Chapter 120.2. The March Is Going Smoothly
I take a deep breath. From Mii-chan mode to I get serious mode. In front of the dense vegetation, I let my magical power circulate throughout his body.
[Presence Detection]
A status board appears in mid-air, with a triangular cursor pointing to the surrounding enemies.
That’s a unique skill of the [Hunter], [Presence Detection]. In the game, the enemy’s surprise attack is disabled, and the players’ surprise attack is up.
I’ve always wondered how it works in real life. How do you prevent a surprise attack? I wondered.
The answer is this. Know your enemy’s location. Because this skill is passive, we unconsciously notice dangerous enemies, but if we use it consciously, you see.
You know where the enemy is. And once you know where they are, the rest is easy.
[Hugin. Find the core.]
I send a thought, Fugin, a crow I borrowed from Grandpa Odin who hides in between the trees, caws.
Then, a letter appeared in the triangular marker between the trees.
[The core of the Lost Forest: level 10]
“Found it.”
With eyes as fierce as those of a puppy that has found beef jerky, I ready my bow and launch my martial arts.
[Aerial Arrow]
A tornado of wind twirls against the magic arrow, making Mii-chan’s gray hair curl and the hem of her hunting robe flutter and flutter.
“Yah!”
She utters a cute call that freezes everyone around her, straightens her back, and with a dignified expression, she draws the strings and releases them with a pin, shooting the arrow.
I created a gust of wind, and the arrow flies away at the speed of a gale. As it flies through a slight gap in the ivy that blocks the passage and twines around it countless times like a wall, it hits the tree used as the core with precision and pierces its trunk.
The magic arrow ran its shockwave into the tree’s interior, causing it to explode and shatter.
“Oh! You broke the core!”
“I can’t believe it.”
“No way, it’s supposed to be deep in the forest.”
The impact of my shattering the core was immediately understood by everyone. The ivy that had been a wall of ivy pulled back and disappeared.
“Next.”
I muttered and changed my aim to the next nucleus Hugin had analyzed for me.
The [Hunter] is a ranged attacker. How far can that distance be? Even in reality, even at a distance of several kilometers, a short-range attack can hit.
Then what is the range of a long-range attack?
[Aerial Arrow]
[Aerial Arrow]
[Aerial Arrow]
[Aerial Arrow]
[Aerial Arrow]
The arrow I shot flew through the ivy like a tangled spider’s web, a tiny path like through the needle’s hole.
My skill level has risen to [Hunter III] through battles with hordes of demons so far. I’m at the expert level.
It’s 5 kilometers right in front of me. The smallest gap is a big hole. Before a master archer, a motionless enemy is nothing more than a big scarecrow, too easy a target to hit.
With a speed that leaves after images, I fire my arrows rapidly, weaving my way through the labyrinth of ivy, arrow after arrow destroying the core.
In this way, I eventually obliterated all the Fossil Ivy in the [Lost Forest] that was blocking the way ahead.
“Phew.”
After confirming that I had canceled all the effects of the [Lost Forest], I exhaled and put down my bow. I wipe the sweat off my face and get tired. I wasn’t sweating, I guess. Well, it’s just a matter of mood.
Looking ahead, I saw that the Explosive Flowers, Fossil Ivy,” and various flowers they set up as a trap were still there, but the sturdy ivy that had blocked the path like a wall had disappeared cleanly.
“Let’s spur, everyone cut through the vegetation and move on!”
“……… Ha! I, I understand!”
The branch family members, who had been standing there stunned, used wind magic to cut the grass and trees. Thank goodness. With this, we can go rescue them right away.
“As expected of Mii-sama!”
“Oh, it’s whoosh whoosh, right? Em-chan, that’s great. Whoosh whoosh~”
“What’s going on? To be able to use magic like this. Uh, a genius? A genius other than me?”
Yamiyo clapped her hands and praised her. Tamamo’s tail wagged furiously, her cheeks red with excitement, and Ninny was staring at me.
I’m so embarrassed. Don’t praise me so much.
Embarrassed Mii-chan wiggles her petite body. Her cheeks are flushed red. I’m Takano Miu, a bowman who has just surpassed genius and become a master.
“Goodness, the Countess of the day is an extraordinary talent.”
“With this, we can deploy our troops. Countess Takano, thank you very much. Even without wind magic, we can already handle it on our own. Your mana will be depleted. Countess Takano, please stand by in the rear.”
“Huh?”
I’m fine, okay? I wanted to answer that I could recover this much right away, but I was carried to the rear again by Kongo-oneesan.
I couldn’t understand.
“Thank you for your hard work, Mii-chan. I had never seen such a good archer. Even though you were using wind magic, it was wonderful.”
A smiling Sena praises me. She’s a chattering saint who joins me when I move to the rear.
It doesn’t help that Enraku and Masatoshi saw it as an opportunity because it was easier to move back to the front. They probably thought they could counter the monsters by simply strengthening their bodies and having their weapons covered with mana since it was easier to move now that the obstructive ivy was gone.
In search of achievements, half of the Takano branch family is fighting on the front lines.
And so, after another two hours.
“We found Nagamasa-sama!”
When they finally arrived at [Life Detection], one of the soldiers let out a shout of joy.
