*****The shallow layer of the lost forest outside the capital of Theocracy and the camping ground of Zhang Youji’s classroom****
At about 8 o'clock that night, as time passed and the subtle one-for-one incident ended, except for Binghua and Nasi who had not yet reunited, and Cuiyin, who was unlucky enough to be left behind with Nasi. Apart from them, Zhang Youji and his party are now in a state of gathering. They have just set the tableware and cooked dinner. Everyone entered the dinner time happily, although a few of them were not in a good mood.
[Everyone, dinner is ready. Although there were many accidents today, to be precise, unexpected situations surrounding Zhang Youji, we are finally settled down now. 】
[Well, one after another, it has reached the point where people don’t know what to say. 】
[The only thing to be thankful for is that fortunately, it did not affect our progress in collecting ingredients, or simply catching fish, and exploring the surrounding area. 】
Everyone was sitting in front of a long table made of earth magic. Looking at the grilled fish that had been placed on the table and caught from the lake, Tyrus from the student group took the lead and said something with some feelings. After some expressions before the meal, Werther and Tantan felt very tired and recalled the troublesome things related to Zhang Youji while talking.
To put it simply, let’s not talk about Zhang Youji’s perspective. The perspective of the student group such as Cuiyuan and others can’t help but be forced to help find people because people on Zhang Youji’s side are getting lost one after another. Feel.
Not to mention Qing and the Mermaid Knight at the beginning, and then there was Suzu who was looking for Majin-chan, and then there was the Mermaid Knight who had been swimming in the small flowing lake outside the camp. After looking at her, Qing Yi was careless and agreed to her diving. It disappeared, and then Qing, who realized something was wrong, dived down to look for fish, and unexpectedly found an underwater cave at the bottom of the lake, connected to an unknown place.
As a result, after finding a fish, a goblin became curious and explored the underwater cave together. Zhang Youji was faced with the headache of finding someone. The student group who learned about the situation also We had to allocate people to help, or to be precise, to help prevent people from getting lost any more. Wei Miao took shifts as a nanny, and the burden of finding people fell on Mei Gugu's shoulders.
[Fortunately, there are edible fish in this lake, otherwise I would have to eat wild fruits for dinner today. 】
[The places with abundant fruits in the surrounding areas have been occupied by others first. If you want wild fruits, you have to compete with other student teams. When I explored the surrounding areas in the afternoon, I found that many students were grabbing and setting up camps in places with abundant fruits. We There were also many students passing by here, but those people gave up one after another after discovering the conspicuous skeleton on the watchtower. 】
[After all, the summoned beasts following Zhang Youji are all students from other classrooms. The focus is on recording. For them, meeting Zhang Youji is equivalent to being eliminated directly. Even the adventurers accompanying them are advising They don't want to get too close to us, and thanks to this, the area around our camp is empty. 】
[Speaking of which, Zhang Youji’s summoned beasts haven’t arrived yet? I heard she's the Spider Queen? 】
Everyone in the student group couldn't help but recall together some things that made me tired just thinking about them. Cuiyuan took the lead in preparing to change the atmosphere and brought up the topic of food. After a few words from Shuangyue, Tika and Tima, The topic at the scene changed to the people on their side who had not yet met, causing everyone's attention to focus on Zhang Youji, who was silently eating grilled fish.
[To be precise, not only my summoned beasts, but also the adventurers in charge of our classroom, Cuiyuan’s sister Cuiyin, will also come to join us later tonight. By the way, where are the two chuunibyou, Harut and Parallana? 】
[Those two people are talking nonsense on the watchtower right now. They seem to regard the watchtower as a secret base and plan to live there. 】
[Uh, forget it, anyway, Suzu, Kiyoshi, and Mei Gugu are on duty, so there should be no problem in terms of security, so let’s just let those two guys make trouble. 】
[But speaking of summoned beasts, Sir Zhang Youji, why did you choose to bring the Spider Queen? 】
When Zhang Youji noticed that the topic was about him and was a little embarrassed because of the series of troubles today, he did not look into the eyes of his classmates and wanted to move the topic elsewhere. Afterwards, after giving a proper reply, Xing Mang was a little curious about why he brought the very conspicuous Spider Queen here even though he clearly didn't like being in the spotlight, and some big-headed people talked about the answer.
[Rather than choosing it, it is better to say that it was arranged for me by others. Forget it, Xingmang, just think that between attracting attention and Nas's ability is more suitable for camping, I chose Nas. 】
[Speaking of which, when I went to the Elf Kingdom before, my camping base was made by your Spider Queen. Although the memories at that time were not very good for Majin-chan. 】
[Hmm, you claim to be not pretending at all now. Forget it. At that time, you were just acting on your own. Wait a minute. Let’s put this aside for now. I remember you said before that you felt a familiar breath. Went to say hello? Rather than recalling the past, let’s talk about what happened. 】
Zhang Youji turned to look at Ling and the others at another table not far away. After finishing his question about Xingmang, Demon Sauce sitting next to him half-opened his eyes and talked about meeting Zhang Youji for the first time. Although Zhang Youji feels a little nostalgic about some things at that time, but compared to this, Zhang Youji suddenly thought of some important points, so he directly changed the topic and waited for Demon-chan who unexpectedly thought about it. answer.
[···It’s really not an important thing. It doesn’t matter if you let your classmates know. However, if possible, Maishin-chan still hopes that you won’t talk about it everywhere. Also, claiming to be disguised or something, for your classmates, kid. It's not necessary, since it should have been more or less exposed already. In the absence of other people, Demon-chan doesn't have to worry about it. 】
【Why? Uh, Zhang Youji, why don't we avoid it and talk to Mr. Demon-chan alone? 】
[It’s not necessary. I’m just passing by. It’s really no problem for Majin-chan to tell you. In this lost forest, there is a current world tree. The wedge used to observe the nearby situation. I happened to feel that the tree with the wedge has The consciousness of World Tree was coming, so I went to say hello and chatted casually for a while, but I won’t talk about the content of the conversation and Majin-chan. You kid, put it aside for now, Majin-chan can’t bear to drag the cute students into it. 】
[No, don’t always put me aside. I don’t want to be dragged into unexpected troubles. 】
When Demon Sauce finished thinking about certain premises, Cuiyuan immediately felt bad and asked Zhang Youji for his opinion. However, before Zhang Youji could reply, Demon Sauce directly mentioned some very important things. Subtle things blurted out. Although Zhang Youji didn't have much reaction to this, his classmates couldn't help but feel a little confused because of the World Tree that appeared in the topic.
[Alas, some words that are beyond human common sense always fly by. Although he himself is not conscious of it, for us students, it is really too much. Should we say that we are lucky or unlucky to know Zhang Youji. 】
[Uh, what Demon-chan said just now shouldn’t be beyond human common sense, right? 】
[Zhang Youji, although you don’t think it’s anything, what happened just now, eh? water? 】
Just after Tyrus expressed her feelings in distress, Zhang Youji, who often came into contact with some beings that were beyond common sense for humans in this other world, had a somewhat stuck reaction. , let Cuiyuan say something to correct his point of view, but in the middle of the sentence, Cuiyuan's words ended because of the water droplets that suddenly fell on his head.
【water? Uh, isn't it going to rain? Having said that, it does feel a little darker than usual? 】
[It’s not going to rain, but it’s already raining. Fortunately, it’s not too heavy now. You guys, please clear the table quickly while the rain isn’t heavy yet. 】
[Hmm, it happened to rain while eating. What should I say today? It’s so subtle. Forget it, Cuiyuan, you guys just go back to the tent first. Take back what you haven’t finished eating. Put away the tableware and Suzu and the others can just clean up the campfire in the cooking area and take it as a small compensation for today's troubles. 】
[Understood, let’s go back to the tent first. 】
[Demon-chan, let’s go together too. After all, the kid has been in trouble today, and Demon-chan has forgotten to set up a tent, so he can only make a temporary nest there. 】
[Then I'm really sorry. Although I don't want to be said like that by you, the good-for-nothing devil who is also one of the problems. Speaking of which, isn't it starting to rain a little harder? By the way, did I not mention it when discussing what to do if we get lost in the future? 】
After Zhang Youji looked at the sky in confusion because of Cuiyuan's words, Demon-chan also looked at the sky, which was darker than the ordinary night. While the small raindrops fell, 's responded.
Although Zhang Youji's feelings about this were very subtle, as a subtle apology to his classmates today, he took over some of the aftermath work. While the students and Demon-chan were walking towards the tent area, he and Demon-chan During the bickering, Zhang Youji suddenly noticed that he seemed to have forgotten something crucial.
