"Oy oy, dividing the forest like that, what the heck are they."
"Captain."
"I know. Oy, you guys, follow the ladies before the forest closes."
"""Understood."""
My subordinates answer with good spirit to my words.
I've heard rumor before that says elves are able to freely make paths on forests. I thought that it was just some stupid drunken talks, but looked like it was true. This is just right, I'll make use of it to slip through that crowd.
Still, what's happening to baron Muno's territory? Looking at the appearance of those crowds, there's no mistake that they're people from Muno city.
Do hordes of monsters attack from the forest?
If it's that then they should have barricaded themselves inside the city, what actually happen anyway.
By the order of the duke, I've thought that this would be an easy job of just meeting his nephew couple, but feels like this has become an unthinkable military outing.
◇Tama◇
Nyu!
Path springs out of the forest~?
It looks like secret art of fairy, I'll ask Mia to teach me next time.
I'll be taking lots of prey freely~♪
When I stand on the horse to dance, "It's dangerous, sit down.", I've got scolded by Liza.
Could Liza see from her back~?
Huh?
Ahead, at the opposite side of the forest, I could see dark people behind the people who are running away on the highway?
Ah, an old woman fell.
A dark monkey-like thing bares its fang, bullying the old woman.
Don't bully the old woman.
I throw a stone from atop the horse.
Aah, the dark person's head disappeared.
Will master scold me?
Green blood are coming out of the dark person, looks like it's a monster.
Safe.

"Mia, to the highway."
"I understand."
Mia connects the path to the highway.
I want to quickly go to master's place, but I wouldn't want to show my face in front of master after abandoning people of the same race as master.
Master even gave mercy to thieves. He probably would not abandon innocent people.
I put magic power into the magic spear. After master reforges it, it feels like an extension of my arm. It feels as if my nerve is connected until the tip, I could wield it freely.
"With me holding this spear, I won't let you through."
A small fry which has passed through with its fast leg is already being dealt with by Tama. I'll leave that side to her.
The enemies are swarm of zombies.
"Mia, bow and arrow don't work on these things. Please support me with magic."
"Nn."
The magic spear slays the zombie which are swarming in group like it's mowing them. Normally, this is not how you should use spear, but thanks to the effect of magic blade that manifests when the magic spear is put with magic power as in accordance to what master has taught me, I could cut them as if they're dead trees.
If it was a normal spear, this careless handling would had broken it a long time ago.
"We're helping ya, scalekin nee-san."
Looks like the cavalries who have been following us from behind are going to participate in the battle.
It's fine as long as they don't get in the way....
