Different worlds of the last heaven and knights of the fist.

139. Exploration and encounter

I eat meat because I'm hungry.

I get a headache, so I take a break.

Light the fire because it's dark.

I kill him because I hate him.

- Colossiteyal.

If desire arises, it leads directly to action. The appearance of instinct may have been pure as an organism in some ways.

A plain with a good prospect of going anywhere. Far away, you can also see the trees and water sources dotted with bumps. In a pleasant breeze blowing through, the drift shield narrowed his eyes.

Because of the extreme scarcity of terrain that could lurk him, or because fierce carnivores and resentful demons supposedly didn't show up first. In fact, I guess it's safe. You can also see the peasants relaxing down the street.

The damaged farm was on the outside of the wall, surrounded by a fence to which I am sorry. It was more about keeping livestock from escaping than about crime prevention.

He said that the size of the farm grew as he ran it, and as a result of expanding the farmland to haggle, it often sticks out to the outside of the wall in this way.

In the northern direction that the resentful demon in charge of the cow has left, the greenery that swarms is far visible. It seems like something is lurking in the atmosphere...

"That forest, you haven't explored it yet, have you?

"Yes... we haven't even gone that far when we suspect the work of the beast"

"That's wise."

Kelisdell nodded satisfactorily, asking the worker.

Enough opponents to hold a bull in one blow. The mercenaries I hired will not return either. It is easy to imagine what would have happened if the workers had been on their way.

I was just listening to this, and a middle-aged soldier with a beard surface rushes over.

"Lord Kelisdell, a stone thrower was stored in a nearby warehouse. I've checked, maybe I can run it. What will you do?

"Huh. A stone thrower is also a classic for a long time, eh? Hmmm...... it's a hassle to pull it off, and you don't have to. Above all..."

The woman turns her giggly big eyes to her neighbor's shield and smiles thinly.

"There's a kid with a fist that seems to be more reliable than a stone cannon."

Pong and his hand were placed on his shoulder, and the drift guard returned the appropriate gavel, "Ha..." It may be rude, but it seems a little unsettling being stared at by a snake.

"Er... what is it? Stone cannon."

If you ask that, the bearded soldier laughs hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.

"Whoa, you don't know? Finally, it's a cannon that shoots out stones. It's an old generation weapon. The power is high there, but it's clogged and heavy, and it's hard to get around. It's like I'm just pushing a stone to boom, so the bullet speed is slow, and now they barely use it. Shit, I think that's just stronger than your fist, huh?

"Ha..."

"You're counting on me, aren't you? You're the guerrilla soldier from" Fist Strike Luckerz "!

"Oh, thank you."

With such an exchange on his ass, Kelisdell flies instructions to the soldiers.

"Then everyone, the destination is the North Forest. I know it's okay because it's daytime, but just like you act with your encounter with Draughtrow in mind."

"Copy that!"

Soldiers speak up in unison. By the way, the driftshield got knocked out by the missed ride.

Together, they set out for the woods that spread north.

"Er... Carrborough,"

"So, what is it, Lugo?" Mr. "or something like that. Normally, take it easy on me. I'm almost old."

The boy soldier walking next door smiles uncontrollably saying so.

"Bye, Carbolo. We talked about the mercenaries we hired not coming back... no matter how many of them were Draughtrow, would they be wiped out?

"Mm-hmm. Mercenaries are a lot of things. Some of them are very different from Gorotsuki, and some of them are like Rapsols who are called the most powerful monsters of all time. It just seems like the four people hired this time were quite a bunch of them. He said he was going to pay later, so he wouldn't have gotten away with it."

Category B resentment demons, draughtrow.

B-rank is an indicator based on the assumption that regular soldiers will handle at least three of them.

Fighting depends on its occasional circumstances, conditions, and luck.

Though there are four mercenaries of skill, isn't it strange that if you make a mistake, you will be wiped out instantly? That's what the shield decides.

So the soldier who was walking in front of the diagonal of the drift guards looked back.

"Heh, we have Sama, the brave man from 'Dragon Doom' over here. I don't care how many draughts come out, it's easy for you, isn't it? Whatever it is, you've cleared twenty bodies by yourself."

I don't really know his face because he wears a helmet deep in his eyes, but his voice is young. He would be a boy soldier of the same age as a drift shelter or a carboro.

Reflecting on his struggle in college, Lifeguard objectively judges and answers.

"No... five or six bodies are the limit you can deal with at once. That, too, is probably swallowed if you don't reduce the number immediately. Honestly, even the three bodies are tough at the same time. If you can do it, you've definitely reduced the number one-on-one."

In response to the drift protection, the young soldier left only "heh, heh" and turned forward.

What the hell, I think it was an exodus, but Carbolo whispers with pleasure.

"Ha ha, I was persuaded to return the sarcasm with vegetables. You're the only one who can say 'I want to reduce the number one-on-one' to a Drawthrow opponent. Hihihi."

"Ah, oh. You know what?"

The soldier I've been talking to may have been saying in the dark, "You do something when Draughtrow comes out".

But as for drift protection, I thought it was okay.

In front of me, rather than someone becoming like Minette or Mia.

"Come on, you're getting closer."

If I looked up to Kelisdell's voice, who was walking in the lead, a flock of lush trees was looming close.

Kelisdell, who stopped his leg, skips the instructions.

"Shall we split into four groups? Split evenly by force...... Atashi and one person. Ariumi guerrilla and one person. And then there's two pairs of five."

It's not just the one thing the enemy showed up on the farm. It was an assuming division against multiple.

"Ariumi guerrillas. I think you're good enough for one person on the battlefield... just in case. You won't be able to get in touch with the Divine Chant Oracle because you can't use it, and you won't be oblivious to geography. I'll ask someone to accompany me, but you don't mind."

"Ah... yes"

Instead, I'm as careful as I can be on my own. As much as I'd like to ask for it from here.

"All right, Lugo, let's work with me!

"Ah, whoa."

Honestly, I appreciated Carbolo's offer.

Many of the soldiers accompanying them are neglected of exile protection. Even if it's a mission that could put your life in jeopardy, I'm sorry to be alone with someone who doesn't fit.

"Start exploring the neighborhood. Contact Atashi or Niles if you need anything. We'll meet back here in an hour." The mission begins. "

"Copy that!"

Soldiers who speak up at the same time, and also roaring shelter.

The soldiers, by contrast, began their operations quickly.

The depressed trees shed shadows in the woods, and darker darkness surrounded them than they could see from the outside. The scaffolding is not flat either, and the ground is flourishing everywhere with rocks and dirt.

There's a grudge demon lurking right around the corner, and it's not weird when it hits me.

"Nah, Lugo, come on"

Carrborough has spoken in a terribly distracted manner, back to back with drift protection that increases tension.

"Aren't there any cute kids at the academy? Introduce me ~"

"Huh? No, what are you talking about..."

You could get attacked from behind while we're talking this nonsense. It was an unintentionally frightening drift protection,

"He said you don't have to be so uptight. Nearby resentment demons."

"... how do you know?

Reflux protection cannot help but wonder at Carbolo, who affirms in a mild tone that he is "not there". but the answer was simple.

"Now walk while using enemy technique. With my skill, it's inaccurate and narrow, but if the Grievance Demon is nearby, I can tell."

"Oh, oh... I see"

Sometimes I couldn't use it, and Lifeguard tended to lose sight of the existence of the Divine Chant "Oracle".

"Besides, if Draughtrow was here, they'd be nocturnal."

"No... but those guys,"

"Oh, I know. When you're in a state of panic, you're still active during the day, right? Lugo experienced it immediately, didn't he? But there's no way they're around here right now."

I've only seen draught rows moving in the daytime. Even though they said it was nocturnal, it didn't seem convincing enough. But if you speak with general knowledge, I guess Carbolo is right.

"So introduce me to the kid from the academy."

"What, you were still talking about that... I don't know, why the college? Soldiers have girls."

"Oh no, that's right...... hmm?

Carrborough turned away from his face as he couldn't tell, but he opened his eyes wide open to see if he noticed anything there.

"What's up? Is that a grudge demon?

"No. There... there's a cave"

Follow Carrborough's gaze and a pitch-black hole pocketed his mouth at the base of a cliff soaring surrounded by trees.

Liquid protection asks as his fingers clatter.

"A cave... what do we do? You want to come in?

"Wait. Let's check with Mr. Kelisdell."

With that said, Carbolo began spinning Oracle, the divine chant of communications.

"Cave... it's an odd encounter. I found it here, too. Maybe it's connected to you. I'll allow you to explore. Be careful."

After a communication from Carrborough, Kelisdell faces the darkness with his mouth wide open.

"It's dark...... right? From here, I don't see anything."

A female soldier accompanying her peered into the cave, shaking her body just like her voice. A feeble-looking female recruit with glasses on her face, but she's actually weak.

"Don't worry, Atashi will walk in front. Say hello, bonfire."

"Yes, sir"

Answering Kelisdell, the female soldier made a small fireball appear at the end of the cane in his hand.

The shaking fire illuminates the rocky skin around the entrance, but it doesn't reach all the way to the back, and on the contrary, it creates the creeps of the dark "You" cave.

"Wow... that's creepy..."

"Really? I'm excited about what's coming out and I don't hate this vibe though. Well, shall we go?"

Kelisdell narrows her eyes for fun, the opposite of a frightening recruit.

The arrow tip that tried to step into the cave - a fireball lit on the wand, rocked heavily.

"Huh..., the control of the surgery...! Mr. Kelisdell, this cave... looks like it's turning into a hacienda...!

"-Hey."

Kelisdell's tongue, peeking with a chill, runs plush from end to end of lip.

"Duh, what shall we do... You may not be able to use enemies or communications either. It's dangerous..."

"A spiritual hall in this place, right? It's beautiful. Follow me as long as you stay away from the sea lions."

Kelisdell, who sparkled his eyes, stepped into the hole echoing the sound of his shoes.

"Is that... a cave?

Niles, the oldest of the five soldiers, discovered a great hole at the foot of a rocky mountain that burst wide open at the time.

"What do you want to do? Mr. Niles."

A young soldier following behind asks.

Niles is twenty-eight this year. He was a veteran with a large body but high strength and a lot of track record. Other soldiers have placed full confidence in me.

As for the fine judgment, it was also left to Kelisdell.

"Let's see"

Until I got here, I haven't encountered a grudge demon. I didn't even feel any signs. The possibility of lurking in this cave as a "rattle" would be ample.

to Niles, who carefully approached the entrance to the cave,

"Wait! Something from inside..."

Sooner than the female soldier in charge of the enemy had finished, the shadow that had popped up was about to leap.

"Huh!?

Niles stamps a wally tower shield,

"Gu...... oh!

As the gruesome and painful sound echoed, a tremendous shock was transmitted.

Niles' giant blows lightly by something that hit him directly on the shield.

If you hold it back without falling, and raise your face...

"... Again!

Black body hair covering a body about a mile long.

Short, thick legs, thin, long arms. Physiological disgust, ugly appearance...

"Drawthrow......!

Niles grumbled abominably about the monster's name.

As if that were a signal, the four remaining soldiers surround the resentment demon.

The monster, who looked around with a kyorokyoro, largely jumped at one of the soldiers surrounding him. Keep the momentum, slap that black fist.

"Grr!"

The soldier, painstakingly prevented by a shield, was knocked down as he was without killing his power.

This rigid arm is the pinnacle of Draughtrow. Too fast to beat you, and if you take it, you will be beaten down by every defense. When hunting in a group, there is a tendency to prey, but now draughtrow is surrounded by many people. Do you understand that, it was just a heavy blow without any help.

This is Rank B, Drawthrow.

And this is it.

"Bastard!"

"Holy shit!

"Yuen" because at least the three of us are strictly ordered to do so.

Two soldiers approaching to pinch from left to right strike a long sword into Drautlaw's back and belly, respectively. At the same time, activate the Divine Chant "Oracle".

"O Kul Ato, God of Fire!

"Give us strength!

In response, there was an explosion.

Towards a slightly grumpy draughtrow,

"Disappear, beast!"

Niles, who stepped sharply in, roared the ice hammer to the sideburn.

Draughtrow was now slapped to the ground by a blown blow as if to clear the resentment that had just been blown away.

Soldiers arrive quickly to the flashy fallen black grudge demon.

One after the other, the gain was stuck, and the servant draughtrow stopped moving.

"Phew..."

Starting with Niles, the soldiers breathe relief.

"Oh, while..."

The soldier, beaten down by every shield, was scratching his wrist painfully.

Attack the gap where one person has been attacked, at once with all that remains.

This is the soldier's method of warfare against Rank B resentment demons. An indicator that the number of people needed to succeed in this is at least three, and if there are three of them, they will not always succeed, and on the contrary, if the enemy takes the flow, they will probably be wiped out for about five.

This time he didn't even give out an injured man, and it can be said that he was able to crusade the resentment demon with an ideal flow.

Niles took a mocking sigh of sight of the 'Silver Legion Troop' Silvalios' and 'Penta' faces that could win such a monster one-on-one against his opponent, as well as the heterogeneity of the newly appointed boy as a guerrilla.

(As a soldier, even if you want to be more active... to ordinary people, this is the limit.... from that)

Niles stares at the entrance and exit of the cave where the resentment demons have popped up - its darkness.

(... Didn't want to think about it...)

Behind the veterans who seriously narrowed their eyes, the young soldiers were delighted with the success of the scoundrel's crusade.

"All right, all right, we can do it, too!

"It's no big deal!

"But you were still a draughtlow. That's how we did it, and now we're relieved."

So the female soldier in charge of the enemy broke in.

"Please wait. It's crazy, this..."

"What? What?

The complexion of the female soldier was, obviously, blue.

The young soldiers seem oblivious because of the aftermath of victory.
