A Chronicle of Life in a Different World

"... sorry for the inconvenience"

"No, I can't help it with the Cars. Instead, I survived."

Reurus was carried by Gilba and returned to the abandoned city of Madalo. Eliza walks behind her worried about Reurus, as her suicide bombing of "Chant" causes her to suffer more minor injuries than Reurus.

Hikuidori - apparently called Cars, but the first one is defeated by Reurus and the second one is defeated by Gilba. Not all of the threats to the abandoned city of Madalo have been resolved, but they will calm down a bit.

Regarding the body of Hikudri, the adventurers of the Waste City of Madalo replaced us in retrieving it, so Reurus returned to the Waste City one step ahead of the cure.

"But I wonder why Cars is in this country... only in La Paris."

"Does Gilba know anything about that bird?

Gilba walks with Reurus on her back, but leans her neck suspiciously. Reurus answered a big chorus of pain from the whole body by releasing the "caloric release", but asked while enduring it.

"Yeah, I told you I've been out of the country a couple of times. I ran into him at that time... I couldn't kill him with a single blow because he wasn't wearing a flame this time, but if he was wearing a flame, it would have been a nuisance."

"Ha ha... the one I fought was wrapped in flames... I'm going to crush it with dirt and sand, Feint... no, I've been attacked so many times that I was as strong an enemy as Kimira..."

"That's... good to know you're safe."

Gilba is carrying Reurus, but her hands are shining white. It is a healing magic light, treating the arm of Reurus, who suffered a huge burn while carrying it.

Apparently, Gilba can use not only auxiliary magic, but also healing magic, and Reurus' arm gradually blocks the burn.

My "contract" with Eliza has also increased my ability to heal myself, and I feel comfortable every time I follow time. However, the healing magic didn't seem to have a dramatic healing effect.

(Previously, the wound healed quickly... isn't it different from the cut and burn? Or are the terms different?

When I signed the contract with Eliza, the bone wound healed in about ten seconds. But this time, it will take too long to recover, whether it is too broad, or whether it is a priority to recover the painful internal organs from a direct fire ball strike.

"Mr. Reurus! Eliza!"

Welner rushed over as he dived through the gates of the abandoned city of Madalo and walked down the avenue. Perhaps he was in charge of the whole town. Gilba's expression was distorted with regret when she saw Reurus and Eliza's bloody face.

"... I'm sorry I can't help you."

"No... I would have died if I hadn't succeeded. I almost died too....."

If there were two Hikuidori, I would have told you from the beginning, but I don't think Werner knew either. Because the first one was intact compared to the second one, and the magic was abundant.

"... who are you?

Welner's gaze on Reurus and Eliza turned towards Zilba. There was a strong sense of vigilance in the line of sight, and Reurus smiled bitterly as he tried to get away with the painful body.

In a closed environment like Madaro Waste City, you must be alert to strangers. There is no spiritual church in the town, and I am watching Gilba with a necklace that symbolizes the great spirits.

"Jilba the Spirit. I know a guy who took down a second bird."

"That monster wasn't alone!? But is that so....."

Werner was surprised to hear that Hikuidori was not the only one.

Nevertheless, Werner soothed his expression when he heard that he had defeated the second Hikuidori, a friend of Reurus.

"Thank you. Thank you."

Werner lowers his head like that. Dario would complain grandly, but I didn't think it would make sense not to thank the benefactor.

"Don't worry about it. I was thinking of visiting Reurus and Eliza, and I just happened to see Eliza's magic and run."

"Really...."

Reurus nods firmly to Welner who looks at him with a genuine look.

"This guy's fine. I'm a Spirit, but I know a lot about that bird as an“ individual ”in the abandoned city of Laval... Let me know which parts sell at what price."

It was a prey that was defeated at the risk of life. Even if I gave everything to Zilba about the second Hikuidori, the first reward was a Reurus I wanted to receive. Of course, I intend to thank Gilba separately.

Even though I was taken care of during the trip, I was saved this time. Gilba would tell me not to worry about it, but I can't throw it away as a revulsion.

(If we can get back to the abandoned city of Laval alive, we can donate to the church again.....)

Gilba may be thankful to herself, but Gilba would be delighted to donate to the church. You can give the children of the church monster meat or buy clothes.

"Oh, by the way...."

With that in mind, Zilba smiled gently at Werner.

"Did you say Werner? You... you're not a Gregorian, are you?

"... yes?

(If it wasn't for this, I'd be a really good person....)

It was a revus that I had to think of.

Reurus, transported to a restaurant in the abandoned city of Madalo, was being treated by Gilba while sitting in a chair.

"Reurus... are you sure you're okay? Doesn't it hurt? Are you going to let him die?

"It hurts, but I won't die, so calm down. And you're covered in blood, so wipe your body and get dressed."

While Gilba cures Reurus's arms with healing magic, Eliza whispers worrying as she whispers around. Reus smiled bitterly and told her to change first, but Eliza nodded stubbornly.

"But I don't know what happens while I'm away...."

That's how Eliza looks at the wounds Reurus has suffered. Eliza's body was also damaged by the suicide bombing of "Chant", but she has already healed completely by exerting the self-healing power of the bloodsucking species.

Still, it doesn't even disappear to the blood that has been shed, and when I see my whole body dyed with dust moving around the Reurus, I think that people who don't know anything are wandering around with ghosts or zombies.

"Just get dressed. My clothes are worn out, and I'll tear them apart and the stones will fall."

"A poor body with no place for anyone to get caught!?

Reurus pointed out that Eliza shouted with her face bright red. However, Reurus' words could have materialized, so he began to move into the room he rented with his face blushed.

You're admired.

"I'm just worried... if it's him, I can't help it."

Gilba looked at Reurus and Eliza with a smiling face, but as a Reurus, she had no choice but to answer.

Reurus also lost his parents, but his feelings for his family weren't so strong because the "contents” were so old. Before deepening the bond, I had a feeling of mourning for the parents killed by the monster, but I barely spoke to each other.

But not in the case of Eliza. Even if they knew it was a bloodsucking species, they killed all the families they had with them, even if they were chased home.

As a result, Eliza is extremely afraid of losing someone close to her. Especially in the case of Reurus, Eliza didn't care if it was a bloodsucking species, so she signed the contract. “Thoughts” will be strong.

"So, Mr. Gilba, I'd like to hear more about the bird...."

I took down two of them, but there's no guarantee it'll be the last. Unlike Bears and Wing Dragons, there's no information, so it's only natural to hear from people you know.

Werner, who joined us on the way, is about to take a note on a coarse-eyed piece of paper to report to the union president of Madalo Waste City.

"The monster is a monster called Cars, and the rank is intermediate. It is a powerful monster that uses flame magic and auxiliary magic, and can be counted as intermediate or higher if it is an individual over time."

(Maybe I was the middle-ranking one I defeated... and if it was the middle-ranking one, it would be a class scam.)

Reurus murmured inside after hearing Gilba's explanation. I've never fought a monster so experienced in battle before, but while I was fighting, I was held back many times.

Rather, if “that” was the standard for hikuidori, it would make it impossible to imagine how strong mature individuals are.

"It is rare as a monster, and it often acts in multiple ways like a carnet. You may be alone, but you may have the habit of forming a herd with your family to protect yourself from external enemies."

Carnet - A dog monster whose Reurus has been attacked before. At that time, it was attacked by three animals, but it would not be fashionable to think that multiple Hikuidori would attack at the same time.

"The materials that sell at a high price are feathers, leather, and tocaca. Feathers and leather are highly fire-resistant, and Tosaca stores magic and becomes a material for magic potions. The rest is sturdy around the toenails, so it should have sold as a protective material."

I was safe wearing my own flame. Both feathers and leather appear to have high fire-resistance performance, and Reurus jumps up one eyebrow as if it were intriguing.

"By the way, how much can you sell?

"The approximate price is around 2,000 yuan for the whole body feathers, 500 yuan for the leather, and 1,500 yuan for the tosaca. The crusade reward is about 4,000 yuan."

Gilba adds that the nail is 300 yuan, by the way.

A total of 83,000 yuan is sold for slaughter rewards and materials - in Japanese yen, it seems to be about 830,000 yen. It's a little cheaper than Kimira, but it's still plenty of money.

(Is that it? But considering my life, I feel like it's chaotic and cheap....)

Kill three or four of them and you'll get your house loan back, but that's just futile. In fact, Reurus was seriously injured and many of his equipment was useless.

The leather armor that was protecting the torso was scattered, and the nails were burned, reducing its strength. Considering the cost of renewing them, it is not a deficit, but it will be considerably reduced.

"I have defeated the monster of purpose, and I wonder if I can return to the abandoned city of Laval by fulfilling my request...."

"When you get back, the abandoned city of Madalo will disappear from the map... but as the same adventurer, I can't tell you to risk it."

The Waste City of Madalo decided to send a rescue request to the Waste City of Laval because of the Hikkudri. The Hikudri was defeated by Zilba, but as long as Reurus is defeating another one, I can't be sure there's no one else.

Not only that, the bears wander around, and Reurus has not encountered it, but there are monsters called Winged Dragons. In Madalo Waste City, where the main forces are leaving the front line, we will not be able to compete at all.

"I also got a request from the church in Madalo. Since anxiety spreads to the general followers as it stands, I was told to do something about the disturbance....."

Apparently Gilba was visiting Madalo for similar reasons. Reurus didn't know if it was true, but he wouldn't have any reason to lie.

"Didn't Madalo spiritualists and spiritual teachers try to solve this on their own? Or have Madalo take the soldiers out...."

Gilba looks strange, though it is a revulsion to check.

"Spiritualism, unlike Gregorian shit, is based on the doctrine of giving thanks to spirits and great spirits and feeding them every day. There are few human believers who can fight monsters, and it is best to consult with soldiers."

(But the Spirit “exception” is in front of me....)

I secretly looked at Werner and he looked at Jilba with a silly face saying, "What is this guy talking about?"

Gilba is the only exception to taking down intermediate monsters with a single blow, but seeing Gilba makes it look like other Spirits can't fight.

There was a possibility that Mid-level Adventurer Class talent would actually exist, just because they could not compete with Zimbabwe. I was afraid to ask for more details, so I didn't ask Reurus.

"That's why I've been called to churches everywhere, but this time it's going to be hard to solve."

Really?

It seems like Zilba would have cleared everything if she had to storm it alone, but that's not what Zilba thought.

"Yeah... it's hard to figure out what's causing the monsters to go wild just because the place is there. If every middle-ranking monster is mannered, we can handle it, but considering the danger of multiple attacks by Cars, it's also difficult to investigate."

"... but Mr. Gilba?

If Zilba had just killed Hikuidori in a single blow, he would have killed him instantly, even if Hikuidori had attacked him in units of ten. That was the thought of Reurus, but Gilba shook her head sideways with a bitter smile.

"Something seems to be wrong, but I'm not a big deal. As far as I can tell, it will be difficult for Ms. Reurus to win an unharmed battle against Cars. I don't think I'm going to lose, but I need to be prepared for some injury."

(Still, you don't think you'll lose...)

Swallow such words, Reurus shakes his head. If Reurus defeats Hikuidori, Gilba won't be able to win unharmed. In that case, it seemed that the risk of this request had increased at once.

"For the record, are there any soldiers coming out of Madalo?

If that's the case, I want a well-trained soldier to do his best. I am not advanced, but in view of the current situation where there are several intermediate monsters rampant, it seems that it would be good to deploy.

"Ah... Mr. Reurus, that's a little..."

It was Werner who responded to Reurus' words. She is scratching her cheeks with a vague smile that cannot be called a bitter smile.

"I know the role of the abandoned city, but this time it's too late, right? If that bird's flame magic gets shot down, there's going to be a hole in the walls....."

"Yeah, I'm sure it'll open. But when we move the army and defeat the monster, we have another problem."

"Problem?"

Is that a problem that no one can resist in the name of budget? However, we know that the city we live in will be damaged, and Reus wonders what it would be like not to fight because of the budget.

"From this abandoned city of Madalo to the south-east, there is the volcano Veos. There is also a Fire Dragon, which has become a non-combatant area with two neighboring countries. As far as tacit understanding is concerned, if you move the“ soldier ”and defeat the monster..."

…………

Apparently, there was a more dangerous problem than the budget. Werner shrugs his shoulders as Reurus loses his words.

"If we're adventurers... well, you can approach the mountain at your own risk. He'll die in the middle of nowhere."

"... how do you send a good soldier as an adventurer?

"If you do that, other countries will start doing the same. And if we make a scene, we'll have even bigger problems."

Is there anything more troubling than a struggle between nations? Werner looked at Reurus with such a feverish feeling, without saying that he agreed with him.

"The Fire Dragon...."

"Yeah, okay, okay. I knew I couldn't use the help of a soldier, and I knew I was in a terrible danger zone."

There are soldiers in Madalo, but they are self-defense. If this doesn't happen, the abandoned city of Madalo won't really work.

And even in such a situation, it seems that the Fire Dragon is scared and cannot move any further than necessary.

"... Fire Dragon is so strong?

I saw half the interest, half the scary stuff, half the revulsion asking. Then Gilba answered with her true face.

"Adult Class Dragon is the earliest disaster in the form of a monster. Depending on your personality, if you're going to fight, you'll need to challenge it with all your might."

"... Mr. Gilba, can't you win?

"Once every ten times, if I can escape alive, I'll be dead..."

I don't even seem to remember running before I can win.

"Fire Dragons will not attack unless they are thoroughly stimulated. However, we need to investigate the cause of the intermediate monsters' outburst in places that may come under attack and address it."

(Isn't this going to piss you off when you go back to Laval City?

We took down the Hikuidori who was asked to rescue us. You don't have to step into any more danger, and it would be smarter to retreat. With Hikudori's Crusade Rewards, the amount of Materials sold, and the reward for completing the request, you should be able to pay the house loan.

Reurus looks at Werner and says he's making a traffic jam to risk his life.

He almost died just by defeating one of the Hikuidori. On top of that, it will be impossible to go to a place where firedragons may appear and find out the cause of this disturbance.

But still.

"Mr. Reurus... I'm very sorry to ask you this, but could you help me with a little?

And Zilba said unto me, I have saved my life, and it was not a revus that I could refuse.
