He held his sword in front of the rush of a group of dozens of madness boars (Madness Boars).


　If he used his sword like he did earlier, he would be able to defeat the madness boars (madness boars) without damaging his sword.


　Dozens of Madness Boars rushed forward at once, knocking down the mana wood one after another.


''I'm going!


　He dodged from the dozens of madness boars (madness boars) that rushed at him with a quick movement and slashed at once with his sword.


''Bumooooooooooooooooooo!''


　The smell of blood emanating from my companions excites the boars even more.

　The excited boar doesn't hesitate to hurt his friends and rushes forward to stick his fangs out at me, "Oops, I'm going to avoid it because it's going to hurt.


''Oops, it looks like it's going to hurt if it hits you, so I'll let you avoid it.''


　I avoid the rush of the madness boar (Madness Boar) with my lightened body one after another.


The only thing I'm going to bring back is the blood-sucking mushrooms on my head. As for the body, I want to use it for lunch, so make sure the head is clean and bled out.


　Gawain, who was carefully carving a blood sucking mushroom with a blood red colored umbrella part from the head of the first madness boar (Madness Boar) he slashed, ordered me to handle the madness boar (Madness Boar) for lunch.


'Huh, I'll do my best,'


　Speaking of which, I'm getting hungry: .......

　I'm constantly activating my body-enhancing magic, so I'm getting hungry fast.


　However, I don't think I can eat up this much.

　The portion that I couldn't eat, I'll just reduce the weight and load as much as I can into the pterodactyl and go home.

　It's a waste of skin and fangs and stuff to leave behind.


　I drew my lazy sword and sent my head flying with a shockwave to lunch the herd of madness boars (Madness Boars) that were swarming me.


'Phew, Master Gawain, it's over.


　The ground was stained red by the blood of the headless boars that had attacked me.

　Every single one of the Madness Boars had turned into motionless corpses.


''Good work, good work. You did a good job of getting the heads off. I guess we can get enough blood-sucking mushrooms now. Now, if you want to make a meal of it, you can use Flick's magic to quickly and easily roast the skin whole. I'll only need three.

'What?　Is that okay?　You don't have to serve it?

We don't have much time. I need a quick bite to eat and then I have to go gather more ingredients.

"Haha ...... I understand. I'm going to fill up on one, so I'm going to roast four whole ones.


　I neatly laid out the four carcasses of the madness boar (madness boar) I had on hand, and then I took the salt I always keep on hand on the porch and sprinkled more on it.


　It's not exactly a prep job, but with some saltiness, you can feel the flavor.


　I chanted the Firewall spell at the neatly arranged and salted Madness Boar (Madness Boar).

　The firewall was activated and the Madness Boar was engulfed in flames, and after a while, the savory smell of roasting meat tickled my nostrils.


　My belly cooed at the smell and pleaded with me to replenish my nutrition.


'I finished getting the blood sucking mushrooms over here too. I'll give you this one as well. You can sell your fangs for some money too, right?


　While roasting the meat, Gawain, who was cutting the blood-sucking mushrooms from the head of the Madness Boar (Madness Boar), gave me a large number of tusks.

　Although I didn't receive a request to defeat the Madness Boar, if I brought these materials to the Adventurer's Guild, they would take them back at market value, so there was no harm in taking them.


''I'll take it gratefully. The meat seems to be grilled, so let's have a quick lunch and go gather the next materials.

Oh, I will. Next time I need something a little bit harder and quicker to catch you alive.

Is it a hard and fast one: ......

Well, now it's food. Food.


　Gawain, who said that, had begun to carve a moderately cooked Madness Boar with his own knife and take a bite.

　I decide to follow Gawain's example and feed the roasted meat of the Madness Boar to his hungry body.



　When I finished lunch, I called the pterosaur - which I named Dimol - that was perched in a tree and waiting for me, and I bundled the lightened corpse of the Madness Boar into a pile and headed to the Grand Fortress Turtle for the next location. He was flying low, tree height thresholds to avoid being shot down.


　From the looks of it alone, Dimol doesn't look like he'll ever be able to fly: .......

　It's a normal flight: ...... Would Noelia be surprised to see this ......?


　There are about ten madness boars (madness boas) strapped to Dimol's back, but they are lightweight, so even if they were all put together they would only weigh about the same as me.


'Dimol, isn't it heavy?'

Queue!


　It seems to be a weight that is not too much of a hardship for Dimol, whose body is bigger than other pterosaurs.

　He was flapping his wings nimbly as he flew low and smoothly.


''When I return, I'll share some meat with you, so you can look forward to it.

Queue!


　When I said that and patted its neck, it purred as if it understood what I said and made a happy noise.


Now, we should be able to see the ancient ruins where the last material, the biological metal creature (metal slime), is located. There it is, there it is. That's it, that's it.


　Gawain, who was ahead of me, pointed to a half-crumbling stone ruin.


　When I was in the royal capital, I heard a glimpse from someone who was an adventurer's 'Excavator' who specialized in investigating, exploring and excavating ancient ruins, but it seems that places like that were left behind by a civilization that thrived before the kingdom was established.

　I heard that most of them are crumbling, but every once in a while, ancient documents and other artifacts are found, and they sell those things to collectors to make money.


　By the way, I have never entered these ruins.

　It's not a good idea to ask for a request to fight in the ruins for the reason that Alfine, who mainly chose the request, didn't choose the dark and narrow place.


　While he was thinking that, he arrived in front of the ruins and landed in front of the ruins.


''All that's left is to catch the biometal creature (metal slime) over there and then the collection of materials will be over?''

'Yeah, if you catch a couple of them, you could use them as a single piece of metal. They're silver slime, so don't lose sight of them. They usually hang around the entrance--but there they are.


　When Gawain pointed to the front of the ruins, a silvery, shaggy object was moving lazily.


''Those guys are sensitive to the presence of people. You'd better pack them up and capture them all at once.'


　I nodded without speaking and approached the biometal creatures (metal slimes) at the entrance to the ruins with a breathless smile.


　I guess they haven't noticed us yet.

　Can we continue to capture them .......


　When I got close enough to them, I accidentally stepped on a twig at my feet.


"!

They found you?


　The biometallic creatures (metal slimes), noticing my presence, began to move in unison to escape.


　If this was the case, they'd be able to escape.


　I immediately began to chant the Stonewall.


I began to chant, "Be a wall of stones, let it appear where my fingers point. Stonewall.


　The stone wall of the stone wall (Stone Wall), which was activated by the chanting I pointed at, begins to rise.

　The high stone wall blocked the escape route of the fleeing metal creatures (metal slimes).


There's no way out that way. Just give up and let me get you.


　The biometallic creatures (metal slimes) that were moving in front of the stone wall didn't seem to have given up yet, and when they found a break in the wall, they started to run away at full speed towards it.


''You can't let them!　Be a wall of stones, and let it appear where my finger points. Stone Wall.


　A new stone wall was created to eliminate the break and enclose it, cutting off the path of retreat for the biometallic creatures (metal slime).


There's no way out of this one. Give it up.


　The bio-metallic creatures (metal slimes), which they guessed were surrounded by a wall of stone, were huddled together, shaking and shaking with each other.


　I feel a little sorry for them. ......

　It can't be helped.


　I went down into the stone wall and managed to chase around the fleeing biometallic creatures (metal slime) with the sole intention of not getting caught, and managed to capture them in a leather bag.


'Huh, so that's it.'

Thank you for your hard work. Now that we've gathered most of the ingredients, we should be able to start working on it tomorrow. I think it's going to be a hell of a sword, so just look forward to it.


　Gawain grinned as he watched me chase a biological metal creature (metal slime) around on the stone wall with my body enhancements.


　Please, may they make a normal sword .......


　With that in mind, I tied up the metal slime inside the leather bag tightly to prevent it from escaping and unlocked the magic of the stone wall.
