139 137: The monster crusade, and

― ― Spirit drinking water, possibly enhanced by new water spirits, was used to generate enhanced versions and prototypes.Take it and visit the Forest of Flaria again.

Why don't we just follow the roots and get close to the monster first?

"There's more than one... this way first"

We all agreed with Vake's words and moved through the woods under Lord Rykerland's guidance.

The procedure is to prescribe the prototype to the ground and surface with the help of Mr. Rykerland.It would be best if it could be eliminated, but there is also a good chance that it will be missed.With that possibility in mind, we were ready to launch an attack with the maximum combat power we could now have.

The heroic party members, including Julius, and Elvira, whose helpers, Mercedes and Wentor, had brought along, could no longer be left alone in the inn.If you have a good sorcerer, you can attack from the outside, even if the prototype can't break the line.

"Mel, El, can I ask you something?"

Yeah!

"Yeah, I got it."

Arnold - who was somewhat unconvinced by his sister's involvement - disagreed to the end, but also broke with Elvira's strong hopes - was motivated by Elvira and trustworthy Mr. Mercedes.

Later on, I handed the prototype to a man named Rykerrand, who was quite different in tension.

"This... please"

Aha

Master Rykerrant held the container he received from me and thought he had crouched down and touched the ground with his other hand.In a moment, a large magical formation floats at his feet.The light from the magic circle spread throughout the woods - Rikerland drowned the prototype on the ground.

Bwah, the wind is coming from the magic team.I was pulled back by Lukash.

Staring a little farther away, I stared at Rikerlant.--The view over his shoulder cracked.

It's a rift in the border!

I see it!

Lukash screams. In a moment, Arnold, Mercedes, and Elvira magically distort - attacking the dividing line.

The rift in space is spreading with the power of Lord Rykerrand and the powerful magic of Arnold and the others.I glanced at the state of the boundary from the widening rift.

There were several medium-sized cannibalistic monsters in the border.Both were influenced by the prototype, and the flowers were dying and still breathing.

Then there were probably two human-shaped monsters straddling the border.Thanks to the potency of the prototype, which also appeared on the surface through the magic team, the monster was wounded and cracked in the boundary.

Humanoid monsters resisted Arnold's magic with desperate shapes.But three against two. And these three are magical elites.The rift was spreading faster and faster and faster, and Parin and the glass cracked, breaking the boundary.

Now!

"Elle, stay back!"

With Vake's signal, Lukash and Julius's avant-garde attacked at once.After Arnold lowered his sister, he magically turned to backup.

--- We had a match in no time. The botanical monster almost died under the influence of the prototype, and the monster with its boundaries was human, and it seemed to be quite strong, but there seemed to be no way to advance Lukash's collaboration.

"Waff, waff!"

"Looks like fun...."

Speaking of which, I was just looking backwards while being protected by Mr. Mercedes and Malta, but the water spirit in my arms suddenly barked happily.When I saw him shaking his tail, he seemed kind of happy.

"Aren't you glad you were able to defeat the monster that had contaminated your land?"

Elvira came back after breaking the line.I was convinced that she might say so.

Remember Elvira's magic earlier, while forgiving the Spirit of Water that bursts into joy in her arms.From the amateur's eyes, it seemed to have no less magic than Arnold and Mercedes.

Earlier Elvira-chan's magic was amazing.

I trained with Wentle!

Elvira cheered with joy.I'm sure she honed her magic to help her brothers.I understand Arnold's apprehension, but I wonder if her talents will help the brave ahead.

Afterwards, there were several other “nests” of monsters with roots in the forest, and they were chased out.However, if you get accustomed to repeating the same work, it won't take long to crush a single nest, and the monster extermination that started in the morning came to an end in the evening.

"Are there any other monster roots?"

Ahhh. But it's better to ask the children of Fontarpune, the spirits of this land... than the walrus. "

Lord Rykerrant sees the spirit of water in my arm.The Spirit of Water was exhausted and lacked strength.

"... because I don't understand the words."

Lukash strokes the head of the Spirit of Water with a bitter smile.That made my throat squeal like a cat.It looks like a puppy, but what kind of animal is it?--No, the Spirit.

"Are there any more monsters attacking your forest?"

Waff!

If you ask, you will hear a pleasant cry.Can I accept this cry in the sense of Jesus?

"... you look happy, so I feel fine."

I nodded at Diona's bitter smile.At least there are no monsters in the ground spreading toxins at this stage.If a monster with no roots in the ground was hiding in the border, it wouldn't happen right away.

Arnold put his arms together with a slightly refreshing face.

"Even if there were still monsters left, I knew how to deal with them.You can think of it as separate. "

Everyone nodded to the words and came to the conclusion that the disturbance of the Spirit of Water, Fontarpune, was settled in one case.Good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good.

Wake, the elder, was the first to open his mouth.

"What are we gonna do now?"

"I heard that the next Spirit lives near Platonovena...."

"I don't know if I'll take the lady."

Vake cuts into what everyone thinks.Everyone's eyes were directed at me and the Spirit of Water in my arms.

My ability to fight only makes my legs tied.Therefore, I naturally think it would be better to have the people of Lustu protected as before in the village - but the concern is the Spirit of this water and the Spirit Stone, the proof of the Spirit's forgiveness, which is indispensable to obtain the Holy Sword.

Avour says that I am the one who was forgiven by the new Spirit of Water.

"The Spirit Stone of Fontarpune broke, and a new Spirit of Water was born.And the Spirit's forgiveness came from Laura. "

Diona explains the current situation in an even slower tone.

Her fine and beautiful fingertips touched the stone embedded in the forehead of the water spirit.In a moment, the Spirit of Water snorts in disgust and nods his face in my chest.Apparently I don't like touching spiritual stones very much.

"As long as what's embedded in this head is a Spirit Stone, this child will have to follow us to the Sanctuary.And... now that Laura is the forgiven one, we need her to follow us to the sanctuary, right? "

Diona asked, "Of course!Wentor's cheerful voice answered.

Spirit stones only react to forgiven humans!If anyone could use Spirit Stones, there wouldn't be any “forgiveness"!I don't want to be used by thieves! "

Nfufu, a green ball of light that goes up and down in anger.Wentle's explanation of the Spirit Stone bothered his head as he nodded that it was only natural.

In order to get the sword safely, I and the newly born Spirit of Water must reach the sanctuary safely.

Arnold is approaching us.And I stared down at the spirits of water in my arms.

"It is good to think that the demon king who attacked the spirit and sealed around knows a lot about how to get the Holy Sword.It is also highly likely that you know the existence of a newly born water spirit.Then... you might be targeting the baby spirits, who can't protect themselves yet. "

That was a very likely story.It is highly likely that the Demon King who destroyed Fontarpune will come after the newly born Spirit of Water.Once this child falls into the hands of the Devil, it is time to keep away from the Holy Sword.

"Well, it's up to you to bring the Spirit of Water ~"

Hyah, the moment Malta picks up the Spirit of Water from my arms - the puppy starts to rattle."Wow," he rubbed his head on my leg as he broke out of Malta's arms in a hurry.

"I miss Laura a lot. I might sneak back to Laura if I let her go.Isn't that dangerous?While I was on my way to Laura alone, the monster might have grabbed me. "

Marta stares at the spirits of water at my feet.Wake immediately sandwiched his mouth.

"It's possible, but it's certainly dangerous to take the girl."

All the companions remain silent.

Take the risk of getting away from the Spirit of Water as a result of pulling me away from my nostalgia, or take me with no ability to fight.

I couldn't say anything.Either way, my presence will be the shackle of the brave line.I couldn't help but resent why I got the permission of the Spirit of Water.

What do we do, Lukash?

It was Vake's question to Lukash that broke the silence.

Lukash was leaning.Everyone sees him.I also stared at the familiar child who was lying down - his blue eyes raised up and his eyes met.

You'll be ejaculated by straight eyes.He slowly opened his mouth while staring at me.

"Now that Laura has the permission of the Spirit of Water, Laura may be targeted by the Devil as the key to the Holy Sword."

--Yes, I don't know how far the Demon King knows how to get the Holy Sword, but if I had detailed information, I could be targeted enough.Even if I lose my life, it will be difficult to get the sword.

Lukash walks slowly.And he reached out to me and said,

"Laura, let's go together. I'll protect you."

There are a lot of cigarettes in the stretched hand.The blue eyes staring at me are powerful and full of vitality.

--My feet are tight. That's for sure, though.

I took that hand slowly.

"... yeah"

Lukash nodded and laughed with joy.

After a few seconds of staring at her blue eyes, she turned happily back to me with a modest cry: "Waff."Looking at it, the water spirits and gaze look up at us at their feet.The eyes seemed to complain "I want you to lift them".

I pick up the warm body of the puppy with a giggle.Then I licked my cheeks.

"Well, yeah, that's the best.Now... who else is going with you? "

Vake looked around.Arnold stepped forward.

"Can Elvira and Mercedes be protected in the village of the people of Rustu, as before?"

It was Diona who Arnold spoke to.She nodded without hesitation.

"Yes, of course."

"Ah! I'm getting stronger!"

Elvira shouted dissatisfied next to her.As for her, I wanted to accompany her on the journey.

Mercedes put her hand on her shoulder to forgive Elvira.

"Elvira, now listen to me very carefully."

Elvira immediately closed her mouth to Mr Mercedes's words.Even with her, I don't think she wants to trouble her brother or his companions.

Elvira walked up to her brother and pulled the hem of her clothes.And I tend to look up reluctantly.

Me, with my feet and hands tied?

Arnold immediately shook his head.Then he knelt down to gaze at Elvira and said in a slower tone than usual.

"No, I've learned enough about your magic this time.I'm counting on you.... but the next stop is the Snowland.It's tough to take you with a little body. "

I'm well aware of Arnold's concerns.In fact, the climate in Platonovena is still quite harsh for the small Elvira.

Admittedly, Arnold told me that he wasn't refusing to accompany him on his journey because he lacked the strength, which relieved Elvira's dissatisfied face.However, she still doesn't seem convinced and her cheeks are slightly swollen.

After a few seconds, Arnold gently stroked Elvira's head.

Can you help me again?

"... yeah!"

Now Elvira nodded with a smile on her face.

With satisfaction, Elvira rushed away from her brother to see Mercedes.After watching Rocco's brothers and sisters interact with each other in love, Wake turned to Julius, a young man standing a little further away.

Was he officially a party member when he joined the operation in passion, prompted by the fact that he was within Fontaine's boundaries?

"And... was it Julius? What about you?"

"Oh! I'm coming with you!"

"Liar, are you sure you want to follow me?"

Malta responded first to Julius, who nodded loudly, not to mention naturally.It doesn't seem very happy either.

Julius stared lightly at Malta.

"What is it, Malta? What's wrong with following me?"

Between... But I can't believe I'm suddenly inviting a stranger in. "

Are you sure? Malta stops by Wake.Then Vake slapped the head gently.The hand is very gentle and may be closer to stroking rather than slapping it.

"I bet you did, too.Well, it's safer for you to invite your friends than you already know. "

"Safe?"

"Keep an eye out for someone to tell you."

"Ahh... I see ~"

Was Malta convinced by Vaik's words, or did he not complain any more about Julius's membership?

Julius sighed to see if the reaction was disturbing even though he was no longer stuck.Because it was too big, I could see some play in my breath.

"What, you don't trust me, me?"

"It's not that I don't trust you, it's just that this journey is dangerous!"

Once again, Malta and Julius start arguing.At Last Brave, they entertained me with a lively conversation with good rhythm, but in this world, it seems like they would be noisy in a different sense if horses didn't suit me.

Lukash stood next to the two friends who started a quarrel and sighed.I thought it would split between the two of us.

"Anyway!... Say hello again, Julius"

Lukash gave Julius his right hand.Julius took the hand with a smile.

"Oh, thank you, Lukash."

― ― The party members have been decided again.

Hero Lukash, the people of Lustu, Diona, Magician and Concoctor Arnold, Knight Commander Veik, Treasure Hunter Malta, the newly added vigilante Julius, and - me.I didn't expect this to happen before the unexpected unfolds.

I don't really feel like joining the brave group.But the warmth in my arms, the Spirit of Water, with his face in my chest, seems to say this is not a dream.

"The day after tomorrow, pack your bags tomorrow."

The companions nodded at Vake's words and dispersed.

- Anyway, you have to keep your feet together a little longer than you've decided to follow.

Determined to do so, I hurried back to the city of Flaria with Lukash.
