138-Episode 10: You may die if you are unlucky



From now on, you're going to have to fight this girl.

 The female examiner, Elius, who seems to be a demon trainer, says happily.
 In short, they will be judged on whether they pass or fail by watching them actually fight the demon.

"This, with such a big demon...?
How do you expect me to fight this...?

 The candidates backed away as if frightened.

'It's okay. I've given you firm orders not to kill them. If you are unlucky, you might die, but well, adventurers are always in danger, aren't they?

 The female examiner looked extremely happy and added something deliberately frightening.

'Boer, are you ready?'
Buh-hoo, buh-hoo, buh-hoo!

 The boar demon called Boa - the power boa seems to be very excited, probably because there are many first-time humans in the area.

 ........Are you okay?
 I don't seem to be able to discipline myself properly.

So, let's start the second test.

 '' the female examiner declared, and the next thing she knew, she was slapping the powerboa's body.

'Bufo!'
'What? Hey--

 Suddenly, the power boa goes out of control and dexterously throws the female examiner away with its thick nose.
 She was slammed against the wall of the underground training area and passed out.

''What?''

 The examiner was suddenly attacked by a subordinate demon, leaving the candidates stunned.

''Bufo-oh!

 The power boa stood up on its hind legs alone and let out a loud yell as if to declare its freedom.
 It then slammed its front legs into the ground with great force.
 The impact alone caused the building to shake violently.

''Dude, what's going on here!
'I thought you were supposed to be disciplining them properly!

 The candidates scream and turn their backs on the powerbore and try to run away at once.

 But that's the worst possible decision.
 Most demons have a tendency to attack fiercely those who try to escape, and they are usually faster than humans.
 Therefore, they will not succeed in escaping first.

 If you really want to escape from a monster like this power boa, it is better to somehow avoid the initial rush and then try to escape.
 That way, we'll have a somewhat better chance of success.

 Sure enough, the power boa was going to run at once toward the candidates who had turned away first.

 Zang.

 Well, I cut its head off before that.

 The power boa's huge body collapsed.
 A large amount of blood poured out of the severed surface and dyed the ground red.

''Hey! What are you doing to me?

 A high-pitched voice hit my earbuds.
 I turned around to see the female examiner who should have been blown away by the power boa earlier, and she was about to run up to me with a change in her blood.

''Boa, are you okay! And it's not okay by any means!

 She turns blue in front of the power boa, which is no longer the breath of a bug.

'I thought you were fainting?'
It was an act!
Acting?
''I was going to see how the Squire Demon would deal with the sudden outburst of disregard for the trainer's orders! It's more tense that way, and more importantly, it's interesting and pleasurable to see the candidates panicking!

 This female examiner has quite a twisted personality.

'Hey! What are you going to do? How much money do you think it took to train him to this point! I was going to make good money on that from now on!

 The female examiner screams hysterically.
 It seems that she's more worried about the money than the life of her followers.
 She's a terrible trainer.

"Speak of the devil-- It's nothing, Death.

Compensation ... yes, you'll have to pay for it!
'That's not what you're saying. It's usually worse if you weren't expecting to be beaten by a candidate.
'I mean, the Boers are a Danger Level A demon! There's no way the examiners can beat me!

 I'm telling you that I wasn't aware of that.

'Well, whatever it is, all you have to do is treat it, right?
What? Treatment? I know it when I see it! Totally deadly! I can't be cured!
I think I can fix this one just fine.
You can fix it yourself, if you insist! Even if it's a hypochondria, of course it's impossible!
Hmm. Let's try it then. --The Perfect Heel.

 It was too loud, so I quickly cast a healing spell.
 Then, as I looked at it, the power boa's wounds were closing up.

''Buhu?''

 The powerbore whipped up as if nothing had happened.

'It's all right now,'
"Huh!

 The moment it saw me, the power boa started running backwards at a terrific rate.
 It's surprisingly fast even when backed up.
 As it is, it hits the outer wall of the training grounds from its buttocks and shakes itself shakily.

 Apparently, he's afraid of me.
 Maybe it can't be helped because I'm the one who was almost killed but I've healed him properly.

''Lie.........healed.......? I'm sorry, was that healing magic...? And to heal a wound like that in an instant...
More importantly, what are you going to do about the test?
Ha. Well well Boer, can we fight again now?

 The female examiner approached the powerbore as she asked that question.

'Bufoosh!'

 Then the power boa started to ramp up again, as if it were excited.

'Hey, just calm down! Enough with the acting!
Boohoo! Buford!

 Despite his best efforts to soothe her, the power boa didn't seem to calm down.
 On the contrary, he attacked her again with the tip of his nose.

''Geez! What the hell is going on?
Boohoo! Buford!

 It seems that he has realized his master's true nature and has stopped doing what he says.

 In any case, this would make it impossible for her to continue the exam.
 While the power boa was attacking her, the examiners sneaked out of the training area, hoping not to eat the rolls.
