Chapter 311
Legend Chapter 311
「The weather is great . 」
「Guru~」
At Rei’s words, Set gave a cry .
Set was currently fly through the sky, about 30 minutes away from Gilm, as the spring sun gently shined down .
There was probably a warm breeze blowing along the ground . Unfortunately, Rei and Set were flying through the sky, so there was a strong wind blowing against them
As for where they were heading, Rei and Set were currently on their way towards the port city of Emoshion to defeat a sea monster that the guild master, Marina, had told them about the day before and claim it’s magic stone and bounty .
Because it was still early in the morning, only ordinary animals like birds could be seen around them and there were no monsters . Rei had seen adventurers leaving Gilm in the morning moving along the ground . But with Set’s speed, after flying for 30 minutes, they had long left them behind .
「Here, Set . It’s going to take us a few days to get to Emoshion, so let’s take it slow . This is also a good time to take a break, so I feel like doing some sightseeing . 」
Saying that, Rei took out a sandwich from the Misty Ring and gave to Set, who turned his head around .
「Gurururu~?」
Set gave a cry as he ate the sandwich, as if asking, ‘Can we really take our time?’, as he looked at Rei with round eyes .
Guessing Set’s question, Rei spoke as he gently stroked Set’s neck .
「Of course, it might be a problem if we’re too slow, but in any case, the monster always stays in the open sea and doesn’t come over to the shore . I don’t think there would be anyone other than us who could kill it . Of course, there’s always the possibility of adventurers going out to sea on a boat, or directly firing a high power magic attack at it from the port……」
Although he said that, Rei still felt it was a difficult task .
(Large boats can’t make tight turns, and if it is targeted from below, it can’t do anything about it either . On the other hand, if used a small boat that could make tight turns, it would capsize as soon as are any big waves . In that case, the mostly likely thing to happen would be to try and shoot a high power magic attack at it from the port into the sea . But in that case, most of the power from the attack will be blocked by the sea . What’s left is water magic……but that will probably end up the same . )
Thinking that far, he realised that his thoughts also applied to him and Set and couldn’t help but sigh .
Rei was only good at fire magic, so he was at a great disadvantage attacking monsters in the sea as his methods of attack were quite limited .
「Maybe Set’s Wind Arrow and Tornado would be effective? Since King’s Awe is still at a low level, it probably won’t have much effect on higher ranked monsters, like what this one seems to be . Water Ball is out of the question . ……Ah, thinking about it, maybe Poison Claws would be the most effective?」
「Gurururu~」
After eating the sandwich, Set gave a cry, as if saying ‘Leave it to me’ .
「In my case, Corrosion……can’t be used since monsters don’t have metal equipment . Terrain Manipulation is not useful in this case either . As for Wind Hand, can I combine it with Set’s Wind Arrows or Tornado? The only remaining options are Flying Slash and Power Slash which deal direct damage……direct damage? Direct damage . That might be the best way . 」
「Guru~?」
What’s wrong? Set seemed to ask as he gave a cry . Rei stroked Set’s back as he spoke .
「Certainly, the effect of fire magic would be far weaker in the sea, but fire magic doesn’t work from the outside, I can just burn it from the inside with something like 『Dancing Fire Snakes』」
Rei guessed that stabbing an enemy and then casting 『Dancing Fire Snakes』 inside their body to burn them up from the inside should also work against an enemy in the sea like that monster .
「Guru~……Guru~?」
Set nodded at Rei’s words before suddenly turning a sharp eye towards the ground .
Down there, although it was a bit off the road……or rather because they were off the road, a group of 30 people had surrounded and were about to fight two travellers or adventurers .
「Gururu~?」
What are we going to do? Rei thought for a few seconds before replying to Set .
Originally, he wouldn’t care too much about others being attacked by bandits . No, rather, since they had travelled so far from the road like this, you could say that they only had themselves to blame . And even if they were attacked by bandits, the only reason why they would be that far off the road would be because they were confident in their own strength .
However……
「Hunting bandits sounds quite nice . 」
The bandits he had killed during his rank up test had a large amount of weapons and armour . They didn’t have any magic items for Rei to collect, but weapons were weapons……in particular, Rei could store the spears into the Misty Ring and take them out to throw, so that wasn’t an issue . Best of all, it was cheaper to get weapons by killing bandits and no one was going to complain if he killed them .
「It’s not a bad thing to have more money . 」
Emoshion was the largest trading port in the Mireana Kingdom . It was true that it would be better to have more money if he came across a magic item he wanted to buy there .
「In that case, let’s help out those people attacked by bandits . 」
「Guru~」
Nodding at Rei’s words, Set flapped his wings as he started to descend to the ground . But the next moment, Rei’s eyes went wide in surprise .
「Uoooooh-! Go and die-!」
Out of the two people that Rei thought were being attacked started attacking the surrounding bandits as he swung a massive weapon .
Looking for both mobility and defence, he wore a set of armour made from both leather and metal . In his hands, he held an axe with a long shaft . It was a weapon better known as a poleaxe .
「Hey, don’t poke that thing at me!」
The woman behind the man who was brandishing his weapon blocked a bandit who had tried to circle around the man .
There was a sound of something cutting through the air followed by a crack .
「Gyaaaaaah-!」
At the same time, the bandit that had been trying to attack the man with the poleaxe started screaming as he rolled on the ground .
