While Takht was mining in the Yellow Ossa Mountains, the top players of the event were gathering in the town of Fast. Their goal was to defeat Garbella Glow, the boss of the Young Tree Forest.

In fact, they had tried many times before, but they had failed. One of the reasons was because all the top players in the event didn't get together for real life reasons. But they were coming up Saturday and for the first time, they were going to take on a full party of 30 Legions of the event's top players for the first time.

The formation was 10 heavy warriors, 3 warriors, 2 spearmen, 4 knights, 1 ninja, 5 wizards, 2 archers, and 3 clergymen.

The heavy warrior, warrior, knight, spearman and ninja are all using the curse blade and poison sword distributed at the event. Furthermore, with the exception of the ninja, their armor is fortified with iron.

The five wizards were chosen as the five with the highest levels of fire magic and explosive magic. The archers were also high level, and the clerics were gathered from the stiff members of the event who had performed their healers admirably.

They arrived at Gerberagrow's place in the early afternoon, defeating the miscellaneous fish. The leader, a knight, calls out to all of them.

''I'm sure it's okay since they're all top players who performed well in the event, but you remember their attack patterns, right?''

"Oh.
"Yes.

'Yes!　Well, let's go. Today, we're going to take down the boss here, Garbella Glow, for the first time!

Oh!

Thus began the battle with Garbella Glow.

First, when the heavy warriors entered the range of Gerberaglow's attack, they held their shields and used their martial arts to attack the vines.

''Impact Counter!''

They return the attacks they receive, and Gerberagrow takes an attack from his own vines. Quickly, they all get into attack range, take up their assigned formation, and the two archers release a ravenous arrow.

''Arrow Rain!''

A rain of poisonous arrows rains down on Garbella Glow. And a ninja approaches the frightened Garbera Glow at high speed.

'Hayabusa Slayer.'

Garbella Glow suffers from a curse condition. But Garbella Glow will not be silenced. He aims at the ninja with his vines.

'Mission accomplished, farewell.

The ninja ties a sign. The ninja is hit by a gerbera glow vine and knocked into a tree, but the next moment, the ninja's figure turns into a log. It is a famous shapeshifting jutsu.

The ninja who nullified the damage with the shapeshifting jutsu immediately joins the party.

''Good work. You've done a splendid job.''

I'll do my job for you. I'm not gonna hurt you in here, okay?

Yeah. It's okay.

From there, it was an endurance battle. The heavy warriors defended against Garbella Glow's attacks while the heavy warriors changed. Then, they attacked with Poison and Carth's weapons, blocking their recovery, and going for damage with poison damage and the effects of plant suicide attacks.

''Explosions!''
"Heat Lance!
"Penetrate the Arrow!

As the magic and arrows explode, Garbella Glow's life force is cut in half, and Garbella Glow screams out.

'Attack pattern, change!　Clergy, prepare to recover!

""Yes!"

The moment the leader warns them, the attack of the Garbella Glow, which had only been waving vines, changes. Vines emerge from the ground one after another, attacking the heavy warrior who is provoking them.

''Shield Guard!''

The heavy warriors have no choice but to fortify their defenses against an attack that is impossible to handle.

''Area healing!''

However, the cleric's highly effective range recovery magic alternates and continues to prevent Gerberaglow's attacks. Meanwhile, the wizard and the archer attack.

Garbella Glow inhales after the attack.

''The poison breath is coming!　Get out of range!　Take care of the spearman.

As the players all moved away from the range of the poisonous breaths at once, the two spear users closed in from either side of Garbella Glow.

''Three stars!''

A trio of spear thrusts explode on Garbella Glow, and Karth and Poison continue. The two spear users duck Garbella Glow's attack with great footwork, and the party returns to its original position, once again.

The process is repeated, and with only a few moments left, the leader says.

''We're about to turn to our last pattern!　The Heavy Warriors are in a circular formation!　Rearguard in the center, ready to attack!　Warriors, knights and spearmen, follow me!

As Garbella Glow screams, vines emerge from the ground from all directions of the party and attack the entire party as targets.

Furthermore, Carvelaglow fires a barrage of parasitic trees. When this happens, the heavy warriors are only a wall to protect the rear guard. They desperately defend and buy time for magic chanting.

In response, the warriors rush in anyway. The reason for this tactic is that we tried to attack with magic alone in another party, but the heavy warriors couldn't hold it.

As a result, it took the form of a suicide mission where we were prepared to die.

While some of them were caught and thrown by the vines, a few of them fleshed out on Garbella Glow.

''Olaaaaah!''

f*ck you!　Hey!

One by one they are caught and thrown by the Gerberagrow vines as they unleash their abuse and damage. Then comes the moment they've been waiting for.

''Explosions!''
"Heat Lance!
"Penetrate the Arrow!

The rearguard's magic bursts out of the bow and Gerberagrow screams and is defeated. The level up info was played and a battle cry went up for the players.

''The young tree forest boss 'Garbella Glow' has been defeated for the first time.
"All those who defeated the first victim have been awarded the title 'Destroyer of the Young Tree Forest'

While everyone is happy with their own, the leaders are the focus of the discussion.

'It sounds like you ended up defeating them and succeeding.

''The title gave us all 10 skill points, and it's also a title that has a suicide attack effect on plant monsters. It's a good thing I joined this Legion.

So what was that rumor all about, anyway?

That rumor was that the country had banned them from defeating Garbella Glow, but they didn't believe it.

'I don't know about that. It's a rumor spread by a small fry that can't even be defeated anyway, right?　It's actually not happening, is it?

Yes!

'Don't worry about it, just get on with it and dismantle it. Leader.

'Ah. After this, it's time for a celebration and a rock-paper-scissors contest for Gerbera Glow material.

Their leader dismantles Garbella Glow.

'My long overdue mission is over... hopefully the nature of this land is intact...'

When Garbella Glow said that, it became a light and disappeared.

'Oh, that?　What's the material?

The moment their leader did so, a magic circle appeared around them, and as it shattered, an infographic played.

'An emergency quest 'Zombie Army, Attack' has occurred.

The info became the info that their happy hour was over. The forest of young trees is suddenly enveloped in a dark cloud.

When they were suddenly caught by the countless hands that appeared from the ground, zombies appeared from the ground one after another.

''Hee!

They resisted desperately, but the zombies could not be defeated with normal weapons. Moreover, the zombie was not a normal zombie.

When you defeat a zombie, purple smoke is emitted.

'Kukk...what?　This smoke!

'This is not the time for that!　Retreat!　We have to pull back!

Oh, hey!　Jesus Christ!　The durability of our weapons is diminishing with every passing moment!

What?

Their weapons and armor were being lost one by one.

'Shit!　You've got to be kidding me!

What the hell?　Here!

No, don't come...don't bite me...

They were bitten by one zombie horde after another and returned to death.

In the midst of all this, there was one person who was desperate to escape. It was a ninja. He had investigated the facts of the rumors in the Adventurer's Guild, figured something would happen, defeated them, and escaped from the Legion at the same time as they were defeated, and was the first to escape.

''They're fools. That's what happens when you act without properly researching the information.''

He thought he could get away with it completely, but someone suddenly appeared behind him and slashed his dominant arm.

''Gu... what!

'Haha!　Did you think you could get away with it?　I'm sorry - I'm sorry. I love to bully and kill people like you who are feeling your pleasure, you know. Your pleasure, let me feel it too.

Don't lick it!

The ninja fights, but he gets all his fingers slashed, his ankles and wrists slashed. Each time, the being in front of him floats into madness.

'd*mn!　Why don't you kill him!

'Oh?　That's because it's the most fun I've ever had watching you suffer. Just like you were happy to hear those guys you were with scream, too.

That said, that guy doused the ninja with a potion, restoring the life force that was about to die.

''Nah!''

The ninja's face is tinged with despair.

'Oh, I love that face - I am!　Come on, more tears, more despair!　Entertain me!

A ninja was toyed with by a mysterious being and returned to death.

And there was a being that watched the whole thing from the sky. That being was the demon Nebilos, the one Tact had fought before.

'Hahaha!　Utterly human beings are the best!　Now it's time for the appointment!　Humans!　Let the party begin!

That declaration became a declaration of war between humans and the undead.
