Journey of an Exiled Middle-Aged Adventurer Becoming a Hero [Chapter 9]

Test of courage

By giving the signal, both girls extended their hands forward.

A faint light begins to gather and gradually transforms into weapons.

Elisa acquires a staff and Yui a bow and arrows.

Both smile mischievously and prepare for combat.

“Elisa, I need a physical boost!”

“Understood! Activating the reinforcement!”

A magical halo appears under Elisa’s feet as the light gathers around Yui.

It’s an effective combination.

One focuses on reinforcement, the other on attack.

Each plays their role perfectly.

Is analyzing the situation so quickly a sign of age?

Like watching a sports game, analyzing this situation is truly exciting.

The five orcs rush towards them, but the girls show no signs of nervousness.

Calmly, Yui draws her bow.

“I hope this hits…”

With a whisper, the arrow is launched.

Apparently, the arrow also has the attack reinforcement.

I still don’t sense Elisa’s magical energy.

So Yui seems to have applied the reinforcement individually to the arrow.

“I’m starting to doubt that they are both rank C…”

It’s hard to believe that a rank C party can achieve such feats.

They truly are exceptional aspiring heroes.

They truly are exceptional aspiring heroes.

“This is getting interesting!”

*Thud*

An arrow hits an orc, causing it to roll back and involve another orc behind.

Currently, three orcs are down. It seems that two of them are disturbed.

“Elisa!”

“I got this!”

At Yui’s signal, Elisa aims her staff towards the opponent.

“Let’s go!”

“Fire!”

The arrows launched by Yui are filled with the power of fire conjured by Elisa, flying directly towards the orcs.

As a result, the three orcs are defeated.

Additionally, the fire spreads to the other two orcs, inflicting continuous damage on them.

“Great!”

“Everything’s going according to plan!”

But the challenge begins here.

When a creature senses its life is in danger, that’s when it shows its true power.

It’s in moments near death when creatures unleash their full potential.

*GROWL*

*ROAR!*

The orcs run desperately towards us with determination on their faces.

“Here they come!”

“Fire!”

Both shoot arrows and spells hastily.

However, the orcs don’t stop.

Despite the arrow and magic attacks, they keep advancing.

“This is bad!”

“It’s definitely a serious problem!”

Both continue to attack while breaking out in cold sweat.

But the orcs get closer and closer.

“Ah–!”

In the end…

“Well done, girls. It’s not common to see someone able to come this far against a stronger opponent.”

A rumble resounded.

The shockwave shook my hair.

I retracted my fist after the blow, and the orc in front of me fell to the ground.

“They truly are aspiring heroes…”

As I prepared to approach the girls, both suddenly lunged at me.

Of course, I couldn’t resist and fell back heavily.

“You’ve been amazing!”

“You’re awesome!”

“Wai… Girls, my back, my back…”

“Aaah!”

“Are you okay?”

“Barely…”

I got up unsteadily with a forced smile.

My back hurts so much that it’s concerning.

“Elisa… just something simple for the pain, please.”

“Yes, understood!”

Thanks to Elisa’s healing magic, I was able to alleviate some of the pain.

Ah, I feel better!

“Well, then, let’s head straight to Count Rieton’s territory.”

I patted my back and started walking towards the gate.
