Chapter 1142 (1/2)

Intermission: Zena's Squad Disaster

“Zena, thetype onesAs for the ones co ones, 10 medium-sized ones, and a lot of smaller ones–around 400 Most of them are insect types”

Rio co quite hopeless numbers Furthermore, those are just small portions of the enemies

We, the 24 people from Seryuu city labyrinth selected corps, are the core of the left wing unit that isof civilians, farhtened It's natural to be so, they're forced to fight monsters that they usually never even see while not even having decent equipments

“Hearthe eneood, we have elites that have survived fight with an upper deons, not wyverns There is no need to worry for things like small fry monsters or mid demons”

The Vice-Captain, sir Rilo encourages the ally He's slightly overbearing, but it seeood

I never iht e departed from Seryuu city

“We're doing well huh~, Zenchi”

“That's right, Lilio”

“Lilio-san, nevermind when you're in private, but call her squad leader Zena during the march”

“Ho~i, Iona sure is stiff”

Ionsan scolds Lilio

But, it's e to be formally called squad leader Zena

It's been half a et chosen into the selected labyrinth corps–abbreviation of labyrinth city Selbira training selected corps–after much hardshi+ps

We should have departed on the beginning of spring, but due to the will of Earl-sama, it's been accelerated and the corps has departed The captain and vice-captain ht have decided to sortie when they hear that the season for departing has changed since the snow falls late this year

The selected labyrinth corps consists of two knights squad with four knights and junior knights each, three uards, one scout each, and then, one engineer squads Beside those, there are two civil officials, and four servants

There are 30 es, maybe thanks to that sometimes thieves that can be seen on valleys or ainst us who have been teround labyrinth

“By the way, Zenchi”

“Yes?”

I answer cautiously Whenever Lilio asks like this, it's always nothing good

I receive the provision that Iona passes They're black bread that's roasted to be hard as stone, and bean soup Putting aside the taste, I'ician, Rodril, who's been used as a substitute of firewoods is dissatisfied, but at a tiic

“With hoe're going, shouldn't we catch up to him soon?”

I tried to keepreaction

What should I do? She would poke more if I answered with, “Catches up hom?” I somehow don't want to ansith, “We're still far away”

“Catches up hom”

When I was troubled with the reply, Ruu asked Even though Ionsan was silent, mou, Ruu

Look, Lilio is holding her laughter while having a really bad smile on her face

“The boy of course”

Lilio calls Satou-san with boy He certainly seeer than us from his looks, but I think Lilio who has baby face herself shouldn't call him boy It somehow sounds like a special nickname, I feel unpleasant to it Is this jealousy?

“Boy?”

“It's about Zensan's lover”

Iona answers Ruu's question

It's not, he's not my lover yet

Love story is a favorite of Ionsan, so it seems she can't endure it

However, please stop talking with , and makes me feels uncertain

The journey continues in this peaceful atmosphere for awhile, but it abruptly ends

“We're going to use traps for the ground ene to use bows for this Zena, and Norina, drop theht squads overrun them at once I leave the others to vice-captain Rilo Kill even one of them with all your power

Zena, and Norina, after you use ic power on the spot Two squads concentrate on protecting them Don't be lured and break out even by mistake”

Captain Derio tells everyone the strategy again

It see to clash with baron-sama unit We can see the cloud of dust between the bushes and trees from here

“Start the chants”

Vice-captain Rilo orders so since captain Derio's knight squad is departing The voice is powerful, typical of a man

Norina and I start the s I chant [Fallen Hammer], and Norina chants [Turbulance] Turbulance knocks down flying ainst a wyvern

The problem is there are too many enemies Unlike Turbulance, Fallen Hammer's area of effect is narrow It can only knocks down 10 le in order to have the spell casted in the center of the flock

“…■ Turbulance”

“…■■■ ■■■ Fallen Hammer”

I invoke theto the aim

We successfully swats down around 40 Tusk Horseflies to the ground Right after, the captain and his squad overrun the tusk dragonflies fro aside when the tusk dragonflies are flying, they're slow on the ground, they become victims to the spears and hoofs
