Another side

How long had it been since they were attacked by the army of the immortals, a group with glistening red eyes.

Kitamiya felt that it had been about an hour.

"What the hell are these guys? One after another! South! What do you get?

The only thing I know is that they are undead, and in terms of strength, they are of the same class as the ones I usually fight, and that there is probably a magic circle set up somewhere that will spring up indefinitely if it is not destroyed. To put it bluntly, we are in trouble, aren't we? That's the situation, that is.

Do you need to joke around?

It's fortunate that they noticed it beforehand, albeit just before the attack, and weren't taken by surprise.

Kitamiya and Minami calmly observe the situation, while at the same time assembling and executing attack magic on one side and auxiliary magic on the other.

Meanwhile, Kaido, Amelia, and Masaru form up a formation.

It only took a few seconds, enough time for them to routinely come in and intercept them so that they could go into battle without confusion and thus deal with an army of immortals outnumbered by them.

"Let the big one go! South, timing!

"Yes, yes, yes, we're going to strengthen, that we are - Kaido-senpai will come back alive, that we are.

"Why am I the only one named? That worry is ominous!

The wave of cold air created by Kitamiya's ice-magic sweeps ices the undead in the visible area.

It's not long before the south's strengthening magic is activated.

''Whoa! Let's go! Katsu-kun Amie-chan!

"Yes!

"Yes!

You will be able to see that the opponents have stopped moving, and the three of you will be able to run as fast as you can.

This is the best move of the current party, judging from its appearance and behavior, as well as the method of attacking by granting bad status, mainly through miasma, that it is the same kind of guy that Minami has fought in the Immortal King's dungeon, and they chose to deal with him.

The trouble with the Immortals is that the debuff factor, granting bad status, comes with their normal attacks.

To reduce that danger, I stopped the move.

Good!

Pss!

Hi!

The undead, the things that have broken through the limits of life.

It refers to a being that never dies in its life span and is hard to be bound by time, staining the soul and transforming its existence.

Kaido and the three of them aimed and attacked a being standing in the rear guard clad in a dirty rag.

It is a Lesser Rich, an undead being higher in rank than skeletons and zombies.

They are good at magic and have high magic resistance.

They use low-to-medium level fire, water, and climate magic, as well as the dark and obstructive systems, making them a nuisance to deal with.

But on the other hand, the undead have low physical resistance.

The undead are not immortal just because they are hard to die.

If you are a high level species such as the elder vampire, the true ancestor, you can regenerate over time whether you try to erase your head, pierce your heart or extinguish ninety-nine percent of your body tissue.

But fortunately, the beings in front of us are not that hard to beat.

You can beat them by crushing their heads and hearts.

However, even if you can defeat them, the endurance of the Lesser Rich is about the same as that of an ant and an elephant, so you'll need a certain amount of skill to defeat them.

And although it is a Lesser Rich, it is usually accompanied by a skeleton with a shield or other vanguard.

Even when he fought in the dungeon, he never forgot his shield to protect himself.

"Be quick about it! You won't last long in ice restraints against the undead!

Naturally, the enemy this time did not fail to follow that theory, and was accompanied by a skeleton in fine armor, albeit covered in rust.

However, that was handled well and they posed no threat for now.

The skeletons that were about to move forward to attack were completely frozen to their knees, and they dealt with it by curbing their movements.

Kitamiya's magic is not to defeat the opponent, but to stop them from moving.

But as Kitamiya advised, it wouldn't last long.

With a being that doesn't feel pain, the ice's only restraint is its physical strength.

Skeletons are trying to smash the ice with their shields and some are trying to pull their legs out by force without regard to pain.

It's not possible to cover the entire body of the vanguard with ice due to the remaining magic power, so they could only be partially stopped.

But that little time was enough for them.

When the vanguard stops moving, you can dive into the small opening and strike the troublesome enemy first.

Achieve maximum efficiency with minimum effort, that's what they've always done in their work (dungeon).

Never mind the icy ground, the three of you run with a firm footing, ignoring the vanguard and attacking the rear guard for firepower.

Cut down the head, neck, and heart with your swords, smash them with your fists, and poke them with your daggers.

By the time the three of you have finished the job deftly and returned to a position where you can serve as the vanguard, the enemy's vanguard is ready to move, but with less firepower, it is less of a threat than it was before.

After a few minutes of enemy annihilation, you will have a brief respite on schedule.

How many times now? After the interval

It's the fourth time, and the interval is about five to ten minutes, that it is. And they seem to be attacking spirits and humans at random, that they are attacking people and spirits alike, but they are definitely after me and my testers.

It's a nasty story. The senior said that the other world is like this: be careful.

"I just said that includes it. That's not all. We don't want to stay here for a while, anyway. I guess we better get out of here.

"Shouldn't you go to the rescue of the other testers?

We should go if we had the energy, but we only have a one-way ticket to spare. The pace of battle is too fast, and our magic will not last long. It's better to evacuate as instructed by the guide than to move inexorably and slow them down.

As soon as the extraordinary phenomenon of the undead occurred, the dark elf who was guiding us only indicated the direction of evacuation, and in a flash he ran into the forest.

It's not that he escaped without leaving Kitamiya and the others.

They usually enter this forest and play the role of foresters who protect the living area of the spirits.

There are spirits in this forest who cannot fight well.

Your role as a woodsman includes protecting those spirits from the outside world, so you must guide them to evacuate.

As a bare minimum, the dark elf who acts as your guide has given you a map and a variant of a compass that keeps pointing in a certain direction, so you don't have to worry about Kitamiya and the others getting lost.

The number of immortals is expected to increase as time goes by, the only thing you should be worried about is the passage of time.

''That's fine with me, isn't it? Response!

" "!

"Wait, I'm on your side.

When the party's policy was decided and we were about to leave the place, there was a reaction to the southern warning net and we quickly prepared ourselves, but out of the forest came a group of people wearing special suits with forest camouflage patterns often seen in movies in Japan.

The weapons of the group were not automatic rifles, but swords, staffs, and knives, which gave a sense of fantasy.

However, due to the camouflage on their faces, it was difficult to distinguish them from each other due to the darkness.

"This is D3 Platoon, we have located Team Four of Testers. I repeat, we have located Tester Team Four.

The man at the head of the pack, who stopped Kaido from unleashing his attack magic with his hand, is contacting somewhere with a telepathic message.

And after exchanging a few words, he turned to face me again.

"We're the troops holed up in this forest under orders from Master Evia. This will be your ID.

You knew this was coming. ...... Our employee ID card. Also, it says you report directly to a supervisor, and I have a coat of arms.

MAO Corporation's employee ID card is said to be specially made and almost impossible to duplicate in a magical environment.

Without memorizing a person's magic and letting that specific magic flow, it is just a board, and the special coating makes it impossible to overwrite the text on the surface.

It's a convincing substitute for identification among employees.

You'll be able to find out what you're looking for, and you'll be able to find out what you're looking for, and you'll be able to find out what you're looking for, and you'll be able to find out what you're looking for.

In addition, the crest that indicates the supervisor's affiliation is the deciding factor.

Kitamiya nodded to the party to indicate that it was okay, and their next move was decided.

We'll escort them close to the village. There are reports that other units have engaged the dragon zombies in the path of the evacuation route. Follow me as I take a detour.

Breaking out in a cold sweat at the thought that they might have been involved in a battle had they evacuated straight away, they run off towards a course that deviates slightly from the direction indicated by the azimuth magnet.

It's a lot more noisy than the one we went to, isn't it?

"Yes, it was quiet when I came, but now it's ......

Various sounds coming from the surrounding area, starting with the sound of explosions, then lightning, the sound of water bursting, and the sound of trees falling, are far removed from the silence of the forest.

While running after the lead agent, who takes a course to avoid the battle, Kitamiya and the others look around.

As Kaido and Masaru said, the difference between going and returning was obvious, and although not caused by themselves, they still felt a bad aftertaste.

''What? Wait a minute!

Then Amelia called a halt to the surroundings.

The party reacted without hesitation to the voice, and without delay, the supervisor's men reacted before Kaido and the others, and stopped moving, alerting their surroundings.

"What is it, Amy, is it the enemy?

"No, ...... is not the enemy,

The first thing that comes to mind is the fact that you have to be able to see what is going on.

! Yippee! There's a genie that got away! You were saying in a little voice, "Help me, now Mo!

Finding a reaction in a certain direction, she huffed and appealed to Kitamiya that she wasn't mistaken.

''What? I can't hear you, but ...... South, what about you?

"My search range is not responsive, that it is. ...... Amy's search range is wider than mine, that it is.

Since Kitamiya doesn't have the skills in the search system like Amelia does, she can't make a decision, and even though she checked with the radar in the party, she can't confirm it either.

The only one who senses it is Amelia, and on top of that, they are in the middle of evacuating.

Normally, I wouldn't have the time to stop here, much less rescue them.

"Sorry to talk to you, but we're here to escort you home. There's no time to stop and talk. We'll contact the spirits' rescue. We'll let the dark elf foresters do the rest and resume our movement.

There is no way they can or will let you do it.

Everyone here understands that giving a poor sense of justice and acting on your own accord is a bad move.

But if asked if she could ignore the little voice of life that is still calling for help, Amelia would shake her head.

But her selfishness doesn't go unchallenged.

Even if she was the only one to start running, the party would stop her, and even if they didn't, someone in the unit would have stopped her.

But then, was this orchestrated by the heavens, or was it just a coincidence?

! Downstairs, that is!

The ground suddenly shakes.

And the scattered faces.

Less than a second too late.

Enemy, ghoul worm! There are three bodies!

Intercept!

The enemy attacked as if the timing had been misjudged.

Minami sensed a huge body moving underground.

It was a giant worm turned undead, a monster that only cares about preying on you.

Its prized shell is cracked and the miasma leaks out from the cracks, spreading the rotten smell around and making the hulk wriggle and rampage.

The violence caused by random eating and drinking, and the blank spaces created by it, where the thoughts switch.

Run, Amy!

"Yeah! I'm sorry!

What it did not miss was another personality lurking in Amelia .

The advice was given because I know that she is not lying and that she sincerely wants to go help, because she is inside.

Amie!

"Hey, this is not a good time to be acting alone!

"South! Enhanced magic!

I'm on it, that I am!

"Wait! Unsolicited actions! Huh?

In addition, Amelia is the fastest girl in the party, there is nothing to stop her if she is swept up in her emotions and starts running at the perfect time.

She has become a wind, leaving behind Kitamiya's voice of restraint, Kaido's impatience, Katsu's hand that she reached out to quickly, and Minami's response to chase her.

It was just good intentions that drove her.

The others are not heartless enough to let it go.

One of them worried about her sister-like existence, the other was saddened by the fact that she would be angry with them later, while the other sympathized with her actions, and the other laughed at his own naivety in not being able to leave her behind even though he thought it would be troublesome, and ran with all his might to chase her.

The devil's men stop them, but a storm of violence unfortunately interferes with their efforts.

Amelia ran as fast as she could through the twists and turns of the situation, ignoring all the immortals along the way, and at last there it was.

I found it!

In a large wooden hollow, the little red dog, no bigger than a puppy, spat fire to scare away skeletons and zombies, but those little flames were not enough to burn.

It was all you could do to slow them down, not to keep them from getting closer.

And behind the red dog, the other little spirits were huddled together and trembling.

Mike! Be alert!

"All right.

Seeing this, Amelia accelerated further as she came here to be the wind.

When she asked for unintelligible instructions for her roommate, she attacked the army of the undead with a dagger in her hand.

"Three on the right!

"OK!

Cut off the head of the nearest zombie and use its shoulder as a foothold to kick the head of the skeleton.

Keep running around, trying not to get her to locate you.

They move around flamboyantly to reduce their numbers and draw attention to her.

Then the wolf zombies, the undead wolves, swarmed and attacked Amelia.

Unlike the humanoid zombies, these beings move fast.

Mike is on to it and Amelia is on to it.

All the while, Amelia grows impatient as the horde of the undead slowly approaches the spirits.

"Amie, come around on the right.

"That's it!

"Just make sure you're fast enough.

Just looking at the scene with a sidelong glance, impatience slowly built up in my heart, and my movements began to become a chore.

The dagger sliced through the undead wolf's face and was about to run out to the spirit in a straight line when Mike gave the order.

For a moment, she almost objected to it, but what little reason she had left to think about it dissuaded her and she ran as fast as she could.

She used to be a candidate for bravery with hidden talents.

Even after being hired by the company as a part-time worker, she continued to train her talent and passed through the slightest gaps as if she were stepping on a dance floor.

Without slowing down, she managed to come around to the right.

"The rest is a straight line, as long as you run through as fast as you can and get in front of it!

I'm out!

But that's .

"What do we do now?

"Mike!

"Well, I thought I'd assuage your concerns for now, but now that I think about it, you're the type to move around and fight,

I was merely jumping into enemy territory.

As a result of following Mike's instructions, I put myself in a position to shield the spirits behind me, but that position was a dead end.

It's a simple matter of being cornered.

Mike's action was intended to relieve Amelia's impatience, but it turned out to be a negative.

Amelia glanced at the stinging gaze from behind her and then couldn't help but smile at the number of immortals slowly approaching from in front of her.

''What do I do?''

It's not a good idea, but it's not a good idea at all.

But it's not a good idea. Look! You should charge in!

"We're in for a rude awakening! Totally

"Come on, South, get to work!

Wait a minute. It's really hard after a full-on effort.

As if to dispel her fears, icy arrows rained down, and a man flew in after him.

Followed by the sound of blows.

A ward is set up in front of Amelia.

Guys!

One by one, the immortals dwindle.

"See, Amy, move your hands. I don't want to go this far and achieve nothing!

Amelia smiled for a moment at everyone who followed her in her selfishness and said, "Yes!

Yes, it's going to be okay, just wait for me!

He smiled the same way to the spirits behind him that it was okay and ran off again.
