Arios returned to the inn where he was staying.
Upon entering the room, there were three of them: Agus, Leanne and Mina.
"Oh, welcome back."
"Where have you been?
"What, a little wild for you. What were you guys doing?
"We were gathering information about the disturbance earlier, and we were just, we were just putting it together."
"Disturbance ahead, hey"
"Information control is in place... but the other day the monster appeared all over the city, you can be sure of it in the Demon Nation"
Mina says with a serious face.
The fact that the Demons appear all over the city is such a heavy matter by now.
Anyway, I've never had a case like that in the last few years.
It's just not like there's no precedent.
In the midst of a war going on with the Demon King, there is a case of the Demons appearing all over the city and attacking people.
Given that, this incident may be a sign that the Demon King will start a war.
Mina suspected so.
But Arios, who knows that the Demon King has absolutely nothing to do with it, replies with ease.
"You won't think that deep. I hear the lord of this city had his hands on various antiques. Daimyo, one of them must have been a demon clan sealed and unlocked by some kind of bounce"
"Is it...?
"It's no use thinking. I guess the Demons have already been crusaded, huh? I don't know the truth."
"That's the thing..."
Agus opened his mouth.
Wouldn't you say something extra again?
Arios struck his tongue with his heart.
"After all, isn't it a bad idea to have left the Demons alone?
"That's the story..."
The night of the incident.
One line of Arios staying in the city naturally understood that the Demons had emerged.
On top of that, he decided not to be a big opponent, that there was no need for brave men to leave on purpose......
Although Agus and Mina reluctantly, Arios pushed the story through forcefully.
It's all Arios' ruse.
It doesn't make sense that we did something deliberately to make the Demons summon us, but we defeated it with our own hands.
So I dared to ignore it. Left alone.
"There are adventurers in this city. Some knights. And yet you don't have to bother with us putting it out, do you?
"But they're demons, right? It's our enemy."
"No. Our enemy is the Demon King. The devil tribe is nothing but a miscellaneous fish."
"It's..."
"Besides, you could've done it without us. I mean, it was, like, that degree of opponent. We're not convenience stores. There is no hippopotamus that strays on such a miscellaneous fish. Wouldn't you?
"... well, you don't even know what Arios is saying"
"Then that's the end of this story. It's too much. I can't help but steam it back."
"Okay."
Kind of.
Arios laughed inside.
A warrior who sells nothing but strength and sturdiness.
Wisdom is not on my mind.
It's easier than dealing with a kid.
I didn't even know Arios was thinking that, and Agus had an emotionally unreadable look and was quiet.
"Is it just about the Demons that we were all talking about?
"No, there's one more thing"
"You know, it's time to get back on your journey? I'm tired of this city."
Leanne says as she teases her hair with her fingertips.
After talking about Lene like that, Arios thought.
I haven't erased Rain yet.
I have not returned the humiliation I received.
To that end, I used my lord's son to work out a plan for this one.
But it ended in failure.
Why did you fail?
Because Rayne endured instant death magic?
Or because even the Demons attacked?
Think of it like that... Arios spilled a small sigh.
You have to think about:
Because I can't help but drag my failures forever.
Let's reconsider.
However, haste is forbidden.
Never be alarmed.
To the point of thinking so, Arios was wary of Rayne.
For one thing, let's leave it now.
If we don't resume our journey like this, that makes us suspicious.
We shall serve our original purpose.
Arios decides so and speaks to everyone.
"Well, it's time to get back on your journey"
"I've been waiting! I want to go to a more glamorous city next time."
"Leanne, we have a noble mission to crusade the Demon King. Don't think hard."
"Hey, that's good. If I'd stuck around all the time, I wouldn't be relieved."
"It's, well..."
"By the way, there are fewer roadblocks... does anyone know?
To Agus' words, Arios looked bitter for a moment.
Road banking is decreasing because Arios used it on his own.
If we find out about that, we will not be spared the blame.
I bought a magic item on the black market to erase Rain...... there's no way I can tell.
Arios decided not to know.
"Don't you know Arios?
"Come on? You just realized that was happening."
"Well... if Arios says so, I guess so"
Arios tongued lightly at Agus' words, which were somewhat contained.
I know, because I felt like I was being told.
"If you don't, you don't. Every month, they send me a payment, so I don't have any problems."
"... right"
"But what about food and water? You can't buy it without money."
"We're the brave ones, aren't we? As always, if you collect it."
It's a selfish statement, but no one disputes what Lene says.
Rather, so much so that I was convinced that it was the same.
"Then let's just get out of here"
Together they nodded at Arios' words.
I checked out the inn and moved to the compartment where the store stood.
First the groceries.
After searching the store appropriately and finding something that seems convenient, speak to the store owner.
"You got a second?
"Hmm? What, now... what, brave man?
When Arios spoke, the shopkeeper looked surprised.
They know about Arios.
Then when the conversation is quick, Arios laughs and talks.
"Will you look after the week's worth of food appropriately?
"Yes. For a week...... for four?
"Oh, yeah"
"That would be... about five silver coins, okay?
"You're not going to make it."
"Huh?"
"I'm a brave man. As you know, I'm on a journey to save the world. So it's your duty to cooperate with it, right? Unfortunately, I don't have a hand right now. Let me collect it."
"It's an honor to help us. Oh, can I advertise the store where the brave party stopped by?
It was a natural act for Arios and the others.
It is only natural for people to work with themselves on a mission to save the world.
I think so from the bottom of my heart, without getting lost.
In fact, nothing has gone wrong until now.
No one and he, though confused, have immediately responded to the request with a mesmerizing grin.
This time too, they'll be offering you food soon.
That's what I was thinking...
"... I'm sorry, will you go home"
"What?"
"No matter how brave you are, we can't give you food for free in this situation."
"... you know what you're talking about? I, the brave one, am asking for your help?
"Dear brave man, do you know what you're talking about!? In the disturbance the other day, the city is a mess! The logistics are lagging behind, and I'm having trouble eating enough. Even in that situation, there's no way I can give you food for free. Please go home."
"Ki, you... give me such a mouth..."
The shopkeeper's words were so true that there was no more.
I can't even argue with that Arios, and he gets dizzy.
It was then.
The store owner next door comes forward and interrupts the conversation.
"I'm telling you, there's no store in this city that gives you things."
Words were uttered like a chase.
"If you're listening next door, you're kidding... are you sure you're a brave man? That's incredible. That young man seems more brave than you."
"... you think you can talk about a joke and do it for free?
"Oops. What would be a brave man raise his hand in the middle of such a commute?
"Gu......"
"I hear you left the Demons alone. It's like abandoning this city. I don't work with people like that, I don't sell merchandise."
The endorsement was raised that it was so from all around, as to follow the words of a man who said it was kippy.
Soon, they were making a little noise.
There was a crowd, and it was getting noticeable.
"I can't believe you won't help me when I have to, while naming me a brave man...!
"You were on your own... too selfish!
"I know who was half threatened by these people!
"Are you really going to crusade the Demon King? Didn't you leave the other day's chemicals out on purpose too!?
The Arios and the others fled in the face of people's accusations.
"Goddamn it... can these people keep me here! Let's go."
"Wait, Arios. There's still food..."
"I don't care what that is. If you have to, you can procure locally. Being here any longer is unpleasant!
"Wow, I get it"
People who abhor their voices in anger so that they spit out what they've endured all at once.
Arios and the others followed the city of Horizon to flee.
