Chapter 50: (1)
Chapter 50: (1)
The reason for choosing a slightly detouring path instead of the closest route to the forest was precisely this.
Just like when the bead flew into the sky and found the Orc Lord, it started moving.
Kaiyan, this is
Theres no time to explain! Lets hurry!
Ugh Do we have to smell that awful scent again?
The uncles expressions twisted. Well, they would think that they had to smell that terrible scent again.
Dont worry.
You say dont worry Youre young, so you wouldnt understand.
Ive taken care of everything, so just trust me and follow.
Ugh
He pulled Uncle Max, whose mouth dropped open and ran towards the forest with Uncle Jeff.
While They were spending time like this, the harpies were relentlessly chasing us, and they were closing in from behind.
Kiaaak-
Its so noisy, its killing me!
The sharp screeching pierced through their heads. It was an unpleasant sound that never got any easier to tolerate.
Moreover, there were tens of thousands of them. Even if they screeched once each, the entire canyon would resonate.
At this speed, three minutes is enough to reach the forest!
Thanks to the preparations he had made in advance or maybe because the harpies were dumb, everything was going smoothly according to the plan.
If everything went well, they would successfully enter the forest without any problems, and once they shook off the harpies using the forest, they just needed to find Elorc and kidnap him.

The Elf-orcs shouldnt have gone too far since we separated just before sunset.
It was two hours before sunset when their paths diverged.
If the Elf-Orcs possessed even a bit of the characteristic of Orcs, they would be unlikely to move at night.
If that were the case, it would be an easy task for a toy with a range of 1km to find them, even if it couldnt find them at once.
Since he hadnt purchased a Concealment Cloak, there was still enough G left for now.
Krrr
Thanks to their vigorous running, when they were almost near the forest, several large shadows blocked their way.
Well, it seems too easy.
The identities of those creatures were
Why are trolls coming out here?
Well, theres no rule saying only aerial monsters should be here!
Thunk!
Lowering his body and pushing off the ground, Kaiyan swiftly launched himself into the air.
If it was a troll, it was a monster that wouldnt be a hassle unless he broke its heart or head with his sword.
Uncle Jeff, Ill take the left!
Alright, Ill handle the right!
Then, Ill keep running!
After quickly dividing their roles, he swung his sword toward the troll on the left.
Breath Control, Penetrating Stab!
Swoosh!
The sword, which had been flying rapidly, accelerated once more thanks to the power of the skill.
The speed was enough to be called a Knights Strike.
Phwoosh!
The feeling of flesh being split by the sword was vividly transmitted to his fingertips.
Kwaaak!
Harpies, its time for dinner!
Leaving the trembling troll that had fallen to the cold ground behind, Kaiyan continued running. Since they had exceptional regenerative abilities, even without a heart, they would last for a while, enough to divert the harpies attention.
Glancing back for a moment, he saw Uncle Jeff, who had dealt with the troll, running towards him. Uncle Max, on the other hand, kept running, just moments away from entering the forest.
Where is the toy?
Once they entered the forest, their visibility would be blocked. However, if they climbed up the trees, they would be exposed to the harpies.
I just need to know the direction!
Turning his gaze to the sky, he found the brightly shining toy against the dark night sky.
The discovered toy had moved a considerable distance away from them. Over 500m, roughly.
Considering the distance the toy had been thrown and the distance they had run, it was a situation where they could exceed the 1km limit.
Lets go this way!
Kaaaak-
Confirming the direction, they entered the forest. The harpies that had been relentlessly chasing us seemed quite surprised when we entered the forest, circling in the air and screeching.
My promise with the old knight ends here. As does my connection.
For an hour and thirty minutes, we engaged in a pursuit battle with the harpies.
It would take quite a while for the harpies to return to their nests.
If, even after all this, they couldnt rescue Tarien, then it couldnt be helped.
The uncles and Kaiyan had done more than enough to meet their demands. Now, their connection with the knights would come to an end.
Heeek! Wait, just a moment!
While dodging obstacles in the forest and running here and there, Kaiyan heard Maxs urgent voice.
Even though Kaiyans danger sense didnt ring, did they get attacked by monsters? Or was it the earwigs?
In a hurried state, he ran towards the back.
Uncle Max! Whats happening?
Ugh! Whats going on?
Uncle Jeff must have heard Uncle Maxs voice as well because he turned in that direction and quickly ran over.
What they saw upon arrival was
Well I cant run anymore even if I wanted to.
It was Uncle Max, lying on the ground, completely exhausted and taking a rest with an extremely tired expression.
Hes completely out of energy! He doesnt even have the strength to get up!
Well, Max is the only one among the three who cant use Aurora. Plus, hes the oldest.
Come to think of it, its almost like a miracle that Uncle Max ran all the way there without taking a break. Kaiyan was worried about him even before they set off, so he even thought about using the Concealment Cloak just in case.
Thanks to Uncle Maxs efforts in running over, they saved some G and everything went according to plan.
Kaiyan, now that the harpies cant catch up, how about taking a short rest? Max seems like he needs a break.
Yes, Uncle Jeff.
Before hitting the road again, its necessary for them to recover their tired stamina at least a little bit.
Even Kaiyan using Aura got tired.
The three of them leaned against a tree and comfortably took a seat.
Kaiyan, You told us not to ask, so I wont ask But arent you pushing yourself too hard because of us?
Not only Jeffs but also Maxs face was filled with curiosity.
From their perspective, things like the Haste Scroll and the toy would be fascinating.
