The next day.

Finish breakfast early, tell Livin to open the inn in a forest survey, then head to the rendezvous point.

Less than a few minutes after arrival, the Reese and the others gathered.

"Morning. You kept me waiting. Then let's go."

Nodding at Reese's words, he leaves the gate and heads into the woods. The forest is about an hour's walk away from the gate. Usually the four of us would have chatted, but the number of mouths was low as to whether a heterogeneous molecule named me would make me nervous.

Of course, we are using exploration (search) to the best of our ability, checking the vicinity of the street, and making sure there are no demons.

The Gards don't seem very interested in me, but Leese and Myra seem to be asking for a flicker.

And Myra, lined up beside me, spoke to me.

"Hey, you're younger, so you can call me Toya, right? No?"

When I was visited at the top, I wanted to lag behind, but when I told her I didn't mind, I smiled.

"Good -. 'Cause I thought you were going to get a better look from the top because of the A-rank."

"No, because as an adventurer, you're still new. I went up to this rank due to a lot of things..."

"Hmm, really? I will always be an adventurer...? If it's that high rank, you'll be hired by some nobleman.

Are you hired by nobles...... In a way, I think His Majesty the Emperor has hired me. And Gaulos...

I guess both Shall and Al are mad because they left the imperial mansion on their own...... Natalie wants something sweet.

The laughter creeps up when I think of that look.

"There is a mansion (house) in the Imperial capital, so I wonder if they will hire it in some city..."

"Well, if you like this city, I thought you might want to be an adventurer here, but I can't."

"I just came to this city to rest... sorry. I didn't even think you'd get this kind of request."

When I laugh bitterly, I change the subject to see if you've guessed my feelings.

"Then... next time we go to the Imperial City, show us. 'Cause I'm not gonna tell you to let me stay home because you're gonna have a family."

"I don't have a family. Being in the Mansion is a maid - nothing. The house is small, so I'll introduce you to a nice place instead."

I wouldn't have a problem inviting any number of people to the Imperial Mansion, but I'm only an adventurer now. I don't think I will ever go to Imperial City to see how this member is doing, but you should be careful and deceive me.

"... Something suspicious? You almost said maid, didn't you? Could it be Toya... the son of a nobleman?

Danger...... Myra is probably pretty sharp. Giving information to the detours may be dangerous.

"Then you're not an adventurer by yourself. I don't have a family anymore, and I live in a house on the edge of the remaining capital."

I get a slightly sad look on my face. I hope this makes a mistake......

"... you are. I've heard bad things. Well, you're not counting on us while you're in this city!

A gentle slap on my back and a smiling Myra runs next to Reese.

Then nothing happened and we arrived at the entrance to the forest. The operation meeting begins with a break.

"If I'm on guard, I'll take the lead. Reese and Galt and Toya and Myra follow me."

Yeah, it basically fits in that formation, but it honestly doesn't make sense to me to be able to use exploration (search). But if I say that, I won't speak out because Jill's role is gone.

"I can fight a little, so I'll take my lord. Because we can still fight this."

I take the mace out of dimensional storage. You can take out the buster sword, but this time it's only a healer and amulet. I'm not going to fight unless there's a high-ranking demon out there.

Because I intend to use exploration (search), I am not struck by surprise.

Roads were made to the dungeons, and even information signs were available. Sounds like a dungeon is an essential part of this city's adventurer.

For adventurers who collect materials and crusade daily to earn their daily money, I know full well that if they are banned from entering the woods, it is a matter of death and survival. Those who can go to other cities on escort duty and so on will have no problem, but it seems that the low-ranking adventurers in this city make money in the woods and in the lower levels of the dungeons.

In fact, using exploration (search), demons were also felt wandering in shallow areas of the forest. If this is all you have in a shallow place, there could be more near the dungeon.

... Said it was an investigation on the way to the dungeon, but this could be quite a struggle... Do I have to be serious if I have to......

I'm going to make up my mind and get ready if I don't just spare a minute.

Okay, let's go.

Everyone nods into the woods at Jill's words.

Looks like Jill found something in a few minutes when he walked in and sends a signal by hand.

"... the goblins are swarming. It's such a shallow place..."

Goblins are opponents that even low-ranking adventurers can defeat enough, but they are troublesome opponents when the numbers increase. Besides, I don't know where they attack from in the woods. Of course, I know I already have over thirty goblins. He's noticing us and he's asking how we're doing while he's hiding.

Some of the top species may be because of their dominance.

"... they're already surrounded. Prepare for battle."

Everyone was happy with my words and laid down their weapons.

At the same time a goblin with one stick after another emerges from the grass on both sides.

"He's out! Surround Myra!

Jill holds the dagger in both hands, harnessing his speed and slashing the goblins. Gardo and Reese deal with the goblins that attack the scene without moving to protect Myra.

Myra was also leaving the goblins unleashing wind magic. I'm going to smash Goblin's head off shaking and attacking Mace without losing too.

A few goblins that were nearby were scattered to escape.

"From the beginning, this will make you feel considerate..."

Reese sighs as she returns to her sword and wipes her blood with a cloth.

If you're still a goblin, this member won't have a problem, but there should be stronger demons ahead. I know it's overflowing from the dungeon, so this flood won't subside unless we crusade the main body that's on the bottom floor. That is why anxiety remains in this Member.

I know it's a lot of strength watching combat, but it still fits in at about B-rank. The level would also be about the second half of twenty units.

"We'll keep going and see how it goes."

He nodded at Gard's voice and proceeded vigilantly again. I heard a screaming voice at the end of the battle a few times.

"⁉... That was a scream of people"

"No way in the woods. ⁉ Don't rush."

Increase the speed at once. We've already caught the four of them fighting ahead of us in exploration (search), but there's one demon after another coming from around.

As I was on my way with a quick leg, a man fled to this side from the beginning.

"To, run away! The demons are gathering!!"

"Are you alone ⁉"

The man who had fled to Gardo's inquiry shook his neck to the side.

"The four of us were fighting, but the number of demons grew... leaving the others behind - they ran away..."

You look remorseful, but it would mean that it's your life that matters.

"That's a ⁉ party. Ugh. ⁉ I can't believe you're doing an act of abandonment."

Reese also complains about the man's answer. If one escapes in a battle he kept critical, it's not strange whenever it collapses.

Gardo also grabs the man's chest, but quickly let go.

"You won't have a choice...... I have a family at home! There are also children in my daughter-in-law's belly. There's no way you're gonna die here.

That's all the man left to say and fled towards the forest entrance.

"... what are we going to do? I don't know how many demons come out. Shouldn't we leave here once...?

To Jill's words Leese shakes her neck to the side.

"I might be able to help. I'm on my way!

Myra nodded at Reese's words as well.

"... ok. We'll get out of here as soon as it's dangerous. Is that all right?

"Yeah, Jill...... thanks"

Reese sends me her gaze, but tells me to snort silently.

"Okay, let's go."

We'll go faster and we'll be fighting in the right direction.

I got to the spot in a few minutes.

The three men who were fighting are already full of creativity and it's not strange when they fall. He was bloody all over his body and his arms bent in different directions, yet desperately raised. The defeated oak is rolling all over the place, but we can still see the top species.

"I'm here to help."

Myra unleashes her attack magic, letting her distance herself from the three of them, and there Gardo and Reese go in between to confront the demons.

"Toya needs to recover."

I'll quickly hang the three of them with advanced healing magic and high heels.

"Now we're good. Can you move...?

The men checked and nodded loudly, surprised that their wounds had healed at once.

"Thanks...... thanks"

"I hope you get back to the city safely. Let's get out of here first."

But one orc after another also appeared on the way out. A small number, but not to let us get away with it.

... There is definitely a superior species.

When I thought so, the oaks shifted to the side, and from there, three large orcs emerged.

"... you're a general..."

Oak General equals B-rank in rank. That's the strength of a single party, by contrast.

That's the trinity. Besides, there are dozens of orcs around.

There is also a sense of despair in the Gards.

"... what will you do? The exit route is still small. We just have to break through and get away at once."

"... then we'll be caught up soon. Gardo and Jill take the three of them and run away. Together with Toya..."

"It's..."

Gard couldn't give an answer to Reese's words.

"- I'll stay. Get the hell out of here."

Everyone is silent on my words. Sure, there's one recovery technician left. What are we gonna do? You'd think.

But if anyone else is here, I can't take it seriously.

Honestly, if there were all these demons - it would only be a good experience earner.

Other members may be desperate, but this is a delightful situation for me. Unexpectedly loose cheeks.

"Oh, no...? You're lying..."

Tell Reese not to look at her gaze and run away quickly for Gardo.

"- Okay. Thank you, Towya. Good luck."

"Oh, take care of yourselves. I'll make you proud of your booze later, okay?

"I'll give you as many drinks as you want! So... don't die!

"Of course, come on!

At the same time as my words, I dropped Reese and the others off at once, and then I treated the mace I had to dimensional storage (storage) and took out my weapon.

Buster sword about your height.

Put it over your shoulder and turn your neck instead of stretching.

"And this number... let me not hesitate!

Run out all at once for Oak General. The demons can't follow my fortified body.

With his left hand he runs a series of vacuum bullets (air valets), swinging the buster sword with his right hand, and annihilating the demons nearby.

The demons have no fear. They come at me only on the instructions of the General.

He rushes all at once as he defeats the demons coming at him, snapping the neck of the three generals. The rest of the demons are the U.N. crowd. Ravage the orcs attacking you without thinking.

How much did you wave your sword? In less than half an hour, there were no demons moving around me.

We used exploration (search) to grasp the demons, and we know that there are still demons coming this way.

More than that, there was just... one thing that bothered me.

"- How long have you been hiding there...?

Softly behind the tree in my words - Liese came out.
