76 Episode 74: The Beginning of Turbulence (1/2)

”Is this the first time you have met since the duel between you and Lars? I missed it a lot, Sora.”

Elgart Quiz, the top adventurer and first-class adventurer in the adventurer's Guildishka branch, smiled gently.

Stylish There is no separation between the words and the expression. It is called the fragrance of perfume that floats faintly, and the silver hair that is carefully stroked.

I responded coldly to Elgart.

”You want to share information about the Titis Forest. Is there any difference?”

Suddenly cut out the main subject. It is a statement that he does not intend to adapt.

Elgart's smile upon hearing that changed her smile.

Lider, who is waiting behind him, turns his gaze, but decides to ignore him with an unknown face.

Say what you need and hear what you need. That's all I need to do now.

”Oh, no, I'm worried about the monster runaway-stampeding out of the situation in the last few days.”

Elgart replied in the same way as he did, and responded in a similar manner.

Kama: Then, as I'll say from the conclusion, the depths of Titis are almost as if they are spilling over.

In that case, the demon on the outer periphery overflows out of the forest to be pushed out.

Elgart nodded, saying, ”Yes.”

”It's only a matter of time before the overflowing monsters come to Ishka?”

”Yes, and it's only a matter of time before deep monsters follow.”

Ishka will experience a monster raid of unprecedented magnitude-that's my conclusion of seeing the Titis Forest with this eye.

Monster Runaway-Stampede. The same conclusion as Elgart.

Elgart looked up at the ceiling somehow sad and muttered.

”... That's a nightmare again 20 years ago.”

”Twenty years ago?”

When I responded, Ishka's guildmaster responded with a sigh.

”This country has undergone stampede in the past, roughly two decades ago, when I was younger than you now. No, it was Skim Mountain. ''

Elgart said many towns and villages were demoted in the stampede.

An adventurer at the time, Elgart, faced Stampede with a party and lost two friends.

The city of Ishka was inevitable. The fact that the current strong barriers have been circumvented is said to be a lesson.

I raise my eyebrows and ask.

”Is the cause known?”

`` It is speculated that the increased volcanic activity has caused a drastic change in the demonic ecosystem. ''

… Is it a natural whim?

It may be better than the fact that it was caused by someone's malice, but it's a story that can't be done anyway.

This is not the case, however, if you are thinking about the past.

The conclusion drawn from Elgart's story is that the Titis Forest is now experiencing an event similar to volcanic activity.

The question is what the incident is.

Bloody smoke I accepted the guild's invitation simply because I wanted this information. Information and connections. In these two respects, the sword is no match for the adventurer's guild. This was an admissible fact.

…… Well, if the guild were to find out what was wrong, I wouldn't have to bother listening to me, and I wouldn't be able to touch the heart in that sense.
