Extra 16: At that time in Tsige ~What happened at summer 1~

TLN: Hey guys, Reigokai here.

Just wanted to tell you guys that I wanted to bring out a second chapter in this one too like before, but due to a project that’s keeping my hands occupied for this week and most likely extending all the way to the other, I couldn’t.

However, I know that this is not enough to sate the thirst, so I will make the next release a Tsuki one too.

Anyways, thanks to my patreons for the support and everyone that’s still sticking with me! Love you all!

Enjoy!

Is it a customer?

Sorry, I am not in the mood to draw today, so I am done.

Eh?

A butcher?

If it is that, there should be a lot of those in the market, but I think they are already closed.

That’s not it?

The bar?

If it is that, you should get to one after turning that street there. You will be walking for a bit, but it should be easy to find.

Meeting someone there or something?

You ask why?

That place, there’s a lot of adventurers and people looking to have jobs done, but that’s a place that people living here go to.

You old men are new in this town, right?

I saw you people entering the Adventurer Guild just a few moments ago, but I have been drawing the faces of people for quite a long time, so I can somewhat tell.

My sister is an adventurer as well after all.

Guiding, you say?

Hm, there’s no need to, you know. It is truly easy to tell where the butcher is after all. Also, I am waiting for my sister here, so if I leave this place, I might worry her. That’s why, I am sorry.

Even if you beg me, it is just troubling…

‘It is different from when you came before and don’t have the confidence’? True, even I as a resident get flustered every now and then, but…

Hah…

Understood.

Then, I will accompany you till we see the store, okay?

Please wait for a bit.

Sorry, Rin-san. I will be leaving for a bit, so can you look after the tools while I am gone? I will return quickly.

Thanks.

Sorry for the wait. Let’s go.

When was the last time you came?

You came here half a year ago huh. Then it is no surprise you would get lost.

It has been incredibly lively lately with buildings being made, moved, and even the gate has been moved twice in half a year.

Even though it took 10 years to do that before. It is amazing.

The butcher and the store’s locations have changed.

The prices haven’t changed since half a year ago, but it seems to be prospering quite a lot.

My sister always spends her money there.

I try to stop her, but she quickly forgets.

But you old men adventurers should do jobs that fit your strength and do it safely, okay?

Don’t misunderstand the increase in security and liveliness, there’s people that die suddenly in the wasteland because of it after all.

Development is good, but the restrictions have gotten looser and there’s people that open the gate just with money.

That’s why, take care, okay?

No way.

I am not intelligent.

I only heard that from my sister.

Eh?

Why do you old men know that my sister is Toa?

Eh, the store is not over there.

Get your hands off me!

What are you doing?!

No!

Someon—Hngh!!

***

“Hurry!!”

“I know! Hey, wouldn’t it be easier to just cut her to pieces?”

“We have to get to the hideout first. It might be more convenient to have her alive. We are not the ones to decide that.”

The men run in the dark alleys.

One of the men was shouldering a jute sack. Inside of it, there’s the young girl they abducted.

Also, they acted on the knowledge that she knows of someone. There’s no doubt it was a planned crime.

The young girl that was drawing portraits close to the Adventurer Guild, Rinon.

She is the little sister of one of the adventurer party members that represent Tsige.

For the people that know this, harming her is unthinkable.

Who knows what kind of grudge they hold towards the sister of Rinon, Toa.

Sadly for them, the details of this won’t come to light and they will be dealt with as petty intruders.

“?!! What, a brat?!”

“You people, what are you planning on doing with Rinon?”

A girl holding a sword not matching her size with a young voice that matched her outer appearance asked this.

“Tch! An acquaintance of yours huh! Oi, erase her!”

“Kill her before it causes a ruckus!!”

It was a group of three men.

They were running through the alley in line, but they were blocked by a blue haired girl.

They didn’t answer the question of the girl, and judging from the conversation, the man at the front judged that she is an acquaintance of Rinon, and confirms with the man at the rear that’s behind the one that’s shouldering the jute sack with Rinon inside.

Receiving the permission to kill.

The man gave his approval in an instant.

“If you hadn’t met us, you wouldn’t have had to die!!”

There was the shine of a blade in the hands of the man.

Without even showing a single bit of hesitation, the man unleashes an attack that contained killing intent at the girl that was still standing there.

“Doesn’t answer, a blade, killing intent… Guilty.”

Who knows if that mutter had reached the ears of the man.

The second man stopped his feet —-cause the comrade at his front had been cut in half vertically.

The figure of the girl was gone.

And just like that, it connected to the second surprise.

“Rinon is a friend.”

The man that is shouldering Rinon turns his head…at the place where the voice came from.
