969 Episode 0969



Leis and others from Gilm discuss how to act as they follow Dietz's lead to the forest.
 Vihela's horse riding skills are so high that she has no instability in carrying a veneer in front of her.
 Dietz was not as skilled at riding as Vihela, but he never fell off a running horse.
 In the event of a civil war, when selecting a member as a shortstop, it is necessary to move quickly, so it is only natural that you must have a certain level of horse riding skills, and it was collected in such a way that deetz was included.
 And Vichela and Dietz take their horses on their behalf in case of emergency, with Seto running beside them.
 It's a well-trained horse, so you don't have to be frightened to see Seto.

"What are you going to do now? If you tell me where you are, I'll take the set and go first."

 Being able to fly, it is possible, and being able to pinpoint the forces of Seto and Ray would have been a very effective strategy for dealing with five rank C monsters called Cyclops.
 But Dietz shakes his head as he hurries his horse.

"Given Captain Ray's power, I'd like to do so if I could, but... the location is a little bit confusing. I've been travelling through the woods since yesterday to stay."
"It's hard to understand? I and Seto have been to that forest quite a bit, so if there's not much left, there's no problem."

 Lei's mind was crossed by a metastatic stone used by the agents of the Vestian Empire, and only Seto had metastasized.
 Seto had metastasized into a cave deep in the forest, and Ray followed it here.
 Fortunately, he was joined by the scorching wind, which saved Seto from feeling lonely.
 Recalling the time, Ray gently caresses Seto on the neck in front of him.
 I feel a chill in my spine when my set disappears in front of me.

"Glu?"

 As Seto runs around and looks back, Ray shakes his head and then opens his mouth to Dietz.

"And, as we may be accustomed to being together, Seto is a Gryphon. The five senses are as sharp as the animals around them. It has the ability to sense magic, and you will understand the scorching wind of Sulnin by magic."
"Now that you mention it, Seto was a Gryphon, wasn't he? It's all...

 The end of the word must be a flower, if not a flower.
 Dietz bows hurriedly at Seto's slightly offended voice.

"Oh, I'm sorry," ...and if you can find Johannahs with Seto's ability, can you go ahead and ask him to do it, like five cyclops? It's really stylish. If Ray and Sett go there, we'll be safe if Cyclops hits us."
"Ray, you know, but don't do the magic of fire? Snow might have prevented some wildfires in winter, but considering this season..."

 Ray nods convincingly to Vihela, who runs her horse and tells her.  
 It's true that the snow has disappeared and the fire is likely to spread.
 In the meantime, it was clear what would happen if Ray used the magic of fire in the woods.

"I know. I'm not going to use anyone who has a wide range of effects, even with magic. Not to mention a guy with a narrow range of effects."
"...if possible, I think it's better to stop the narrow range of course. There's a good chance that the cyclops will move around and the flames will spread."
"I'll be mindful of course. At any rate, I and Sett will go ahead, and Vichela and Bune will follow the directions of Dietz."

 Tell him so, Ray pats Sett on the back without even hearing a reply.
 It was because I knew it was a matter of time.
 Knowing this, Diet and Vichela see her off without a word, while Vichela waves her little hand to see her off.

"...are you all right?"

 Deet muttered, seeing Seto soar high up in the sky.
 The words alone may seem to make Ray uneasy about whether he can fight the Cyclops, but Deetz doesn't feel uneasy about that.
 As a former shortstop, I have no worries because I have seen his ability up close.
 However, Deet's current anxiety is not about Ray's ability, but purely about whether his companions will be found in the five cyclops.
 No matter how strong a ray is, it doesn't make sense if you're not in the battlefield in the first place.

"Don't worry,"

 Seto and Ray disappear and a sudden call is made to Deet's back, who is running at full speed to his destination.
 It goes without saying whose voice it is.
 The only people here now are myself, Bune, and Vihela, if you let go of the horse.

"If you think about Sett's flight speed, you should be able to make it in time without any problems. And I don't know about the scorching winds, but the rest of them are the ones who fought in the civil war, right? Trust your comrades."
"…yes, sir. It's no use for me to be in such a hurry here."

 To tell you the truth, you can't feel at ease right away.
 But it's a definite fact that you're in no hurry now.
 And impatience can easily lead to mistakes, resulting in wasted time.
 If you think about it, it may not be meaningless for you to be in a hurry now, but it may lead directly to the crisis of your peers.

"Well, I'll speed it up a little more," ...I'm sorry, but just do your best."

 Put the latter half of the word on your horse and gently stroke your neck.
 Perhaps that made him feel better, but Deet's horse would speed up even more with the yoke.





"Why did Cyclops come close to Gillum in groups?"

 The Miredog muttered as he gazed at the Cyclops, which gathered about 50 meters away in the woods.
 In front of his eyes, Cyclops clashes his head with a club and bites the deer he killed into uncluttered thighs, tearing them apart by forcefully ripping them apart.
 There's blood, hair and bits of meat around the mouth, but cyclops, who devour raw meat, doesn't seem to care.
 No, as if to say that's the best spice, lick your tongue around your mouth.
 Deer were of some size, but if you hang on to five cyclops, you'll be eaten up in no time.
 Cyclops, who ate a leg, reaches for the only remaining deer's head, throws it into his mouth, and bites it with a sturdy fang.
 Mireine frowns faintly at the appearance of a deer that disappeared within minutes.
 Of course, even Miredogs eat deer meat, and it can be said that they like it very much less.
 But it's also deer that have been properly prepared and cooked.
 I don't want to eat raw meat... or, like the Cyclops did, I don't think I'd want to force myself to slice the corpse.

"Well, why not?" Considering the current season, isn't it highly likely that we have now found ourselves lost in this neighborhood because of hunger in winter?"

 Sulnin, who was also watching Cyclops on the side of the Mire Dog, muttered, holding his cane in his hand.
 Even though they are about 50 meters away from the cyclops, they must be nervous because they don't know when they will find them. have no softness in one's voice

"Even so, deer eat raw, but they're smart about pulling out trees to make it easier for them to spend their time."

 To the eclir of muttering while hiding himself in the bushes, the Miredog nods back.

"We're smart enough to make sure we get where we spend our time, let alone eating." -- to my annoyance."
"And since yesterday we've been eating dried meat without using fire..."
"... Do you want to eat raw deer meat? He hasn't prepared it yet."
"Well... yes, I'd like you to come back to the Diet as soon as possible. What do you think?"

 It's the honor of the Rank C party that we can't shake our hidden bushes and make a careless noise while looking away from each other in a misguided way.
 At Eccrill's words, Mileine shakes her head.

"I will arrive at Guillum, look for reinforcements in the guild, and then come back. --not at all at once."
"...if Seto had not been involved, he would have been competent."
"Did you say anything?""No, it's nothing,"

 It seems that the Mire Dog could hear clearly what he had intended to mutter only in his mouth.
 Eclil, who turns his gaze and shakes his head in a hurry.

"Calm down, you two," ...but it's about time for a change. Here you go."

 Looking back at Sulnin's words, Johanna, the natural enemy of the Millerine -- not the enemy who cannot win, but the enemy given to heaven -- was coming towards them, leading three other men.
 The fact that the four of us are moving together and making little noise shows the skill of Johanna.
 The three Mileinines, the four Johanna's who are now coming, and the two who are guarding horses and cabs behind them, and Deet's, who are ten men in total, are on duty to subdue the Cyclops.
 Originally, the number of cyclops seen should have been one, and instead of gathering so many people, the Mireinu could have knocked down enough of the scorching wind.
 But when they go into the woods and search for cyclops, they discover the remains of bears and other wild animals, as well as the remains of oak.
 There was no problem in itself, but examination of the body left uneaten showed that there were not only one tooth profile, but also many different types.
 And, judging that Cyclops is more than one, Millerine decides at that point to send Deet to Gilm for reinforcements.
 It would not have been a problem if we all went back to the guillem because it was very different from the information we had previously received.
 But this forest is not far from Gillum, and if you know that there are five cyclops there, you can't overlook it.
 It may also have something to do with the fact that spring had just begun and there was not much money to spare, and that they had spent the night moving through the woods.
 If you're a monster the size of a cyclops, you'll get a reasonable amount of money just by defeating one.
 If we could defeat the five cyclops, it would have been a considerable income considering the request for reinforcements.
 Loyalty and greed-driven people such as Mireinu and Johanna watched the Cyclops so they could move quickly to attack when reinforcements arrived.

"And how is it over there?"

 As Johanna asks in a low voice, Mileine turns to one of the Cyclops.
 He is an individual who just struck a club and killed a deer at one blow.

"The cyclops with that club move his shoulders for a moment before they attack him. There's a preliminary action, so it's not difficult to avoid their attack."

 Mireneu and Johanna, who usually fight over Seto, are not doing such a foolish thing now.
 They use their work and their private lives differently, and most importantly, they are five cyclops, so if they want to fall out here, they will have to pay for it at their own expense.
 Neither Mileine nor Johanna would have liked it.

"Oh, that kind of easy‐to‐understand opponent is easy to fight against. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Mr. Sulnin is a precious wizard, let alone the Mile Dog, and in case of need he should be our main force."
"I know," About... Wait a minute."

 The Mire Dog tries to say something back to Johanna, but suddenly finds the five Cyclops in front of him strange.
 Until recently, he had been absorbed in the afterglow of eating the deer by forcefully disassembling them with his arms, but he had stopped his movement.  
 Oh, my God, just the opposite of the Mile Dogs and Johanna's lurking...
 Suddenly, a bad feeling passes through his mind, and he holds his breath even more tightly than ever, even though he is about 50 meters away.
 Others must have felt something about him. Following the Mire Dog, they slip more cautiously into the surrounding trees.
 And... the next moment, unlike the green skin of the other cyclops, it was an unusually large cyclops with red skin.
