Saikyou Mahoushi no Inton Keikaku

◇ ◇ ◇

A line that Colonel Bordeaux's diagrams made me somehow bare from Hydrange Army headquarters to the outside world. They say it's a consideration for bringing in leftovers, albeit association magicians, inside the military.

The colonel himself dropped me off even in the sense of pre-crushing unwanted sparks.

Each of the signal smoke used in the Hydrange Army has been handed over by the Colonel because it was prepared in advance with regard to the equipment.

Huh, and exhaled white breath and Tesfir trembled. Is it a confirmation of temperature, in her white breath. She shrugs her neck and firmly wears a robe.

"Hey, isn't it cold? Or didn't you lose the protective wall?

"You shut up all the time. You're decided because this is a high ground. The wind blows directly. If you go into the outside world in earnest, it gets hot even if it's not."

Ars also looks around to see the situation so that his whole body feels the outside world.

Different groups of forests with brisk dry air and infinite spread in front of them. I couldn't beat this dry season and the creepy leaves seemed to cling to the branches. Greens with little winter wither are spreading on one side.

Fresh air, but the back of my nose is irritated with tung every time I inhale it.

Since the Hydrange military is placed on a high ground, as is the Alpha, it seemed to be naturally filled as far as the relatively distant ones could still see.

The sumptuous ridges are depressing and varied trees. Its magnificent landscape beyond the knowledge of the people gives a strange impression to those who see it by the alien monsters there. If it's a little higher, these inconsistent tall trees should feel like they're laid out without gaps like moss.

Ars' gaze then turns to the sky. It was not an excellent assignment day.

The weather is also susceptible to change, but I can tell by the time the sun starts to rise. It was a cloudy sky that seemed to clog even my mood today.

Above all, so close to the defensive line, the area was unusually quiet.

"Huh, let's go."

A tight facial nod to a casual word returns each.

Three follow Ars as he cuts ahead and drives to the outer realm.

"Loki, I need you to find out."

"Got it. To your destination?

"We'll take the shortest route. If I may, I don't want to welcome the evening. It depends on those guys later. There will be plenty of time..."

"I'm in awe. It's been a little rough for you."

"... well, it happens all the time. I wonder what the rate is, how much nearby."

Even though we have trained Tesfir and Alice, there is still absolutely no way to fight demons. You'll need to think about it and move around it this time.

"You were listening," I confirm to the two of you who are following me over the shoulder.

"Of course. Give top priority to the mission, and intercept me and Alice if possible on the road. Follow instructions without being forced in more than one case."

Unbeaten by the wind, Tesfir lifts her voice, shaking the red ponytail, again mouthing what to do in the event of a demonic encounter, which she has confirmed many times.

Alice, who was listening to it, spinned it word for word clearly to supplement as well.

"But I don't forget to think only according to the situation, do I?"

Nod back and finish your talk. No matter how much you assume with your mouth and try, the outside world bruises and laughs as if you knew from the beginning.

Once this is about the speed of Alus and Loki, we will be able to afford it quite a bit in time. By his judgment, Tesfir and Alice have reached a point where they can shoulder to shoulder with a three-digit level magician. When I first went to extracurricular classes, I guess it's an unimaginable growth - in general.

Would it be faster than using a horse even if the scaffold was at least slightly worse?

I don't know how long that will last either, but this pace should allow the two of us to gain experience to the destination point, even if we pinch a few breaks along the way.

This time Ars is going to watch the fight as a helper, but when it comes to Loki, he tells Tesfir and Alice to report the detection first.

Mages don't last long just putting out their energy to crusade demons. On-site situational determination is a necessary strategy to survive.

Around a few dozen minutes into the dim forest zone, Loki slows down and enters between Tesphere and Alice.

"There's a demonic reaction ahead, number four. Estimated rate [B] appears to be two and two C-rate. The other distance is seven hundred. There are also fifteen reactions to the northeast and thirty-three reactions to the northwest, but this one's pretty far away. I was wondering if it might be so much in terms of rate. Exactly. Even at this distance, it doesn't travel as far. What do you want to do?

Loki shifts her gaze to Ars for a moment and turns to Tesfir and Alice as she hurried.

Based on the information given, Ars, who runs forward, put up three fingers.

"There are three choices you can make here. Focus on the demons up front, change direction and slap one of the left and right around the corner, or just because the bare streets can't be your magic manipulation. Because I will prioritize the mission only…"

"Break right in front of me!

Blocking Ars' words, Tesfir, with an invincible grin, glimpsed AWR through the gap in his elbow.

"Honestly, unless it's a defensive line security, it's about a B-rate, and it's inefficient to let them step on it."

B-rates and the like are demons of rates that are likely to be encountered during a mission. Relatively numerous to this area, rates tend to increase due to predatory behavior.

"The problem is the B-rate. There's no point in breaking through when you trick here..."

"Al, the low rates on the front are packing up the distance a little towards here"

"Did they notice?"

"No, I think it's just a move. Not so fast either."

"Convenient. If it keeps me away from the B-rate. Let's start by hunting from clutterfish as a stone, okay?"

The operation was communicated by Ars and the role was given to the two of them.

"" Roger!

On each side, Tesfir pulled out a knife, and Alice moved the blade tip of the gold spear backwards into a battlefield position.

Running speeds are maintained, and magic is as usual. It is a standby state conscious of a moment of magic manipulation.

You can't even stop one at a time to crusade the miscellaneous fish. I intend to train to the point where I can finish in an instant.

Minimum magic manipulation is the construction of a blade to kill demons, while at the same time it is a necessary technique to avoid being perceived by demons until critical.

"I cut it to the eye for thirty seconds."

Loki's signal accurately indicates the time to encounter, where he cut ten seconds.

"See how you're doing. Don't freak out."

Als, who was running the lead, jumped over the roots of a thriving giant tree in progress, grabbing it straight to the branch and slowing it down.

Tesfir and Alice set up an AWR on the side to further increase speed and slip out.

"Take a good look."

"I'm coming."

The moment they land, jumping over a root that blocks even their sight - the two confirm the demons that have jumped into their sight and narrow their target.

There is no hesitation whatsoever, the two walk in a straight line before the demon realizes it. Luckily it was a relatively flat ground, their speeds go up to the highest at once.

"C rate [Little Monkey Man" Norman "] and conclusive. It is a demon that is considered a unique species of Hydrange."

The demon is supposed to have a unique thin black skin and outer shell. But slightly different from that, this demon had a brown body colour like burnt in the day. While low height like a child, its body is thin and muscular. A small ape man, but his arms had no function for moving branches from branch to branch, and his feet had evolved to run through the ground, Ningro.

As an individual name, I'm not a demon I don't see in any outside world. However, Hydrange's [Little Monkey Man "Norman"] is clearly equipped with something different from other homogeneous species.

That's...

- Huh? It's not a story in the past that demons possess weapons that humans handle... but monkeys make it look pretty vain.

[Little Monkey Man "Norman"] had a slightly shorter shell made of the same material as the demonic shell. Black pigeons like those made of charcoal, if you consider the demonic outer shell structure...... it will have similar performance to AWR.

And if we consider that mankind is still incapable of exercising its natural power of magic, then maybe that * * is something that outweighs any AWR.

I guess it's a weapon that's not supposed to be necessary. Still a manifestation of hostility, Hydrange's [Little Monkey Man "Norman"] says they generate weapons together in the course of evolution.

I guess you deserve enough vigilance if you're supposed to be somewhere different from a common demon.

But if the two of us are on the lookout...

Ahead of Ars and Loki seeing it, [Norman] realizes at last that [Norman] intimidates first as he was played. Two strange continuous sounds shook his throat at at the same time.

Shortly after he turned to Tesfir and Alice, who are coming at that intimidation.

The two flew left and right as they were played against each other, kicking and angling the trunks of the trees on both sides.

Tesfir enters the demon from a diagonal angle, his favorite knife floats slightly from the sheath and spins with his robe hanging. By centrifugal force, the speed of the blade tip emits silver light to such an extent that it appears slight.

A demon wouldn't have been able to take the next action. Whether that was an interception or an evasion, the result should not have changed. Because that foot had been ice pickled, as if it had been integrated with the ground.

The rubbing sound of the knife had stopped when Tesfir landed through the side of [Norman] drawing a semicircle on the ground.

The demon, rounded off from head to hips, stood up with his eyes wide open red and black. The sound of sudden intimidation fades out towards the end of life.

Alice, on the other hand, said.

"I guess it was a bit daunting. Maybe I felt like I had captured the nucleus."

This one was crusading demons at about the same time. The small body is completely amputated and is desperate without even making a sound of intimidation. The slaughter of [Shirlace] left traces of cleavage even to the ground.

It was a tragic sight, but Alice tried to keep it unconscious.

If only the demon nucleus had been crushed, the demon's body seemed to have managed to break it apart because it would collapse into dust. Given her character, I still tend to pull back, but I guess I don't have to worry about that first.

The same was true during extracurricular classes, but Alice can make a solid fold of things to do. Maybe that's because he fought the demon opponent with Ars.

Either way, by the time the two of them wielded their knives to leave the demon behind and their spears hyun, the demon had fallen and the collapse of their bodies had begun.

And some distracted meeting heart laughed at each other.
