Middle-aged Adventurer Kein’s Good Deed

66. To the wasteland of the north

The witch Maya and the sword princess Anastrea were walking further north from the city of Ern across Mount Kuko and Mount Side in order to exterminate the fleeing demon king army.

"Cold, lonely place."

"The end of the world."

The northern end of the continent is a complete barren zone called Heather Waste Land (Ha 'i).

The earth in this land is dead.

Intensely acidic soils are not suitable for cultivation or for livestock.

Desertification is barely stopped by the only shrub plant that grows even in the waste land known as Heather.

It is also told that this Heather wasteland, the ancient battlefield of the gods and cursed by the blood of God, became a cursed barren land as a result of the use of the weapon of death made by ancient civilizations.

There are various theories, but the truth is, I don't even know about erudite Maya.

There is only the fact that, since prehistoric times, it has been abandoned as a huge vacant land that cannot be used as a pioneering ground by any means.

"So, there's really a demon king army lurking in here?

"Well, it should be. Ask Tetra, who did the Beast Warlord, what's north of Mount Side."

Maya spreads the map.

To the west of Mount Side, where the Demon King's Army was originally lurking, lies the kingdom of the Benelux Lowlands, which thrives in the shipping industry, and to the east the ancient forests inhabited by elves.

"We've been looking all over the old woods, haven't we?"

Already, in search of the lost Demon King's Army, the Mayas were searching for the ancient woods.

There were a lot of monsters that could be defeated with that, but I didn't see any Demon King Army executives at all.

"Well, if the demon king's army had gone to the kingdom of Benelux and plundered it, we'd know as soon as it got fussy, so I thought it was an ancient forest."

The demons that make up the Demon King's Army, as well as warcraft and monsters, basically live by looting.

He thought he was lurking in an ancient forest rich in food sources because there was nothing to loot in this wasteland in the north.

"Even demons and monsters eat dinner."

"Saya."

So it's natural to assume that there can't be a demon king army here.

"If I were here, how would I live?"

Instead of monsters, wasteland where no one is found.

"If you're hiding, there's only the ground to do it. Let's see if there's a cave around here."

"Cave. Hey. Then let's do this because it's a hassle."

The sword princess waves the divine sword down powerfully to the ground.

Then, Zubabababa and the ground tear apart.

"Wow. Waste land. Yeah, but it's lame."

"'Cause it's hard to find one. I'm gonna keep going!

Whenever the sword princess waves her sword, the shock waves fly and the ground of the waste land flies through the mess.

Well, I hope no one has any trouble with the waste land being cultivated...

"Oops, bingo ya"

In several sword princess slaughters, something like a giant cavity was discovered from the ripped ground.

Apparently, it's a newly created dungeon.

In the dungeon, the goblins, who apparently were collecting cave mushrooms, are making a gaggling noise.

"I wanted to be there. In the meantime, they're gonna kill me."

A sword princess who jumps right into the cavity and heads to the monster exorcism.

I'll take care of that one, and Maya will check on the dungeon.

"I see, I guess so. The only barren thing is the surface, can we eat rice if we build a production base in the ground? I didn't know what we did was ever going to come up with anything as simple as this."

Oh, my God, it seems the Demon King's Army fed the grown cave mushrooms to boar shaped warcraft and even did the livestock imitation.

It is like a dwarf living in a mine.

I had no idea we were building a dungeon like this in the basement of a wasteland that everyone thought was worthless.

What the hell was the plan that was conceived for years?

Maya, who asked Tetra about the North and expected it to be like this, was also frightened by the readiness of Demon King Dustard.

"What are you doing, Maya? Let's go."

"Oh, I'll be right there"

This, you should just put Keri on.

Kane's neighborhood is protected by Tetra, the Beast Warlord.

Maya, who can't even beat Demon King Dustard in terms of readiness, was preaching the threat of Demon King's Army and sending the Royal Army to the city of Ern to guard her.

On top of that, even the Virgin Sephilia was left behind, but she felt a strange heartbeat.
