"... the fault of youth"

"What is it?

At that time, Marika taught me how to take care of weapons.

A few days after I started my adventurer, I was rapidly getting used to life in the village of Lax.

"It's Gacita."

"Oh, that idiot"

I'm not the one who responded.

Marika.

She adds, whenever Gacita's name comes up, 'Stupid,' don't you like him?

"Because Gacita can't help being called an idiot. If only I could give my rating a little more decent......!

"What does that have to do with the" mistake of youth "that I just said?

"Yeah, yeah, that"

The conversation plays well and the village chief embarks on it.

"Dariel knocked down Quest Target twice in a row, didn't he? Looks like that hurt his pride. Have a good pride."

"I did something wrong to him."

Etemorn at first.

Anthracic next.

I didn't take them both down for it, but that was the target of the quest that Gacita originally ordered when she said she was going to hunt.

I would have felt my prey had been plundered.

The hostility to me from the beginning burns even more, and it's a level of tongue-in-cheek on the road.

"Monsters can damage villages, so it's common sense to hunt when you can, isn't it? Mr. Dariel contributed to the village!

"Marika is right. In this case, Gacita is badly jealous at will. The adventurers of the same guild have to work together......!

It seems absolutely impossible to cooperate with him at the moment.

"I know you're a troubled species as village chief, but don't you have to take the time? I will try to solve it from me..."

"No, it's something else I'm worried about."

Something else?

"Dariel, when you were away, he came."

Maybe he's been after my absence for a while, the village chief said, speculating.

"He asked me to give him a stronger monster crusade quest. He's tougher than Etemorn or Anthracite."

"Yep...!?"

As for Gacita, do you want to defeat a strong enemy and show off your strength?

But I felt reckless.

"But isn't it so easy to show up in a country like this with a mighty monster? If he showed up, wouldn't he have enjoyed it?

"Is that a good time or a bad time..."

The village chief has somehow produced a single document.

Huh?

No way......?

The document said this along with the subject's figure picture.

"Emergency and Blaze Death Size Crusade Request".

What the..., it gave off a dangerous atmosphere...!?

"Blaze Death Size is a much more dangerous and powerful monster than Etemorn or Anthracite or something"

"Why do we have crusade quests like that? We should deal with it in a bigger city guild, right?

Marika says dissatisfied.

"Absolutely right. Koitz's crusade is a guild in the neighboring town, winning class B C. It has nothing to do with the villages."

"Then why are you like this...?

"Still neighborhood. We're away, but there's no chance of dangerous monsters coming this way. So be careful, you've got this request delivered."

"You mean you showed that to Gacita's idiot? If you do that, that idiot's gonna get ahead of you. What are you thinking, your father's idiot!

Marika is such a relentless mouthpiece.

You still treat me with respect though.

"I didn't show it to you. I'll see what Gashita's asshole can do about it."

The village chief said he preached to Gacita, who had pressed for a 'stronger monster crusade quest'.

You are growing. There are better adventurers than you to rot. He wants to live in the tunnel again.

But the young man could not accept his mediocrity.

I fished the village chief's desk on my own and found an example hazard monster requisition.

"'Don't show that to the Osama bastard! Never show it to me!' He jumped out of it, calling out.... I really can't help it"

You mean me, Osama bastard?

...... when you say that clarity......!

"... than that. Can I be so calm?

Hazardous monsters where class B and C adventurers should move.

Wouldn't it suck if a D-grade Gacita bumped into you?

"I told you earlier, didn't I? The area in charge of the Neighborhood Guild was the one with the Blaze Death Size sighting. I'm a long way from here. It's just a precaution to have a circular over here."

"So what does Gacita fight for...?

"I guess not first. Even if he wanted to be in charge of the neighborhood, the main adventurers there would have solved it before he arrived."

That's why the village chief seemed to be still relaxed.

"But wouldn't it be a problem if our adventurers broke into your area on their own? Could it be a liability issue for your father, who is Gilmouth?

"Oh, do it...!?"

I can't seem to stay too loose.

"... I'll go"

Stand up.

"I'll follow you, convince you, and take you home."

"Yeah? Fine, Darriel. You don't have to worry about it. He's got no guts anyway, so he's gonna come home tired along the way."

said the village chief, but that didn't bother me.

There's some kind of heartbreak.

These heartbeats have been around since the days of the Demon King Army, and something bad always happens.

I always regretted ignoring this blur.

"It won't be that easy to find, so if you can't look around the woods, you'll be back."

"Sorry, you took care of something..."

Preparing quickly, Marika rushes over.

"Take this"

That's what she gives away......

"Medicine?"

"I processed the herbs I collected with Mr. Darriel. I don't know what will happen..."

I thanked her sincerely for her care and I missed the small box with the medicine.

"Okay, I'll be there"

I didn't think I'd catch up just fine myself.

From the story of the village chief, it would have been a long time before Gacita left, and it would be a difficult undertaking to discover in the deep and steep woods, even if the general direction was known.

So I was honestly going to go home if I could just look for it and get the response that I did the best I could.

That's why I left Lax Village.

But optimism was betrayed.

"..., what is this...!?"

The forest was rough.

The trees were swept down, the soil was decided, and there were even bodies rolling in the wind that unfortunate little animals had been caught in the wind.

Something was going on.

There are traces on the ground that are even on the plane as if something had crawled.

As I followed it, I came across the worst.

"Hi-ha-ha!? Help! Help. Yeah, eh!?"

It's Gacita.

The man in question had not left any shards, such as his daily arrogance, but had sounded in fear and confusion.

One snake who sees such an item as a prey and slowly crawls over.

Huge snake.

It was just like the sketch depicted.

Enemy strong enough to hit a crusade with a Class B C Adventurer.

Blaze Death Size.

It was a serpent with a giant body that could be swallowed whole.
