I’m a NEET but When I Went to Hello Work I Got Taken to Another World (LN)

151 Stories Battle on the Border of the Empire, Part 3

Oh, you're welcome.

He finished his guttural battle with Francesca and returned to the village. Looks like a lot of villagers are coming out to see the damage outside the village and the reinforced walls, seeing that things have been completely cleaned up.

He seemed surprised for a moment at us for stepping down near the main entrance to the village, but soon gathered around him and began to thank him orally.

Yet the most popular is Francesca. He stands out most with his flashy, expensive looking armor, and he definitely thought he was the commander of the party, but no one thinks that the only thing he did today was sell me a fight.

Though he also denied it at first sight, he appeared to have been received more or less humble. Well, if you're a commander, you don't have to work.

But I don't water a happy villager, and in front of a lot of people, this guy doesn't shame Francesca if he hasn't contributed a millimeter to saving the village.

"Well, I'm sorry..."

Francesca has apologized around entering the village and falling out of the circle of villagers. About half the villagers went to Francesca.

"I don't want any praise and I'm not fighting, and don't worry about it"

"But the biggest medal of the day is Satti. Well done," said Ann.

"Oh, right. If Satie hadn't noticed the sound of the bell, she'd be through. That's great."

Satti was on my side, and I have Syrah in dark armor on my side, so I didn't have much to speak to. It's not as scary as night, but it has a flair that seems to be killing some people even when they see it in the light of day, and it seems hard to get close.

I didn't have to deal with the villagers and it was easy, but Satie should appreciate it.

"I'm glad it helped at all"

"You knocked down Oak King, and you did a great job"

Francesca also turned to follow.

"It's no big deal what I do because you guys just couldn't take it seriously today"

Look. This is real humility. Well, I'm a little overhumbled, but Satie feels stronger than I do because of her protection.

"Is it really that amazing?

"Satie's a big deal, and she's always very helpful. But if you're serious, we're all gonna have a lot of fighting to do with Satie."

"That's not true! I'm weaker at this party."

I don't know who can beat Satie, but if you compare with fire power, Satie is certainly considerably inferior.

"Wait, wait. If I'm weak in Sati, I...?

"It's hard to get superiority and inferiority with swordsmen and wizards, but if you mean demon opponents, I guess Will and Syrah are next. Third from the bottom at our party."

Think about it favorably. If we fight a few times and compare the results, I wonder if Francesca will be the bottom line. Sometimes it's not compatible with a party of ranged attack subjects like ours, but even if you decide to cut into demons, the ranking is third and best from the bottom.

"You gotta be kidding me."

Isn't this guy licking too many wizards? Haven't you ever seen the Mass Destruction Magic?

Or is our wizard too strong out of common sense? This seems the most likely. If you're a mage of strength about Ellie before you get protection, you'll be confident that you'll easily control it. Even I can do that without magic. Maggie's chanting without a fast chant is very slow.

"Fran is so strong if you fight one-on-one. And Satie. But if you're a demon opponent, you talk about how to defeat them efficiently."

A small group is about the size of today, and assuming that each fought alone, we can destroy it. Will and Syrah are suspicious. Francesca will probably be fine, but it will take some time, and he may not be able to stand the sword by knocking down 200 bodies.

"You can't beat a concubine one-on-one."

"Right. Lilia would win."

The Spirit's Defense and Attack Magic combo is vicious. As much as I stopped Satti from attacking even before I got to the level, it's even more powerful now, of course.

"I think it's about half an hour."

If it's Ellie, it'll be a battle to see which one can take the lead. But there's also a metastasis, so if there's a distance, Francesca won't win.

"I can win"

Tirica would have a better chance of winning if she could use a summons, and I'm sure it would be a way to win something.

"I'm a little unsure."

Ann has proximity skills, and she has defenses, so I feel like she could win there.

"If you do, you'll lose everything."

That's what Satti said at the end to Francesca, who has the look of incredibility. That's convincing when Satie says it.

Everyone has seen the battle of scattered Francesca. If we were to really do it, it would be an extremely unfavourable battle for Francesca, who fights at first sight.

"Don't do it, okay? You guys aren't used to interpersonal fights, so you don't know how to add or subtract them, do you?

Don't let Francesca get hurt today, or I got quite a hiatus. Of course, it took about an air hammer to do the damage, but if I did it again and again, I'd probably get hurt badly one of these days.

"Right. Besides, it doesn't make sense to say we lost."

"Yes, yes. This is how it's important to save innocent people. You've all done a really good job today."

Sometimes the villagers call out as they speak, and children wave from inside the house.

"Look, I'm staying over there today. You've rented out only one lodging in this village, so you can take your time."

Looks like we saw the inn today as we walked in talking. That's what Anne, who was leading the way, told me.

"Ho. That's nice to rent out."

"And a welcome banquet..."

"I don't want that one"

Then I'll say no.

"Nothing. We can all go."

I could have lunch in my room with one person.

"I didn't know when Masaru was going to finish, so I just made arrangements for the inn."

"Hmm. Then we'll just take our meals slow."

I'm really tired today. Alert on the road to the construction work of the village in the morning. To strengthen the walls in this village, the extreme is the bee streak against Francesca. Besides, Ellie also ate an air hammer. It's time for the limit.

"Why don't you take a bath first because I'm gonna ask you to prepare your meal?

A bath? Nice bath.

"Then let me use it slowly. Sati."

"Yes, Master Masal"

The bath heals everything, I think it's heaven in this world.

■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■

"Masaru, this village says alcohol is a specialty!

While we were slowly enjoying the bath, everyone had already started eating in the inn's dining room.

Is alcohol filled with pottery cups given to Ellie a common whiskey or a subspecies thereof in this world?

"Pretty tasty"

Slightly alcoholic, but mellow and easy to drink. It stains my tired body.

"It would. They told me I could take as much as I could, and let's get the roots!

"You'd be pathetic to take it all..."

"What? That's all I've done, and I'll take what I can get."

"Ha ha. Do you like it? There has always been good spring water in this village. The brewery is thriving."

The people in the village who are feeding me seem to think it's a joke, but if you don't stop it, they're really gonna take the root, right?

But water. We also have beautiful water that the Spirit serves. Wouldn't you be able to make about alcohol?

"Lilia, isn't Elf making alcohol?

"Enough to make liqueurs out of the fruit you can take in the woods. Alcohol is mostly imported because we can't get much out of it. No surplus crops in the first place"

The elves are also made in the walls and not very spacious, and although they are cuttlefish just to eat normally, they can't even be turned to alcohol.

"Then can't we make alcohol at home?

There are a growing number of colonization hopefuls, and agricultural land can still afford to be expanded as much as it takes.

"Oh good. Orlando! Hey, over here."

Ellie called in a man who was serving me earlier. If you look closely, you were the one who talked to me about building a wall outside.

"Orlando is the son of the lord of this village."

Yes, Ellie told me. I thought he was a vigilante captain or something because he was giving instructions to the villagers around him.

"Doesn't Lordship mean nobility? Am I supposed to call you that easily?

"A small village lord is no different than a village chief there."

Is that what it is? I can't really grasp the identity system in this world.

By the way, the troublesome event of greeting the lord seems to have ended while I was playing in the bath.

"What is it, Mr. Elizabeth?"

"Bring someone to my village who can make this alcohol."

"I'll let you do that, but your village is..."

"Around the elves of the kingdom."

"Huh? Isn't that too far?"

"I'll pay you right. How about this?

"So much!?

"Give me a good arm instead, will you?

"Yeah, let's recruit the hopeful. And then you need equipment. I wish I could carry it, but it's a lot bigger, and there's a blacksmith who can make it..."

"If it's old or I have extra, I'll buy it for the price. I'll take the transport here."

"Then we'll arrange it."

The story came together in an instant.

"You can have good specialties in our village, too."

Ellie will just want to make sure she has enough to drink herself.

"Right. Let our people learn too. Elves make drinks out of spiritual water. You're gonna have a reputation."

The Elf brand alone is going to sell.

"I thought you worked for free, so you made a good shopping trip."

"You're not wasting my help."

"Yeah. This booze, it's 30 years old. I hope we can make one of these."

30 years? Isn't that something I have to do?

If I can't do something about it, will everything disappear with bubbles, both in this village I helped today and in my territory I worked hard to build during the winter months?

Does saving this village make any difference? Or why don't we save Hilagis one country?

But it's still my first year here. Long way to go.

For now, we have no choice but to act according to the divinity. It makes my booze worse when I think of it too much, and my stomach hurts.

"Right. I wish I could drink like this at any time."

Hopefully in twenty or thirty years.

During my journey I also thought I should focus more on hunting demons, but the empire is so vast. If we work hard, we'll definitely reduce the demons, but we'll only travel half a day and encounter demons once.

I spent the winter driving demons around my village alone, and I still couldn't get rid of them, and I couldn't prevent them from breaking in from somewhere. It wouldn't be realistic for us to try to do something about the demons on the edge of the empire alone.

Eventually, when we met as before, we just knocked him out and headed straight to the fort.

On the road, I could hear more about the adventurers I met in the woods.

After all, the Alliance is sending many adventurers to the region as a countermeasure, which they say is quite effective.

After all, only two villages were destroyed by demons. The damage can be described as minor.

Francesca fitted in with the practice a little bit, but if it wasn't a serious battle, there was no reason to dislike it so much.

Will and Syrah's training went well, and the demons were hunted several times and their experience got there.

Francesca snuggled me through Will's training as promised, but Will and Syrah's battles over the course of the day have gradually led to an increase in armaments for Syrah.

Because of this, Francesca is getting into Will's training. Will was more dominant when he left, but he didn't like it when Satie started losing to Syrah watching him train.

Sounds like my mentoring is bad! and very angry.

The style seemed right for Shiraz to put up a shield and fight against each other, but more than that, the main reason for the difference in avant-garde skills was the acquisition of skills with experience earned on the road, for the magic skills Will took.

But Francesca has no reason to know that.

"... more training"

"What!?

"Good for you, Will. Yeah, as much as I have my training."

I have plenty of time to train because my daily journey generally ends in the morning.

And the first week I left the kingdom. We arrived at Fort Bloomdar, our first destination.
