A Chronicle of Life in a Different World

Returning from the city of Lemona to the city of Speranza, the night when four days passed.

It was Sarah, who was sleepless, who noticed the approaching of "them.”

"... that? Some kind of heat source is coming... hmm... hmm? One, two, three..."

Reus, who was also on guard duty and just like Sarah, slowly stood up to Sarah's words. And when he took charge of the "Dragon Slash" standing next to him, he looked around the town of Speranza illuminated by the full moon light.

"What is the direction and the exact number?

"Nh... three from the north, five from the west... ten from the south... or more?

"... what?

Reus frowned at Sarah's words.

It is no exaggeration to say that the recent town of Speranza is peaceful, including around it, and it is rare for monsters to come to the town.

Still, it is not strange if it is about one or two, but it is strange to say that multiple monsters are approaching from multiple directions.

Regarding the town of Lemona, Collard shares information with Calvin and Dwarves, Laval Waste City workers, and adventurers.

At night he rested in the “fort” in the center of the town of Speranza and was as vigilant as he was when he began to develop the town, so as soon as the Reurus started to move, the people around him reacted.

"Looks like an enemy... it's a nuisance to come late at night like this."

Collard sighs and directs those who are sleepless to take action. Workers who can't fight are already asleep, but adventurers wake up as a precaution.

"What do you want to do? Shall we get out?

"Hmm...."

Reurus begged Kohllard for directions, and Kohllard drank a sip of water to wake him up and put his thoughts together.

"I will leave the southern flock to you for now. We'll go west, Calvin and the others north. But I don't mind if I show the monster how to escape before it's destroyed."

"You have to stay as far away from this town as possible. Can I leave you to the others until we get there?

"Hmm... well, we have more dwarves than our opponents. It doesn't matter. I'll ring the bell if anything happens, so I'd like you to hurry back then."

"Okay."

After hearing Collard's instructions, Reurus ran away with Eliza and the others. Reurus may be on his way alone, but Eliza and the others decided it would be better if we borrowed their help in a short time.

If you rush through the strengths, you'll reach the southern side of the town of Speranza in less than a minute. As the momentum jumped, Reus landed on the earthen walls surrounding the town of Speranza.

"The monsters... don't even let Sarah find them."

The town of Speranza is surrounded by logging, with more than a hundred meters of flat land. As a result, there were few places where monsters could hide, and if the sight was secured by the full moon light, we could find the monster without relying on Sarah.

More than ten magic dogs (carnets) appeared in Reurus' sight. Although he rushed to the town of Speranza on a flat land where the opening was proceeding, he stopped looking at the empty moat and the earthen walls as if confused.

When the depth of the empty moat and the height of the earth wall are combined, it is nearly four meters. Even the magic dog couldn't jump over it, and he was roaring in front of the empty moat.

"If I heard that there were more than ten, I'd be alert to the carnet herd....."

"Are you baking? Are you baking?

"If you bake it, the fur will be worn out."

"... one, one... gauge..."

Eliza and the others exchanged words with an ecstatic face. Neddy was the only one who heard the dog roar and whispered something.

"Sarah, what about the other heat sources?

"Hmm... that's it for now... right?

That said, Reurus also explored the magic, but he didn't feel any strong magic. Still, he tilted his neck unanswered.

(This dog monster acts in a swarm, so it's no surprise that he came all of a sudden... was there such a large swarm near the town?

Or has it moved from another place?

Reurus thought for a few seconds, but stopped thinking immediately. Because now it's better to take out the enemy in front of you than to think about it.

(Anyway, Collard and the others may be stronger monsters...)

There will be no problem if a few monsters come at us, but it is possible to struggle if it is a high ranking monster such as Kimira or Griffon.

Reus, who decided so, grasped the pattern of the "Dragon Slasher" and jumped while being careful not to break the earth wall.

"Gahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

And I slashed it into a swarm of demon dogs. When he shakes down the big sword toward the center of the herd and takes down one, he lands and slashes the sword sideways, cutting off three more.

Huh!?

The dogs, whose four companions were slaughtered in an instant, instantly kicked the ground and distanced themselves from Reurus, raising their shocking voices. However, even though the distance was open, Reus once again slashed the Dragon Slasher, and released a magic blade to cut off three more magic dogs.

Even though "Dragon Slash" was not touched, the magic dogs who remained after the companions were mutilated were upset. Still, it was flying towards the nearest Reus at once.

"SHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"

Like a full swing of a bat, Reus wiped it out with a "Dragon Slash".

"Okay, next!

While the heavy and wet “falling sound” sounds, Reurus confirms that he has finished taking out the swarm of Magic Dogs and then jumps over the earthen walls using "Reinforcements" to return to the town. And he ran away quickly. The demolition prioritized killing other monsters later.

Eliza and the others, who had detected a lot of heat sources, laughed bitterly at the light of the match and quickly ran after Reurus' back.

The fleeing Reurus arrived on the west side of the town of Speranza. Next to the south, Sarah ran because she had detected many heat sources, but just like the Reurus earlier, she found Collard standing on the earth wall.

There are about five dwarfs around Kohllard with hatchets and crossbows, but the fighting hasn't started and they can't hear the noise.

"Mr. Collard! Enemy!?

"This way."

Collard, who was looking out of town, said so without losing sight, but his voice sounded suspicious. While wondering, Reurus stood on the earth wall and found the monster and raised his eyebrows.

"... is that Epel?"

There were five horny rabbits. Because I can't jump any more than a Magic Dog, I'm squinting in front of an empty moat and dirt wall.

It would have been a hassle to be attacked by a gate leading to the interior of the town of Speranza, but he doesn't seem to have that kind of intelligence.

"How was the south side?

"Dog... it was a herd of carnets. I've finished everything."

As Reus reported, Eliza and the others climbed the earthen walls. And when you look at the five horny rabbits, each of them changes its expression.

"... not Epel."

Reurus' night snack is over there.

"I need to recover the carnet herd just now....."

"... pyong pyong"

If there were any emotions in common with Eliza's expressions, it would be awkward. Neddy's the only one.

"We need to get rid of this... for now, we need Calvin and the others on the north side."

Collard leaned his neck as if he didn't fall into his heart, but he instructed Reurus and the others to go to another place. As soon as Leurus heard of it, he jumped off the earthen wall and headed north of the town of Speranza.

Grandma!

"Oh, Reurus."

On the north side of town were Dwarves who made Calvin their leader. It seems that the battle was over here, and Calvin, who noticed Reurus, pointed outside the town.

"I had three sitnams, but how were you?

The crossbow is in Calvin's hand. Apparently, he didn't try a melee battle like Reurus, but he kept his distance.

"This was Carne, and Mr. Collard was Epel."

"What is it? There's nothing but fish everywhere."

Hearing the words of Reurus, Calvin frowns on grandeur and tells him to throw up. But even with Reurus, I fully understood Calvin's reaction.

(When I think about what's coming out, it's just low-level monsters... I thought it was something because multiple heat sources approached from multiple directions at the same time...)

Not recently, but it wasn't so uncommon to start exploring the town of Speranza. However, Reurus raised his eyebrows with discomfort.

(Even though Eliza is here, the inferior monster is approaching... is he being manipulated in a timing? Or are there some powerful monsters that we need to escape from? It's just a coincidence?

Was it manipulated by “something” that would be in the town of Lemona, or was there another cause? Given the recent decline in monsters, the former is likely, but we cannot discard the possibility of coincidence altogether.

No matter how much you think about it, you won't be able to prove it, and the Reus will each retrieve the monsters they took down before returning to the center of the town of Speranza. Then there were the rest of the dwarf and the adventurers who remained to escort the workers, and Reurus exhaled relieved by their intact return.

"Hmm... the number of people is not decreasing or increasing. Is it good to think of it as just a night raid..."

Collard, who has returned to the Fort, counts the numbers and confirms that there is no overcrowding. There was no sign of any problems while the Reurus were away, and the workers seemed calm and waiting.

"It's been a long time since the monsters attacked me on this scale, but I find anything suspicious when I come here in this situation."

"That's right... if the words make sense, it's different, but I can't help asking why I attacked a junior monster. I'm in trouble...."

"But nobody got hurt, so I finished... and after a long time, I was able to get the material for the monster..."

It was the moment Reurus said so. Sarah suddenly shouted as she tried to cook the dog's meat.

"Ah... are you here again?

That's how Sarah looks south of town. Reurus faces with Collard and looks south at the town of Speranza so that Sarah can catch him.

Goaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Then there was a monster roaring in support of Sarah's remarks - Reurus rushed out instantly.
