Aina screamed when I was putting my heart in the gram.

"I'm ready!. Mikage-san, get away from me!

In response to Aina's voice, the lizard leaves the herd of big leg lizards. With agile moves, the Beasts lose their targets and circle their necks. I left in front of Aina so I wouldn't get in the way.

There is only a herd of Grievers ahead. The wand emitted a strong light, and Aina, who carried it, unleashed her magic.

"Ice Storm!

What happened was a cold storm. A locally occurring extreme cold storm swallowed the big leg lizard (red lizard).

The epidermis of the hypothermically exposed big leg lizards freezes, but that's not all. The wind contains a large amount of ice debris, and it defeats the Urban Beast.

"Now, please fold it!

Aina screamed again as she watched the cold chill subside. The big leg lizard (red lizard) was either magically affected or slowed down.

The lizard jumps out without getting lost first, slicing the neck of the big leg lizard (red lizard). It must have made it easier to aim because of the blunt movement of the Urban Beast.

"Please go, Yukina!

"Eh, are you okay?

"Reptile-type eagles, including big leg lizards, are as vulnerable to the cold as wild lizards. I can barely move due to cold air for a while!

Aina is right! No big leg lizards fly in now! And I'll let you know if they're in danger!

Supported by Aina's words and Gram's thoughts (channel), I nodded and entered into a herd of evil beasts with the micage.

"Yukina-sama!

"I'll finish it all in one go!

Thank you!

Then we took down all the big leg lizards that appeared on the scene with little scratch.

--After the battle, Gram gave Eina a compliment.

The immature wizard wants to emphasize firepower, but Eina's judgment is brilliant in that regard. Though somewhat spacious, there was only a limited space for our partners. There was a danger of collapse if I used destructive magic poorly. Aina used the magic of Ice Attributes to give her maximum effect with minimal power, taking full account of her possibilities. No, it's a big deal at that age. "

If this guy talks like that, it's worth it.

"Charisma as former princess. A skill as a wizard that enables the mind to calmly analyze the situation and derive answers even during battle. Well, at this point in time, the overall capability is equivalent to that of a Class 2 mercenary."

You're better than me. You're suddenly being overtaken.

It's just "quite". I don't think it's a real mercenary yet, but at least if it goes right, I can definitely go to the second class. Well, if you don't want to show a cool thing to a woman you're in love with, try your best to raise the ranks. Show me how worthy a man is, mate. "

I'm going to do it without being told.

Remove the good part from the carcass of the ripped big leg lizard (red lizard). Although it was an unexpected encounter, leaving the body unattended is contrary to the mercenary's insistence. The iron rule is to use the next life taken as much as possible.

Nevertheless, there are limits to the amount you can carry. The remaining carcasses were finally put together and burned to ashes with Eina's magic.

Then we turned back the way we came on time.

A deliberately hidden passage in the location of the Summon Magic Squad. An artificial passage extending from there. There are many elements that cannot be ignored, but it is strictly forbidden for mercenaries to lust poorly. There was nothing better than to retreat in the present state of being ill-equipped.

Just in case, when I returned to the space where the magic team was, Eina's magic blocked the entrance to the passage. Although the passage is narrow, it is as large as a big leg lizard (red lizard). To prevent these new beasts from entering our side from the end of the line.

By the time I left the cave with all the aftertreatment, the sun had already begun to tilt.

When we get back to the village, we first report the incident to the village chief. I was no longer worried that Goblin would attack again in the general election, but I told him that another concern had arisen instead.

Asking the village chief about the passage built in the back of the cave seemed entirely unknown to him. On that day I went around listening to all the villagers, but no one knew about the passage.

And at dinner.

The four of us are going to discuss the future again.

"... and Yukina-kun. What are we gonna do about it?"

Questioned by Cunei, I spoke with a choice of words in my head.

"At first, I was thinking about looking into things with a little momentum, but I don't think this is going to work out for us."

It's too much trouble for the end of the sentence to become polite.

A reinvestigation of the cave, triggered by the emergence of the Goblin, is to avoid a situation that could cause significant damage if left unattended.

However, there is another cave connected to the horizontal hole found there. This investigation is definitely beyond my reach.

"If you suck, you could hit a huge mountain about a demonic raid. If you think about the area, it's just weird that I'm the fourth class."

That is the job that should be entrusted to the third and second grades. This is not my scene.

"So, to tell you the truth?

"It's super annoying."

"Oh, honestly."

Cunei smiled bitterly at me for giving me an answer without hesitation, even if she was in trouble. But it's really troublesome, so I can't help it.

"But Yukina-sama is right. At least for the moment, it is a fact that we have too much at our disposal. Even with a full-scale investigation, there are limits to the supplies available in this village. Whatever form it takes, it should be reported to the King's Capital Union once."

"If it's officially issued as a request, we'll get paid."

After Mikage's sober opinion, Eina added a strong word to the inside. The appearance and contents are pure, but the head is not a flower field. It's nice to have a good profit and loss account.

"Nevertheless, it's about the demons. Maybe the country, not the union, will do the research."

"That's fine. I think it's safer to have an expert on research than a guy like us."

Anyway, that's all we have to do.

The reconstruction of the village is nearing its due date. Within a few days, we will be carrying out the evacuation work and bringing it to King's Landing.

--A little event (event) occurred at the end, but we returned safely to King's Landing.
