I"m sorry yesterday I make a mistake, there are 4 characters. There are Russel: Spearman, Olva: Vanguard, Karun/Calin: Swordman, and Jonathan: Thief.
Because the other two didn’t talk too much I forget about them. lol
Oh in this chapter I know who talking to who, but try my best to guess.
The first one who became aware of the enemy was Jonathan, who had 『Search』skill. (TLN: reconnaissance change to search)
“Hey, there’s a monster. It’s a monster which I don’t know."(Jonathan)
Proficiency of reconnaissance skill It was Jonathan who sensed a monster far away by a clairvoyance that is a bonus of 200, but it seems I do not know the name.
Jonathan sensed a monster far away with clairvoyance from the second bonus skill of 『Search』, but he still didn"t know the name of the monster.
"What kind of monster is it?"(Russel)
“Beast type, the size is about the wild boar, the foot is abnormally short”(Jonathan)
I didn"t know monsters with such characteristics.
Originally, battle with unknown monsters must be avoided. I do not know what the level of the monster is. I cannot be determined whether it is safe or not.
However, Jonathan only needs three experience points to level up.
“But still it is a shallow forest, so is not a strong monster, right?”(Jonathan)
“Let’s do it!”(Russel)
"…… All right."(Jonathan)
We confirm our status first, then we move carefully before we shift to combat posture.
When we went a little further, we could see the monster. It is characteristic exactly what Jonathan said. With that shot foot it"s going to troublesome, agile movement of the Beast-type monster might not be a worry so far. I don’t know this, but it’s probably a small fry.
The Beast-type monster turned around to us
A sharp eyes like a thin thread looks at us.
"Ya be ~e"(Jonathan) (TLN: I think it"s better than "Oh, no")
And, Jonathan Mumbled.
It seems that there was a reaction with 100 bonus stats of Jonathan『Search』 skill.
It is a fairly useful bonus skill in the ability to sense stats, get the best stats among opponent’s stats, and get it with a low skill level. To know the highest ability value means that you understand the nature of the other party.
And with this ability, he knows many beast types show the agility response.
“That guy has the highest value in magic!”(Jonathan)
The next moment Jonathan cried, a beast-type monster vomited the sigh of thunder.
"U wa~a!" (Olva) (TLN: Better than "Wow!" & I don"t know where Olva came from -.-")
Olva who had taken straight it from the front screamed and fell down on the spot.
"Olva！ d.a.m.n!" (Calin)(TLN: Oh man, I don"t know where these two guys came from)
“Calin Stop!" (Russel)
It was Calin who running into the monster with the sword in his hand, but the monster pursuit was faster. The monster that strikes again from its mouth. Calin dropped the sword from his hand and fell to the ground.
“d.a.m.n! Jonathan, I entrust Olva to you!” (Russel)
“I know!” (Jonathan)
I ran to help Calin.
First of all, I can"t knock down monsters.
The recommended level of a monster that uses magic is at least twenty. We can’t beat it. When I hold the body of Calin, I withdraw from the monster with full speed.
Luckily, monsters have not chased us running away. It disappears to the back of the forest as not interested at all.
"I remembered. It’s [Thunder Liger]." (Jonathan)
Jonathan, who lent the shoulder to Olva and lifted it recalls the name of that monster now.
[Thunder Liger]. I remembered the name by looking at the Monster catalogue, too.
It is a beast-type monster that uses magic, and the recommended level is 25. The power of lightning is low, but because there is basically no resistance to lightning in the human body, it unconscious the opponent immediately. It’s a monster that must to defeat with a surprise attack, or It counter with lightning.
"We’ll return to the city at once. I"m glad both of us still have a consciousness, and there’s no continuing damage, if it’s a lightning. ” (Russel)
“Oh, but switch Olva with Calin, by my strength, it’s hard to run with Olva” (Jonathan)
"Ok!" (Russel)
Olva and Calin were switched, and we started running to return to the city.
It"s painful, but we managed to live. One day that [Thunder Liger] will be able to defeat if our level raised. I will threw this pain at that time fully.
Yes, I was thinking positively towards the future, that is, In other words, it seems not yet for us to do an unspecified hunting quest.
"Urgh" (Jonathan)
Suddenly, Jonathan screamed and collapsed on the spot.
"Jonathan" (Russel)
I confirmed the monster at Jonathan’s feet, I threw out Olva and set up my spear in a hurry.
This is a purple syrup-like monster. No doubt, this is a [Poison Slime] with a nickname as Novice Killer.
"Take this" (Russel)
With a spear stab, the poisonous slime scatters the liquids which compose the body of the Poison Slime.
Poison Slime recommended level is 10. Low endurance and you can bet it quickly if you attack immediately. However, it was said that it was feared as Novice Killer because It was difficult to see its presence, and the person who touched it will have paralysis.
"Are you fine? Jonathan, wait a moment, you’re paralyzed." (Russel)
"O, Oh, Urg" (Jonathan)
“Jonathan?”
Jonathan tried to say something with a loud voice.
"Be…hind" (Jonathan)
"!!!" (Russel)
I panicked and looked back also pointed my spear.
It was a big monster resembling a monkey. [Empine] The recommended level is 18. Even one-on-one I still a weak, and there is another one was creeping behind.
Moreover, there was a figure of the big [Empine] which equipped the metal armor and the sword in the other side of [Empine].
“Empine-General! "(Russel)
With recommended level is 28. Even for C-ranked adventurer it was nothing but for us it"s a death G.o.d.
There is no choice but to escape. But I can"t leave my friends.
My hand trembling while holding my spear.
While I was hesitating, the [Empine] began to move. Something glows at the edge of my sight. Suddenly, some arrows released freely from somewhere were stuck in the trunk of a nearby tree. Not only [Empine] in front of me. [Empine-Archer] also lurking around us.
That is not only one. The arrows aim were not myself, but they were aiming to my friends as well.
"d.a.m.n" (Russel)
The arrow pierced deeply into the back of the Jonathan who was not able to move by paralysis and two people who fainted.
kakakaka, Empine gave us a laugh. A high-pitched laugh, and the [Empine-General] comes closer. The huge sword held in his hand was the one attached to monster blood or a human blood.
"Uuu" (Russel)
I fell on the spot because of fear.
In this the situation, surrounded by the enemy with high the level difference. I can’t win. I can’t run away. It’s over. Die.
I didn’t know what an enemy would show up. I look down the unspecific hunting quest too much. We will pay the price for ignoring Ricariana-san advice.
[Empine-General] swings its sword.
I look it with my eyes and stared at the approaching blade.
"Like h.e.l.l I would let it happen!"(???) (TLN: Try guess who is this guys, :D)
Someone was protecting me and took [Empine-General] blow.
There is no metal armor on his back. The unkempt hair that was not groomed got into my sight.
"You.., you are Eternal E rank adventurer” (Russel)
That was certain Eternal E rank adventurer the cause making us go to this forest.
"Why, why are you here?" (Russel)
“Yo, thanks to Rika, please do not think that I would really head to this forest by my will” (Raigh)
The adventurer who had been called Raigh flipped the blade of [Empine-General] and returned it by force.
He was putting his sword down.
What are you doing in front of the enemy? That’s when I depicted my face in doubt. When I saw the red line from the shoulder of the [Empine-General] to the side, and the big body of it split up and down on the ground, I finally realized.
He didn"t put down his sword. He was swinging his sword at an unreasonable speed.
In addition, when thinking that his appearance disappeared like a haze, almost at the same time, a whirlwind blew in six places.
Three bodies of Empines that were in between the trees, and three Empine-Archers lurking on the tree ended without raising its voice and, as soon as they noticed, they were rolling on the ground.
"Are you okay?" (Raigh)
A man who knocked down six bodies of monsters in a moment stood right next to me looking into my face. The sword that had been holding it until a while has already been returned into its sheath.
I couldn’t return any answers.
He approached and slashed. I guess that’s all he did, but I could not see any movements. The moment less than a second, I could pick up only from the sound of the wind that blew up late and the afterthought of the excursion.
“You, you were not an E rank adventurer?” (Russel)
My mouth says that faster before I thanked him for helping me.
He little unhappily with frowning his eyebrows.
“I’ve told you so many times. I’m Eternal E rank adventurer. If you care so much, I’ll show you my Guild card. “(Raigh)
Indeed, a man in front of me was registered as a low ranked E rank adventurer in the Guild Card that he took out of his pocket.
But its strength is never that of E rank. I cannot estimate it, but I know that it is much higher than B rank adventurers.
“Okay, if you’re satisfied, you’ll get up and return to town, fas—Oi, you guys are all badly injured except you!” (Raigh)
"Right, Everyone!"(Russel)
Looking at him who changes his blood line, I remember my friends.
When he stood up in a hurry, I rushed to Jonathan, who had lost consciousness and tried to pull out the stabbed arrow.
"No. When the arrow is pulled out, the wound spreads, and the continuation damage increases.” (Raigh)
He grabs my hand and stops.
He was looking at the status screen that Jonathan was opened before he lost consciousness.
"It"s a lie, right?" (Russel)
I was too desperate to see Jonathan’s status screen.
Jonathan’s HP was already cut by a hundred, and the number was decreasing by one second. Continued damage caused by a large amount of bleeding. He’s not going to live in this way. It would be the same for the other two who received the arrows at the same time.
And if I calculate the distance from here to the town, I realized that treatment is already too late.
“F*ck… … Sh*t! Are you going to die here!” (Russel)
“What are you giving up, are you the leader of this party, aren"t you?” (Raigh)
He is forced me to stand up who was breaking into the place.
"I’m going back to town in a hurry." (Raigh)
“It’s useless. If you look at the status, you’ll know that you don’t have enough time" (Russel)
"No, I don’t know. I’m a person who can’t read status. ” (Raigh)
Saying things like little kid who still can’t check status.
“Normally, if someone is hurt in front of you, you go to help before you check on their status. That’s what we can do with your friends”(Raigh)
The man quickly stopped blooding the three, holding him on his shoulder, and finally turned his back on me.
“I will run at full speed, if you do not want to be left alone here, grasp my back firmly” (Raigh)
"All right" (Russel)
I nodded and clung to the his back.
"Let’s go. Don’t bite your tongue." (Raigh)
As soon as I said, he runs like a wind.
Continually cling to him desperately despite my efforts in hands that are likely to leave a tremendous wind pressure. It is a tremendous speed that seems to be eliminated if you get distracted even a little.
He never loosened his speed and proceeded to slip between the trees.
Fast.If this going like this it might be in time.
In front of us, further threats of unspecified hunting quests peel off its fangs.
A giant insect-type monster, Beast-type monster, appeared one after another and stood up on the course.
Among the monsters, there was also a monster of the recommended level over the previous [Empine-General]. Among them, the little insect-shaped monster that shines in silver were the killer [Hera Cross] of the Forest a.s.sa.s.sin who kills even A rank adventurer, and the recommended level is 47.
"It’s disturbing." (Raigh)
That – he swings away with all the swords.
If the point of the man who holds the sword is double, and it is thought that it shakes to the triple, the monster which appears becomes split one after another. It was just a flash of light. Even the small killer [Hera Cross], small but harder than the steel even the epidermis makes no sense before his slashing. The other monsters are dying altogether.
And, He didn"t loosen the running speed at all while fighting.
Only a myriad of corpses are built in the rut after pa.s.sing, and he goes on like a meteor.
It was a strange feeling.
There was no fear anymore, I did not feel anxious anymore.
The view over the back of the man just seemed to shine brightly. If there is a view of the hero, I will surely say this.
