A forest on the border to the west when viewed from the city of Raja.
Along the edge, a half-day walk south, is a large wetland.
"The other thing to watch out for is the marsh environment. In rare cases, there are places like bottomless swamps."
"Wow... that's troublesome. Is there a way to tell?"
"The color of the ground is slightly darker than the surroundings. For example... like that place."
That said, Nino-san pointed to a place about 15 meters in front of us.
If you look closely, you can see that the color of the ground is darker in the oval area.
"Look at that. That's it!"
Picking up a fallen tree branch, Nino-san threw it like a dart.
The branch with a beautiful parabola pierces the center of the darkened ground.
Then, a branch about the length of a human arm was swallowed in a blink of an eye.
I think it took less than ten seconds before the tip of the branch disappeared.
It may have been a heavy branch that sucked water, but it was ridiculously fast.
If I had stepped in there... it would be a horrifying to imagine that.
"Did you understand the fear of bottomless swamps?"
"Yes. Be careful of your feet when fighting."
"On the contrary, you can use it well to drop prey."
Along the edge, a half-day walk south, is a large wetland.
Pantanel Marsh.
It's a spooky land with very high humidity and white fog even in the daytime.
There are many powerful species of monsters that inhabit, and it seems that only veteran adventurers are able to visit this place.
"... It's hot and humid."
I stop and wipe off the sweat on my forehead.
The moist air seems to cling to my body.
The footing is also bad, so even just walking is quite hard.
"Let's take a break. The place the Rock Titus are is a little further away."
"Have you ever fought a Rock Titus before?"
"Well, it was a request from Berg's father before."
"Heh~..."

"Well, it was a request from Berg's father before."
"Heh~..."
That's encouraging.
However, since it's a request that only I accepted, so I won't rely too much on Rouga-san.
I have to keep it to the extent that I get help from him only as a companion.
"Rock Titus is, in essence, a big and stupid turtle. If you're careful about their bite, it's unlikely that Sieg will lose to them."
"Bite?"
"Yeah. Stretching the neck and biting at once. Their biting power is very strong. You can eat even such a stupid rock!"
That said, Rouga-san, spreads his hands wide.
If you get such an attack, even the human body will not exist.
When I swallow my spit in suprise, this time Nino-san tells me.

"Did you understand the fear of bottomless swamps?"
"Yes. Be careful of your feet when fighting."
"On the contrary, you can use it well to drop prey."
Nino-san adds that she doesn't recommend it very much because there is a risk of falling.
If you have a hard time, you shouldn't use it if you don't have the leeway to do it.
At worst, there is also the danger of being pushed by the enemy.
"Well, if it's Sieg, you can win in a straightforward manner. You also have that sword."
"Yes. In this case, I think I can even cut the shell of Rock Titus."

"Yes. In this case, I think I can even cut the shell of Rock Titus."
The black sword borrowed from Berg-san.
Made of tough iron meteorite, this sword with excellent sharpness will can easily cut through the hard shell.
Rather, it seems to be difficult to handle because it is a weapon that is too sharp.
When I put it in the scabbard, I'm afraid that my fingers will be cut off.
"No, what do you mean you can even cut the shell..."
"If you have a sword this sharp, can't you do it?"
"You can't do it!"

"If you have a sword this sharp, can't you do it?"
"You can't do it!"
Rouga-san shakes his head.
Is it something to deny so strongly?
My neesan said, "If you're a swordsman, it's only natural for a sword to cut through iron ."
Was it a special standard after all...?
"It's about time to go."
"Oh, that's right."
We start walking again for a while.
Beyond the white fog, I saw a huge black shadow.
It's just like a mountain, but it's moving slowly.
No doubt, it's a Rock Titus.
Moreover, there are not only one but multiple.
"It's there."
"Oh, there are more than I expected."
"I'll lure one by one in with a projectile. Rouga, please support me."
"Okay, while we're attracting, that's when Sieg slashes, right?"

"Okay, while we're attracting, that's when Sieg slashes, right?"
"Yes."
Nino-san nods.
I see, the strategy doesn't seem to be a problem.
I wonder if I should hit the enemy who have been lured in as powerfully as possible.
"Then, let's go!"
Nino-san nods.

"Then, let's go!"
Taking out a shuriken from her pocket she threw it.
The blade of the shuriken rotated violently and drew a sharp curve like a pendulum or something.
Then, it is vigorously absorbed by the head of Rock Titus.
"Guohhh!"

"Guohhh!"
Rock Titus raised a voice that was not like a turtle.
The giant began to move at a speed that was not like a turtle.
--Zushin!
Every time Rock Titus steps like an elephant, the ground trembles.
Looking back, it's still a ridiculous size.
It looks like a small building.
"Here, it's here! Come on!"
The giant began to move at a speed that was not like a turtle.

"Here, it's here! Come on!"
Rouga-san holds a shield and guides the enemy's attention to himself.
The next moment, Rock Titus' neck stretched with great anger.
A crocodile-like face and huge fangs scoop towards Rouga-san's shield.
So that's the bite attack, it's definitely filled with a great amount of power!
If you get hit by it directly, even Rouga-san, who is holding a large shield, will not go unscathed.
"Toriya~!"
Rock Titus' stretched neck.
There was a short time before it returned.
I unsheathened the black sword and slashed at the turtle's neck.
--Zuban!
The sword cut through it very easily.
Blue body fluids splatter, and his slashed head dances in the air.
"Okay, the first one!"
When I turned around, the second one was already approaching.
Not only that, but the third and fourth bodies are starting to move.
Apparently, they were the first to recognize our existence as a threat to the flock.
The reaction is much faster than I expected.
This is a little... unexpected.
"Oi, Oi! It's the first time I've come across this many!"
"Wild monsters instinctively feel the strength of their enemies. Maybe Sieg was too strong."
"Is it my fault!?"
"Hahaha, isn't it an honor to be recognized as strong! In this case, we'll do them all together!"
At the same time as issuing the command, Rouga-san came out in front to protect us.
This is how the turbulent battle began.
