Orc subjugation training

***---***

"Goshujin-sama, an Orc is coming."

"Ehh, Orc? Where?"

"Over there, over there."

When I looked in the direction Mart was pointing, I could see a shadow moving between the trees.

Everyone got nervous when they heard the word Orc, but it looked like there was only one, so there was no need to panic.

[ Kent-sama, what would you like to do? ]

[ Ehh, I see, is it better to let them experience subjugation. ]

[ It seems like there's only one, and it's affordable. ]

"Okay, Nitta, Furuta, Kondo, go subjugate it."

"Haa? All of a sudden, will Kokubu support us?"

"Hmm ... If it's a standard magician's level ... Aahh, I'll treat you, but for a fee."

"Do that for free, okay, Kazuki, Joe, let's do it!"

The three who were staying behind, nodded at Furuta's words, and started preparing for the subjugation.

"Muell-san, please stay here. Mart, just in case, please guard her."

"Wafuu, understood."

"My best regards, Mart."

Mart was being petted by Muell-san and its eyes were narrowing.

"Hey, Kokubu, what about me?"

"Yagi ... do your best!"

"Heyy! Rather, is it okay if I stay here ..."

He shrewdly secured a place next to Muell-san, but his face looked a little pale.

Frankly, I was tired of defeating Orcs and Ogres, but from Yagi's point if view, it might feel like entering a cage in a zoo.

Even while we were talking, the Orc approached us while checking on the situation.

[ Kent-sama, if it gets dangerous, I will help them. ]

[ It's okay, I'll put out a shield of darkness to stop any dangerous attacks. ]

[ I see, there is no need to worry if you have the support of an S-rank adventurer. ]

[ Maa, there's no point in messing around too much. ]

The three staying behind people also had a tense expression on their faces, bending and stretching, rotating their arms, and trying to release their tension along with that of their bodies.

"Don't think about killing it all at once. Whittle it down, whittle it down, and keep your guard up until it's completely dead."

"Tch, it's really big ..."

"It's okay, it's okay, it's four-on-one, Nitta. I'll play around with Hit And Away."

"Damnit, Kokubu is too calm."

"Ha!Ha!Ha!, that's the difference in experience, Furuta-kun."

"It's annoying ..."

While we were joking around, the Orc seemed to have made up its mind.

"Bumoooooo!"

"Come on, everyone chant, aim for the feet! Anway, stop it from moving."

"Understood! Mana, oh mana, oh mana that governs the world, gather, gather, gather in my body, return, return, return and become my power, strengthen!"

"Shi!"

"Bufuuu ..."

Towards the rushing Orc, two blades of wind shot, and in addition, a gust was blown and its feet stopped.

With daggers in their hands, the three boys rushed to their respective positions and started attacking.

"Hey, over here, over here!"

"Sorasorasorasora!"

"Hey, take that!"

The staying behind trio circled around the Orc, slashing at its legs.

As expected of people from athletic clubs, they aimed at really disgusting places such as the Achilles tendon and the back of the knee.

"Buu ... Bufuuuu ..."

The Orc had an irritated expression on its face, but when it tried to chase Nitta and the others, its slashed leg hurt and its face was distorted.

On the other hand, the three of them seemed to be moving more and more lightly, as if their tension had eased as they moved.

[ Kent-sama, the Orc still has room to spare. Tell them not to let their guard down even if it gets down on its knees. ]

"Understood. Everyone, don't let your guard down even if the Orc gets down on its knees. It still has some energy left."

"Tatsuya, don't let your guard down!"

"Kazuki too, oops, dangerous!"

For the three who had improved their movement with physical strengthening, the Orc's attacks just cut through the air.

However, there was a problem there.

[ Shaving with a dagger might take a little time. ]

[ It feels like fat armor. ]

The three of them aimed at the leg joints to stop the Orc from moving, but it seemed that the daggers were a little lacking in power to break through the thick subcutaneous fat and pass the damage through.

It was on all fours with its knees completely bent, but if you got close, it would swing its thick arms around, so it wasn't quite enough to drain its stamina.

"Kokubu, it's bad! I can't cut it!"

"Me too, it's probably the fat!"

The three were slashing its flanks and back, but apparently the subcutaneous fat stuck to the blades and took away the sharpness of the daggers.

The Orc's leg was cut and it couldn't move, but the wound itself wasn't that big.

As Reinhardt said, it still had a lot of energy left.

"If it's like this, oraa!"

"Buooooo!"

"Watch out!"

Nitta stabbed the dagger into the Orc's side, but he was nearly mowed down when he stopped moving.

The shield of darkness came in just in time, but Nitta let go of the dagger.

"What are you doing, Kazuki!"

"Shut it, it's going to be bad at this rate! Kokubu, give me some kind of weapon, weapon!"

Nitta left his post and ran back to me.

"You know ... Normally you can't replenish weapons in the middle."

"Give me a sword too, a sword, uraaaa!"

"Hey, you guys!"

Furuta came back with his dagger stuck in the Orc's side.

Kondo ended up facing off against the Orc, but luckily the damage to its leg was great, so it just waved its arms around and didn't go after him.

"Kokubu, hurry up and get a weapon out, please!"

"No good, no good, that kind of cheating is unacceptable."

"Then, what should I do."

"Can't you kill it with attack magic, or barehanded?"

"I can't use amazing magic like you."

"Hey, hurry up. I can't do anything by myself!"

I thought the subjugation got off to a good start, but it was already slowing down.

"It can't be helped ... It's only this time."

It was when I was taking out the swords that were placed in the shadow storage.

"Zuryaaaaaa!"

A large figure suddenly ran in, wielded a large sword and cut off the Orc's head.

The Orc collapsed with blood splattering from its severed neck, and everyone froze as if time had stopped.

The first to move was Gilik who broke in.

When he put the blood-splattered sword back into its scabbard and turned to Muell-san, his expression was disgustingly proud.

Muell-san quickly stood up and stepped forward.

"How is it, Myuu-ane, to rely on guys such as this ..."

Paan!

Muell-san's slap caught Gilik's cheek, and a dry sound resounded.

"Do you know what you've done! As an adventurer, you should never do something like stealing prey from a junior with a rank lower than yours! What are you doing!"

"N, no ... I'm ..."

It must have been because Muell-san linked her arms with mine.

I think he was just trying to show his good side, and he didn't understand what was going on.

As expected, the old and new duo frown and sigh.

"Everyone was trying their best. Although I thought it was becoming more and more useless, I thought it was really amazing to cooperate and stop the movement of the Orc. After this, if they killed the Orc, they would have gained both experience and confidence ... But Gilik ruined it all."

"No ... I was, to protect Myuu-ane ..."

"I didn't ask you to do that! I'm taking measures to protect myself! I'm not a child, I'm a full-fledged adventurer, don't look down on me!"

Pushed by Muell-san's sharp words, Gilik was silent.

"Apologize. Apologize to everyone ... Gilik!"

"I, I was ..."

In front of Gilik, who was about to turn around and run away, I put out a shield of darkness to block his way.

"Are you going to run away with your tail between your legs like that again?"

"Bastard ... Damned Chibi ... I'm not."

Gilik bared his teeth and glared at me, but I was the one who was pissed off.

As if to show off, I pierced trees with water spears, cut trunks with wind blades, and floated huge fireballs above my head.

"Frankly, if I put my mind to it, Gilik-san won't even be my opponent. No matter how hard you try, you're still a D-rank. There's no way you can match me, an S-rank."

"You ..."

"I was the one who provided support, controlled the situation so that there would be no danger, and had everyone gain experience. Well, it was certainly a waste of time, but they were still doing their best, just like Muell-san said, and their failures should have been their sustenance for the future. No one had been injured yet, and they hadn't given up. Why are you stealing their prey!"

"Kuu ..."

The old and new duo and Kondo were also looking at the silent Gilik.

"I decided. These guys said they won't go back to Japan and will stay in Volzard, so I'll give them special training as adventurers and let them gain a lot of experience. If I take them deep into the Devil's Forest, there will be Orcs and Ogres scattered about. I'm sure they'll overtake Gilik-san in no time."

"D, don't joke around!"

"I'm not joking around. Let's see, right ... Please show me the courage to be promoted to A-rank within this year. If not, I will seriously take Muell-san."

I walked over to Muell-san, wrapped my arms around her waist and hugged her.

"That's right, I'm already tired of babysitting a brat who won't admit his own mistakes, so I guess I'll choose Kent ..."

Muell-san also guessed my intention and leaned her head on my shoulder.

"Guu, giii ... Remember this, damned Chibi. I'll crumple you bastard up and throw you in the garbage can ... Oi! Bastard, don't get carried away ... I, I'm sorry!"

Gilik ran away after I removed the shield of darkness.

Still, I wondered if he thought that was an apology ...

Muell-san let out a big sigh, walked over to the three who were staying behind with a wry smile on her face, and deeply bowed her head.

"I'm really sorry. It was a great opportunity ..."

"No, no, it's not Myuu-neesan's fault."

"Right, right, I know Gilik-aniki is like that."

"We were also being slow ..."

No, really, being slow was also a good thing.

"That's why ... I'll let the three of you experience subjugating Orcs at my special training ground. If you want, I'll bring Ogres and Rock Ogres."

If it was the special training ground in the Devil's Forest, Orcs were roaming around.

"Seriously. Unexpectedly, we will rise to A rank faster, right?"

"Right now I'm not good enough, but shouldn't I increase my experience points?"

"Ahh ... But, prepare your own weapons."

"Wait a minute, you're telling me to hit it with a dagger again, ahh, my dagger is broken!"

When the Orc fell, Furuta's dagger was broken at the base of the blade.

[ Kent-sama, wouldn't it be fine if we accommodated what was prepared in Resenburg? ]

[ Hmm ... I thought it would be better to start from scratch, but it's no good without a weapon. ]

[ These people are quite strong, so if you train them, they will become good. ]

[ Maa, they said they will stay here, so I'll give them some preferential treatment. ]

To deal with large monsters such as Orcs and Ogres, daggers didn't seem to have enough reach or power, so let's have them borrow something from the Lastock garrison.

"For the time being, we can't leave the Orc corpse as it is, so take out the magic stone. I'll take care of the corpse disposal."

"Ou, that's right. Then, Tatsuya, please!"

"Why is that, Kazuki, do it."

"Yes, yes, you're going to become adventurers right? You're going to do it dozens or hundreds of times from now on, so hurry up and do it!"

In the end, it was Kondo who started taking out the magic stone, and I had a feeling that he was going to have a series of hardships in the future.

Now that I mention it, Yagi is strangely quiet.

Yagi stopped moving while staring at his smartphone screen.

"Yagi, what's wrong?'

"No, it's nothing ..."

"Did something happen in japan again?"

"Kokubu, people with good intuition are hated."

"And?"

"It's not and ... Aahh, mou, a storm of criticism is being stirred up towards Watase because of Fujii's case."

"Aahh, those two went home together, didn't they. Did something happen before or after they left?"

"Maybe. While fully defending Fujii, there seemed to a clash with the victim protection side."

Fujii, who was on the verge of becoming monster-fallen and caused murders, and Watase, who was live streaming with Tayama, who died after being stoned by an Orc, returned together with the first repatriation technique.

Both of them had their friends killed by monsters in front of them, so there must have been a part of them thinking about themselves.

Fujii is the victim, stay in a safe Japan, don't criticize someone when you know nothing ... Writing on the SNS like this seemed to be the beginning of the storm of criticism.

"Home identification And convexity Pattern?"(TN:Dunno. A mix of Engrish and other words. 自宅特定アンド凸のパターン？ Jitaku tokutei Ando totsu no Pataan?)

"Maa, that's about it."

"Haa ... It's better not to go home."

"That's right, but we don't have cheats."

"What are you talking about? What is Yagi holding."

"Ehh? Ou, I see, if I have a smartphone, can i cheat with modern knowledge?"

Yagi happily raised his smartphone and tilted his head in contemplation.

"What? A follow-up report on Watase?'

"No, not that ... I mean, a modern knowledge cheat is a guy who uses modern knowledge to develop things and create things, right?"

"That's right. Is it Over-technical, so to speak?"

"Rather, it's troublesome at the point of making something ..."

"Uwaa, it came out. So Yagi-like, it's so Yagi-like."

"Because, for example, if you're going to make a bicycle. Chains, tires, brake wires, it's a lot of work to make everything. It would be quicker if Kokubu just happened to bring it."

"Maa, that's true, but ..."

"I want to make money without working! Alright, Kokubu, cast a spell on me that will allow me to make money just by breathing."

"There is no such magic. That's right, if it's a different magic, I'll cast it on you."

"A different magic?"

"Yup, this morning, I was talking to Yagi at the meeting place."

"You, don't tell that story ... Wait a minute ... Was I really heard? By that dog bastard."

Recalling that Gilik was stalking us, Yagi's face paled as he grasped the situation.

"Yagi, you don't like people with good intuition, do you?"

"Don't joke around, you idiot! What am I going to do."

"It's okay. Gilik can't afford to be bothered by something like Yagi."

"Ou, I see. If he's aiming for A-rank within the year, he can't afford that."

"Right, right, it's fine as long as you don't mess around in the city."

"You, don't say such scary things. I won't be able to walk in the city."

"But, if Gilik isn't there, it's a chance to get along with Muell-san."

"Ou, that's right, invite her to dinner while the dog bastard is away ... No wait, it's a trap, it's a trap to beat me up in the city!"

"Yagi, who has good intuition ..."

"That's enough. A heartless person like you should be cursed to have no time to spend it even if they have money."

"Ha!Ha!Ha!, it's useless Yagi, that kind of curse, it was already on me a long time ago!"

Guha!, I took damage by saying that myself.

Mart comforted me by patting me 'pofu pofu' on my shoulder as I fell to my knees.
