What's Wrong with a Great Hero Being Jobless

Black gold streak.

As its name suggests, the mountains revolve around the high Black Gold Mountains, which appear black.

It's going to be hard to get gear up when it comes to climbing, but you don't have to get to the top of the mountain. Dwarf's Iron Blood Kingdom is in the mountains. Not in the mountains. It's literally "in" the mountain.

The Dwarves are famous for digging holes, and they're digging tunnels all over the Black Gold Mountains and building cities there. The Arnotu elves said there was a big entrance and exit a little up from the foot of the mountain, and they were in alliance with humans, so they would not let them in. I don't know if you're welcome.

I was going upstream along the river of tears. They say the biggest entrance to and exit from the Iron Blood Kingdom, the Great Iron Fist Gate, is near the river of tears, so you don't have to worry about getting lost if you do. With rivers, water can be easily secured, and you can bathe in shallow waters. It's a bad idea.

But because the river of tears was the territory of the Lizardmans, this plan collapsed.

The only way to get it to work is to stay away from the river of tears and go for the Black Gold Streak.

Well, everything's ad hoc. There is no such thing as track modification to this extent.

If I hadn't been on the lookout all the time, I could have said it wasn't a big deal.

It's getting dark, so we decided to camp.

Momohina lights the fire, strawberries and milieu prepare the rice, and we all eat.

I was a little confused about whether or not to do the incineration because of the Lizardman thing, but the quality of dinner varies a lot depending on whether there is a fire or not, and decided to give it a try. For now, I don't feel any sign of Lizardman approaching.

Except the "one" is watching.

No, should I say "them"?

Hi. The same guy hasn't been following us around all this time, he seems to take turns occasionally.

He's always about fifteen meters from us, hiding himself in the shade of a tree or in a bush.

Or so, he's not trying to find it because he even has a slight facial appearance.

Instead, it seems like you're letting us know that you're here, even though you may not be as proud of your existence.

They're human, small. Not as big as a human adult. About a child.

Overall, it looks black, but the skin on my face looks blue and white. Two or gray? It's my face. My eyes are big, though I don't know until then. He has yellow eyes.

"... what, that"

Strawberries have been concerned ever since they recognized them.

Momohina, who has fallen asleep and fumbled on the ground already, does not seem to have done so willingly.

"Come on......"

Milieu frowned and gave me a water bottle.

By the way, when I ask for water, instead of handing over the water bottle, keep the water bottle with your hand, have a drink.

At first it was a little nasty, but I'm used to it. When I put my mouth on the water bottle and drank it very hard and nodded, even Milliu mulled my mouth with a white cloth.

The strawberry that was looking at it looked up,

"I'm not a couple..."

I managed to whisper something like that.

Millilu,

"It's a waste to be a couple. I am the one who worships Lady Xaragi. It's just a squire."

and corrected with a straight face, the strawberry snorted.

"... well, yes"

"Yes, sooner or later, I hope that you will leave me with you, even if the day will come when Lady Xaragi will welcome your wife"

"That's... that's a little nasty, isn't it? Well, I don't think you like being Kisaragi's wife..."

"Why is that?

"What? Why, because it's xaragi..."

"Lady Kisaragi is Lady Kisaragi without having to mention it. Master Kisaragi is a wonderful man."

Milliu has his hands on his big chest, making his eyes glare.

"Stop it, Milieu"

I laughed at him.

"Strawberries are assholes, so you don't know how awesome I am. Poor thing."

"Don't pity me on your own!

When the strawberry shouted so, he stood up abruptly. Turn your back on us and walk away from the burning fire at foot like a gut-kick on the ground.

"Hey, where are you going?"

When I call it off, the strawberries look back,

"Wherever you want!

"What. Shomben."

"Chi, no..."

"Ah, it's bigger, not smaller."

"Well, it's not big, it's small!

"I knew it was Shomben. Then say so."

"It's not like I can tell you. No. Don't follow me!?"

The strawberries ran away and quickly became invisible.

As Milliu unraveled the dead branches into the burning fire,

"I'm worried."

"Bezu."

I put my cheek cane on my knee and turned to it. Temuzin is eating grass.

"I'm not worried at all. I don't know about that bibibili."

"Mr. Ichika, apparently, doesn't really know about Master Kisaragi"

Milliu stood up and glanced at the strawberries as they headed.

"I'll see how it goes. Don't let anything happen to a strawberry who's been left alone."

"Whatever you want."

"Yes."

Milliu went after the strawberry with little footsteps.

"... hehe?

Almost sleeping Momohina opened her eyes half way.

I put my hands up and stroked Momohina's head.

Sleep tight.

"Nyah. No, not for a while."

"I can't help it"

I sighed and looked around as I stroked Momohina's head.

My hand stopped.

He's not here.

That creature was supposed to be watching us.

"Momohina"

"Hih?

"Get up."

"Aye."

Momohina jumped out of her hair. It was right after that.

"No, no, no, no... Huh!?"

Voice. Scream.

Figs.

"Let's go, Momohina! Thamuzin stay there!

"Yes. Yo."

"Brunn."

Me and Momohina ran.

"Milliu!"

When I called, Milliu immediately said,

"Yes......! Ichika is about to be taken......!

and replied.

Where is it?

It was dark and invisible, but the voice was heard from over there.

"Here it is......!

Milliu shouted again.

"Over there!"

Momohina pulled me out when she said so.

I decided to follow Momohina.

"Strawberry! If you're hearing me, speak up...!

"Mmm......! Mmm! Mmm......!

Is your mouth blocked? There must be more than one opponent.

It's not like I didn't think this could happen. Yet what I did caught my guard.

"Hilarious! There he is! Miri...!

Momohina points to the previous one.

Indeed, I see Milliu's hindsight.

But the strawberries.

"Damn......!

I overtook Momohina at full speed and caught up with Milliu as well.

"Milliu! Is the strawberry...!?"

"I am in sight! Because elves have better nights than humans......!

"You still see it!?"

"Yes! Don't worry! Ahhh..."

"What's wrong!?"

"Yes, he's gone!

"Oh!?"

We went to the point where Milliu lost sight of the strawberry and searched the area.

I can't find it.

No strawberries, no that creature. No shadows, no shapes.

"... whichever..."

As Momohina approached, Milliu sat down.

"Also, I'm sorry......! It's my fault! It's all my fault! Please punish me......!

"Do it, bokeh"

I was driven by the urge to kick Milliu's ass, but I stopped.

Breathe.

It took less than a second to calm down.

"Punish you, what's the point? Is the strawberry coming back? You're kidding. Don't fuck with me, bald guy."

"Miri."

Momohina held Milliu's back.

"Daiji-kun. Miri, I'm not bald. I want to find Kisaragi."

I, uh, snorted and walked to a big tree growing about five meters away.

"I don't know if I can find it."

You can't tell if you're hiding in the bush and not getting close, but there's a hole in the root of that tree.

It's a pretty big hole.

It has a diameter of at least one metre.

"It doesn't look like we have zero clues."
