In his previous life, the information about the enemy was brought back by the three survivors.

After Hilo perished alongside the enemy, the three, following a pre-planned escape route, fled to the mountains and escaped.

At that time, the information they provided was—

The enemy was a four-armed monster who used swords, a Class 6 monster.

Class 6 monsters weren’t considered high-level in the monster hierarchy, but considering the time…

The system had only been activated for a month, many first-generation heroes were still dying, and the appearance of second-generation, or even third-generation, heroes was only a matter of time, and even fighting Class 4 monsters was a challenge.

【Mad Blade Hilo】 single-handedly defeated a Class 6 monster.

This is why she became a legend.

Some might think that a hero with a powerful special skill could easily defeat a Class 6 monster.

But the problem was…

How many of those newly promoted heroes, level 10 or below, could even survive to face a Class 6 monster?

Even with the 【League of Heroes】 established, most heroes were only just starting to fight Class 3 monsters.

Let alone in his previous life, when everyone was still exploring, going through twists and turns, and Hilo killed such a high-level monster.

It was simply unbelievable to the heroes at that time.

As for the demon’s name, even the system couldn’t identify the characters above its head.

But after humanity deciphered the monster language in later years and found relevant materials in this city, they learned the name and title of the demon Hilo had killed.

That is, the name Anyi knew, Demon Baron Ferdinand.

He was a noble among monsters, and killing him wouldn’t be easy.

Encountering him would also be difficult.

Hilo’s team had some luck encountering him in their previous life, and the monsters underestimated their strength.

The same thing could happen this time, but…

There were four more variables with Anyi and his team.

「If possible, let’s just gather information.」

That’s what Anyi wanted.

There was no need to kill a Class 6 monster.

Their purpose was to gather information and plan for the future conquest of the city.

This monster city would become a huge “experience farm” for many heroes.

Many heroes could gain a lot of experience from this large-scale extermination.

In short, this would be the first large-scale Tale for many heroes.

The Tale would start with clearing minor monsters and culminate in a battle against the boss.

If they skipped the minor monsters and went straight for the boss, the result might be the same as in his previous life…

Leading to the death of 【Blade Hero】 Hilo.

Ariana felt it was too risky and didn’t want to go, and Anyi felt the same.

But if they didn’t take risks and only aimed to gather information, that would be fine.

Anyi didn’t intend to fight a Class 6 monster at this stage. Gathering information first, then gathering heroes to attack the city, would maximize their gains.

Even if he could fight a Class 6 monster, this was a territory, and the monsters would quickly send another lord to take over.

Moreover, there were many Class 5 and lower monsters here. Clearing them out would be meaningless if they didn’t kill the Class 6 monster.

“Look, those are monster villages.”

Stolen story; please report.

Looking down from the mountain, there were houses along a small river in the valley.

Some monsters could be seen near the houses. Their skin was dark red, they had long ears and gray-white hair, their bodies were slightly taller than humans, and their physiques were stronger.

【Unlocking Bestiary: Demon

Strength: 15 Agility: 10 Endurance: 10

Durability: 10 Prana: 5 Intelligence: 3

Technique: 5】

【Creature: Demon

One of the most common races among monsters, attributes vary based on individuals, and abilities change with evolution.】

In short, they are a race with a very high potential.

“Wait…” Ariana’s golden eyes widened, “These… are all Class 3 monsters…?”

“That’s right, all of them.” Hilo nodded.

Hilo’s team remained silent, but Ariana, Layton, and Miruku were stunned.

These… are all Class 3 monsters?

This is just a small village in the monster territory?!

They all realized…

Even the commoners among the monsters were all Class 3 monsters!

A single demon could easily wipe out a perfectly developed small town!

Anyi maintained his calm demeanor.

He had known all this.

That’s right, these are monsters, with physical attributes of 10 or more, capable of simple magic, and possessing innate combat instincts.

The Class 3 monsters they had encountered before all had clear weaknesses.

Like the Slime King, it could be killed by exploiting its known mechanics.

The Goblin Shaman, high Agility but low physical attributes.

The Headless Knight, without its horse, is useless.

And the Blood Demon and Bull Demon, high physical attributes, but no brains.

But these demons were different.

Their attributes were balanced, with no obvious weaknesses.

To kill them, you had to overwhelm them in Strength and Agility.

“Anyi, if we use [Heavenly Sphere] here, is there a chance to kill them all?” Ariana turned to Anyi.

“No need, suddenly destroying a monster village will only alert others.” Anyi said.

“Yes, I agree with Sword Hero.” Eira nodded.

“Alright…” Ariana didn’t say anything more.

Anyi glanced at her, not intending to say anything.

He could understand Ariana’s feelings.

Because when he first saw the monster village, he was also thinking…

How could he wipe out the entire village?

How could he ensure that no demons escaped, killing them all?

They traveled a long way, starting in the early morning and reaching the monster city at dusk.

From this path, they would appear to be entering 【Moonwish City】 from a monster village.

Regardless, they wouldn’t be suspected of being human.

From afar, the eight of them saw a massive city gate.

Monsters aren’t human. Some monsters are enormous, so the gate was naturally also gigantic.

Before entering the city, the eight applied a special powder to their bodies, and then rubbed it into their hair.

This masked their human scent.

Although they didn’t know what the scent of monsters was, as long as their “human scent” was gone, that’s fine.

Gradually, the eight blended into a group of various monsters, minotaurs, centaurs, pig-faced demons, all kinds.

Several demon guards at the gate asked questions before allowing entry, and the monsters replied.

The problem was, they couldn’t understand!

“What should we do?” Hilo asked Eira.

“It’s fine, just imitate the way those monsters speak.” Eira whispered.

“Then you do it, I can’t remember!” Hilo whispered back.

“Okay, I’ll try my best.” Eira nodded.

He was a mage, he was somewhat confident in his memory.

Moreover, before they came, they had learned some common monster words, at least greetings.

Finally, the eight heroes, wearing long robes and hoods, arrived at the city gate.

A dark-red skinned demon guard observed them.

“You few, you look strange. Where are you from?” (Monster language) The demon guard asked seriously.

Recently, they had heard that some monsters around the city had been killed, so they increased their security measures. Anyone entering the city had to be questioned.

Of course, their actions weren’t targeted at humans.

Which monster would think humans could kill monsters?

They thought the culprit must be another monster, so they were conducting necessary questioning.

At this moment, Eira said with a gentle smile: “Hello.” (Monster language)

The demon guard felt like he was speaking gibberish, but still nodded: “Yes, hello.

Can you answer my question? Where are you from?”

Eira nodded: “Thank you.”

The demon guard frowned: “I asked where you’re from, answer my question!”

Eira’s expression stiffened.

What happened? The opponent seemed angry?

That’s right, remember what that monster said earlier!

The pronunciation is…

“As you can see, I’m from the Pigman village in the east.” Eira said with a smile.

“What are you joking about?!” The demon guard immediately became angry.

Pigman village?

Where’s your pig head?!

“Don’t joke around here! I’ll warn you one last time!

Tell me your race and where you’re from!” The demon guard said sternly.

Eira: “?”

No, the opponent really seemed angry!

What should I do?

What should I say when a monster is angry?

Eira could only chuckle and wave his hand, recalling what he had heard other monsters say: “I’m from… the Horseman Village in the west.”

“Seize him!” The demon guard roared.

He had warned them, yet they were still fooling around?!

Suspicious!

Very suspicious!

The demon guards raised their weapons and surrounded Eira!

The other heroes immediately became vigilant but didn’t immediately draw their weapons.

Eira quickly waved his hands: “I’m a Minotaur!”

“Good! No more talk!

Explain yourself in prison!”

The demon guard shouted, and the other soldiers approached Eira, ready to arrest him.

“Wait a moment. (Monster language)”

Suddenly, a cold voice came from behind the team.

“We’ve come from the distant Ipos Baron’s territory. This friend is a fire monster, he was just trying to joke around. (Monster language)” Anyi explained.

【Sword Hero: Mr. Eira, show them a fireball from your hand.】

Eira playfully summoned a fireball from his hand.
