Nora knew that when she had to strike to save Scar and Blackie, she was on the hunt of the orc army, right from the moment she did.

The orc race, where it is complained about and belittled, may be intelligence or civilization, but it can never be force. Originally, Nora knew this, but when she actually faced the attack of the orc regular army, she realized that she still underestimated the strength of the other party.

thought that although the orc army was strong, it would probably only be scattered sand, but in fact, in the process of escaping, she found that the orc army was very neat even in the process of rushing and chasing and even scattering and searching. There will be no chance to show flaws and be killed out of the encirclement.

The opponent is not weak, which is a very troublesome thing in itself. However, if there is a lag on your side, it can only get worse.

"Nora-sanpai?!!How did you end up here?, or how did you find us so quickly?" After escaping from the siege, Scar was surprised and surprised to find him and save him so quickly.

“...... I know that it will not be easy for you kid to settle down, so when I returned to the orc-occupied area, I immediately began to pay attention to whether there have been any unexpected deaths of orcs in any place recently, as well as the movements of the orc army stationed there...... So I quickly learned what you were doing. Then I'll follow the orcs who are rounding you up in this direction. And then before the roundup was about to take shape, I got here before they were done, and I got you out. "Because both Blackie and Scar are in such bad shape. As a last resort, Nora had no choice but to take them to rest in a remote place.

And the conversation between the two was also completed at this time.

Because time is running out. Nora was very bad when she saw Blackie. When there is a situation where there is no place where it can heal peacefully. can only persuade Scar to give up Xiao Hei, so that they can still have a chance to escape.

Nora didn't have the elixir given by Eco, but no matter how good the elixir was, it couldn't be resurrected in a second-even when Eco himself treated a seriously injured patient, and it was impossible for him to restore the other person to a good state in a very short time.

As for the elixir or something, the effect of the treatment is even worse than Echo's own spell. At least in a situation like Xiao Hei, where there are only a few breaths left, even if you drink the elixir, you will have to sleep for at least a day - but where is the environment that can give you a day at this time?

That's why Nora convinces Scar to give up Blackie. However, Scar refused. With what he thought was righteous and determined, he rejected Nora's offer.

"Xiao Hei is my friend! I am also a comrade-in-arms who came back here with me! I will not give it up! Otherwise, my father, who is already resting at this time, will not forgive me. ”

So Nora can only persuade Scar not to be impulsive, but to think rationally and analyze the current situation. However......

Of course, there is no use in saying these things to a bear child.

So after a few minutes. In a hurry, Nora quickly knocked Scar unconscious, and then forcibly took him away, leaving a dying black beast to die in place - in fact, the beast was far more seriously injured than expected. Some time after the two left, when the orcs found the beast, all they saw was its corpse.

―――――――――――― dividing line

In general, a quick and decisive way like Nora took Scar away, leaving behind a certain amount of misleading information (Blackie's blood and traces of movement) that misled the other party's direction of action. At the same time, if you cover up your traces well, there is a good chance that you will be able to escape safely with Scar.

However, when Scar woke up and couldn't see Blackie, he began to yell angrily again, and even pulled hands with No-O - this is a big deal.

Even if Nora quickly subdued Scar again and took him away, it would have been to no avail.

Because they are in a state of wanted, of course, the two of them cannot swagger on the avenue and towards the city. So Nora chose the back of nowhere. And the route is moving in the direction of the territory of the Spring Territory - at this time, if you think about going south, you will be looking for death.

And in order to suppress the rioting Scar. Nora had to use some spells and time, but that would inevitably have an impact on her surroundings. And judging by the situation on the spot. is not easy to hide the impact.

Therefore, the orcs, who are not stupid, suddenly found a new clue to follow. Then they quickly caught up with Nora who was on the run with a troublesome "oil bottle".

It was only then that Scar finally calmed down and reflected on what he had done - but was it still useful?

Of course not.

So, with a long sigh, Nora untied the rope from Scar's body before the orcs besieged her, and then pulled Scar and began to fight and retreat.

(Eco...... If you don't come again, I'll be really finished...... Nora, who wanted to cry without tears, could only silently pray in her heart that Eco would come before her mana ran out.

"Burned this wood...... Probably be able to delay them for a while, right? Now let's run first, run as far as we can......

"Is this another place to set fire to a barricade...... Then keep running, Scar......"

"Sure enough, a mage and a small child's warrior can't outrun an orc warrior...... Then you can only fight. ”

"Intermediate Magic, Flame Serpent, Intermediate Magic, Whirlwind...... Don't stop, hurry up the mountain!"

"But how are we going to get down the hill?!" Scar said with some desperation as she ran.

"Then it depends on the will of God! Now I can only trust her to come before the end!" Nora said without looking back.

......

"Oops...... Sure enough, I was forced to the top of the mountain. Then, out of a prudent precaution, did you decide to rush up?......" Looking at the army of orcs surrounded in front of her, Nora glanced back at the cliff beneath her feet - well, very good, high enough. If you fall at such a height, you don't have to worry about how long it will be painful after you land, right?

So, turning back to face the orc army again, Nora took a deep breath, ready to condense one last move and make a last-ditch fight.

However, it was at this time that she heard a voice from afar.

"-Jump off! Nora!" (To be continued.) )
