chapter 30
Episode 30.
I had no intention of continuing this duel for long.
As soon as the duel started, he used telekinesis to tie Potee’s feet.
Before Potee realized his feet weren’t moving of their own accord, I lunged.
And swung the exorcist sword.
“Quaaagh!”
Potee cut off the arm holding the sword. And put the road sword into the coward.
The duel was over in an instant.
Potee was screaming as he clutched the severed part in his hand.
“Thoth, it will be dangerous if you don’t bring a tourniquet or bring someone who can use recovery magic.”
Thoth handed the Har back to me and stopped the bleeding from Potee’s wound. As if this happened often, Thoth had bandages and tourniquets.
The notorious gold mercenary Poti is now a one-armed man. Even if it’s not a mercenary stop, I won’t be able to do mercenary activities in the future because my arm that I used to use was cut off.
“Come on, Haru. Let’s go. Thoth, I’m going. I’ll ask you to take care of it.”
“Okay. Don’t worry, there won’t be any reprimand for Port-E cutting off his arm, as he was unilaterally at fault this time.”
“yes.”
I put Haar back in my arms and headed for City Hall. It was to get a permit.
Hearing the advice from City Hall to raise a silver wolf, he obtained a permit.
And headed to the sky road inn.
“Wait, do I have to tell you that embarrassing thing?”
Come to think of it, it was necessary to say the password to enter the skyway.
It’s a crap thing I don’t want to do.
On the way to the Sky Road Inn, I wanted to meet Number 1, the gangster number 1, again.
at that time.
“…!”
A man with an unusual hairstyle who is surprised to see me. He was the person I had just been hoping for.
“Uh… Number One?”
“Oh, long time no see.”
Number-Wan saw me and tried to back away, but I caught Number-Wan faster than that.
“Number-Wan, you have work to do.”
“I’m sorry, but…”
I took 1 gold out of my reward pocket and put it in Numberwan’s hand.
Number Wan has changed from the facial expression.
“Please do anything.”
“I have something to do at the inn on the sky road, but I really don’t want to tell you the password, so please ask me.”
“That’s enough, what a chewing gum!”
Thanks to Numberwan, I was able to enter the Skyway Inn again without embarrassment.
There was still a person who covered his entire body with a robe.
“You are here again. I’ve been hearing a lot lately. You became a gold mercenary.”
“Ohh···.”
Rob’s person apparently sold information separately.
I never thought you would find out my information so quickly.
“So what business did you come to today?”
“Well, I found a house on the side of the valley.”
“Ah, is that what you mean?”
A troubled voice.
“The house is like a headache for us. It’s a house built for tourism in the valley.”
“It must have failed because there are a lot of monsters nearby.”
“Yes, that’s right. Even if you think of hiring someone else, the labor cost will be higher. It was a business that had to be abandoned.”
We need to get to the point.
“Then how much is that house worth?”
The house itself was nice. Except that the surroundings are dangerous.
Rob’s man started writing something on a piece of paper. It seemed that he was calculating the price of the house.
“Ah, this much?”
handed me the paper.
The price of the house was much cheaper than I thought, so I was able to purchase it lightly with the funds I had.
“Then I will buy this house.”
“If you do, I’d appreciate it, but…”
A man in a robe who was speechless.
“At least I should explain this.”
“Are there other problems?”
Is there a problem big enough to make you hesitate to sell it? Or is there another reason why it’s cheap?
“This is the biggest reason I quit the tourism industry.”
“Isn’t the biggest reason why there are so many monsters?”
“That’s true, but while I was settling down in the tourism business, something else settled down nearby.”
What the hell is going on?
“Ogre family.”
“yes···?”
“We are a family of three ogres.”
The first thing I thought was disappointing. It was the degraded ogre who got tired of it in the ruins.
Even a normal ogre wouldn’t be a big problem for me.
“Just sign a contract.”
“It means ogre. Aren’t you worried?”
“If you’re that worried, please submit a request to the mercenary guild. Catch some ogres.”
“Kuhmm… that’s expensive…”
The man in the robe suddenly stopped talking.
“Oh, whatever, I’ll take care of it. Do you have a contract?”
“Hey, it doesn’t matter. Even if you later say that you can’t live because of the ogre, you can’t get a refund.”
“Ah, you don’t have to worry.”
On the fourth day after coming to the free city that I had been begging for so long, I got a house.
“By the way, would you be able to get the remaining inn money back?”
Probably not. I should have thought a little deeper and paid.
“Let’s not regret it. It’s because I bought a house quickly anyway. That’s a good thing.”
First of all, before going home, I needed to buy several things.
“I have to buy some of Haru’s… I have to buy some food… I have to buy some furniture.”
Haru’s things are, first of all, a leash and snacks. They say it doesn’t matter if I share my food with them.
Next, food that is easy to eat would be fine.
As for the remaining furniture…
“I can’t think of anything I really need.”
The house had all the furniture you could possibly need. It was not necessary to live.
“I’ll have to buy a sofa, though.”
The sofa will be full of dust.
Heading to the mall, I simply bought what I needed.
And went into the furniture store. The sofa I liked was quite large.
It was difficult to carry around.
“Can the store move this?”
“Yes, of course you can! But there is a delivery fee.”
“The delivery fee is okay. Then, please go to the house in the valley.”
“yes···?”
The employee abruptly stopped acting. Acting as if you heard something you shouldn’t have heard.
“That, the one on the valley side.”
“hahahahaha, sir, this is a funny joke. Could it be that you live there or are you kidding me like that?”
“Yes, I have decided to live there from today.”
“You’re kidding… aren’t you?”
I haven’t made a single joke so far, so why is this waiter misunderstood?
“yes.”
“Then it is unreasonable to move it. There are many monsters there, so delivery is not possible.”
I expected too. It could be said that this was a natural result.
At least, I was wondering if I was going to ask.
“That’s too bad.”
“By the way… do you really live there?”
“no.”
“Yeah, you were joking.”
“I am going to live there from today. I am not living yet.”
Since I couldn’t buy anything I wanted, I decided to just go home.
The house in the valley was far from the free city I had been asking for, and it was a space where no one came, so it was very quiet.
That was good. The only sounds that could be heard were the sound of flowing valley water or the howling of monsters.
I went home and lit a candle.
“From now on, this is my home!”
It was dark, so I couldn’t see the inside of the house very well. The small candle had a clear limit to lighting the room.
I set the haar in my arms down to the floor.
It must have been very uncomfortable for a long time. As soon as I landed on the floor, I started running all over the room.
“I said I should take her for a walk every day.”
He said that it is difficult to raise a species called the Silver Wolf with a lot of activity at home.
It was said that it is better to raise it outside after completing education so that it does not attack people.
“Besides, they don’t leave the group. You don’t have to worry about leaving the house.”
I’ll have to eat rice first.
My stomach is fluctuating, perhaps because I ate a simple lunch because of my mission.
“hmm···.”
Looking at the food ingredients I bought, I realized one thing.
“I don’t know how to cook.”
Foolishly I overlooked that. Why did I think I knew how to cook?
I thought that if there were only ingredients, what would come out was food.
“I should just eat preserved food.”
It can be the result of wasting time trying to cook for nothing.
I just want to try cooking when I’m moderately hungry.
“The stomach will be a bit less full, though.”
I decided to satisfy my hunger with dried meat and bread. Cut the dried meat in half and threw it to Har.
Haru, whose nose was hit by the flying dried meat, but soon gobbled up the dried meat that fell to the floor.
“Jjasik, you’re eating well.”
I ate bread and beef jerky alternately, so it was better than I thought.
Rather than the meal eaten at the ruins.
“I thought I was crazy because I only ate bread every day in the real ruins.”
After eating, I went to my room to sleep.
I thought of a dusty room, but no.
I touched the bed and ran my index finger around the area. Dust does not come out.
“Does it look new?”
Apparently, Rob’s person ordered it ahead of time.
I lay down on the bed with a more comfortable mind. It was cozy.
“Own a house at 15…”
It’s a long time. It’s a cheap house, but it’s so good.
Anyway, I hear a squeaking sound from outside the door. will do
“I remember when I was little.”
I remember holding my knees in the corner of the room and crying because I was scared of being alone.
Haru will be the same.
I opened the door and let Har into the room.
“When I was crying like that, Tessiar’s mother used to comfort me.”
I closed the door and lay back on the bed. The surroundings were quiet. It is a quiet night without even hearing the howling of monsters.
My eyes closed and I fell asleep.
and the next morning.
I woke up to the feeling of wetness on my cheek. it was har
For some reason, Haru was licking my cheek.
“Ugh… the smell.”
The smell of the beast’s breath from where Haru licked it. I’ll have to brush my teeth in the future.
woke up in bed Haru jumped off the bed, which was higher than his height, as if he was not afraid.
And stood in front and scratched the door. As if to open the door quickly.
“Yes, yes, okay. Can you open the door?”
Opened the door. And in the light, I was able to check the house once more.
“I said I’m coming, I’ve cleaned everything.”
I thought only the bedroom was cleaned, but there was not a single speck of dust left anywhere else.
Rob’s person seemed to be a better person than I thought.
It’s when you see that it handles everything early so that consumers don’t feel uncomfortable.
“Then, from breakfast…”
Shall we make it?
No, I’m a little hungry.
There is no time to make breakfast.
“Harya, you should eat dried meat.”
I threw the dried meat to Har. This time Haru took the dried meat into his mouth.
I applauded and praised Har.
“I need to eat some bread.”
The meat dried in the morning is heavy and greasy.
And I thought of what I should do.
“I’m going to put up a fence so Ou’s family and monsters can’t easily approach.”
Thinking about this, I began to think that it would be nice to have a wizard who knows.
“It would be nice to just do something like silence magic or alert magic.”
I don’t think those fussy mages would use magic for something like this.
“Eh, what can I do? i have to do it with my own hands Haruya, let’s go out when we’re done eating.”
Haru glared at me while chewing on the dried meat. As if you can’t see he’s still eating.
“Okay, let’s eat quickly and go out to buy ingredients.”
The day started by watching Haru eat.
