　The march of the "Grand Alliance" through the forest at the foot of the mountain was slow.

Hey! Can't you run faster?

　Neil chided his troops irritably.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The guys from the Arsenal of the Spirits are already a long way ahead of us," he said.

The "Grand Alliance" gathered at the plaza in front of the dungeon at the same time as the "Arsenal of Spirits" alliance, but they were already far behind.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　First, there was a slight mishap in the troop formation stage, which prevented them from entering the dungeon at the scheduled time.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

In the forest at the foot of the mountain, they had trouble forming a coherent formation whenever they encountered a monster.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The monsters on the right wing and in the center, where the "Wise Man's Crown" was still in charge, were cleared without difficulty, but on the left wing, where there were many local adventurers, there was no sign of an end in sight, even though several tens of minutes had passed since the battle had begun.

The left wing, where many of the local adventurers were located, showed no sign of finishing the battle, even though several dozen minutes had passed since the start of the battle. Enough or I'll leave you here!"

Neil, calm down."

　Glen, the elder of the two, said to him as if to correct him.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The dungeon search has just begun. If you are in too much of a hurry to get going, you will run out of breath.

But," he said. At this rate, the "Arsenal of Spirits" alliance will reach the mining site before we do.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

No need to be hasty. There are plenty of good ore mines in this dungeon. First of all, we need to establish ties with local adventurers. Have you forgotten what happened last year?　Last year, too, we proceeded without sufficient cooperation with the local guilds, and as a result, we fell apart in the latter half of the year. It is imperative to wash the alliance's issues while the monsters are still weak in the early stages and optimize them for the middle to end of the game. In this dungeon, ......"

　As Glen was about to say this, the cry of a "fire dragon (Fafnir)" ripping through the sky echoed through the air.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Soon after, angry shouts and the sound of weapons clanging in battle could be heard.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　When Glenn turned his head to the sky, he saw the "breath of fire," which seemed to be emitted by "Fafnir," and the arrows fired by the archer flying back and forth.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Is that the ...... 'Arsenal of Spirits' fighting?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

They've already reached the Metal Line.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Glenn looks incredulous.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(That's ridiculous. He's going too fast, no matter how much he tries. They can't maintain their equipment and status at such a high speed. Have you abandoned the game?)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The sounds of battle did not last long.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The "Arsenal of Spirits" alliance took out the "Metal Line" monster mixed unit with unbelievable deftness.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　There was not the slightest sign of an unreasonable advance.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But even so, Glen still could not believe it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Common sense inevitably refused to comprehend the events in front of him.

(The only thing to watch out for on this island should be the Thieves' Guild. (But then again, ......)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Hey. Isn't that a quirk?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Ian gave Neil an earful.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The island's adventurers are a bit of a shifty bunch," Ian said. If the "Arsenal of Spirits" alliance is too close to us, it will be bad for our face. Some adventurers might even be swayed by the other side.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　At Ian's advice, Neil's patience ran out.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He puts magic into his wand.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Neil!　What are you doing?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I don't think this is the time to be saving any more time," he said. I'm going to fly. Agility!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

How can we incorporate the strength of the "Guardians of the Magic Tree" into the "Arsenal of Spirits" alliance? That's what we have to do this time.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Roland said this prior to the dungeon entry.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Leon, Hans, and Will. The Guardians of the Magical Tree are still unfamiliar with volcanic dungeons," Roland said before entering the dungeon. If you encounter Fafnir in the Metal Line, you are to set the example of how to defeat him.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

All right, man.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yufine, Shakuma. The adventurers on this island are not very good at being outside adventurers. I don't think this is likely to happen, but when you have to fight the 'Wise Man's Crown,' I want you to take the lead."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, sir.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

No matter how carefully you prepare, there will always be unforeseen circumstances in the dungeon. Each time this happens, we will be forced to make improvements and fine-tune our approach, so every guild should be proactive in voicing their opinions."

「「「「「 yes 」」」」」

　And in the dungeon.

"Carla, 'Fafnir the Fire Dragon' is coming!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Jeff said.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'I'm on it!　Huh."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Carla followed Jeff and showered the low-flying "Fire Dragon (Fafnir)" with "Kaiten Sword Dance".

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(Ugh. Can you cut it?)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Carla is startled by the new sword's cutting ability.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　With just one slash, the sword bites deeply into the skin of Fafnir, which normally requires multiple cuts to pass through, and almost reaches the bone.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Thanks to this, Carla missed the technique with too much momentum and almost lost her landing position.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Cecil, who was standing behind her, rushed to finish off "Fafnir.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What are you doing, Carla? You missed the shot, didn't you?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm sorry. I got a little out of hand. ......"

(Wayne guy, what kind of slashing sword are you going to give me? If he does a bad "Kaiten Kenbai", he'll fail to defeat him.)

　Elio was under attack from "Rock Fang" at another location.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It is extremely difficult to completely defend against the attacks of "Rock Fang," which has high agility.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, Erio was about to do it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(Normally, I'd be okay with taking damage, but if you want to be an A-class shield user, you have to be able to kill the enemy's power perfectly.)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Erio watches closely for the "Rock Fang," which moves in small increments to seek an opening, and tries to find the right moment to strike.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Rock Fang" jumped at him.

（Now!)

　Elio holds up his shield to defend against "Rock Fang's" claw attack.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, he could not kill the impact completely and felt his equipment and status being cut down.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(Heck, no?)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Elio glanced back at Roland and shook his head.

(d*mn. Again.)

　Hans was chasing a "wyvern".

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

（I can't shoot as fast as Alice or shoot as many times as Claire. ) So, to get to A class, I have to aim for the power of the "magic shot" and ...... a hundred hits!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Hans unleashes a "magic shot" surrounded by flames, but is unable to shoot down the "flying dragon (wyvern)" with a single shot.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(d*mn. It's no good. The shooting motion of "Magic Shot" is always delayed. I have to concentrate more.)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Will was destroying the enemy with "blast magic" from behind the battle lines of his allies.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The blast that rolled out was one larger than usual.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

He said, "Wow. It's amazing. Big brother.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm not sure I want to go back to the same place. That's great. This cane. Looks like Wayne's guy did a good job. But ......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(In the current battle, we could have defeated the enemy more efficiently. We had to get into position faster and create more blasts in the right places. Besides ......)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Will tightened his grip on his staff.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(It should be able to produce more power. (This cane that Wayne made for me should be able to do more.)

　Roland looked around the entire battlefield, especially watching the work of Elio, Hans, Will, and Carla.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He had told the four of them to prioritize their growth, even if it meant putting aside some of their unit's needs.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

（I can see that all four of them have more desire than before, and the will to be A-class is real," he said. (At this rate, they will naturally improve their skills with more experience, and when they encounter A-class monsters, they will not hesitate to hit them.)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Carla, I'm going to go for another 'Fafnir' dragon. This time, you have to finish it off with a single blow.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Jeff made a move to draw the "Fire Dragon (Fafnir)".

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Carla followed suit.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(With the new weapon, it is difficult to decide on the "Kaiten Ken Dance". Then here is ...... "Swordsmanship"!)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　A flash.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　With a single stroke, Carla sliced the thick neck of the fire dragon (Fafnir) in two.

　While the locals took the lead in fighting the monsters, the "Guardians of the Magic Tree" stayed in the background and watched the battle.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Roland had told them to stay behind and watch the local group fight until they got used to the monsters in the "volcano dungeon.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Rick, too, had been behind the scenes ever since he entered the dungeon and had been doing his best to stay in the rear guard, but when he saw Carla slash the "Fire Dragon (Fafnir)," he finally reached the end of his patience.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

He finally ran out of patience when he saw Carla slash at "Fafnir. But when he saw Carla slash at Fafnir, he finally reached the end of his patience. I can't stand it any longer. Lelio, we are going to hunt Fafnir too.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm not sure. Yes, that's right. Let's do it.

　Lelio, with his quick feet, takes up a position and shoots the "Fire Dragon (Fafnir)" far away.

　Jeff rolled his eyes.

　Rick casts "Agility Grant" on himself, and despite his heavy armor, he overtakes Lelio at the speed of wind and catches the claws of the swooping "Fire Dragon (Fafnir)" with his "Shield Defense" and then disposes of them with his "Sword Technique.

(He is a high-level user of support magic, shield defense, and swordsmanship. He's an A-class magic knight, too.)

　Leon judged Rick as such.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Encouraged by Rick and Lelio, the archers and warriors of the "Guardians of the Magic Tree" began to challenge the "Fire Dragon (Fafnir)" one after another.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Each of them hunts "Fafnir" by making use of their unique skills and stats.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Leon observed their fighting style carefully.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

（I see. They are the strongest team in the "City of Adventurers". Even though they have only been in the volcano dungeon for a short time, they have mastered the technique of defeating the "Fafnir" perfectly. But ......, is it my imagination?　(Doesn't there seem to be that much difference between our movements and those of the "Guardians of the Magic Tree"?)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Leon looked around at his troops.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(Are we already at the level of those guys from off the island?　(No, no way. ......)

As the "Arsenal of Spirits" alliance progressed, the monsters grew in strength.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The local adventurers and the "Guardians of the Magical Tree" began to compete with each other to defeat the "Fire Dragon (Fafnir)," and it became a battle for the prey.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

As the "Guardians of the Magic Tree" danced forward, local adventurers would overtake them and take up positions in front.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Then the adventurers of the "Guardians of the Magic Tree" moved even further ahead, and the formation of the group lengthened.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(Hey, hey, hey, isn't this a little bit bad?)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Leon sees the heated competition for defeat and begins to feel impatient.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

（It's still early in the game, and we can't keep going this fast. We have a battle with the "White Wolf" on the way back. I think we should save our energy for a bit here. ...... No, but ......)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Leon glanced at the "Guardians of the Magic Tree".

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(Am I really allowed to say such a thing?　The "Guardians of the Magic Tree" is also a high-level guild from the outside. If we interfere in a strange way and things get sour, there is no way we can recover. (No, but ......)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Leon now looks at the local adventurers.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(The locals, who usually hide easily behind outside guilds, are now more competitive than ever. That in itself is a good thing. (That in itself is a good thing, but ......, if things continue as they are, you can see that the locals and the outsiders will get into trouble again.)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Another local adventurer passed the "Guardian of the Magic Tree" and took the lead.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The line would be further thinned out.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(What are we going to do?　If things continue as they are, the alliance could fall apart. Someone has to stop this trend. But who?　(There is no one here who can talk to and convince both locals and outsiders. ......)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Leon, Euphine. Tell the troops to stop."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Roland said.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'That's it for today's search. Start getting ready for encampment."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Hearing this, Leon was relieved.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(You guys are so quintessential, you put in a good interval at the right time. I can cool down for now.)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　With a single word from Roland, the "Arsenal of Spirits" alliance set up camp on a small nearby hill, even though the sun was still high in the sky, and began to prepare for encampment.
