Alone in the Great Forest

A loud bang echoed behind him. It's starting, Hikaru thought.

He already took into account that monsters were going to charge straight for Borderzard. If a town got destroyed, the chances of the ceremony getting cancelled would be high. Borderzard had to be defended no matter what.

「I'm going too.」Lavia said after Hikaru told her he was going to the forest to back up the subjugation team.

She insisted she was perfect for taking down groups of monsters. He felt reluctant to send Lavia some place dangerous, but in the end he gave in.

「I have Stealth too, so I'll be fine.」she added.

Hikaru himself knew just how powerful the Stealth skill was. He edited Lavia's Soul Board so she could move independently.

【Soul Board】Lavia

With this even if Borderzard fell, Lavia could escape. Hikaru instructed her to run once monsters entered the town.

A moving artillery equipped with a Stealth function. Terrifying.

Hikaru hoped Lavia would gain a few ranks from killing hordes of monsters. Once she started firing her spells, she would definitely draw attention. Unfortunately they couldn't do anything about that. She could just take advantage of the confusion to escape. As long as no one saw her face, withdrawing would be easy.

What are the chances they will win? 70%? 80%? Either way, I can't fail.

Hikaru didn't expect Lavia to kill all the monsters. The other adventures could handle the rest. At this point, however, Hikaru didn't know that the Four Stars of the East were in Borderzard.

The forest…

The sun still stood high in the sky. After traversing the wide plains, Hikaru set foot into the forest. He used Detection to sense monsters nearby, proceeding onward while avoiding monsters moving in groups as much as possible. He just had to go towards the direction the creatures were running from to find his target.
