A few monts after I started to retreat, I heard the sound of battle behind . It seems that the players from the other side have joined the fray. Then I guess my role is over for now. I decided to return to the old lake.
When I returned to the old lake, everyone shouted.
Unfair!
That's the first thing they said.
"I don't know what you're talking about. We were just leading the boss. I don't like being called a cheater by a commander who has just completed a mission with a high risk of dying again"
Gu...
Yes. We won. It will be okay if you co here for the ti being. Ruin-sans group cos when I'm recovering the girls.
"You're back safely"
"I'm glad to hear that, but you must have made a mistake by taking all the points for yourself. Well, it was fun for us to see how upset they were"
Ruin-san is quite a character...anyway, we take a break. We will discuss the future developnt there.
"Takuto-kun, you think the enemy will get stronger and stronger from now on, right?"
"Yes. Although I don't think there will be an army of forty"
"Well, we don't have much ti..."
I don't think we can handle them. It depends on the number of legions, though. Then I explained to Ruin-san about a certain strategy.
"In fact, I have a friend on the other side and I'd like to ask him to pass on our plan to people who might be interested in joining us"
"At this ti?"
"Yes. I am convinced that our strategy is more solid based on the information provided by Mangetsu-san and the others and even if the information is passed on to the leaders of the other side, it will be too late"
"...It's a good thing we have more forces than we do. The problem of coordination will be...alright. I understand. I'll talk to the others and Takuto-kun, you contact your friend"
"Yes, ma'am!"
"Stop it!"
Ruin-san apparently did not like shouting. I contacted Arleigh by communication.
Are you sure you know the strategy!? I didn't see any such information on the bulletin board!?
"We've parted ways, you know. So. What do you do? If you co here, youll have a lot of points and a high survival rate?"
Hu...of course I'm going. And what am I supposed to do?
This guy is surprisingly perceptive, isn't he?
"I want you to call out to the party that might be willing to join us with this information"
Understood. Even so, isn't it terrible to send information at this ti?
"That's a complint. Then, do your best to gather your friends. I'm counting on you"
Don't put pressure on . Well, I'll live up to your expectations, but next ti give the information earlier
"It's up to you. Good luck"
The monkey business is now complete. The rest depended on Arleigh's performance.
When we were taking a break after the monkey business, Yug-san asked .
"What kind of devil is Astaroth? I don't know much about it. I know it from gas, but"
Well, I guess that's what most people think. Ruin-san explained.
"I can't say it unconditionally because it appears in various religions and stories, but Astaroth is one of the 72 pillars of Solomon and is said to be an angelic figure astride a dragon and holding a viper in her right hand"
"What can I say...it's packed with settings...or is it a devil but an angel?"
"There is a story that she was originally a goddess. She's also a devil who talked about the fallen angels"
Hee. I didn't know that.
"She has the power to see into the past and future, right?"
"Yes. If she really has that kind of power, we're dood because our plan is already known"
That's the point, isn't it? Well, I don't think she has that kind of power. The problem is the angel form, it doesn't have viper, but it does have poison. So where's the dragon? That's the story.
"Do you think a dragon will co out as an enemy?"
"It was written on the mural and it will have sothing to do with it...anyway, since it's a last-ditch attempt, we'll have to make so assumptions. What do you plan to do now, Takuto-kun?"
"I'm going to stay low until it's my turn. I have to lend you Liqueur"
"That would be great"
After an hour of rest, l and the others arrived. The waiting mbers took turns taking a break. There, Hokage-san, who had gone on a scouting mission, ca back and reported to Ruin-san.
"Thank you for your hard work. How about the boss and the other side?"
"The boss seems to have summoned a mysterious Demon after all the Demons were wiped out, degozaru. It has a sword and seems to be a very difficult opponent, degozaru. Takuto-dono withdrew at a good ti, degozaru"
I was quite worried about it. I'm glad it turned out to be the right decision.
"I wonder if there was any damage over there?"
"I think it's only a little, degozaru. It seems that they are planning to et Astaroth at the pyramid where King Kong was, degozaru. It seems that they have set up troops to guide the boss in various places, degozaru, but players who want points will go towards the enemy"
"So they've been damaged"
I see. But the pyramid is certainly a good place for intercepting. It's a big enemy and if you're attacked, you can use the pyramid as a shield.
As I was admiring the pyramid, I suddenly heard an explosion and a trendous impact from the forest. The sudden impact threw Riko and Mirai off balance, so I supported them.
"Are you okay?"
""Y...Yes...""
As expected of twins, their reactions are the sa. So I looked from behind.
""""Muu!""""
My girls beco sullen. And l is also pouting.
"I've lost my balance too, you know? And how long will you support them?"
Don't be absurd. Two is the limit! I let them go for now. Then, with every footstep and sound, there was an echo of impact from the ground. When I saw Astaroth, it started to move slowly.
So that ans the attack earlier was Astaroth's attack. I wondered how many players had been sacrificed...and Astaroth wasn't coming towards us. It seems to be heading in the direction King Kong ca from.
Did they choose it just because it is suitable for interception? Or is there any strategy like ours? Let's see what they do.
As I was thinking this, Tristan-san ca over to .
"I'm going to check out the information for now. Takuto-kun. Lend Liqueur-chan"
"I'm coming with you. It's a ninja's duty to be a scout. If possible, I would like to borrow a horse, degozaru"
I look at the supre commander.
"The two of you are the right people for the job. I can't make a decision without information first"
"Well...then I'll submit a party application"
I submit the party request and they accept. I imdiately called Liqueur and Darley.
"This is the horse of this ga! It's still super realistic! ...Degozaru"
Ah, that was a mistake.
"Then I'll borrow Liqueur-chan"
"I'll borrow it too, degozaru!"
"Please return him"
I said so, but they left without replying. I'm worried if they will return my horses properly.

Author note:
It's not much of a monkey business, but this is how Arleigh's participation went down.
