Part 2[แก้ไข]
---[Underwood], Northeastern plateau with a sea of trees that grew wildly on its top, Edge of the Boundary.
Fifteen minutes before Izayoi and Kuro Usagi met up.
Upon the plateau that was dyed scarlet by the setting sun, little dust twisters were born from the raging tornado like winds.
The suddenness of the strong winds caused the queer looking flock of birds----- a eudemon that was a cross between a deer and bird having the stag horns and bird wings, the Perytons flapped their wings to take to the skies. [8]
"----Now's the time!"
The voice of a girl came from a little hill where the winds appeared to have blown from-------That was the signal given by Kasukabe Yō.
The flock that was driven to the skies and out of the cover of the forest was immediately under fire from arrows that were shot from the sea of trees below. And seven of them fell from the skies.
"I hit them!"
"That was a good catch!"
"No, it's not over yet!"
The cheers of the hunters could be heard from the sea of trees, but some were still on their guards. Having shot their wings to prevent the Perytons escape, the Perytons had already half-risen their bodies to point their sharp horns towards their attackers.
The Perytons have prepared their stance and finally showed their true colors---- the ferocious nature of a predator.
However, the follow-up attack was from another girl upon the shouted order from Asuka.
"Mel! Use the chance to destroy their stability!"
"Yes!"
Accompanying the young child's voice, the ground beneath the Peryton's legs became a muddy slush that sealed their movements.
The Perytons' who had their flight and stable ground stolen from them couldn't help but fall to the ground without being able to move. The hunters wasted no time to use their arrows to seal their fates when they saw this good opportunity.
Having ran over to see the results of the hunt, Yō gave a sigh of relief and relaxed her shoulders.
"…. Asuka, are you okay?"
"I'm fine. Kasukabe-san, thanks for your hard work."
"Thanks, and with this we should be ranked in the top few of the Hunting event?"
"It may not be so. However, the rules did say that horned eudemons are awarded more points, so I guess we can hope for the best."
Setting their goal on the coming out first, they nodded to each other in confidence.
---This hunting event that they participated in was one of the Gift Games hosted for the Harvest Festival.
After the battle with the huge dragon, those eudemons that are classified under the category of 'aggressive man eaters' continued to roam the perimeter of [Underwood].
After they started to launch attacks on the reviving Communities, the [Draco Greif] Alliance could not stand by and watch it anymore, deciding to purge the pest that were the Perytons. So—
"This kind of chance shouldn't be wasted with so many participants on hand at the Harvest Festival. Why not make it into a game that amasses the participants and host a hunting event in an attempt to welcome them?"
-------Izayoi's suggestion was well received by the host who then implemented his idea. And that was how the currently ongoing Game was formed. The duo bent their heads poring over the sheepskin parchment that was the [Geass Roll], as they reread to confirm the rules of the game.

Scanning through the Game clearing conditions once more, they nodded to each other.
"Perytons of this size with the addition of their horns, there should be high points awarded for these."
"Hehe. Yep. Though half of the points would go to the members of [Six Scars], it should still be quite high."
"Nn. But my Gift is almost at its maximum use limit…… and it's almost time we went back."
The duo turned to look at the line of people transporting the Perytons they had caught behind them.
One of the members came over energetically. "Wow! So our regular customers were that strong! With this amount of game, the Harvest Festival will be fired up!"
[Six Scars]' Carol Gundark lightly waved her nicely bent tail.[9]
