On the day of departure of the Merchant Guard of the Marida Chamber of Commerce, I was disguised in a Kevlar mask with a German SS black dress look, and I was crushing my time to leave with Mr. Malta as the other self, the "shaft", who also used voice changer in combination.

There, came a request for escort from the General Alliance, three adventurers joined.

"Oops, I'm Maximilian, cranmaster of C-rank Adventurer" Male Flower "!

Volkaiser from "C-Rank Adventurer” Male Flower ”!

"C Rank Adventurer" Boys Flowers ”Gothalt. Come on!

The three people who came into the reception room were the adventurers who had been involved in the tool shop when I had just come to the fortified city of Barga. I guess all three are fixed parties of the same clan, but what comes to mind when I hear Otokoesi is the weeds that bloom around it.

It is actually probably a firmer plant, but when left alone it grows to about 60cm-1m and wears small white flowers but is also known as this otokoeshi, a grass that emits a rotten odor.

Maximilian is a cat-eared big man wearing leather armor with a big body. Volkaiser looks like a rat-faced hooded robe, but is he a magician? Gotthardt is a light raccoon face gear. But I can't imagine the movement of a light warrior from my puffy stomach.

"I am Malta, president of the Chamber of Commerce of Marida. Thank you for taking this request. This is my friend Shaft, and we're asking him to escort the merchants."

"Shaft."

The three male flowers seem slightly drawn to my look, but that's the master who leads the clan, or Maximilian, step forward and stare at me as he explores me.

"Hey, are you an adventurer? If you were an adventurer, how much rank would you have?

"No, I didn't register as an adventurer. I'm just going to escort you as a friend of Malta this time."

"Even if you're not an adventurer, can you do an escort request?"

"I don't need foot clumps!

"So come on! Leader, if you want, it's enough. Come on!

"Let's be fools! I always told you to call me master!

"Well, well, I am well aware of the ability of the shaft. I'll have him with me about the carriage. I plan to have the three male flowers follow me before and after the merchant squad, are the horses ready?

Until the arrival of the male flower, there was discussion between Shaft and Mr. Malta about leaving no polite tone. This is one small piece of work to clearly separate Schwartz from the shaft.

The tone of the shaft also basically changes from Schwartz. In a small pile, he creates a big false figure.

"Of course, I've pulled a horse this far."

From there, we had a light meeting about the merchant escort and discussed a number of confirmations, including the arrangements for the role during the escort and the order of watch.

Are you all right with those adventurers that get tangled up in the tool shop? And I was worried, but they've accomplished several requests for escorts between Barga and Wang Capital, confidently saying, "Leave it to me!!" and strained.

"Then I'm leaving!

The loading on the wagon is all over, and we left the fortified city of Barga. First three of the male flowers cross the castle gate with a horse, then our carriage passes.

Naturally, when I crossed it, I had my guild card and other ID checks, so I went back to Schwartz's outfit in the front of the carriage and went back to the shaft in front of him again after checking the guild card.

On the road to Wangdu, he travels in a queue of cat-eared big men and rat-faces, carriages of carriages, and rack-faced at the rear of the line. The owner of the wagon is an employee of the Marida Chamber of Commerce, and I'm sitting with Mr. Malta in the lead wagon.

Between the fortified city of Barga and the Wang capital, there are two resting places, a rain-sheltered building just with columns and a roof, and a place for cooking. The rest stop on Barga's side is the target point today.

Nothing happened the first day I left the castle city of Barga, and I was interested in various chats with Mr. Malta on the road. Of course, it's an escort mission, so I won't forget to hear the surrounding sounds. That said, there are two main things to be aware of.

Sometimes warcraft such as Glaswolf come out of the woods and woods off the streets in search of food, as I helped Mr. Malta first. One response to this, the other is banditry.

Especially now at the Green Ghost's Labyrinth Harvest Festival, there is more traffic between Barga and the King's Capital, carrying tons of supplies and demonic stones. The wagon we're escorting right now is loaded with magic stones.

The number of empty demon stones is not that high, but many adventurers who were operating in the labyrinth around Barga are moving back to Barga once to liquidate their harvest until then and participate in the harvest festival.

That's the kind of demonic stone that's loaded in the carriage. And the bandits gather for it, too. The Knights of King's Capital and Barga also seem to move day and night to crusade bandits, but the effect comes from the middle to the end of the harvest festival. Now it has just begun, and the Knights' crusade has been completely fruitless.

It's basically night for a bandit to show up. A similar resting place is built on the streets everywhere, just as there is a resting place between Barga and the Wang capital. Night raids there are a pattern of bandits' ordinances.

Rest areas used by many merchants and travellers are convenient for bandits to monitor and raid users.

Paying particular attention to these two raiders, I kept picking up the surrounding noises while talking to Mr. Marta.

The first night dawned with nothing. I turned the watch with the three male flowers in a rotation, and I caught my guard.

In this escort, the Marida Chamber of Commerce brought me meals on the road. The meals during the merchant escort can be seen if the adventurer prepares them himself and if the merchant side prepares them all.

You're just experimenting with this lunch box rather than saying that the Marida Chamber of Commerce is generous enough to prepare meals as well...

The lunch box prepared by the Marida Chamber of Commerce was a small box like the bamboo cage that I and Mr. Malta had looked for in the lunch box. Inside, white bread and meat and vegetables are separated by paper.

I checked with Mr. Malta, and he said he had engineered a wax into the paper to keep the juice from touching another dish. From the lunchbox story I told you about in my vague memory, he immediately came up with it.

This Merchant Corps meal is also a trial in this wax paper lunchbox.

As far as I'm concerned, if it's not just a meal of dried meat and bread and water, I'd appreciate it.

The men flowers also seemed surprised to be able to eat something unexpectedly solid at the request of an escort. At first, I was worried about their skill, but it seemed true to say that they were doing a few escort requests, and the rotation of the watch on the road and at the berth was fine.

But it wasn't until this day that I had no problems.

On the second day, leaving the rest stop on the Barga side and heading to the rest stop on the Wang Du side is today's itinerary. Half that itinerary had passed, and if I ran another few hours, I'd come to the distance of getting to the rest stop, and I could hear the sound in my ear that I hadn't heard so far.

It's the sound of a horse's hoof, how many are there? It's not at the end of the street or behind it, it can be heard from the woods at the end off the street. Because of the distance between my sound collecting sensors, I can't determine the exact position, but it is attached to this side by side.

"Malta, it could be attached"

"Is it true, Shuba - Shaft"

"Two horses have been walking side by side from the woods over there for a while.

"It doesn't look like me at all, but maybe it's the scourge of bandits"

"Bandit scouts?! I didn't see that at all."

"Well, if there's such a thing, there's no way Leader would miss it."

"Well, come on, even the wild horses must have seen it. Come on."

I can't help but change the ratings of these three...... I asked Marta to keep herself in check so that she can move around as soon as something happens and that she is consolidated at the Marida Chamber of Commerce employee at the rest stop tonight.

If that really is the scourge of banditry, the aim would be tonight. I don't know about Theory the Raid, I don't know if I can handle it correctly.

But if you have something to protect, I...

The three male flowers are preparing for the bandit raid, without responding otherwise, resting in the same rotation as they did last night.

Mr. Malta and three employees of the Marida Chamber of Commerce have been asked to consolidate and rest in one carriage of carriages. If a raid occurs as expected and the situation is not good, ask them alone to run to the King's Capital.

I started the TSS (Tactical Support System) and got a ton of AS_VAL magazines and an M84 flashvan.

Because the number of people is unknown, it is better to change the magazine more often. I thought I would use a heavy weapon as well, but equipping a heavy weapon reduces the power suit's kinematic performance, which is a VMB specification. If you don't know where or how many people they're coming from, that can be deadly. Here we expected AS_VAL's attack and silence, and on the contrary chose to confuse our opponents.

It's almost time for the date to change, I'll get out of the berth roof and stand on the lookout for the perimeter. As we circle around the rest stop, we clear our ears to the surrounding sound, and the head goggle puts us in NV (Night Vision) mode to look around.

I can hear - the sound of horse hooves, countless hooves running this way through the woods.

"Coming!"

Even if you didn't believe in the scourge of bandits, if you actually saw the bandits attacking you, the male flowers would take action as well. I thought so, raised my voice and informed him of the enemy attack, but the action taken by the male flower was going diagonally up my imagination.

"Let's be fools! You can't be helped by that number of attacks!

"Exactly! There are 40 heads!

"Let's get out of here. Come on!

"Become!?

What are these guys talking about? I do see nearly 40 bandits on horses flying out of the woods, and even those running from behind them. I wonder if the total number is about 60, the guys on the horse have already pulled out their swords and come up and storm.

This number is unsavory and surrounded while protecting the people of the carriage and the Marida Chamber of Commerce.

"Malta! Don't go to Wangdu!"

In his first voice to inform of the bandit's raid, Marta, already in his face from the front of the carriage, opened his eyes and stared at me.

"No! Out of the way!

I don't know if you understood my words, but Mr. Marta went back into the front and the carriage immediately moved out.

All the most expensive demon stones are reloaded in that carriage. The other two just have supplies on them other than Demon Stone. At worst, the damage is not that high, and then we stop the bandits as lords, make it impossible to chase them, and then I withdraw too.
