The Strongest Hunter Who Was Not Allowed To Hunt Monsters Joined a Cooking Guild - Chapter 49
Chapter 49
After the battle, I was exploring the area where Stardust Oaks and the monsters went.
After all there are no footprints, claw marks, feces, etc.
I think it smells at least, but Rir just shakes her head.
Apparently it’s odorless.
Moreover, there is no certainty that the subject is Stardust Oaks.
It’s a very troublesome opponent.
“Zelet, is this fun”
“Hmm? It’s not fun, but …”
“Because you were laughing now, you”
Am I laughing?
“Sho, it always is fun when dealing with S-rank monsters.”
“Wow! “
I agree with Prim and Rir.
Really. Am I having fun?
Well, it’s not possible. Even though the rank is “A”, the opponent is a monster that is said to be a phantom.
And we are in the process of searching for it.
However, the stronger the monster, the more troublesome it is, the more I want to go beyond that.
You can see that each time you defeat one monster, you become stronger.
That’s why I can’t stop subduing S-rank monsters-I was aware that I had that desire.
“Pamela, can you discover some traces of the monsters you just saw with your spiritual vision?”
“I’ve been doing it since a while ago … Zelet, the spirits are insanely angry.”
Pamela has a bitter smile.
That’s why the Etowafu Forest feels noisy.
Suddenly, a large number of monsters rushed into the quiet forest. The spirits would have been surprised too.
In addition, it is a Gubagara tree.
Even just one of these can destroy the forest ecosystem. For that reason, the spirits are angry.
It is not suitable to look at it even if you squint, but it seems that a spirit protesting with a placard comes into view.
“Kyururu ~! “
“Kure also wants you to get rid of the Gubagara tree.”
“I wanted to plant that in the mountains, but can I get rid of it after we find Stardust Oaks?”
“What do you mean, Zelet?”
Stardust Oaks and the monsters that seemed to have arrived came from the roots of the Gubagara tree in the forest.
At first I thought it might have reacted to the smell of the Gubagara tree, but it ordered the puppet monster to attack the Gubagara tree instead of us.
“In other words, is this Gubagara tree affecting the Stardust Oaks?”
“It’s kind of harassment, though.”
For example, the effect of hallucinations due to the magic of light attributes, which it is good at, is slowed down.
In any case, it is early to cut down this Gubagara tree now. It’s bad for the spirits, but let’s leave it as it is until the subjugation.
There seems to be no clue so far.
What I found out is that Stardust Oaks can use the light attribute magic of the hallucination operation system, and it does not mean that physics does not work at all.
“…”
Rir raises her face and moves her ears.
Prim is also wary of the area.
“Zeletto, the spirits …”
“I know. Pamela should keep her head down.”
“No……”
At that moment, I heard a sharp bow sound.
A single arrow pierced the ground while drawing a large arc.
It’s not a crude arrow like a goblin with a dexterous hand.
The tip of the arrow is made of polished iron, and the feathers of the eagle are also used. Probably made by humans. Looking at the fact that it is made quite elegantly, it is highly possible that it is a government-supplied product.
“I’m used to it …”
I’m trying to make a semi-circular enclosure at a distance.
It’s not a bandit’s move. Probably an army.
Is it difficult again? Would you like to show off your power and scare me before the enclosure is made?
“Rir, subdue. Not to kill.”
“Wow! “
I pat Rir’s belly.
At that moment, the god beast Wolf jumped out. Jump over deep bushes, bite off the flying arrows, and just run straight into the depths of the forest.
“Gyaaaaaaaaaa !!”
Screams.
The soldier disguised as a bush is turned over.
When laid down by Rir, he becomes frantic and tries to escape.
Rir picked up the bow from the soldier and turned around and ran to the bush on the side. She attacks the hidden soldiers and also incapacitates them.
As she repeats this process, Rir quickly lays down several soldiers in armor.
They pointed the tip of the arrow toward Rir, who had defeated the soldier in an instant.
Watching the time, I make a loud voice.
“That’s it!”
It echoes in the forest of Etowafu.
“The soldiers aren’t dead, but if I order a word, they’re in the afterlife. If you don’t resist anymore, I’ll release them.”
I talk to him, but I don’t get a reply.
“Can you lose the brave soldiers of the Kingdom of Carneria !?”
With a louder voice, I approached the other party.
I thought it wasn’t such a character to preach the preciousness of life, but it seems that it was understood.
The enclosure broke and a knight approached.
“Who are you?”
they took off the full-face helmet.
Then, red hair overflows. Yellow-green eyes reminiscent of a sharp knife on brown skin, which is rare in this area. And next to the face, characteristic pointed ears extended to the left and right.
Is it a dark elf …
Most of the people of the Kingdom of Carneria are elves, but dark elves also live in larger numbers than in other countries. This woman is one of them.
“Is it the Knights of Carneria? What is it for such a forest?”
I see the coat of arms on the female knight’s breastplate. An imaginary beast with a snake’s tail on the eagle was drawn.
“I’m asking this? Who are you?”
“My name is Zelet Winter.”
“Zelet …. Zelet Winter …”
The face of the female knight in front of me becomes even more cloudy. I felt like her face was redder than before.
Apparently, she knows me.
It’s only known to humans in other countries, but it seems to be close to the infamous kind of reaction.
“Calm down, Knight. What are you so angry about?”
“Am I angry? Oh. I’m angry. Don’t give that name in front of me.”
Huh? What does it mean?
No way? Rather, you’ve been glaring at me for a while … What the hell is this?
“Hey! What do you mean, Zelet? This person is really angry.”
Reading the air, Pamela whispers to me.
“You, no way … a lover you abandoned a long time ago …”
“” Oh !! That’s not true !! “”
When I screamed, for some reason even she screamed in sync.
Pamela’s eyes become more and more suspicious in response to the perfect breath.
No no! impossible! I met here for the first time today.
She can’t be a lover.
“In the first place, I have never had a lover !!”
When I declared it, it was Pamela who had trouble reacting.
“Oh, yes … That’s right.”
She crossed her fingers and turned red.
She shook her body and looked happy somewhere.
What is the reaction!
You know Pamela. I’ve been catching monsters all the time. I was so busy that it wasn’t the case.
“What’s your name in the first place?”
I forcibly changed the story.
The female knight looked indignant and stared at me.
“My name is Annette Bruce Laghouat. Deputy Chief of the Knights of the Kingdom of Carneria.”
Annette ……? Deputy Chief of the Knights …?
No, I don’t know at all.
What does it mean?
Why is this woman angry?
“Forgive me! To give that name in front of me … I will never forgive you!”
Annette pulled out the sword that was hanging on her waist and turned the tip toward me.
“Wait, wait. What did I do to you?”
“Don’t get confused, a scammer”
“Well, a scammer?”
“Maybe it’s a marriage scam?”
Pamela, it’s complicated, so shut up.
“You can’t be Zelet Winter!”
“Huh?”
” I’ve been longing for Zelet Winter! !! “
Ghan!
I heard the bell ringing in my head.
TLN : The dark elf uses dono for zelet, should I continue that?
