56 Episode 44 The Exam Has Been Started ─ ─

Just a short walk into the woods, you suddenly meet three dogheads (Covolt). When he found me, he attacked me with his bloody eyes and his fangs peeled off.

"You're not as impatient as ever, Inugami."

My head must be full of hunger.

I will shake my spear and take down the doghead (Kobolt) who jumped calmly.

I used to be upset when suddenly attacked like this, but after experiencing the middle of that desperate evil beast runaway (Stampede), it's a good place to applaud.

"As I said before, getting used to it is good and bad. Don't make any mistakes."

Copy that.

I nodded sincerely to Gram's advice and calmly stabbed the head man (Kobolt).

I'll put my spear in my back sheath after I make sure all three movements are completely stopped. The demolition knife was removed, and the canine head (covolt) was stripped of its teeth.

Normally, furs and meat are peeled and dismantled to get the union to buy them, but this time the number of canine heads (covolts) is important. Remove only the area of proof of crusade and leave it there. After the exam, the union will enter the woods and dispose of the body of the Dogman (Covolt).

"Hurry up, three. I wonder if I should describe fortune as good."

"If they were other mercenaries, they would be."

It would be a shortcut to passing the exam to encounter a large number of dog-headed people (Kobolt), but I'm honestly not happy to have experienced the Grim Beast runaway (Stampede). Gram smiled bitterly at my mood.

Then, as you go deeper into the woods, you encounter dogheads (covolts) everywhere. I shook the gram without hesitation and gradually increased the number of dog-headed (covolt) crusades.

Fortunately, the number of Covolts encountered at once was not as large as when the Covolt King appeared. The attack was sporadic and did not result in a wave-like attack.

"Even if we can work together with five of them, we can't do more. It's a trick because of the overwhelming power of the Covolt King."

Originally, the Inu-head (Covolt) had only a slightly better intelligence than the wild beast. There is no way we can take advanced methods of warfare that make sense of numbers.

"Nevertheless, even if you say" Kobolt "in one bite, it's not all stupid. Some of them are smarter than others. Keep your mouth shut, but don't be alarmed ─ ─ cum"

"If you say 'I don't have a mouth', I'll throw it away."

"... let's do it, buddy."

"Is that impressive!?

The spear tip does not contain a pellet, while continuing a futile conversation with others. If the Inu-head (Kobolt) attacked us, he would swing his spear and crush us.

For the past week, including a gear review, I have taught Gram how to use the Black Spear (Gram). It was like eyebrows and spits at first, but I was more surprised when I actually used 'it'.

However, showing the results of the exercise is likely to be delayed. If the Dogman (Covolt) was the opponent, it wouldn't be a problem to just use Gram as a 'spear' ─ ─.

"Hmm? ─ ─ Hey, buddy. Tanma"

Gram suddenly waited when he had finished roughly 80% of the assassination target. There is nothing unusual about it at first glance.

"I've been to my partner's left front for a while, and there's gonna be one mercenary. This... don't die unless you help me."

"Hey, seriously ─ ─"

When I held the black spear on my shoulder, I ran in the direction indicated by Gram.

"Running out of nowhere, buddy."

Gram was in such a mood that he seemed to have a note at the end of the phrase.

"Don't be ridiculous. Tell me the situation!

"Yes. There's a mercenary surrounded by ten dogheads. But the mercenary at stake isn't moving from the center. He's alive... but he probably got hit in the leg."

"You're not using emergency magic tools!?

"I don't know."

I ran through the woods scraping the grass and trees.

Eventually, when you enter a little open space, Gram is in the same situation as he told you in advance. Me and a young mercenary of the same age are wearing buttocks, surrounded by a swarm of dogheads (covolts). The mercenary had a sword in his right hand, but his left hand held the thighs of his feet, and the part was red stained. Gram (here) wounded his leg and couldn't move as expected.

"Well, apparently there was a clever dog-head (Kobolt). I bet you lured her into a good mood."

"Calm down, man!

I don't know if it's human resources or not.

"Cold-blooded!

If the weapon was bleeding, I'd be scared.

I'll grasp the gram and run.

"Damn it, don't come! Don't come!!

The mercenaries are shaking the sword in their hands. The voice was strong, but I heard that the tremors were mixed up.

"You look confused and confused."

The Inu-head (Kobolt) could not get close because the mercenaries were swinging their swords around. Even if you were hungry, are you still rational enough not to approach danger?

"No, that's probably..."

As Gram murmured, I saw myself rushing into the mercenary's sight.

"Hey, hey! Help me!!

"Ah, idiot!

The mercenary's sword stopped waving because you were relieved that help was coming. That move was keeping him alive.

One of the dogheads (Covolt) who saw the opportunity approached from behind the mercenary. The mercenary who noticed the impending evil beast screamed in a hurry, but his body was frightened by fear and did not touch the sword.

Running from this distance won't make it.

Then ─ ─

"Gram! Let's throw (...)!

"Yes, anytime!

I held the gram in my hand,

"Let's cum ─ ─, naaaaaaa!!

I threw everything I could to keep the momentum running.

"Iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing!!

Gram, who literally threw in the "throwing spear", ran in a straight line as he shouted high. Then, it was sucked into the open mouth of the dog-headed man (Covolt) who was about to attack the mercenary, and the tip of the ear penetrated through the medulla oblongata.

"Yaaaa! Hit (Dom Pisha)!

I stuck my fist in my own splendid shot.

The Dogmen (Kobolt) finally noticed me because they had one of their own. And then suddenly he comes at me, who threw his own weapon at me.

Did you feel anger at what you did to your people? Or did you judge me to be easier to take down than a wounded mercenary with a weapon?

If it is the latter, there is no other regret.

When I stopped, I set my left arm carved with sacred marks (stigma) with the invading dogheads (covolt) at present.

Then he stepped in and screamed.

"It's the Magic Blade, come on!

The "Stigma" of my left arm pulsated, and a dark light gathered in my hand.

"Call me Hikaru!

And in the next moment, the light took shape and went through the mass ─ ─ a black spear (gram) appeared.

When I grasped the long handle of the spear, I wiped out the current Dogmen (Kobolt).

The dogheads (Kobolt) stopped moving. Perhaps he was surprised by the black spear that suddenly appeared in my hands, whether it was the wiser who avenged me here.

I quickly wiped out the rest of the dogheads (Kobolt) without missing that gap.
