Uncle, the merchant is awake.

It's rude to say that my uncle and I are “uncle merchants"...

"Ugh.................. wow, I... yes! They must have slashed him!... but then... the fairy goddess... oh!...... O fairy goddess! … and thank you for your help"

Uncle, the merchant, when he saw Nia, fell down.

"Yes, yes! Here it is, here it is! When I first met her, she was very different from some uncle who said 'what the hell'. Open your eyes. If I were there, it would be normal to fall asleep like this, not at all!

Nia looks great with her arms around her.

I'm in good shape......

Still, even though you're asking me to say goddess or something, I feel such a shame...

I think I'll be able to peel off my tempered skin soon...... well, let's get you through now...... it's so hard through

"Um... are you okay?

"Oh, you... And I'm sorry. My name is Torcone, and I'm a pedestrian. Thank you for your help this time."

Hold my hands, I'm crying.

Looks like a trafficker after all.

"My name is Grimm. The bandits have been captured, so it's all right now."

"I'll allow you to call me Pixie Near, especially the Fairy Goddess."

Nia felt even more unfortunate...

Lynn, Sithimi, and Hu say not to speak in front of the people.

I'm in trouble when I make a scene.

"Before I lost my mind, I saw you approaching. Did you defeat those bandits by yourself?"

"No, I'm not alone. I'm Tamer, so I asked this slime or owl to help me. Most importantly, this nearer worked hard for me. It was her recovery magic that treated you."

"Again, Dear Nia, thank you for saving my dying place. I will never forget this grace."

"It's nothing... Glad you could help. Well, if you really want to worship me, you can call me" Fairy Goddess "..."

You really liked the name "Fairy Goddess"...

I'm so thankful... why are you making such a bad push for such a shame?

Mr. Torcone doesn't seem to care much...

"Is Lord Grimm Tamer? Why are you here..."

"Actually, I was also helped a while ago by Nia..."

I tell a pre-prepared story...

—— attacked by demons, fled with his life, but fell with all his might.

—— So, Nia helped me, and I was headed to a nearby city.

—— When the demon attacked me, he hit me in the head, and he lost some of his memory.

This story seems to have been taken very seriously by Mr. Torcone.

When I asked Mr. Torcone if he knew I was going to be attacked...

"I think the bandits just happened to have my eyes on me.

I had to rush delivery to the guardian, and he came without an escort.

If you don't make it to the delivery date, you're gonna get caught.

I flew a horse but it was sweet......

If Lord Grimm hadn't come through, I'd be dead for sure. "

Hi, there seems to be a complicated situation...

Still, I can't believe you just can't keep your delivery date and get caught...

Is this the reality of the other world...

Maybe I just happened to get a terrible guardianship job...

From what I've heard further...

A request from the guardian who oversees the city means it's a big deal, he said.

He took some danger with his knowledge.

It would mean I got my hands on high risk high returns......

And lately, the effect of the frequent bandits on this street, or the lack of escorts, seems to be that they left unavoidably to meet deadlines.

He flew a horse and went to the wild house at night, but so far, he managed to get here safely.

Nia, on the contrary, was often frightened that she had been able to get here safely.

I guess it was so stuffed with cutting feathers.

The bandits seemed to be ambushing, and suddenly they came out of the bush and were surrounded.

The horses seemed surprised and rampaged, but they managed to be safe.

Mr. Torcone said he was glad he wasn't slashed to death.

Perhaps the bandits were going to get the whole load, the carriage and the horse.

I asked a lot about the neighborhood at the end of the conversation.

It's a setting called partial amnesia, so I'll deceive you about some things...

Mr. Torcone seems to be living in the city he's headed to.

They say it's a city called "Magne Town" in "Pigseed Borderline Uncle Territory" in "The Kingdom of Kouryud".

"The Kingdom of Kouroud" seems to be a large and quite powerful country.

A small country called the "Principality of Artemina", in the north direction of this street, is said to be the destination of goods purchases.

It seems that the streets that connect the "Kingdom of Kouroud" and the "Duchy of Artemina" that we currently have are places called “inviolable areas” that do not belong to any country.

Does that mean a kind of lawless zone...

Because there are many demons and there is a huge area of demons called the "Forest of the Dead”, they say both countries are at their best with measures to prevent demons from entering.

They have no intention of making this place a territory.

Even if the demons were wiped out, they would not have the flavor to own them because the magic vegetation was thick and new demons would soon occur.

They say there are many places like this on this continent.

“Forest of the Dead” seems to mean my "Great Manatex Forest".

It's a forest dominated by undead, mainly skeletons, and they've been afraid of it for a long time.

Rumor has it that demons rarely come out of the woods and attack, but once they step in, they can't live to go home, and ordinary people don't get in first.

If this story is true, normal people are a little relieved because they won't come into the Great Forest that way.

Hopefully, I don't want to argue with humans...

It is also due to the dangers caused by demons, and it seems that bilateral exchanges are not so frequent.

Still, the pedestrians come and go with rare merchandise for each of them.

However, it seems certain that there is not a lot of traffic originally.

Criminals and others who cannot stay in the country may live as bandits and attack pedestrians.

It's just that until now, there hasn't been much banditry.

Seems like the number of bandits has increased in itself or has become more frequent here recently.

With that, it seems that the escorts are also losing more lives and fewer players themselves.

In the Principality of Artemina and surrounding small groups of countries, there is the 'Adventurer Guild', which until now has been relatively easy to arrange for escorts, he said.

It's just that this time, he didn't show up for the undertaker after days of waiting.

When we headed to buy from Magne Town, it happened that there were adventurers returning to the Principality of Artemina who took it on.

Apparently, there is no 'Adventurer's Guild' in the Kingdom of Kouryud other than the Labyrinth City.

Most importantly, the name is not "Adventurer Guild" but "Attacker Guild"......

I was a little concerned about the shipment, and when I asked him, he said there was no damage at all.

A rushed delivery is like a crossbow. They have fifty sets to match with the arrows.

"If you're a big country, I feel like you could make a crossbow in your own country, why did you buy it from a foreign country?

"I don't know either. Indeed, the Kingdom of Kouroud is a great power, so it should not normally purchase weapons from foreign countries. How hurried the situation must have been. Perhaps it would have been quicker to buy this territory from a neighboring country because it's a periphery."

Mr. Torcone doesn't seem to know the real reason either.

However, the Principality of Artemina seems to have many talented craftsmen who make bows, not just crossbows.

He said he was performance-oriented and could also dare to consider the possibility of purchasing it from the Principality of Artemina.

Either way, it's the guardian's request, so they can't pry deep.

By the way, a crossbow is a device that pulls strings, and they set a short arrow on the pedestal called a bolt, pulling the trigger and firing it.

Because it's small in the bow and easy to aim and stabilize, they say a little training will make it available to anyone.

It doesn't look like a bow used in a Japanese bow.

Luckily, the horse and carriage were safe, so we decided to head to the city while we had the carriage ride with us.

Actually, Mr. Torcone has asked us to escort him with 20 gold coins.

I said I didn't need the money because the city was so close.

However, as a token of gratitude, he was begged to formally ask for it as a job, and he accepted Nia's recommendation.

On the road, I can hear a lot of stories and I think I can gather useful information, so I'd rather pay...

I'm glad Mr. Torcone feels good.

The bandits caught decided to load and carry it with their shipment when handed over to the gatekeeper that they would receive a reward.

The effect of the magic string keeps him quiet, paralyzed all the time.

By the way, the weapons, money, etc. that the bandits were in possession of are usually owned by the crusaders, and they say I can get them.

There was no particular need, so I tried to give it to Mr. Torcone, and he refused.

"Terrible. You saved me. You can't have me. Please, Lord Grimm will take it with you. If you want to redeem it, I'll arrange it in the city. And of course, I'd like to thank you for your help."

I said there was a escort reward, and I didn't need to thank you, but I was begged and reluctantly admitted that I really wanted you to let me.

I don't know what kind of thank you is, but I was wondering if you could treat me to something tasty...

Ten people's leather protective equipment, five pieces, two tomahawks, three daggers, and a coin-packed sachet are loot items.

When asked what would happen to the bandits we caught...

"Bandits are executed or forced to labor as criminal slaves. Those on the bounty are almost executed."

He said he was a criminal slave...

Is there slavery in this world...

Ask...

... Unfortunately, they have slavery.

They say it's not some country, but at least, they have slavery in the 'Kingdom of Kouryud' they're going to be heading to.
