"I'm a fan of yours..."

In Kay's life, it was a dialogue that she had never been told.

"Ah…… Oh, …… thank you"

Kay, who returned to me, offered his hand and shook it.

There is no such thing as gripping and checking his grip with all his strength, and the gorilla guy laughs like he's "haha..." and just seems happy.

"… sir. This guy's called" Gordon, "but he's pure by the looks of it."

In strange air, Killian put in a follow-up.

"I'm a huge fan of my husband, and even though I'm an old camper, I haven't been able to talk to him since yesterday. I brought him here because I didn't see him."

"…… just for that?

"Yeah, of course, he's also a famous thrower. Hey, Gordon, as a boss. Yeah, but don't show it to your husband."

"Oh, wow."

Gordan, who had a mojo, regains his mind and pulls out a spear on his back. Furthermore, on his right hand side, he had an aid called a spear thrower (Atlattle).

A spear thrower (Atlattle) is a rod-shaped tool that has a crevice to hook the stone protrusion of a spear. The range and power are dramatically increased by converting the force of the arm into propulsion without wasting and striking out the spear.

Setting the spear's stone bump to a scratch, Gordan shook it.

"Huh!

A spear is projected along with a heavy-duty sound completely different from that of a BUGO, and a bow and arrow.

The spear, which drew the parabola loosely, cut the wind at its fruit, its terrible speed, and stood doggedly on the trunk of a distant tree. At the point of landing there was an oval pattern peeled by the bark, which was obvious that it had not thrown appropriately, but had been aimed and hit.

"Wow! That's amazing."

A lot of power, and accuracy. He's a "big fan" of Kay, and despite all the lighting he had, he's also got a high point in letting him hit him instantly.

"How about that, sir?"

"Let's hire. I'd be comfortable if he'd cooperate."

"Oh, I'm so glad, Gordon. I'm never gonna scratch."

"Ha ha... well..."

Happily laughing, Gordan goes to pick up a spear stabbed in a tree with a floating foot, whether it was more speechless than that in the light.

"So, next time, let's do it this way."

"It's my turn!

Then, when Killian looks at the other one, he opens his mouth all the time saying that a handsome man with light dark skin was waiting for him.

"My name is Rodolfo! Watch out for the flow! I'm so delighted to meet Lord Kay, the flourishing Big Bear Killer! I guess so!?

Rodolfo to thank for his playful tricks. Very prestigious. Gordan's influence, or Rodolfo has also asked to shake hands naturally.

"And not as good as you, but I'm good at bows!

Quick to say, Rodolfo pulls an arrow out of a few pieces together from an arrow barrel with his right hand, putting up a composite bow to show off his rapid fire.

Shukaka, and made a pleasant noise in his ear, three arrows poked at the trunk of the tree.

Pretty early work. However…………

"... four bottles, didn't you let go?

Looks like he flew off somewhere.

"Uhm! I think this is better! I decided to make it up to you in numbers because I can't make it up to you!

"I see."

Theory of hitting a few shots. The speed of sequential firing itself is a skill that approaches Kay. I understood that it must be the fruit of Rodolfo's training.

However, I am concerned that the "pull" of the composite bow is a little sweet as a result of the adjustment for continuous shooting. I haven't been able to bring out the full power of the bow.

(- I don't like it, my eyes are going to get tough when I become a colleague)

Kay laughed bitterly when she realized she was like that.

(... Well, no matter how sweet your aim is, you won't be removing the silly big figure of the "Forest Lizard." Is it okay to keep one or two magical arrows?

Hmm, I think.

So far, I have deposited about five "ice arrows" with Mandel, and Kay has the other fifteen. To efficiently cool the giants of the "Forest Lizard", it was necessary to strike multiple arrows from as many directions as possible, but there were no archers at heart.

In that regard, Rodolfo is not bad. As an archer. I think I have a lot of nerve...

…… No?!

Rodolfo leans his neck tightly over how he received Kay's silence.

"Oh no, I'm sorry, I was thinking a little. … If you don't mind, let me touch the bow you're using."

"Huh? Oh, I don't mind. It's not enough to show you!

Rodolfo gives me the bow with a leopard. He doesn't seem to care at all about letting others touch him. Kay is quite nervous when he makes others treat him like a dragon scaler.

(Diversion from the people of the meadows, you mean only a replacement tool)

Kay, who gleefully pulled the composite bow and confirmed the strength of the tension, is convinced, "Well, this is it". Given Rodolfo's pull, is it something like the original 80% power when it comes to fast fire?

"Are you anxious about the power?

Rodolfo seems to have taken Kay's concerns into account.

"- Then why don't you aim here!

Tong, with his fingertips under his own eyes, Rodolfo laughs.

They're going for soft, brittle eyes.

"… it was on my mind too"

And sometime Mandell, who had come nearby, joins the story.

"Kay.... the truth is, can your eyes be weak? Previously, the Great Forest Lizard had an organ that detected heat and could identify the location of the prey without relying on vision, but would it make sense to crush the eyes?"

To Mandel's question, Rodolfo said, "Huh? What, I don't know about that," he just snapped and blushed.

"Of course, it makes sense. There are no creatures who are fine with being shot in the eye, and they will be frightened by pain. But if we hit him, we'll talk."

Kay, with his hands, let him make a circle of about ten centimeters.

"The eyeballs of the" Forest Lizard "are about this size. My eyes aren't that big for the figure. And this is how he does it."

Kay let him shake his head like he was shadowboxing.

"It's hard to get him hit because he moves with his head shaking."

"…… Kay, but is it difficult?

"Oh. While I'm running, I'm not very much, but I can't hit for it. Unlike humans, I can't read how they move next. So I'm preparing a pit so I can blunt the movement a little bit."

"I see, you know what?"

Mandel nodded, clouding his expression.

"This size?... in my arms, even if it stops, it's not necessarily necessary."

Myself, trying to make a circle ten centimetres large with my hands, Mandel with a thought face.

"Hey, I'll hit a few!!

Rodolfo has a tight chest for some reason, but it seemed like he was telling himself.

"So, Lord Kay! Will I be a use!?

"Yeah, let's hire it."

I don't know, I liked the virtue of this prestige. The Kay standard just makes it inferior, and the bow's skill is at its best. I don't feel bad about targeting the "Forest Lizard."

"Thank you! Let me do my best!

Rodolfo once again gives a big bowl of praise with his white teeth glittering and laughing.

"… well, when it comes to eyeballs, if you hit it, you should think about making money. Besides, as long as the distance from the eyeball to the brain is far away, and you don't pierce it deep from the side, it won't be fatal."

Of course I'm going to actively target you as Kay, but it will be hard to let you die instantly like the previous "big bear" did. If a magic arrow stabs you in the eye, it might be a different story.

"Sir, Asi has an idea about that."

and here Killian takes a small black pot out of his hip porch. Cushioned and tightly sealed… some noisy signs.

"…… What is that?

"With Asi's special poison. Come on. Poisonous mushrooms, poisonous toads and poisonous insect juice, mixed with herbs and spices."

It was a noisier substitute than I thought. crystals of Killian Forest knowledge.

"It's a poison that dissolves meat, so it's too dangerous to be used for normal hunting. If the" Forest Lizard "is your opponent, think about it. You can't kill a big fat ass with this poison on a boulder, but it makes you think it's going to be pretty dull."

"Poison……………."

The magic arrow was ready, but the idea fell out.

"... Sir, don't you like poison?

Killian clouds her face at Kay, who looks sinister. These 'tools' have doctrinal assertion creeds by people and can be a source of trouble.

"No, I just don't have very good memories. I think you should use what you can use."

Kay flatters his shoulders.

"Asi is going to apply this to the arrow bullet (bolt), but let him use it too."

"Come on, boy, please don't do this!

Rodolfo is smiling bitterly. But his rapid fire and poison arrows could go quite well together.

"Is my husband easy to use?

"No, I'll stop. Use the poison that way."

"Even if you don't use poison, your husband's strong bow is powerful and easy."

Killian glares at Kay's "Dragon Scale Throughout".

"Speaking of which, that strong bow! Even the" Big Bear "is famous for shooting with one arrow, but can you definitely show me its power!?

Rodolfo asks me for a rough nose too.

…………

Behind it, Gordan, who had recovered his spear and returned, was sparkling his eyes.

"Uh... I'm sorry, if I really use it, the arrow will not work. I want to keep even one bottle warm now."

While I'm sorry I couldn't live up to my expectations, Kay says no. "Dragon Scale Throughout" is powerful enough to break a fine tree if you release an arrow at all costs, but it also crushes the arrow as a price. Shooting a "forest lizard" is not enough, no matter how many arrows you have. You can't waste it for a demonstration.

"Right. That's for sure, that's right!

…………

Convinced Rodolfo, soothing Gordan.

"What can I say instead, do you want to pull it off?

"Whoa!! Are you sure!?

……

Rejoicing Rodolfo, gordan to regain energy.

Kay smiled bitterly and lent him a "dragon scale through". Well, these two wouldn't treat you weird.

"That's lighter than I thought!...... what a tension!?

"……… My fingers are going to cut a thousand."

"Again, we all react the same way.... so did I Kaku."

Mandel nodded, yeah, with his arms around him, to two noisy people.

By the way, Killian also looked interested, but he didn't touch whether he was embarrassed to shake without merit.

"Rodolfo, by the way. I have something I want to give you."

As the "Dragon Scale Through" experience settles, Kay cuts out the story.

"Oh, what is it?

"A magic arrow."

"!? You have such a thing!

"Oh. My friend the magician made it for me. With the power of the Ice Spirit, it has the power to freeze the stabbed area"

Kay explained that the "Forest Lizard" was vulnerable to the cold and that the movement would be dramatically dull if the temperature was lowered. Kay had him try to pull the "Ice Arrow" out of the hips arrow barrel. A special arrow with blue topaz attached to the clasp.

"This is………!

"Magic Arrow............!

"I've never seen you before."

Intriguing trio of Rodolfo, Gordan and Killian.

"Rodolfo, I want you to have him"

"Are you sure!? Me!?

"Yeah. But before I do, I'll show you how to use it."

Kay returned the "ice arrow" to the arrow barrel and pulled out the normal arrow instead.

"This is a normal arrow, but just think of it as a magic arrow. Magic arrows need to be uttered before they can be unleashed."

Gu, and I'll tie the arrow and pull it off.

"This is the state. Just before you release it, say [Aubine]. Doing so awakens the power of the Spirit sealed in the arrow. And if the arrow is stabbed, the magic of the ice will be unleashed."

"I see."

"But once you awaken the power of the Spirit, you can't go back to the arrows anymore. We definitely need to make him hit. And when you release it without uttering a euphemism, it's no different than a normal arrow. Never forget to utter the right word. Okay. Absolutely."

"I see..."

Rodolfo is drawn to Kay's temper.

"In the meantime, I'll give you two bottles. [Rodolfo, I give these two to you]"

"Ah, oh...... ok"

"Declare those two to be your own."

"Huh?... [This magic arrow is mine]"

"Okay. So the ownership shifted to you. When you connect that arrow and utter the word, it acts as a magic arrow."

"Ho ho......!

Rodolfo was looking at the blue jewel embedded in the shiatsu, but eventually it appeared to be an arrow barrel on his hip.

"You remember the euphemism?

"[Aubine] Right?

"That's right. From now on, I'm going to say," Words! If you scream, say [Aubine] back immediately. Forget about it when it's time to talk. "

Even if I feel like I remember, if I get nervous in front of the "Great Forest Lizard," I may not get the euphemism. It's a mystery how long it takes to get here, but I'm going to train you as much as I can.

By the way, I'm doing the same thing to Mandel.

"Ha ha, I'll take care of it. I'm good at remembering a woman's name!

"By the way, [Aubine] is the name of the Ice Spirit"

"Th, That is awesome............!

Rodolfo leaned back a little.

"Sir, can't you use that magic arrow for Asi?

"Killian's score is a crossbow………."

The crossbow ejects a thick, short arrow bullet (bolt). The arrows released by the bow are completely different in shape. If you force it to set, you'll be able to fire, but you won't fly straight. Killian is also a professional, so he immediately understands and gives up "Oh, sure".

"……… Kay, ……… the……………."

And here's where Gordan comes from.

"... any magic spears..."

He envied me.

…… Sorry, you don't have it on the boulder... "

"Is that so…………"

"... as, well, what the hell, Gordon. I'll split Asi's poison for you, too, Magic Spear, but let's make it a poison spear."

"Ooh..."

I put in words that I wasn't sure if Killian was comforting or what, but Gordon still looked sorry.

Kay, who felt somewhat pitied,

"... Let your spear include a prayer for the Spirit of the Wind. I want you to stick your aim in it."

…………

Gordan gave a painfully bright look.

†††

When Kay prayed, Gordon was thrilled because Sieve distracted him (consuming Kay's magic power) and let him wind.

I was screwed up.

He also favoured facades other than Eileen and Mandel, as well as being surprised that the Spirit of the Wind had manifested itself. Because Kay wasn't particularly busy being a magician.

Most importantly, it's a good thing that everyone's morale is raised, so Kay kept his mouth shut without making a futile explanation.

Then he proceeded with civil work while alerting the forest, digging numerous pitfalls. It's just a naive extreme trap with a light lid with a tree branch in a hole deep enough for the child to be completely buried, but it's probably visible in the brains of the "Great Forest Lizard". If I were a smart "big bear," I wouldn't have caught on.

After sundown, I feed my English in the village. Irene prepared herself in case of "alarm" magic, but the "forest lizard" should not have raids at night because it is daytime, so she can rest her body slowly.

And then the next morning...

Kay wakes up in the rented private bedroom to signs of a gawking and noisy outside.

"No way, you're out............!?

"I don't even have time for breakfast, Kay!

Both Eileen and I jump out of the house wearing minimal gear.

But when I went outside, it didn't seem like a "forest lizard" attack.

If you look, there's a carriage parked at the camp at the entrance to the village.

"That's from the Cornwell Chamber of Commerce............!

There was an escort Orlando who I met a few days ago.

"You're arriving faster than I ever imagined!

Eileen whistling più.

"The goats must be loaded too. This helps -"

Kay nodded contentedly, too.

"Kaisa!!!

There was a familiar face on the carrier, his eyes dotted.

"Yay!! Apparently you made it!! For the big hunt of the century!!

The bard is very touched with the harp in one hand.

"- Now I can be a legendary witness, too!

For some reason, Joaquin came aboard the Cornwell Chamber of Commerce carriage.
