The sky appeared to have reddened

Oofuia (オーフィア) and the others e She then made her way to the mountain

In several places, she saw frozen trees and noticed an ominous silence

They quickly h the area

Any reroup that they happened to come across iftly dealt with

By using the power, they quickly rushed through the mountain as there was no time to waste

The effect of the 『Purovidensu (神の加護, プロヴィデンス, divine blessing)』 had beco for her

Oofuia sends a fleeting glance to her rear

The hero, Hayato and his party are following behind her

His group was mostly uninjured; and thus, they volunteered to accompany her

It is unknown as to how h, with their few numbers, the women of 『Maruuna・Niyuuht up in a hopeless situation

With his knowledge about 『Ekusupuroodo (エクスプロード,to be underestimated

Certainly, Hayato’s opinion about a 『Ekusupuroodo (monster raids)』 is correct

She didn’t want to take theent The situation is dangerous even if there were a few

Above all, Oofuia wasn’t sure if she could defeat the re monsters alone

She had given them permission to accompany her

After leaving the village, they had traversed the mountain for several hours

What awaited them was a difficult scene to believe

Certainly, when they were ascending the mountain, they didn’t encounter many monsters

However, when they sense the danger, they wanted to run――

Theswariant thorny spider)

Around the area of the cave, there were e Atorabashi+ku corpses and squashed remains of monster that had yet to dissipate The scattered pieces ofaround

The Atorabashi+ku had left their territory to ith the group of monsters

In all her years, this is the first ti

Prior to Oofuia’s return

Kurando tries to question Yukishi+ro, but Yukishi+ro ran past him and went into the interior of the cave

「Hey,」 (Kurando)

Kurando i the monsters entree into the cave

A loud sound comes from the interior of the cave

「……things sound rather hectic Hey, someone switch with me」 (Kurando)

Saying this, Kurando ot a moment to breath

He passed by Diantia (ディアンティア)

It see, but she simply made her way to the entrance

In the roo its mouth with meat

Kurando noticed, in bits of places, the dyed spots of red on Yukishi+ro’s white coat

「You saved us, Yukishi+ro」 (Kurando)

――Mugg……gururr

Upon hearing Kurando’s voice, Yukishi+ro lanced at him before it wholeheartedly when back to enjoy its meal

「Wh, what happened?」 (Akari)

Akari asked Kurando a question

After taking a looked around, he noticed that everyone had gathered and is looking at him

「Yukishi+ro went to pull the threads of the Atorabashi+ku(s) and has led them here to the cave」 (Kurando)

Akari realized what he h, the women from 『Maruuna・Niyuumu』 jaws dropped as they tried to comprehend what had happened

She herself had experienced it first-hand; the other women have not, so they do not understand what it meant for Yukishi+ro to have incited the Atorabashi+ku

「Is that way Diantineesan is staying silent?」 (woman A)

「I see no thread, nya, where is it, nya?」 (Maanya)

「I cannot see it either, but――」 (Kurando)

After finishi+ng its room itself Kurando treated its wounds and then once roomed its fur until there were no blood stains left

――Gurr

It lightly growled and then stares at the corner of the room

Of course, there was nothing there

Maanya runs over there and searched the area

「There, nya, I want, nya! Why does it feel so strange?」 (Maanya)

Maanya, with both her hands, pulled the invisible thread

「Uhh」 (woman A)

「Kyaa」 (woman B)

「Yaa」 (woman C)

As the thread that was placed along the ground is pulled up, in surprise, the women raised their voice

Their legs and ared into various parts of their thighs and waist

「Don’t look」 (Akari)

Akari, as unaffected, glared at Kurando

Kurando chuckled as he made his way over to Yukishi+ro and then took out a brush

Yukishi+ro relaxed its posture as it showed a cocky expression

――Guoo

As if it was saying, “I will let you brush ave off

While chuckling, Kurando began to brush Yukishi+ro

At that moment, Yukishi+ro squinted its eyes and stretched out its tail

「H, how envious I want to fluff-fluff……」 (woman A)

「A~ah, nya, I will too, nya!」 (Maanya)

Maanya lets go of the thread and approached Yukishi+ro

However, Yukishi+ro heartless lifts its tail and restrained Maanya

「Nyaa!」 (Maanya)

Maanya who is restrained by the tail is thrown

「Unyaa」 (Maanya)

And thus, their playful act started

Fro to have a moment to rest

「Where is everyone! Switch with me!」 (Diantia)

When Maanya heard Diantia’s voice, she stopped playing with

with Yukishi+ro’s tail and ran away

「Just wait, when the chief hears about this you will be severely punished」 (Diantia)

Diantia whispered this as she walked by

Maanya face turned blue as she hurried towards the entrance to where the monsters are, froic extended froertips

「No, nyaーーーーーーa!」 (Maanya)

Maanya cry echoed throughout the cave

She rushed out to be the next vanguard on shi+ft

As Akari gave them an explanation, Diantia showed a shocked expression when she looked at Yukishi+ro and Kurando

「Certainly, compared to before, the rate of the monster’s invasion has decreased When I first saw the swarainst the horde ofto an end」 (Diantia)

Diantia stared at Kurando as he continued to brush Yukishi+ro

「Well you see, I don’t really kno things will turn out」 (Kurando)

Diantia, who had becohed

「Well, perhaps it ork out」 (Diantia)

Diantia doesn’t mention that this incident had extended their time

Currently, it is around et dark

For what Diantia had surmised, if Yukishi+ro had not returned, they would have only lasted until sunset

That was how bad their situation was

As she thought about things, Diantia is handed a meal
