Chapter 12 – Mass Outbreak of Monsters – 2
Estee stood up. Also, a translucent bow appears from the empty space where there is nothing to know when it appeared.
In this case, you have to follow the leader’s words. He prepares to fight As soon as ISTY let go of the bowstring, there was a refreshing sound cutting through the air.
The heads of a group of more than ten orcs exploded in an instant.
Whoops, I caught my breath.
“I dealt with it.”
What just happened?
The orcs weren’t even standing in a line, but one arrow pierced the vital points of the orcs while drawing an absurd trajectory.
It was so destructive that it could be said that it exploded.
“Decal?”
Estee looked back at me.
“Surprised···.”
When I say kill it, I don’t mean to fight because I will attack first.
He said he would take care of it in an instant.
“Orcs are easy opponents for me.”
Estee let out a cool breath.
No, not all elves are as strong as this one, are they?
If that were the case, humans would have gone extinct.
At that time, when I first talked to ISTY. What would I have become if I had been slightly wrong?
It was the moment when I suddenly realized what kind of person I had hypnotized.
“Ah, I need to collect souls.”
I took a large soul stone from my personal storage and collected the orc’s soul.
“Let’s go. There is an orc this way.”
Are there orcs?
Estee, seeing as far as she could see, strode forward and started shooting and killing all the orcs.
It was great. I had no words to say that it was so great.
Shoots a bow in a graceful posture, and the arrow accurately removes the target.
Whether there were trees or bushes, it didn’t seem to matter to her.
With such an overwhelming difference in fighting power, I was just a porter who sucked souls.
But, well, it wasn’t a bad feeling.
Even just looking at Isti’s pretty side face and her tense posture while she was concentrating on it was enough fun.
I’m probably the only one who can see an elf hunting monsters this close.
Then I got curious.
“How the hell do you find it so well? Can you see it?”
Isti was amazing at her skill at finding orcs.
No matter how massive the outbreak, her skill at pinpointing the group wherever she went was enough to stick her tongue out.
However, Isti said in a calm tone, without showing off herself.
“Anyone with gold or higher can do it. This is a search skill.”
“Search skill?”
“A skill that reads the signs and signs of monsters and finds their location.”
It certainly seemed like a skill that every Hunter must learn.
She followed Isti around and as she watched the orcs die, all her tension melted away.
Isti gets rid of the orcs before she even notices that they have killed themselves.
“Whoa.”
The first thing she did was a short sigh.
I don’t even sweat.
“Do you want to drink this?”
I handed over the goddess’ water bottle.
“Thank you.”
“I’ll catch you next time. I’m bored.”
After Isti finished drinking the water, she laughed out loud.
“Okay. I’ll look after you if it’s dangerous.”
Really reassuring
“Then… The place where there is only one…”
Isti seems to be able to figure out not only the location of the orcs, but also the number.
“This way.”
I followed it and saw that there really was an orc wandering around.
“Good.”
I immediately cast a spell.
I didn’t notice this, so I overcharge with the focusing bracelet.
“Fire Arrow!”
The maximum power of the fire arrow was inserted into the orc’s back.
The orc received a strong shock and fell forward. He doesn’t seem to be moving, but staggers to his feet.
“It’s tough.”
It had the power to shatter the skeletons in the Bordeaux Dungeon.
Overcharging once more…!
“Fire Arrow!”
The orc no longer moved.
(Level has risen)
Two shots with an overcharged Fire Arrow. It would be dangerous for me even if there were only three of them.
“I got you, Estee.”
Estee said with a smile.
“It was great.”
Thank you so much for saying that.
“I didn’t know that Decal used magic.”
“I got it from that goddess. Basic magic for self-defense.”
“I think it’s much stronger than other people’s Fire Arrows I’ve seen.”
That’s a good eye
“I can overcharge my magic. Thanks to this bracelet.”
“Maybe the decal can help you get stronger.”
“I?”
I was expecting him to teach me some new magic, but ISTY suddenly pulled out an arrow.
It is the translucent glass arrow she uses.
“Use magic to light the arrowhead.”
I cast a fire arrow as ISTY told me to, and lured the arrow head to catch fire.
However, because it was a magical fire, the fire did not easily spread.
“It’s not going well.”
“It’s okay. Be patient.”
Following Isti’s guidance, she attempted to keep the arrowheads on fire.
Then, a message I had never seen before came to mind.
(You have acquired the Fire Enchantment.)
“This···.”
“It’s the most basic fire property magic. You can learn it when you want to give elemental properties to things.”
“Oh.”
Does this flaming arrow mean that I and ISTY collaborated?
That’s cool.
“And···.”
Isti shot an orc passing by.
(Level has risen)
Then my level went up.
“If you do this, the decal can grow too.”
“Are you the worst?”
It seemed that because I had enchanted the arrows, I had contributed to the killing of the orcs.
Originally, I wouldn’t be able to gain experience from the monster I defeated with the ISTY Hall, but it’s possible with this method.
“I didn’t know it would work because it was the way I looked over my shoulder.”
“Should I call you Master at all?”
“…”
ISTY suddenly stared at me.
“Huh? Why?”
“Do something better.”
ISTY begs with a charming voice.
I kissed Estee. He casually wraps his arms behind his waist and massages his ass like mine.
ISTY didn’t show any displeasure and just tongue-in-cheeked with me.
“Do you like this?”
“Dekal’s lips taste better than water.”
If it wasn’t for the forest, I could have knocked it down.
No, if it wasn’t for the forest where the fat monster with a blade roamed around, I think I would have knocked it down even if it was in the forest.
“Anyway, for Isti, Orcs are easy opponents.
Then can you teach me a useful skill?”
“A useful skill?”
“Like the search skills I mentioned earlier.”
“Okay. I’ll teach you.”
Skill classes directly taught by diamond level hunters, isn’t it a complete benefit?
In addition, every time she kills an orc, she even gives me experience points.
This was huge
It was because, without exaggeration, Isti’s speed at dealing with orcs was more than ten times faster than mine.
“For the search skill, you must first focus on the footprints, traces, and signs left by monsters.”
“Footprints. Is this it?”
“Yes. There are a lot of monsters around here, so if you keep watching, you’ll learn the trick. Let’s keep going.”
We have an appointment for our hunt.
When ISTY draws an arrow, I give it the fire attribute.
MP wore out quickly, but that was a problem that could be solved by drinking water.
And Isti was a skilled person who could kill more than 10 orcs with a single arrow.
I madly absorbed all the experience points of the Orcs in 2 or 1 second.
(The level has risen.)
(The level has risen.)
(The level has risen…)
It wasn’t just the level that went up.
Fire enchantment proficiency rises! The fire enchantment, which I struggled with at first, was able to be applied like a sticker in an hour.
The result of diligently searching for traces while entrusting the battle to ISTY and only enchanting.
(You have learned Search.)
Oh···! Interesting!
After learning the search skill, there was an effect of improving visibility when looking at traces.
For example, a halo of light could be seen in the footprints left by the orcs.
When I focused on that halo of light, I could feel the direction the orcs were heading.
It was impossible to figure out the location, distance, and even the number of people like ISTY, but… I knew how to do it.
“I learned? Search skill!”
“Really?”
ISTY was happy with it as if it were her own work.
We killed the orcs living in the forest with the momentum to dry them.
Istiga to be exact.
At the same time, it was easy to meet adventurers who were surrounded by orcs and were in danger, but ISTY saved them with a single arrow.
At first, the group of adventurers, unable to grasp what had happened, looked at Isti and bowed her head.
“Did you just see it?”
“White hair, elf, possessed bow skills. It’s a [Noble hunter].”
“Wow.”
I knew very well why they were moved by ISTY.
However, when Isti always saw people, she would hurry up and leave.
As if they were afraid that they might even talk.
“I guess I’m grateful to you.”
“I’m not interested. Everything is fine except for the decals.”
With this ability, a mystery that doesn’t relate to anyone.
It deserves to be famous.
Since I’m keeping my mouth shut, Isty walks over and says,
“Decal wants me to be nice to people?”
“No, I like Easty as it is now. There’s no need to forcefully change it. It’s fun to hang out with you like this. Oh, there comes an orc.”
Fire enchantment!
Isti skillfully handles the bow and kills the orcs.
Now I know how many fell down just by listening to the sound. Did he die at least seven?
“I’m happy too. In the past, it was impossible to go hunting with someone…”
I must have.
Because that was before I was hypnotized.
“Shall we hold on a little longer and rest?”
“Huh.”
A total of four hours with ISTY.
He had dealt with countless orcs. It wouldn’t have been possible if I had been alone.
Combined with the timely event of a large number of monsters, the fantastic condition that I share the experience of the monsters ISTY hunts.
I was able to achieve tremendous growth in a really short time.

After leveling up tremendously, I felt a physical change.
My whole body was full of strength and vitality. I felt a sense of fulfillment where everything was pulled tightly to the center of my body, and I felt that my stamina had increased considerably.
As if proving that the level of ability is not simply increasing, I felt that my head became clearer and my movements became more agile.
I didn’t realize it at first, but now that my level has risen, I do.
I’m getting stronger
We rested on a flat rock as a chair.
Share a glass of water in the water bottle and take a breather.
“Esty, thank you for helping me. Why did you think you would raise me like this?”
“A while ago, at the adventurer’s guild, when that long-haired man was talking.”
“Huh.”
“It pissed me off when I saw decals ignored. I don’t care how other humans see me, but I hate seeing decals ignored.”
“So I was struggling with how to raise my rating? Isn’t that disqualification as a leader?”
Isti is taken aback when he says something nasty.
“That, that’s it.”
“It’s a joke. I’m glad.”
“…”
Estee leaned on my shoulder as if she was relieved.
While doing so, I suddenly remembered.
“Is there any useful defense skill? If there is one, I want to learn it.”
“Defense skills? Hmm… I use spirit magic to protect myself, but spirits are so picky that it’s hard to get close to them right away.”
Do you have a spirit?
“Wait.”
As ISTY put her hands together, a sudden breeze blew.
Isti stared at the top of his hand and he said nothing.
“What are you doing?”
“Shh.”
. . . It seems to be doing something it shouldn’t be doing if it gets in the way.
After ten or so, ISTY told me.
“It’s okay. A spirit will help Decal. I’ll sell one.”
···It’s a sale···.
It felt like getting a puppy.
“Thank you, but… I can’t even see a spirit.”
“I don’t show my face well because I’m embarrassed.”
“Is that so?”
“Huh.”
ISTY put something in my hand.
Strangely enough, I knew there was nothing there, but I felt a pleasant breeze swirling around.
(You have learned the spirit of wind.)
“Oh, I learned something.”
“When you want to convey a message to the spirit… You can convey it with your thoughts. Decal will always follow you.”
Hmm···.
“Esty, wake up.”
Estee stood up with a puzzled look on her face.
Roll up ISTY’s skirt!
…
A really artificial wind blew, making Isti’s skirt flutter and flutter, revealing a glimpse of her undergarments.
“…Decal.”
“It’s a joke.”
Looking at ISTY’s cold eyes, I was stunned.
“If you communicate with the spirits often, you can handle strong winds.”
“If applied, can it be used for defense?”
“That’s it.”
I thought this would be more useful than I thought.
Because orders are given through consciousness, not words, there is no loophole.
Today, thanks to ISTY, I learned a lot of useful skills. These are things that will always help.
Estee suddenly turned her back. Looking at what was there, an orc was running this way.
There’s something strange about the atmosphere. It’s like we don’t care and we’re having a hard time.
But I didn’t even think about it and put a fire enchantment on ISTY’s arrow.
The orc with arrows stuck in his thick body could not overcome the running speed and fell forward.
Behind the dead orc, there was a woman with an absurd face.
“Huh!? The one I caught!”
Surprise outweighed her bewilderment that she had unexpectedly taken the orc she was holding.
A yellow ribbon in her vivid red hair reminiscent of Belleira. The pretty female swordsman with her ponytail was petite, but her breasts the size of her head and her thighs spilled out of her clothes.
In fact, if it hadn’t been for the short sword she was holding in her hand, she wouldn’t have even known that she was a swordsman.
It is an obscene body that can be said to be violent. Its appeal was that Istyrang projected in a completely different direction.
“It’s ridiculous! Both of you, keep your mouth shut. Are all adventurers like that?”
I missed the timing to speak because I was appreciating the woman, and ISTY didn’t seem to have anything to say.
“I didn’t know because I couldn’t see you from here. I apologize.”
He squeezes in between Isty and the woman with a fresh face.
“Huh.”
The woman glanced at me with her arms folded under her breasts.
“It’s not you I want to apologize for. Isn’t it the one who did the wrong thing to apologize?”
That’s right.
Estee will probably never apologize.
As expected, I was listening and not listening. Rather than trying to incite his anger, I just wanted to see that he wasn’t interested.
If I wasn’t here right now, what would ISTY do? I would have just turned around and gone.
“Are you listening? I have that level of skill, but I hide behind a man and don’t talk! It’s lousy!”
The woman was as fiery as the color of her own hair.
Are all red-haired women like this? I’m talking to ISTY over my shoulder.
“Are you listening? Elf!”
“Decal. Aren’t you going?”
“Let’s solve it nicely. It’s true that we made mistakes.”
There is nothing to hypnotize about this.
Rather, I want to write for a different reason. Looking down from above, it was a body I really wanted to hug.
If I did without hypnosis, that shortsword would stick to my stomach.
“Sorry.”
Estee apologized honestly.
“What? You know how to say it. Be careful next time.”
The woman coolly turned around.
“Wait. You’re not an adventurer. Are you catching orcs here?”
“By the way? Is there a law to only catch adventurers?”
Alone with a body like that?
I can only draw pictures of people being caught by orcs and subjected to severe punishment.
“There is no such law. But adventurers take risks because there is a worthy reward, but why are you like that?”
“You have so many questions. Oppa, are you interested in me?”
There is. Many.
“I’m an aspiring hero. In this forest, besides adventurers, there are aspiring heroes preparing for emergency missions.
I am one of them!”
From the woman’s mouth, a hwadu that I had put aside in my head and hadn’t even thought about came out.
Now I get it If you look at her as an adventurer, she’s awkward, but as a hero candidate, this woman fits very well.
Young but full of confidence, recklessness to come face to face with monsters alone.
If you’re going to be a candidate for the hero, you must have this kind of wit.
I liked it even more.
“If it’s an emergency mission, is that it?”
She was worried and looked at Isti, who nodded her head without saying a word.
The red-haired female prosecutor looked at our reactions and said.
“It seems that rumors have spread even among adventurers.”
“Leaving aside the rumors, the one who brought the urgent mission instructions to Marne is Ys… Hunter here?”
“…”
The woman just froze.
“Are you the judge?”
“The examiner?”
Does ISTI judge?
“I’m not an examiner, but I do speak up about mission evaluation when I’m judging.”
…In a sense, you can see it as an examiner.
“So you’re saying that the final decision of all Hero candidates is up to you?”
“Emergency missions in dry areas only. There are also emergency missions from other diamond-class adventurers.”
“…”
The woman stood in front of me with a puzzled expression.
“It’s not like they’re deducting points for talking inappropriately, right?”
Suddenly became polite
“…”
Isti watched the red-haired swordsman quietly, then shook her head.
“Don’t do that.”
“Phew. Life was almost ruined.”
ISTY’s external standing seems to be much higher than I thought.
You can also put your breath into the selection of warrior candidates.
If ISTY selected the urgent mission task, it is understandable that the difficulty of the mission goes beyond the B rank.
ISTY’s assignment…
Would your life be in danger?
“Any questions? I’m coming! Bye!”
The woman waving her hand cheerfully and leaves.
Previously.
“Look this way.”
Right.
I snapped my fingers.
