The day after I was expelled from the adventurers guild, searching for orcs, I came to the forest behind the town.

It is to earn income, but I also thought that there might be those who have all kinds of names like the goblins.

The battle with Lyle was a good lesson.

Though I was taken by surprise, it proved that one can win against a stronger opponent even if one only use useful Skills.

Ive reached the conclusion that to keep on living after this, as expected it would be best to have as many Skills as I can.

Its going to be my first time fighting with orcs since I obtained Tenfold Experience Acquisition, Im very looking forward to this.

While thinking that, I located medicinal plants, and while defeating gathering sheep, I proceeded deeper and deeper than usual.

The trees then disappeared before I reached a steep slope, my view improved and I discovered the place.

The view spread before my eyes was.

My goodness, an orc settlement in such a place

What I came across was an orc settlement.

Just, how many are there?

Rather, I should have realised such a possibility earlier.

But, when I defeated orcs previously, I had lightly thought that they had probably accidentally lost their way.

My first battle, my first victory, the delight from such things had covered up the doubting feeling of Somethings not right.

Because the orcs have settled down here and built a settlement, thats why I came across orcs at such a place.

Its no use, this isnt possible by myself.

No matter how I think about this, this is a case to be reported to the guild!

While deciding to retreat in my heart, I scouted out the village by using Sight EnhancementModerate.

Briefly looking theres around 40 of them huh hm?

As I roughly counted, I noticed for some reason a human figure in the middle of the settlement.

Dokun!, throbbed my heart greatly.

T, thats a human female!

A human female in an orc settlement what it means naturally, even I know.

Not good, I dont have time! Even if I go the guild now she wont be saved I I can only do this.

I made my resolve.

Since I have decided I have to act quickly! I frantically searched for those guys who left the flock.

I found them! Though three of them are gathered together but if its three, then Ill somehow manage!

The orcs with different names, as expected they exist! Furthermore theres even one with high orc!!

As expected, they all have useful looking Skills.

If its like this I might be able to do it.

I immediately plundered all their Skills, used self-enhancement which can only be casted on myself and held a dagger in each hand.

Its all thanks to the Twin BladesExtreme I plundered.

I used Presence EraseModerate at the back and approached them in one go, and aimed at the troublesome looking high orcs heart and stabbed.

I then slashed at it diagonally from the shoulder, after that, I aimed at the windpipe of the assassin beside it and stabbed at it.

I didnt seem to have instantly killed it, but because it is a fatal wound, it feebly fell to its knees.

The warrior who finally realised that they were ambushed swung a stone axe of about my height downward.

However, thats too bad! Too slow!!!!!

Before the axe came falling towards me, I used Presence EraseModerate a second time and went behind it.

I then thrusted the dagger on my right hand towards its heart, and the one on my left towards its nape.

I then let go of my daggers, and drove a punch towards the assassins solar plexus, who still had a breath left, with all my strength.

The time for all this is about 40 seconds.

There doesnt seem to be any sign of being noticed from the surroundings.

Confirming that all three of them have died, while casting MagicSmall Recovery on my crushed fist, I put the orcs corpses into my Storage Bag.

Because if they discover the corpses, the remaining bunch will naturally make an uproar, so thought I.

I am really grateful to the alchemist onii-san.

Using MagicSmall Recovery once more, I hid under a cover.

At the moment I killed the high orc, when I realised my body had suddenly became lighter.

I had probably leveled up.

If I go at it like this I might somehow be able to manage.

While thinking such things, when I probed the situation I discovered a herd of five.

There doesnt seem to be any other individuals in the surroundings.

Convenient that the five are gathered together, since the sight is bad from the surroundings I decided to use the AoE MagicFire Maximum which I had plundered earlier.

I plundered all of their Skills, and pasted the unnecessary Skills and Abilities onto the ground.

I then used self enhancements, and threw AoE MagicFire Maximum into the middle of the gathering orcs.

While a terrifyingly thunderous roar spread, the flame magic impacted.

The orcs raged within the burning flames.

Aiming at the raging orcs, I fired the AoE MagicWind Maximum I had plundered.

Probably because of receiving the wind, the flames which were engulfing the orcs had grown larger, and the edge of the remaining wind chopped up the orcs.

When the flames had become smaller, the remainders were the corpses of the five orcs who were burnt to death.

After I used Fire AttributeResistance, I quickly put the orcs corpses into my Storage Bag, used Presence EraseModerate, and left the scene.

This might be bad as expected, they seem to have realised huh

For now, with this, Ive defeated eight orcs.

Theres probably around 30 left.

Now then, from now on is the critical moment.

Guild leader~, was it really okay?

The receptionist Mary started a conversation with the leader listlessly.

What is?

Even though you understand~, Im talking about the exclusive rookie-san Aisha-sans in charge of you know~, I understand the reason, but from the guilds essence, isnt it bad~?

Glancing over to me, Mary criticised the guild leader.

Thats true, if we think from the perspective of guild leader prioritising professional duties, you can say that there is absolutely nothing wrong with how he dealt with it this time.

But if were thinking of it as a Guild, the situation changes a little.

In the first place, the reason for prohibiting guild members killing each other is so that the guilds war potential doesnt drop.

Its a rule with an uninteresting reason so that the precious human resources arent lost.

From the point of view of the guilds nature, no matter what strong war potential must be possessed.

They want promising rookies to the point of desperation.

A rookie who can defeat a person who places top among C-rankers, properly speaking, he is a talent who will be warmly welcomed.

Personally firing such a talent.

That was what Mary had said to the guild leader.

Its something Ive decided, dont complain!

After a night has passed, the guild leader who has probably cooled off a little, even he understands who Mary wanted to say.

Therefore, he returned a reply containing irrepressible anger to Mary.

While seeing such a situation within the guild, my feeling has not completely cleared up.

Inside my head, were the various expressions Myne-kun had showed last night.

Starting with astonishment, to delight bewilderment determination and ending with gratitude

Even he probably had things he had wanted to say.

No, its impossible he doesnt.

But, at the end the smile he had shown, only a genuine gratitude can be felt from it.

As expected, I should have opposed more strongly then.

When I was crushed from regret, yes, it was at such a time.

When she appeared! At that time, the encounter between her and I, it was unexpected that that had greatly changed the fates of Myne-kun and me myself.

Sorry, I heard that a young man named Myne is in this guild

Though the persons face couldnt be seen because the mantle had a hood attached. she seems to be a woman.

Myne was erased from the guilds register yesterday but is it a designated request? There are other excellent people in this guild, you know

The receptionist ladyMil replied to the question of the woman.

No, sorry but it isnt a request. I have a personal business with him however, does the register erasure mean its not calm? Did he cause a problem?

Probably from hearing her questioned like that, immediately after Mil received the retort, precisely because of that, I knew that guild leader had frowned.(TLC:)

If its business with Myne-kun, I who was his exclusive should probably deal with this.

No, its nothing like that you know, well, there is of course a reason for that, but since the guilds matter, it would be hard to give you an answer

I see. Then it cant be helped huh by the way, you who just replied to me, wont you come here for a sec?

As I walked closer to her side, though thinking Why me?, she muttered By the way, Aisha, long time no see in a low voice.

Due to my name suddenly called out, as I reflexively focused on her face which was concealed under her hood

Y, Your Highness Sylphid Why, are you here

The person is the Augusta Kingdoms First Princess, Princess Knight SylphidAugusta.

Fufu, sorry but Im going incognito, so can you keep silent about my identity?

When I was still an adventurer, there were surely times when we had met through requests from the royal family.

However, to even remember my name.

Because of that, Aisha. I want to meet that young man Myne but where can I meet him?

Just like that girl from before said, he has been erased from the guild, honestly where he is right now is

Though Im baffled by the sudden appearance of royalty, I suddenly thought of a question.

I wonder why the Hime-sama is searching for Myne-kun?

Rather than that, I wonder why she knows about him?

Royalty calling a commoners name and coming to visit him is honestly abnormal.

Hmm, since he has registered in the guild once, that means you know where hes staying right? Wont you tell me where it is?

P, please wait a moment! Since Ill be guiding you Would it be okay for me to tell the guild leader? (TLN: Aisha speaks in humble form)

Oh? Im grateful if you can guide me, but it seems that you need to obtain approval even though youre slipping out, huh. If its with the guild leader well thats okay I guess

Receiving approval from Hime-sama, I hurriedly ran to where guild leader is.

Probably because my hurried appearance was amusing, Hime-sama giggled.

When I told guild leader about Hime-sama, he noticeably panicked, and I hurriedly stopped him from going to Hime-sama and waiting upon her.

Hime-sama is going incognito, please dont do anything that will expose her!

Receiving permission to go out from the confused guild leader, thinking for Hime-samas safety, continuing from last night, I quickly put on my arms and went to Hime-sama.

What, to put on armsif its a guard then I dont need any you know? You know my ability right?

Hime-sama is surely strong.

A knight to the point of having Princess Knight as a nickname. Naturally I know that she is even stronger than me.

However, even so, being a guard is another story.

In the first place, in the worst case that something happened to Hime-sama, I cannot even imagine what kind of rebuke the country will give.

No, it would be a serious matter if anything happened to Hime-sama. Please let me follow you like this

Hime-sama probably understood, as she shrugged her shoulders and walked towards the guilds exit.

On the way to Myne-kuns house, Hime-sama once again asked me the reason for Myne-kuns guild erasure.

Though it is a matter within the guild, if royalty asks, theres no choice but to answer.

I talked about the incidents that have happened since Myne-kun first came to the guild until yesterday.

Hmph As expected, theres no doubt that he has a special secret, huh. Its impossible for him to win against a C-rank adventurer with the Skills he has been bestowed with after all

Eh!? Hime-sama knows!? About his Skills!!

Surprised, I accidentally raised my voice.

Far from blaming me, a smile surfaced as she answered me.

Of course, even you know right? That the royal family receives reports about the Skills bestowed upon the new adults by the temple

Now that she said it, because of a certain reason it is necessary for royalty to know about the new adults Skills.

Haa!? Dont tell me, Hime-samas aim is!!!?

Fufufu, good guess. The reasons probably as you say, but its useless telling others you know? Since itll become an uproar

I see, thats why she came to see Myne-kun! Surely if such a thing were to come to light there will be an uproar in the world.

Hime-sama is fearlessly smiling, but if that were to be implemented.

Dont be that confused, Ive only come to see this to the end. Also Aisha did you know, that guy seems to be able to hunt orcs solo

Soloing orcs!? If that is true then I can understand him defeating Lyle.

What in the world are his Skills.

Probably knowing my question, Hime-sama continued.

You seem to be curious huh, about his Skills. Since he wants to hide it, I cant possibly say it. Its a secret for now

Mm mm mm, I was surrounded while I was stealing their skills huh.

Eei, since Ive got nothing to lose Ill hit them with Support MagicSleep.

Miraculously it wasnt resisted, and the orc in front of me fell asleep in a moment.

While cutting the abdomen of the sleeping orc open with my dagger, I cut across its side.

I who had just broke through the enclosure faced my back and fired another AoE MagicFire Maximum!

The explosive flame rolled up in the middle of the rocs, and in a blink of an eye, the group of orcs huddled together had been burnt up.

I already stole all their Skills.

I had absolutely no hesitation in exterminating them.

Using Presence EraseModerate, I left the place which was rolling in flames and temporarily took shelter.

Phew, I somehow escaped

I immediately started moving to escape, but an orc suddenly appeared on my way out and blocked my escape route.

I stole its skill, and at the place I defeated it I realised a large quantity of orcs was approaching me from behind.

For the time being I did not check what kind of Skills they had, continuously plundered, and the conclusion was Support MagicSleep just now at the place I was surrounded.

I wonder if I had just defeated more than 10 orcs?

If I add the ones I had defeated at first there are probably around 10 orcs left.

Though my exhaustion is quite extreme, if I slip in a little rest, I have a feeling I will somehow manage.

Somehow, Skills I dont quite understand have multiplied.

For now, the one Ill immediately use is Presence DetectModerate, seems like I can use this right now.

Hmm, the detection range does not seem to be wider than I thought.

There are three large presences about 500m to the north, and there is one large presence and two just a little big presence in the vicinity.

First I will defeat the one near me, since if I take too long the woman who was caught will be in danger.

Since itll take a considerable amount of time, I am terribly worried but.

While thinking such, I checked the situation in the direction of the nearby presences using Sight EnhancementModerate.

Eh? OrcGeneralreally?

OrcGeneral

Its an S-rank monster which can only be subjugated by several tens of high-rank adventurers, knights and the like.

And a general being here is proof that the higher existence OrcKing is also here.

They are called the kings bodyguards, since they will appear beside the king without fail.

Thinking about the size of the nearby general, there is a high chance that the large presences to the north I had checked just now using Presence DetectModerate are probably three OrcGenerals.

However, if its a general, if I organise my level and Skills, I think I will be able to defeat them some way or another.

The problem is the OrcKing.

As expected I have no choice but to question if I can defeat it.

If a general is an S-class then a king is a calamity-class existence.

Its to the extent that gathering the strongest class adventurers, knights and the like from all over the country, its impossible to defeat it if they dont tackle it with a war of attrition with hundreds of people.

The king being here, I regret my naive perspective.

However, I do not have the choice to leave the captured woman alone and escape.

After all, Ive act violently until here.

Theres no doubt that for the sake of hunting me the king has started mobilising.

At any rate Ill defeat as much as I can for now, and concentrate on raising my own strength.

Because its the only chance for she who was captured and me to survive.

Deciding as such, I will quickly get rid of the three orcs in front of me and turn them into a stepping stone for me to become stronger.

The longer I take, theres no doubt that the probability of me supplemented by the King will increases. (TLN: I have no idea.)

As usual I hurriedly stole their Skills, and cast as much self-enhancement Skills as I can.

From the battles until now, I know that I can defeat until high orcs if I fire AoE MagicFire Maximum with all my strength.

If so, theres only one thing to do.

Though I dont know if I can defeat the general with this, even if it isnt defeated I will probably be able to deal quite the damage.

After the damage has been dealt using magic, I will hunt it with all my strength.

I who decided as such, chose the timing when the three orcs are gathered together, and ensuring the timing in one moment, I released magic at full strength.

Zugagagan!

A thunderous roar even louder than from before resounded, while swallowing up the surrounding buildings, it directly hit the orcs.

As I had planned, the two orcs let out a scream and crumbled down to the ground.

Then, this is the bad part of what I had planned, the general, injured with large burns all over its body, let out a war cry and charged towards me.

Without panicking at its momentum, as I hit it with Support MagicSpeed Reduction, the generals movements became noticeably slower.

Probably because my level and my Skills level had increased, the accuracy rose.

Not passing up the moment its movements had dulled, I went around to its back using Presence EraseModerate, I loaded all my strength and slashed at its back.

As expected from a general, even though I was using a steel dagger, I wasnt able to cut it smoothly.

Maybe because of pain or anger, it let out an even fiercer roar, I snuck into the bosom of the general who was swinging its arms violently, and I struck it using the dagger martial arts, Shark Glow.

With the Skills Strong ArmExtreme + Arm StrengthExtreme which I had just took from it attached onto the martial arts, its power became absurd, and the general was literally cut up right in half.

Phew, I did it

Confirming that its life had stopped, I quickly stored the general which has become a corpse.

Opposite to the direction of the opponents, the generals who are coming from the north, in other words, I escaped towards the south.

However, in a hurry, it was unwise of me not to use Presence EraseModerate andPresence DetectModerate.

I clashed with a group of three ordinary orcs and one high orc.

This, this situation is quite bad!!

The three to the north which I consider as OrcGenerals are coming here right now.

If this goes on I will be pincer attacked.

In that one moment I was agitated, there was one who could use magic among the high orcs.

What the high orc had fired, was probably AoE MagicFire Maximum

Though I flusteredly used Fire AttributeResistance,I received a direct hit.

Guuu

At the excess heat and pain, I unintentionally let out a groan.

Blood then gushed out from my whole body, I involuntarily staggered and fell to my knees.

The blood flowing out from my forehead stole the sight from my lef eye.

If the Fire AttributeResistance I had casted just now did not reduced, perhaps I would have died.

The orcs who saw me falling to my knees, disgustingly gossiped, a smile yes, it was probably a smile that surfaced, it raised the stone axe it was holding high up, and put an end to me.

Myne-kun!!!!! Dont give up!!!!!!!

The three white paths directly hit the orcs who had just wanted to end me.

Unable to completely receive the impact, the orcs stumbled a few steps back.

As I looked at the direction of the voice there stood Aisha-san who I was indebted to in the guild, with a dignified posture with a bow.

When I noticed that I looked back, I saw that she had started nocking the next arrow in order to pursue the orcs.

Then, it seems that there was a female knight who I have never seen before behind Aisha-san.

Why? Why is Aisha-san here?

Who, is that female knight?

Ah, its no use, Aisha-san theres an OrcKing here.

Dont worry about me, quickly run!

This place is a hopeless battlefront, if a beautiful person like Aisha-san is here theyll aim at her first.

Aisha-san being sexually assaulted by orcs, definitely I will definitely not accept that!!!!

Aisha-san, its no use, run!!

I shouted towards Aisha-san from the bottom of my heart.

However, probably she heard it, or probably she didnt hear it, Aisha-san continued shooting.

One shot, two shots, three shots.

The arrows who were continuously fired by Aisha-san flew towards the orcs with unparalleled accuracy.

As expected of a former B-rank adventurer, it seemed to have accurately delivered damage to the orcs.

Even though high orcs arent like orcs, damage was reliably delievered.

Theres no choice but to quickly defeat this guys to let Aisha-san-tachi escape.

Get a hold of yourself! Myne!!

Collecting my thoughts, I quickly plundered their Skills, and casted Support MagicGradual Restoration Large (Stamina) on myself.

I was still staggering a little, but I firmly stood up, and grasped my daggers on both hands.

I overlapped Leg EnhancementSmallSwift Feet (Small)Body EnhancementSmallBody EnhancementLarge, and closed in on the orcs in one go.

Differnet from the situation when I had bumped into them just now, since I properly casted enhancements, if Im not careless then I can defeat them without problems.

Then as expected, the four orcs quickly cut down towards me.

However, I still cannot be careless.

Since the OrcGenerals who are approaching from the north will immediately be here.

Confirming that Ive defeated them, Aisha-san and the knight-san beside her ran towards me.

Myne-kun! Are you alright!? Wait a while, Ill immediately heal you!!

Im alright, I can do that myself Leaving that aside, the two of you please quickly run away from here. Three OrcGenerals will soon come here

Hearing about OrcGenerals, the female knight-san beside her rose an even louder voice in surprise than Aisha-san.

W, wait!? Did you say OrcGeneral? Whys an S-rank monster in such a place!?

I dont know the reason, and I dont have time to think, quickly run away!! Besides the thing about the generals being here

I pointed towards the opposite direction of the generals coming here, and urged them to run.

An OrcGeneral being here I see!? That also means theres an OrcKing here!!!?

At the moment the female knight shouted, even though they are not their aim, a roar which seemed like it reverberated through the whole orc settlement could be heard.

Theres no doubt, its them.

A response suddenly appeared in my Presence DetectModerate

Compared to the generals, it was a tremendously larger presence.

No doubt, its an OrcKing.

Finally its existence was exposed, no matter what it takes I have to defeat the three generals before it appears here.

The both of you hurry up quickly run away from here! Quickly!!!!

However, my earnest complaint wasnotin time it was too late.

Why is the King here first!!! Damn it!!!!
