Re:Zero - Jobless Reincarnation: Succubus Sword God? I don't recognize it!

Mama Lan is very serious about teaching.

And now, Sylphy has read this book over and over again as an extracurricular reading material on magic, and she likes it very much.

"That's what my father said a few days ago. I didn't ask for details, but he didn't look very well."

Alan saw that some of her shoulder-length emerald green hair was bunched up by the plush collar. He tucked her collar in and then held his chin with his hand and frowned as he began to think.

"The original novel seems to mention such a plot, but it should be when Rudy left Buena Village as a tutor. I remember the specific reason for the monsters to become overactive was..."

Thinking of this, Alan's face darkened for a moment.

'The summoning magic of the Great Transfer caused the magic power of the entire Fitoya territory to fluctuate too much, which made the monsters active. But I remember that the time when the monsters were in turmoil should be during the tutoring period, not now? Why is this true? '

Sylphy's eyes followed the hand that Alan extended and then took away. She held her chin with her hand and looked at Alan's face quietly. Her childish expression actually showed a hint of gentleness that was inconsistent with her age.

Just as Rudy said in the letter, she has become a lot quieter in this year. In fact, the main reason is that Alan himself is not a person who likes to chatter. During the period of character formation when children are most easily influenced by others, after spending a long time with Alan, Sylphy naturally began to imitate him subconsciously.

Growing children always like to imitate the people they 'admire' and 'desire to be'.

As for whether Allen is the former or the latter in her heart.

Who can know this?

At this time, Rudy, who was looking at the magic book on the side, looked up at Alan's expression with a look of reminiscence.

"When Uncle Roltz came to ask for help, I heard their conversation. He said that because of the accident with Uncle Roltz last year, the villagers were afraid of the monster elimination. My father and the rescuer Alan Winter were unable to participate in the monster elimination. They didn't even dare to go too deep into the forest. As a result, even though the net was pushed very deep last year, they were not able to hunt many monsters."

Hearing this, Alan looked at Rudy who was blinking.

'The follow-up to the extramarital affair led to Paul staying at home for a whole winter to take care of two pregnant women. So it seems that this so-called Warcraft wave is another butterfly effect caused by my behavior unintentionally, but this time it shouldn't have much impact, right?'

Senis, who was coaxing the child nearby, looked a little embarrassed and said with guilt.

"If I had known, I shouldn't have asked him to stay home and take care of us as promised last year. This delayed the clearing of monsters, which is a big deal."

Alan raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and his eyes passed over his bangs and glanced at Rudy meaningfully.

The latter has also grown a lot taller, but his face has not changed much, except from a childish boy's face to a slightly mature teenager's face. After more than a year of getting along with each other, he has already understood what Alan's usual expressions mean. He waved his hand implicitly, indicating that even if Alan didn't urge him, he would take action.

He stood up from the table, walked to Senis, made a face at Noren and spoke casually.

"Luai~ Clearing out monsters is a big deal in the village, and taking care of pregnant women is a big deal for the Greyrat family, isn't it?"

Senis was stunned for a moment, then she burst into laughter, reached out her hand, touched Rudy's head lovingly, and hugged him in her arms.

Alan adjusted his glasses, raised his hand and gave Rudy a thumbs-up at the side of the table where Senice couldn't see. The latter showed an expression that it was a trivial matter and winked at the former.

This scene was reflected in Sylphy's reddish-brown pupils. She blinked, first looking at Senis who was touching Rudy's hair, then raised her eyes to look at Lilia not far away.

The latter did not look at Rudy, but just teased Aisha in the cradle and looked at Alan tenderly.

Seeing this, Sylphy blinked her eyelashes rapidly, revealing a very restrained smile of satisfaction, and lowered her head to continue reading the book on the table.

at this time.

Boom boom boom!

There was a knock on the door, quite hurriedly.

The four people in the room turned their heads and looked at the door. Lilia stood up and opened the door.

The person coming in the snowstorm was a blond elf.

Sylphy's father - Lorz.

A thick layer of snow had accumulated on the shoulders of his coat. He first nodded apologetically to Lilia, then waved and greeted Senis. Under Lilia's surprised gaze, he closed the door slightly, leaving only a gap the size of a human face to block the wind, snow and cold wind.

There was no intention of stepping into the door at all.

"Father."

Sylphy thought that he was going to take her home. She quickly glanced at Alan and Rudy behind her, closed the monster collection in her hand, jumped off the stool, trotted to the door and whispered.

"Father, it's just past noon. Do you want to go home early today?"

Roltz looked at Sylphy's long emerald green hair and sighed. Just over a year ago, Sylphy often asked his wife to cut her hair short. Since Alan came, this request has never appeared again. Sylphy even had a smile on her face all day long.

Apart from the fact that his smiling face resembles Alan, there is nothing else wrong with him.

Roltz nodded, glanced at Alan who was about to come over and extend his hand to greet him, and smiled.

"Eren is young, but he is very reliable in every aspect."

"Luffy, I'm not here to see you, I'm here to see Alan. There's a shortage of manpower in the forest, and Lord Paul asked me to ask Alan to help. So, please lend him to me for the next few days, and I'll return it to you later."

Sylphy's face was gentle when she heard her father's first few words, but when she heard the last sentence, her eyes suddenly widened, and she hurriedly raised her hands in front of Luo Erz in panic, waving them together, as if blocking his sight. Luo Erz grabbed Sylphy's hand, and looked at Sylphy, who suddenly panicked and returned to her last year's appearance, with a funny look.

At this time, Allen had already walked to the door with a knife in his hand, followed by Rudy.

".Sorry to bother you, Alan."

Alan smiled nonchalantly.

"It should."

Roltz nodded, squatted down and hugged Sylphy, who realized that Alan had walked to her side and her hands were frozen in the air.

"Luffy, please ask Rudy to take you back today. We should spend the night in the forest."

"It's okay. Let Sylphy and Rudy come along. If we're dealing with a wave of monsters, a magician's AOE, uh, large-scale magic will probably be faster than us killing them one by one with swords and bows, right?"

As Allen spoke, he casually touched Sylphy's head and glanced at Rudy who had a frightened expression behind him.

'Isn't it unreasonable to not have PVE in the map? And Sylphy is obviously very interested in new things. She reads the monster book every day. She should be very interested in monsters. It's not a bad opportunity to take them to see the world. One of them is a senior magician and the other is a saint-level magician. Now that they have experience, they will surely have a little more safety after the big transfer, especially the scene where Sylphy landed. It was a bit too thrilling.'

Sylphy came out of her daze when she heard this. She lowered her head and first glanced at the "storybook" in her arms, then looked up at Alan, only to find that the latter blinked at her.

Rudy scratched his head.

"Um, is it really okay for Sylphy and I to go? There's a monster tide there. It's okay to listen to the teacher, but isn't it a bit reckless to really face it? And we have to spend the night outside. Although I think it's nice to stay with you guys at night, it feels like the days when the teacher comes back, but it won't be very convenient, ouch! Sylphy, why are you stepping on me?"

"I'm sorry Rudy, my feet were numb and I wanted to move them around, but I accidentally stepped on you."

"Huh? But I'm far away from your legs. How can you step on my feet by stomping your feet in place? Ouch!"

".Look, you can step on it."

"??"

Surprised, Roltz didn't notice the two little ones' movements. He looked at Alan, who was only half a head shorter than him and didn't look like he was joking at all. He suddenly realized that this "reliable person" he should have come to for help was also a "child" who was only four years older than Sylphy and Rudy, and also had a reckless and willful side.

"It's true that Rudy and Sylphy are magicians, and Rudy's magic talent has been verified in many ways, but can they really handle this kind of situation at their age? Even if I let them go, Madam Senis will be worried, right?"

Just as he was about to reject Allen's rash proposal, he heard Allen continue.

"Sylphy and Rudy should be more threatening to monsters than many adults in the village. One of them is a high-level magician, and Rudy has already reached the Saint level. Some magicians in the adventurer teams are not necessarily better than them. Wouldn't it be good to bring them over to see what's going on? A fledgling that stays in a greenhouse won't grow up, right? Uncle Loltz?"

Roltz pursed his lips twice, and looked past Alan to see Senis in the house. She was a former adventurer, so her words must be more convincing than his own.

But who would have thought that although Senis also showed a surprised expression, she agreed with Alan's words about "fledgling growth" and recognized his strength. She thought of her experience of being cheated after running away from home. After a little hesitation, she nodded and agreed without much hesitation.

"I think it's possible. Paul has always said something similar to me before, but I didn't agree to it. Now that I think about it, Rudy is just a child, but he is indeed more capable than many magicians in the adventurer team. He just lacks some experience. This opportunity is really good. Although Rudy is smart, he is still a little lacking in dealing with people compared to Alan."

Alan: ???

Rudy: ?????

"This"

"Besides, if they are with Alan, I don't need to worry about their safety. Alan's ability is enough to serve as the main swordsman in the S-level adventurer team. Let me think about it, he almost takes into account Paul's adaptability and Gileno's sharpness."

Rudy: ?????

Alan shook his head, recovering from the strange praise from the "other people's" child in the "job less" version. He glanced at Senis's face with her chin resting on her hand as she lost in memories, then turned to look at the stunned Roltz, swinging the hilt of the knife in his hand at the crack of the door in front of him.

As the scabbard slowly swept through the air, the snowflakes that poured into the house were like snow dancing being swept up by the wind from his sword, and then returned along the gaps in Roltz's body and merged into the wind and snow outside.

This action reminded Roltz subconsciously of the scene last winter.

At that time, it was the sword light that this young man squeezed out of the air that saved him from the brink of death.

He hesitated for a moment, looked at Sylphy who was eager to try, and although he still felt something was wrong, he nodded.

"Alright."

Finally, with Ceness and Lilia watching them off, Allen, Rudy, and Sylphy followed Lortz into the snowstorm, carrying the extra bread they had made at home over the past few days.

-

"Sir Knight! The monsters are attacking the protective net!"

A villager with a rough face kept inserting the knife in his hand through the gaps in the hard vine net, and on the other side of the net were densely packed monsters.

The blade is inserted and then pulled out.

There was a stream of steaming blood, gushing out all around like a bursting faucet, and the monster's flesh and fur were scattered all over the ground, and the surrounding snow on the ground had been dyed red by the blood.

At the other end of the net, forest snakes and giant gnats were jumping and falling from the sea of ​​blood, and the snow was making a popping sound. But at the moment they jumped out, if you look closely, you can find that many snakes and rats were biting each other, and only a small number of them realized that there was more delicious "food" nearby and tried to attack the villagers.

Most of them were biting and fighting each other, but the battle between the monsters just happened to affect the protective net.

Even so, the rattan net still made a teeth-grinding creaking sound, as if it would break in the next second.

There are too many monsters.

At first glance, the pile in front of this villager looked like more than ten monsters mixed together.

Seeing that the net seemed unable to hold, the villager dropped the knife in his hand, fished out a fork from the snow next to him and tried to hold up the net.

But at this moment, the snow pile in front of him suddenly rose and fell, and then exploded in front of him!

A rabbit-shaped monster with iron spikes all over its body, almost half the size of a human, quickly jumped out of the snow! It seemed that it had seen the villagers throwing knives, and took this opportunity to cross the net and attack the human it had been coveting for a long time.

In panic, the villagers subconsciously wanted to use forks to resist.

The next moment, violent wind howled in the snow, and a figure rushed into his field of vision, tearing the monster in front of him and the snow pile together, plowing a deep gully on the ground.

The wind pressure hit the monster's limbs and internal organs like rain, and the villager was soaked from head to toe. He looked at Paul who arrived in time, and his legs went weak and he sat on the ground.

Paul swung his knife and threw all his limbs aside, looking gloomily at the exposed ground under the snow.

The broken Saw-Thorn Rabbit head fell into the ravine, and on both sides of the ravine, densely packed dark monster holes were exposed to the air.

A few giant rats poked their heads out of the hole and tried to bite the rabbit's head, but were immediately cut into pieces by Paul's sword.

"Damn it! Why are there so many this year? The ground is full of holes made by monsters."

Paul reached out and pulled up the villager beside him, then looked around.
