My Status as an Assassin Obviously Exceeds the Hero's

Episode 41 - In the Woods

Eventually we stayed overnight in the boss room and we finally stood in front of the magic team.

Even at night, they don't know where this magic formation is for going.

There's just no reason to stay in this labyrinth now that I know this labyrinth isn't suitable for sword training.

It would be unconvincing to end up somewhere where I don't know if I want a kiri called eighty layers or not, well, I wouldn't have a choice.

I don't know where we're going, but I'm going anywhere.

The night I was transformed and kitten-sized fell on my shoulder, and Amelia held my hand firmly.

If we get separated, me and the night will know each other's place, but Amelia won't.

I'm confident I'll find out about Amelia wherever I go, but I wouldn't have gone beyond caution.

"Ready?

"It's okay."

'Anytime is good.

From the left there is an exciting bouncing voice, but from the ear there is a tannic voice.

I'm fine with one person, but getting a response at a time like this isn't a bad idea.

"All right, let's go!

We set foot in the blue glowing magic formation.

The magic team grew more radiant and glowed so hard that they couldn't keep their eyes open.

When I close my eyes reflexively, my feet float off the ground and land on the ground somewhere again after a little floating sensation hits me.

This is certainly what happened when this world summoned me.

If there is a difference, when I opened my eyes, it was in the building last time, but did it go out into the woods this time?

"... where am I?

⋯⋯

"Miss Amelia?

Looking around a little and making sure there was only a tree for now, Amelia glanced at me like she suddenly found something.

The night surprisingly calls Amelia's name.

Amelia was uncommonly upset that she didn't always change her expression very much, whether it was poker face or faceless.

My eyes are fixed at one point.

Following its gaze, from the gap between the trees, we saw an incredibly large tree.

Its trees, so huge that its proximity seems crazy, are glowing thinly, clouds in the middle of a trunk that has yet to even leaf out.

I wouldn't be able to fit the whole thing in my sight, even though it would be quite far away.

It's unimaginably big.

How many millions of years old is the tree?

I noticed the tree at night as well, except for a reason I'm sure, but I looked up in the same way.

And groan low.

"Holy Tree... the territory of the Elves?

"Holy tree is that tree?

"Yes. That's the pride of the Elves. Something to protect no matter what it turns into.

Words are backwards, Amelia staring abominably at that tree.

I said something and shut up.

I'm not sure what I wanted to say myself.

But I'm pretty sure I felt something between the sacred tree and Amelia.

And I pushed Amelia down to the ground.

"Ah, man.

"Good response, Lord.

Night raises a swallowing voice.

Silently killing it, watching Amelia blush sideways, I pulled out an arrow that pierced the ground a little further away.

I can see that it is slightly wet and poisoned.

As an assassin, I deciphered everything like the poison drawings that were in the Royal Castle's library, and it's completely in my head, but I didn't know what poison it was.

I'm sure it's a poison made by the Elves themselves.

A little late Amelia notices the poison of the arrow and the poison in my hand.

"That's..."

"It flew right for your throat. You were royal at first, weren't you? Doesn't look that way though.

Amelia looked back at me with her vain eyes and laughed when I told her to eat the arrows in shadow magic because they were dangerous and soothe the air while alerting her around.

"I am a hater. My place is not here.

When I saw that look, my chest ached unevenly.

Even though we've finally got more smiles lately, I feel like we're back when we just met all at once.

And that wouldn't be my fault.

"Well, it doesn't hurt your honor if we fight back, does it?

I laughed niggardly and took the little demon stone out of the place where I punished the dark vessel.

Make sure it weighs and then gently release it in the direction the arrow flew in.

Well, it's my feeling when I say I'm gonna let it go, and it actually flies pretty fast.

Little by little, the sound of the demon stone hitting something and the dull sound of something falling from the top of the tree continued to sound.

I use a combination of sign cover-up and assassination skills to get close to something.

I asked for Amelia at night, so that would be fine.

I took out one of the few dark utensils because of the density of trees and the difficulty of swinging swords.

Sneak up without sound to the elf man who was about to escape a short distance and stick it to his neck muscle.

"Become!?

"Don't move. If you move, your neck will rest forever with your torso.

If you whisper that in the ear of an elf man who twists himself around trying to escape, the movement stops pitting.

In my current specialty, I can't snap my neck across a blade or anything, but I didn't have the ability to judge a man like that because of fear.

Where the man is no longer willing to fight, Amelia appears, who sends his readings at night and is guided a little at night.

The moment I saw Amelia, I felt the man's killing spirit swell, although he didn't make any moves.

Amelia takes the killing spirit directly from the front and looks a little sad.

"… Liam Glaziolas."

"Amelia Rose Quartz. How dare you show up again in front of the sacred tree.

Apparently, I knew him.

When I hit the dark vessel on my throat hard, the man finally got the killer he was pointing at Amelia.

"The Elves, including Kirica, will gather here soon! Your gift to this woman ends here too!!!?

In the meantime, I stunned the man because of the noise.

I won't kill him because he could be a hostage.

In the first place, I could have killed him because I didn't remember to allow him to talk.

I frown at the signs of approaching from quite a distance and at great speed, looking down at night.

"Get big and get us on at night.

"The Lord is a rough cat. … Well, if Miss Amelia is important, there is no other way. This skill, too, is not something that can be used as a wheel.

Even though it was called a bump, at night it was transformed into a size that could pass between the trees and allow the three of them to ride, giving in.

I brutally push a man up my back at night and cross myself.

And I offered my hand to Amelia, who was still thinking of something.

"What are you doing, we're getting away.

"It's impossible to escape the Elves in the woods. I'll get caught one day. Cah!?

To Amelia, who shook her head, I held her up frustrated and forcefully.

Amelia clings to my neck with a cute scream.

Even if I say it's smaller than the size of the original night, it's pretty tall.

You must have been surprised.

It may not be something to think about at a time like this, but because of the lateral embrace, it's not half as intimate.

I mean, it's amazing.

"You're not running away. It's hard to shake a knife here, so we're just moving to a wide area. Amelia, show them around. You know, I can show you the way with myself and this territory, right?

"… but"

"Fine, show me. If I can even get out of a big place, I'll take care of it.

That's what I ordered Amelia to say.

Amelia cried and distorted herself, pointing in the direction of the sacred tree.

"Over there, there is a large square used for Holy Tree-related festivals.

"Night."

'I know.

At night he gets up and pops out like a bullet in the direction Amelia pointed.

That speed is no less than the signs that are following us from behind.

Well, this one is best served by sticking around and supporting the man.

"Lord, we're almost out of here in a big place.

That's what the night said about enough after I ran out, letting my nose snap.
