Chapter 153: O-our first joint action...!

Alright, were leaving! Are you all ready!?

Yes, maam!

The hunting group led by Selen assembled before the villages eastern gate.

It only had 20 or so members, yet each one of them possessed Gifts. Thanks to that, each of them were comparable to a thousand men. Truly, a team of elites.

Some of them were even Double Gifts.

Selen had [Dual Wield] and [Blue Magic]; Selius had [Dual Wield] and [Green Magic]; and Philia had [Bow Techniques] and [Green Magic].

Other long-time hunting group members were also part of this group. Noel who had [Shield Master Techniques], Balrath who had [Sword Techniques], Rando who had [Spear Techniques], and Goate who had [Herculean Strength].

Also participating was Dorial, the paroled former bandit leader who had [Axe Techniques].

In addition to the ones with combat type Gifts, people like Kuretaa girl who had the convenient Gift called [Enemy Search]also participated.

I cant help but laugh whenever I see this villages war potential

Bazara, previously a soldier of Dant the former governor, unintentionally said so out loud while smiling wryly. He was a skilled soldier himself, making him another fine addition to the hunting group.

At any rate, their objective today was to search the towering mountains east of the wasteland for any possible alternative to their now dwindling supply of orc meat.

Like the forest to the north of the wasteland, the mountain range to the east was also a monster-infested area. Unlike the forest though, the mountains remained unexplored for the most part.

Compared to the forest, the mountains were quite farther away from the village. Just going to and from should take about half a day. Thankfully, as long as they travelled along the road that Luke built, that distance didnt matter.

The group decided to lure the monsters down to where they were by using a scent the monsters loved as lure.

Selius-dono, why dont we make the wind blow toward the mountains?

Y-yesh

Seliuss voice cracked while trying to reply to Philias suggestion.

Both of them had the [Green Magic] Gift, so making the wind blow a certain direction was easy for them.

O-our first joint action!

Hmm? Is something wrong, Selius-dono?

N-n-n-no, its nothing!

Philia was so puzzled on why Seliuss face looked so red. As for the other hunters, they simply affectionately watched the two.

However, at that moment

! Its here! The big games here!

Kureta shouted so.

And a moment later, Selen was able to catch the shadow of the said monster as it made its way down a mountains slope. The monster had a fiery red comb on its head; had a body that was completely covered in feathers; and had a snake-like tail. Yes, it was a cockatrice.

Chicken meaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaatttttttttttttttt!!!
