"Oh... quite a skill for a thief." If he had this skill, he should have been an adventurer, not a thief."

　a series of dagger attacks by thieves
　a thrust, a stab, a feint kick
　Avoiding the attack of the thief who has made such an attack, he fires a counter blow against the last kick, which the thief cannot avoid and falls straight to the ground with a blow from the back of his hand.
　In Vihela's eyes, the man with a decent arm could not really understand why he was a thief.
　It was clear, however, that there was some reason to believe that he had this much skill and was a thief.
　At any rate, the band's destruction was confirmed by the unconsciousness of the remaining bandits.

"Yes, this. You're thirsty, aren't you?"
"Thank you,"

　Marina's glass is filled with cold water.
　It's not the magic item... it's the simple effect of Marina's spirit magic that makes you want to say how much you cooled it this summer.

"But they're all alive,"

　Vichela opens her mouth with a slightly discontented look at Marina's slightly teasing nuance.

"What I like about it is to fight. I'm not particularly a murderer."
"I know. I'm kidding, I'm kidding. ... If this was Ray, I'd be a little less joking."
"Well, Ray has no mercy on thieves." But wouldn't Ray have thought of doing such a serious thing with this band of thieves?"

　As she says so, Marina looks at the bandits lying around her.
　This band of thieves attacked the merchant force, but tried as little as possible to kill guards and merchants.
　Of course, if you do so, you will be reported to the guards, and there is a high possibility that you will be directed to the punitive force.
　Being aware of this and doing so, he was fairly confident in his arms... in fact, his fighting power was convincing to Vichela.

"Yes!"

　As Vihela relaxes after drinking cold water, Bune, who has emerged from the bandits' stronghold, brings some bags.
　The contents of the bag are treasures that the robbers had accumulated in their stronghold.

"Oh, you look happy. Was there something so expensive?"
"Yes!"

　Bune responds to Vihela's words, but Marina just nods her head when she sees them.
　for in Marina's eyes Bune did not seem so pleased.
　Just a few words and expressions as usual.
　It was not at all true, but I didn't think he was happy to see Bune like that.
　But Vichela saw through it and said she was happy, and Vichela nodded back to her words.
　There's no doubt that the two are clearly communicating properly.

"Well... I didn't do anything wrong, but I still saved a good deal of it."

　Vichela says admiringly, looking at the jewels in the bag Bune brought.

"Of course, if they were to kill all the men who attacked them, that would be the kind of resistance that even the merchant force would resist. But if you know that your luggage will be taken away, and your life will be saved, no one will resist it."
"I see. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
"Yes. Of course, some bandits like to kill people. Of course there should be such a band of thieves around Subursta. and if possible, I'd like to beat those bandits first."
"I'm sure you'd better beat such a difficult opponent as soon as possible. but if you think you're as unlucky as those guys, you might be fighting against the Lays."
"If that were the case, I think there would be a lot of trouble. Ray is unrelenting to someone he doesn't like. and if it were a thief, you would not hesitate to raise your hand even if you were a nobleman."

　Marina's words give Vichela a look of wonder...
　In fact, it was easy to imagine the scene.
　That is the scene of the murder of all the robbers.
　...it was actually quite right that Ray and Sett had killed the band of bandits, clean white, but it would be a little later for them to learn about it.





"Huh!"

　Elena wields a Mirage against her fleeing opponent.
　The distance between the long swords was far enough to never reach, but Mirage transforms himself from the long sword into a whip by Elena's magic and dramatically expands the distance.

"Oh, my dear!"

　The bandits, trying to escape Elena, are slashed in the back and fall to the ground.
　It was a near-fatal blow, but perhaps because he was not powerful enough to kill his opponent with one blow, the thief who fell to the ground crawled away and tried to escape… Maybe he had reached his limit.

"d*mn it! Don't run away! If you run away here, you'll die! Look at her! Don't you want to play with such a nice woman?"

　One of the robbers shoots an arrow at Elena with his bow.
　Unlike long swords and spears, arrows do not change their power by using the same bow.
　Of course, the arm has to do with whether or not you can get it right, and if you can get it right, where you aim.
　Such a thief's arrow goes straight to Elena's foot, not to her torso.
　He must have thought it was a waste to kill a beautiful woman as good as Elena, as he cried out to those around him.
　The reason why I don't know General Elena is because she's a thief from the countryside, or because she doesn't even want to gather information.
　but the robber's arrow went straight to Elena."

"There's no way I'll make you do it!"

　When a figure emerges, screaming, he knocks down the arrow with his axe.
　It's Arla with Power Axe.
　Some robbers watching the scene... and the robbers who shot the arrow doubt their eyes.
　If this had been done with weapons such as daggers and daggers, we would have understood this case.
　This band of thieves does not have that much skill, but there are still a few who can do the same around Subursta.
　But... it's only possible because it's a well-rounded dagger or dagger, and it's impossible to believe that you can imitate it with a weapon like Arra's Power Ax.
　But now that I've seen the scene in front of me, I can't help believing it.

"You're lying, aren't you?"

　I can't believe it, but if they ask me if I can accept it, the robbers won't be able to nod honestly.
　The truth is that I don't want to believe that I have to fight against such a strong opponent...

"There are two enemies! No matter how good you are, there are only two of you in the end! Then we should win in the end!"

　A skilled member of the band of thieves screams so, but even if that's the case, it also means that the number of thieves who will eventually be knocked down by the end of the day will be considerable.
　. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
　No, that's why they're robbers... or, to be exact, robbers.
　At any rate, the underlying premise is that they will be thrown away, and they will immediately recover their morale by following the words that if they all play together, they will win.

"What a pleasant bunch,"
"Yes, but wouldn't it mean that morale rises quickly if something happens?"

　With Power Axe, Arra replies to Elena.
　Although it was not the sort of act that Arra would normally do, Arra still enjoyed the situation from the bottom of her heart.Arra doesn't have any particular desire to go on a rampage or to trample down a weak opponent.
　. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
　Of course, when Elena was travelling to the country of Lavrellina and acting separately from Arra, she would use a pair of oves to have a conversation every night.
　Still, meeting across pairs of ovens and being on the side in this way are very different.
　Being able to work with Elena gave her a great deal of joy.
　If Ray had been here, he would have thought, 'I'm so excited.'

"Anyway, it's easy for me to see the enemy come this way instead of running away..."

　With his sharp voice, a whip-like Mirage cuts off the head of a bandit holding a long sword in his hand.
　However, few would be frightened if their comrades were killed at one blow, perhaps because of the bandits' cries that they would win if they were caught in the crowd.
　The other bandits near the murdered bandits are frightened, but when they see the other bandits advancing regardless, they decide that they will be seen as cowards if they retreat, and force their way with a shout.

(What did you say about this... was the bravery of a man? If Ray's explanation was correct, it would be appropriate.)

　Thinking this way, Elena wields a series of mirages at the bandits approaching her.
　The whiplash of Mirage can't be helped by a common weapon, such as a long sword or spear.
　That's what it is, in some cases, even longer than a bow.
　There's no way a mere thief could manage against Elena with such a weapon in her hand.
　The number of bandits will decrease at an accelerated rate due to the successive wave of Mirage.
　When they saw Elena, they must have changed their minds, thinking that it would be good to make a sacrifice to get this woman.
　It's a pity to have a beautiful woman named Elena, but I don't think it's a good substitute for the disappearance of the band of thieves, including myself.
　In the first place, once they die, it doesn't matter what happens to women.
　and as a result, not the legs or arms, but the deadly blow to the head."

"I told you I couldn't have made you said.

　All the arrows shot at Elena are knocked off by Arra with Power Ax in her hand.
　Showing that the blow had been not accidental but forceful, Arra glared murderously at the robbers targeting Elena.
　I can't allow myself to hurt my beloved Elena.
　That's what I'

"I don't mind. You can go."

　Elena, who understands Arra's feelings, kicks the ground at once and attacks the robbers with the bow in hand.
　If that were the case, Elena would have to defend herself against the attacks that Arra had been defending, but in the first place, no matter how many of these thieves could have done, Elena could not have been harmed.
　In that sense, Arla could be described as overprotective.
　But it's certainly sickening to keep being attacked just because you're not hurt, and naturally you're dealing with it.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

　The bandits were on their way to Elena, but some of them were easily destroyed by Arra's powerful aces.
　If he had just attacked the bandits around him, many of them would have died, but this time Arra was aiming for the bandits' leaders.
　Breaking through the band of thieves, Arra pushes straight at the archers.
　Naturally, the robbers attacked him, but the arrows were knocked off one after another by Power Axe... it did not take long until the band was wiped out.
