65 # 63 Wakagi no Mori Victims.txt (1/2)

We arrived in the forest and changed members. The formation is the new group of Chess, Gale, Byakuya, Hiyori, and Yuuga. The reason for this is because we want to level up before we go to the next country. It's not suitable for night combat, but we'll have to be patient.

Then we entered the forest, and an unusually large number of monsters appeared. Maybe this is normal since I've been hunting only Deathnias up until now, but even so, there were a lot of them. Thanks to this, the level of the chess players is improving, but fatigue is also accumulating. We can't let them return to death, so we change to Lily, Setia, Gray, Toratetsu, and Konoha in the middle of the game. My aim is to improve Setia's magic skills. After all, a magician has to train his magic, right? I also decided to try out the rest of the new magic while I was at it.

Rave Root. When you set up a magic circle on your opponent, light will gather there and explode. It also damages those around the target and causes a low probability of state failure: darkness. The problem is that it takes a long time to activate.

Red Ray. Fires a red laser that looks like an infrared ray, and explodes upon contact. This is a single attack and very powerful. It's also very fast. It doesn't have any status disorders, but it's a useful enough spell.

Poison. As expected, it causes a high probability of poisonous status abnormality. Just like Shockbolt, it's a single target, but the high rate of attack is still nice. It's useful against hard enemies.

Vine Bind. Binds the opponent to a tree root for a certain amount of time. Unlike Paralysis, the opponent seems to be able to move, but this is apparently a definite magic that interferes with the opponent. It's good. Confirmation sounds like a good idea.

Freeze. Freezes the opponent at a high rate. The difference between freeze and paralysis is that in the case of freeze, the opponent is frozen, so it's harder for damage to pass through, and a small amount of damage is caused by freezing. It may be difficult to use this magic as you might think.

Icicle Arrow. A spell that shoots icicle arrows at an opponent. It's completely a higher version of Ice Needle.

Everyone levels up while trying out the magic. We also continue to collect well. And since Lily and the others are getting tired, they summoned Legion at the river in Desnia and were taking a break while everyone ate a meal, when suddenly Gray and the others were alerted.

Don't tell me it's an army ant?

I shine the light's magic on the wary side of Gray and the others, and someone's running in a rush. I check the marker and it's an NPC. And info.

'An urgent quest, 'A person in distress in the forest of young trees' has been reported.

Oh, I knew it was a quest.

'Lights!　Please!　Please help!

Apparently it's a boy. Anyway, tell me what you're running from. If you're an army ant, this isn't the place to help... and then the enemy appears, knocking down trees.

'Wow!'

Wolfman. You're fighting this guy again... but the experience is tasty and the materials are good. But it's a bit odd to identify it.

Wolfman Lv 10.

Monster Target Active

I can see the level and it's not a mid-boss, it's a monster. Is it getting weaker? Let's do it anyway. I use a shock bolt on Wolfman to stop him from moving. In the meantime, the boy reaches me.

'Huh, huh, ah, what about you?'

The Summoner's Tact. We can't talk to him at this rate. Let's talk about it after I take him out.

'What?　You can't beat that thing!

I think we can win.

Or rather, it would be an easy win. A total of eleven of my summons are gathered around me.

''Are we going to fight?　Tact.

Lily asks innocently.

'Oh. It's not someone you can escape from... this time it's all hands on deck. We're going to hunt this one with no mercy.

”I understand!

I got it!

With my words, everyone shifts into battle formation.

'Konoha and Hiyori, I want you to support them from the air.

Konoha and Hiyori take off into the sky on my command. Next, I give them the positional commands.

Lily, Aeon, and Chess will be the vanguard, and Toratetsu will be the rear guard. The rear guard is Toratetsu. On the left and right are Gale and Byakuya. Yuu Fang will be the support and Gray will be the boy's escort.

Everyone takes up their positions in response to my instructions.

Me and Setia will assist you with magic.

We'll take care of it!

Wolfman is freed from his paralysis and the Wolves gather around, screaming. That's a lot more than last time. Then Wolfman rushes in with the Wolves.

Last time I was watching them, but this time they're aiming for a melee... or maybe they're changing their fighting style depending on the situation? But I'm not naive enough to allow that to happen just because my aim is so obvious.

My spell is complete.

”Thunderbranch!

The branching lightning strikes the Wolfman and the Wolves around him. The Wolves are unable to fight with it. Wolfman doesn't care about it and rushes in.

”Lilly. Deal with him.

I got it!　Takt!

Lily activates her fighting skills and rushes in with her great sword at the ready. Wolfman also generates a claw skill.

''Heavy Slash!''

Gaaaaaah!

The two's special skills clashed, but the battle went to Lily.

''Yah!''

Gaaaaaah!

Wolfman is blown away by Lily's spirited blow. Meanwhile, we take on the swarming Wolves. Everyone responds well.

Aeon overwhelms the Wolf with his natural speed. Some of the Wolves got through Aeon, but what's waiting for them is an ice punch from Chess. Wolf is blown away. I've heard that bears can lose to wolves, but that's when the wolves are in a pack. There is no way a bear can lose to a wolf in a one-on-one match.

In the rear guard, Toratetsu is struggling, but he still gets passed over. That's where Setia's magic and Yuu Fang follow up. Even so, Gray finishes it off well as he is pulled out of the game. That's as good as it gets, senior.

The wolves on the left and right are pitiful. On the left, Wolf is chopped up just as Byakuya, wearing a wind blade, rushes at Wolf. Furthermore, using a sprint, Wolf seems to be hit and run.

On the right, Gale is scattering lightning. Hiyori was attacking the paralyzed Wolf in a haphazard manner and stopping him. That's bad.

By the time Wolfman came back, Wolf and the others had been wiped out. Yeah, they're all stronger now!

When Wolfman sees this, he is angry and rushes in, but Lily stands his ground.

'It's up to Tact. Your opponent is Lily.

Oh, there's a power to it that wasn't always in Lily's usual innocence and cheerfulness. Defeating Arthur certainly seems to have made Lily grow up.

And once again, their skills clash and Lily wins. He rushes in to put a stop to it further.

It's about to come. I prepare the spell.

Then Wolfman activates his trump card scream. Lily is paralyzed. Then Konoha quickly covers her with magic. And this time, because of the distance between us, we weren't paralyzed either. And I use the magic I was preparing for.

Clear!

Lily's paralysis is broken. And Lily's Heavy Slash hit the Wolfman and won.

''I've completed the emergency quest 'The Young Tree Forest Distressed'.

I successfully completed the quest and everyone leveled up except me. I'm a Wolfman, after all, so I have a certain amount of experience, but I guess I didn't have as much experience as the mid-boss. My skills have improved, and I'm happy with them. Now, what should I do with the boy who is stunned?
