Chapter 6 – Let’s Rescue the Caravan!
“Won’t you join me in a monster hunt?”
I was suddenly asked this question by Louise-nee-san (24 years old, single) on whouard
Right after the establishment of the Sawatari Company, I was in a deadlock
‘Let’s open the co such an iranted me a vacant lot in Est’s business district, near the city’s plaza I was thankful for that, but…
Now that I think about it, I ran out of funds after buying the prairie schooner
However, the horse was borrowed from Rhod family
Despite that, one could say I was in the red to some extent
I carried the iron-o’s mine to Est, so I earned some money, but, it was just peanuts
Apart fro and hire workers as well
As expected, not even Lyle-sensei, who’s fae it
“Possessing the knowledge and being able to execute it are two different things, you see” – Such was Sensei’s remark
I too had fully realized that since my arrival in this world
Later, I hadafter going to the trouble, it really pained me, since I was unable to take the initiative
Iprice: 1 silver coin each) and detergents (selling price: 1 fragmentary copper coin each), like hot cakes, thanks to their rarity and cheapness, but, because h
As for the boreement between me and the Royal Family of Silesia, so I couldn’t sell them to other merchants or commoners
I also considered iunpowder for coe
Being at the end of o for the tiested this
“Shouldn’t it be fine for you to ation requests? I usually take up escort jobs, so I can make money anytime”
Uwa, Louise-onee-san, you’re too generous
To think she would offer estion like this with such a favorable condition
“In exchange, I’ll take the monsters’ meat and pelts”
Uwaa, the usual Louise is back
Most likely, she only wants to eat their internal organs, rather than protect me
Still, I’estion
Rather than thinking about this and that, it’s better to work for now
I, together with Louise-onee-san and Lyle-sensei, made a party of three and went to the Adventurers’ Guild As we arrived, the situation turned boisterous and hectic
“You’re, are you by any chance adventurers!? This is an urgent request, but, will you please accept it?”
The ed staff member came to us with a serious look and earnest request
“It looks like, a caravan of ht now, there is a garrison heading there, but, we also have received a request for aid The reill be the one given by the feudal lord-sama, so please!”
“Okay, okay, we’ll go there!”
Louise, who’s usually known for o
We don’t kno nuarrison is heading there too, shouldn’t it be fine?
I’ve heard about this city being a peaceful place, but, monsters will appear even here?
Well, isn’t it a good chance for us to deratitude from the earl?
Let’s consider it in a positive way
“This is the worst It looks like the caravan lured a herd ofaway”
Taking a glance at the battle in front of hi toward, Lyle-sensei said this while being disgusted
About 3 karrison and monsters unfolded
More than 50 hu the caravan
The s, ashen ones, ogres?
They were all monsters hich I was familiar from an RPG
I knehat they were fros froze when I saw thewhile killing their enemy
Against the their spears It was clear they were outnumbered
Originally, they should have retreated to this city’s bulwark, but there was probably a reason for why they hadn’t done so
What the caravan was carrying with them, were, as I feared, slaves
Being tied in a roith chains, the slaves were neither able to fully run away nor put up any resistance With noattacked
Some had their heads were split open frores
Others, had their chest pierced through by goblins’ short swords
Having no equipment on them, the slaves immediately fell down
So, finally, the tie and clutched my iron sword
This was a sword I wouldn’t let go of, even if I were to gasp while struggling for my life
The tiht of my fully mastered North Star Ittou-ryuu! (from my correspondence course)
“That’s wrong, Takeru Use the gunpowder, which ee sound, and throw it at theic to you”
A gunpohich ee sound… wai, does sherecently?
Louise, who instructed me, held a soblins nearby
What a fast and accurate headshot!
“Heaven and Earth, I, Lyle Raerutiosu, co, violent wind; and the crudoers, with thy power!”
It was Lyle-sensei’s e spell of which he was proud, the Spiral Howling
As he chanted, Sensei raised his hand overhead in a bit of a Chuuni style
Releasing all his wind, water, and earth-basedaway the horde of ogres
Not just the ene around in the surroundings devoured by the tornado-like things, as a result of their shady adverse effect
It was a fantasy world-like strongest spell Certainly,
Co off a bit with this kid’s toy
I airoup of monsters and threw a fistful of firecrackers at them
Next, I lit another firecracker I had on my person, with theorb’, and threw it at the goblins
Pan pan pan pan! – familiar, parched sounds reverberated
To oblins that received direct blasts, dispersed as a result of their own overreaction
Eh? My items worked better than I had expected?
Even ons
The faht fro thethem cease to move for a while
The garrison also stopped fighting and looked in this direction with dumbfounded faces
They’re just fireworks, you know?
‘Kiii Kiii!’ – Following that, the goblins stepped on the dispersed firecrackers and screah-pitch voices They tu confused anda commotion
Before anyone realized it, Louise switched frooblins, slashi+ng and piercing their chests whilearound
“What are you doing, throw more of them!”
Being scolded by Louise, I threw lit firecrackers one after another at the goblins and ogres in front of me
Even though the crackers didn’t have that much destructive power, the monsters panicked and faltered each time one of the crackers burst
Using that momentum, Louise transferred her blunt sword fro, and killing the enele blow each
It was a very quick, single blow, certain kill
‘swoosh swoosh’ – For some reason, the last part was a short-sword two-style attack
I too wanna becoonist It’s ih, since I have no skills, but well…
I thought I would act cool by at least casting a spell in the end, so I ra my wand, however, the spell wouldn’t even leave a burn on an ogre’s skin
This attack is even more useless than those firecrackers
Could it be that this wand’s power is derived from my mana, which is close to zero?
