"I'll follow you"

An envelope from which Kirill was handed by Marida. After reading the card inside, Aldis thought something for a while.

But as soon as he decided, he suddenly offered to accompany Cyril. Skills Cyril, who has received tremendous benefits and has no money to pay back or pay for the escort, refrained from taking care of it, but Aldis said, "What happened. "I pushed it out.

The City-State Union, located west of the Kingdom of Nagras, is not strictly a state. In fact, it would be more correct to say that various small and medium-sized city-states have come together to form an alliance.

Each city-state has its own king and governs without interfering with other cities. For this reason, the name "City-State Union" was recognized as a country name by the people of the Kingdom of Nagras, but from the people of the City-State Union, it was more like a regional name than a country name, or the name of the camp to which the state belongs. .

Kirill's hometown, the city-state Leiting, is located to the east of the City-State Union. Between the cities of the Union of Urban States and the Royal City of Nagras, it has developed as a gateway to the east as a gateway to trade with the Kingdom of Nagras.

The distance from the royal capital to Leiting takes about three days on an adult's foot. Laytin and the royal capital are connected by a highway, and the security around the area is not bad.

However, it was only a comparison with other places, and there was a risk of encountering robbers and dangerous beasts. You would not normally think of a child like Cyrill as traveling alone without escort.

That's why Aldis's offer was a wish. However, when asking why, Aldis only returns answers that do not point to "don't worry" or "it's for my convenience."

It is encouraging for Cyril to be accompanied by a mercenary like Aldis. However, if anything is a convenient development for me, and if that happens in my own envelope, it's no surprise that it feels creepy.

"I'll keep it tonight"

With that said, Ardis takes care of the sword found at the archeological site.

After a rest in a warm bed after a long absence, Kirill leaves the capital with Aldis the next morning.

According to Aldis, the odd-looking humanoid appeared last night. He said that the screams of the humanoid did not resound in the inn, because he moved to a place where no one was at midnight and repulsed.

Cyrill felt sorry for putting a burden on Aldis. In him, there was always a reason for the sadness of his helplessness and a pungent pride that he did not want to admit. Words of gratitude seem cheap, but you can't reward Aldis in any other way.

"I'm just going to the ratings for my own convenience.

Aldis understands impeccably.

Violet-colored cloth is wrapped in a mauve robe with a short length and wrapped around the forehead. It is around 15 in the year. It is just the age of adulthood and usually childhood. But his behavior was confident, and his words were backed by solid will.

Despite the mediocre appearance, even the black-eyed black hair felt like giving Cyrill a sense of security. Although they are only three or four years old, the person in front of them has a calm atmosphere, as if they had lived for decades.

Husband When he is the same age as Aldis, can he be as deep as he? With that in mind, Cyrill pursued Aldis's back and accelerated his foot.

The day after Cyrills left the royal capital.

A little further to the national border, they go north along the highway. It was to fulfill the request that Aldis received from the role of Jean in the royal capital.

The content of the request is defeated. The defeat target seems to be a monster that appears on the waterside. About five days ago, it was confirmed in a village near the border. This is the story of Cyrills when they were still in the forest of Caucasus.

As usual, a villager, who went fishing, arrived at a nearby pond and noticed a purple creature flying fluffy above the surface of the water. At first, the villagers rubbed their eyes for an illusion of something.

What the bizarre villager saw was a monster called "".

It is a giant sphere reminiscent of blue ore, wrapped in purple flesh, and only partially exposed like an inorganic pupil on the surface. Twelve tentacles extended from the mass of the sucker head or torso to the surface of the body, with a tip attached to catch prey. A simple purple mass with twelve strings hanging from it. It was a monster of such a shape.

The villagers who crouch down return to the village with great care, so as not to notice the demon. In response to the report, Muranaka was upset. "Imperial" was a dangerous monster.

If there is a disparity in the grassland that bears the name of despair and stands at the top of the ecosystem, it is this “holy” that stands at the top of the ecosystem at the waterside. His ability was no less than that of dispares, and he was a more difficult monster to fight underwater or on the water than dispares.

As a matter of course, villagers can't stand their teeth, and even mercenaries who are fighting will return with the same level of ability.

The head of Okumura immediately relies on the ivy to rescue the royal capital, but the royal capital is in good shape in the newly opened northern mine development. Horse carriages throughout the royal capital carry people and materials to the north, and bring back ore and timber from the north.

Naturally, the escort and security around the heavy iron mine were necessary, and a part of the Royal Army was on guard. Of course, that alone cannot cover vast land. Mercenaries were recruited under unusually favorable conditions to cover the shortage of escorts, and mercenaries with a reputation for their skills were heading north just to earn money.

In addition, a number of personnel have been dispatched to investigate Kojima, a territory where a monster called "four-blade" was territorial, and to requisition the fort where the monster called "red eating" was nesting, and the king's army was also "holy" It took some time to form a subjugation squad.

Although no damage has been reported so far, fish caught in the pond is an important source of food for the village. If this situation continues, it could lead to food shortages.

Needless to say, Jean, who had managed to recall mercenaries from the north, was delighted with the return of Aldis. Having met Aldis and offering the exceptional condition of two gold coins is the best proof.

In the end, Aldis's purpose was to go to Leiting, and in some cases, he undertook the request.

"It's about time to see the village in question ... Are you tired or Cyrillic?"

"No, it's okay."

It is about thirty minutes to walk on a country road off the highway. The target village has finally begun to be seen by Cyril and others.

An ordinary village in the distance. Wooden houses were sparsely built, with simple fences surrounding them.

The Cyrills who entered the village from the front entrance felt uncomfortable with the surrounding atmosphere.

"No one ...

"Too quiet ..."

Quiet Despite the fact that it is a village in a marginal frontier, it was no wonder that there was no noise.

"What happens after the entire village has been evacuated?"

"That's a problem-"

When Aldis answered Cyril's question, they heard a loud noise. It sounds like wood is being forcibly beaten. And it was a faint human scream.
