Chapter 13: "Demons" and "Goblins"

"It's finally here! Volod! Precht! What are you guys still grinding about! Hurry up! ”

The blond-haired young man, who jumped off the sailboat and put his feet on the ground again, clenched his fists excitedly, and then shouted loudly to his companions who had just disembarked behind him.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Really, I don't know what that guy is excited about, it's not a good place......"

With a low snort, a young man with a serious face in a cloak stepped on the waves and walked over slowly.

"Don't say that, Precht, that's Yuri, isn't it?"

Beside him, a long-faced man with a straw shed hairstyle smiled innocently, obviously knowing the personalities of the two very well.

"That's not what I meant, Volod."

Ignoring the blonde youth who had been noisy in front of him, the man named Precht sighed.

"I deliberately wasted an A-grade secret treasure to find out the movement of the ocean currents and ran to this kind of place, just to make a boring bet with those guys in the guild."

Remembering the way someone in the Treasure Hunters Guild had been provoked to put down his arrogance, Precht's brows were squeezed together.

"'Demons? I don't care about that kind of thing! It's a shame that guy dared to say that. ”

Depressed, half of his face buried under his clothes, Precht looked at the mysterious island where the giant tree was rooted.

"Sirius Island", this place is listed as a dangerous forbidden place in their guild, and it is rumored that there are great demons who can manipulate flames inhabited here, and with just one blow, the two powerful magician guilds that were at the height of their time were wiped out.

According to the survivors' descriptions and the information that has been handed down to this day, if it is all true, it is obviously not a level that the three of them can deal with.

"Haha, that's the way it is, Precht, don't you still rest assured that Yuri will come along."

Touching his head, Volod, a long-faced man, understood Precht's mood very well.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ No way, who let that guy be part of our team too. ”

Volod's words made Precht turn his head, and it turned out that he was also a guy who was not very good at showing his emotions.

Although he has a look of 'that guy can't do without us', you can still feel the care for your friends from his words.

Maybe this is the textbook 'male tsundere'......

"Heyβ€”what are you doing there! Leave you behind! ”

"Got it! Go now! ”

Yuri replied, checked again that the boat was parked, and Volod, with his gear on his back, ran towards the blonde youth waving his hand.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

And Precht, although he didn't say a word, also quickened his pace.

It's just that he kept looking at the lush forest in front of him, and he kept weighing something in his mind.

οΌˆβ€¦β€¦ We're not demon hunters, we're treasure hunters. οΌ‰

(Rumor has it that there is a big demon here, but I found an interesting piece of information.) οΌ‰

Recalling the information he had found, Precht's eyes flashed.

(I don't know if the idiot listened.) οΌ‰

(Ultra-Ancient Magic Weapon...... Is it ...... οΌ‰

……

******************************************************************************************************************

"Mebis! Are you here? Mebis !! ”

In front of the dilapidated building carved with red lizards, a melodious girl's voice echoed in the clearing.

It's just that from her gradual intonation, you can hear that the girl's mood is gradually getting worse.

"Ahh......h

The girl covering her forehead was full of helplessness, since she was not here, she could probably guess where the other party had gone.

"I told her that I was going to move today......

Irritably, she grabbed her hair, if Mebis was in the library, it would be dark when she came back from reading the book.

It was because of her bad habits that the brown-haired and ponytailed girl wanted to move her home to the library.

(I really can't help her.) οΌ‰

Giving up the original idea and using magic to urge his 'car', someone had to reconsider a new plan for moving.

......

This brown-haired girl is naturally Zela.

Seven years passed in a flash, and she finally got rid of that weak little child's body.

Although everything else is improving, the only regret is that her feet have not recovered.

Sure enough, the wounds on the soul are not so easy to resolve.

So when she usually wants to move, she basically sits in this simple magic wheelchair.

But recently, she has made a new breakthrough in magic, and she can almost change her 'car'.

Leaning back in her wheelchair, Zela decided to go back to their 'old' house to see if there was anything they could bring with them, and then go and get the idiot back to work.

With the intention in mind, the sound of the gears moving began to rattle slightly on the potholed ground.

But what is surprising is that there seems to be other dissonances mixed in.

That's impossible, with vocals other than her and Mebis.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Yuri's stupid idiot doesn't know where we are now! ”

The whining voice slowly became clear, and the rustle of the trees appeared on Zela's right hand.

οΌˆβ€¦β€¦ A man's voice? οΌ‰

The look in his eyes became strange, would anyone still come to this dilapidated island?

"It's gone in the blink of an eye, and I won't collect his body if he's dead."

"Calm down, Precht! Now I have to ......?! ”

The sound of conversation stopped abruptly at this moment, not because they had found their companion, but because they saw a figure that should not be there for them.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Girl? ”

"Is there still a human presence here?!"

Looking at the girl in front of them, Volod and Precht were full of surprise.

And the other party still seems to be sick?

But soon, they were in no mood to care.

"Hmm...... This is really a rare guest. ”

Supporting her head on her left hand side, Zela looked at the two fellows with interest.

"Hey, can you tell me what you're here for?"

The calm smile made Precht and Volod break out in a cold sweat.

It was a feeling they had experienced many times in their careers as treasure hunters.

The feeling of oppression caused by being targeted by an existence that cannot be resisted.

(Isn't it ......?!) οΌ‰

……

************************************************************************************************************************

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Uh, what kind of place is this?! Feed! Volod! Precht! ”

A moment of excitement rushed over his head, and by the time Yuri came to his senses, his companion was already lost in the forest.

"Tsk, where the hell did those two guys go?"

Looking around unhappily, there is no consciousness that he is lost.

"Obviously, that guy from Precht said with a serious face that you should be careful, this is not good."

With a wave of his hands on his hips, Yuri said he couldn't stand them.

It's just that the expression on his face at this time is telling others that it is just to hide his embarrassment.

"Aha...... Aha......"

Stiff smirk, it seems that this off-line guy finally understands his situation.

Just as he was wondering whether to fire a signal bullet, a mysterious chuckle suddenly sounded in the forest.

Apparently having witnessed what had just happened.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Hee-hee. ”

β€œβ€”β€”οΌβ€

"This is Sirius Island, hello, unknown sir."

The girl with feathered ears was surrounded by a snow-white giant wolf, and her long golden hair danced in the wind, like a picture scroll.

Swallowing his saliva, the staring young man asked in disbelief.

"The Wolf and the ...... Goblin? ”
