they seem a little trustworthy.
All right, let's get you in the mood and knock you down safely and quickly.
"I hear that tree demons are demons that the adventurers above fight from the C-rank. And magical attacks seem to be ineffective. I don't think you guys have a problem, but be careful."
"Okay. Thank you."
The magic effect is faint... then Estelle's magic is unlikely to clean it up at once.
Or if I leave it to Estelle, this forest area is going to be a sea of fire and this time I'll have the carriage guarded...
"Now, that means we're going to defeat that demon."
"How strong is the demon? Lord Okura, can't you confirm?
"Oh, I'll try now"
I tried to steer the carriage away from the example tree and discuss how to fight it.
Then Knoll says why don't we check the status first.
I thought that was true, and I tried to put the tree in the camera with my smartphone.
But the status app doesn't respond at all.
"No. It doesn't even show up in the map app, so I was hoping maybe..."
"There are demons that your brother's smartphone can't even confirm."
Apparently, that tree demon is really just a tree-like state.
Hmm, I'd like to check my status or something before I fight.
Well, Mr. Egon says he's a C-rank demon, and he knows magic is hard to work with, so is it okay?
"So what do you do? You can't neglect an escort if you say you're going to defeat him."
"Right..."
Based on the information, I decided to decide who was going to defeat that demon.
Of course I can't afford no one to escort the carriage, so one must definitely stay.
Then as I thought earlier, don't let Estelle be the first candidate.
But I'm a little nervous that it's just Estelle... would you like Sisha to turn to the escort, too?
I hear this forest isn't where the strong demons originally are, so Sisha alone should be able to protect it enough.
If Estelle were there, she wouldn't be able to do harm to the carriage unless it was a demon like being in the labyrinth.
Knoll is power is power! It's as aggressive as it sounds, so if you knock it down fast, it's appropriate.
If only Luna was there, she'd throw it from a distance and be able to knock it down right away... what are you doing by now?
You normally sleep. Yeah, but you're a little worried.
"All right, this time Knoll and I are gonna clean it up."
"Huh, are you going to fight the Okura Hall for two in a while!
When I say Knoll and I go, Knoll looks like he's motivated by a gutsy pose.
Meanwhile, Estelle's swelling her cheeks as soon as she hears what I'm saying, and she's a little dissapointed,
No, you're gonna have trouble being reacted to like that.
"Don't be in a bad mood. Estelle needs to stay with Annelie."
"... ok. Sounds like you're resistant to magic, and Knoll's better than I'm going. But, brother, don't be alarmed that you're a C-rank demon, okay?
"Oh, I know. Thank God."
Estelle stopped inflating her cheeks and now she's frowning and staring at me with a worrying look.
Right...... you can't sweeten it because it's a C-rank demon.
"Me, you can't let me work on anything this time. I was just riding a horse, even though I'm a cleric."
"I wouldn't have done anything clerical from time to time..."
Sisha was unfortunately dropping her shoulders in Sisha.
What are you talking about now when you're always doing all the things the priests do?
You're hitting the demons so hard, you're a cleric, it works.
In the meantime, the story came together, leaving Estelle and the others behind. Me and Norr headed to the wooden demon.
"So, what do we do?
"That's right...... It's dangerous to approach all of a sudden, so I'd like to see how things go first."
"Then why don't you lightly attack me with my centipede bra?
"... are you okay?
"Hehe, don't worry. I'll show you the results of the special training!
The only way to attack is to get close, but I don't even know how it's going to work.
So that's why my sentimental bra just came!
Drain a puffy round chunk of silver from the shoulder crystal and let it float in the universe.
"Go, Sentimental Blah!
"Ooh!"
Biscuit sticks his fingers out toward the tree, while the floating centipede bra advances forward.
I saw that and voiced what Knoll expected, I thought......
"... oh? I don't know... it's a subtle speed."
"Ma, not yet! This is where the Sentimental Bra's main office comes from!
The voice, which was loud at first, was getting smaller and smaller, and at the end of the day she was leaning her neck.
Even though I started flying at a running speed, it's overwhelmingly slow compared to how fast Knoll runs.
But that's not the end of it. This is not how my special training works!
When I was in the mood, the round pieces of silver gradually changed into thin, pointed spine-like shapes.
Heh heh, this is the form of attack on the Centipede bra!
I still can't have a little detail of a sword or something like that.
A chunk that turned into a thorn made a trick noise and pierced the tree with the momentum as it was.
Shortly afterwards, the tree starts to shake left and right, knocking off the silver thorns as the branches become like whips.
The centipede bra, slapped by the branches, splashes apart and turns into particles of light.
"Ahhh!? My centipede bra. Huh!
"… it was broken"
Yikes... it said it would break, but it would break that light?
Could it have been my lack of practice and not been able to fully immobilize the shape?
"That's not if you're depressed! It moved out!
"Ma, are you serious!? I'm walking, that tree!
As he looked down and was depressed, Knoll shouted out loud.
When I looked up, the ground under the tree that had grown in the middle of the road was rising and the roots were coming out on the ground.
And the roots are like feet, and the trees are moving towards us.
The trunk didn't even have it earlier, it's creepy with holes like eyes and mouth.
Come on, it's a wooden monster!
And, for now, I might see the status now.
Let's check it out.

Skill Demon Absorption
――――――
As Mr. Egon said, you're resistant to magic.
Does that mean demon absorption sucks magic?
It's highly resistant and even absorbs, what a dislike.
And what wasn't seen on the app was apparently due to your inherent abilities.
So you're saying they disarmed you because you moved out?
If you pull out your skills or something, it's a monster that's not even big or strong.
You're going to be able to hunt without any problems with this.
"Hmm, you're not that strong. About minotaur."
"Then you're going to be able to take it down."
I just got confirmation, and just now, me and Nole are gonna run out towards Trent.
Going nearby, he stretched the branches growing above him over here like tentacles.
Pay that off at the bar. I tried to get close, but I get more and more extra stretches, whether I pay it or not.
After doing that for a while, some of the branches gathered together and pointed their tips like spears, poking at me.
I put up the lid of the pan and took that attack and tried to snap it with the bar as it was... but the moment I took it, the branches fell apart again like tentacles, tangled in my arms through the lid of the pan.
"Whoa, whoa!?
"Ogura Hall!
When I thought they lifted my arms and hung out in the universe, I was now drawn to Trent.
Trent is waiting with a hole as wide as his mouth, and it looks like he's going to throw it in there.
But it's not like I'm going to be eaten like that.
Pull the tentacles tangled in the arms with a bar and attach them to Trent's body, leaving behind the momentum drawn.
If you want to eat so much, I'll feed you plenty... so many times I stabbed the hole in my mouth with a bar.
Trent shakes his body wide to the left and right, but I can't take it to that extent with a snag on it.
The tentacle control was also disturbed, and soon afterwards Knoll rushed over and slashed the trunk of the tree in one swing in two.
Jumping off his body before falling, Trent's body, divided up and down, falls and becomes a particle of light.
"Heh, heh, that's a gorgeous decision!
"Where is……. You're not hurt, are you?
"Oh, I'm fine"
Uh, I'm surprised.
I can't believe I got through and winded up if I thought I'd prevented it.
If this was the type of tentacle wrapping, it would have been a valuable tentacle play release for Heihachi.
... Who gets it?
With that stupid in mind, I went back to the carriage, retrieving a round too the size of Trent's drop item, about under my knees.
"I told you not to be alarmed anymore!
"Shh, I'm sorry..."
When I got back, Estelle hoisted her eyebrows and ran over to me.
Guh, I was cautioned beforehand, but they took my arm to the tentacles...
But that would be like a first-time kill, wouldn't it? I want a little forgiveness.
Such an excuse could not have passed, and he was preached by a pumping and angry ester.
●
By the time I came out onto the plains through the mountain roads, the sky had already begun to darken.
After I left the woods, I hurried to start preparing the camp and managed to get it done before the sun completely went down.
And Annelie is here today, and she looks like she's having fun talking to Estelle.
"So, the moment I cracked it, the odor filled the room and made a scene."
"That was tough. Was that so awesome?
"It's not amazing. I can't believe the guy who broke it had white eyes peeled off and blew bubbles out of his mouth and passed out."
Couscous and I laugh at each other, and Estelle and Annelie talk fun.
Now apparently we're talking about when we cracked the fruit...... what is that fruit?
Do you have more fruit to do than Dorian......
"Ah, it's time to go back. Thanks again today, Estelle!
"Yeah, I had fun too. Let's talk about it again."
Annelie looked at her tent and stood up today saying she was going back.
He then walks toward the tent, looking back on the way and waving his hand over here.
Estelle was also responding to it by waving her hand back.
No, that's kind of a smile to watch.
As Annelie enters the tent, Estelle, who was smiling, looks kind of sorry to have frowned.
"What is it, Estelle? You wanted to talk to Annelie more?
"... no, that's enough. I'm kind of tired today, and I'll let you sleep early."
When I asked, Estelle answered after a few moments.
And then I get up right away and go into a tent for one.
"Hmm, you've never seen Estelle like that before"
"That's right. Maybe it's different to talk to kids the same age after all."
"You seemed to really enjoy it. It was like when me and Luna were talking."
"What are you talking about? Not at all!
Annelie, Estelle, speaking properly, seemed to really enjoy herself.
Unlike Knoll and the others, Estelle didn't go out on her own.
It was just us talking to each other, and maybe a conversation with a girl about the same age is fresh.
If you keep up with Annelie like this, she'll be happy with me.
Now I hope Estelle meets and plays with Annelie from time to time.
... Is that it? If that happens, maybe I'm not the only one who's not properly interacting with people in this world...
Yes, no, that's not true! Even I usually see people easily... people...
