977 Episode 0977



With cyclops' bodies rolling around, Mileine thinks about what to do.
 Originally, the request they received was to subjugate the Cyclops.
 When it came to the forest, there were five cyclops, and there were red cyclops that seemed to be rare or superior species.
 When they decided to withdraw, judging that they had no chance of winning, including the Red Cyclops, they ended up raging two cyclops in the area where the horses and carts were located.
 A total of seven cyclops and a red cyclops, considered rare or superior.
 We thought we couldn't do anything by ourselves, but we managed to survive thanks to the return of Dietz, who had been to Gilm to call for reinforcements.

(I don't think it's a serious injury.)

 Mileine muttered inwardly, looking at Eccrill lying a little further away.
 Since most of the injuries have already been cured using the potions, all I have to do is wait for them to notice.
 It must have been fortunate for Eclir that the trauma itself was not so bad.
 In fact, the only injuries Eclir suffered were bruises and cuts from falling off a branch of a tree, no fractures, and no lightning struck by the hammer of the red cyclops.
 This allowed the Miredog's portions to heal almost completely.

"And what are you going to do now?"

 It was Vihela who spoke so.
 This is the first face of a Miredog, and it seems to be the acquaintance of Johanna, his natural enemy.
 She is so beautiful that you can hardly see her in the forest, but she wears only light clothes like those worn by dancers and prostitutes, as well as the insteps and insteps worn on her hands and feet.
 You can obviously fight in the woods... no, it doesn't look like fighting a monster.
 But seeing Vichela in that figure -- and Seto helped -- against the five Cyclops, I couldn't think of saying anything.
 Before that, I've found myself overwhelmingly stronger than myself just by looking at it.

"Well, that's right. It's really hard to bring home the seven Cyclops..."

 There are seven cyclops over 4 meters tall.
 It was impossible to take it home, no matter what you think of it.
 I had originally intended to take one of my first targets to Gilm in a carriage.
 The carriage has also been destroyed by Cyclops attacks, making it almost impossible to take the body home.
 Vichela is the one who owns it, since it wasn't them who overthrew the five cyclops before that.

"It's impossible to bring even one back, so I wonder if I can bring only the right ear and the magic stone of the proof of subjugation, and the eyeballs and horns that sell well."
"Well, it's very unfortunate, but..."

 Sulnin gasps and says to the words of the Mileine.
 He breathes the most, but there is no expression of regret in Sulnin's expression.
 It was because they thought it was a good reward to have all survived, even though they were prepared to defeat the seven Cyclops at one point.
 The slight scratches on the eclipses may have had an effect.

"Well, but isn't it too bad? Cyclops ingredients sell for quite a bit of meat, skin, bones, tendons, etc. and there are internal organs which are also used in magic and alchemy."

 Johanna's words put a discontented look on her face.
 But the expression of dissatisfaction is probably not so much against Johanna's words as against Seto, who is stroking her.
 If it were true, I would like to caress Seto, but now I am the leader of what we call the Cyclops Expedition, and I have to work on various things, and I don't have time to play with Seto.

"But what's impossible is impossible," Well, if the people who had just scattered about in the woods came back, we might be able to take some of them by hand, but... it hurts that the carriage was destroyed. I can sell cyclops meat at a very high price."
"Roll-rolling.

 The word cyclops meat makes Seto cry.
 The wistful look on his face made me understand that he wanted to eat.

"We'll have to leave most of Cyclops' corpses anyway, and if Seto wants to eat it, can he?" ... Well, Mr. Vihela? No, sir? Was it? What would you do there?"

 When Mireinu saw Viehra watching their conversation with Bune, she looked as if Johanna and Deet had gone.
 He ended up misrepresenting what Vihela was like, but that was the way he did it.
 However, Vihela spoke without showing any particular concern for the attitude of the Miller Dog.

"Well, then, I think I'll just have the proof of subjugation and the magic stone." You can do whatever you like about the ingredients. It's a lot of trouble."

 What came out of Vihela's mouth was completely unexpected to Mireine.

"Well, you said you couldn't hold it... did you hear it?"

 For some reason, Vihela looks at Mireneu, who asks respectfully, saying she doesn't understand what she's talking about.

"You don't need a carriage, do you?"

 Vichela looked in the direction in which the Mireinu escaped.
 The Mire Dog, who followed his gaze, thought for a moment that the red Cyclops might come out scratching through the trees...

"What? Was it already done? You needn't have hurried."

 Coming out from behind the bushes, Ray, as usual, dressed in dragon robes.
 You may wonder if it's normal to be here empty-handed, but Ray has an item box and always shows a scythe of weapons... and then Mileine turns to Vihela.
 It was because I understood that a carriage was unnecessary, which I had just mentioned.

"Well, if you need Ray, the item box..."
"Huh? What's wrong with you? ... But you did it very loud again."

 Ray mutters, looking around, questioning the words of the Miredog.
 To the bodies of the five Cyclops that Vihela was fighting against, two Cyclops bodies a short distance away.
 In total, there were seven cyclops dead in this area.
 When there are seven cyclops dead bodies about four meters tall, the amount of them is considerable.

"Huh. Right? But honestly, Cyclops wasn't as strong as I thought. Even so, it was just right in the sense that I could attack as much as I wanted in the sense that I was tough. Is it unscrupulous of you to want to fight against a stronger opponent?"

 Vichela sends a glance at Ray, telling him so.
 The prostitute's seductive gesture, in part because of her light clothing, had a glamour that shook not only Rey but also the deetz who knew Vihela's true identity, but also the usually mild Sulnin's spine.

"Wait a minute, Ray," She looks like your acquaintance, but... what kind of person? If you were in Gillum, you'd be a little rumored to be an adventurer who could deal with five cyclops at the same time, but you probably hadn't heard of it before."
"Correct. You just came to Gilmoo with us yesterday."

 At the words of Ray's mouth, Mileine turns her gaze to Seto, who is loved by Johanna, instead of Vihela...

"Well, if you're coming back yesterday, I'd like you to call me beforehand." and I've been waiting for you to knock the Cyclops down."
"Don't be silly, you've gotta be silly." How should I get in touch with you in the first place? It would be a different story if I had a pair of obes."
"A pair of obes?"

 Miredogs tilt their heads, wondering if this is the first name they've heard.

It's a kind of magic item. It's a pair of crystals, and if you use them, you can talk to each other."

 Sulnin explains to Milein, perhaps familiar with the name.What a convenient magic item! I've never heard of it. I mean, if I had it, I could always talk to Seto, where do you sell it? I'd make money for it!"

 You may be able to see the set anytime, anywhere.
 When I think about it, the body of the Mire Dog is filled with energy out of nowhere.
 I wonder if I can fight a few cyclops from now on.

"Ah... the Mire Dog." Unfortunately, pairs of ovens are very rare and basically don't go on the market. If you really want it, you'll have to look for dungeons and ancient monuments. Or negotiate with the person who has it and ask them to sell it."

 The moment he hears the word, Mireine's gaze turns to Ray.
 Rank S Adventurer Ray's eyes are so intense that he can't help retreating a few steps, even though he's confronted with immovable noise.
 Of course, Ray doesn't think he'll lose the battle against the Miredog, but he still retreats, overwhelmed by the mysterious power.

"I'll tell you, if you take it from me, there's nothing I can do about it,"

 I have exactly two pairs of oves, but I can't show you Grimm's, let alone Elena's.
 Ray's words open his mouth, feeling the energy in his body ebbs away as he sees it.

"...I know. Well, so what was it about? Oh, yeah. You mean who that Vihela is. And that child, too. It's unusual for a man of that age to be so skilled, and to be able to take without hesitation."
"That means?"

 Ray asks, not knowing what the dog is saying, but the dog still frowns as much as to imagine pain in words.

"That child stuck a long needle between Cyclops' toenails. I threw it exactly."
"Wow,"

 A similar expression appears on Ray's face, understanding why Mileine looked so painful.
 If you think of it as damage, it may not be fatal, but just imagining the pain makes you want to frown.
 It was, however, the Mire Dogs who attacked and defeated the Cyclops in groups.

"Well, Bune is a bandit who had a party with Vichela when she was in Egzil. You can say that you're good at it."
"I knew in the last battle that you were good at... Egzil is a labyrinthine city, right? You seem to be more skilled than I imagined you were there as a thief. ...and what kind of person is Mr. Vihela after all, if he is the sort of person who manages the five Cyclops on his own, he might as well just hear a rumor as he is not in Gilm."
"...an adventurer who was famous for his skill in Egidil."

 Ray hesitated for a moment about what to say, but ultimately he does.
 I wasn't telling a lie, but I wasn't telling the whole truth.

"Well... well, I don't mind,"

 You must have somehow figured out that Ray was hiding something.  
 But the Mire Dog did not pursue any more, perhaps understanding that there was some reason.

"Ray, can you put the cyclops in the item box and carry them?"

 Rey nods without any hesitation to the words from Vihela.
 It may be a little too much to say that most of the faces here are relatives... but they are still close friends.
 It didn't matter to Ray to use mistrings on such people.
 At once he approached the five Cyclops, and when he saw them, the Mire Dog, for a moment, was glad to see that his work was over to Seto.
 Of course, you're not completely off guard even in front of Seto, and it's very clear that there's no hostile presence around you.
 Nevertheless, he is often called a veteran adventurer because he pays attention to Seto, who is happily caressed by Johanna.
 Surnin stands guard by Ekryl's side, and Bune approaches Vihela's side and gazes happily at Seto, who is caressed. Dietes had something on his hands, but he was wary of what was going on the world around him.

"You must have fought very hard,"
"Really? To be honest, I wish I could have had a better time."

 In the face of Cyclops' corpse, Vihela breathes as though she was close to disappointment.

"I'm sure he was physically strong. I'm just swinging my arms and legs forcefully.I'm a little more skilled against him."

 Despite hearing such complaints as before, Ray touched the body of the Cyclops... and began storing it.
