105 – Selection of Heroes (4)

“Kyuakkyukkyun!!!”

The lizard-like creature ran away without answering the question.

“Hey! Wait for a sec!”

I ran after the guy who was trying to run away to catch him.

“Damn, where are you?”

The little guy that bit the branch quickly ran away and became invisible.

It was so far away that it wasn’t even detected by my detection magic.

But you haven’t missed it yet.

The traces of small feet stepping on the grass and the weak magical power of the branches of the World Tree remain on its escape route.

I observed the surroundings in detail and began to track him down.

“Anyway, that guy had similar magical power to Char… “What on earth are you doing?”

While I was tracking him, I felt a doubt.

Although it was hidden by the enormous magical power of the branches of the World Tree, the magical energy of the small monster felt nearby was clearly the same as that of the Tsar.

What on earth is that little guy?

[Char: A demonic beast born after being infected by contaminated mana from the divine beast that protected the World Tree. In the past, it was a fairy with thousands of wings, but it became infected with contaminated mana and its wings became bizarre tentacles.]

As usual, I had questions about the magical beast, so the system kindly explained it to me.

But… Is this an error?

The system showed the tsar’s information and did not show the little guy’s information.

This is a status window that has been messed with several times, so this one may also be an error.

Let’s just follow that little thing, trusting that the goddess will take care of it.

“But if you keep saying it’s small, it doesn’t sound right, does it? Should I give you some other nickname?”

It’s like a small doll modeled after the Tsar, and the system also took the Tsar’s explanation incorrectly, so how about calling it a Mini Tsar?

“It’s not bad. Ah, I should look for it sooner than that.”

I stopped thinking about anything else and set out to find Minichar.

After following Minichar’s traces for a while, I finally sensed his magical power.

I confirmed that he was resting and hid himself among the bushes.

‘If I sneak up on you, I might get caught…’ ?’

I carefully approached the area with the intention of catching him.

“Kkyun?”

When I heard a small rustling sound as the bushes moved slightly, it immediately looked towards me.

‘Tch. That won’t work. ‘He’s more sensitive than I thought.’

It is wary of even the slightest sound, so I don’t think it will be easy to approach it.

Then shall we just run and try to catch it?

No, I felt it when I was running away, but that Minichar is quite agile.

Even I, who am confident in my agility, will lose it at some point, so it would be best to stop trying to compete in speed.

‘Umm… It’s giving me a headache… ‘

Just like in the time of the great Tsar, there is nothing you can do to win the branch.

There is a lot of time to think.

Other warrior candidates are attracted to the giant tsar, and it appears that the existence of the mini tsar is not known, so there will be no competitors. So, there is plenty of time to think carefully about how to catch it.

The problem is that there is nothing that comes to mind.

“Ha… “There is no answer.”

“I see… “

“Wow?!”

When I was faced with a difficult situation and sighed, someone jumped out next to me.

I was startled by that and screamed.

“Shhh… ! Be quiet because it might run away… !”

The person who suddenly appeared hurriedly covered my mouth and whispered quietly.

The voice I heard was that of a boy.

I looked back to see who he was.

The boy was very short, but his hair was the same color as the sun high in the sky.

He is another warrior candidate, a boy named Sala who is likely to be the next Guardian of the Volcano.

“Are you calm? I’ll let you go, so you have to be quiet… ?”

When I nodded, Salah carefully removed his hand.

Ha… It’s a shame to be caught by a small boy, but what can you do? I should blame myself for being a weakling…

“You are Salah, right? “Why are you here?”

I asked the question naturally without showing any signs of embarrassment.

“Uh… “I’m also a candidate to become a hero, right?”

“I guess that’s right.”

Salado is a warrior candidate, so of course he will be here.

It just so happened that he was hiding out in search of that mini-char like me.

After fully assessing the situation, I made no sound and hid in the bushes with Sala.

“Are you also targeting that little demon beast, Salah?”

“Yes… But it’s not exactly the devil, it’s targeting the branch.”

As expected, it seems that Salah was hiding aiming for the mini-tsar.

‘Suddenly a competitor appears… And a pretty successful person is your competitor… ‘

I wondered if I should be impatient with the appearance of a competitor, but it looks like there is no way to catch the Minichar, so it seems difficult.

And I also have no means of catching Minichar.

In other words, now is not the time to compete, but to cooperate with Salah.

Humans are creatures that have survived through collective intelligence.

Rather than acting alone, you are better at acting in groups of two or more.

If you cooperate with Sala, you will be able to attempt to capture the Minichar in various ways that you cannot do alone.

That alone is reason enough to cooperate with Salah.

“If it’s okay with you, are you willing to cooperate? I’m not good at moving my body, but my head is amazing… “

“Ah… Thank you for the suggestion, but if so… “

“You have to decide who gets it after you get it. Isn’t there any proper way for Salah to catch that thing? How is it. “If you cooperate with me, you can definitely get the eggplant, right?”

“Umm… all right… “

Salah was still young, so I was persuaded by a few words.

Good, the persuasion was successful and you just need to think about the eggplant issue slowly.

Now all you have to do is tell Salah how to catch Minichar and act according to the plan.

I slowly explained the capture method I had thought of in advance.

“Well, can we catch it that way?”

“Sala-kun, have you ever caught a small herbivore like a rabbit?”

“No… Since I was young, I’ve only been hunting big monsters, and I’ve never caught anything like that….”

“Then trust me. “I’m sure it will be successful.”

“Yes… “

Salah nodded as if he had decided to trust me.

If Salah goes as planned, he will be able to catch the Mini Czar safely.

… But what is this feeling of heterogeneity?

I think something similar to this happened just a few hours ago?

I couldn’t do anything on my own, so I collaborated with Dorothy, but due to unexpected variables, I couldn’t catch the tsar.

Isn’t this completely identical to the current situation?

In a situation where there seems to be no answer, just like in the time of the Tsar, she is cooperating with Sala, who seems to be similar in age to Dorothy.

While I was feeling a strange sense of déjà vu, three signals were caught by the detection magic.

The one with stable magical power and divinity is Dorothy’s. The magic power of a wild horse running wild is Retin’s. And the owner of a strange magical power that feels both polluted and divine at the same time… Char.

“Bow down!”

I felt an ominous magical power coming this way without hesitation, so I pushed Sala and we stuck to the ground together.

Light flickered in the distance and a huge magical force came out and rushed toward Sala.

Afterwards, a sound rings out late and the surrounding area is swept away like a storm.

The bushes and trees caught in the wind are uprooted and blown away.

I somehow held on to the dry land to avoid being caught up in the magical storm.

The life that lies beneath me… When he fell, he was shocked and lost consciousness, so he didn’t move.

I guarded Salah and endured the storm with my teeth clenched.

“Ugh… I never thought it would turn out like this… !”

How come strange variables appear when things go even slightly well?

Aren’t the gods seriously planning something at this level?

[Name: Ivan Ira]

Strength: 2(+2), Magic Power: 8(+3), Agility: 7(+2)

Divinity: 10(+3), Spirit: ?, Luck: 1

“Ah! “I’m sorry for your lack of luck, goddess!”

I decided to just accept this sad fate because of the luck that appeared before my eyes as if to be sarcastic.

“Ugh… Priest? What happened… “

Sala came to his senses after hearing my shout.

“A monster came out. Oh, is it three marines?”

“Priest! “You’re a machine!”

“Here you are, the gloomy priest!”

“!!!!!!!”

Two people who looked like monsters to the average person and one real monster jumped out from the other side.

In a situation where a reliable ally or competitor appears and the scariest monster appears at the same time, the first to move is not Salah or me, but Minichar.

“Kkyun!!”

The Mini Char jumped up and ran towards the huge Char, and the four of us just looked at it, unable to react to its incredible speed.

When he saw the Minichar running towards him with a branch in his mouth, the Tsar opened his huge maw wide and the Minichar was swallowed up by the Tsar.

‘What…? ? Aren’t you two on the same side?’

After a while of being taken aback by the unexpected situation, the Tsar’s appearance gradually changes.

The Tsar, whose flesh and bones were rebuilt, tentacles twisted and twisted several times in grotesque ways, turned into an even more horrifying figure than before.
