213 Episode 213 Things lurking in the woods

"Hahahahaha! The monsters are doomed!"

A herd of monsters appeared, and the young warriors of the Elves headed for them.

"Cut, cut, cut, cut!!"

They dodge the monster's attack with a single sheet of paper, and those who have been dodged drink Elixir and recover, then head back.

Then I took the monster and dismantled his body reliably.

"Khhhhhhhhhh!!"

"I won!!"

"Hihihihihihi!! It's our victory!!"

In this way, the peace of the homeland was preserved today.

Recently, Elves and Dwarves have taken the lead, so we're a little bored to wait in the back.

But it's always good to have young warriors in public and never lose their lives.

Cuckoo!

Meanwhile, Mohmov tried to leave the village while sucking on the flesh of the monster, so I lifted up the body and stopped.

And Mohmov stared in the direction he was about to leave.

Hmm, maybe it's time.

◆

"My defenses are in place, so I'm going to explore the woods."

After the battle, I asked Mr. Sharaza to gather the chiefs, and I proposed to leave the defense of the village and go to the woods.

"Sir Lex, it's too dangerous for a boulder.There's a monster's nest in the woods! "

"Hmm, thanks to you and the other young people who trained you, you've grown stronger than you can see... no, I don't know if I can honestly say that I've grown stronger. Oh, no, I'm not.It's dangerous to go into the forest.In the past, before the warriors could reach their homeland, they had a terrible time trying to defeat the monsters outside. "

Not only Mr. Sharaza, but also the chiefs will stop going out.

"That's right. I know how His Majesty the Honourable King Lex feels, but it's too dangerous to go outside the woods.We should go home and intercept them until the monster attack stops. "

In that case, I wonder if the Dwarf chief would stop calling me that.

"I understand what you're saying.But I think even if I subtract that danger, I should investigate. "

"Investigation? Was it a crusade?"

"Yes. Since I've been here, I've been using exploratory magic to understand the situation around me, but the number of monsters wandering around the neighborhood has been increasing at an accelerating rate."

"Is that true, Lord Lex!?"

"Yes, I'm still wandering around without noticing the town, but if the monsters who found it summon their allies and attack them all at once, it's going to be a massive raid like never before."

"What...!?"

When I heard it was going to be more battles than ever before, the long faces turned blue.

"So I'm going to send in the monsters to find the culprit."

"Principal!? Queen!?"

Having heard that, Sharaza suspects that my aim is to continue producing monsters of the Queen's species. [M]

"Yes, the monsters are targeting the fruits of the world tree, but I am concerned that all the monsters in the forest will be targeting here."

In the first place, the world tree was said to be the world's largest weed.

Had there been a monster intentionally targeting the World Tree, we would have raised it with great joy in our previous lives.

"Monsters are not so cooperative, and there must be others who are ordering us to target our home."

"Someone is manipulating a monster!?"

For example, there are monsters who use monsters called monsters.

Probably.

"Or if there is a powerful boss among the monsters.Some of the monsters that make up the herd can give very strong orders.These monsters look at the damage and act as boss puppets. "

These types of monsters are really troublesome.

Besides, that's the only way my boss's monsters think twisted.

Targeting only children, spreading the disease to target only people with certain diseases.

"But it's still too dangerous. If you're going to investigate, you're just leaving town, aren't you?Wouldn't it be safer to sacrifice monsters on expeditions near home? "

King Dwarf's proposal is correct.

If you don't know where the monster's boss is, you should cut off the number of enemies first.

But this time, I have my own. [M]

"That's right, but after coming here, Mohmov tried to get out of the woods many times.It's in the same direction. "

"Same direction? What the hell is that?"

"Mohmov always tries to leave in the same direction, no matter which direction the monster comes from.It's like there's something there. "

"Is that the monster's boss?"

"Maybe."

Yes, this is the first time Mohmov has shown such interest.

Even if we can't find the monster's boss, it's more likely that we can find something.

"Fortunately, the young Elf warriors are now confident in their abilities, and the Dwarves' craftsmen are now able to regain their lost skills and make better gear.And with Elixir-catalyzed fertilizer, the food problem could have been improved, so the cage castle would have been easier. "

"Uh-huh, I appreciate that, but it's beautiful."

"So now that our defenses are in place, we have decided that we should explore the monster home before the monster raids intensify."

"Mhh...."

The captains who heard my plan shut their mouths to reflect. [M]

"... yes, I entrust you with the task of finding the culprit of the monster."

"Yes! I'll take care of it!"

With the approval of the chiefs, I'm going to the forest. [M]

Wait a minute!

But the Elf Captain will stop me.

"... please"

The chief asked me to squeeze out, but with a desperate voice. [M]

"Leave it to me!"

◆

"That's why I decided to go find the home of the monster."

When I leave the assembly hall, I will meet with the elves and everyone who is training to inform them of my future policy.

"That's enough! It's finally our turn!My arms are ringing! "

"Recently, I was bored to give the elves the chance to play."

I'm sorry I'm so motivated to finally show up, but I'm going to stop everybody.

"No, I'm thinking of going to this role alone with Mohmov."

"Eh!? Why, brother!?"

"Yes, we don't seem to need them right now, so why don't we go with Mr. Lex?"

If you're not convinced, people will boom.

"This exploration is better than Mohmov's feelings.If I follow Mohmov and find out, I'll be back for a while, so I don't need people.It would be better to go with a small elite so that you can escape and hide as soon as the monster finds you. "

"Oh, then I'd better not go."

"I think I should stop too."

Norb and Mina give up their participation after hearing my explanation. [M]

"But we'll be fine!You can follow my brother! "

"Can't you just shut up?"

"That's not true!"

Liliera, Gyro-san, Megli, I wonder if you'd like to follow me.

"Yeah, Gyro, there's something I want you to do."

What do you want me to do?

"The number of monsters wandering around the neighborhood has grown considerably recently.There will probably be a major offensive soon. "

!?

Hearing about the big offensive, everyone's complexion changed.

"That's why I want everybody to wait in town for the time of need."

"That's enough. You sure you want to keep your strength?"

"Yeah, I can't do this alone."

Yes, in these circumstances, I would have left it to the Knights of the Nation if I had been in my previous life.

They protected my back as a role, so I could fight alone without worrying.

But now I'm an adventurer with no backing or power.

I can rely on my own strength, and....

"I want to rely on all of my people."

Nh!!

The gyro who asked me for a favor will be happy. [M]

"I'm your brother! Brother, now!You're counting on me!! "

"Yes, yes. Mr. Lex relied so much on me... heh, heh."

Fu, fuhehehehe

Nh, let me handle it.

Mr. Megli laughs at me for putting up his thumb. [M]

"Oops, let me handle it, brother!"

"Yes! I'll take care of hundreds of monsters!"

And Gyro-kun and Riella took on the defense with a cheerful face.

Yeah, I can leave with peace of mind if everyone protects me!

◆

Well then, I'll go.

Be careful!

"Leave the town to us, brother!!"

"" "" I'll take care of it, Master Lex!! "" "

"All right! Let's go, Mohmov!"

"Cucu!!"

Everyone will see me off, and Mohmov and I will leave town.

Then I ran into a herd of monsters.

"I knew there were a lot of them. It's better to move with fewer numbers so you don't get attacked."

"Gyu!!"

I cast the magic of restraint on the monsters while pulling out the sword.

"Chase Freeze Pillars!!"

Releases tracked ice magic to avoid damaging the forest and traps the monster herd in the ice pillar.

In this way, the frozen monster becomes an obstacle and a wall to protect the homeland.

"Gww!!"

Mohmov wraps the wind with attribute enhancement, and tears the monster apart while flirting with it at high speed.

"Cuckoooo!!"

It's been a long time since we've had a brawl, and Mohmov is so happy.

After all, pets should be allowed to exercise freely outside regularly.

"Come on, I'm gonna cut through like this, Mohmov!"

"Cucu!!"

◆

"Cucu!!"

As we continue through the woods defeating monsters, Mohmov is this way! And I give you a squeal.

And as he continued as he was urged, a hole with a large mouth was opened in the hidden place in the trees.

"Is this... a tunnel?"

There are many trails of monsters in the wagon that lead to the basement.

Yeah, this is a clam.

If you check with exploration magic, the number of monsters is overwhelmingly high.

This must be the home of the Parent Demon Beast, who gave birth to the monster.

Thank you, Moh-mov.

Cuhun!

Mohmov prides himself on praising the Mohmov who found the tunnel.

Well then, let's go face to face with the boss!
