215 Herald Episode 4: Class A Adventurer Claude'S Hero Tan (Top)
We are ordered by our husband, Jen, to become S-rank adventurers.
There are two main conditions for becoming an S-Rank Adventurer.
The first is to get a recommendation from at least 3 countries that they deserve the S-rank.
The second is to do what the S-rank deserves.
We have already received a recommendation from Queen Castar, the Kingdom of Gashas.
And I just got a recommendation the other day from the Estea Kingdom, where I currently reside.
Later, we have come to the point where we can get the title of S-Rank Adventurer by doing the feat that S-Rank Adventurer deserves and, for the most part, the crusade of mighty demons.
That day, an emergency call was made from the Adventurer's Guild in the Kingdom of Estea to our clan, The Saviors.
"Recently, the Duchy of Rifel, a small country on the southeast side of the Kingdom of Estea, was occupied by demons. I'd like to ask Mr. Claude and the others to take it back."
"The recapture of the country, is...?
Eight of our key members are the Adventurer Guild in the capital of the Kingdom of Estea, and the receptionist is listening in the reception room.
"Yes. According to the story of those who have fled the Duchy of Riffel, a herd of undead have attacked. The Knights of the Principality tried to deal with it, as if they had no teeth and instantly the Duchy was occupied"
"What happened to the residents?
"Fortunately, most residents were able to escape because of the slow speed of movement of the undead itself, he said. But some of the belated villages have been destroyed, and many sacrifices have been made by the Knights."
... There seems to be a lot of sacrifice.
On the eastern side of the Kingdom of Estea, there is a crimson empire that Jen does not intend to go to, and because of this, Jen's eyes are scarcely (...), this can happen.
With or without Jen's scope of action, the likelihood of a tragedy changes dramatically.
I know it's not like complaining, but I want Jen to go around the world as soon as possible.
"It is unlikely that this country will suffer so far because the herd of undead will not try to leave the centre of the Duchy of Riffel. But you can't even leave a demon-occupied country alone forever. I want Mr. Claude and his men to join me in that recapture."
"We're not the only ones who want you to join us, are we?
"Yes, if it was meant to be, this is the kind of important, country-driven thing to do. But there's a reason why it's not easy."
The receptionist continues with a serious look.
"Apparently, those who die within the bounds of undead behavior become undead as they are, and they start attacking the living. Additionally, they say the undead will be back in action after a while even defeating them. Someone's probably using massive Necromancers."
"Things just get worse when someone with half the strength turns around."
The undead cannot be reduced, and the dead become undead and strip their fangs.
If you do poorly, you will have a negative cycle.
"Yeah, that's what I'm thinking here. If we don't defeat the users of Necromancer, it won't be useless to defeat the surrounding undead. I'd like to ask Mr. Claude and the others for that role."
"Are we using Necromancer?
"Yeah, we know what Mr. Claude and the others are capable of, so we won't be lagging behind the users of Necromancer. Most importantly, Mr. Claude and the others have the means to travel in the air. We can ignore the undead on the road, it's huge."
We are given inferior wind dragons (Wyburn) by our Lord, Jen.
Being able to move through the sky is just too much of an advantage.
"We will gather people from the Kingdom of Estea, as well as other neighbouring countries, to attract the surrounding undead. Where the undead has decreased from the center, we want Mr. Claude and the others to slap the big book. It would be wiser to give up just by land to get to the center"
According to the receptionist's story, the number of undead will exceed at least 10,000.
Each and every undead is clearly weak, but with that many troops of immortality, it won't be easy to get there.
"I also thought about asking the Dragon Knights of Queen Castar, but now the Queen is out of the country at the summit. In the meantime, I can't ask you to send the main force far away. We have to do something with the neighbouring countries alone."
An inferior flying dragon (Wyburn) given by Jen, but is to be given publicly by Queen Castar.
Precisely from Dear Gene, the Queen's Knight. Well, Master Gene is Jen's tentative appearance.
"Later, this request will be for nomination from the Kingdom of Estea and the Principality of Rifel"
"Isn't that a mandatory request?
In times of crisis in a city or country, as a compulsory request, adventurers in that city can be forcibly summoned.
Besides, it's one of the things adventurers hate the most because the asking fee for compulsory requests is low.
It's like the privilege of a high-ranking adventurer because the opposing nomination request is unenforceable and the request fee is expensive depending on the adventurer rank.
... Well, some people don't like it because there's not much trouble that comes with it. Like Jen......
"Yeah, some conditions were not in place and we couldn't force the recapture operation. The role of attracting the surrounding undead will also basically be to ask the Knights of the Country and their bona fide collaborators. Of course, there will be a request fee…"
It's a herd of undead enough to occupy the country.
If there is no direct damage, there is no reason not to want to get your hands on it.
Especially since this country has few adventurers and seekers tend to hate fighting outside the labyrinth.
But it is not an issue that can be left alone if we think at national level.
"If Mr. Claude and the others refuse, we will have no choice but to await the return of the Queen of Castar, Sakya, and send a Dragon Knights regiment, including Queen Jean. Until then, I hope things don't move..."
When we say no, it looks like we're going to talk to Sakuya and Jen.
There's no way we can put the two of us through this alone.
I look over at the people around me.
Each one of them is snorting and smiling at me.
Only Iris, who was afraid of Jen, was afraid of making Jen take the trouble, making him stare and nod again and again.
"Okay. If it's all right with us, we can help you with that recapture operation."
"Is it true! Thanks!
Thus, we have decided to assume the core of the Duchy of Riffel recapture operation.
As a result of the meeting, it was said that the operation would begin a week later.
As it was a sudden story, the neighbouring countries were in a great rush to prepare.
Among other things, useful was the inferior wind dragon (Wyburn), which was given to the Kingdom of Estea.
Before, when we were given the Bad Wind Dragon (Wyburn), Cattleya of Estea Kingdom also wanted the Bad Wind Dragon (Wyburn).
Conditioned by Jen, Katrea managed to achieve it and was to be given 51 inferior wind dragons (Wyburn).
Then you will want to slap the user of Necromancer with the inferior wind dragon (Wyburn) of the Estea Kingdom, but that is difficult.
Because in the Kingdom of Estea, inferior wind dragons (Wyburn) are only a gift.
We did not intend to make it the main force from the beginning, but placed emphasis on putting it on a knight who could ride better than a strong knight, as a liaison and transport.
Simply put, the Dragon Knight of the Kingdom of Estea is weak.
Nevertheless, the availability of means of mobility and communication is significant, and we will be able to align ourselves with the people of the surrounding countries in a short period of one week, if we are ready for the recapture operation.
In the meantime, we were not asked to act as liaison officers by Wyburn.
They want you to get ready at all and increase the success rate of the recapture operation.
"We will also participate in the recapture operation."
"" I'll join you ""
It's a role in attracting the demons around us.
As we were dining at Jen's mansion, four members of The Savior (Sabres), Cynthia, Karen, Soura and Kate, who work at Estea, spoke to us.
They are the slaves of Jen as well as we are the seekers who were ordered to attack the Labyrinth.
"That helps, but is it good? Isn't that a labyrinth attack?
"You can never subordinate yourself to Jen's orders. I will never forgive you. If you want to die so badly, die at will where it has nothing to do with Jen's orders."
It was Knott who asked the four of them.
And when Jen gets involved, Illis breaks. I'm usually a calm kid......
Mr. Iris, there's no way I would disobey Jen's orders, is there? Naturally, the labyrinth offense is going well, and the 50-layer offense is not far. However, I am not willing to attack Jen at a time when he will not return much. I would like to report the 50-layer attack directly to Jen. "
"I understand! You want Jen to praise you directly!
"Yes, if you could stroke it with your head, it would be a supreme pleasure!
"I know that too!
Mr. Kate is one who worships Jen as a god. Sometimes my spine gets cold at that statement.
On the other hand, Lolo, who has given his consent, has a pure fondness for Jen. Pure... yeah, let's just say pure. That's happiness for everyone.
The two people with the conversation meshing, but in fact, the content may not be meshing at all.
"Both of you, make that about it because we can't talk about it. Well, if you don't disobey Jen's orders, I'm not going to say anything. I'm sorry I doubted you."
"Never mind. If I had been in the opposite position, I would have asked you the same thing."
Look, my spine got cold.
"Now it's 47 layers! If you attack 50 layers, Cynthia and the others will also receive the Inferior Wind Dragon (Wyburn). If I could, I wanted the recapture operation to follow!
The labyrinth has all 50 layers...... actually up to 60 layers, but only up to 50 layers can a normal explorer go.
No one has attacked everything... except Jen.
Dawn, when Cynthia and the others attacked the labyrinth, is to be presented with the inferior Wind Dragon (Wyburn), as is Katrea.
"I don't think I can do that on a boulder..."
Adele's right, we won't be able to postpone the recapture operation for that reason.
"What, are we going on our inferior wind dragon (Wyburn)?
"Cynthia and the others are welcome ~?"
Coco and Sicily's suggestion, but Mr. Kate shook his head sideways.
"I'm happy to invite you, but you should avoid that in order to clarify your achievements."
"Right. This case is a careless way of putting it, but it's a good opportunity. The indeterminate element should be reduced."
To Kate's words, Julia nodded as well.
"What do you mean, an opportunity?
"Oh well..."
Knott and Sicily don't seem to understand it, but Coco seems to have noticed it critically.
"This battle will be enough to make us S-ranked. I think we should do this alone, not to diminish our achievements."
"Oh, I see. If you ask me, yeah. All right! I'm motivated by Russia!
Understood knots burn motivation.
Yes. In many ways, this battle is an operation that cannot fail.
"Instead, why don't you notice? Given Jen's orders, you should realize it soon!
"Eh heh."
Iris, I think it's harsh to expect that from Sicily.
"I want you to leave it to me to interpret the undead! I'm used to it because I was hunting the undead to death on a 30-layer platform!
"It was tough, wasn't it, Karen?"
"That was harsh, wasn't it, Soura?"
"On the 30-layer platform, I didn't have time to rest. If you hadn't learned the art of restoring health with a short rest, you wouldn't have been able to fight through it."
In the labyrinth 30-layer platform I hear you talk about, the undead is coming in countless boils.
The four people who survived it are exactly the right people for this recapture operation.
Except for Mr. Cynthia, however, it seems to be damaging to your heart...
I'll take care of the guards. You can fight in the center without worrying.
"Thank you. Very, very comforting."
I know exactly what Cynthia and the others are capable of.
If Cynthia and the others are going to attract demons around, you don't have to worry about them.
That wasn't the only glad reinforcement.
"Tyra, join the war."
"We are also sending personnel from the Ato Coalition for this recapture operation. My concubines also asked me to be a powerful member of the Union of Atho Nations. I could have said no because I'm not an adventurer, but I wouldn't have said so if my people were going to join me."
"I'll take care of it!
"Regards"
Three men, Mr. Tiramisu, Mr. Chocolat and Mr. Maple, who are mercenaries in the Union of Ato Nations, are set to join us in the war.
The reason they are mercenaries, not adventurers, is because they are demons and cannot register adventurers. Especially when it comes to mercenaries, it's exclusive to the Advanced Chamber of Commerce, which is within me...
As a matter of fact, Cynthia and the others have less contact than the Explorers, but they know their strength well enough. Because I've seen you use powerful magic at get-togethers and such many times.
"One of the aims of the concubines is to crusade the evil demons around the Union. It doesn't look like a demon who ran away from the Union, but there's no certainty that it's irrelevant."
"There's no demon I know who could do this, but you don't know what's going to happen in the world..."
"That synonym is Honey, isn't it?"
Mr. Tiramisu calls Jen Honey.
Sure, I don't know what happens around Jen. And there is no guarantee that Jen is the only one with such a strange existence.
"Mr. Chocolate and Mr. Maple can fly through the sky, right? Are you going to accompany us to the center?
"No, I've heard from Kate, so it's an undead interruption around. The magic of the concubines will be treasured because it will reduce the number from a distance."
"Tyra is the only stone thrower."
Ms Chocolat and Mr Tiramisu answer Mr Yulia's question.
Mr. Tiramisu can't use magic at all, he seems to be a demon who says' dinosaur '.
Except it's a terribly hard, strong, pure power fighter.
"I want you to make a firm decision because you're giving up your place of action."
"Come on. ♪ Come on. ♪
I'll take care of it.
"Yes, I understand. Leave it to me."
Master Jen will be joining two groups.
At last, I can't show my pity.
More and more, it becomes an unbeatable battle.
In the week leading up to the start of the operation, we spent preparing for the Duchy of Rifel recapture operation without receiving any other requests.
All necessary supplies, such as potions, are available at Advanced Chamber of Commerce stores.
The Advanced Chamber of Commerce is run by Jen-san's subordinates, so clearly, it is within me, but the relationship is not public, so it is necessary to purchase it normally.
I'm getting a sneak discount...
Buy it in bulk and put it in the item box.
This is a super luxury item box with an extra large capacity acquired during an adventure.
With this one, a mansion will not be built or built in the 1st class of the Wang capital... Because our purpose is not to make money, we can't sell anything we need for adventure, no matter how much money we get piled up.
And that super luxury item box... it's actually a disguise for your husband's. Really funny.
Next, assemble the weapons and protective equipment.
Even so, it's impossible to prepare a new weapon now, so much so that Knott, the blacksmith, will have it serviced (maintained).
"I don't seem to have time... so do I... help..."
"If Mimi can help you, you've got 100 men."
Mimi of Dwarf is one of Knott's masters.
This time, the prep time is sometimes said to be one week, so to reduce the burden on Knott, he was supposed to help me develop the weapon.
Mimi herself, an awesome swordsman, said she stopped standing on the battlefield.
He also told me that he was fighting because he was compelled to, so now that he no longer needed it, he said he wanted to focus only on hitting weapons for Jen.
Try fitting two serviced weapons, protective equipment.
Familiarize yourself with the body because it is a gear you are used to. Then the comfort of using it seems brand new.
"With that said, you made gear for the undead, right? You might as well have used it anyway."
As a matter of fact, Knott used to create weapons for the undead for a number of people.
Because the motive competed for the speed of crusading undead demons at a get-together.
This time, you'll be dealing with a lot of undead, so with anti-undead weapons, you'll be able to fight a lot easier.
But I shake my head to the side and deny it.
"You didn't make that weapon out of the material we got on our adventure, did you? You shouldn't use it when you want to be strong in S-rank."
"... so is that. Sorry, you said something weird."
"Besides, our goal is to use Necromancer. There's no guarantee anywhere that Soyts is undead, is there?
I often hear you say undead using, but humans can also use Necromancer.
"Oh, there's plenty of human potential for a mastermind."
"I think you should be able to deal with any opponent with a weapon you are used to, without betting a bit poorly"
"Right."
Finally, check your moves.
It is no exaggeration to say that most of the 10 days were spent on this hour.
Firstly, confirmation of collaboration within the peers.
We will focus on working together as two four-person parties.
Split into me, Coco, Sicily, Julia's group and Adele, Knott, Rollo, and Iris's group to reconfirm the formation against demons and interpersonal forms.
Next is working together as an eight-person party.
Now he is unconscious of the foursome and adjusts his movements so that each of the eight plays a role.
I'm the party leader, but when I work as an eight-member party, I leave the overall command to Julia in the rear guard.
Coordinate the collaboration by changing the pair, threesome and party members.
I will be able to work with whoever I work with.
Training is then provided to solve individual challenges.
This is to be done as a voluntary training, since each of the tasks is different.
My downside is my lack of certainty.
Apart from the story if you use 'spiritualization' or something with Mr. Yulia's help, the stand-alone offense is lower.
Shielded one-handed swordsman doesn't require that much attack power, but there's not enough to name the S-rank. At the very least, I want to keep one or two of the attacks that serve as trump cards.
"Ha, ha..."
"You're doing it again. Such unscrupulous training, why don't you stop?
As he was falling down exhausted and in big letters at the training ground, Coco, who had been training nearby, looked frightened and called out.
"It doesn't make sense to say that, yes..."
"Yes, water."
"Thanks, Ha..."
Wake up only the upper body and drink up the water given to you gook.
Seems more burdensome than I thought.
"Because I'm not a genius. You can't be stronger than a normal person if you're doing the same thing."
"... I know how you feel, but you won't even have to put in a bad bet. It's not that easy to express your unique skills."
Yes, my purpose is to express my skills.
It is also a powerful and unparalleled skill that Jen classifies as unique.
"Can't you just be satisfied with the shrinkage method?
"I can't. It's not enough. It's not determinative."
I have already successfully expressed one unique skill.
But that's not even good enough for me right now.
"That's patience until you're S-ranked, too, isn't it?
"On my own, I want to get it"
"I'm sorry..."
Coco laughs bitterly, but this is all I can't give in.
"Last, because it's a chance..."
"If Claude says so much, I won't stop. Six days left, good luck."
"Let me do that."
I guess Coco had a break too.
That's all I said, I was back in my training.
Come on, let's step on one more, shall we?
It seemed like a long, short week had passed.
We have come as far as the border between the Kingdom of Estea and the Duchy of Rifel.
At present, knights and adventurers from the surrounding countries are deployed to surround the Duchy of Rifel.
Since we cannot surround ourselves fully with boulders, it is a strategy that divides us into about 30 groups and destroys each while attracting the undead.
Since the undead are revived due to the passage of time, it was considered difficult to continue the battle for too long, and the time limit was two hours, after which it became a policy to draw troops once and make the operation a failure.
In that case, our survival seems to be judged desperate.
"How's the undead moving?
I ask the guild officials of the Kingdom of Estea at the operational headquarters of Operation Retrieval.
"Still, no big move. It's so creepy to keep the country occupied so dignified that you don't do anything."
The undead haven't seen any major moves in over the past week.
Tensions were rising in neighbouring countries to the undead, who continued to occupy the country with unknown aims.
Check once more the placement of troops, the geography of the Principality of Rifel, etc.
Perhaps there will be a mastermind in the capital of the Principality of Rifel.
It's time for the operation to begin.
The operational start time is fast approaching.
"Well, we'll start getting ready, too."
"Regards"
Then a little while later, the Duchy of Rifel recapture operation was launched.
First, the surrounding troops march to the Duchy of Rifel, attracting the undead.
After attracting the undead for some time and repeatedly destroying each of them, we will be heading to the center aboard the inferior wind dragon (Wyburn).
While we're making the last adjustments, there's also a bunch of breaking news coming in.
Says a large undead has appeared everywhere, shooting away adventurers and knights.
Says a large undead was crushed with stones thrown by a toddler girl in pretentious clothes.
Says a large undead was beaten to pieces by a girl in maid clothes.
Says the guys in maid clothes are mostly strong.
Says the undead defeated by some adventurers, mercenaries and maid clothes will not be revived, so they are pushing the front up a little bit.
Says, the purpose is to attract, so rather don't push up the front.
More than half, I have an idea...
I feel like I have a lot of inside stuff, but at least the war isn't bad.
And as the war began to glue, it was finally our departure.
"Well, let's go"
"Ooh!" x7

Race: High Elves
Equipment: Whip + Dagger
Notes: Adventurers group oldest (about 400 years old) amnesia silver hair lolibaba (excuse me).

He possesses a high level of "spiritualization," a trump card for the Adventurers group. The problem at hand is that the body does not grow like other members (pedigree characteristics).
