After that, they encountered several more demons.
The Devil Bison seed to be classified as a strong enemy in this area, and they were defeated by the magic of the first group before any of the demons could get close enough to them.
There was absolutely no chance for , who was in Group 2, which was responsible for the close range attack, to take part in it.
........I'm bored.
Hm?
And then I detect a presence.
A few dozen ters away.
There was sothing hiding in the grass, slowly approaching us.
It's probably a demon.
Maybe it's because they're a little better at disguising their presence, but no one other than seems to have noticed it yet.
''Um, Celese-sister.''
I called out to Celestia.
Then everyone looked surprised, and even Arisa-san stared at with a horrible expression on her face.
''Don't call that familiar na during an independent seminar........!
Oh, I see.
I wasn't allowed to call her that in the presence of others.
Well, it's Leila, and I would normally call her that.
''More importantly, Leila-san. What's going on?
Only Celestia-san doesn't seem to mind at all, but rather is happy about it.
''Ah, unh. The demon is--
No, it's too late to explain now.
As if it had noticed that we had beco distracted, the demon was already leaping at us at breakneck speed.
"Windcutter!
Thump!
The demon's head flew off from the wind magic I released.
Even though it lost its head, the montum didn't stop imdiately, and the giant body slid on the ground for a while.
''Na.........''
Did you an to tell that we're being targeted by a monster?
It's already an afterthought, but I'll tell you with a smile like Leila.
'I didn't notice that at all...'
Hey, look. Isn't this the Assassin's Panther?
What? Seriously?
Apparently, it was a demon that was skilled at eliminating signs, and even skilled warriors could be taken by surprise and killed.
........hmmm?
A little bit of attention would have made it obvious.
There were a lot of demons in the forest that my dad took to when I was a kid, though, that were much better at hiding.
'And now magic...'
It's just a wind cutter.
But I've never seen a cut like this before...
Everyone rolled their eyes and looked at .
Is it really that surprising?
This is sothing Leila would do all the ti, right?
This is the Magical Sword Princess...
'I should have been called to this seminar in my first year...'
Of course, Her Highness couldn't be wrong about that.
Celestia-san says with a smirk.
''No, Leila-san's abilities aren't like this.
If I had to guess, it seems that it was just before the test that Leila decided to join this seminar.
This was the first ti for her to participate in practical training, and it was apparently the first ti for anyone other than Celestia-san to see Leila's magic.
Even so, as expected, it's too surprising.
Wind cutter is a beginner's magic, and its power is easy to adjust.
Then we took a little rest and resud our search.
We succeeded in defeating the demons several tis, and after a while
'Well then, gentlen, it's ti to get back to the city. Thank you for your efforts.
Apparently, this was the end of today's training.
I was about to return to the carriage.
''Your Highness, there's an orc-like demon approaching from over there.
When I looked in the direction that one of the participants was pointing, I saw that it was indeed an orc.
It may have already recognized us, but it ran over to us with its eyes bleeding.
''Then let's deal with that demon first.
Orcs aren't that strong of a demon.
If there were a lot of them, but it was only one.
In the midst of the relaxed air that it would be taken care of soon, I feel a sense of discomfort.
.........Isn't that guy's presence strange?
Aura" is a single word, but it is made up of many elents.
For example, breathing, footsteps, heat, scent, movent of muscles and bones associated with movent, circulation of blood, movent of organs such as the heart, and the magical power emitted from them.
Naturally, they are moving their bodies and approaching with a murderous atmosphere, so I can sense a strong presence, but... sothing is wrong.
There's still so distance between us, so if you get a little closer, I might be able to figure out what this strange feeling is.
'Fire Arrow.
"Firelance.
"Wind Arrow.
The mbers of the first group released long-range magic.
One orc was hit by several rounds of magic.
''Did you get it?''
What? Who?
Did you just raise the flag?
Sure enough, we didn't do it.
The orcs are coming towards us as if nothing happened.
''Huh........That's not a normal orc!
Surely you're one size too big... or are you a high orc?
Yeah, that's why it didn't work so well.
I'll just have to pay him a visit with so close-range magic.
High Orcs are a higher species of Orc.
It is considered to have a larger body, which makes it more powerful and durable.
Hmm, but there's not that much difference between a high oak and an oak, is there?
I have a feeling that that orc wasn't on that level of difference in the first place.......
''Boo-ohh!
An orc rushed in with a yell.
''Groundwall!''
The orcs collided with the wall of dirt that suddenly appeared.
There, the magic of the second group erupted in fire.
''Bu-ooh-ooh!
The Orcs let out a scream of dismay at the firepower that should have killed the Devil Bison earlier.
The giant body fell to the ground.
''........This size, it seems it was a high orc after all.
Celestia-san approached the charred orc.
''Ha! Watch out!
I couldn't help but scream.
The orc wasn't dead yet.
Despite its condition, there was clearly still a sign of it.
''Boo-oh!''
What?
Sure enough, the orc suddenly got up and pounced on Celestia, who was stunned by the suddenness of the situation.
