Goblin Slayer world.
No different from the timeline in Leo's world, it was already late at night.
Sword Maiden.
No, more accurately, Gold-Rank Adventurer Lian Viviet, along with her four other adventurer companions, were already trapped in this nest.
The surrounding dim environment could only be illuminated by the magic user's wand, providing not particularly good lighting.
After fighting and killing this group of goblins, all five people including Lian Viviet, the magic user, the knight, and the swordsman had varying degrees of injuries.
In this situation, they'd actually be fine if they just left.
But the surrounding active goblins, like maggots on bone, maintained their distance without rashly launching an attack on the adventurer party.
More like—
This group of cunning creatures was luring them, driving them deeper into the cave.
Facing numerous goblins, the retreating adventurer party had already fallen back to a spacious cave. Borrowing the light from the magic user's staff.
Lian Viviet finally realized her situation...
Surrounding her were densely packed green-skinned goblins wielding various crude weapons. Currently, her stamina had only briefly recovered.
She gripped the longsword in her hands tightly.
This was currently the only tool that could protect herself and her teammates. And Lian Viviet's heart was gradually shrouded in despair.
「Group Notice: Detected group member 'Gold-Rank Adventurer' encountering danger. Now initiating group member rescue mission, participant limit 2 people.」
「Mission Reward: 100 points.」
"?"
When the notification appeared before his eyes, Leo froze in place. The Dimensional Chat Group would actually proactively issue group member rescue missions.
As for 'Gold-Rank Adventurer' in the rescue mission.
He really had no leads at all. After all, there were many worlds involving adventurers, like KonoSuba, Goblin Slayer, Rising of the Shield Hero, Redo of Healer, etc...
It was a bit difficult to guess based on the group nickname alone.
However.
The mission reward points—this setting was incredibly easy for Leo to understand. They should be usable to exchange for items in the Dimensional Chat Group.
"Better sign up."
"Now that the Holy Sword User profession level has risen to Lv3, according to the average worldview of current group members, it shouldn't be too dangerous."
He thought briefly, unwilling to miss this opportunity.
And with the Dimensional Chat Group's issued group member rescue mission, the originally quiet group chat saw the lurking members appear one after another.
Railgun: Gold-Rank Adventurer actually encountered danger? Is there anywhere that needs help?
Butterfly Estate Master: Wow. Rarely is there a chance to go to other worlds, why did I have to accept this task at hand? Starting to regret it.
Butterfly Estate Master: @Gold-Rank Adventurer, are you there?
Butterfly Estate Master: What problem did you encounter?
Future Holy Sword User: I happen to be free right now. I've already applied to participate in the mission. I wonder if I can help Gold-Rank Adventurer.
"..."
Currently, the Gold-Rank Adventurer who needed rescue hadn't appeared. Leo could only try to obtain intelligence about their world through the chat group as much as possible.
Without hesitation.
Ordinary High School Student: Does anyone know about the world Gold-Rank Adventurer is in? Can you tell me in the chat group? I've already accepted the mission.
Railgun: I remember Gold-Rank Adventurer mentioned that in her world there are dragons, elves, magical beasts, and goblins are also very rampant.
Ordinary High School Student: Thanks. Please take care of me from now on @Future Holy Sword User
With the final number of rescue participants confirmed, the Dimensional Chat Group's notification appeared before Leo again.
「Group Notice: Ordinary High School Student and Future Holy Sword User have accepted the group member rescue mission. After waiting 10 seconds, will be transported to that world.」
「Group livestream function about to activate.」
「Teleportation about to begin...」
In the surrounding pitch-black alley, pedestrians wouldn't choose to walk this path at all, and the surrounding ghosts had already been cleared out by Leo.
No need to worry about exposure.
He stood in place, waiting for the Dimensional Chat Group's countdown to end. The vision before his eyes gradually blurred, and when Leo's consciousness returned again.
He was already in an unfamiliar world.
"..."
The surrounding environment was shrouded in darkness, but he could vaguely recognize it as a mine tunnel. The air was filled with an unpleasant stench, making Leo furrow his brows.
Also participating in the mission was a girl from the magic sword academy world, with a fairy-like beautiful appearance.
She had gleaming silvery-white long hair naturally draped over her shoulders, and even in such a dark mine tunnel environment, it still shone brilliantly.
Her skin was fair, her features exquisitely crafted as if by God, her azure eyes clear and bright.
She wore the Holy Sword Academy uniform with blue as the main color. Her slender, straight legs were wrapped in black stockings, and the long hair on her right side was tied with a red ribbon.
Also arriving in an unfamiliar world.
Maintaining vigilance, Lisesharte's expression was grave as she surveyed the surrounding environment. Not yet having become a Holy Sword User, she held a short spear in her hands.
Lisesharte noticed standing beside her a youth in unfamiliar clothing but with exceptionally handsome and sunny features, inevitably becoming somewhat lost in thought.
But recalling this was an urgent rescue mission.
She proactively greeted: "Ordinary High School Student?"
"Hello, Future Holy Sword User."
After a simple greeting—after all, awakening the "Holy Sword User" profession was entirely thanks to Lisesharte uploading the awakening guide to the chat group files.
Leo carefully examined the surrounding environment.
Following the direction of distant fighting sounds, he summoned his holy sword without hesitation, his tone decisive: "Let's complete the rescue mission first!"
"..."
Although she really wanted to examine the holy sword Leo had awakened, Lisesharte still nodded seriously.
Advancing along the dim mine tunnel toward the sound's direction, what came into view was an extremely spacious and empty space. Borrowing the surrounding faint light.
Countless green-skinned goblins appeared before Leo and Lisesharte's eyes.
However...
What ultimately attracted Leo's attention was the golden-haired figure wielding a longsword, actively defending to buy time for the adventurer teammates.
Smooth hair draped over shoulders, the girl's delicate features made his impression gradually familiar!
He quickly recognized her identity.
Goblin Slayer world, the future Sword Maiden who would become a servant of the gods. And now, the opportunity to change the world line lay before Leo!
"Are you ready?"
"About time..."
