Legend

That was the incredible reward that they were given when they returned from work that day.

Three gold coins.

If it's normal, the amount you don't think you earned in a day.

No, there is a special presence among the trees… If that is what can cut a special tree like that called a water tree or wind tree, we can even say that this much reward is a little cheap, as opposed to normal.

But everyone who worked in the Trent Forest was nothing but a normal one.

It was totally unexpected that I would get this much more than that.

There are, of course, several reasons for this.

In the first place, a job is a turnover system.

And sometimes there was little time lag because the job of carrying the hardest harvested tree in the jaws was done at the hands of Ray with the item box.

In addition, work in the Trento Forest means that there is a large aspect of hazard pay.

Until now, just so you know, two adventurer parties are devastating the forest.... Though Thresha managed to survive.

As for those who have lived for quite some time, they understand.

Because I understand, I didn't do anything extra and concentrated only on doing the job I was told.

But... with more rewards than we could have imagined, for the younger ones, that's where Trent's Forest should be called the Sleeping Forest of Treasure.

Of course it is said in advance that it is a dangerous place.

But it's true that there wasn't any danger when I was working.

Not to mention that even the adventurers who were supposed to be escorts were cutting trees with themselves and getting paid.

Just because we have pride in ourselves, we also have discontent with such adventurers.

Among those young ones, one finds himself fuzzy.

"Don't you need to make a ton of money while you can? The trees that the adventurers cut were supposed to get paid for cutting them."

Its peculiarity is more than cutting down Trento forest trees… it is known that the forest spreads like every day.

If you think calmly, you don't have to worry about the trees you cut that far because nature and the woods are spreading... there was dissatisfaction and jealousy about the adventurers in this mess.

Originally, the name Fekz was born and raised in Gilm.

And I naturally admired the adventurer more than I grew up in a gilm that could be described as the adventurer's real life.

But... when Fekz became a teenager or so and tried to be an adventurer... his father, who was doing it, died of illness.

And the mother and sister, the three younger brothers, will have trouble with their lives.

An adventurer is the only way to earn enough money for one person to manage to live in the case of low-ranking adventurers.

If Fekz had become an adventurer here through his own will, it would have been difficult for Fekz's family to live.

That's enough to think that Fekz's mother would have starved to death if she hadn't been a whore as well.

In such a situation, Fekz could not pass my end of being an adventurer, but had only the option of becoming an adventurer.

Neither do newcomers get paid that high, but they still get paid more than low-ranking adventurers.

Not to the extent that my brother and sister, who should still be called toddlers, don't have to starve.

And... Fekz begins his life as a cunt.

As a result, Fekz will show up as one of the young men of Fekz, whether he had the gift of an heir from his father.

It was now treated as one of the powerful figures among the young.

Only the words of such a person naturally agree with the young people of the Xu who are intoxicated by Fekz.

In fact, there was never a small amount of thought that we had come as escorts but didn't do any work that looked like work, imitating ourselves and cutting trees.

Not to mention the fact that many people were not particularly concerned about the direction in which the tree fell, just because it was not a real job, the cut of the felled tree was cluttered, and the tree fell on the proper person, which was not very much seen from Fekz's eyes.

Most of all, the adventurers didn't think they could cut trees as well as they could, and they were cutting trees some distance away from them so as not to cause trouble.

From Fekz's eyes, I wonder if there's a lot behind that care, too.

Such a tree cut would also reward the escort... I couldn't convince the adventurers of their actions if I tried Fekz.

Not to mention that inside you also see the adventurer who threw out his escort and went into the woods alone with the woman, so the feeling of being unconvinced becomes stronger.

... In fact, Luno and Sleisha were doing a lot of research on the Trent Forest, but Fekz has not been informed of the circumstances around it... that Sleisha is the survivor of a party that was wiped out in the Trent Forest.

That's why Luno and the others only seemed flirtatious to Fekz, even though he was asked to escort him.

I guess it's not a strange story to think that you don't want to imitate those adventurers in such a way as to make them earn money on purpose, given Fekz's circumstances and personality.

"All right, let's go"

The others on the side nod back at the whining Fekz words.

Together with Fekz are those who admire Fekz, those who are in trouble with money, those who simply don't care about adventurers… and those who have a variety of other reasons.

Those people are going to the front gate with an axe this time with Fekz.

Already the sun tilts and dyes its surroundings red at sunset.

Some spring warmth, but it's still cold at night even this time of year.

Fekts, who were getting a little chilly, but still have the excitement to outrun the adventurers, walk without feeling the cold.

When he arrives at the main entrance, he speaks to the guards to carry out the procedure of leaving the city.

This is the first gate.

After a while, today's gate closes.

More than that, the fekts leaving the city from this hour deserved to be worried.

"Yeah? Fekz? What's wrong with the others?

"Oh, I kind of forgot something at work. So this is how I thought I'd go get it."

"Wow... can't you turn that around tomorrow? We can't afford much more until we close the main entrance, can we?

"I know. But it's pretty important. I don't want you to leave me alone for the night and make strange pranks about monsters and animals"

"... ok. But be careful, okay?

I guess I'm just worried, not particularly suspicious, because I've been acting as a guard and I'm familiar with the guards.

Waving gently at such a familiar guard, Fekz proceeds with the process.

"Even so, more than ten people are going with you?

"Well, for when something happens. You can't hire an adventurer just to get to work and come back, can you?

"Sort of."

I can't help but convince the guards, who know that Fekz's house is never wealthy, of the word as well.

If I could, I would have liked to keep up with myself in combat training, but my current self was not going to move as head of the front gate.

"Be really careful, man."

"Oh, of course. And don't worry, if we had all this, we wouldn't have done anything."

"... besides goblins, many monsters may show up, so I'm worried"

Waving gently at the worried guard and finishing the process of leaving the guild, Fekz leads the others out of the main entrance.

The guards still at work could only shut up and drop off the backs of such fekts.

"Look, we're tonight... that's what we're going to cut even the trees until tomorrow morning. That's what keeps the adventurers out of our territory."

"Ooh."

The others snort at Fekz's words.

It was already off the streets and moving towards the forest of Trento.

It's not that uncommon to think that you're out at this hour.

That's why it's not uncommon to finally come back to the Guild just before the gate closes when you're cutting trees.

But still, it was Fekz's first experience to head to a place of work at this hour.

"For once, as soon as something happens, it's like calling out.... Well, given how the adventurers are doing today, you won't have to worry about that first"

"Right. In the first place, the adventurer didn't do any escort work at all to the habit of being hired as an escort. Then you should have been in the first place."

Fekz's sickness speaks out of dissatisfaction with the adventurer.

I guess the same goes for the others. Walk away with words to each of them.

So when the sun sets or not... the Fekts arrive in the Trento Forest.

"Hmm."

From Fekz's mouth, such a grunt leaks as he looks around somehow.

It's not a word that means anything in particular.

But still, those words leaked out of Fekz's mouth.

"Mr. Fekz, what do you want to do?

One of the crooks nearby asks Fekz.

Each of them brings a set of gear.

I also thought it might be suspicious to have an axe, but sometimes the face was familiar, and the guards didn't look particularly suspicious.

Most importantly, he's out of the Guild without a guard, so I guess it's natural to carry a weapon.

"I don't even have time for this. Let's get this over with. Look, I don't think there's anything going on, but I'm gonna scream to let everyone know as soon as something happens."

If it was meant to be, it would be tantamount to suicide for a mere hawk, who is not an adventurer, to keep logging trees through the night.

But when I was working in the Trent Forest during the day, instead of monsters, I didn't even see animals.

More than that, there was an assumption that monsters would not come out even at night.

Usually, Fekz wouldn't think of it that way either.

Still, I was currently in this kind of behavior because my jealousy of the adventurers I saw at noon was still the biggest reason.

I couldn't even be who I wanted to be, adventurer.

Even without that adventurer, we can cut trees now without any problems.

Prove it, and say this tomorrow when your companions and adventurers arrive.

"Adventurer? It's the same whether you're here or not."

and.

When I said that, just imagine what look the adventurers would give Fekz a smile of joy on his face.

... Fekz has also heard of the destruction of the party in this Trent forest.

But it was the Adventurer's Party that devastated me, and sometimes it was the Adventurer's Guild that gave me the information, and I honestly didn't feel like believing it.

Didn't you make up a story that didn't even exist to increase the value of the adventurer?

I understand myself to be equal to the bottom line, but I still think of it that way.

The idea of whether this is okay behind Fekz's brain only for a moment as he sees his buddies preparing to cut down Trent's forest trees one after another according to his instructions.

Still, I shake my head immediately and tell myself this option is the best… yes, Fekz also goes into getting ready to cut trees again.

It's like you're turning away from something you don't like...... it was such an act.

Even if it's such behavior, I've only lived as a fool before and it's handy.

As Fekz put it, it's a hands-on job incomparable with the logging work the adventurers were doing.

"We're going down -!

Shake the axe, control the direction of the fall and defeat the tree outward.

Fectus and the others cut down the trees one after the other because they don't have to imitate things like taking tree branches.

Its speed, I guess, is a lot to think of...... still, definitely fast.

However, it is harder to do the work than it is in a situation where the surroundings are already dim.

"We can light the fire! Be careful not to burn in the woods!

Everyone replies to Fekz's words and goes back to work again.

Incinerating a fire in the woods is dangerous in many ways... Fortunately, with my experience as a pigeon, I had the confidence that I could handle that much.

In addition, each of us is stronger than the other.

If we look at the lights and animals and monsters...... on the contrary, I'm confident that even if bandits attack us, we can do whatever we want.

Using that confidence as a source... the Fekts continued their logging operations in the woods.
