After staying in the village for a couple of days, Vincent and the others said they were going back to the wagon full of forest potatoes, which were traded. No, you sold half of it in the northern trading city before you left. The higher the demand for potatoes to the north, the more expensive they sell. Trading soul. It takes about eight days by carriage from this village to the trading city, so it's probably from Tokyo to Ise Jingu. I have to go once in my life. Further north, it seems to be the King's Capital, but it is not Vincent's commercial area until then.

That's why the Vincents who just arrived yesterday evening are supposed to stay in the village until the day after tomorrow. Since it is still a village on the way to development, there is no lodging, and we are staying in a joint lodging with the village chief's house.

Co-Hosts are like dormitories, where unmarried slaves gather to live. It is as big as the village chief's house, and the floor plan is a 5DK bungalow. Four female slaves are currently using the room in pairs. Mr. Vincent has only four women guards, so he wants to use the extra room.

In this village, men and some bachelorette women are required to undergo combat training. It's the village chief's policy. Married women are not compulsory because they have housework and child-rearing.

Because it is a border, there is no need to be strong and troublesome. Especially women have a lot of threats. That's why hours after noon every day are training time. The content varies slightly depending on the day, but it takes about two hours to complete a few sets of "masturbation" and "simulation".

Today and tomorrow, the training will be mixed with adventurers.

"It's an honor for Dantes to train you in the Whirlwind!

Ursula, one of the adventurers, said excitedly, turning red. A whirlwind, maybe two of the village chiefs' old names? Was he actually a pretty famous sold-out adventurer?

"Do you know the village chief?

"No, this is my first time. Most of the time, the old story is getting bigger and bigger.

The village chief answered with a complicated expression that seemed a little unhappy.

"What are you talking about? The" Keith's Labyrinth (Dungeon) Attack ", the" Third Gaza Plains Invasion ", and the" Dolton Defense Battle "are still the stories of veterans! It's an adventurer's dream!

"Uh-huh, I see.

Ursula talks hot, no, hot. Too much momentum to be honest. The village chief is also pulling.

But I thought you were pretty good at it, but you were one of those adventurers, Mayor. I thought you weren't as good as you, because you handled two hand-held battle axes weighing nearly 20kg. It's been more than 10 years since you retired, and you're still talking about grass. How much have you been out of control? Anna and Ursula are still a little over the age of 20. When the village chief retired, he was supposed to be an infant, and he couldn't remember that time. I mean, at least until recently, it was so violent.

Mr. Ursula stares with her sparkling eyes and starts training. Today's participants include my father, 11 villagers, 4 adventurers, the village chief, and me, a total of 17. I'm not officially involved because I'm still small. It's just a child imitating what everybody's training. They pretend to be swords with the right length of bamboo (of unknown type, but also grown in this world) or hang firewood from tree branches. Everyone's smiling gaze is somber. Stop, I'm looking.

My own style of combat has not changed since two years ago. I am participating in the assassin style, saying, "get close and crisp without being noticed", but I also remember how to fight the frontal attack method and think it is not a loss.

I thought it might be cool if I could use a sword!

After a while of pretending, a mock fight begins. Since I'm on a tour, I'll slap the suspended firewood while observing it from the side for a while.

... it's kind of wet. Not because there are adventurers today, but they are slow and weak as usual. Of these, I think the village chief is powerful, but not as powerful as the forest monster.

Yeah, I know. My criteria are strange. The forest monster is the standard. I'm going crazy because I'm dealing with ordinary adventurers who are so unrivalled by their sense of pocket money. This could be a problem in the future. Let's be careful.

"I'm tired! I'm going to play!

I activate my child's privilege, "Whirlpool", and skip training.

"Come back in the evening!

"Ok!

Children are good at these times. Answer the village chief lightly and head towards the field. Of course, to escape to the woods. Now that the adults are training or doing housework, the fields are deserted. Escape is convenient. Practice is the best way to train. Magic Stones also accumulate.

Exploring the surroundings with signs, you catch a few monsters. I hunt around almost every day, but I don't see any decrease at all. Where does it come from? Truly, the big forest is abnormal.

Today, let's change our tastes a little and hunt like we train. The way is simple. We just have to go to the clumsy monster, expose ourselves and fight from the front. A normal 7-year-old can only be described as reckless, but I have planar magic. Yes, you won't be in danger.

What I found nearby was one of the strongest "Big Claw Bears" in the area. It looks like a bear. Except for the forefoot nails, which are nearly 4m long and about 50cm long. When I first saw that nail, I couldn't help thinking it was "Toto." Dad and I used to hunt big nail bears about 3 meters ago, but sometimes we meet more than 4 meters in the woods. That must have been a young bear who had just become independent.

Anyway, it's just right for training. After lightly activating the Reinforcement, I will solve the Skywalk and deliberately make a sound before your eyes. The distance is about 5m.

Looking at the bamboo stick used for training as a sword, no, a sword. Holding the sword in front of the head, the tip points towards the other person's eyes. It's a so-called straight-eyed stance. The swordsmanship of this world, which has only been seen for about seven years, is more familiar with the movements of the swordsmanship and era drama, which have been familiar for more than 20 years.

Big claw bears seem surprised at me coming down suddenly, but in the forest, they expose the joy of getting food in front of humanoid creatures that are only predators. Slowly approaching with your tongue giggling. What I just said is that in this neighborhood, bears without enemies, unlike other monsters who have been hunted, are less alert to first-time creatures. Especially in humanoid organisms that often feed. That's why they're on their way without escape.

"Come on, come on.

Though you may not understand my words, the speeding bear will fly over to eat me. I move slowly to the left and I turn my body a quarter of a turn, hitting a bamboo stick on the right forefoot of a giant nail bear passing by me. Since the bamboo stick is coated with planar magic, it has become quite sturdy instead of nothing.

It wasn't so painful as to break it, but it seemed to be quite painful. The big nail bear stood up with his back legs as he turned his anger into a shout and shook his forelegs up. Long live the costume, but to be clear, there are gaps. I usually finish by stabbing my heart or eyebrows, but I think it's training today, so I dare not stick to that gap.

Swing your legs down almost simultaneously. Obviously faster than the village chief's two hand axes swinging down. I take a half-left step forward and parry the nail with a diagonally tilted bamboo stick.

"Uhhhhh!?"

I thought the timing and angle were slight, but the weight difference is still difficult. I'll be pushed about a meter away. I managed to avoid falling when I stepped on it, but the big claw bear filled the gap.

Now, as if you were going to catch salmon, your left forefoot would go sideways. I tap the forefoot with a bamboo stick while back-stepping. It is not intended to cause damage. Big claw bears alternate between the left and right forelegs, but I fly sideways with the same backstep or without defying the momentum, and keep hitting the forelegs each time. The burning bear also takes a long pose. That's what I'm looking for. Don't miss that gap this time. Fill the gap at once, knock the flash of a sideburn into an empty torso and pull it out behind you.

A real sword would have been a fatal blow. However, no matter how strong the body is and cured by planar magic, after all, it was just a child beating with a bamboo stick. Probably got a crack in Abara, but Big Claw looks back at us with a roar of intimidation. He's still motivated.

But that's the end of today's training. After this, I have to collect magic stones for my routine.

"Thanks for hanging out with me on training. Good job."

An invisible object stretched like a cone from the tip of a bamboo stick, poking between the eyebrows of a claw bear. Without knowing what he did, the bear fell on the spot.

Thought about the issue while cutting open around the chest and removing the magic stone.

"I don't know what weights do. We just have to wait to grow up?

Can you do something with planar magic? Let's think after each other. For now, I'm gathering magic stones for my daily routine.

Now, when do we go next?
