After the party with Mai Kuraki and the others, Ito's riko, who had no entertainment, regained his calm, and every day he either stayed at home to read a book, or went to the inner Meilin Library to secretly record the secretary, or in the dead of night, he realized the rules of revision, so that he could quickly enter the S-rank.

"Chen?" On this day, just as Ito Nari, who had finished rerecording the book, had just walked out of the Merlin Library, a familiar female greeting suddenly sounded in his ears.

Ito, who was slightly puzzled, immediately followed the voice and turned his head to look over. In an instant, a young woman with a height of one meter and seven meters, a slender figure, dressed in this very retro fashion, is considered a new chao avant-garde, and a young woman with a golden brown hair and a short hair came into his eyes.

"Betty?" Ito Nari, who saw the appearance of the person who came, greeted in a puzzled tone.

The person who came was none other than Maria from the Ito Naritsu Guò Magic Agency, one of the three mages hired in the name of a magic consultant, Betty Arnold, who was cheerful and outgoing, and had the strength of a one-star mage.

"I didn't expect it to be you, I thought I was wrong just now." Betty, who strode to Ito's side, smiled.

"...... are you?" Ito-Nari, who echoed and smiled, asked rhetorically.

"I've been interested in potions recently, so I've come here to buy some materials for cultivating potions." Betty explained. Then he looked at Ito Nari and smiled, "By the way, I forgot to congratulate you." ”

"What?" Ito Cheng, who didn't feel that he had anything to congratulate recently, heard the words and subconsciously asked.

"I've heard from Ingrid that you've been given the rank of official mage." Betty quickly explained.

"That's what happened. I am so sorry for your help, and without your and Ingrid's careful teaching, I would not have been able to pass the official mage's assessment so quickly. Ito Nari, who came suddenly, said modestly.

"That's also your own hard enough, I can't stand this kind of thing like running to the big library every day to read books." Turning his head to look at Betty, who was flickering with a faint magical glow behind Ito, he said.

"Oh, by the way, since I met you here, then I don't have to go to the guild to find someone to form a team. How about you, would you like to accompany me to the Tapei Forest to collect some potion materials? ”。 As if remembering something, Betty looked at Ito again and asked with a smile.

"That kind of place doesn't seem like it's supposed to be for us, is it?" Ito Nari said with some hesitation.

The name Tapei Forest is known to be a special forest located in the south. It was originally a hermitage for Tapei Krari, a master of alchemy and magic. However, in one of its special realities. Due to the accidental intrusion of the enemy, Shi yàn failed, and not only did Tapei Krali, who was the caster, suffer from the magic backlash and almost die, but even the attacker was seriously injured in the magic element chao tide generated by Shi yàn's defeat. But the most dangerous thing was the special summoning circle that Tapei Clari had laid in Shi Yàn at that time, which connected to an unknown dimensional plane under the loss of control of magic. While releasing a large amount of magical energy elements. It also attracted a group of powerful exotic monsters. It makes the entire Tapei Forest dangerous and abnormal, and people who don't have the strength of a two-star mage or above can't go deep at all.

Just one mistake is one gain, under the influence of the magic energy element released by the heterotopic plane. Most of the plants in the Tapei Forest have all undergone abnormal changes, from ordinary plants to anomalous plants with magic stars, and have become a paradise for some potion lovers.

As for the exotic portal in the forest, which was originally opened by the failure of Tapei-Krari's magic, it was sealed under the hands of the legendary mage who had been stationed and guarded it for a long time, but Tapei-Krali and his enemies, who were the parties to the incident, were gnawed and devoured by the demonic beasts that rushed out later, and they didn't know what they had become.

"Don't worry, we're only going around the periphery, not going deep." As if she had expected Ito to ask, Betty replied with a smile.

"Okay then." Ito nodded hesitantly in agreement.

Betty, who saw Ito's promise, laughed happily and beckoned Ito-nari to walk towards the shared teleportation magic array set up on Merlin Street. It's just that Betty, who was walking in front, didn't show up, and Ito Nari, who was following her, had a calm face, staring at her back with flickering eyes to observe something.

When Betty turned his head to talk to him, Ito's expression returned to his original appearance again, and he came to the public teleportation circle with Betty with a smile, and took the initiative to take out his bank card and pay the teleportation fee with the gentleman, and activated the circle to teleport them to a small circle located not far from the Tapei Forest.

"It's still some distance from the Tapei Forest, and we can rent two good horses over there to get around." Betty, who had stepped out of the teleportation array, pointed to a location not far away where a dozen or so horses of each kind were stored.

Ito, who was looking in the direction Betty was pointing, nodded, and went to the horse rental with Betty.

Renting a horse is as simple as paying a deposit and leaving a magic badge that represents your identity. And the money is naturally still paid by Ito Cheng, the financier.

"Drive!" Betty and Ito, who had each chosen a good horse among the horses, turned over and rode on, shaking the reins and shouting.

In the stinging of the reins, the two good horses neighed and ran forward.

……

......Just as Betty and Ito were halfway through, Ito suddenly tightened the reins and stopped the horse.

"Why did you stop?" After rushing some distance to stop the horse, Betty asked with a puzzled look as she turned the horse's head and slowly moved back.

"There is no village in front of here, there is no store in the back, the surrounding environment is empty, and there is no one in a radius of more than ten meters, which is a good place to solve problems." Ito, who didn't answer Betty's question, turned his head and looked around at the welcome and said.

Hearing Ito say this, Betty's eyes flickered almost imperceptibly.

"Let's be honest, who the hell are you?" Ito, who withdrew his gaze and fell on Betty, asked lightly.

"Chen? What are you talking about? Why can't I understand? Betty asked with a puzzled expression.

"Although your disguise is almost fake, and if you don't pay attention to it for a long time, or if you know some secret circumstances, you can hardly tell the difference between you and your real body, but it just so happens that I know some habitual xing movements that even Betty herself has not noticed. So you don't have to install it. Ito-Nari, who summoned more than a dozen transparent air bombs around his body in the form of a curseless spell, said lightly.

"Chen? You say I'm in disguise!? Are you crazy? ”。 Betty looked at Ito with a look of incredulity and a look like a madman.

"Tsk, you are worthy of being a professional, and your psychological element is strong!" Ito Cheng looked at Betty with disdain and said, "But it's a pity, I don't have time to talk nonsense with you, I don't want to wait to be entangled by your personnel who rushed over by accident." ”

As soon as the words fell, Ito ignored Betty in front of him, and ordered those air bombs to fly towards Betty.

"Bang bang ......" In an instant, a series of explosions sounded, and a large amount of smoke and blood and liquid splashed from Betty's location, spreading on the surrounding loess pavement.

Ito Nari didn't care whether it was human blood or horse blood on the ground, and immediately waved his right arm, and several narrow wind blades flipped into the white smoke and dust that exploded with flying air intake bombs.

However, the next moment when the wind blade flew into the smoke, a gray ribbon of qi flew out of the smoke like an arrow, and flew straight towards Ito's body.

Although it is not clear what kind of magic the air belt is, Ito Nari, who is by no means a good thing, flashes and appears directly behind the smoke, that is, behind Betty.

The next moment, the horse, which sensed the danger because of animal instinct, neighed and kicked forward, and was instantly hit by the gray ribbon. I saw that the muscles of the horse that had been attacked had dried up to a degree visible to the naked eye, and after a while, it turned into a horse corpse with only fur and bones, and fell to the ground with a "plop", stirring up a large cloud of dust.

"Necromancy?" Seeing this, Ito Nari said secretly in his heart, and at the same time, he was a little troubled and didn't understand whether the other party was a killer sent by the church.

It's just that although there is a difference in his heart, Ito's movements are still non-stop, first his hands are closed in front of him, and he quickly presses on the ground paved with loess. In an instant, a large amount of blue and white electric light rushed out from Ito's hands, almost instantly filling Betty's feet, transforming the terrain and causing huge rectangular stone pillars to rise rapidly from the ground, connecting the corners of each other, forming a rectangular pillar with only a roof opening, imprisoning Betty.

But before the square pillar could rise to a certain distance, a figure stepped on the top of the earth and stone pillar that rose from the center of the square pillar with a more rapid degree, and cast several strange arrows that were pitch black and exuded a cold breath in the mouth of the mantra, and flew down towards Ito Narifu.

Ito Nari immediately jumped away without thinking about it, and then after glancing at the hole in the ground that had been corroded by the pitch-black arrow, he rushed straight towards the woman who still maintained Betty's appearance, and at the same time grabbed the ten fingers of both hands into tiger claws, and fired a lightning spear at the woman.

Surprisingly, Betty actually floated and flew in the air with magic. It's just that her flight degree is not a little slower than Ito Nari, who flies with telekinetic power, but it is more than twice as fast as the average two-star mage who uses spells such as levitation and flying magic.

Seeing this, Ito sneered, once again offered his forward momentum, and instantly appeared in front of Betty's eyes, swinging his fist at her.

"Poof!" The next moment, with a slight popping sound, Betty, who was attacking in her body, suddenly turned into a cloud of smoke and dissipated from Ito's eyes...... (To be continued......)
