Ainz slashed with two greatswords, staggered blades reflecting flickering fire.

The rock, which had been split in two by Hiiragi, was once again subjected to an attack from Ainz.

It's not just a slash, it's a slash with impact and destructive power.

Bang!

The massive rock had been chopped to pieces by two men and scattered on either side, leaving enough passage for carriages to pass.

"Whew~~~"

Falling to the ground, Hiiragi also looked behind him, and the result was still good.

"What a neat slash, Nangong."

"Each other."

"But you have specially hidden some of your power, otherwise this canyon will be destroyed by you."

Even if he could destroy the canyon, Hiiragi didn't plan to do that, because it would be too wasteful of energy.

Putting away his two giant swords, Ainz turned around and reminded the stunned Charles.

"It's okay, Charles, and everybody."

Those [blade wolves] were also scared away by Hiiragi and Ainz, and this small accident ended because of the appearance of two people.

"Is this the strength of [Steel]? Everybody, keep moving! Aim to reach the Dortlier volcano before dawn, then rest at the bottom of the mountain, and when you've rested enough, start the crusade against the Divine Flame Dragon! ”

The team began to move forward again.

As several carriages were destroyed during the battle, the extra adventurers were assigned to other carriages.

As before, the adventurers still formed a team centered on the carriage driven by Nabe.

After the recent episode, the adventurers who knew the strength of the two did not discuss it in a whisper. Instead, he stared at the two men with adoring eyes.

Of course. I don't rule out some guys who still don't buy it. Hiiragi doesn't need them all to trust themselves.

"You're really good! The cooperation between the two people is also very tacit, you were originally a team? ”

The man who came to the rear on a horse and chatted was a man.

He was followed by a carriage, all the members of which were dressed in red coats, and it was clear that it was a team.

The man had a gray hedgehog head, was not tall, and had a bow and arrows hanging from the side of his horse, presumably by profession as an archer.

"I forgot to introduce myself, I'm Hudson. Leonard (Hudson. leonard). It's from the royal capital. The adventurers of Yestijah are all my companions behind me, and I hope you can take care of them in the future. ”

"Ah, you are adventurers from the royal capital?"

Inz suddenly became interested, and he chatted with Hudson.

The reason is very simple, Anz himself is very interested in the royal capital, and there will be quite important plots in the royal capital in the future.

"Yes, it took a few days to get here from there, but I think it's acceptable, after all, the bounty is very rich."

"That's right. There are also many adventurers in your royal capital? There is a large number of troops stationed there? Is there such a facility as a magician's guild? ”

"I don't know much about that, after all, it's enough to get the job done. But Mr. Momo's mouth has everything. There are many adventurers, guards and outstanding magicians stationed there, and ......"

Hiiragi also listened to the conversation between the two men and focused on the carriage behind him.

There were three people inside, a strong man in armor, a young girl with a turban showing part of her blond hair, and a guerrilla wiping a dagger.

Are these people all for the bounty? Or is there some other purpose.

Hiiragi has not forgotten what Ainz said, which is that these adventurers are not companions, but just strangers with the same purpose.

To put it bluntly, these guys are hard to trust, and Hiiragi understands what Anz is trying to say.

Compared to these people, Hiiragi still thinks Ainz is more reliable.

The conversation between the two continued, and Ainz continued to gather information about the royal capital, and Hudson did not refuse, telling everything he knew.

"Hudson, stop chatting there, come over for a drink!"

His team told him to go back and drink, and the atmosphere was not bad.

Hudson invited Hiiragi and Ainz to have a drink, but neither of them had the idea of having a drink, so they chose to refuse.

And just like that, the procession of adventurers began to move forward in the darkness.

Due to the limited range illuminated by the torches, you can see the orbs of light launched into the air by the mage from time to time to prevent them from being attacked by monsters from afar, falling into dug traps, and the like.

After a smooth night's sleep, we arrived at our destination, at the foot of the Dotlier volcano.

"Here we are! If you feel tired, you can take a break, and the food will be in the last carriage, where you can sign and pick it up. ”

"Charles, get some more wine!"

"Don't drink any more, the Divine Flame Dragon is not a monster that can be easily defeated, you need to keep it in the best condition."

The meticulous Charles said this, rejecting some of the adventurers' requests to 'have a drink'.

Although Charles has strength, his rank is not very high, but as the person in charge named by the king himself, the adventurer will still obey his arrangement.

Standing in the clearing, Hiiragi also raised his head and looked at the top of the Dotlier volcano, which was not very far away.

It is an active volcano and you can see white smoke coming out of the crater.

Since it is not known how long it has erupted, Hiiragi also hopes that it will not erupt at this time......

"Xiaoya, let's start right away."

"Ahh

No matter what, Hiiragi will also complete this task, because there is no harm in it.

"It's a bed bug like you anyway, one hand is enough."

"Nabe-chan, it's still so cute."

"Don't lean over and kill you......"

Ignoring Nabei's warning, Xiao Na leaned over anyway......

Nabe didn't take extreme action because of Ainz's orders, and would have drawn her sword if she had done so.

In addition, due to accidents such as [Blade Wolf] and rock slipping on the road, Nabe did not have the opportunity to be alone with Hiiragi at all, and she was annoyed that she had not learned a new skill to "please Ainze".

"The monsters of the dragon system all have high magic defense and high physical defense, and in any game, they are all high-level races and monsters."

"But Mr. Ainz alone will be enough."

"Who knows, at least I won't let it do whatever it wants, this region is a resource-rich region."

"How do you know?"

"Exploring magic, there are mineral resources and precious metals underground, and gold and diamonds are indispensable things for the royal family."

That's right, most of the nobles in such a world are graceful and luxurious, extravagant and erosive guys.

"Let's cooperate this time, Nangong."

"I don't have an opinion."

Above, the white smoke of the crater drifted away in the wind, and the Divine Flame Dragon was waiting there...... (To be continued.) )
