387-355 Get out of the forest area (4) (1/2)

The open space at the entrance to the cut-through was a little larger than a schoolyard.

As if to make it easier to fight, there was a flat area with only grass growing on it.

And there is only one tree that stands tall, blocking the path.

That's a ...... Trent, no matter how you look at it. It's a big one.

I'm sure you'll be able to find something that works for you. Elder Trent.

It's also visible in detection. And by the way, it doesn't have [Mimicry], does it?

It's not insanely big like a dindle, but it's big enough to be a giant tree.

Of course, it's nothing compared to the torrents we've seen in the past. ...... The diameter of the trunk is about three meters, and the height is about 50 meters.

It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're going to be doing and how you're going to do it.

It's probably going to start moving when you step into this square, right?

I'm sure it will.

It's too big. ....... Mee, there's nothing you can do.

Even with my weapon, it's too big. ......

She looked up at the Elder Trent branch and compared her own bastard sword with Mitya's, whose mouth was bent into a crooked grimace.

And so it should be.

It's not a branch, but rather a log.

In Trent's attack pattern, it would be like a log over 30 centimeters in diameter being swung down from high above your head.

A club wielded by an orc is in no way comparable.

Not to mention Mitya's main weapon, the small sword, even Mary's bastard sword would be tough to fight.

I'm not sure if there's anyone who can do that.

I'm sure you'll be able to understand why I'm here.

The toughest of our primary weapons is Mary's bastard sword.

Toya's weapon is a little thinner than Mary's because it can be handled with one hand.

Of course, because of the attribute steel, his weapon is much more powerful than weapons made of iron, but it is still impossible for him to cut a log with a single sword.

I'm not sure if I can find a sword that's stronger and sharper. I'm not sure what to make of it.

It's a physical limit, right?

A magic sword is a sword made of attribute steel through which magic power is passed.

The sharpness is greatly increased, but it is not insane enough to win a fight with a lump of iron.

I could cut through an untrained lump of iron, an Iron Golem, to some extent, but it was still half my arm.

That's where I lost.

It just fell apart.

Of course, it was too risky to try such a thing on the spot, so I tried it against the remains of the Iron Golem.

That was the last time I was back in LaFang.

So, in fact, the steel sword Toya is using now is the second generation.

Incidentally, the experiment was conducted by Toya without our permission, so he had to pay for the renewal.

I don't know the exact details, but I'm sure the cold wind is blowing in his pocket right now.

The attribute steel itself was melted down and reused, so it was probably cheaper than making a whole new one, but even so, it must have cost him a hundred gold coins.

We who can use magic - except for Natsuki - will attack, and the rest of us will support them, I suppose.

I'd like to think that we can handle Trent, but if we don't ......

What if it doesn't?

We run. The way we came.

When Haruka asked me back, I simply answered and pointed along the rocky mountain.

You can escape from the boss here.

There's no option not to run when things get dangerous.

But make sure you don't run into the forest.
