A VR Travel Story That Makes You Want to Be Humiliated

Chapter 265: Rearguards of the Hero’s Party

When it comes to bows, people think they are elves, and they are good at shooting arrows.

He doesn\'t just shoot well, he shoots extremely well.

Not only does it persistently target the enemy\'s weak points, but it is also capable of accurately hitting the enemy even in a melee where allies and enemies are mixed.

An arrow may be blocked, but it never misses. ... We are working hard to reach the level of.

When the time comes, he can swing a bow and engage in close combat, and he has also learned the art of boxing.

For your information, no one knows your age.

Strong.

The priest of the hero party, Berti.

A girl with short black hair who still looks young. Of course, she is an adult. This is very important.

She is a saint.

He is a party member who has been with the warrior since before he was a warrior, and honestly, his proficiency in sacred arts is still immature.

However, she is working hard to achieve such great potential that even her saint recognizes her.

Her own fighting power is at an unprecedented level, but she has recently been training it little by little with the help of Silpierre.

Weak. Still, as a priest, he is strong in his own way. As it is a hero party.

So, why are we introducing these two again?

"No matter what, isn\'t it too much?"

Silphiere walked through the forest and expressed her dissatisfaction.

Beside her, Berti was smiling awkwardly and listening to Sil Pierre\'s story.

"That\'s right... There was nothing I could do about it."

"Okay! That\'s what I said!"

Berti nodded her head at Silpierre\'s words.

She didn\'t completely agree, but she knew that Pierre, who was so angry, wouldn\'t listen to her if she tried to refute it.

There was no sign of anyone else being around the two people.

Normally, there was no Lev who would change the topic by teasing Silphiere, no Gaidon who would laugh and listen to her complaints, and no Serena who would stop her appropriately.

The two were acting separately, away from other party members.

"Even if only the front line can enter the dungeon, is there a way to leave only the back line like this?"

This was because the dungeon that the hero party headed to this time had a condition that only vanguards could enter.

Not only the holy sword-wielding hero and tanker Gaidon, but also the thief Lev could use a dagger to play an active role in the vanguard, so only the archer Silpierre and the priest Berti were left behind, unable to enter the dungeon.

It\'s something that can\'t be helped.

Yes, it was inevitable.

Even though Silpierre can use a bit of boxing, it is not her main strength and the dungeon is not easy enough to challenge her with a technique she only uses occasionally in times of emergency.

Besides, even if he had forced his way in, he must have been worried about Bertie who would be left alone this time.

So, when Serena, the leader and warrior, said that she would leave the two in the village and go to the dungeon alone, Silpierre did not particularly object and agreed.

But that and being disappointed are different.

As a result, there was never a day when Sil-Pierre grumbled out of his mouth.

"Really. "What would I have done if we weren\'t there?"

"Uh? Uh, uh, sister. A little too close... "Bub bung."

And the grumbling always ended with a tight hug to Berti.

Hug it tightly to your chest and cuddle with it.

Berti always tried to run away because it was too much of a burden to be rubbed to the point where it was tight, even if it was just a simple hug, but in the end, he was caught and cried out.

– Crispy...

"... !"

I heard a small sound.

A sound so small that only she, an elf, could not have heard it.

However, Silphiere was an elf, and even while playing around, she was meticulous enough to pay attention to her surroundings, and was skilled enough to immediately discern what the sound she heard was.

"..."

Berti, who noticed Silpierre\'s reaction, also held his breath. It was so as not to disturb Silpierre\'s hearing.

– Sasak...

Berti still couldn\'t hear anything, but there was another sound.

This time, Silpier heard correctly and was confident.

"Are you okay. "It\'s a goal."

"Phew... "

Only after hearing about the goal did Berti relax.

There was a reason why the two people were in the forest.

I didn\'t go for a walk in the forest simply because I was bored. Actually, it was like that at first, but not now.

Since we couldn\'t leave the village until the party members heading for the dungeon returned anyway, we wanted to kill boredom by doing at least a small request near the village.

Because it wasn\'t a very big village, there weren\'t any fun or interesting quests, but they were not bad quests to complete while simply walking around the village.

And this time, the request the two took on was to subdue goblins.

Goblins are something that springs up everywhere, so it is impossible to completely subdue them, but it was necessary to keep reducing their numbers so that they do not accumulate too much.

No matter how weak the goblins were, if there were just two or three of them, she could kidnap at least one village girl who came into the forest without fear.

When Silpierre said the target was a goblin.

When two or three of them gather together, she can kidnap a village girl. In other words, even if she is a woman with no combat skills, she can take on one to two goblins.

Moreover, the ones here were two members of the hero party.

Not to mention Silpierre, even Bertie, the weakest member of the party, was able to knock down a flirtatious man in a bar with his bare hands without any sacred arts.

It was worth relaxing against the goblins.

"There are 7 in number, their armament is nothing special, and there is nothing to be particularly careful about."

Still, as was her custom, Silpierre briefly briefed and took out the bow she was carrying on her back.

She didn\'t even need to protest. In fact, she didn\'t need to use weapons against goblins, but it was a precautionary measure.

Berti also held in her hand the scripture she was wearing on her belt.

Although it looked like an ordinary book, it was actually a weapon as ferocious as any blunt weapon, as its exterior was reinforced with metal and sacred arts of protection and strengthening were applied.

It wasn\'t appropriate to use as a main weapon due to the lack of a good handle, but since Berti\'s main skill was sacred art in the first place, it wasn\'t a big problem.

The two killed the sight and turned slightly to catch the back of the goblin group.

And then quietly rush in and make a surprise attack.

When the goblin group noticed the two, their heads had already exploded.

It was a fight that he would have been no match for even if he fought from the front, but with a surprise attack, the fight was over in an instant.

Six animals died on the spot and only one managed to escape.

"Ah. "I missed it."

"Shall we chase after you?"

"It\'s okay. I\'m going to be wandering around the forest for a few more days anyway. We will meet someday."

If I had done it seriously, I wouldn\'t have missed a single one.

Just picking up a pebble and throwing it on the spot would have been enough.

The reason I didn\'t do that was because the reason I received this request from the beginning was to kill time.

It will be less tedious to kill them multiple times rather than killing them all at once.

"Ah~ But I felt better after moving my body a bit."

"Shall we leave today?"

"Huh? Umm... Is that so? I\'m starting to feel hungry."

Subjugating goblins was a regular request with no specific number of subjugations and no deadline.

Just kill the goblin whenever you want and that\'s it.

So, the two people, who thought they were just taking a walk and killing time, returned to the village without any hesitation.

◆

"Ah! Adventurer!"

"Good work."

"Good luck."

The two people who stopped by the Adventurer\'s Guild to report on today\'s subjugation turned their backs as soon as they saw the receptionist greeting them warmly.

How could a receptionist welcome an adventurer so warmly? The smell of troublesome work was in the air.

"Oh. No, wait! Please listen carefully!"

However, the receptionist was holding on to her skirt, and it was sagging, so she had to sigh and sit down.

Anyway, these two are members of the hero party. I was full of my own sense of justice.

"So. What\'s going on?"

"It\'s an ogre, it\'s an ogre! An ogre has appeared!"

"Auger?"

"Yes. Traces of an ogre were found in a forest a little distance away... "

Silpierre tilted her head after hearing the story from the receptionist.

Ogre. It is a monster that frequently appears in fantasy, and is strong anyway.

They can usually only be found in very deep forests, but it is also often said that they left their territory without knowing why and destroyed several unfortunate slash-and-burn villages.

It seems that this village has become one of those unlucky villages.

No, I guess I should say I was lucky because I noticed that the ogre had appeared when Silpierre and Berti were there.

Ogre is strong. It is difficult to compare it to its exact extent, but it is strong enough to appear without fail when asked to rank among non-intelligent monsters.

Of course, it wasn\'t something that Silpierre and Berti couldn\'t defeat by working together.

This was the problem.

It\'s not that we can\'t win, but since we don\'t have a vanguard, it\'s obvious that we\'ll struggle quite a bit.

I was just going to kill time, but it turned out that I had to seriously give it my all.

"Ha... "

Silpierre ruffled his fair hair and scratched his head.

It\'s incredibly annoying, but you can\'t pretend to not notice that if you\'re not careful, a village will disappear.

"Okay, okay. We\'ll do our best. By the way, what is the gender of the ogre?"

Because ogres have a clear distinction between male and female, it was possible to tell the sex just by looking at the traces.

Although it may not seem like a big deal, what you need to prepare changes slightly depending on your gender, so it is good to know as much as possible.

"Based on the traces, it appears to be a female."

"Okay? Okay."

After confirming her gender, Silphiere left the adventurer\'s guild with Berti.

There was a lot to prepare.
