The next day, taking Gawain and Noelia with me, I rode with Dimol and the others to the vicinity of the Demon Forest to check the performance of the magic sword in a real battle.
[Master, it's finally a real battle: ...... I'm nervous.
It's okay. I'm sure you'll find it much easier to use than the sword I held yesterday. I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make it work. I'm sure you can do it.
The demon sword was flickering the demon stone pale and unsure.
After all, he seemed to be hurt by the words thrown at him by Gawain yesterday, 'If it goes out of control, just seal it up.
''That's right. I'm sure Flick-sama will put it to good use, so you can forget about Master Gawain's talk.''
Master, Master Noelia! Thank you. I'll do my best! That's helpful!]
Hey, I'm just saying, just in case, you know, I'm a total badass.
Gawain, who was riding a pterodactyl for his own use, was sulking when he heard us talking.
'Well, I, the bad guy, shall lure the enemy in for a flick - oh well!
The wings of the pterosaur that Gawain was riding on, which was about to descend to the ground, were engulfed in flames.
Gawain's pterosaur, whose wings had been burned by the flames, could be seen falling to the ground while cone-rubbing.
''Kueye!''
Dimol let out a cry of alarm as his companion crashed.
For a moment, he thought it was an attack from the Ground Fortress Turtle 《Grand Fortress Turtle》, but in terms of location, he hadn't entered the Demon Forest yet.
''What happened!''
Mr. Fricke, the thing!
Noelia, who was looking ahead as Gawain crashed down, pointed at the demon on the ground.
'It's that three dog-headed demon ...... demonic beast Cerberus, ...... so it's even in Yasbah's hunting grounds ...... usually hunts deep in the forest of the demon world. You're supposed to be here: ......
Although it's flying at a pretty high altitude, the Cerberus that Noelia was pointing at was clearly visible.
So it seems to be a fairly large monster.
It was an individual that had never been seen in the request for defeat received from the adventurer's guild in the royal capital.
''Could it be a strong demon?''
Strong? Yeah, I'm strong. It's not a good idea to fight it. That's a demonic beast that has destroyed several adventuring parties, including a platinum grade adventurer. It doesn't usually come out from further south of Abyss Falls, its own feeding ground, but ...... why ......?
Noelia was trembling when she saw the figure of Cerberus.
Apparently, the Yuguhanotes are very afraid of that Cerberus monster, calling it a demonic beast.
''Strong enough to defeat even a platinum grade adventurer? ......
Hearing about the strength of the demonic beasts from Noelia reminded me of the time when I defeated the demonic dragon that I defeated with Alfine and led to her gaining the name of the Sword Saint.
The demon dragon at that time was also very strong, .......
The other party was in a handcuffed state, but it would still have been dangerous if it wasn't for Alfine's arms.
The demon that seemed to be as strong as that time existed below us.
But even if we escape, we can't leave Gawain-sama behind ...... I saw him escape from the pterodactyl while he was crashing, so we have to help him.
''But ...... no matter how strong Master Flick is, it's too dangerous to expose yourself in front of the Demon Beast Cerberus. Since it's Master Gawain, I'm sure he'll be safe ......
Noelia grabbed me by the sleeve as I went to help Gawain and wouldn't let go, "I'm sure he'll be fine with that.
I'm sure he won't mind, but I'm worried about him. But I'm worried about him, so I'm going to take a look around. Dimol, you get Noelia to safety.
I let Dimol take care of Noelia, and after shaking off her restraint, I activated my body-enhancing magic and jumped down towards the ground.
I descended to the ground in one fell swoop in free fall.
Eventually, he grabbed onto the branch of an approaching tree and reduced the speed of his fall to land on the ground.
"Phew, a successful landing. Gawain-sama! Are you okay? Master Gawain!
I thought it fell in this neighborhood: .......
I guess I looked at it wrong.
There was no sign of Gawain around.
But I heard a voice coming from the grass a short distance away.
'Ahoy! Don't call my name so loudly! A hexenbiest--
Gawain's own voice was quite loud as he said that.
I ran over to the grass where I heard the voice and observed Gawain.
'He looks fine. He doesn't seem to be injured. That demonic beast Cerberus seems to be a pretty strong individual, so I'm going to run away.''
Run! Now!
Gawain had never seen him upset about anything, but now he was surprisingly upset.
'So, I'm running away,'
Stupid, stupidity! Back!
Gawain pointed, so I turned around and saw three huge creatures with three large dog necks rushing towards us at a tremendous pace.
''!
[Ma, Master! Do you want to fight? What do you want to do? Is it a real battle?]
Cerberus is moving fast .......
Even though I'm strengthening my body, I don't think I can escape from a leg like that.
I immediately drew my magic sword and held it ready.
Let the real battle begin. I'm not going to be the only one who can do that. The timing is up to you, and you can use as much magic as you like.
Yes, sir!
The demon sword flickered strongly at the demon stone and immediately shot out a fire arrow (Fire Arrow) of traction.
The fire arrows that were released pierced Cerberus' body and burned his fur.
The power is also only a check, but if it's this level of magic consumption, it will recover naturally on its own, so there's no problem.
''Gawoooooooooh!
The color of his eyes changed from black to bright red as the Demonic Beast Cerberus, who had been hit by the Fire Arrow, let out a roar that resounded in his stomach.
''Ah, I'm angry!''
You were angry.
[Waah, did I offend you?
He saw the demonic beast Cerberus roar in anger and looked at the two of them with a single swing.
