388-356 Get out of the forest area (5)

Let's try another spell for next time.

Copy that.

Right.

With Haruka's words, the decision was made to retreat.

In fact, it would be difficult to even cut the roots, let alone the trunk, when the "space division" was ineffective.

We retreated little by little, searching for a magic that would work and experimenting.

"Cutter Storm!

The first spell to be unleashed was Haruka's.

A huge tornado formed around Elder Trent and completely covered its zenith.

This is the most extensive magic I've ever seen.

It's a great way to make sure you're getting the most out of your money.

I'm not sure what to say.

Did you do it?

I didn't do it.

It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.

In the event that you have any kind of questions regarding where and how to use the internet, you can call us at the web site.

The roots, which are driven deep into the ground every time I move, keep my legs and feet (?) stable. The roots, which are driven deep into the ground as we move, keep our legs and feet (?) stable and do not seem to fall down.

After a while, what emerged from the tornado was a rather slim Elder Trent with its thin branches cut off and about 70% of its leaves gone.

It's ...... unclear if it's been damaged.

"Tsk. I used 80% of my magic.

I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not, but it's a good idea.

I'm not sure what to do.　I'm not sure what to say.

I'm not sure what to make of it.

I'm not sure if it's a good idea, but it's a good idea.

You'll be able to get a lot more than just a pair of shoes.

Unfortunately, he or she has a lot of legs.

He or she has a lot of legs, unfortunately, and they don't stop him or her from shaking a little when the explosion occurs.

"Flame Missile".

I half-heartedly attempted to burn it, but...

Oh, no.

It's a live tree.

I aimed at the upper half of the tree, where the leaves were thicker, but I only blew off a few branches, and the fire didn't start.

You'd have to pour oil on it.

What do we do now?　We're running out of space.

True to Toya's words, we kept moving back and were already near the edge of the square.

And the damage to the Elder Trent was ...... almost hopeless.

It helps that the Elder Trent is a slow attacker, not a rapid attacker, but in a way it is a way to take advantage of the characteristics of this area.

But in a way, it's also a way to take advantage of the characteristics of this area. If you're cornered in the forest, you'll have to deal with the torrents and covert monsters that exist there at the same time.

"Last. Yuki, Nao, there's a pit behind you.

Yeah!

"...... 'Pitfall'!

I aimed at the roots of the Elder Trent's back, the part that supported its massive body, and channeled my magic power to the extent that it would not affect the transition, but...

It's deeper than I thought!

No!

The pit is not Elder Trent itself, but a magic that affects the ground.

I've read that it works well even if the Elder Trent's resist ability is high, but what I didn't expect was how deep the Elder Trent's roots are.

The roots of the Elder Trent were so deep that Toya's head would have fit through the pit, but the roots extended further down.

I was a little hopeful that it might collapse if it lost about a third of its support, but it hardly shook at all.

...... This is impossible. Retreat!

"Yes!

This time, I'll wait and see.

There was no point in sticking around in this situation.

We'll turn our backs on Trent and run for it.

"Ai-shal-ri-tan!

Toya, we're leaving you!

I hasten to use my transference magic on Toya, who is pointing at Elder Trent.

We had to flee back to Rafan as quickly as possible.

I've been working on a new project for a while.

It's been a while since we left Elder Trent.

We were coming back to that place again.

Of course, I'm not talking about that day or a few days later.

We've spent a good deal of time and money preparing for this, because it seems impossible to deal with magic alone.

I made custom-made weapons that would be effective against the torrents, trained with them, and bought all kinds of items. ...... If I couldn't kill it, I would be in a huge deficit.

If you can't kill it, you're in the red.

Even if you can kill it, you will still be in the red in some cases. You can't even afford normal torrent materials.

But still, I want to kill it.

That's why...

Gargoyle and now a specialized weapon.

It's no use. It's too much to ask. I'm resourceful.

Haruka shrugs at Toya, who seems to be unhappy that she can't use only her signature weapon, her sword, to deal with the situation.

But if it's not a problem to carry, and if it's beyond what your skill level can handle, then it's not wrong to use a weapon that suits the enemy.

This time, Toya and Mary are carrying huge axes that look like something a dwarf would carry.

It looks like it could chop down a small tree with a single blow.

When they came here, they tried it on a rock golem, and it cut its body in half with a single blow.

It's that powerful, but it's also very heavy.

If I strengthen my body, I can carry it, but whether I can fight is another matter.

So, except for Haruka, we are holding the Bardiche.

It is a weapon with an axe attached to the end of a long handle.

This is a weapon that uses centrifugal force to strike, so even those of us with inferior strength are guaranteed a certain degree of power.

However, it tends to leave a lot of gaps when attacking, and is difficult to handle.

Incidentally, it is powerful enough to cut down an orc if it hits cleanly.

The only weapon of Haruka who does not have an axe is the explosive arrow.

As the name suggests, it is an arrow that explodes when pierced. ...... The cost is about two gold coins.

It was made by Haruka, but if you buy it normally, it will cost you at least five gold coins.

In addition, Toya's axe and our bardiche are all flame attribute steel.

In any case, Toya's axe is thick, and of course the amount of attribute steel used in the bardiche we use is large, so the cost is not too shabby.

If it wasn't for the extra income from the Iron Golem, we would have been in a very tough spot.

Even if I could kill him with this, I'd probably be in the red, right?

"What do you think?　In the event that you're looking for the best way to get the most out of your business, you'll be able to get the most out of it.

In the meantime, Diora says that Elder Trent will make a fortune if he can get it to the capital.

It's hard to transport them when they're that size.

Some people have asked me whether it is necessary to spend so much money to die. ...... Even though debt is out of the question, I have money at hand that I can use.

I'm not sure I'd go as far as to say that I'd go as far as to say that I'd go as far as to say that I'd go as far as to say that I'd go.　It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.　I said "Ai-share-ritan"," some of them said, and the mission was carried out.

Well, even if we lost money this time, we can still use the weapons next time.

Except for Haruka's explosive arrows, which are consumables.

If anything, I'm more concerned about the time I spent training the battle axe than the money, but I guess that's experience.

I'm not sure if I'll ever have a chance to use the [battle axe technique] skill that I somehow managed to acquire this time, but the experience of fighting a big enemy shouldn't be wasted.

Let's go, then.

"Let's go!

We nodded at Toya's words, and stepped into the square where Elder Trent was waiting.
