"Those are… goblin!" A student said in a high voice when he saw a green creature in the bushes. His words alerted the other students who heard him and quickly manifested their Phantasmal Objects.
"Where is that monster!? All of you, Ready to fight!" Daisuke quickly ca along with the other senior Realizers and the teachers when he heard the shout.
"The goblin has fled, leader!" One of the male students pointed at the bushes where the goblin had appeared.
"Chase the monster! We might be able to find their hiding place if we follow that goblin! Don't forget to pay attention to your surroundings when you run after him!" Daisuke gave the order and quickly ran in the direction the student was pointing at. He gave the students a warning before he left.
The situation around Lake Shima was quite dark because it was already night. Daisuke didn't want the students to have an unexpected accident or get a sneak attack from a monster.
After hearing Daisuke's words, the teachers and other senior Realizers imdiately followed behind him. The students also ran after the goblin. Akio and his group were at the forefront as they beca excited after finding the monster they had been looking for all day.
"Let's go after that monster!" Takaya and Noboru quickly ran after the students and left only Tenku and Akina in that place.
"Let's go too, Tenku!" Akina smiled and waited for him. She wanted to fight those monsters together with Tenku and protect him. Akina didn't want to underestimate Tenku, but she had to act according to reality.
Tenku had only awakened an F-rank Phantasmal Object, and his combat power was not even one star. He would have a hard ti just killing a goblin and must have known that. Therefore, Akina wanted to help and protect him, just like what Tenku had done to her in the past.
"Yes." Tenku nodded, and both ran towards Takaya, and Noboru had left. He felt strange about the goblin's behavior, but it was no point in thinking about it. If he wanted to know the answer, he had to follow the monster and see firsthand what its purpose was to appear at their camp and flee suddenly.
The goblin sprinted and fled into a grass field with trees surrounding it. The monster didn't stop there and continued running to the part of the forest across the adow. But before he entered the forest area, the goblin strangely stumbled and fell.
"Now is our chance! Kill the goblin before he goes into the forest! Otherwise, we will lose it!" Daisuke gave orders to the students. Originally he intended to continue following the monsters and find their hiding place. But he realized that if the goblins were allowed into the forest, they would lose track of him. So he decided to kill the monster instead of letting it escape.
Akio ran fast and arrived in front of the monster before the other students. He could reach the goblin first, not because he was the fastest among the students on the mission. He could do so because the second and third-year students allowed first-year students to fight head-to-head against monsters.
The first-year students had given up on pursuing it when they saw that Akio had arrived before the goblin and swung his sword.
Slash!
The monster split in two, and Akio stood there proudly.
"As expected of Akio!"
"He swung his sword and killed the goblin without hesitation!"
The students said in awe when they saw that. Not long after, Asuka, Michiko, and Daichi arrived before the monster's corpse.
"I lost to you, Akio!" Daichi said disappointedly and patted Akio's shoulder.
"You're great, Akio!" Michiko smiled and praised him.
"Yes. A goblin is nothing to Akio!" Asuka nodded in agreent.
"It's not that impressive. I didn't even use my full power." Akio shook his head and tried to be humble under the complints. The students crowd around Akio, and their position is now in the middle of the adow. Akio secretly glanced at Setsuka's group coming toward him, or rather the goblin corpse.
The teachers and senior Realizers followed closely behind to examine the monster's corpse. But they suddenly stopped their footsteps after hearing rustling sounds from the forest around them.
"Get out of here quickly!" Daisuke shouted from the depths of his lungs to warn the students, but it was already too late. Dozens of fiery arrows shot from the forest, raining down on them. Most of the first-year students panicked at the sudden change of situation and didn't have ti to react.
"Damn! Block that arrow!" Daisuke clicked his tongue. He and the other senior Realizers prepared to block the arrows coming at them. But before they could act, a cold mist spread around them and froze the arrows.
"That is…" Daisuke muttered and looked at a girl with a bluish katana sword in her hand.
"She bears the na Snow Miko not without reason. Amazing!" Daisuke said in awe when he saw the arrows frozen and scattered around him.
On the other hand, Tenku stood quietly among the students and looked in a certain direction in the forest. He narrowed his eyes after feeling soone's faint presence there. But Tenku couldn't leave the place suddenly to check it out because the people around him would be suspicious.
anwhile, on the branch of a large tree in the forest, a person wearing a black robe laughed while watching Daisuke and the students panicking in the adow.
"Hahaha… as expected of the Snow Miko! She acted quickly. But I still have a lot of surprises for them!" The black-robed person grinned evilly from behind his mask and opened the parchnt he took from inside his sleeve.
The parchnt was the trigger to activate the other parchnt he had hidden in the forest around the adow.
"Leave this place imdiately and return to camp!" Daisuke shouted, and the panicked students quickly returned to their senses. But light suddenly appeared in several directions in the forest around them, accompanied by a terrifying roar.
Roaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrr!
"What's that!?" a first-year student said in fear. The ground shook, and monsters sprang up from within the forest.
"Shit! Get back to camp imdiately!" Daisuke repeated his order. But when he turned around, he was shocked to see a horde of orcs erge from the path they had walked.
Not long after that, the adow was overrun by hordes of monsters erging from the surrounding forest. The monsters that ca were goblins, orcs, and Lone Wolf. The number of monsters was not small and exceeded the number of students on the mission. When Daisuke and the other senior Realizers saw the scene, they quickly realized they had been trapped.
"We are trapped! Soone is controlling those monsters! Get out, you bastard! I know you must be looking at us! Are you a mouse who can only hide!? You are a coward!" Daisuke shouted and looked around. He was sure that the person controlling the monsters was hiding among the trees in the forest.
"Hahaha! A senior Realizer from an official organization was indeed different. You can quickly find out where I am. Even so, nothing will change with your situation!" a person in black robes suddenly appeared behind the horde of monsters.
Tenku raised his eyebrows when he saw that person. He was sure that the mask the person was wearing was the sa one he had killed around his apartnt area, but this one was dark green.
(According to the information from the person I killed, the black-robed person in front of should be the captain in the Ghost Nebula, and his Realizer phase is the asteroid. Then what exactly were they planning in this place?)
Tenku frowned and felt that sothing terrible was about to happen. No, that bad thing had happened with the appearance of the monster horde. But worse things might co after.
Setsuka, Kaede, and so second-year students who took part in the mission to eliminate the monsters roaming the city a few days ago also recognized the black-robed person.
"You… Are you a mber of the terrorist organization that has been wreaking havoc in Japan recently?" Daisuke narrowed his eyes and recognized the person's characteristics.
Although Daisuke did not participate in the monster extermination mission in the city, he kept updating information about the problems in Japan, especially in the Holy Union area. Daisuke had seen the report of a dead black-robed person suspected to be a mber of a terrorist organization. He quickly realized that the pattern of the corpse's mask was the sa as the black-robed person in front of him.
"Hmm? Do you recognize ? Were you the one who killed one of our mbers?" The black-robed person was shocked after hearing Daisuke's words. But then the atmosphere around him suddenly changed.
The mbers of his organization always act clandestinely and cautiously to create terror in various areas of Japan. But recently, he got the news that one of the lieutenants of the Ghost Nebula had died for unknown reasons.
"I killed him! What can you do? Aren't you just a weakling who always hides in the dark and never dares to go against the Realizer of the organization head-on? If it weren't for these monsters, you'd be just a rat in my eyes!" Daisuke sneered and tried to provoke the black-robed person into a one-on-one fight.
Daisuke knew they would be overwheld if they had to fight that many monsters with those first-year students. So he decided to kill the controllers and pave the way for them to escape.
"Good! Good! Since you dare to provoke our organization, I will give you the most painful death and torture those students. Aren't there many beautiful female students? In that case, I will give them to the goblins as their gratification and breeding object! I will make you despair!" The black-robed person was angry at Daisuke's words but didn't fall for his provocation. He took out another scroll of parchnt and opened it.
A dazzling light appeared within the forest and was accompanied by a deafening roar. Then hordes of ogres ca out from that direction one after another and made their situation even more dangerous.
Roaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
