1164 Episode 1164



A sharp blade mows off the body of a goblin and splashes its internal organs from the wound.

"Yum yum yum yum yum yum yum yum!"

 A goblin screams, holding back its slashed belly.
 Stomping on such a goblin's neck, the adventurer screams painstakingly.

"d*mn it! How many are there! There's no end to it!"
"I know! But now we have to fight! If you bring them closer to Gilmoo, the damage will increase!"

 A man with a hammer screams at a man's adventurer with a man with a long sword in his hand.
 The hammer bears the blood, flesh and bones of a goblin, indicating the intensity of the battle.
 The fierce fighting was evidenced by the bodies of goblins lying on the ground.
 The number of adventurers fighting this flock of goblins is over ten, but the number of goblins is over a hundred... no, over 150.
 Adventurers are fighting each other, but if they fight with all their might for a long time, they will be exhausted.
 If this were a little more powerful monster, adventurers would also fight with nervousness.
 This time, however, the other party is Goblin.
 You can't help but underestimate your opponent and your fighting gets rough.
 Some adventurers thought it would be unsavory, but it was true that there was nothing they could do about it.
 But... the guild, of course, is not thinking about it.
 From Gilm, adventurers come in a new carriage.

"Change! Give me a break!"

 When they get out of the carriage, they hold their bows, shoot arrows one after another, and the adventurer screams.

"Thank you!"

 A man with a long sword screams, and a man with a hammer steps backward with the other adventurers.
 The other adventurers, too, stepped back... the Goblin tried to chase them away, but, as if to break their start, they were shot with arrows, and one after another into the Goblin.
 So the goblins are momentarily frightened, and the other adventurers who come out of the carriage rush forward.
 Similar scenes are happening elsewhere.
 Most of the adventurers here are veteran adventurers such as Rank C and D.
 For that reason, it was possible to immediately cooperate.
 Finally, the adventurers breathe out as they watch a bloody battle going on a short distance away.

"The least salvation would be that the goblins are all fools,"

 The man with the hammer nods back to the man with the long sword telling him so.

"Oh, it's easy for us to ignore adventurers when they're right in front of us."

 Originally, the avant-garde adventurers could be surrounded by several goblins, while the rest of the goblins could be attacked by adventurers and archers resting behind them.
 No, that's natural, but a monster called Goblin can't think that hard.
 Do you just kill and feed the adventurer in front of you... if it's a woman adventurer, do you catch it for breeding? There was only one of them.
 That's why if you have an adventurer in front of you, you'll only focus your attention on that's why.
 But even if it's such a goblin... well, it's because it's such a goblin, or if it's attacked with an arrow, it'll try to retaliate by looking for the one who attacked.

"But why is it like this all of a sudden? The amount of goblin is a little too much to be fashionable."
"I heard from the guild that the number of herds was not so great. Are the others joining in?"

 As the hammer turned his gaze, a flock of goblins, as he said, from elsewhere, joined the pack of adventurers fighting.
 No matter how many goblins you defeat, as much... or more goblins you replenish, so the battle never seems to end.

"I wish we could have knocked him down,"

 The long‐sworded man's words have no qualms.
 I had no intention of losing as much as a goblin if I hadn't fought on for a long time.
 And even if he was a goblin, he would have been rewarded for beating this number.
 But honestly, he wants to defeat the goblin leader who is leading the pack if possible.
 I heard from the guild that there were not so many herds.
 No, it's probably not wrong in itself.
 In fact, the guild didn't have a large herd when it grasped the situation.
 The question is whether another flock of goblins is gathering in this battle.
 At any rate, it was certain that the rewards would increase if we could defeat the goblin leader who was leading such a herd.

(It would be best if I could catch him alive... but I don't want to take such a long time, and moreover, I don't want to do anything dangerous.)

 Swallow the water from the water bottle in the carriage and reach for the bread.
 This carriage was loaded with commensurate supplies, perhaps the guild knew it would be a long meeting.

"In the evening, a more powerful party will come. ...and I'd like to get it done by then, if I could."

 Fortunately, it is still daylight, and the people who have been asked to kill a flock of goblins heading to Guillum are those looking for work in the guild and adventurers who have enjoyed their holidays.
 Thus, it was possible that adventurers who had been asked to do it in the morning and returned to the guild would run here as reinforcements.
 Of course, it was the worst development to be attacked by a goblin in a situation where there was not enough fighting power, but on the other hand, we would like to refrain from having high-powered adventurers come and wipe out the goblin herd in terms of their own earnings.
 The long‐sworded man muttered in such a way... the man with the hammer in his hand opens his mouth after a few seconds of silence.

"I don't think you should expect that. I'm done with this work."
"...what?"

 The long-sworded man, who suddenly seemed to say what he was saying, noticed that the man with the hammer was not himself, not an adventurer fighting against the Goblin, but was looking elsewhere.
 The man who followed his gaze saw something flying in the sky.
 I didn't know what it was at first.
 Because it was flying at a very high altitude, it looked like a small spot from the ground.
 However, the little dots are gradually getting bigger, perhaps because they are heading to the earth, and make the dagger man understand exactly what they are. Let me... put it away.

"Why is he coming here?" and to whom we are."

 At the end of the muttering long-sworded man's view, a number of flame balls were produced around his presence, which had gone behind the goblins... the next moment the flame strikes them from behind.
 The goblin leader behind a group of goblins is the first to be targeted, turning into a live torch and crumbling to the ground.
 Of course, the fireballs are not one, but they hit the goblins one after another, creating explosives around them.
 The goblins fighting the adventurers may have been knocked unconscious by the sound of explosions from behind. Many individuals turn back in a hurry...the next moment they are caught in an eye-opening space and killed in a fierce attack by adventurers.
 Furthermore, when the backguard of the goblin is badly damaged by a blazing ball, including the goblin leader, the creature... Seto throws out a firebreath.
 Seto shakes his head, spitting out a firebreath that burns a goblin.
 Then the flames will naturally move, and more goblins will be burned by firebraces.
 Unlike the flame shot by Ray, who was first on Sett's back, it is not powerful enough to extinguish the goblin in an instant.
 But still flames are flames. The longer it took to die, the greater the suffering of the goblins.

"Wow... Is Ray here?"

 mutter another adventurer nearby
 Even here, it was clear who was attacking from behind the goblin.
 If you're an adventurer of Gillum... no, it's not Gillum, but every adventurer can understand.
 If any adventurer doesn't know Ray, it's no use being told that he's an adventurer of Moguri.
 Therefore, all the adventurers here, including the dagger and hammer, know Ray.
 And by the time Ray arrived, he also understood that the flock of goblins had already been wiped out.

"If possible, I wish a high-ranking adventurer would come except Ray."
"...the guild didn't want the adventurer to do any harm, did it?"

 Ray, who is good at fighting wide-area destruction, was the perfect match for monsters like Goblin.
 The long-sworded man understands it, but it also means that when Ray arrived, their chances were already gone.
 I could hardly expect a reward because I was earning money from the goblins, but I should have been able to earn a certain amount of money if I beat so many.
 and above all, the reason why he regretted the long-sworded man.""Ah... now I'm not really surprised to tell Mietzsche about my success."

 I couldn't brag about it to my favorite prostitute.
 Of course, it's true that he killed so many goblins, and it's clear that he saved the Gillum crisis.
 But there was still a compelling difference between Ray and Sett's overwhelming achievements.

"It's more wrong to compare it with Ray, isn't it?" He's notorious, and he's just a Gryphon, isn't he just a Gryphon? It's a set."

 He was a long-sworded man who thought the word "rare species" might be used, but considering how he treated Set in Gilm, he understood that the word "set" was more appropriate.
 That's how high Seto is in Gilm.
 ...however, it's not like an ordinary tamed monster, it's like a pet.
 Of course, even if it is treated as a pet, it must be a glyphon.
 Its ability is so high that anyone who can only see Seto as a pet will have a hard time of reprimanding him if he makes a strange intervention.

"Well, I know that," I know... but it hurts me that I can't tell her about my bravery."

 The man with the hammer breathes at the sound of a dagger with deep regret.
 Many adventurers say that going to brothels is their hobby.
 But I still suspect that my partner is too much.
 I've warned you a few times before, but I've already given up because it doesn't work.
 Even though I knew it, I still had a lot of thoughts.

"Then, I don't think you should have seen Sett beat him, but you should have told him that he was with him in the subjugation of the Goblin?"
"Well... I see! Then, don't be happy with someone who is interested in Seto! Here we go!"
"Yes, yes,"

 The man with the hammer smiles bitterly, wondering where the fatigue he had been feeling for some time now has gone.
 However, his partner is definitely a reliable partner, and he picks up a hammer of his own weapon, asking if he will help create a story about sleeping in a brothel.
 Its weight is considerable, not a wooden hammer, but a metal hammer.
 It's probably because of the adventurers in Gilm who have the power to wield such weapons.
 Drinking water and eating light fruit, they regained strength and motivation with sweetness -- the long-sworded man may have thought of the brothel of the evening -- and they head straight to the goblins.

"Oh, come on!"

 A man shooting an arrow a short distance away from the carriage, when he sees them, tries to call out to them... the situation where Ray and Sett launch a surprise attack from behind the enemy is worthy of describing it as the hunting time of the goblins.
 Under such circumstances, it was true that the more troops we had to fight to reduce the number of goblins as little as possible.
 Now that the goblin leader is dead, the goblins here will run away.
 With that in mind, it is true that the best option is to have the two of us fight.

(And we have no reason to complain about it, because it is our own military power.)

 When he was saved, he thought so and played the strings of the bow.
 Arrows fired from a man's hand pierce the body of a goblin.
 The goblin was supposed to be the first to attack him, but now there are a number of explosions behind him... and he's confused to see the flames coming out.
 Thus, the raids by Ray and Seto, special forces, confuse the Goblin group and kill all but the lucky ones on the spot.
