Thanks to the Knights, I slept peacefully last night!

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

After a good night's sleep, I stretch out and walk out of the tent.

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

"Yeah, it's a beautiful day!"

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

I looked up and saw an endless blue sky.

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

A perfect day for hunting? I think.

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

As I was looking up at the sky and taking a deep breath, the knights who had restrained the foolish nobleman and brought him out yesterday found me and came to my side.

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

"Good morning!

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

I greeted them cheerfully as usual, and when I thanked them again for their help last night, everyone there smiled.

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

"Good luck, Mr. Mein, even though the outcome of the game has already been decided.

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

　We, the First Knights, will be cheering for you.

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

After receiving these kind words, he told me about what had happened last night.

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

After that, Claude, who was making a big fuss, was brought before the Knight Commander, who was acting in the name of His Majesty, and was given a strict warning and taken into custody until the start of the game.

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

As expected, he put up a fierce resistance, but I would have to charge him with treason. When asked, he reluctantly backed down.

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

Since there was such an exchange, there was a strong possibility that he held a deep grudge against me, and I was warned to be very careful during the game.

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

Finally, it was time for the game to begin.

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

Probably all the participants would spend the next two days in the forest.

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

Of course, they could come back to the base camp to rest, but this would open a gap between them and their opponents.

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

I, of course, do not intend to come back either, as it would greatly affect our chances of winning or losing.

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

Naturally, my opponents will be thinking the same thing.

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

One by one, the nobles, including Claude the Noble Idiot and his fellow nobles, gather at the meeting place.

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

Behind them, a group of very large adventurers follow, each of them holding a weapon firmly in his hand.

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

...... They will be my opponents.

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

I too equip my steel dagger and Lightning Edge and wait for the order to begin.

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

I ignore the fact that Claude has been staring at me with a big grin on his face since .......

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

After the knight commander has explained the game again, each participant is given the storage bag.

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

I'm sure they're going to transfer the materials in their storage bags to those bags after this. ......

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

If everything went according to the plan, the materials of the demons they hunted yesterday would be stored in the "time-lapsed storage bag" they got by cheating.

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

But the storage bags they actually got are "time-lapsed storage bags", so of course the materials must have been damaged even now.

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

With this in mind, I hang the storage bag I received from my waist.

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

"Each one of you, please be fair and do not cheat in the two days of competition!

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

　...... then the game will now begin. Let's start ！！！！."

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

Under the command of the Knight Commander, all the participants hired by the nobles run towards the forest at once.

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

I also turned to the forest with a wry smile, saying "...... be sure not to cheat, but they are already cheating all the time.

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

I was really impressed by the fact that the knights and even the knight commander were smiling bitterly.

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

Well, we haven't been told which demon's materials are worth the highest points.

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

For the time being, is it safe to hunt for the most powerful ones?

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

So, I guess it is better to go deeper into the forest, if we follow the standard way.

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

For now, I don't want to be seen using my skill, so I'll just keep my eyes on my surroundings with 【Aware of Presence - Medium LV3】 at all times.

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

...... Hmm? While I'm saying that, I spot a monster.

None

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

They are ape-like demons.

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

This is the first time I've seen one in person. .......

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

They are certainly more advanced than the forest enemies I usually hunt.

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

Anyway, I'm going to weaken them by taking away their skills as usual.

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

I use [Blocking presence - medium level 3] and attack them at once from behind without being noticed.

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

Ape panicked at the sudden appearance of this enemy, but he was in range and already out of skill.

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

He showed some signs of resistance, but his heart was pierced by a steel dagger and he died.

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

"In this game, there are different points for good or bad dismantling of materials.

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

　When I [appraised] the other adventurers, none of them had [cut]. .......

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

　I have a big advantage with that!"

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

Immediately, he dismantles the pieces with cuts and throws them into the storage bag he was given.

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

Yes, everything is going well.

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

Let's keep going deeper.

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

The next monster we met was a little different from the previous ones.

It's a snake monster! And it's huge! It looks like it's about three meters long.

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

If you get wrapped around something like that, you'll be crushed to death easily. .......

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

And there's something strangely high about it: .......

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

Are you the master of this area by any chance?

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

I'll just pick up some rocks around there and stick the abilities on this guy.

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

......Next is skills.

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

I can guess the effect without looking at it, but it seems to be a very useful skill, doesn't it?

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

Okay, weakening complete!

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

Now, I think I'd like to avoid melee combat for a bit.

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

I'd also like to avoid magic, because you never know where or who is watching. .......

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

Oh, wait! I wonder if this method can afford to be melee?

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

First, use [King's Intimidation] to stop him!

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

Strengthen it with [Strong Arm LV3], approach at once, and cut off its head.

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

The skill that the Orc King had is really unparalleled.

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

With just these skills, he can beat most monsters, can't he?

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

We quickly dismantle the snake, throw it into a storage bag, and continue onward and downward.

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

All the monsters you find along the way are killed in the same way, one by one.

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

......Well, we've come a long way, haven't we?

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

There had been no sign of people around for quite a while, so we may have come to a place we didn't expect to hunt.

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

I remember what His Highness Lewis said.

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

"There's an old legend ...... that a sacred beast lies deep in the forest.

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

Well, it's just a legend, so it can't be true, but as they say, where there is no fire, there is no smoke, so maybe there are strong monsters, if not divine beasts.

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

Well, I don't think this area is so deep that there will be no divine beasts.

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

...... and that's when.

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

A little further away, we hear the cries of monsters and the sounds of battle.

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

Hmm? Other participants?

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

Let's go to ...... and see what's going on.

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

It's not a hostile inspection, but it's not a bad idea to know the other party's strength.

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

I use [Signal Blocking - Medium] and quietly start moving in the direction of the sound.

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

The sight that met my eyes at the destination was something that I had not ...... expected.

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

The first thing that catches my eye is a huge wolf with beautiful purple fur.

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

I can see that its beautiful fur is stained with blood in some places.

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

I wonder if it is the return blood, since it does not seem to be damaged.

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

The next thing I saw was a group of adventurers.

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

They were not among the participants of the game, so they were probably other adventurers hired by the foolish aristocrats.

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

What are they doing deep in the forest, where no one can see them?

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

What is ......? Those adventurers have caught some little wolves. .......

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

Oh? No way. ......!

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

What was the incident that started this game in the first place?

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

Yes, because of the dragon children you captured, enslaved, and sold for a profit.

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

So, this battle that is happening right in front of our eyes is .......

Wasn't the Divine Beast the one who sided with the Humes and protected them when the Humes were about to be destroyed by the Demons a long time ago?

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

Those adventurers! Of all people, you are trying to capture the child of a divine beast to whom the Humeans owe so much!

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

I'm not kidding, this is not good!

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

This is really, really bad!

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

The dragons alone are a hell of a mess. .......

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

If even the gods and beasts invade the town, it could be the end of the human race.

While I'm panicking, things are going from bad to worse.

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

Oh, so you're trying to escape with a child as a hostage.

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

So that means the Shinju-sama can't move either.

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

...... They don't know who the Gods and Goddesses are!

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

Then there's only one thing for me to do.

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

I have to get the kid out of their hands and give him back to the Gods and Beasts.

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

Yes, by the time I made up my mind ...... it was already too late.

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

"Mamanai lunaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

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

The adventurers' selfish words made the god beast roar with rage.

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

The entire forest shakes with the shock, and the surrounding trees shake their branches.

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

The trees around him shake their branches in great shakes. The sense of intimidation must have caused him to lose control of himself in fear.

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

One of the adventurers who had been holding the children swung the dagger in his hand at the beast child.

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

"Kyaaaahhhh......n!"

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

The grief-filled cries of the stabbed child echoed through the ...... forest.
