Neutron Star, who was walking at the front, used the short alloy sword in his hand to hack off a vine blocking their way. With the other hand holding the small shield dropped by the Sand Scorpion earlier, he pushed away and flattened the shrub on the right.

However, he could blame no one, as he was the newbie in the company still under a trial run. Manual labor was a stage that the low-level people needed to experience.
