Ore no Ongaeshi: High Spec Murazukuri

Episode 75: To the Ruins of the Tree Sea

We reached our destination, the ruins of the Tree Sea.

"Is that the ruin... big, Yamato"

"Oh, that's more than I expected."

I answer to the voice of the knight Leenhardt as he dives into the shade of the tree.

At the end of that gaze was an artificial building of stone.

I was getting some information about the ruins from Sildria, the girl on the road.

But Leannhardt is actually stunned.

(The legacy of an ancient super empire? Certainly a civilization distinctly different from this continent......)

While lurking, I observe the ruins.

Ruins exist as if through a deep sea of trees.

The story of Prince Loki says that one day two years ago, suddenly this ruin appeared in a tree sea.

The size is about the size of a little fort, surrounded by walls about its back length.

Externally, it's not a defensive wall that will withstand the battle, it's a security barrier.

(That's not even stone or cement. What... the materials in the walls and buildings...)

The ruins are buildings of materials that are indistinguishable in the long run.

It's a style I've never seen in a town or an imperial capital on this continent.

Furthermore, it was a material I had never even seen with modern Japanese knowledge.

Perhaps only in the days of the ancient empire is it a technology that can be manufactured.

"And yet... the creepier, the quieter"

Lienhardt explores the signs around him as he dives into the shade of a tree.

According to information from the Imperial soldiers who fled from here to the Imperial Capital, there was a lot of danger around the ruins.

Briefly, the report contained the following:

The incident occurred when an investigative team escorting Bales the Great Swordsman arrived at the deepest building of the site.

Three alien spiritual beasts suddenly descend to surround the ruins.

Bales' struggle cut off a slight exit, allowing his soldiers to escape to the Imperial City.

But around the ruins now, I couldn't even feel any signs of contention.

But don't be alarmed, there's a spiritual beast.

"I don't know... Yamato"

"It feels bad to bin...... Dana"

Maiden knight (Valkyrie Knight) Sildria and Player Rack react to my warning.

Two people who have never been relative to a spiritual beast, but what do you feel that you can't see?

This was the case at the Rock Salt Mine, but the appearance and signs of the descending spiritual beast are difficult to detect.

Even I couldn't see until just before. [M]

"It's a waste of time. We're going straight to the front."

Speaking to the other three on guard, I decide to proceed to the site.

I still can't feel the signs or appearance of the spiritual beast.

On the contrary, it is a good idea to go straight from the front.

The four of us proceed vigilantly through the site of the ruins of the Tree Sea.

The most dangerous lead is Ole, and the rear rear is Leanhardt, a knight with a composite armor (composite armor) large shield.

It is a “twisted" formation with a light syldria and rack positioned in the middle.

Only four formations, but each with high physical and combat abilities.

With these four, even a little Knights siege net would be able to break through.

"The little tower ahead... where the Bales are surrounded by spiritual beasts, Yamato."

"I see, at the deepest part of the trail, that tower"

The Imperial Maiden Knight (Valkyrie Knight) Sildria explains the terrain of the ruins.

Having visited here, she guides you on the shortest route through maze-like ruins.

Of course the spiritual beast was not descended at that time, and it is a route that cannot be alarmed.

"I told you beforehand, don't be impotent if the spiritual beast shows up"

Alert the surroundings while I tell the other three final confirmations for the spiritual beast.

I don't know what pattern the spiritual beast has, but its combat ability runs out of words outside.

Kingsguard Knights Lenhardt and Maiden Knights (Valkyrie Knight) Sildria do have combat abilities that as a person they are keta different.

But a common sense comparison as a person does not make sense to a spiritual beast that is a non-standard alien creature such as "curse” or immortality.

"Just in case you fight a spiritual beast, be sure to keep the number two to one."

At the time of the battle, Lenhardt and Sildria were giving instructions to fight in pairs.

Collaborative confirmation before entering the woods sometimes referred to them both as regular knights, and they were quite breathtaking.

That accuracy will increase even more if it is in action, so even these two people will be able to buy time if the Spiritual Beast is united.

"Surely there are three spiritual beasts, aren't there, Dana? What are we gonna do with the other two?

Rack comes to me questioning my instructions.

Because there are only two people left, me and Rack.

"I'll kill the other two. As long as you run around, you'll be all right, won't you? Rack."

"Yes... I've always been good at running around... but with two spiritual beasts by myself, no matter how much Dana"

"Don't worry. I have a plan."

I'll tell Rack I'm okay with the reckless operation.

Because based on the ability of the Spiritual Beast in the Rock Salt Mine to fight, it was a calculation that even "I am now" could deal with both of them at the same time.

Last time I looked at a spiritual beast, I was poorer equipped than I am now.

And most importantly, the difference in experience knowing the existence of the nucleus (core), the weakness of the spiritual beast, is significant.

The other three told me about the nucleus (core) and worked out measures.

So even if three spiritual beasts came out, I figured I'd be fine.

"Of course I've never heard the anecdote that our Imperial Army could have defeated two spiritual beasts by itself, even heroes in the Continental War Journal... Big confidence, Yamato."

"This is neither confidence nor chronic. It's a result of calculations."

I will correct the half-assed Sildrian words.

Indeed, spiritual beasts are terrible beings.

But in order to form the form of an organism, there were limits to how it moved and fought.

There are joints and five senses in spiritual beasts, and there are always blind spots and weaknesses.

Based on my experience in rock salt mines, I have only physically calculated my abilities and the fighting power of spiritual beasts.

Because of that calculation, I made a name for myself to rescue Bales the Great Swordsman.

"Hmm, like scholars, it's hard to talk about Yamato."

"Dana is called the Sage of the North."

"Hmm, well. You have a lot to learn."

Rack is answering Sildria's question.

At first glance, it's a picnic-like mindless conversation, but neither of us has neglected to be alert to our surroundings.

This neighborhood is like boulders.

"Be careful. We're here."

But I'll lead the way, and I'll speak to the three of you in the rear.

We have finally arrived at a place with a small tower of purpose.

Unlike before on the road, the air in the square with the tower was strained.

"What's that!?

Sildria, who was in the middle, suddenly gives a tall voice.

"Bales!"

They found a knight of their own in a square with a tower and shouted.

Ahead of her rush was the figure of the Great Swordsman Bales, who was all wounded and Jen-royal.

"Come on... you're the princess of Sildria... run away from here!

"I don't know what to say, you idiot! Let's get back to my brother."

Running over, Sildria and Barreth are exchanging words somehow.

Apparently, the two of them are familiar with each other and are somehow in a relationship where there are circumstances.

From the conversation between the two, the other members of the investigation team were in the tower and said they were safe so far.

But why haven't the Bales escaped from the scene?

And… the answer to that question will be given shortly afterwards.

"Be careful, you guys"

I feel the sign, and I warn everyone who was there.

If you don't want to die, don't show any gaps from now on.

"I don't know... when, they..."

Reacting to my warning, Knight Lenhardt speaks out in dismay.

Following that, Sildria and Rack also do their gaze around.

The three of them, who should have excellent hazard detection skills, had no idea.

"I see. Is it true that Bales was the bait for the (decoy)? Spiritual beast... five of them too..."

In the square that became the trail, the men who rushed to rescue us were besieged.

by a flock of five spiritual beasts who looked like alien beasts.
