◆Knolve◆

After breaking up with Lex, we came to the first destination, Isla Village.

"Well, in the towns and villages that have come on a pilgrimage, you have to solve the problems of the villagers, right?"

"Oh, yes."

I don't know when Lex and the others will meet, so I'll double-check with Tracy what we're going to do.

"I'm telling you, brother, before you come, let's solve the problems of the villagers!"Hey, you there! Is there something you're in trouble for?! "

So, no, I just rushed to the villagers where Gyro-kun was talking about something.

"Whoa!? Whoa? What the hell is that?!"

"We have to help people in need."Is there anything you're worried about? "

"I'm in trouble... ah, you're part of the pilgrimage." I'm surprised. "

The villagers who noticed that we were participants in the pilgrimage nodded that they were satisfied.

No, I didn't know you were a participant, because people are always coming in like freaks.

"Ah, hahah..."

In other words, the people in this village were stuck wondering if there was anything wrong with them every time the pilgrimage was held.

I wonder if that's the only thing that's bothering you.

"That's right... no, no, that's not true!"

Ah, the villagers almost nodded.

"Anyway, thank you very much for the honesty of the participants."I have troubles. I mean, right now, we're all worried about what to do with it. "

It was the old man who was the village chief who answered that question.

Apparently, there was something troubling me that was easy to understand.

That said, it's not good to say that those who serve God are just right.

Anyway, we decided to listen to the troubles of the people in the village.

"Actually, there's a forest going in that direction from this village for a while..."

That said, Grandpa points in a slightly different direction from where we came from.

Huh? I'm sure it's that way...

"The young man from the village who went there to collect medicinal herbs came back in a hurry because a large number of monsters had settled in the forest."Fortunately, thanks to the monsters, the younger crowd didn't get hurt. "

Oh, this is the forest that Lex and the others went to.

"Given the distance to the forest, I might wonder when a monster will come to the village."So I was worried about what was going on. "

Certainly, I was scared that I didn't know when a monster would attack me.

However, I am a little concerned about that.

Didn't you talk to the participants of the pilgrimage?

Yes, I think it would be logical to consult with the participants of the pilgrimage that came before us......

That's why, when I wanted to ask for it, there was no one there anymore.

"" "" "" "Eh!?" "" ""

Did you leave the village without anyone solving the big problem that the village is being attacked by monsters?!

Well, the younger crowd came back from the forest only after the participants in the pilgrimage left by bad luck.

"Even if you're unlucky, you've got a lot of luck..."

Indeed, it is unlucky to say that you did not receive the greatest benefit of your pilgrimage in a short amount of time.

"That's why I've been thinking about what to do with things in the village."Either we build a wall around the village to protect it, or we abandon the village and flee to another town. ”

"Village!? Are you serious?!"

Abandoning the village is a decision that needs to be made.

The same is true of the village where we lived, because there are houses and fields that everyone has worked hard to build, and it is not easy to throw them away.

"Of course, I don't mean to move to another town."I was going to send my troops to the Holy City and ask them to defeat the monsters.However, the village is likely to be attacked before the Crusaders arrive from the Holy City, so we need to escape or fortify our defenses. "

Is that what you're saying?

However, even if you escape, you may be attacked by monsters that target travelers on the street.

A group of adults will be wary of monsters, but there will be children, old people, and sick people, so even a few days of travel can be dangerous.

Thinking about it, it might be better for the less powerful to fortify the village.

"I don't think Rex and the others are going to see it, but considering the monsters on the way, I'm worried about the monsters that came out of the forest."Thinking about it, do we need to create a rugged solution to protect the village? "

However, in Mina's words, the village chief shook his head to the side.

"No, considering the number of monsters I saw in the village, I can't prevent them with a little sturdy fence."More robust, that's the wall that protects the city. "

"Well, a wall that protects the town!? Such a large-scale construction!?"

Hmm, I want a wall made of stone or some sturdy material that's as tall as a house, not a tree if you can.

"Moreover, it's a sturdy wall at the same height as the house!?"

I don't know if Tracy screamed at the village chief's request.

After all, when it comes to building so many walls.....

"A sturdy wall at the same height as a house is something that experts take the time to build!? How long would it take to make it just for us amateurs..."

Well, that's the wall of the fort.

"What should I do...?"

Tracy enters the room with a bewildered look on her face.

That's what happens, isn't it? This is not something that can be done entirely by traveling humans anymore.

But on a pilgrimage, you have to solve the troubles of those in need.

Abandoning the villagers in this situation would be tantamount to abandoning the pilgrimage.

... Best of all, I can't abandon the people of the village as a priest.

"I see... after that, you'll have to escort the village to the sacred city or nearby town, and in the meantime, you'll have to ask the temple to subdue the monsters."And then I'll have time to pack my things..... "

“No, then I think I can handle it.”

Huh?

In my words, the village chief and Tracy roll their eyes. [M]

It's good to have a stone wall that covers the village, right?

First of all, I will check with the village chief again before I do anything wrong. [M]

"Um, um. But as your lady said, isn't that something you can do on your own?"

"Y-yeah, that's right! A big, sturdy wall that protects a village or town is a job that artisans spend months and years on!?"

Certainly, forts and large towns have a large number of craftsmen and workers, so they can be made relatively quickly.

However, the number of artisans in this village is unlikely to be high.The same was true of the village we lived in.

Even if you let the villagers help you, non-expert people will experience unevenness in building walls.

Then it would be difficult to withstand the monster's attack.

Particularly problematic is that even if a wall is formed, the material used as a connection cannot fully demonstrate its hardness unless it is completely dried.

But I can solve all those problems now.

Well, keep an eye on it.

I float with flying magic to see the whole view of the village.

"And I'm flying!?"

"Hee, people are flying!?"

"Eh!? What's going on?!"

I heard a surprising voice from the villagers on the ground and thought I'd done it a little bit, but let's reflect on that later.

We need to defend the village first.

... hmm, is the size of the village like this?

Including the fields... I think we should have a little more room for the expansion of the village in the future.

“At this size, it's going to be easier than the Elf Homeland. Grand Circle Torchka!!”

When I activated the magic, the ground around the village rose up and a thick stone wall protruded from it.

"Ohhhhh!?"

"Hey, hey, hey, hey, what's going on!?"

Then, after confirming that I had secured enough height, I disarmed my magic and descended to the ground.

"The installation of the wall is finished."

"" "Eh?" ""

"It would be nice to have a wall about the height of a house, right?"How about this? "

"Um, um? No, isn't that okay...?"

Upon checking with the village chief, he nodded that he had no problem looking at the wall covering the village.

Well, the experience of building magical barriers when defending the Elf Homeland seems to be alive.

Thanks to the small scale, it was helpful that the magic power consumption was not significantly different even if the material was made of stone instead of soil.

I just need the entrance, so I want the gate.

As expected, if I covered everything with a stone wall, it would be difficult to get in and out, so I drilled a hole in the wall along the street at the entrance and exit.

I told you, I'm going to cut down the tree I use for the gate!

That said, this time Gyro-kun flew somewhere with his magic.

"" "" "I flew again!?" ""

"After that, it's time to make a gate."But building a sturdy and big gate is a hassle... yes! "

Mina jumps up as she looks at the entrance and thinks about something.

"" "" "I flew again!?" ""

Clay Control!

When Mina used her magic, the sound of something moving outside the village echoed.

“What did you do?”

"I built a moat around the outer perimeter of the wall."And there's a hydrowave!! "

In addition, Mina began to emit large quantities of water by magic around the village.

”Whoaaa!?”

The people of the village shouted in amazement at the sight of a waterfall falling to the side.

"Okay, now we have a moat to protect the village."All you have to do is wait for Janet to bring the lumber. "

Is it a moat to the extent that it is formed?

It's simple, but it's a good combination to use with a wall.

It can also be used to buy time until the gate is completed.

"I'm home! Why don't you do something like this?"

A few moments later, Gyro-kun came home carrying a number of trees.

"Nah!? He's carrying a tree!?"

"C 'mon!? And I'm carrying a lot of them!?"

"How strong is that girl!?"

Young girls come home carrying thousands of big trees, and the people in the village shout again with amazement.

Hmm, we must have been surprised by Mr. Rex that way.

I can't tell you about Rex now that I'm normal.....

"Excellent work. We'll just have to use this as a board, tie it up on one side, and make a simple bridge to protect the village. The barrier is almost complete."Until the proper gate is completed, this bridge can also be used as a shield to protect the entrance. "

"N-no, to the extent that it's made..."

I've made the moat wide and deep, so be careful not to let the villagers drown.

"Um, um. I get it..."

When the carpenters in the village completed the thick simple suspension bridge, Lex and Megri arrived.

"Please wait, everyone."

"It's late, brother, sister! We've done our good deeds by ourselves"

Huh?!? That's amazing!

When Gyro-kun told me that we had already done a good deed, Rex was surprised to see his eyes open.

Heehee, well...

"What kind of good deed have you done?"

"That's how it is...."

Before that, Rex, how was the forest?

Gyro tried to tell us what happened in the village, but Mina intervened to check the situation in the forest.

Yeah, as they said, the monsters were there.

"Well, the monster!? Is that true!?"

When Lex confirmed that there was a monster in the forest, the village chief opened his eyes wide and shouted with surprise.

I thought the mayor already knew about the forest.

"Yes, but it wasn't a lot, so we defeated it."This is the evidence. "

Responding lightly, Rex piles up a large number of monster corpses from his magic bag.

"" "" Heeeee!? "" "

In a moment, Tracy and the villagers pushed their backs into the corpse of a monster that had become a pile.

Well, if you suddenly see something like that, you'll be surprised by too many surprises.

Also, don't worry, we've already exterminated the monsters we found before we came to the village!

”Hah, hahi... ah, thank you very much...”

Rex turns to Tracy as she piles up the monster's corpse again in a magic bag.

“Tracy, how far is your next destination?”

"Huh? Yes. The next destination, the town of Kasgar, is about half a day away by carriage."But from now on, it's dangerous to arrive in the middle of the night, so I was wondering if I should stay in the village tonight and leave in the morning. "

It's time for the sun to go down, and maybe we should stay overnight in this village.

"But if you do that, they'll let you go first."They're not that far away from us, and they're not going to get there in the middle of the night, are they? "

"But it's dangerous to travel out of town at night."The other temples are attended by a lot of people, so it probably won't work, but there are only seven of us. "

Certainly, numbers are an important factor when out of town.

Instead of traveling on the streets with a small group of people you know, the number of monsters approaching is different when you travel with the majority of strangers.

No, it looks like we can use the Monster Dodge Potion to get to the next town all at once.

And Lillie, who has been silent until now, has joined the conversation.

When it comes to Monster Dodge Potions, I hear that Rex commissioned their production to save a struggling village.

Because of that, a lot of people were able to travel safely, and it was a topic of discussion all over the town for a while.

"Liliera, how do you know that?"

When Mina questioned Lillie's information, Lillie answered with a smile.

“I was gathering intelligence while everyone was doing good.Then the other participants knew they were going to run through the night using Monster Dodge potions.Maybe you're going to buy us some time assuming we stay overnight in this village.Normally, it is easy to be attacked by monsters. I stay in town at night, or I can't move even if I am out in the field. "

It's true that there are not many travelers who travel at night.

They're going to keep us at a distance while we're stranded in this village.

And in order not to lag behind other participants, no, that's probably the real reason.

"Is it a Monster Dodge Potion?"I can't prepare such expensive products. "

Tracy sighed and dropped her shoulder when she heard that other temple participants were using Monster Dodge Potions.

Is the Monster Dodge Potion high?It's not supposed to be that expensive, is it? "

"Les, Laksi, the price of the goods also costs transportation"

I would like to point out that Meggli did not take into account the transportation cost to Rex who is wondering if he has his neck scratched.

"Oh, is that so?" But then we'd better hurry too. "

"Hey, Rakshi-san!" That's why it's dangerous to go now!We don't even have Monster Dodge Potion!? "

I disagree with Tracy that she should stop saying that she should continue now.

"But if you get stuck here, you won't be able to catch up forever."You may want to head to the next town.Fortunately, if we're half a day away from riding a carriage, we can get there faster. ”

Huh?

"Didn't you know about Tracy?The riding carriage is a lot slower than a regular carriage because we value riding comfort. "

"What? The riding carriage focuses on ride comfort?"

"Yes, it's about half as fast as a regular carriage."However, we can run faster than a carriage with physical strengthening magic, so I think we'll arrive in about 1/4 hour. "

My God, 1/4!?

Tracy is surprised to hear that the carriage will be half a day away in just one-fourth of an hour.

Yeah, I know how that feels.

Well then, let's go!

"Whoa!"

Yeah, I'd love to stay at a nice place if I could.

I don't like that it's always been upfront.

"Nh, I'm going to outrun you."

"Um, I'm not sure, but I'll try my best..."

To be honest, I'm worried that I'm slower than everyone else and that I used my magic power to my advantage by building a bulwark.....

"Oh, speaking of which, I've been using physical strengthening magic since this morning."Now, this is everyone's mana potions! "

"" "" "U" "" "" "

The moment Rex saw the mana potions, there was an indescribable moan in everyone's mouth.

Oh, I remember, those hellish days of special training.....

"I-I 'm scared of forced healing..."

No, no, I don't need healing magic anymore!

"I'm so warm..."

…………

"Huh? Huh? What's the matter, guys?"

Only Tracy, who didn't know what was going on, was puzzled to see us.

Come on, let's hurry.

When Rex forced us to hold the mana potions, we literally swallowed the mana potions with a bitter face.

"Ugh, that memory is coming back..."

By swallowing up the mana potions with painful memories, I was unwilling, but my magic power was restored.

I think I've lost something else.

Well then, everyone, let's go!

"" "" "" Oh, oh! "" ""

Fucuu!

So we headed for the next town.

... oh, maybe I should have stayed overnight in this village.

◆Village Chief◆

……

No one spoke.

Since the pilgrimage had been continued for many years, Tsubaki et al. were instead benefiting from each temple to facilitate the pilgrimage.

Specifically, in order to end the trials of good deeds, it was said to prepare simple troubles.

Well, nowadays other temples have asked for the same kind of convenience, so nothing good is done in our village over time.

Of course, the people in the village don't know that.

Only the village chief, Tsuji, and some of the elders knew about it.

It's no good knowing that the temples are committing such wrongs.

However, this time, not only that, but we also received orders from the priests of the trade gods to buy time by saying impossible problems to the participants who came after us.

And as I was told in advance, Tsuji asked me to build a wall to protect the village from monsters.

I didn't know that monsters lived in the forest.....

But the result was a gigantic wall that far exceeded all expectations.

It was a sturdy wall that I could not complain about. Plus, it comes with a moat.

"I can't believe it..."

I wonder if this is really realistic. When I touch the wall in front of me, I feel a cold feeling of intent.

It wasn't an illusion, it was real.

Who the hell were those guys?

I also flew and broke the sky, so maybe it was a real angel?

I don't think that's stupid.

I thought people were flying, but a rock wall grew out of the ground.

This event is not a miracle, but what the hell is it.....

"Is that really the way it is...?"

Kaoru and the others stared at the direction in which they had left in a daze. When they noticed, they knelt down without anyone else and held their hands together.

”” Haha... ””
