What was it, sir?　That was.....
　With a dubious expression on his face, Lil Pop ran up to Jalbin.
　Jalbin smiled at Lilpop with a smirk.
''This is a capsule magical beast specially made by big sister Jambalea~. Under the instructions of the messenger, it can materialize from the capsule and return to the capsule at will. And you know what........
　As he said this, Jalvin handed the capsule that was back in his hand to Lilpop.
　As Lilpop looked into it, he saw the Mikrazaurus that had appeared earlier and the unidentified demonic beast that had disappeared while being assembled by the Mikrazaurus.
　The two bodies didn't twitch in an upright and immobile position inside the capsule.
''So the demonic beasts inside the capsule go into a pseudo-sleep state. That's why they don't flail about.''
　To Jalvin's explanation, even Lil Pop nodded at Jalvin's explanation, looking impressed with the partition.

　After that, although Jalvin examined this magical beast.
You've never seen a Hexenbiest like this before...
　The only conclusion I could come to was that.
　Therefore, they decided to take this unidentified demonic beast back to the frontier city of Liberty Combe as it was, and asked the creator of the underground labyrinth (Dungeon Clearerator), Jambalea, to investigate again.
　After that, the group led by Lil' Pop searched the area again.
　However, it seems that there was only one of these unidentified demonic beasts, and they did not encounter any other individuals.
''.........Although, it's hard to see how there is only one demonic beast that has grown to that size......it must have drifted from somewhere.......or lurked somewhere else......''
　Lil' Pop has been pondering in the operation tent.
　Every day, they continue to expand their search area to clean up the area of Old Kaitakai Village, but they never receive any reports of the discovery of the ancient monster tribe.

　It's been half a month since Lilpop and his team set up a pace camp in the old settlement village.
　As a result of their thorough cleaning up of the area, there were almost no more encounters with magical beasts within a 1km radius of the Old Frontier Village.

　In response to this, Sarah was dispatched from the frontier city of Liberty Combe.

　Sarah is a salamander and is capable of using dark magic.
　After arriving at the base camp, Sarah used her summoning magic to create a large number of skeletons and had them build a fence around a 1km radius of the old frontier village.
　They would cut down trees in the territory and use them to put up fences about 2 meters high.
　The land where the trees were cut down was reclaimed to make it easier to make it into residential areas and fields later.
　At the same time, the damaged and dilapidated houses in the old frontier village were removed and some new houses were built there.
　The houses were used as lodging facilities for the troops who would later be stationed in the old settlement.
　The bone men could only work at night when the sun was not up.
　Because of this, nocturnal magical beasts sometimes appeared at the work site, but in order to deal with such situations, Sarah had also summoned several bone knights, the higher species of bone humans, and had sent three of them to guard the surroundings in pairs.
　Thanks to this, all the attacking monsters were exterminated by these bone knights.
　During the daylight hours, Lil' Pop's unit took over the task and continued to search for these monsters in the surrounding area.
　In the meantime, Groba, a golem tribe member, was taking the lead in creating the fences and other structures.
　As the golem tribe's golem, Groba was able to do the heavy lifting and was able to work at a fairly high speed during the daytime as well.

　It's been a week since Sarah arrived.
　The fence was almost complete, and gates and watchtowers had been installed in various places.
Hmm.........I guess that's enough work for this place.
　Lil Pop nodded with satisfaction as he looked around the finished fence.
　Beside him, Goopop walked with him.
　Since the fence was already completed, Lilpop would only let Goupop accompany him when he was guarding the interior of the old frontier village.
　He has always said that he wants to join the guards and help himself and his Googus in the future, and Lil' Pop also wanted to give him a chance to learn how to be a police officer.
Mom, it takes a lot of energy to be a police officer.
　Goopop wore upper body armor that he wasn't normally used to wearing, and he moved around with a large shield on his back.
　In the event of an emergency, a large shield squad of recruits and young guardsmen were supposed to come to the front and build a defensive wall, so the relevant guardsmen were required to move with the large shield.
　The lillpop had allowed Googs to experience that step that everyone else had taken.
''Isn't that right, Googlyph? I don't care how much it's your daughter and Googus, I'm not going to treat you any differently. I'll do my best from scratch.
Ha-ha, I know, Mom.
You are to be called captain in this building, are you not?
'Yes!　S-Sorry, Captain.
　Goopop takes Lilpop's words and salutes him with a bicep.
　Lillpop looks at Goulpop with a sidelong glance.
Enough chatter, sir. You are to keep a watchful eye on your surroundings, and especially on the men on the other side of the fence.
　Saying that, Lil Pop hurried ahead.
　Goupop and the guards who were following him followed behind.

　Then another week passed.

　After confirming that the inside of the fence was secure, Lil Pop decided to leave only a portion of his troops in the old frontier village and send the majority of them back.
　Initially, Lil Pop said he would stay behind.
Well, you're in good hands with me.
　Sarah offered to continue the work of summoning the Bone Man.
　With that, Lilpop decided to leave the remaining troops to Sarah, while he would command the frontier city of Liberty Combe's returning troops.
''The threat to this area has been eliminated, but we're still on our way home. Don't let your guard down until everyone has returned home.
　Lilpop was making the rounds among the troops preparing to return, shouting that he was.
　
　The next morning, at dawn, the returning troops left.
　Just as Lilpop had said, after leaving the old frontier village and advancing for a while, they encountered quite a few demonic beasts.
　Nevertheless, Lilpop and the others, who hadn't lost their vigilance, defeated these with ease.
　The human bat tribe's Vambina was alerted while emitting sound waves around them, while the human hawk tribe's Hawkeye tribe's Hawkeye led a squad of birds and spotted the surroundings from the sky.
　The human leopard tribe's Windor led the fast-footed tribe's guards ahead of them to make sure the direction of travel was safe.
　Once the monster beasts attacked, Groba of the golem race and Mugana of the demon race led their own troops to deal with them.

　Thanks to the success of the troops led by the elite troops, Lil Pop had little to do on the return trip home.
　However, Lilpop was watching the elite unit's activities with a satisfied look on his face, while he and Goupop were devoted to providing logistical support.

　Soon, the walls of the frontier city of Liberty Combe began to come into view in front of the group.
''You're home at last, Mom.
　Goopop, sitting with Lil Pop at the wheelhouse, said happily.
'When we get back, Goo-Pop will be lectured firmly by the Googus for following you around on his own.
Oh, yeah.
That was the plan, wasn't it?

　Hearing Lilpop's words, Goopop had his head in his hands, frowning.
　I'm sure you'll be able to find a lot more information on this topic.

　The walls of the frontier city of Liberty Combe are now right in front of us.
