"Goodbye, Bartolo."

"Goodbye, Tullio."

Bartro looked forward to the next time they met.

There were laughter and joy coming from the orphanage.

He wanted to sneak a peek inside, but Lakta seemed to notice Ye Kai and nodded at Remzi's shoulder. Ye Kai greeted Remzi and Lakta frankly when they came out.

"Yeah! I'm much better than before. I can eat my fill now, no problem."

Their mental state is shockingly good.

"I have to thank Ye Kai for everything. I will definitely repay you next time."

"It's satisfying to see you so energetic."

Then, he told them the news of their upcoming departure.

"Eh?"

"What's wrong? Ye Kai, are you guys leaving?"

"I'm sorry, we are wanderers. We can't take care of you all the time. But don't worry. You can take care of yourselves now, right?"

Without saying anything, Remzi silently hugged Ye Kai, and her silent protest was somewhat effective. But she pulled herself together, holding back tears with red eyes, and said nothing to keep him.

"I will always remember your kindness. Please take care of yourself."

In order to persuade her, Ye Kai kissed her forehead and promised a goodbye that might not be possible.

It should be fine. Remzi has a knight named Lakta. I believe they will have a happy future, Ye Kai thought, and left that place.

"Okay, that should be enough rest, let's run as much as we want."

"Yeah, Blue. All the pressure is off, right?"

"Tweet!"

"Tweet!"

As soon as they left the city gate, they immediately jumped on their mounts and let them gallop freely. Going north from here is the orc settlement area, but from Laenkia to the south is still the vast territory of the Kingdom of Phrygia, which is the favorite place for the Senel birds to fly.

————————————————————————

The mission I received from the Adventurer's Guild was to investigate the large monsters in the Karakumi Forest.

Based on the dangerous information confirmed by other adventurer teams, there are often requests for subjugation. However, it is rare to accept such vague requests because the target monster is not clearly specified.

Normally, this type of dangerous information, even if the target is unclear but has left traces, will first be sent out as an investigation request to a private team of high-level adventurers, and then the request will be made public after the target is confirmed.

Of course, in this kind of investigation, even if the target monster is found, it may still be conquered, which is more common.

For high-level teams, it is also a kind of pride to complete the task. For this investigation request, adventurers usually plan to stay for a period of time, usually more than four to five days, and then register.

The reason why the investigation request in Karakumi Forest was unusual this time was that it was made public without the target being confirmed.

In simple terms, although an investigation request was issued, the investigation team disappeared. The Adventurer's Guild may have made several investigation requests, but if none of them succeeded, such a request would occur. Although this situation is very dangerous, the Adventurer's Guild is in a situation where it cannot stay out of it.

"There are some large stegosaurus in the wetlands. Normally, if you encounter one, you'll probably be wiped out."

All three agreed.

“It might be a good idea to go and have a look, right?”

"Getting involved in trouble is not something I recommend."

"What did you say!"

"Well--!"

"what?"

The Karakumi forest we reached was a distant and vast forest compared to the strip forests seen on the plains.

Although it was difficult to explore, it was not surprising that anything could appear. Challenging something like that would be daunting. Seeing that everyone except me was unanimous, they decided to let Warcraft Radar do its best.

“It’s okay, but it feels a bit unfair to be taken advantage of.”

"If you can use something, you should use it. Even a cat should be used, right?"

Ye Kai replied with a skeptical look: "Cats are cute and can make people relax. Can they also be useful?"

"How can that be possible? My cat can't make weapons or fight."

“Should I think more about the meaning of my existence?”

"Rather than that, perhaps we should consider the unexpected nature of existence itself?"

"How about trying to have a fight to deepen our friendship?"

"If only we could live long enough for our friendship to deepen."

That's not a funny thing to say.

“You’re all great.”

Using wide-area search, Ye Kai sensed the widely dispersed teams of adventurers, each of whom was exploring or fighting.

“Maybe there’s a big guy out there?”

"Search magic cannot determine size."

"Yeah. So what should we do?"

"Isn't this just gambling? The one who bets correctly gets the profit."

Those who are lucky enough to obtain information will receive commissions. This is really a typical adventurer's thinking. However, the person with Tulio is not an ordinary adventurer.

“Is there a hole in the search network?”

“There are several places within sight.”

“Then go there.”

"clear."

Even at times like this, no, especially at times like this, act sensibly.

------------------

The Karakumi forest consists of tall broad-leaved trees.

There are some gaps between the trees, but there are few shadows for sunlight to shine through, and there is not much vegetation below. Instead, the ground is often covered with moss and feels wet. Although the ground underfoot is uneven with tree roots, etc., there are many open spaces, which even the senna bird can easily enter.

"Even with such a wide field of vision, it is hard to understand why we cannot identify large monsters."

"Maybe it moved too fast, or it cast magic from a distance. In the worst case, it might move in the tree without being noticed. There are many possibilities, right?"

Tulio thought his idea made sense, but it was quickly rejected.

"If that's the case, then even its existence is difficult to confirm, so the initial danger information can't be released, right?"

"You've thought it through so well..."

“But the question of how difficult it is to confirm may be at the core.”

The words "transformation..." emerged in Ye Kai's mind as a possibility.

“Even so, it left behind the message ‘large’, which is a definite trace, right?”

"I want to confirm it just based on that trace. Maybe I can limit the target to a certain extent."

“I see. Eventually, we’ll just have to move around.”

“It’s straightforward, but that’s all it can be.”
