《True Assassin of Round Table》Investigation in Abellion Hills ( 3 )

"Are you okay?"
When he said that, Agravain felt discomfort left in his mouth, because saying such heroism was not his character at all.
'Damn, I think I regret taking this role. '
However, if later the plans made by Nash can run smoothly, then the Kingdom of Camelot will get its own territory in this world.
Agravain understood that, that they were currently being transferred to this world without knowing anything, from Yggdrasil to a completely new world. But he knows very well that acting as quickly as possible in this world and planting strong roots is very important.
And Agravain understands that Esmeralda will use 'friendly' methods and pass the peace route to do that. Don't get him wrong, it's actually not a bad thing at all, the path of peace is one option that Agravain might have taken if he were the ruler of Camelot.
And that's where Agravain once again realized how important Nash was in Camelot, about the problem of strength, Nash and all the creatures on the Dark Floor were Camelot's last line of defense.
He knew how scary the Dark Floor was, because he was the guardian of the floor. And how strong is someone named Nash George Faust.
Agravain realized that he was a calculative and perfectionist person, and perhaps one of the smartest at Camelot. But for the problem of strategy and scheme no one can defeat the shadow of Camelot itself.
The plan that Nash made was not a plan to seize or conquer a territory by force, instead it can actually be called a peaceful path, but in a different way.
For this reason, Agravain respects Nash deeply in his heart, even though Nash was not the one who created him.
Back in the real world, the Zoastians who saw Agravain's presence were still shocked and speechless, but they only nodded when answering Agravain's question.
"Then you follow me from behind, I will make a way out of this crowd."
The Zoastians merely nodded in obedience, and Agravain glanced back forward. Dozens of Spriggans roared and lunged at Agravain, because even though they had lost their senses, they were still aware of the enemy who had killed their Leader.
"ARGHHH !!!"
"KILL !!!"
However, facing the Spriggans, Agravain only needed his sword, he didn't need any spells or magic.
'Their movements are stiff and slow, maybe it's because their bodies are woody? But saving the tiger mans behind me is the most important thing. '
However, even if he said that, for the Zoastians, the forms of dozens of Spriggans were terrifying monsters.
Upon finding the right timing, Agravain then sent a slash after slash to Spriggans in front of him, advancing without obstacles and succeeding in paving the way for him and the Zoastians out of the siege.
* Crack *
* Crack *
" Let's go. "
Agravain then ran at a pretty fast speed towards the foot of the Hill where the Spriggan Cave was located.
Finally they all got out of the siege, and Agravain said while glancing at the Zoastians who were behind him.
Then he looked back to the front, when the moonlight made his black sword glow in a unique way. However, he did not plan to use his sword and instead sheathed it again.
'I did not want to use fire magic because it would have an impact on the forest at first, but because it was already burning, I would use the fastest way to solve all this. '
Agravain then slightly stretched his arms forward and chanted a kind of mantra.

"[Extra Minimize Extinction Fire]"
When Agravain said that, a magic circle appeared in the palm of his hand and then a small black flame was blazing, it was a fire that was very small even just as big as the flames normally used in candles.
However, if the Magic Casters in Yggdrasil saw that, they would recognize it as one of the most powerful fire magic available. An 8th Tier Magic that can burn everything so quickly that it turns to ashes in a vast area.
However, currently Agravain only uses a version that is several times smaller than the original version. That's because he would only use it to kill the Spriggans in front of him ashes.
If you are confused why Agravain can use magic, it is because Agravain is one of the few people who even though their basic Class job is a warrior, can use magic.
A concrete example besides Agravain is Esmeralda. However, if the Esmeralda Class job is a Magic Lancer, the Job Class that makes Agravain can use magic is called the Flame Swordsman.
The Spriggans without stopping lunging at Agravain, but he only casually said.
"Sorry but ... you all must die."
Agravain said so quietly that his words could not be heard by the Zoastians.
And after saying that, Agravain blew out the fire in his hand, but instead of being extinguished, the fire shot right at the Spriggans.
Initially nothing happened, but in an instant a large black flame appeared and immediately burned the entire Spriggan.
* Burn *
"ARGGGHHG !!!!"
"HOT !!!"
The scent of scorch spread through the air, screams of despair from the Spriggans could be heard. Even though they were cornered by the Spriggans, but for some reason when they saw the massacre carried out by the Black armored man, the Zoastians felt sympathy for them.
The massacre of a race took place completely in front of Narjun and the others, the fear and admiration of the man in front of him jumped sharply.
'I've never seen such awesome and terrifying magic, actually who is this human? '
The shock shown by Narjun was natural, especially since even someone who was said to be the greatest magician on this continent, Fluder Paradyn could only use 6th Tier Magic.
7th Tier Magic and above is only a legend among the Magic Caster.
After a while, the fire was completely extinguished, leaving only the black ashes of the Spriggans who were slowly blowing in the wind.
The atmosphere was quiet because both Agravin and the Zoastians did not start the conversation, before a voice from above caught everyone's attention.
"Thank God you're all right."
When Narjun and the others see that person, feelings of joy surround them, they then smile upward and say together.
"" Muar-sama !!! ""
That's right, the person who is on the hill is Muar, he then jumped and approached his men.
Meanwhile, Nash behind him only smiled at Agravain. And Agravain knows what the meaning behind that smile is.
***
Nash and Agravain were seen chatting with each other, Fire in the forest had been extinguished using a water magic scroll that Nash had taken from his Dimensional Inventory.
Nash employs about one hectare of forest in the area, it is scorched by fire, it is a large area and will greatly affect the balance of the ecosystem, but Nash is once again aware that this world is not the old world. A world full of trash and completely destroyed ecosystems. Seeing the forest like this firsthand really made Nash happy.
"It seems like besides we can understand their words, what we say can also be understood by them, I don't know if that is indeed the world having the same language as Yggdrasil, or the world itself automatically translates our speech when we speak, but it seems we don't have difficulty interacting with beings in this world. "

Agravain only nodded at Nash's words. When Nash saw Muar surrounded by his men, Agravain said doubtfully to Nash.
"Em, Sir Nash, I seem to regret accepting your offer, I knew I would not be suitable for this."
Hearing Agravain's words, Nash just laughed and didn't reply. And Agravain who saw Nash's response only sighed resignedly.
Meanwhile Muar and the other Zoastians glanced at Nash and Agravain who were chatting, Narjun who was curious about who had saved them, asked Muar.
"Muar-sama, do you know them both?"
"Hmmm ...? Ah, that can't be said to know him, but I've had a little chat with the hooded man before, if I'm not mistaken his name is Nash George Faust. Meanwhile, I think the man on the black pilgrimage is his friend he mentioned earlier. "
"Are they on our side?"
Hearing this question, Muar was a little hesitant about answering what he said, but he finally said.
"Yes, I suppose, for now."
Muar then looked around and felt guilty for damaging the forest ecosystem. The trees here were damaged because of their actions and Muar was aware of that, but because of the Spriggan territory they had conquered completely, then it fell into the hands of the Zoastia race instead.
And Muar himself plans to reforest trees that have been scorched and destroyed by fire, although it will take a long time before the forest can be as it was before.
Muar then turned and approached Nash and Agravain. Followed by Narjun and others, who seemed to want to thank Agravain for saving them.
The ten of them then simultaneously said to Agravain.
"" Thank you for saving us! ""
Hearing that, Agravain only replied with a deadpan look, he then opened his mouth.
"Well, after all I was-"
Before he could say anything, Nash nudged Agravain's arm using his elbow, so he stopped saying that and understood his mistake.
"Well, I can't just look at you eyes anyway."
'Tck, I want to throw up. '
The eyes of the Zoastians shone when they saw the answer from Agravain who was very heroic. Hearing that, Nash held back his laugh because he thought it was too funny to see Agravain say that directly.
'Pffft ...'
Muar then approached Nash, and said with a smile. He seemed to be more relaxed than before, when he was in the cave.
Maybe, it happened because of a feeling of guilt in his heart for his men.
"Nash-dono."
" Hmmm? "
"What if you and your friend stop by our village and stay for tonight? Because I think it's too late to come out of the forest, and there will be many other demi-human races that will target you later."
Nash who heard it thought that this was a good opportunity to bring the Zoastia race closer to Camelot.
Muar did not know that Nash and Agravain arrived at this place from the edge of the forest in just a few minutes. He therefore thought, that Nash and Agravain might have entered the forest since evening and this was a dangerous time because there were some very dangerous demi-human races in Abellion Hills, even though he was sure that people like Nash would kill them all easily.
Also, the man in black armor was the one who had destroyed dozens of Spriggans in their Berserk mode, so Muar believed that in this forest the people who could injure them could be counted on the fingers. Even though it's only an estimate.
"Well, I think I will gladly accept your offer."
"Then, we will leave now, because this Life Encore needs to be taken to the village as soon as possible."
Muar then said to the other Zoastians.
"All of you, let's return to the village right away, Vijar-sama has been waiting for our return, and we will bring him this Good news."
The other Zoastians smiled, fatigue radiating from their gazes, it was a gaze that wanted to go home immediately and rest.
"Then let's go."
Then, everyone followed Muar from behind, including Agravain and Nash. On the way, they all also chatted with each other, the Zoastians rescued by Agravain surrounded him and they looked very enthusiastic about chatting with the black Passionate Knight. Muar and Nash who were in front of them also chatted with each other.
What is surprising is, although the lighting in the forest is very dim, but it looks like Muar and the other Zoastians can see well.
"Ho ~, do you Zoastians have a special ability to see in the dark or something?"
Muar, who was beside Nash, touched his eyes.
"Well, it's not a special ability either because we can't really see in the dark, we only get the ability to see 6 times better than humans, that's all."
"Hmm ..."
'Is it possible because they belong to the catlike race? '
Muar who also saw that Nash didn't seem to get into trouble from seeing in the dark.
"You yourself, it seems like you also have no problem in seeing in the dark."
"Well, I told you I'm not human, right? That's what makes me see even in the dark."
"He ~, that's interesting."
After that, they continued on their way and after a few minutes on foot, they arrived at a place that seemed to be some kind of settlement.
Muar then opened his mouth.
"Well, we've arrived."
Nash looked at the conditions of the area there, and concluded that it seemed that life for the Zoastia race was very simple, judging from their dwelling which was only made of trunk and dried leaves.
Even though it seems sturdy and worth living. The condition is quite crowded because it seems the Zoastia race is more active at night.
Muar then looked at Agravain and said to him. The two of them had met each other on the trip.
"Agravain-dono, because you are a human and don't wear a hood like Nash-dono, don't feel offended if they look at you with strange or disgusted feelings."
Hearing Muar's words, Nash thought that in this world it seemed that racial discrimination was common. And if that were so, Nash would not be surprised if the slavery system still prevailed in this world.
Agravain only replied to Muar with a light nod, because that did not mean he would just kill people who were looking at him strangely.
"In that case, I will be happy to welcome you to the Zoastia Settlement."
***
Meanwhile, returning to the Holy Castle of Camelot, at this time, in front of the North Gate were three people standing and discussing with each other.
The first person was Esmeralda who still took Rhongomyniad with her.
The second person is a woman with blonde hair tied with a red hair tie, she has emerald eyes and a firm face. She is a tomboyish woman, guardian of the northern gate, Mordred Pendragon.
The third person is not a human, she is in one of the demi-human races in Yggdrasil, High-Gnome, she wears yellow clothes with a round hat and wooden sticks.
Although the Gate is called the Northern Gate, in this new world, Esmeralda realizes that the Northern Gate of Camelot is currently facing west.
"Hmmm ... so that won't work either, then what do you think is the best solution right now, Terra?"
Esmeralda asked the High-Gnome she called Terra. Terra is not a Custom NPC made by one of the pillars of the world, she is one of Mercenary NPCs.
The two of them are currently discussing ways to make Camelot inconspicuous at this time.
Esmeralda did that because now is not the right time to show Camelot to the world. Well, even though she admitted, if there was something she wanted to achieve in this world it might be to build an kingdom.
Terra who heard her queen's question thought for a moment, holding her chin, before she suddenly seemed to have an idea.
"Aha! I have an idea, my queen."
"What kind of idea?"
"What if we lowered the castle's height to the ground, then covered the surroundings of the Castle with mounds so that the people who came could not directly see our Castle and only thought of it as an ordinary hill."
Hearing Terra's ideas, Esmeralda thought for a moment, then nodded.
"Looks like we can use your idea, Terra. Good job."
"Hehe, thank you, my queen."
"However, try to make it not too steep, because it will restrict access to and from the Castle."
"Understood, my queen."
After that, Esmeralda returned to the Castle, Mordred returned to her post at the Northern Gate, and Terra along with other Gnome from the Dark Floor began their first work in the New World.
