"Gamerion".

　Husta mutters the name of the target monster. The white monster, devouring the internal organs of the goblin, stops devouring the internal organs of the goblin when he hears his voice and looks back for a moment with keen eyes.
　and when he found out that the two adventurers were there, he began to thrust his fangs into the internal organs of the goblin again, without particular concern.
　However, the tail swayed about 1m, and I was watching the situation behind me as if I were keeping in check.

"... Hasta, fortunately he hasn't noticed Sett. I'll get away from here and have Sett launch a surprise attack from above."

　Ray calls out to his tense back, but Hasta shakes his head slightly, holding fast to his estock.

"No matter how much you ask Ray to help you deal with Gamelion, you can't leave everything to Ray. Besides, there are conditions from your father."

　I remember Hasta's words telling me not to leave it to others but to fight myself.

"If you leave everything to Ray or Seto here, you're going to betray your father or mother. ...I'm sorry, Mr. Ray. Let me do it first. If there is nothing I can do about it, please help me."
"...is that all right?"
"Yes,"

　Hasta nods without hesitation and recalls the advice of an adventurer as he enters this meadow.

(It may be so, if you say it's a bit of a runaway.) But as long as the conditions are conditional, can't it be helped? and if it's in danger, we can touch it as soon as possible.)

　Ray, who breathes inwardly and nods softly.

"I understand, but I'll be in trouble if you die because you've worked with me." If it's dangerous, I'll touch it at once."
"Please,"

　Ray, watching Hasta hold up Estok, stands a little distance away to see what he can do.
　Of course, there is a death-size grip on the hand so that you can reach out immediately if there is any danger.
　In addition, Seto laid down on the ground to prevent Gamerion from fleeing, as much as possible as possible.

"... Here we go!"

　When she screams tensely but breathlessly, Hasta kicks the ground and cuts back her distance with an estock.Hmm!
　Gamelion, who noticed that he was approaching, also wagged his tail sharply...

"What!"

　a huster whose whip-wielding tail slows down with a Gamerion, and cuts the ground with its feet.
　The scene reminded Ray of a soccer slide he saw on TV while in Japan.

"Huh!"

　Of course, a blow on the tail is not as fast as Ray, who has extraordinary physical abilities. That would be the way to cut it off with a death-size blade or prevent it with a handle. And when it comes to the crunch, it's not impossible to avoid it with a single piece of paper. However, with Hasta's physical ability, he could not have done such a thing, and the result was the present sliding.

"Oops!"

　But it wasn't so unexpected for Gamerion to be able to avoid the attack. Goblin's corpse, which had been devouring internal organs for only a few seconds with some grumpy cry, is gnawed and thrown at the husta.
　It is only about the size of a human child, or well over 20 kg, even though it feeds on internal organs. If this had been a common weapon dagger, spear, or axe, as ordinary adventurers have, he could have mowed off the body of the goblin with all his might. However, Hasta's favorite is Estock, which specializes in thrusting, and of course he can't mow down the corpse of a goblin. Or, if you are prepared to break the weapon, you can do it, but if you do so, you lose your means of attack against Gamelion.
　In other words, the only way to deal with Hasta was to avoid it.

"I'm afraid I'll be beaten!"

　Shout as if to inspire yourself, pull out the knife immediately with the left hand of the person who is still sliding and does not have the Estock, and thrust it into the ground to stop his movement forcefully. At the same time, the corpse of a goblin passes right in front of the husta and hits the trunk of a tree a short distance from the ray, sprinkling blood-laden liquid around it.

"Ahhhuh!"

　Gamerion stopped moving after being struck by a sudden pause in his prey, but that moment was enough for Hasta, who believed in quick thrusts.
　Estock's sword point, released with a shout of spirit, hit the base of Gamelion's tail without fail. The body itself was covered with fur, which was highly defensive against attacks by the attacking line, but the tail was not covered with fur...

"Yuck!"

　Cutting off near the base of the tail, the screams from Gamerion's mouth echo around him.

(Oh, I'll do it.)

　Ray, who kept his death size so that he could follow him anytime, let out a sigh of admiration inside.

"Not yet!"

　Instinctively aware from his experience as an adventurer that this is his greatest opportunity, without seeing his tail fly a meter or so, Hasta brings out a sharp thrust again.Gamerion's fur is not covered with it, given its high edge resistance. And where the blow is lethal. an eye close to the brain If you stick an estock in your eye, you can destroy your brain. It was Hasta's only chance to defeat Gamelion at one blow.
　But even Gamerion knows his weaknesses, of course. And of course I knew how to respond when I was targeted in the eye contact.
　Shhhhhatch!
　The sound of metal bumping into each other echoes around. The sound originated from Estok, which Husta had thrust out. and... the sharp tip of the ear which is the blade of the Gamerion.

"What!"
"Ahhhhhhuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

　For Hasta, it was a thrust with the speed and sharpness that would undoubtedly rank high among the battles he had fought so many times before. But the giant rabbit in front of him prevented it with the edge of his ear. Even though I knew his ears were like knives, I couldn't afford to deal with a superior monster.
　and, having prevented Hasta's Estock with the edge of his ear, Gamerion opened his mouth to bite Hasta as if to show his sharp tusks...

"What!"

　It's already too late to pull back the played Estock and at least shield it. Gamerion's tusks take their own lives before Estock is pulled back. the next moment one thinks so
　Cut it!

"Gaa...aa?"

　Gamelion's head was cut off easily by a magical blow through death-size as he ran up into the air in his shoes and descended from a height of about six meters.

"...what?"

　The head with tusks, which would have been pushed against his body, is amputated, and a hoarse voice is heard from a huster who had been watching the scene of him passing by.

"Are you safe?"

　A guillotine amputation of Gamerion's neck is carried over his shoulder and asked.

"Oh, yes. Yes. Of course it's all right, but... Huh? Huh?"Hasta who turns her eyes repeatedly to the blood that is pouring out of her amputated neck and to the neck of Gamerion, which rolls a little further from her.
　But Ray frowns faintly at the blood that is pouring out, regardless of such austa.

"Can't you store it until some degree of blood is drained?"

　with a murmur of nothingness

「……」

　Hasta just looks at Ray in silence.
　I had heard the rumor. Still, as long as he's a rank D adventurer like himself in the end, there won't be much difference in combat power itself, even if he's superior to himself. Somewhere in my heart I thought it was because the ratings for Ray included Gryphon, a Rank A monster.
　But his skill in killing Gamerion, who was struggling with it. It was true that even if Gamerion had become a kind of a niece, concentrated on himself, he had decapitated himself in a single attack. All fur is supposed to have strong defenses against slashing.
　At this time, Hasta could truly sense the abysmal power of the adventurer.

"And I came to this meadow and knocked down the monsters I was looking for right away. What are you going to do? Are you going to leave now, or are you going to kill a few more?"

　Ray asks as if he doesn't care about his feelings.
　I get back to myself at once after hearing the question.

"Oh, you know, it's a limited-time monster that only appears here at this time of year, so the guild tells us not to kill more than five of them. So let's go back to the city of Gilm when we kill another one or two. Actually, I thought I'd be lucky to have one killed, but I didn't expect to find Gamerion as soon as I arrived."
"Well, by the way, if you say you live in the Devil Forest, don't you think that a daredevil adventurer will ever go into the Devil Forest?"
"Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah You don't have the audacity to go into the forest of evil spirits. There are monsters that I can manage, but there are monsters of rank B and rank A all over the place. And some of them are rank S monsters."
"...I see,"

　While nodding to Hasta's words, it reminds me of the dragon I saw when I was out of the woods. I wonder if Rank S means that kind of monster. It's a monster that will be heavy on me and Seto at least.At the same time, a magical jarm like a musabi that you encounter as you get out of the forest of evil passes through your mind.

(Now that you mention it, Gamelion is out of the wood, but what is wrong with Jalm?)

　When I and Seto came out, I was attacked by more than a hundred animals, but I remember Jarm's habit.

(I see, since it is nocturnal, is it okay to come out during the day?)

　While Ray thinks this way, Hasta dissolves, swallows and digests the surprise she had with him.
　Then he opens his mouth, changing his impression of Ray significantly.

"Well, Ray is amazing, isn't he?" I can't believe I'm going to kill Gamerion at one blow. "To be honest, I thought it might be because of Seto, even though he was said to be strong and strong, but I don't have that impression anymore."
"Well, I understand that my build is not suitable for adventurers. I've been involved with other adventurers many times."
"Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha for in that robe you can only see a short wizard."

　Rey smiles unconsciously at Hasta saying that instead of lifting her up to herself.

"Of course they got what they deserved." and you're going to kill two more Gamerions before you leave?"
"Oh, yes. If you could do that."
"Well, then it would be quicker to have Sett look for it again in the air." Well, I'm almost done with the bleeding here."

　Most of the blood that is already running through the body must have flowed out. The bleeding from the neck has stopped, and the smell of iron rust has spread around it.
　Is it the only relief that this is in the forest, and that the wind will soon scatter the smell?
　Touch the body of Gamerion and stow it in the mistling. Of course, don't forget the head Ray himself cut off and the tail of the part where the Hasta cut off.

"Well, set," In the sky again... Set?"
"Rolling".

　Ray tried to ask for another Gamerion from the sky, but Seto looked out of the forest where he is now and groaned in his throat as if he were wary of something.Then, the next moment, Ray's own acute hearing recognizes Sett's vigilant presence. All I hear is a scream. Gradually, voices are approaching as if they were shouting to get away with it'

"... Mr. Ray?"

　But it's only because Ray can hear it, and at the same time because Seto can hear it. As a regular human being, Hasta had no idea what Ray and Sett had found.

"Get ready! Apparently adventurers are being pursued. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

　Coming to this meadow, which is said to be influenced by the evil forest, it's self-responsible for anything that happens. That's how Ray asked, but it's also true that in his mind he was half-predictive of how Hasta would behave.

"That may be the case, but we cannot abandon adventurers who live in the same city." Besides, there are Ray and Seto today. --how brazen I am to rely on you."
"I thought you would say so. Also, I don't know what kind of monster is attacking me, but it's a great opportunity for me to collect magical stones. and Seto is fine, isn't he?"
"Gruly!"

　a set of nodding heads to leave it to one's
　Husta bowed his head and thanked one of them.

"Thank you!"
"Don't worry. I'll go before the adventurers who are being pursued do anything about it."
"Yes!"
"Ringling!"

　Two and one of them sprint out of the forest and back into the meadow.
　And the next moment we return to the grass, Hasta can see the adventurers running towards them.
　It was probably because there were very few shields in the meadow that we could see it. The four adventurers fleeing to the forest where the lays are. and the Gamerion that follows.So far it has been exactly as Ray had expected. The only difference is...

"Rare species"

　a muttering hasta
　Yes, the Gamerion chasing the adventurers was nearly three times the size of the Gamerion they had knocked down.
