I received a letter of appointment from the King, a proposed Nestor elimination. But it's awkward to give it to you right now. From Pioneering Village to Wangdu, if you run and travel without using a transfer, it takes more than a day each way. A day trip would be suspicious.

So today I decided not to show my face to Pioneering Village and hunt the demons around me. We're missing half the bear herd, and there's still got to be tons of demons around.

Transfer away from the pioneering village to see what's happening around it.

"What demons live around here?

The Lunas are in the woods one foot ahead, so you should have some idea. I want to share information.

"Other than bears are...... wolves, goblins, bores, etc. Looks like it's not much different from the woods near Wang Du. However, there are a lot of superior species."

Luna says as she pretends to think. Are the demons that inhabit much the same, even though they are quite far from Wang Du... I just got a few unfamiliar words out there.

"What's the top species?

"It refers to individuals with very similar characteristics but completely different strengths."

"For example, if you do it, you're big or you're leading a herd. It's the same demon, but it's an individual who's grown and grown stronger."

Claire supplements Luna's answer.

Speaking of which, the boss of a bunch of wolves I knocked down one day was supposed to be the same species but it was so big. Oh, you mean that one.

"So what's the difference in color? Like a golden bore."

One day the golden bore, I remember knocking it down pretty hard. Magic plays, skin is hard... I don't think it's the same bore.

"Oh, that's a mutant species. It's not a superior species. However, Adventurer Alliances often put it all together and write 'special individuals'. Because you can't tell until you've encountered it."

"I see... so you weren't used to hearing it"

The word "special individual" sounds familiar. That's what it said on the guild's bulletin board. However, it seemed like a dangerous request with an 'emergency' attached...... Better keep your head down.

"I never saw a monster more dangerous than a golden bore. But overall, it seems a little strong."

"I see... Roger. Better the five of us consolidate and act. Guys, be careful not to get out of it."

It doesn't seem like a good idea to spread it out and bring it into a personal battle, like when you're an ogre or a cyclops.

"Sometimes it's about a bunch of bears. That would be nice."

When Mr. Lily follows me, everyone nods as convinced.

"All right, shall we go then? Leeds, please stand down. I want to aim where the demons are as dense as possible."

"Yes."

Ask Leeds for an enemy as usual and proceed through the woods. Leeds then reacted immediately.

"I was there! Probably a bear!"

Leeds' ears moved piquely and his mouth angle rose slightly. Leeds seems to be burning in revenge. I wonder if it was because we were close to losing last time.

"What's the situation?

"Hardened, I haven't noticed this way. I think I can strike now."

"Then I'll get close and snipe first. If there's a move, I'll give you a signal, so we're all going to storm the herd."

Bear territory in the woods. We're at a disadvantage to bump from the front. Reduce the number with sniping to make it easier to fight.

"Okay. Take care."

I ran out of sight to everyone. Travel to where signs of a bear can be perceived and deploy an anti-material rifle on the appropriate tree.

There are a variety of reactions, large and small, around large reactions. Either massively deduct the weaker ones or put the strongest ones first...... which would be better.

The annihilation is the aim, so I guess we should hunt the weak ones in large quantities... No, if we shoot one shot, we'll find out by sound. You'd better think it's about five shots at best. then......

"Do you want to target the strongest one?"

At the end of the training, the accuracy of the hit has improved remarkably; it is possible to snipe even if it is more than 100 meters away. He fired a bullet at a bear that looked great and generous in the middle of the herd.

Smash your head with one blow. Sometimes it was unintentional and I was able to clamp it down lightly.

The herd of bears looks restless and fluffy. I guess that was the boss. The leader is gone, and the herd is confused.

Now's your chance! Float tons of bullets and shoot as much as you can. Shoot a lot anyway. Look, it's like Skol, right? This is all bullets...

I just shot the prepared bullet, I'll see what's going on. The worn out bear is rolling massively. Too much on track...... the material is ruined.

Besides, all the leaves of the tree fall and the trunks of the tree are worn out. Trees around here would not be usable as building materials. We need tons of trees in Pioneering Village... well, okay. I have to tell you, you won't find out, so you won't let me get mad.

I regained my mind and saw how the bear was, but I think I was able to tail everything but the bear hiding in the shade of the tree. That's a lot easier. Let's signal everyone and raid the remaining bears.

The number of bears has decreased to about a quarter of the peak season. Besides, I don't have a boss, so I'm not working well together. Disadvantaged field, but could easily be defeated for the price.

I'm concerned that Roos looked a little short. I wonder if I've overreacted...... Should I have left you a few more?

We all make a split and pack a beautiful bear and a worn out bear in a magic bag. The assessment will go down again...

Finished collecting the bear. The total number of bears is about eighty combined for hunting in Pioneering Village. Some individuals do not retain some prototypes, so the exact number is not known. I guess I'll have to judge by the number of demon stones that came out.

"This is what a bear would be like. There's more, isn't there?

"Yeah, I'm over there."

Leeds had already stared at the next target. Guided by Leeds, head to the next prey. Moving on for a while, Leeds suddenly stopped.

"Wait. There are people ahead of us."

"In here?

"Yeah, there's about 20 of them."

This is the middle of the woods, and the only place to go further is Pioneering Village. That would mean a dispatched adventurer or a pedestrian. No, no 20 pedestrians?

And if you can think about it, you're a bandit. If you were a bandit, that would be awkward. If the pedestrians are targeted, the supply of supplies to the pioneering village will stop. You should check it out.

"Let's go. Show me."

"Yes."

When I went to the crime scene, there was a little carriage parked. Around it, about twenty people are resting with their hips down.

Three beautiful old men and an adventurous man and woman. Sign perception reactions are 'hostile', but normal reactions of vigilant adventurers and soldiers. I can't judge by this alone.

Let's get a little closer and let's explore. Lurking in the grass and approaching, I heard a talk.

"How long till the village?

An adventurous man is talking to a beautiful old man.

"I think I'll be able to get there by tomorrow's noon bell."

"Well... sorry about the one-way escort"

"No, welcome. They're escorting us on the move. Thank you very much."

Looks like he was a businessman headed to Pioneering Village and an adventurer for that escort. From the content of the story, some of the adventurers will probably remain in Pioneering Village. That means an adventurer sent in my place. If they come to the village, we will be opened up from the pioneering village.

I appreciate that, but that's a little awkward. Once they get to the village, Nestor will be busy. Dealing with pedestrians, explaining and mentoring new adventurers, it's all Nestor's job. I might lose the time to give you a letter of appointment from the king.

Return to everyone and speak up.

"They seem to be headed for the pioneering village. I'm sorry, but it's a reschedule. Eliminate Nestor first"

It's still early, but we'll be heading straight to the village. But I don't use metastases. We hunt them down without leaving any demons near the path they would pass so that they could get to the village smoothly.

On the move, I found a flock of goblins, so I crushed them. It was bigger than anywhere else and everyone was in possession of a weapon, but the intrusion was goblins. It can't be a trick. Crusaded crisply.

Next up is a bunch of Greywolves. A smaller herd than the previously fought Wolf herd, one strong but not difficult. I could crusade without struggle.

No, but you have a lot of flocks... If the village had been attacked, it would have been dangerous. Investigate the perimeter hazards before pioneering.

Once inside the village, he conveniently discovered Nestor. If you look at my face, I'll call you right away.

"Is that it? Did you forget something?

"No, I'm already there. We run fast."

"That's a lot faster...... Did you really go all the way to Wangdu?

Nestor seems to suspect me. Isn't it a little too soon for you yourself? So much so that I can't help but doubt it.

But Simon actually walks (...) early (...) at this speed, so it's not impossible. Mr. Bonanza, too, was unusually quick to run for the figure. Probably the standard speed for A-class veteran adventurers. We're Class A too, so it shouldn't be unnatural.

"Oh, I've been reporting directly to the King"

"What? To the king? Were you filing an application to look at it?

Do you need any formalities to meet the king? It's a hassle. I knew you were right to push without contacting me.

But now saying that prolongs the conversation. I want to be concise, so let's go with Nestor.

"That's the place. We have also reported on the state of development."

"... So what did the king say?

Nestor says in surprise.

"Nothing about pioneering. I explained the situation and asked for more adventurers. Permission granted."

Nestor raised his mouth angle niggling and nodded deeply.

"I see. You mean encouraging enough. Good luck."

Yeah? I'm not sure. The response came back, but did we get to the point? Well, okay. Let's get down to business.

"So there was a meeting where I wanted to entrust Nestor with an important task, what do we do?

"... called a mission?

"He wants you to anticipate Nestor's arms and manage expensive books. I have deposited a letter of appointment from the King. Look at that for details."

It is a job elected by the King himself, communicating the characteristics and accuracy of Nestor. I rephrased it to be good, but not a lie.

"... I see. It's an honor. But I have a job as head here…"

Nestor's face is a little cloudy. I don't know if you're too excited about it. That's troublesome.

"No, that doesn't have to be Nestor. Only Nestor can do his job from the king."

"Only to me..."

Nestor mumbles with a complex look on his face. One more push, I guess.

"Responsible work. It's gonna be tough, but the king says yes."

"But the person in charge here... must look for a replacement"

Whoa! Oh, shit! I totally forgot! You make Nestor quit, so you have to make a replacement. Awkward...... I wasn't thinking about it.

Pretending to remember something and turning a blind eye, Fu and Rudy went into sight. It's already a hassle, so I guess Rudy would be fine. Young but dependable, and I think I have the qualities of a leader.

"You can leave it to Rudy. He'll be fine."

"To Rudy? He's still young..."

Nestor looks unconvinced. Then let's praise Nestor for turning away.

"No, I guess the instruction was good. Young but dependable."

"Really...... ok. Let Rudy handle it."

"Rudy, come here for a second!

I stopped Rudy from trying to walk away unaware of this one and explained the current situation. Then Rudy's face blues.

"Huh? Hey! Wait! I'm such a big actor..."

For Rudy, water in his sleeping ear. Smoking about Nestor, he didn't seem to have thought about becoming a village chief himself. I put my face close to Rudy's ear and whispered.

"Conceive. Nestor's leaving this village. That's what we need to do."

"Ugh... I understand... I pray for your life."

Rudy nodded unacceptably, bowing his head. Symmetrically with Rudy with a dark expression, Nestor's face is somewhere sunny. It's more than anything that makes you happy.

The work I took charge of in this pioneering village is almost complete. Tomorrow at noon, the adventurers will arrive, and at that point I will be open.

Nestor eliminated, and the village chief's role pushed Rudy. It won't be bad. If you go see the King's regrettable face at a later date, you're on a complete mission.
