The Spearmaster and the Black Cat

Eighty-seven stories, Sp to Snake Dragon.

Check the stop appearance in front of [Fortna] 's Adventurer Guild.

It's a burnt brown, unified building of wooden architecture.

I guess the size is about the same as the guild that was in [Holker Bum].

The entrance also pushes in both wooden doors that are likely to be in Western play, doors with marks (dirt) pushed by several adventurers.

As soon as I get in, I can see there's a room next to me that looks like I could have a meeting.

The interior is neither wide nor narrow.

The ceiling has a magical light source of crystals that illuminates brightly within the Adventurer's Guild.

The floors were crowded between the boards, in front of the boards on which the request was pasted, as usual.

The race of adventurers is full of people... are there a few beasts?

I'm going to mix it up with a lot of people and look at the paper that was pasted out of the request.

There's got to be a request to get rid of Snake Dragon... Whoa, quick, look.

Request for Snakedragon Hesp.

It's written on a big parchment that looks fancy.

Sounds like an urgent request. Encourage B or A rank or higher.

Client: Curelet, Temple Cleric Chief, Aquatic God

Request Details: "Emergency Request” A + + Snake Dragon Hesp Expelled.

Entry period: indefinitely until defeated.

Crusade Target: Snakedragon Hesp

Habitat: [Goddess Forest] - Akresis Idol

Reward: Thirty Gold Coins

Crusade Evidence: Snake Dragon Fangs, Snake Dragon Venom, Snake Dragon Eggs. Normally these three, but if Snake Dragon Hesp is defeated, fresh water will overflow from the statue of the temple, so this time it is not particularly necessary.

Precautions: Toxic spit and bite, blow by torso, hit body, tail thorn to beware.

Remarks: Adventurer B and above encouraged. However, as it is an urgent request, I don't care what rank it is. Because of this, Snake Dragon fangs, Snake Dragon venom and Snake Dragon eggs are expensive items to buy.

Grab a piece of wood with the requisition number on it and take it to the reception.

The receptionist is a good pretty girl.

Even so, there are only a few receptionists.

In it, there was a beautiful child.

Bright brown hair with brown eyes.

There's only a queue at this receptionist's.

Mm-hmm. It's not an idol handshake...

But, well... I get it.

Only one hair was stylish, and the white flower embellishment in his ear suited him.

The flowers look great on you.

But I also want to go out of my way to line up.

Or if you look at the faces of the other receptionists...

Old man with skinhead muscular man and thin cheeks, plain woman.

Well, okay, let's be plain kids this time.

Make it that girl. It feels dark...

She's better than a skinhead muscle-man receptionist.

Ignoring the queue of idle receptionists, he walks away suddenly.

I came before the plain receptionist.

"Can I take this request?

Submitted with wood pieces and guild cards with the number of the request.

"Uh..."

Plain child receptionist turns her big eyes on cards, pieces of wood, towards me, and goes... this woman, she goes too far...

"Urgent request, though."

"Yes, sir. You have the title. Awesome."

Oh, dragon exterminators.

"It just so happens. But thanks. So, will you accept this request?

"Yes. One moment, please."

The receptionist brings the usual silver plates with crystal balls.

I just can't hold it the way it is.

This receptionist, is he new?

I finally put the silver plate on the reception desk.

"Put your hands on this crystal."

Copy that.

Put your hands down and the crystal will glow. Received immediately.

The receptionist takes out the card and confirms it by keeping her face full of cards.

I wonder if she is oblique and has bad eyes......

"Done. This is the card."

She bowed to the momentum of hitting her desk with a flickering frown and returned her card.

"Indeed."

"Good luck with your request. This request, there are a lot of dead people out there. Then, the C-rank Clan [Light of Fortna] also appears to be a joint C-rank [Golden Sword King] Clan hunt for Snake Dragon Hesp, and now the clans are assembling in the right reception room."

He explained it politely.

"Okay. I'm going to look."

"Yes, sir"

A plain receptionist with a "yes” tone can be seen there.

Headed to the reception room.

"Lolo, be quiet?

"N"

Black Cat (Lolo) rings short with a small throat.

It looks like sleep time while diving in the headscarf.

Now, as we enter the reception room, we hunt jointly with the clan?

I don't really want to be tied up in action... but it might be good to be disputed by a group of people along the way.

Someone will know the location of the detailed location of Snake Dragon Hesp.

With such convenience in mind, push the handle of the room into it.

Something was going on during the operation meeting.

"We should call more clans"

I sat in an empty chair and attended that meeting.

"What about that? This is not a big city. Even so, they gathered together to make the most of the damage. A dozen individuals are here, too, I guess? Plus, there are three wizards in our [Fortna's Light] who can use healing magic."

"It's just three, isn't it? We [Golden Sword King] also have two cleric combat positions that can use restorative magic. So with a total of five guards, you have to challenge Snake Dragon Hesp."

After the leader talked, a woman stood up to appeal.

"Please wait a moment, don't take it personally in the clan"

"Hmm, what?

"I am a wizard named Lara Dorkamen of personal participation. For once, you can use healing magic."

"Right. What's your rank?

"D, sir."

"Huh, I'm worried about that. But we'll be fine if we get to the rear guard. If you can use any other restorative magic, please raise your hand."

The man in leadership was speaking as he turned his gaze to the other participants.

I get caught too and look around.

Whoever raises his hand - no one.

"Six, well, that's reasonable as a number. When that happens, lightning strike magic becomes the key to weakness"

"If thunderbolt magic, I can use it."

"She is the key to my clan. This is good, right? It's time to pack the operation."

That's what one of the representatives of a different clan talks about.

"... ok. We'll check again, set up an operation, and then we'll head to the Goddess Forest. The avant-garde, please raise your hand here."

There are eight avant-garde participants, including me. Two rear guard bows. One wizard.

[Light of Fortna] has four avant-gardes. Two rear guard bows. Two wizards.

[Golden Sword King] has four avant-gardes. There are two wizards in the rear guard.

and other forces of war.

Because of this, I raised my hand as an avant-garde.

"Mmm, one more, huh? You..."

Looks like it's about me.

"C-rank. Shuya Kagari for personal participation. The basics are spears. I have a lot of confidence in handling it. Some partner demons."

"Ho... nice to meet you"

"Welcome."

Since then, there has been no noticeable objection.

The meeting went well.

There is one wizard who can use lightning strike magic, the weakness of a snake dragon, so the bowman scatters and releases an arrow while striking that lightning strike.

In the meantime, the avant-garde penetrates, dealing damage, and quickly retreats. At that time again, repeat the thunder strike. Let's do the hunt in a pattern like that. It was decided.

Is that convenient?

I thought so but kept quiet.

At the end of the meeting, head with those adventurers to the [Goddess Forest].

We're all walking. There was no one on the horse.

Is it because we're going into the forest zone?

I knew as soon as I entered the [Goddess Forest] that question.

The ground in this forest zone has many uneven terrain.

There will also be many decaying shrubs and the like on the ground that will inhibit the movement of vehicles such as warcraft and horses.

So we were all on foot.

In my case, I can tell the trees and move fast, but this time it's group behavior.

Keep pace with all the adventurers.

Monsters like a bunch of goblins and a legion of human-shaped needles appear in the woods, but adventurers, including me, have no difficulty destroying those monster groups.

Walk on through the Goddess Forest while defeating the monster.

And I saw a blue lake surface from among the trees.

Beautiful lake.

The group of adventurers stops there.

So, a leader adventurer was pointing to a different forest area than the lake.

The purpose is there, and I'm giving you instructions.

When I looked at the indicated location, I did see a statue of a god.

The statue is intertwined with serpents.

I see. Is that Snake Dragon Hesp?

It's definitely a big snake. I can see the dragon coming on.

The statue of the god is a giant statue ten meters long and a few meters wide.

He wrapped his long, thick torso around the statue to eat it.

It's strange because it also looks like an object of a divine statue when you look at a winding snake dragon from here.

Around the statue there are many objects that can be seen as eggs of a serpentine dragon.

"Now, let's act as we originally did."

"Let's do it."

"Ouch."

"" Ooh. ""

The manoeuvre's tantrum began with the thunderbolt magic of a woman wizard wearing a purple robe.

Multi-stage lightning strike hits around the back of Snake Dragon Hesp.

The snake dragon wandered more and fell off the statue and flipped over.

Apparently, it's really a snake dragon weakness.

Snake dragons are paralyzed and cramped.

The sight is hailed by the adventurers, and the magic of fireballs and flaming arrows is unleashed one after the other. The bow and arrow were also shot off.

The fireball hits the Snake Dragon scale directly and explodes, but it's almost intact.

But the bow and arrow pierce the scale. I'm poking around.

Seems pretty easy.

Soon afterwards, avant-garde warriors penetrate.

But do you attack from the torso, I think you usually aim for the head...

Make the Demon Spear Wand appear in your hands in doubt.

The black cat (Lolo) also went down from her shoulder to the ground, making her swollen and much larger.

I'm a private participant. I'm free to do this.

When it comes to snakes, it would be heads. Crush your head first.

"We go for our heads while we tour. Follow me."

"Wha."

Take the Black Cat (Rollo) away from the avant-garde group.

The torso of the serpentine dragon is wrapped in blue scales and thick and long.

The avant-gardes were launching an attack on its torso.

One large warrior clashes the hammer vigorously and shakes the torso of a thick serpentine dragon.

Wow, that sounds like a heavy blow.

The scales are destroyed by a heavy blow that seems to be skill-based, with a thousand slices of blue meat from inside and blood flying around.

This was followed by an attack from the other avant-gardes.

Destroy the scales with a hammer, cleave the flesh with a sword, and poke inside with a spear.

He was hammering in a spear that was pinched in the meat and could no longer be pulled out, causing the iron spear to indulge deeply in the wound.

At that time - at the tip of the long torso of the serpentine dragon, a loud roar bursts from a direction in which the head is located.

Seems to have worked pretty well. It also sounds like a scream of pain.

Hearing that roar, the avant-garde group was on track, not away from the torso, adding an attack of pursuit.

Isn't that the right time for thunderbolt magic?

What the hell was an operational meeting?

That seemed like a bragging conversation between clans after all...... wasting time.

I go for Snake Dragon Hesp's head without saying anything to them at the avant-garde.

Did Snake Dragon get angry or was twisting his big torso for a quick recoil?

Uh-huh - a wave of dong-dong-sounding torso swallowed up the avant-gardes.

Most of the avant-garde is crushed to death with an underlay so that it is swallowed into a large torso.

There are a few survivors, but the magic of following is also a sparrow tear.

I can hear screams coming from behind me watching it.

"The operation is aborted, and we will begin the retreat!

Ooh. What happened to the magical pursuit of thunderbolts?

You can shoot me because you can involve the avant-garde, but you're withdrawing too soon.

What am I supposed to say, ignoring the operation from the start?

"Lolo, I don't follow those instructions - we'll do it alone."

"Nah."

Black Cat (Lolo) replied properly, even as he chased the side.

Run for Hesp's head.

Snake Dragon Hesp was contracting his torso, stretching and inflating his tail.

It produces countless long thorns from the tip of its swollen tail, launching one mortar after another high in the air.

That's dozens and hundreds of thick pricks.

A large needle had poured like rain from the heads of those who were retreating, and the wizards had been stabbed and skewered one after the other.

Is the adventurer using the bow agile, or cleverly avoiding it and surviving the attack of a large needle, but showing his back and escaping?

I saw Snake Dragon's head there.

Vertically cracked pairs of red-purple eyes.

Both sides of the head are as uplifting as statue ears.

It could also be said that the head of the cobra was widened laterally and massively.

Skip your gaze to the black cat (lolo) running beside you (eye contact).

The eye-cat (Lolo) leaves the side without saying anything.

Standing in front of the Snake Dragon,

"Koiyaa, Snake Dragon Hesp!! I'll take you down!!

Make a deliberate yell.

I don't know if he was caught by his voice, but Snake Dragon Hesp has responded by opening his mouth with a unique snake-like sound.

He has two long fangs in his mouth.

From the tip of the fangs, toxic liquids were overflowing and dripping.

Vigilant MAX status, also for the purpose seen.

"Vashhhhhhhhhh"

I still came, and the poison spit flew along with the screaming sound -.

Quickly avoid the sole (venom spit) with the Demon Legs.

From the point where I avoided it, the venom hit the ground, it was shuffling, and there was a heterogeneous unpleasant sound and poisonous purple smoke that caused chemical changes due to acid.

There is also a strong sulfur odor, which I know for sure is “poison”.

Stopping the movement at all, he spits poison again.

Avoid impending poisonous spit attacks by using demonic legs and using stepwork to perform repetitive lateral flights in a rhythm.

Snake Dragon keeps avoiding it quickly. I keep spitting poison when I shake my head desperately towards me.

I keep avoiding poison spit - but it stinks.

Also, I spit poison - avoid it.

Smells like my throat is about to burn.

At that time Snake Dragon's movements stopped, he stopped spitting poison.

Whoa, did you do it?

Snake Dragon Hesp had a black cat (Rollo) on his head.

It bites directly into Hesp's head and pierces the tentacle bone sword of the movement. The Snake Dragon appears to be suddenly attacked and confused.

"Lolo, Nice"

Snake Dragon Hesp's consciousness was entirely “just mine”.

- Scream forward while avoiding the rotten ground, which is producing odors due to the venom.

Hesp is desperately moving his red-purple eyes up, down, left, and right, twisting his torso.

The black cat (Rollo) eats the claws of the limbs into the scaly skin and bites them to eat the meat of the head while clinging to the head of the swinging snake dragon.

There was good momentum and blue and purple blood erupting from the head of the wounded snake dragon. I don't think he's eating because of that scratch, I guess he's actually eating that one.

Because of that, Snake Dragon completely loses attention to me.

- Here's your chance.

Running to Snake Dragon Hesp, he strapped his left hand and ejected.

The chain proceeded vigorously through the universe and pierced Sp's head to the Cobra-like Snake Dragon.

You can see the tip of the chain (pure drop) penetrating the inside by tearing the flesh and bones of the Snake Dragon Hesp from the sensation immediately transmitted from the Factor of Chain (tattoo mark) on the left wrist.

I kept moving the chain to erode Hesp's head.

Sometimes you destroy your brain with chains like this, but directly, beat it!

I stare, I hold the spear in my right hand, and the chain in my left hand.

I carried my body straight to Snake Dragon's head at once.

The head of a giant snake dragon occupies the sight.

Accommodates a demon spear that grips the momentum that hits its powerful head in a single point of its right hand and activates.

A red spear spiral of demon spear wrapped around the darkness pierced Sp's eyeball to the Snake Dragon.

"Gah."

Screaming snake dragon.

There the tentacle bone sword of the black cat (Lolo) pierces the back of the snake dragon's head.

Snake dragons blunted their movements when they trembled like they were paralyzed from torso to torso.

I landed diagonally on Snake Dragon's head with both legs watching it.

Treat the chain like a lapeling with the instructions of getting off the building and make a slight leap.

Pull through the demon spear stabbed in the eyeball at that time.

The red spear had a bloody giant eyeball stabbed, but I didn't mind, sticking out the demon spear with the momentum to sew the eyeball towards the snake dragon's eyebrow.

A demon spear pierced between the eyebrows of a snake dragon.

Crushed eyeballs make you feel like some kind of work of art (modern art).

But... not yet. Leap again to support the chain.

Go on, pull out the demon spear.

Dark-wrapped Red Spear (Demon Spear) Spiral's intense thrust pushes through the orbit as it destroys the remaining brocade colored eyeballs.

And after many seconds of commas, a breaking spear grad pulse emerges.

With the momentum to overtake the protruding demon spear, the breaking spear Gladpulse (the giant lance of darkness) screams in a spiral as it roars.

It breaks into the head of a snake dragon like a soft tofu.

It's a darkness Lance that once made wind holes in even the Demon Dragon King.

Fly Snake Dragon's head and flesh to the perimeter while generating a strange sound like being caught in a vicious mixer drill.

The spiral rotation of the breaking spear grad pulse did not fade, and it penetrated into the rear space as it swirled around the top of the skull of the serpentine dragon Hesp.

As part of his brain drips from a cross section of his head pierced in an elliptical shape, Snake Dragon Hesp stops the gawking motion and leans down to the side.

The Dark Lance, which pierced his head by more than half, broke the spear. The Gladpulse ran through the other side (the universe) before disappearing naturally.

Oops!

Skills crossed. Quadruple punches went well.

I'm just letting it go in a row, and I have a subtle time lag.

The black cat (Rollo) is sticking his tentacle bone sword toward the long torso of the snake dragon that is still cramped, but the cramps of the snake dragon hesp gradually disappear and the movement stops.

Totally dead.

Hurry to the head of Snake Dragon Hesp.

Do you want to recover the venom as well as this fang?

Spreading the faucet of the carcass, the venom is dripping from the tip of the fangs......

Even if we collect this poison, it's going to melt if it's a regular bottle.

How do I... dismantle and find out.

Cut the head into the throat by slicing it into a circle.

Examining the toxic glands that follow from the small holes in the tip of the fangs leads to the fundamentals that lie ahead... oh, I knew it. Found the poison bag.

It was enclosed between the bones in the back of his throat. You can collect this directly.

The poison bag contains a spooky venom like a mixture of plenty of purple and green.

Successfully detach the poison bag from the fangs by using up the ancient dragon dagger in the root.

... took out the poison bag to avoid carefully zeroing, tied the tip of the bag, and melted its tied tip with a red axe to cover it.

Snake dragon fangs are pulled from the ground up, and fangs firmly embedded in the bones are cut with ancient dragon daggers.

I finished collecting the whole thing.

Return while retrieving Snake Dragon eggs at the end?

Track the torso from the head of the Snake Dragon and collect the Snake Dragon eggs in the item box on the way back.

And then we went back to the scene where the avant-gardes were fighting.

The surviving adventurers... only two.

They are sitting on the ground.

"Whoa? Was there a survivor..."

"The Snake Dragon suddenly stopped moving, you know the wax?

When the big guys and the normal size guys looked at me, they asked me that.

"Oh, I knocked him down"

And speak honestly.

In my words, a big man with a scratch on his forehead startles and opens his eyes.

"Hey, what?

"You knocked him down... his first name is certain..."

Oh, this guy, he was the leader at the conference.

They don't remember my name.

In the meantime, shall I name it?

"It's a C-ranked shuya. Besides, the guards abandoned the avant-garde and ran away."

"Ah... the crowd of the gathering. My name is Saj Greffi. He was a private participant in Rank C. I don't even know what it's like to be the ones who ran away. We're on track and ignoring the operation. He ate the counterattack and blew it up all at once. However, the escaped men were eventually killed in a tail attack, so I can't say anything..."

That big needle attack like rain?

"Indeed."

"But don't do Shuya to defeat the Snake Dragon, I do remember him telling me that he was confident in the spear. It's an honor to meet with such an amazing adventurer."

When Saji compliments me, the man next door also opens his mouth.

"Right. I'll give you a name, too. C-Rank [Golden Sword King] Clan Leader Günt Elibzen. Me and Saji were saved by you. Thank you, and as an adventurer in the future, thank you."

Someone who was a leader in the conference.

I guess that's pretty strong because you survived.

"I'm glad I saved you. My pleasure."

"Well, I'll let you disperse first. It was a huge sacrifice, but the request was an achievement."

Saji stood up, picking up his favorite weapon, he leaves with his leg slightly tucked away when he put it on his shoulder.

"Roger... I'll retrieve my baggage and cards from my buddy's carcass"

The leader of the [Golden Sword King] was sad to see the body of his fellow man.

Something's awkward...

There's still something to do.

"Then I'll collect the eggs around here, too, and then I'll go home. Bye."

Take the time to recover the eggs that were within sight.

By the time I finished collecting it and tried to go home, the evening had passed and it was already about to be night.

Use the trees that grow in the [Goddess Forest] on dark nights but return.

Use the and to convey the trees and move.

As such, I was able to quickly return to the Alliance.

When I enter the guild, my gaze gathers at once.

Rumors of Snake Dragon Hesp exorcism are already spreading.

Rumor is I'll walk alone... it's a pain in the ass, but I don't mind.

I'm not staying here long.

Stretch your chest and walk to the reception.

Tooth, venom and eggs, evidence of defeating Adventurer Card and Snake Dragon Hesp to the plain receptionist who was first in charge, were removed from the item box and placed exactly on the reception deck.

"Bi, I'm surprised. You succeeded. Congratulations on accomplishing your urgent request. I'm going to settle it now."

"Say hello."

Waiting, behind the affairs, a beautiful receptionist was distorting the edge of her mouth about a tightly working plain cock receptionist.

Scary, white flowers in your ears look shriveled for a moment.

You noticed strangely that I was watching, and the beautiful receptionist who was staring at me immediately changed her expression and gave me a smile back.

Uh-huh, I might have seen a relationship at this workplace.

But it's not like I do anything.

Plain receptionist, Gumball. And whine with shade and heart.

If I had done that, the receptionist would have come back.

"It's all yours. It's forty total gold coins. Cards, please."

That's a different design than the gold coin shape I've always seen and engraved.

Ah, because the country is different...

Do you want to hear about the area?

One piece of gold out of the item box,

"This gold coin works here? I wonder if the value will change depending on the country..."

"That gold coin is [Oseberia] gold coin, Osale gold coin, right? It's also in circulation here. It is the same value as the Hess gold coins in circulation in this [Hess Riphart], so the value remains unchanged. Hess gold coins should be of equal value within [the Kingdom of Oseberia]."

Well, if it's the same value, there's no need for exchange or anything like that.

They distribute it even if the country is quite far from it across the desert.

But why is the value of gold unified between different countries?

I wonder if there is some kind of agreement between the countries.

If the fake gold coin or gold content used in the gold coin template or something is different, the villain's third party is going to get it, but I guess the demon props and skills will determine the real and fake around it. It would be difficult to discover if counterfeit money were widespread in Shirai......

Oh, no...

Even when I paid for it at the inn, I could normally use Oseberian currency.

[Kingdom of Oseberia] is a big country, so it has gained some credibility and maybe it feels like a unified currency for this region......

I'm just an adventurer. I can't help but think about my little difficulties.

"... I see"

Accept the card by placing the reward you received while satisfied in the Item box.

I saw the Adventurer card.
