　Hans, Claire, and Alice left home to go on their third dungeon quest this month.

　Hans left home with his sisters, and on the way to the workshop (atelier), he remembered Roland's words.

(Not enough mercy ...... or)

　Reflecting on the meeting.

'Roland. Could you be a little more specific?"

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

　Leon said.

'We're getting better at fighting 'white wolves', and when you say we're not relentless enough, how exactly do we do that?'

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

I agree. For example, when we fought the "White Wolf" in the last dungeon exploration, that scene when Elio and Rick pushed back the enemy's offensive. If the rear guard had jumped out from behind to pursue the fleeing enemy, they could have inflicted more damage.

I see. The rear guard jumps out.

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

Yes," he said. To strike a blow to the enemy, it is not enough for the vanguard to provide solid support. The work of the rear guard becomes important. It is a difficult task because the danger increases if the thinly armored rear guard moves forward. ......

(That order. (He didn't name names, but I'm sure it was probably directed at me. It was up to me to determine if I could inflict fatal damage to "The Wise Man's Crown" (......)).

Hans!"

　Hans was startled by Will's voice calling him.

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

　He found himself at the meeting place.

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

Will or ......."

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

There is still time before the search begins. Can we talk a little?"

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

　They decided to sit on a bench in the plaza until the order was given.

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

What do you think of what Roland said at the meeting?"

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

　Will asked.

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

'Are you referring to the lack of mercy, ......?'

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

Yeah, that."

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

I know. He didn't name names, but the bottom line is that Roland isn't happy with the way I work.

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

Ours.

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

Will?

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

It's our fault that we, the rear guard, can't win the game while Erio and the other vanguard are pushing back the White Wolf's attacks.

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

Will, what's your take on this?　What are we missing?"

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

I guess so."

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

　Will made a little thoughtful gesture and then began to speak.

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

I've seen the way the Guardians of the Magical Tree fight, and it seems to me that they take risks differently than we do.

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

Risk?"

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

Yes," he said. From our point of view, they are very conscious of trying to get in front of us, to the point where it feels a little dangerous. But in the off-island guilds, even the rear guard may have to be that forward-thinking.

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

I see. The awareness of taking risks and moving forward.

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

　Hans thought for a moment, then turned to Will.

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

Will. "Will, I'm going to try to be more forward in my search this time. I'm prepared to take some risks.

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

Are you sure?　It's double the workload and double the responsibility, okay?"

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

I'm ready.

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

Good. If you insist, I'll go along with you. Let's go directly to Roland together."

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

　They told Roland that they wanted to raise awareness of the pursuit.

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

　Roland gave his permission.

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

　However, he did so on the condition that they fulfill their original roles, such as scouting and supporting the vanguard.

　After checking her own unit, Yuffine, accompanied by Lelio and Shakuma, looked toward the "Grand Alliance," the enemy side.

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

The "Grand Alliance" was about to complete its preparations, with no particular change in armament or strategy from the last time.

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

I thought they were going to try something, but they didn't come up with anything special.

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

　Lelio said.

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

I wonder if they couldn't come up with anything effective?"

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

　Shakma said.

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

I don't know. We don't know what's out there yet. Stay on your guard. ......"

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

　Just as Yuffine was about to say this, she bumped into Ian.

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

Reyes!

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

Shakma, Lelio, we're coming back."

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

　Yuffine, accompanied by the two men, tried to return to her own camp.

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

Reyes. Wait!　I need to talk to you. ......"

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

I don't."

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

It's a later life." Please listen to me."

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

I don't like it. I'm not talking to you anymore.

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

Wait a minute. If we don't do something, it's just what the White Wolf wants. We need to work together here. ......

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

　Yuffine looked at Ian with a cruel smile on her face.

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

Hmph. You're the only ones who should be worried about being attacked by the White Wolf. That's what happens when you keep playing tricks. It's your own fault. Come on, you two, let's go. We have to finish our last preparations.

　Ian's shoulders slump as he is brushed off by Yuffine.

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

（Ian's shoulders slump. (No good...) Ian's shoulders slumped. As Neil said, we have no choice but to bet on a joint front between "White Wolf" and "Dragon's Fires.)

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

　Ian glanced at Yuffine.

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

(The current peace negotiations should be able to get her to let her guard down a little. We've done our best. All that remains is to wait for fate.)

　After Ian had been treated, Euphine went to report to Roland on her feet.

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

I told him. I told him that I would not work with you.

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

　Yuffine said with a good smile.

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

'...... I see.'

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

　Roland does not look pleased, but rather thoughtful. Yuffine scowled.

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

(Ian is an expert in gathering information. Ian is an expert in gathering information, and he should already know the contents of the "Spirit Alliance" meeting. And yet, he is negotiating for peace at this time?)

Yufineh. Be ready to cast 'wide-area recovery magic' as soon as you enter the dungeon. Something might happen."

　After that, the "Grand Alliance" finished its preparations and solemnly entered the forest at the foot of the mountain.

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

　A little later, the "Spirit Alliance" also entered the dungeon (this time, the "Grand Alliance" was able to complete its preparations more quickly than usual because it had significantly fewer people than last time. (This time, the "Grand Alliance" had a much smaller number of people than last time, so they were able to prepare more quickly than usual.)

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

　Roland and his team proceeded steadily through the forest at the foot of the mountain for a while.

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

　Sporadic small fry monsters attacked them, but they cleared them up without difficulty and resumed their search.

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

The speed at which the "Grand Alliance" was advancing was so fast that they could not catch up with it, but it was not a big problem.

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

　We could continue our search as before.

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

Once they reached the "Metal Line," the speed of the "Grand Alliance" would slow down anyway.

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

　There are plenty of chances to rewind.

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

　That's what everyone thought.

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

　It was not until they reached the first plateau of the "Metal Line" that they changed their minds.

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

　Suddenly, a unit of the Grand Alliance deployed in front of the vanguard unit.

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

　They were stationed on the plain, ready and waiting.

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

　They attacked in one fell swoop in front of the panicked "Spirit Alliance.

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

　Although they managed to withstand the first blow, they were met with a powerful attack by Neil, a warrior clad in "magic-work" sword armor.

The unit was forced to flee when it was hit by the "Attack Grant" and Glenn's "Fire Blast Magic".

After kicking out the vanguard of the "Spirit Alliance," Neil and his men ran down the hill at the speed of the wind and attacked furiously toward the main group with Roland.
