1030 Episode 1030



Arra pulls up the carriage and everybody gets off.
 It was questionable what all but the three Dark Elves felt when they got out of the carriage.

"Well, Marina," Is there really a world tree boundary here? I don't think there's anything in my eyes."

 As she looks around and asks, Marina... and Audovan and Jusla nod with small smiles, and Marina opens her mouth to represent the three.

"I suppose. The boundary of trees in the world doesn't seem to be there. If people find out that the boundary is there, of course there will be people who try to break it, but the first boundary is that the person who wanders in and out of his or her way is diverted by the boundary and returns to the forest without knowing it."
"...first? Does that mean there are other boundaries?"
"Yes, if you go over this boundary for a while, there's a physical boundary... a boundary of barriers." but the effect of the doubt is much lower than it was when I knew it."

 Marina looked a little sad, but when she closed her eyes, she concentrated her magical powers and opened her mouth.

"Please let me through."

 The effect of the short word was as clear as it could be seen.
 It's not a change to be seen. But something has definitely changed.

"Is this the boundary of the world tree?"

 Audovan nods back with a proud smile to Vichela's words, muttered with a cry of surprise.

"Yes, this is the boundary of the world tree. but, as Marina said, I am much weaker than before."

 Vichela turns her eyes to Audovan's words, telling her that the disease of the world tree is such a nuisance.
 It's a thick forest.
 There are signs of life moving in such a forest.

"Well, let'said he. There are no monsters coming out of here, so you don't have to go that fast."

 Marina urged him, and everybody but Sett tried to get back into the carriage...

"Squeak!"

 Elena's yello clapped its wings and landed on Seto's back when she gave a short cry.

"Squeak?"

 As he leaned his head slightly and asked Elena, his master turned his gaze to Marina after a moment of thought.

"You said that there are not as many monsters coming out of here as there have been in the past, but how fast will the carriage go?"
"Well..."

 It seems that the two horses pulling the carriage are not out of breath yet. However, there was no doubt that I was exhausted, although I could not tell from the outside, because I had run so fast.  
 If that's the case, I don't think there's any need to force it to run here.

"I think it's all right to proceed normally." The only thing to note is that there are monsters in this world of confusion. That's why the boundaries of confusion can't be effective unless you're smarter than a certain level, so the boundaries of confusion can be ineffective for monsters who rely on your instincts."
"…I don't know. But is it true that there are fewer monsters than outside the boundary?"
"Yes. ... Right?"

 Marina turns her eyes to Audovan and Jusla.
 Marina was right, as far as she knew, but fortunately they both nod back, thinking it might be a little different in today's frail world trees.

"That's the same as before," However, even monsters with a certain level of intelligence often slip in. and robbers."
"That's why I'm caught, isn't it?"I always thought it would be all right."

 Jusla's words, which seem to have been taken out of her tone, naturally put a smile on everyone's lips.

"Well, let's hurry first," I want to treat the world tree as soon as possible."

 Encouraged by Marina, Yero ends up riding on Seto's back, and the rest of them ride into a carriage.

"Well, I'm off," We must go straight down this road, shall you?"

 Marina and three other dark elves nod to Arra's words in the cab.
 The road is clearly worse than before the boundary of confusion.
 It probably means that many people are unable to enter the confines of confusion.
 though some bad roads have no effect on Elena's carriage.
 a horse‐drawn carriage going at a slower pace than into a lost circle
 There is no sign of urgency there.
 It felt like a picnic, and the lays looked out of the window and enjoyed the view.
 Marina, who are worried about the world trees, are now sharing their memories with each other by changing moods.
 Meanwhile, Marina suddenly opens her mouth.

"Come to think of it, old man... is the elder still well?"
"Yes, I'm fine, too." and when he sent me to Marina, he waved his cane about telling me to go quickly."
"I often get hit with a cane, too."
"...the Dark Elf Elder is quite well, isn't he? Usually speaking of elders, I imagine a more gentle person."

 Elena interrupts whether the word "Dark Elf Presbyter" has attracted her interest.
 The Dark Elves probably imagined their elders would be quiet to Elena. They almost burst out reflexively and manage to hold it in.

"If the elder were quiet, I think there would be no one active in the world."
"...so much?"

 Ray also joins the story intriguingly to see who is the elder.
 Bune was staring, albeit unchanged, at Bune.

"Well, for example... there was a time when a family girl was taken away by a slave merchant. At that time I realized that I was going to chase her before I got out of the woods, but when I was about to leave, the elder man came back with her."
"Well, he's the elder of the Dark Elves. Of course, magic techniques are expensive, so I don't think it's surprising to do so much..."
"Do you think so?"

 At Elena's words, Marina says so with a smile.
 It's as if Elena would be surprised to hear what's going on.

"...not?"
"I'm not mistaken," but the old man who came back had his cane, face and body stained with blood."
"Huh? I mean... not magic or archery, but beating him to death with a cane?"

 Speaking of the Elves, many are basically good at archery and magic.
 I wouldn't say that there were no close combatants, but many of the Elves were individually different but not very muscular.
 Therefore, many Elves choose light, speed-conscious weapons such as rapiers when it comes to close attacks.
 Those who hear the story are naturally surprised to hear that the elders of the Dark Elves, one of the Elves, have stained their sticks and faces with blood.
 Marina does not speak and just nods back to Elena's timid question.
 Then Arra, who is sitting on the cab, screams as if she was trying to get the right timing."I'm the enemy!"

 a short, sharp remark to convey one's business.
 However, the group acted quickly when they heard it.
 Reaching for each weapon, Marina, who is familiar with the situation and yet knows the power of the Lays as adventurers, draws attention.

"The fact that we are in the midst of a maze of boundaries may even come to our village. I don't want to put an extra burden on the world's borders now that the world's trees are weak. I'll intercept you."

 When I told her so, she must have heard it through the open door. The speed of the carriage slows down.

"All right. Set!"
"Gul-l-r-r-r-r-r-r!"

 Despite calls from inside the carriage, Seto screams menacingly.
 Seth's shout must be troubling to the enemy.
 But when Seto is on his side, the scream turns into an inspiration.
 Although the carriage had not stopped completely, the people in the carriage rushed out of the door in turn.
 The first thing that jumped out was, of course, Ray.
 Lei leaps out of his hand thinking of the carriage door and performs the acrobatic feat of landing on the ground and balancing his death-size out of the mistling.
 He had a partner in a different way than Seto, and looked around him... and immediately came into view was a monster that could be called a giant bird of prey.
 It differs from ordinary birds of prey in that it has four giant wings, two on each side, but it is not so different from birds of prey, such as hawks and eagles, except for wings.

"Oh, it's a bird-shaped monster aerowing. Fly off!"

 Flying off a death-size blade, the flying slug was fired at the aerowing of Rank C Monster, a bird-shaped monster who was about to attack the carriage.
 However, Aero Wing uses its four distinctive wings to rapidly change direction in the air to avoid flying.

"Ray, don't attack me like that!"

 Rarely... yes, Ray tried to say something back to Marina, who screamed so desperately that she thought she would never hear it before, but soon remembered that this was already in the midst of a lost boundary... in the midst of a world tree.
 In other words, if a magical attack is carried out here, it will fly away and come into contact with the boundary.
 This would put a greater strain on the world tree, and it would certainly be a great damage to the already weak world tree.
 What Ray is doing is supposed to be the magic of the wind, but it's actually a skill created by witchcraft.
 There's a difference between magic and skill, but there's no difference between them in conjunction with magic.

"This place is in a world of confusion, so there is less damage than removing the attack in the boundary of barriers, but considering Ray's magical powers, don't be careless!"

 As she screams, Marina releases her hand from the bowstring she holds and shoots an arrow.
 The arrow, which flew at a rate as if it were cutting through the wind, was also averted by the aerowing, which moved four wings deftly. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

"Oh my gosh!"

 an aerowing that screams pain like a snake, even though it's a bird.
 The cause of the cry is probably a blade that is cutting off the leg.
 The blade originated from Elena, who held a Mirage of the connected sword.
 He wielded a whip-shaped Mirage and attacked the aerowing.

"Do you have four wings?" I was going to cut the wings off."

 With a long sword-like Mirage in hand, Elena looks sharply at the aerowing.
 Basically, it was an aerowing that could be said to be a pretty powerful monster because of its rank C monster, but this time the opponent who attacked everything was bad.
 Each of them is a Rank C monster…and should be defeated at a Rank C party, even if it is a top-ranked monster in Rank C, there are a number of individuals who have enough to defeat it.
 But the reason why Aero Wing doesn't run away is...

(Marina said it was a bad influence on the world tree.)

 Attacking with skills using death size is sometimes said to be unsavory, so you take a spear out of the mistling as if you were replacing it with death size.
 Feeling that a magical attack would be fine, he holds the spear in his hand... and just as he tries to throw it, the Aerowing flaps its wings wide.
 a number of windy blades released at the same time
 It was an attack that seemed to have reduced Ray's firing.

"There's no way you'll let me do it, is there?

 With the words, Vihela, with magical claws growing from the back of her hand, stands in front of Ray.
 Then the claws that are quickly sharpened cut through every blade of the wind.
 Vihela had no long-range means of attack, only for combatants, except to intercept long-range attacks.
 And the moment the blade of the wind was cut off.

"Vihela!"
"Yes!"

 Understand Ray's intentions and leave with a brief conversation.
 At the same time the spear was released by Ray's force as fast as cutting through the air itself...

"Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

 The reptile-like voice was raised again, and the aerowing tried to avoid it with four wings, but the thrown spear did not allow it to pass through one wing.

"Roll-roll-roll-roll!"

 A blow to the aerowing, which had been unbalanced in the air by throwing a spear, from the front foot as Seto fell from a higher position... to unleash his power crash skills... to detonate his head and fall to the ground.
