288 268. He's hot.

"Nh... nh!? It's hot!!

Silvia, who was sleeping with her arms tied to the wall, shouted and stood up as she awoke.

It was unusually hot.

If you notice, the carriage is as hot as a sauna.

"What is this...? It's gone."

Standing in the middle of the carriage, he looks around.

But there's nothing I can do about it. Because the carriage is still running, it can't jump off easily, and I don't think it will be solved if it jumps off.

"... will you calm down for now?"

Sylvia, who thought it would be useless to rub his head around, went back to his original position and leaned back against the wall again.

"Hot!?

The carriage knot hardware, heated for some reason, relentlessly stimulates Sylvia's skin.

Sylvia jumped unbearably under attack from hardware that seemed nearly sixty degrees.

"Nuu!? Ouch!?!?

At that moment - they must have arrived at their destination. The carriage stopped suddenly and the rear wheel floated, and Sylvia rolled in front of the carriage. This time, with the impact of the rear wheel hitting the ground, Sylvia blew up momentum behind the carriage and broke down the door and fell outside.

"... it's a bad day."

With Sylvia lying on her back on the ground, she inadvertently mouthed.

"Ah, no, it's not. Fufufu"

Immediately afterwards, I remember spending time with a second person and I think it wasn't a bad day at all.

For a few seconds, my back is getting hotter and hotter.

"Nnah, ah, it's hot! It's hotter than that! What the hell is this!?

Raise your feet and recoil, and stand up all at once with momentum and abs.

And what Sylvia saw...

― ― The more you came, the more you came

Magma flowing out of Dovadova (...).

The place taken off the carriage was the crater of the volcano.

Because it was so unusual, Sylvia became calm as she circled around and was convinced of this off-track heat.

If it's a volcano, it must be hot...

"No, no, no, no!! Volcanoes!?!?!?"

Then a few seconds later, confusion comes with the difference in time.

In a moment, a single barbecue letter passed in Sylvia's head. Of course, it is Sylvia who will be burned.

I heard it was a pretty steep test, but I didn't think Sylvia would be left behind by the volcano. Sylvia was stunned for a while as she watched the roaring magma.

While you're doing that, the wind that's burning all over your body stimulates you.

I can't afford to be blurry.

The impatient Sylvia began exploring the surroundings as soon as he could.

Somewhere in this volcano, there must be a blue flaming bird, the Spirit of Fire, Bre Phoenix. If we don't find it early and sign the contract and get home, Sylvia will eventually be stuck with the heat.

But....

"- Shit! Not at all!

This is supposed to be the nest of the Phoenix, but somehow we don't even see Phoenix instead of Bre Phoenix.

For an hour, Sylvia explored the crater, but there was no sign of it.

There's no one around the crater. Then....

"... I don't think so."

Sylvia's gaze turned towards the crater.

"No, stay calm."

Sylvia has been in danger from the second many times before, but that's why I knew the second would never cross the line.

Getting into the crater is clearly crossing the line. Such a dangerous thing would not let Sylvia do it, no matter what the second.

This means that the Phoenix are hiding somewhere outside the crater.

"Shit, I forgot. Yes, observation."

Sylvia, who gradually calmed down, recalled the “observation” that was the basis of his first sight.

Reflecting on running around in the heat and consuming stamina, he climbs up to the rocks and looks around.

"Hmm, no. Does that mean you're hiding, or... empty?"

Look up at the sky, but nothing is flying.

"Maybe he hasn't been in the nest forever."

A little observation led to such a conclusion.

This increases the likelihood of a durable war.

"Do we need to find a cool place where we can wait to get back to the nest?"

Sylvia walked away from the heat and looked for a place to wait.

However, there cannot be such a place near the crater.

After all, I decided to lurk behind a big rock that I thought was the best, and wait for Phoenix to come.

"--You 're finally here."

About three hours have passed.

Sylvia, who was looking up at the sky, discovered a flock that flew in at sunset.

It's a flock of Phoenix. I can tell from just looking at it that there are dozens.

"There it is...!

Among the dozens that gradually descend, I found only one beautifully pale and pale individual.

That's Bre Finics - Sylvia is sure of that.

"Mm, that way!

The place where Phoenix and the others got out of the sky was just opposite from where Sylvia was waiting.

Sylvia runs quickly and tries to make contact before the Phoenixes fly away again.

But....

"Ah, stay here!!

About ten meters away, the Phoenix flew at once.

The herd was on the ground for only a few minutes in time.

We need to make contact with Bre Finics in the next few minutes.

"Hah... hah... hah... hah..."

Sylvia breathed on her shoulders, searching for cold air and returning to the shadow of the rock.

It seems that it is quite painful for even a demon wearer to rush through this heat.

"When's that herd coming next...?

Looking up at the sky from the shadow of the rock, he murmured.

... the next herd arrived about ten hours later.

The Phoenix herd will now fly in with dawn.

If you come at sunset, sunrise. This is the right time to hit. Sylvia, who had anticipated this in the middle of the night, was already standing by out of the shadow of the rocks at the brink of the morning sun coming out of the horizon.

"It's that way!

This is as expected.

Sylvia travelled in parallel with the herd descent and adjusted to ensure that he reached Bre Finics for a few minutes, the expected length of stay for the Finics.

But....

"Nah!?

As soon as Sylvia approached the place where the Phoenix fell down and stood, the Phoenix fled and fled.

"What didn't I do...!?

Having waited for more than ten hours and finally had a chance to visit, Sylvia forgot the heat and stood up for a while.

I can't turn my head because of the heat and fatigue.

This happened before... and Sylvia remembered it blurrily.

It was about three weeks before the first title match. On instructions from the second, Sylvia and Eco were all unequipped and trained to circle the Lymptophate Dungeon with only a wooden bow and a wooden shield.

I spent hours dealing with the monsters carefully amid an overwhelming shortage of firepower. If you focus a little, you'll be back in the swing. Therefore, I realized that it was very important to switch between focus and relaxation successfully.

Sylvia learned how to confront the dungeon in that training.

It was the same as this time.

Shouldn't we go back to the beginning? As soon as I thought about it, Sylvia felt happier.

I realized that. The knowledge we have learned so far is very useful.

"The opponent is a bird, not to mention a spirit. It's a bird's eye, but you must have weak vision in the dark."

Compare the subject information with various conditions to identify possible weaknesses.

Having crossed with a number of monsters, Sylvia had a sense of smell to spot the acute.

"... let's walk through the terrain and remember. It's pretty hot, but if you rest in the shade for three hours, you'll be fine."

Getting to know the terrain. Examine the advantageous positions so that you can stand up well in the event of an emergency.

In addition, manage your condition so that you are fully equipped for opportunity time.

Both are essential technologies around the dungeon.

"Well, if your eyesight is weak, it's possible that you're running away with footsteps... why don't you try a little experiment at the next sunset?"

And if your chance time is limited, you won't challenge your innocence.

Prepare yourself to concentrate on one point and go for a challenge here. This can also be applied due to the importance of pre-investigation and the usefulness of the trail.

"Well, if you think about it, it doesn't change what you do normally."

Relax when you're at your limit.

Simply by doing this, Sylvia became as cool as magic and began to realize her potential as she saw it.

If you keep trying, you're bound to reach your limit somewhere. Always relaxing and focusing only when you need to do so is the trick to stay focused for a long time.

Sylvia understood once again whether this was what the second person was saying.

--And sunset.

"There you are."

Sylvia relocated a little and hid behind a rock about twenty meters from the landing site of Phoenix, which she had discovered during the day.

The back of this rock is the second best position among her. The best position is reserved for production (...).

"When I descended to the crater, Fufu"

This kind of humor is also a trick to relaxation.

"Well, how will you react?"

From the right side of the shadow of the rock, Sylvia stood a bow.

Aim right in front of Bre Finics. From the diagonal front, adjust to fly the thread in front of you.

……

Shot.

The arrow passes diagonally in front of Bre Finics as he is aiming… Slightly late, Bre Finics jumps like a surprise.

Again!

Sound.

Bre Phoenix didn't see the arrows well.

If you can see, you should be avoiding the approaching arrows in a reflective manner. But without it, it's natural to think that you were surprised by the sound that you reacted late.

In other words, it can be said that the cause of the rush to escape was the footsteps.

…………

The operation has been consolidated.

All you have to do is decide.

"Well... sometimes I have to stretch myself."

Sylvia began to move with a deep smile as she murmured.

--Ten hours later, sunrise.

Phoenix come from the sky.

Sylvia was waiting for it at a short distance of just fifteen meters from the landing site. This is the best position we have found in the topographic survey.

Good boy.

Sylvia murmured as he saw Bre Phoenix coming down to where he was supposed to be, mostly from the shadow of the rock.

And... I took off my foot gear and went barefoot.

"~ ~ ~!!

Eat your teeth and stand barefoot on the ground.

This is right next to the magma. The ground temperature is above 80°C.

But Sylvia didn't make any noise, didn't move her feet in vain, and stepped closer to Bre Phoenix to avoid making footsteps.

I stopped my feet many times in the middle of so much pain.

But there is no dust in her mind to give up.

I really wanted to use Bre Finics.

It is the Spirit that that Second has deliberately recommended. It's decided to be strong. I definitely wanted to make a deal.

Therefore, it doesn't matter if your leg gets burned.

It doesn't matter if it hurts enough to die.

There is no problem because it is healed with potion.

For now, I just want to catch the bird in front of me.

With one heart, I endured the severe pain and approached it little by little.

I'm no longer pushing with guts alone.

She must be the hottest person here right now.

…………

And Silvia, who finally stood behind Bre Phoenix, slowly reached out.

The moment the hand touches the roots of Bre Phoenix - Bre Phoenix flies.

"Hot!?

I accidentally pulled my hand into the heat as if it had touched a flame.

At the same time, buzzing... and a slimy feeling is transmitted to Sylvia's hand.

In her hand was a feather shaking like a blue flame.

The moment I saw it... I felt that Sylvia had something in common with Bre Phoenix.

Ah, now that we've finally made a deal - she realizes it wonderfully.

"Ouch! It hurts! It hurts, it hurts!! Ahhh! Damn it! It hurts too much!!

As soon as I was relieved, the pain that I had endured until now hit me.

Sylvia rushes into his shoes, drinks potions, and moves to the shade of a rock with a slightly cooler temperature.

"Hah... hah... what did you see, Master Second... when I do it, I'll do it..."

Sylvia looked up at the sky and spoke to herself as she gripped Bre Phoenix's feathers.

So all three of them were able to conclude a contract with the Spirit of their goal safely.

Meanwhile, at that time, the second one was called.

I see, Death Spirit.

I was confronted by a samurai.
