10 – First Encounter of Horror (1)

Me and Seina escaped from Rania Forest and stayed in a city called Obidus for a day.

This is a place where arts and crafts such as painting, music, and architecture are the main places, and it has also been a favorite tourist destination for people from all over the world.

“It’s delicious.”

Seina swallowed her deliciously cooked rabbit meat in her mouth.

The table was already full of dishes piled up like a mountain.

As much as the engine is a sports car, the amount of fuel used is also large.

“Don’t you eat Gerard? I think you’ll be busy in the future. You have to eat well to use your strength.”

Seina glanced at her and said, as if I had noticed.

“I already have enough. Eat a lot.”

“Okay, I’ll work hard for Gerard, so I’ll eat a little more.”

Pick laughed.

Still, Seina was quite polite for a werewolf.

‘Okay, keep eating.’

Because I have to roll to the bone in the future.

Thought so, I opened the newspaper.

As expected, it’s a f*cking game.

There are newspapers from the Middle Ages.

[Death of the Seven Lords. The cause is unknown.]

[Monarch meeting held in 5 years. The whole world is buzzing.]

[Is the balance that has been maintained so far collapsed?]

‘As I thought.’

Only the key contents were skimmed through.

Recently, the world has been noisy due to the death of the 7 Lords.

That was natural.

Because the Seven Lords, who were said to be as strong as the Overlord, died without knowing the cause.

From noble mtl dot com

‘By the way, why did this man really die?’

Even in the game, the death of the 7 Lords was not explained in detail.

It’s just that it was supposed to be backwards from the beginning.

I don’t know if the production team didn’t make it because it was annoying, or if it was omitted in the middle, but no users were particularly curious about it.

It’s not even mentioned at the end of the game.

‘But, just in case, I’ll find out later.’

There was nothing wrong with being careful.

‘I heard that the monarch meeting is in a week. If we leave today, we’ll arrive leisurely.’

I wanted to make a weapon for Seina while I was here, but I didn’t have enough time and materials for ‘that’.

It was a time when I folded the newspaper in half, appeasing my regrets.

-Quaang!

Someone broke through the inn door.

“Ah! I will die of hunger.”

“If you’re this hungry, you’ll lose even if you fight the goblins? Ha ha ha!”

“Both of you, be quiet. We’re not alone!”

It was a group of two men and one woman.

Judging from the fact that they are wearing armor, they must be a group of mercenaries.

“The owner-! The three that come out the fastest! Fast! Fast! Do you know the feeling?”

“I’m sorry about this. All the food materials are gone, so I think we will only be able to stay overnight.”

The innkeeper looked at them with a puzzled face.

At this, the mercenary frowned and jumped up from his seat.

“Hey, owner! The sun is up in the sky and there is no food already? Doesn’t this just mean you don’t want to do business with us?”

“I hope I don’t misunderstand you. It’s not like that, we ordered so much food from the table over there that we really ran out of ingredients. Please understand that we are in an awkward position too!”

“Huh?!”

At that time, the mercenary and I met eyes.

I said, glaring at him indifferently.

“Is there a problem? I paid a fair price.”

Buck and go.

The guy walks with a majestic stride.

“Problems? A lot of problems.”

‘Don’t come.’

I hoped that he would go back like this.

I had no interest in beating people.

“I ate a lot. I’m starving to death. Because of guys like you who don’t think of the people behind us, we have to walk around the inn floor again. How are you going to compensate me?”

The bastard said condescendingly.

“Don’t do it! You seem like a tall person.”

A woman presumed to be his colleague shouted from behind.

“… Are you tall?”

His body trembles slightly.

“Keuheum, now that I think about it, I could make a mistake, so I’ll do this.”

He said in a low voice.

However, a female mercenary strode forward without her noticing this, and she stopped him by grabbing his arm.

“No, I told you not to do it! We have a request!”

I sighed at the sight.

‘I did something I should never have done.’

It was kind of like a trigger.

It’s like a estrous drug that makes a calm male excited again.

As expected.

“Sir! He doesn’t even have an escort, so he looks like he’s from a village aristocrat. Do you think all nobles are the same nobles? Hey, high man. It’s not such a glamorous place here. One person could disappear without mice or birds. Do you understand?!”

He glanced at the woman, and went mad like a whale out of water.

– Kreurreung.

Suddenly, Seina began to growl.

She nonchalantly stretched out her hand and stopped her, then said to her bastard.

“Hey, if you don’t want to see blood, just go back.”

“Ha, look at this gentleman? Hey nerd Can’t understand the situation? Even if you bow your head and apologize, you’re putting your hat on. What’s the b*tch in the front? He’s wearing a weird hat.”

It was when the mercenary was about to take off Seina’s hat.

—Tak!

I jumped up and grabbed his wrist.

“f*ck, what are you doing? Don’t let go?!”

“If you go back to this, I’ll make it work for you.”

“You are sucking a dick… Aww—!”

I used maximization to strengthen my grip.

At the same time, his screams fill the hall of the inn.

“Leave this! Aww—!”

I broke his arm and slammed it down on the table.

Observing this, one of the remaining comrades finally rushes here.

“That, please stop! Be better! Not very good!”

“I should have warned you.”

“I-I think he drank a lot today. Please forgive me for once. Please!”

“Turn it off!”

The guy underneath me makes a dying sound and taps my arm as if begging for help.

It was only then that I let go of his arm.

“Take it and leave immediately.”

I said to the woman next to me who was at a loss.

Since it was the cause, it meant to get rid of it.

“Turn it off! Please remember this!”

As he was being supported, he glared at me with a reddened face.

“Looks like you haven’t come to your senses.

Let’s pretend to move one step, and they run away.

‘Tsk.’

He clicked his tongue and shook his head.

For a moment, I thought I could understand why nobles hated commoners.

Seina and I got out of Obidos City.

I wanted to look around a little more slowly, but I didn’t have much time to relax.

‘Sorry.’

When I glanced back, Obidos, the city of art, was nowhere to be seen.

As much as it was a beautiful city, I will definitely come back later.

“Gerard.”

Then, Seina opened her mouth.

For some reason, she couldn’t say much after the trouble with them earlier.

“What is it?”

“Thank you.”

“… ….”

She suddenly felt a sense of deja vu at Seina’s words.

Did a werewolf say thank you so gloomy?

“But, next time, don’t do that.”

Her horse’s reins were pulled back to stop at her words.

It was only then that I realized what I had done wrong.

‘… I forgot that fact.’

Werewolves are a sublime and vast race.

The pride of battle was high, and the pride of oneself was overflowing.

Because of that, he was more of a protector than a protector.

In fact, her tribe has protected several races, including elves and dwarves.

But I broke that pride.

By punishing her mercenary, she was strategized as a being to be protected.

‘Among them, that must be the biggest reason….’

Everything else aside.

She swore allegiance to me.

I decided to become my sword, but rather it’s like being protected.

Is there anything more ridiculous than that?

“… I’m sorry.”

The thought was brief.

It was an obvious mistake.

“That’s right, no need to be sorry.”

Unlike usual, Seina speaks in a non-laughing tone.

Still, I wasn’t too worried.

Because I knew how to solve it.

“Can I have a T-bone steak?”

“I’m not in the mood for a joke.”

“With truffle beef stew as a bonus.”

“… Even if you say no.”

“Okay. Do it with Golden Rabbit Stew. This is food that is hard to eat even if you have money.”

“… ….”

Seina made a worried face.

A proud werewolf or whatever, after all, was a carnivore.

In other words, there is no business in front of food.

“… I can’t help but say that. I don’t have much of an appetite.”

It was a lie that even a monkey wouldn’t believe, but she pretended to be tricked.

‘It’s simple.’

Well, that’s why I liked her more.

“Kyaa——!”

It was then.

The sound of ear-piercing screams came from far away.

“Hey there!”

Looking at the direction Seina pointed to, armored men were attacking the wagon down the hill.

“Will you save me?”

She asked with an eager look if Seina wanted to restore her earlier disgrace.

“… No, it just passes.”

“Okay, then right away… uh?”

She looked at me with her wide eyes as if my answer was unexpected.

“Why… ?”

“Why? ?”

That’s right.

“Because it’s a trap.”

It seemed to me.

The level of the person in the carriage.
