Chapter 135: Defeating the Griffon
As we climbed up the mountain, we came to a place a little farther away from our goal.
If we get any closer, we might enter the griffon’s security net.
“Please stand back and wait. I don’t want you to get caught in the middle of this.”
The hunter nodded his head and hurried away.
“So, what should I do?”
Aeris asked, full of motivation.
“Well, set up barriers and magic traps around the place.”
Tauro replied as he checked their surroundings.

“Eh? Are you sure this is the right place? If we’re this far away, the griffon won’t notice us, so what’s the point?”
“It’s okay. We’re just within range at this distance.”
Tauro answered, checked the trees around him and began to climb. He then took out a rope from the “magic storage” and began to tie it to the trees.
He was so meticulous in his work that the ropes spread across the sky like a spider’s web.
“I see. So you’ve made it difficult for them to approach from above, right?”
Aeris could see Tauro’s intentions in the spreading scene.
“And while I’m at it, Aeris, please put up a magic resistant barrier.”
Speaking of griffons, they are said to use wind magic, so this is a countermeasure.
Aeris understood that too, so she obeyed honestly.
“But what’s the point if we can’t really get the griffon over here?”
As soon as she finished casting the barrier spell, Aeris checked with Tauro.

“It’ll be ideal to kill the griffon before it gets here, but it might not be just one griffon, right? Even B-rank adventurers have a hard time with them, so it’s important to be prepared.”
“Well, yeah. Legend has it that a griffon once drove an attacking dragon away. It’s important to be cautious.”
What? Is there such a legend?
Tauro’s eyes widened silently at the information that Aeris had just given him and he looked towards her.
“Griffons are on another level…”
“Yeah, that’s why there aren’t a lot even among the best adventurers who deal with them. I think those who do are either very crazy or in dire straits.”
“…Yeah, should you really be talking about this in front of me when I’m about to deal with a griffon?”
Tauro retorted at Aeris, who didn’t mean any ostracism.
Tauro climbed the tallest tree nearby.He directly sees the griffon’s nest, as he can see anything with his naked eye if it were within the range of his bow due to his “God’s Hand” skill.
“There are two gryphons…? Aeris, we should get started.”
Ad
He let Aeris, who was waiting below, know.
“Ready when you are.”
Tauro nodded and descended from the tree. He drew his Artemis bow, two arrows in hand.
Overhead looking up, of course, there were multiple layers of rope.
““God’s hand.” long range sniping, light arrows and continuous shooting…!”
Tauro muttered, shooting an arrow.
Two arrows of light dodged the multiple ropes and flew in different arcs to the griffon’s nest.
Tauro drew two more arrows out and released them immediately.
The arrows cut through the air and were sucked into the griffons in the nest.
Tauro couldn’t see it, but he could hear the high-pitched cries of the griffons.
It seemed to have hit the target.
There was a response.
The silhouettes of the griffons appeared in his “true eye”.
One of them was approaching them at high speed.
Tauro couldn’t see them with his naked eyes because he was in the forest, but he could see their silhouettes using his “true eye”, so he fired arrow after arrow into the sky.
But…
“… it ducked!”
As Tauro said that, he looked up in the sky and saw a griffon coming at him.
But the griffon was bounced back by the barrier and at the same time, it was caught by the trap magic, and suffered a high-pitched squeal in the sky as it was numbed by a lightning strike.
Tauro didn’t miss the opportunity and fired an ordinary arrow.
He didn’t have enough time to fire a light arrow.
With the power correction from the God’s Hand and the increased power from Artemis’ bow, the ordinary arrow was no longer ordinary.
The arrow rumbled and pierced the griffon.
“Okay, I got him!”
This was the moment when Tauro was convinced of his victory.
The griffon used its last bit of strength to fire a wind magic “vacuum blade” at Tauro!
“I knew that was coming.”
The “Vacuum Blade” released by Griffon was offset by the magic-resistant barrier that Aeris had previously set up and scattered.
I couldn’t confirm it or not, but the griffon died in the sky and fell onto the rope stretched out like a spider’s web and stopped
At that moment, the “voice of the world” echoed in my brain.
Ad
“Confirmed one of the conditions for activating the special skill [&% $ #] <the person who subdued the noble guard in the sky>. The ability [levitating] has been acquired.”
”…This should bring the beasts back to these mountain forests…”
The voice of the world aside, Tauro was relieved and thanked Aeris for placing the barrier. After that, he collected the carcass.
