In the pouring rain, the legs of four figures moved quickly, galloping in the middle area between the forest and the town.
The muddy ground did not pose any obstacle to them. After a while, the four people stepped on the water and got into the dense and terrifying deep forest.
What awaits them will be a powerful enemy against the White Chimera.
...
"Well--"
Aga grasped the depression in the bark of the tree with one hand and swung it hard to avoid the thrust of Rashtanaha's roots.
Taking advantage of the situation, Aga grabbed hold and avoided a root system again, and Aga climbed up.
There was sweat on his face, and he was gnashing his teeth and squeezing the strength from his muscles and bones.
This kind of exercise is not as simple as it seems——
Strength, speed, reflexes, flexibility, even the speed of stress response and thinking——
All must be used to complete such an exercise!
The difficulty I am experiencing now is not even one-tenth of that of Luslan. It is already so difficult, so——
You have to make more progress—that’s it!
With bloodshot eyes, Aga was like a clumsy spider, moving around on Rashtanaha's torso.
At this time, Alma had just gotten up.
She cleaned the tavern, sat on a chair by the window, and looked at the rainy scene outside the window quietly.
Aga has been hanging out with those drunkards these days...
Although those few people hunted the white chimera and were called powerful hunters and heroes by the people in the town, only a few people knew what was underneath the outer shell of the hero.
That bold gesture of drinking directly from a bucket... No, that stupid gesture of drinking from a bucket...
The corners of Alma's mouth twitched.
Although it may be a little late to say this now, is it really okay to let Aga be with them?
It's not like drinking or anything...it's just those few people...
Well, forget it, if you care, just go and see it.
Locking the door, Alma walked towards the seaside.
She rarely goes to the beach, or in other words, everyone in this town rarely goes to the beach, with the exception of Aga.
Children are bound by the thoughts of adults, and they will not go where the adults don't go. Only Aga has a sister like Alma around him who will not restrain him, so Aga is more free.
"Today's rain is really heavy... Wow, is that tree so big now? You can notice it from so far away." Alma, who had not left the town for a long time, noticed it at the first sight.
The magic tree that stood by the sea and was brought up from the ground by his brother.
"As expected of being protected by Lady Hestia, the canopy of the tree is astonishingly large..."
The trunk of Rashtanaha is not high, but the leafy crown spreads over a very wide area. A large area with a radius of two kilometers is covered by Rashtanaha's crown, like a big green mushroom.
Same.
Walking a little further, Alma noticed a small square house at the foot of the Rashtanaha tree.
"That seems to be where Ocean and his friends live. It looks quite big."
"Long time no see, kid..." Rashtanahar's gentle voice reached Alma's ears.
"Ah, you, you are Dashu, long time no see..." Alma was a little uncomfortable talking to trees and seemed a little embarrassed, "Well, I came here to see my brother and...
....Oshen and the others."
"Oshen and the others went hunting. If you look for Aga, he will be on the back of the tree." Rashtanaha replied in a soft tone.
"Okay, thank you." Alma thanked her and walked around the extremely thick trunk.
"Huh? Where are the Aga people?"
She did not see the figure of her brother, only the ground where the damage was 100%, with tree roots exposed and soil flying.
"Child, look up." Rashtanaha reminded him warmly.
Alma raised her head.
"well?"
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaah?!!!"
His younger brother was scurrying up and down the uneven tree trunk like a monkey. Behind him were sharp tree roots and branches that seemed likely to pierce Aga at any time.
"This, this, this -" Alma looked at Aga, her whole body trembling.
"This is training, kid." Rashtanaha sighed.
"This, exercise, exercise?" Alma said, don't lie to me, is there such an exercise?
"Ah, it's almost time for Aga to come down." Rashtanaha shook the tree trunk gently.
Aga felt the vibration transmitted from his hand and pursed his lips.
Grasping the pit with one hand, stepping on the tree trunk with both feet, and exerting force, Aga's whole body fell to the ground like a cannonball.
Bang——
Aga stood up from the ground and then froze on the spot.
"......sister?"
...
"It's not easy to save traces on rainy days. We can only search by ourselves. Kimiya, please." Several people were in a serious state restricted to hunting.
"Leave it to me." Jimia's sense of smell is very sensitive. He shrugged his nose, capturing the scent of beasts mixed in the air and rain.
Ocean is feeling the magic in the air. Powerful monsters prefer areas rich in magic, and there are no exceptions for monsters.
but......
"The impact of rain on perception is indeed not small. The smell of wild beasts is extremely thin..." Jimia pinched her nose, with a look of distress on her face.
"The magic in the air was also squeezed by the rain, and the concentration became weird." Ocean frowned and picked up a handful of soil from the ground, "Even the magic on the surface was shattered into pieces...
..”
"This is the rainy season in Atlantis..." Lemoni put his golden spear aside and sighed, "Although the forest in the rain is a beautiful scenery, if you delay the business, it will feel...
All that was left was anxiety."
Lu Silan walked to a tree and noticed some... details.
This is......
"Oshen, come here." Lu Silan waved to Ocean.
"What's wrong?"
"Look here, on the bark of the tree."
Lu Silan pointed to the marks on the tree trunk.
"Is this..." Ocean gently stroked the damp tree trunk and looked at the dark bark, "Scorch marks?"
"Oh! It looks like we've already arrived at the place!" Jimia chuckled.
"These days, I asked Rashtanaha to make some wooden stakes that can be used for exercise using the ends of the limbs that are about to become necrotic. This kind of tree should be the same species as Rashtanaha, so... once
The traces of being burned by fire are almost identical."
He took off a small piece of bark and showed it to several people: "Although the color difference is not big, in fact-"
Click.
Lu Silan exerted a little force, and the bark of the tree broke into pieces.
"It's already completely dead."
"Is that so... It seems that at least we are heading in the right direction." Ocean looked at Lemony, "Lemoni, please."
