It's a violent... it's a tremor that strikes the forest of Trent.
　But the tremor itself did not last so long.
　I don't think there was a minute to shake.
　The tremor subsided, and the first to speak was not Ray... but Marina and Vichela, or even one of the other adventurers, Slaisha and Reno.

"Hey, look! The monster is going to collapse!"

　One of the adventurers who was attacking a monster that stopped working until just before the earthquake struck.
　Those around him look at the monsters all at once at the words.
　There were various monsters, including Trent, but now all the monsters are falling apart.
　It's as if the whole body has turned into dust, and the wind blows it away.

"What's going on? The trees that grow don't have any effect at all. Why did you do this?"

　One of the researchers' eyes sparkles and looks at the crumbling monster.
　The people around them must have felt something creepy when they saw the monster crumbling in front of their eyes.
　take an involuntary step or two back
　Gee... Gee... from deep in the forest of Trent... a resounding bass.
　The sound that came with the collapse of the monster was certain to mean something to anyone.

"Get ready so that you can respond to whatever happens!"

　The moment Marina hears the bass, she screams at every adventurer on the spot.
　It was probably because the command he took in the battle against the monster group was accurate. The stunned adventurers, as soon as they come to their senses with Marina's voice, put themselves in position.

"You must get out of here at once. You can ride in a carriage or run."
"No, but..."

　Marina's words were then directed at the researchers, but those who heard them cannot simply back down.
　In the first place, there's a forest of Trents that I've never seen or heard before... or there's... or there'
　My intellectual curiosity as a researcher was so high that I couldn't have left this as it was and returned to Gilm.

"I might die if I stay here! I can't afford to protect you like I did."
"...I don't mind,"

　In Marina's words, one of the researchers hesitates a little.
　In the eyes of the researcher who told me so, there was a strong will... a light colored with intellectual curiosity.
　They say they're going to unlock the secrets of the Trent forest. Marina is at a loss for words as she tells her so.
　And when Marina is at a loss for words, the other researchers nod to the first researcher's words as well.

"Me too,"
"Me too,"
"Me too."
"Momo,"
"Me, too."

　Each of them tells her so, and she looks at Marina as if she will never retreat.
　In the face of these researchers, Marina tried to speak again, but the next moment she heard more noise than ever before in the forest.
　It's like an explosion.
　The explosion, which is now home to adventurers, will be seen, heard and understood from outside the forest of Trent.
　That's what happened in the forest of Trent.
　And only Ray, Vichela, and Sett, and one of them here, predicted that the explosion occurred in the heart of the Trent forest... where they had been until a short time ago and had already been wiped out by the earthquake.

"...what do you think?"

　Vichela asks briefly, but Ray understands what Vichela is trying to say.

"Well, for the time being, I don't have a good feeling. No matter how you look at it, I only have a bad feeling."
"I suppose so,"
"Glu".

　A short distance away from the two conversations that way, Marina says she has no more time to engage with the researchers.

"I don't mind if only those who think they can die here remain." However, I can't afford to protect you either, so please protect yourself. ...and you guys should head to the guild as soon as possible. I'll let you know that something unusual has happened... and call in reinforcements if possible."

　The coachman... Marina tells the guild staff so.
　Guild officials manage to move their horses when Marina nods.
　The horse looked around restlessly from the earthquake and explosion.
　It looks like a small animal who understands that something is wrong.
　That is why the horse should have been pleased with the coachman's move away from the scene.
　The horse immediately leaves the place, pulling a carriage.
　No, it's probably right to describe it as fleeing.
　Looking sideways at it, Ray turned his gaze into the sky... toward the forest of Trent, which was illuminated by the moonlight.

"Well... I don't know what's coming out of it said.
"Well, I don't think we'll find any friendship, considering that Ray has offended the Trent Forest."

　As if following Vichela's words, Rey sees a clear sense of hostility, hatred, and rejection directed at him from the heart of the forest.

(No, is this for me personally? Well, I don't know.)

　Rey's magic left him in his current situation when he saw a doll with a root burned to the ground.
　With that in mind, it would be natural to have such negative emotions directed at Ray individually, not everyone else here... let alone at all.

"...it seems to have turned out to be a Vihela's favorite development."

　Hold your own size and wait for the hostile presence to emerge.

"Oh, my God!"

　Eventually, such screams spread around.
　No, the Rays did not know, but the screams reached not only the whole forest of Trent, but also the Gillum and... further afield, Abuero.
　It's not surprising to damage the eardrums of those who would normally have heard it.
　However, perhaps because the scream itself was accompanied by magic, no one could break his eardrums when he heard the scream.
　. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
　Nevertheless, it was only around Trent's forest that he was stuck... not so lucky as to have had someone there whom he hated.

"Oh, you're a nuisance,"

　muttering, Ray turned to the forest of Trent... more precisely, to the presence that came out of it.
　It's a giant turtle in a nutshell.
　However, there are countless trees growing from the shell, three heads growing, and sharp tusks growing in the mouth.
　There are six legs in total, and at the end of the tail is something that looks like a giant strawberry or sea urchin, just like a morning star.
　Despite the trees growing about 10 meters high, the highest position of the giant tortoise shell exceeds the height of the tree.
　There are more trees growing from the shell of that height.
　Such a huge tortoise, worthy to be described as looking up, walks straight toward the Lays, breaking through the trees in the forest of Trent.
　The fact that every step you take has a slight tremor around you means the weight of a giant tortoise.
　Ray looks around, wondering if it's OK to walk around destroying the forest of Trent, or what seemed to be the embodiment of it.
　The screams released from the mouth of the giant tortoise have left most of the adventurers here unable to move.
　Considering that this request was made by an adventurer of a certain rank, it would be clear how powerful the screams were.

(Well, I don't think I can use that scream very well.)

　If you can still use a similar scream, you can scream again and again, not just once.
　There must be some reason why it doesn't happen.

(In other words, if you do something about them who are shocked by the screams of those giant tortoises' pre-emptive attacks, you'll still have enough power. Besides, they're not newcomers who've just become adventurers. I must have overcome many dead spots by the time I reached this rankOf course, some of them have no trouble, and that's why they've risen in rank by chance, but it's not very common.
　If that's the case, we should be able to participate in the battle without any problems once we can move, even if we're choked by the screams of giant tortoises.
　When Ray decides so, he thinks a little bit... and eventually, when he can't help but breathe out a little bit, he enhances his magical powers.
　The first person to react to Ray's actions was Reno, who had a magical eye to see the magic.
　Luno himself had more experience in passing through the jaws of death than the adventurers who partied as solo adventurers, and the screams of giant tortoises never stopped him from moving.
　But Slasha, who is partying on a temporary basis, is still very immature compared to the adventurers here, and is naturally stuck in the screams of giant tortoises.
　Luno was trying to manage his partner's condition, but the moment he saw Ray's magical powers all over his body, he couldn't open his eyes as if he had seen them in the sun.
　Ray usually hides his magical powers with the ring of the new moon, but now he deliberately releases them.
　Perhaps because he had a magical eye for magic, Reno was temporarily blinded by Ray's magic.
　Also, Reno isn't the only one who notices Ray's appearance.
　Marina, Vihela, and Seto, as well as those who were still able to move after the screams of giant turtles.
　...though Bune, partying with Ray, was paralyzed by a scream.
　The giant tortoise must be aware of Ray's abnormalities as it moves.
　The giant turtle first appeared to eliminate Ray, a threat to the Trent forest.
　That being the case, I'm sure you won't notice anything unusual about Ray.
　Perhaps the reason why the movement is not so fast is because of the body structure of the giant tortoise.
　Using his six legs, he makes his way towards Ray, shaking the ground step by step.
　Looking at such a giant turtle, Ray concentrates and compresses his magical powers further.
　Ray's enormous magical powers are condensed to the point where they can't be seen or felt by anyone else, such as Luno, before long, they are compressed to the point where they can be visualized.
　Then the next moment... Ray's magical powers are dyed into Ray's attributes and become crimson magic powers that cling to his body.
　Emperor Flame's Red Armour... is Ray's greatest skill.
　This skill also enabled Ray to fight the noise of the Rank S adventurer.
　And... if such skills are suddenly used up close to them, adventurers will have to react to them.
　Adventurers who had been paralyzed by the screams of giant tortoises cannot help but turn their attention to them if something happens right next to them that exceeds the atrophy caused by the screams.
　When the adventurers see Ray ahead, the shock blows away the atrophy of the scream.
　That must have been how shocking he was to see Ray wearing the Emperor's red armor.
　Of course Ray, who was aiming for the effect, should not miss this opportunity.

"Everyone, I'm going to get out of here. It's hard to move in the woods.
"Wait a minute! Are you going to deal with that monster?"

　A adventurer screams at Ray's words.
　Fight such monsters as if they even have the illusion that a mountain is moving.
　I didn't think it was something we could do.
　As long as they are working in guillem, they are naturally confident in their skills.
　But... still, if you ask me if I can deal with such a huge monster, I can't nod honestly.

"... I see. Then only those who think they can fight are fine. Tell Gillum about this otherwise. and I hope you will bring me some reinforcements."

　Saying so, Ray takes only those who decide he can fight away from the forest.
　Some suggested that he should hide behind the trees in the Trent forest and fight, but when he was told that the tree would become Trent, he was convinced that he would head outside the Trent forest, where only giant turtles could concentrate.
　Bune's appearance in the remaining group must have been unavoidable considering Bune's ability.
