overturned wagon and golem horse.
Fortunately it can still move after I check it with the Old Lady.

「Ah! Minchi!」

The boy shouted as he looked up and saw a pig coming out of the grass, squealing.
It seemed to have returned to its owner.
A few more pigs trotted over.
We waited for a while after that, but it seems that this is everyone.

「It’s over.
Let’s go home」

The old man told the reluctant boy and headed to their village, accompanied by the Old Lady.

「I will definitely avenge them!」

When we parted, I promised the boy that I would defeat the demon beasts.
After that, I went back to the place where the pig was kidnapped and headed north along the street again.
Finally, I found the landmark that the herbivore mechanic had mentioned.

(That rocky mountain huh.
Certainly, there’s something there)

I ducked behind a giant rock and saw through the telescope of the Old Lady’s eyes.
As I poured magic power into her eyes, a magic circle unfolded in front of one of her eyes.
Then it began to rotate slowly.

(…Birds.
Moreover, parent and child huh)

Two birds are sticking their heads into the belly of a pig lying on the top.
It seems they are the demon beasts that had attacked the wagon.
The one watching behind them was probably the parent.
They were many times larger than the two that were eating.
Looking at the size comparison with the pigs, they are probably bigger than a Knight when they spread their wings.

(Let’s wait until it’s a bit dark and eliminate them in one blow)

It’s hard to shoot down a flying bird with my skills.
If I wanted to shoot them, I must aim at them while they are standing still, like now.
The only reason I didn’t shoot them right away was because there was a possibility that there might be others.

(Even though they are demon beasts, they are still birds.
So I’m sure they will go back to their nest at night)

For now, there’s no doubt that that’s their nest.
I’d like to wipe them all in one fell swoop if I could.

(Bird-types are always aims at your eyes after all)

I groaned while holding my own eyes with one hand.
Me and the Old Lady are in sync, which means we share the same pain perception, and just thinking about it is terrifying.
I could try to barrage them with anti-aircraft fire, but I want to avoid getting attacked by entire herds.

(Now then)

It was almost dusk, and the sun would be going down before too long.
I noticed there’s a movement on their nest when I looked at it.
One by one, the parent bird and the young bird returned.

(It was right to wait for them)

I looked at the sky, but didn’t spot any other birds in the sky.
The sun had already disappeared over the western horizon, and it’s gradually getting darker.
Old Lady propped herself up on the giant rock and aimed the nest with the rifle.

(Pouring in D-rank magic in full power, without converging it to magic missiles)

This is the maximum power that the current Old Lady can unleash.
It has a track record of slaughtering even the A-class Knights of the Empire with a single blow.
But I won’t compress it as much as I did then.
I choose to make the magic missile wider, even though it will reduce the firepower.
There are multiple opponents.
So I’m going to widen the diameter and wipe them out with a single blow.

(Flying creatures should have lower defense)

If an airplane had armor that was as thick as a tank, then the tank would have no place in a battlefield anymore.
The giant turtle and heavy lancers should’ve been more durable than bird type demon beasts like them.

(Then this should work)

The cane rifle trembles with a whirring sound.
It sounds like when a circuit breaker is turned on and a large current flows into heavy electrical equipment.
Not long after, the fallen leaves and broken twigs around the Old Lady began to float in the air.

(Target confirmed)

A thin bolt of lightning appeared around the rifle, but they still haven’t noticed me yet.

(Fire!)

It turned out as I expected, the bird-type demon beasts couldn’t withstand the attack.
What I saw at the time of impact was the scene of an overripe persimmon slammed into the ground.
Now there was nothing, even the pigs, remaining on the rock.

(Let’s wait here until morning, just in case.
If by that time none of them shows up anymore, then it’s mission completed)

I leaned back and exhaled heavily.
After a while, let’s bake the bacon we got from the village and have it for dinner.
I spun my neck and shoulders as I thought about this.
