Gaiden Episode 41

[We'll help with any wind.]

Amidst such a voice, a boy hesitated and hesitated.

The boy was in trouble.

What was bothering me was that monsters had recently inhabited the mountain behind the village.

There were signs that they were snooping around the village secretly.

And the biggest problem is that the boy's parents ruined the field they left behind.

I appealed to the village elders, but they responded hesitantly saying that they were not harmed.

I will talk to the lord soon.

It's dangerous, so wouldn't it be better to be careful? etc... … .

But it's someone else's business. It was clear that the adults would not help.

It would be difficult if the remaining fields were also destroyed.

The boy's parents passed away in an accident the year before last, and he is somehow feeding his younger siblings by cultivating the fields left by their parents.

However, you don't know when the lord's army will rise, and you don't know if the monsters will attack even tonight.

Villagers won't help anyone.

Not to mention, they couldn't afford to hire mercenaries. I don't know what will happen if I sell the field, but that's why it's meaningless.

In the end, the boy took out a crudely carved spear and an ax that he used to cut wood.

I know I am reckless, but I can't help it.

The boy doesn't think he can do it himself either.

First, check the monsters, take the proper evidence, and go back and inform the villagers.

Even one properly is fine, so if you secure the evidence, you won't be able to ignore it.

?..uh ”

The only thing I can do is not forcefully shrink my neck, which is burning with tension.

So the boy climbed the mountain.

I came face to face with a suspicious voice.

[I understand your difficulty.

ruler! If you allow me, I'll save you with my humble skills.]

Who the hell is that? I can't see her face, but I can hear her voice.

“who… … who is this?”

[It doesn't matter. The important thing is that there are people in need and here I have a skill to give.]

Somehow a cheerful voice. infinitely suspicious

However, no matter how far you run away, that voice follows.

[Hahahahaha. You don't have to be scared. I just need clients to use my skills. You don't even need a price!]

“… … Did you say that such a person is the most suspicious?!”

[That's not wrong. But is there any other way to resist my favor?]

The boy was speechless at the refutation of that voice.

[Aren't monsters that easy? Only such an old ax is like this. It's good that even if you swing it once, you won't be able to catch even a common goblin and break it.]

“Poem… … Noisy!”

But it would be right.

[Immediately tomorrow, the monsters will destroy your fields and you, poor fellow, won't have a hard winter.

It's really unfortunate.]

There was nothing to argue with.

[Everyone is really mean-spirited. But I'm different. Technology to help you in trouble! I'm satisfied just by giving it!]

Very suspicious. But for some reason, the boy couldn't make the choice not to listen to that voice.

As if being led, I was walking in the direction I thought I was hearing the voice before I knew it.

[Good judgment.]

As if he knew all too well what the boy would soon make. The voice induced the boy.

and.

What was there was a large axe.

“???? ax?”

[It seems like you like axes. There's just something that's right for you.]

I don't particularly like it. The voice said as the boy grasped the handle as if he were being led by the axe.

[I'll lend it to you.]

What's the point of pretending to be patronizing and then just lending you something like this?

Puzzled, the boy grabbed the ax with both hands and lifted it up.

Unbelievable… … .

“omg?!”

Isn't it soaring high with black flames on the axe?

Roaring! The fierce heat rises higher than the trees.

“Aaaaaaaaagh!”

The flames died out when the frightened boy missed the sack and hit his butt.

[This explanation is late. I'm sorry.]

But still, the voice that hesitantly laughed, as if he was enjoying the reaction.

But now the boy can't afford to point it out.

“what… … what is this… …

[It is a simple magic tool. It's not artifact-level performance, but it's quite usable.]

Even an inexperienced person like a boy can lightly slay monsters by simply holding it.

[With this, you will be able to achieve what you want wonderfully. ruler… … I ask you one last time. Will you accept my favor? Wouldn't you like to take it?]

The boy blankly looked at the ax he had missed.

It's suspicious, but with that, you can protect the field without relying on adults.

But if you refuse... … .

[If you refuse, I'll just take it back. It's useless even if you try to steal it.]

Finally, the boy took it again without a word.

It was clear without having to say it verbally.

[Excellent. It's a great choice.]

The voice said as if it were genuinely pleased.

After that, as the voice said, it was so easy to achieve the goal.

It was enough just to run to the monster's lair and wield it.

With just a few swings, pale flames soared many times and wiped out the nests of monsters.

“ha?????? under??????

I was tired, but it was because of the tension.

When the boy put down the magic tool, the voice came again.

[It looks like you used it to your heart's content.

As I wished, the monster's nest was completely wiped out with this.]

And I'll retrieve the magic tool. As soon as he said that, the ax disappeared.

The boy licked his lips with a little regret, but that was as promised.

“… … Are you really not asking for anything?”

[It doesn't matter. Since you've been able to observe quite a few improvements while using it. Above all, someone uses my skills usefully! What else could be more rewarding than this!]

It was still a questionable voice. But the boy was not wary of it.

“thank you… … . I've never seen such a convenient tool.”

[I don't know what to do since you praised me too much. Don't get me wrong.

Magic tools like this are really common.]

“Is that so? am i seeing this for the first time?

Even the villagers never said anything like this.”

[I guess so. Until now, only a select few aristocrats or barons enjoyed this level of technology. ]

These magic tools are the exclusive property of those with power or money. the voice said so.

Hearing that explanation, the boy fell silent as if slightly dissatisfied, and then muttered:

“… … Kill me.”

How great it would be if even a commoner like himself could use this to his heart's content.

“Everyone is petty… …

[It's unfortunate, but that's the reality.]

“That's cowardly... … . When you ask for help, you don't help... …

[iced coffee… … There really is no way to hold back my regret.]

The voice said with a sigh.

[I just need to give… … . But they can't give so easily. Unlike me, they are full of greed.]

[Are you angry? I'd be upset. Of course it would be unfair!]

As if there was nothing to hide anymore, the voice exclaimed without filtering. As if fanning something of the boy's emotions.

The boy, who would have been loud just a moment ago, is still listening as if to let go of his anger.

[Hahahahaha. Apparently, they don't seem to have the heart to end today's work simply with a miraculous experience.]

“… … huh.”

The boy moved his head slowly.

“Magic tools… … need more As long as you have that, you don't have to suffer.”

[of course. And that's okay!

A customer like you is one of my rewards! However.]

However, there is a simple condition.

“condition?”

[It's not difficult. I need more customers. But I can't help but talk like this. So please.

Would you like to introduce the tools I provide to the villagers?]

“It doesn’t matter.”

Rather, the villagers will also welcome it.

“but… … What can I say? no… … Who are you?”

Questions to ask first. However, the Jilmoo boy, who was too suspicious to ask, finally asked the identity of the voice.

[millet… … No, it would be annoying to use that name now. great.

It just happened that there was a perfect name in their record.]

It feels just right.

The voice smirked and introduced himself here.

[Grigori. Please introduce yourself. And let many people know. Unlike the greedy nobles, I can do a lot of skills for you guys!]

Name yourself! Tell us about your skills! The voice shouted as if drunk on something.

[A demon who will give you technical skills and lessons. Spread the word Grigori!]

“Has the demand for magic tools drastically decreased?”

“It looks like that.”

Dia quietly told me about it, saying she had heard it recently.

A while ago, there was a meeting between the lords of the mage towers from other countries.

Dia, who had been there, must have heard the complaints of the other tower owners there.

“It seems that the demand for magic tools to sell has decreased. I was complaining that the number of requests from each Mage Tower also decreased.”

“Hmm… … Are you complaining? What about us?”

“Actually, it seems that there has been a subtle change.”

In short, it means that the proportion of people in each country looking for a wizard has greatly decreased.

“Is that something that will make you cry?”

“It seems that there was even a problem with the supply of magic stones.”

“Aha,”

Certainly, if you don’t supply that much, most towers will lose their livelihood.

All that remains is to enlist nobles who can support them, but that will be difficult.

Of course, in the case of the Ernesia Tower, the situation was similar, but there was no big crisis.

In the first place, the tower's patron was Nago. It's just a bit disappointing even if a crisis like a squeak comes.

“So, don’t make a little profit.”

“I mean.”

It was at the point where we were nodding in agreement.

“Hey there… … top lord? Are you Arerenesia? Have you forgotten me?”

And a faint voice came from that corner.

The girl who was newly selected during the last recruiting process.

Seldin.

“it's okay. I’m watching you, so keep practicing.”

“Hey?????

Although Dia enjoys the luxury of teaching herself, Seldin himself makes a faint sound like a dying rabbit.

That would be too.

“… … I think that would be a bit heavy.”

He is training with more than 10 training tools that limit his body's mana and even give physical load to his body.

“I can't help it. She has a special constitution, so she has to do this much to get her to practice.”

The reason Dia helped Seldin with training even though he wasn't even a formal disciple was simple.

Seldin's talent. The constitution of reading or hearing the nature of all things.

There seems to have been a bit of controversy as to who was in charge of the girl with an extremely rare talent.

They also expressed some disapproval because they were naturally constitutional.

It was concluded that there was a risk if she could not control her constitution.

“Then let me see for myself.”

As a result, at least in the line of laying the groundwork, it seems that Dia takes care of it herself.

Of course, as a newbie, I can't refuse. I wouldn't even want to refuse.

In a sense, a luxury would be a luxury.

“It's still hard! Hard things are hard!”

Seldin is now following Dia's suggested penance while shedding tears.

“Wear it for another half day and meditate.”

“Hey?????

“At the very least, you need the power to control your abilities without relying on tools.”

And in order to develop that kind of mana concentration, rigorous self-mortification would be the best way.

“Then it will be a little lacking.”

I sneaked up on one more training tool.

It's a prize. work hard

“Ah ah ah ah?!”

“cheer up? cheer up.”

When others are practicing, you have to bully them for your own taste.

cheer up. baby boy Will there be a path to Daesung at the end of that hardship?

“I think I’m going to die.”

However, unlike the whining words, seeing that he holds up well, it seems that he has a surprisingly strong spirit, so it should be fine.

Watching the struggling kid, we returned to the topic a little while ago.

“Looking at that story, I guess it's not simply a matter of changing demand'?”

“Actually, there have been some sightings.”

sighting?

“In a village on the border of the kingdom of Damaniel… … They said this.”

Dia said the information.

“… … I no longer have to depend on you. All you need is what Grigori-nim gives you.

… … say.”

“Grigori? Who is that?”

I wonder

It's really embarrassing. How

a former pro

sucks honey
