Episode 4: Beyond the Woods

The sea stretches out in front of you.

"I didn't know the other side of the forest was like this..."

Three days after I made my way into the woods.

I was able to bring Elliot safely to the sea.

"I've spent quite a bit of time..."

"No, I don't mind that"

The forest is vast.

For this reason, traveling by carriage takes up to half a day just to get through the woods.

Even if we left Alistair early in the morning and headed straight for the sea, it was definitely evening or about sundown.

At sea, it's dangerous to start an activity at such a time.

So I stayed one night in the village of Dayton before leaving.

Thanks to this I was able to arrive after noon.

"Now don't increase the demand for the villages in that place"

This time, we found out that we stayed one night, but we need to stay one night in the village of Dayton until the port town is fully developed.

When that happens, Dayton Village will be able to flourish as an accomodation town.

"But there's no such thing as know-how as a lodging town in that village."

"You can send that stuff from Alistair."

For the Alistair family putting the border together, it is the village in that place that matters and whoever is responsible. No, I even think it would be better if the Alistair family were an easy person to see.

It is clear that Lew and the others do not have the ability to develop as a lodging town.

"Make up your mind between the Alistair family and the village."

"Isn't that your hometown?

"It was my home town, but I'm already out. It has nothing to do with me, no matter how that village becomes."

If we stay like this, the only future we have is for the Alistair family to take over.

But they are responsible for being in the position of village chiefs, which can also be called quasi nobles, but have no power to protect the village.

"Right. Even if we're talking about this, it's decades away."

It makes more sense to think about it now than it does.

"That's a lot of clear water."

There was a sandy beach ahead that appropriately pushed through the woods.

The water of the waves pushing against the beach was so beautiful that it could see the bottom of the water.

"It's water no one's ever used before. There was no garbage flushing, so nature stayed there."

"This could be used as a beach."

Elliot trying to remember something.

Looks like we stopped by Savona when we talked, so maybe we remember the resort we visited, too.

"Right. It seems to be getting deeper from a while north, so if you're going to develop it as a harbor, that's better."

This neighborhood will be developed as a resort.

Maybe that too.

More investigation may have revealed the details, but I spent only one day working on it, so I didn't know what the big deal was.

"It just doesn't make a difference, no matter what."

"Why not?

"It's..."

The bushes in the woods shake with gutter.

What emerged from it was a raccoon-shaped demon. It's a demon with an adorable look, but it's a slightly nasty demon that uses water magic.

"Dear Elliot!

A knight of escort stands before a demon to protect Elliot.

The only way to get us this time is to bring us across the woods. No escorts have been requested on the road or since we arrived.

So it's the role of the knight to protect Elliot.

It's a menacing demon for ordinary people, but if you're knightly enough to be chosen as Elliot's escort, you can defeat it without struggle.

It would be okay for them to take care of this place.

"This is how demons emerge from the woods. If we're really going to develop this place, we need to find enough power to hunt that much demon on a regular basis."

"I know. The city is going to surround itself with walls."

"At least, that's all you have to do"

"And I was fortunate to have no demons in the ocean"

Demons appearing from the forest to the sea.

He was in the woods. Even on the road, he was attacked frequently. He punched in the pile and roped it, but to that extent it didn't completely prevent the demon from entering, and several ropes had been eaten and chopped a thousand times.

So much damage in just three days.

The only way to deal with it is to keep hunting like every day in order to lose as much damage as possible.

"No, it's a mistake not to have demons in the ocean"

I'm going to try and get the crab shaped demon out of the toolbox - the iron club.

It is a large demon with a width of nearly three metres, which makes crusading very difficult because it is a demon protected by hard methyl.

"Until a few days ago, there were many of these demons on the coast."

"What!?

"But that's when I crusaded, so I'll be fine for a few more days."

"Right."

He was caressing his chest down in peace and ho.

I was allowed to crusade with the momentum to wipe out all demons on the coast. If it's a weak demon, it may remain, but if it's a knight, it's a level demon that can be crusaded with one effort, so he's letting it go.

Ten days or so would be the limit for the current state to persist even after crusading that far.

After that, the demon will be activated again.

"I'm sorry you had to do that."

"No, it's only natural that this person has taken on the opening request."

It's not just safety on the road.

It's our job to keep our destination safe.

"Maybe less, but I want you to take it"

Elliot gives me a bag of gold coins from her storage ring.

A shitty weight comes through my palm.

"Can I get this much?

It's packed with dozens of gold coins.

I'm confused because I don't feel like I've worked that far.

"I hope you don't mind. That's all you did."

"Really?

"If I wanted to make this many paths in the woods, I needed to hire over a hundred people to do it while letting as many adventurers escort me. Considering the amount you'll need at that time, it's cheap."

If he is convinced, he has nothing to say from me.

"Thank you."

I put the bags of gold coins I received into storage rings.

"Okay, I'll let you play from here"

"Ho."

Head to the dressing room built with [Architecture (Build)] in a prominent spot on the beach.

I built the dressing room bigger so everyone could change at once, so I can afford it.

I change into the bathing suit I bought when I went to Savona last year.

"Are we done talking about work?

"Oh."

Ira, holding Sierra, was sitting in a chair and relaxing as she headed under the beach parasol that was facing the beach.

"You don't swim?

"Yeah. I'll take care of Sierra."

Ira is also changing into a swimsuit.

But it looks like we're not going to swim this year because Sierra is here.

Three days ago, after all the work and returning to the mansion, Sierra, who couldn't stand the loneliness, cried badly when she saw us.

Then, I don't want to go away with the thing Ira betting on.

Sounds like everybody's already playing.

I had no plans in the morning to bring all my family to the sea to [summon] Ira and the others.

The journey of that painstakingly crafted road is also a flash if you use your skills.

"I'm playing, but my real purpose is to escort the Elliotts."

"I know, I know."

I have a knight of escorts, but I can't throw out the possibility that demons will show up that they can't handle alone.

However, if you buy even an escort and get out in this situation, it will hurt the pride of the knight.

So continue the escort while pretending to be playing.

Let's go.

"Oh, no."

Head to the sea with a Sierra wearing a straw hat to combat heat stroke.

I'm not going to swim, but I wanted to show Sierra the ocean, so it's up to me to bring her here.
