Episode 214

Going north, it became naturally chilly.

"Winter?"

The winter has passed, but it is still too early to become a full-fledged winter.

We ran down the road in the forest. In the forest, the greenery has disappeared, autumnal trees have begun to appear, and coniferous forests can be seen. There are lots of monsters, too.

"It seems you don't have to eat."

It is unlikely that the youth of the beast would die of hunger, even if he was still there. Because it is almost a straight road, it may catch up someday.

There was a place like a checkpoint, but I thought he wouldn't be attacked by demons, and he couldn't stop him.

"Is it a former border line?"

"The fire country may regard demons as their own."

Aisle replied.

It seemed that he was in the country of fire.

Isle drew a map and we took a break with a cup of tea. After confirming that there are no people around recently, he drew up in the air and looked at the surroundings from the sky to draw a map. We understand the hobbies of the Isle and do not say anything because they are sometimes useful for work.

As I ran further, I saw lakes and rivers between the steep mountains.

The number of forked roads has increased, and they have gradually met with peddlers and exchanged greetings. I'm not tired, but it's troublesome to run and hit it, so walk from here. I could fly in the sky, but it wouldn't be much better to stand out.

There is a village on the bank of the river, and we will stay there tonight. The village is lined with almost no gaps, like old wooden inns. The sun was starting to fall, so when viewed from the other side of the river, the lantern-shaped magic stone lights illuminated the village buildings, making it very beautiful.

While searching for accommodation, go around the village and buy something like a meatball for dinner. The contents are packed with goat demon meat and root vegetables, making it very delicious. At the inn, Seth and Melmo replenish food and daily necessities. We are looking for a job.

"I still have no money."

"I almost used it in a castle."

I and Aile are dingy.

"Well, what happened to Seth?"

"There is a river to the east of the forest, from which we can go out to sea. The Sirens said. We left or forgot. We don't procure our boat anyway. Tone "

Bersa said, looking at a narrow covered boat floating on the river. The river boat has a flat bottom. Despite the night, the river traffic is heavy.

“Maybe there ’s a red light district ……”

I suddenly got excited.

"Even though you say you don't have the money, you can't go.

Our vice president and accounting are tough.

The merchant guild was the largest 4-storey building in the village and was quickly found.

"Comlo Company? It's a name you don't ask."

A staff member with a long beard told me at the reception. I seem to sleep because of the night shift.

"Yes, I came from a different continent. I heard that there was a ceasefire.

"It's a different continent! When the guild faction asks a different vendor, it's like cleaning up trash."

Well, I heard that the merchant guild has several factions around the world.

"Oh, that's okay. We're a cleaning and extermination company. If you have a restaurant where you're in trouble with insect monsters or rat monsters, we're contracting cheaper than asking adventurers."

"Huh, you're doing a weird job. I'll show you if there's such a store.

"Thank you"

For the time being, we put a poster on the bulletin board and we left the merchant guild.

"Okay, as usual. Open a restaurant and ask about the fire hero. Don't overdo it."

With that said, I hand Aile and Versa a healing and antidote antidote.

"Because it's night. There's no help if I can't find it.

Three people walked in different directions at the village crossroads.

My aim is, of course, the torch. The village is mostly uphill, watching the flow of people and opening restaurants that are still open. It's a weird job, so it's almost empty, but some shops said, "Tomorrow, come back when the owner is there."

Strangely, there is no church in this village. There are many stalls and peddlers are seen, so it seems good to worship the god of business. When we go to the river and ask the captain of the ship, he seems to worship the spirit of fire but rarely worship God.

"You, when your business fails, who asks for help?"

Conversely, the boatman asked me a question.

"Hmm? Is it God?"

"Huh, God doesn't do anything. God only deals with miracles. He doesn't guarantee life."

The boatman smoked a long smoke tube and exhaled smoke.

"Family? It's your family that helps you. It's not God, but your wife, my wife. I have a younger brother and my father is dead, so I can't rely on him. There is an aunt, everybody is a merchant, and every business is like a burning fire, sometimes with a high heat and some with a low heat. "Every merchant in the country of fire is a family. Na, it's a sale of the Fire Hero. Look at it. "

The paper from the boatman said, "Fire tribe."

"Fireworkers. The name of a merchant guild in the country of fire. This was a different country until a few years ago. Now it's a country of fire. I fell in love with each country, Spikeman, head of the guild of fireworkers. "In other words, be a hero of fire."

It is said that people of the occupied country a few years ago yearn for this much. Is this charismatic?

"I'm sorry.

I lost the sight of finding a red light district. The enemy is charismatic, I do not know how to break. Or is it okay to get rid of it?

Other restaurants also have a sticker labeled "Fire".

Although the brave of fire has invaded other nations, he has a firm grip on his heart and is loved by others. What is scary is weapon development and war. But it's up to the politicians to stop it. Is there anything we can do?

When he returned to the inn, Aisle and Bersa found a job.

Two in the village. When you get on a boat to the town on the shores of the lake, there is a request for an extermination. Above all, I have a job. Seth and Melmo seem to be able to replenish their food and daily necessities, and they really don't have to go in their purse bags.

When my pocket became lighter, I went to bed today.

The next morning, the village was white because of the dense fog, probably because the lake was near, and could not be seen 5 meters away. The innkeeper asks the owner to draw a map of the village and completes two requests for extermination in the village. One was to clean a house full of spider webs and remove spider monsters. The little spider monster is supposed to be a good insect, but the client's uncle is afraid of spider webs and poison.

A towel is wrapped around a wooden stick, and spider webs are used to capture spider monsters, which are then cleaned up. There's nothing you can't catch fast. Finally, the medicine for the demon repellent is sprayed with the pump and the operation is completed. The gaps in the windows were filled with cave slime to prevent spider monsters from entering.

"I have no poison."

Melmo was talking to the spider monsters in the bag.

The next request is that a large number of millipede monsters have been generated in the storehouse. Unlike centipede demons, millipede demons should be harmless, but their appearance is scary.

"The millipede monster should be in Kuchiki or the fallen leaves. I think the warehouse itself is dangerous."

Says our magician Bersa. When I entered the storehouse, both floorboards and wallboards were tattered. It was an all-you-can-eat bug.

"It's nice to get rid of it, but we're not renovators, and it will happen again soon."

However, as the client says, "For the time being, get rid of just the ones inside." Spray in a demon repellent and drive it in. Collect them in one place and capture them with a sticky trap. I borrowed the backyard and baked it with the spider monster.

"It's money, so let's do it."

As the fog was clear, the boatman I met yesterday took me to a town just across the lake.

When I came to the middle of the lake, the fog was fine and the scenery changed completely. I couldn't see it last night, but there are a number of steep pillar-like mountains scattered, and although the mountains are visible, the places parallel to the ground are filled with green trees. Seeing the top of the mountain from the fog is like an island in the sky.

"This is a nice scenery."

"It would be so!"

The boatman seems proud to live here.

The lakeside town has a market where merchants who trade by boat gather, and the number of boats is large.

All of the requests we received were caused by ant monsters. It seems to be a monster of an ant called a simant like a medium-sized dog.

"It's a cave digging monster? I've heard it several times."

When I checked with Bersa, she said, "Yes," and showed me "Lissa's Monster Notebook." They look completely ants and have jaws that break rocks. It's scary because it's about the size of a medium dog.

Ayl said that he had been called out when he was attracting customers with appropriate swordsmanship performances.

When I talked to the client's paper wholesaler, she said she would sometimes enter the town to bring food and break the pillars of the house. The paper wholesaler was a great merchant guild and said, "I'll advertise if it works."

"However, a number of adventurers are challenging and missing. Please do not overdo it. I do not expect so much. It is a life-long species."

Like a merchant, his waist is low but sharp. It may be like a merchant in a fire country.

We talk in a town based inn.

"In fact, in history, there seems to have been cases where the whole town was hijacked by a Simant. It's a social demonic. You have to be careful."

Versa warned everyone.

"You're social but you're not a demon, right?"

"Negotiations are impossible. It's a monster because adventurers are attacked."

Isle said.

"I'm not in town, it's outside. Is this going to cover a wide area?"

Seth asked.

"That's right. I think the nest is nearby and will exterminate the Queen of Symantec."

The cave where the Red Dragon was and the cave south of the Great Plains were allegedly made by Simant, so the nest should be large enough for us to fit in normally.

"It looks like a dungeon capture, but it looks fun"

Melmo says it's appropriate. Mermo should be the most cautious when it happens.

"Are monsters ...?"

"Did not Naoki exterminate the world before?"

Bersa asked.

"It's basically poison bait and poison spray. There were also things like mixing baking soda and sugar to explode the belly, or feeding them with indigestible food to starve, but the size of this world is different I from"

The bait costs like a fool.

"First, find the nest, close the entrance, and use the sleeping pills. Then, with the flow of the absorbing agent.

"First of all, prepare poison in various ways. Be on the fly, don't forget the communication stickers and flying brooms.

Aisle seemed to be the vice president and closed it.

The town had many buildings like inns, like villages, and there were also adventurer guilds. At first glance, a request for the removal of the Simant was tanned on a bulletin board. A request was made long ago, but nobody has achieved it. The client was the owner of a paper wholesaler.

There are so many adventurers. It is said that the war stops and mercenaries that flow in can earn daily cash for the time being.

Here again, the hero of fire is very popular. The tactics of the "rapid wand" seemed to have fitted on most battlefields.

"In this situation, what is our client thinking about exterminating the hero of fire ...?"

Aisle is dim.

"That's just God knows."

He left the adventurer's guild.

In the forest outside the town, there are about 50% of trees that have fallen leaves and trees that have green leaves. We entered the forest as peddlers in fur robes came and went along the street.

There is no reason for Simant to come to town in a rich forest full of nuts and monsters. Maybe they happened to be in town.

When I went sightseeing, I went to a mountain like a steep pillar, and found a simple nest of Simant.

"Yabe ..."

There were nests on each of the pillar-shaped rocky mountains. It's like an anthill. The number cannot be 1000 or 2,000, and there are too many to count.

"What do you do? I won't block the entrance.

Bersa said.

"What are you doing ...?"
