Episode 413: Towers and Colleges, Street Demons

We defeated Hobgoblin. We quickly take out the Demon Stone on the spot.

This is a familiar task.

If it's about Hobgoblin, I've fought the boulder more than once, and I know exactly where the demon stone is.

I wonder how I can take it out easily.

In the case of Hobgoblins, they are directly beneath the heart, so stick a dagger around them and you'll see.

And that's not just me, it's Lorraine and Augley.

Lorraine has a demolition diagram of most of the demons in her head from her knowledge as that scholar.

Plus, I've worked enough as an adventurer in Malt.

It's like a hobgoblin demolition.

And Augley too.

Now I'm in the silver class, but the years I was in the bronze class are never short.

Hobgoblin is a fairly high-selling demon in the bronze class.

It is a good source of income, and I could naturally say that I am used to dismantling this.

"... something like this"

Generally, he dismantled all the ten or so hobgoblins that were around him, took out the demonic stones and collected them in one place, and then said so as Augley exhaled.

It doesn't mean I'm tired, but the situation where Hobgoblin's body was scattered across the street is not very pleasant.

It will look like after a demon strikes you.

That's what I said, it would be mild mental fatigue.

That said, I'm really freaking out when I see a situation where people are attacked by demons and it's too late, there's no way.

It's more common if you're a young, inexperienced adventurer, but we passed that a long time ago.

It doesn't mean I don't think anything at all, but I can dare to keep my heart as quiet as it is.

"Right. There is no other material that can be taken from the Demon Stone... but there will be no demand in Wangdu. I don't even think I can sell it, and I'm gonna burn it down."

After Lorraine says so, she casts a spell, attributing all the piled bodies to ashes.

If this is a forest or something, you can leave the body as it is, but this is a street.

I have trouble smelling it and the demons come together.

In some cases, there may be powerful demons sitting in front of such bodies.

When that happens, the streets will be closed to traffic and people will be restricted from coming and going until demons are crusaded.

It is not accumulated for anyone and therefore dispose of it as soon as possible in the event of the appearance of demons in the streets to prevent that from happening.

Most adventurers have a spark, even if they don't have one that can use magic.

If it is not possible, carry it away from the street and fill it.

It's a hassle, but I can't help it.

That just doesn't happen all that often.

I understand that people pass near the streets, because I understand demons with some intelligence, and I also know that there are few powerful adventurers.

The Knights and others often come to the exercises, especially for streets with large cities like Wang Du, which tend to be unnecessarily so.

Nonetheless, it was uncommon for hobgoblins to appear in as many as ten herds, and not as detached individuals.

"... there's probably even a demon territory dispute in the woods around here."

Did Lorraine think the same thing about me, too, and she pouts and says so.

"Maybe, but I don't want to check. Maybe we should go into the woods and check it out if it's true, but there's no villages or settlements around here. Besides, if the hobgoblin level is enough to escape, it doesn't mean it's that serious."

I answer, Lorraine,

"I don't know. It could be the beginning of something big. When goblinking arises, it begins with a dispute between small flocks of goblins. At first, it was just a little bit of a goblin skirmish, but later on, when you think about it, it was a sign of goblin kings, and so on."

Sure, that's true, but it's a little extreme.

Augley flaunts her shoulders on this,

"When I say that, I don't have any kiri. Any catastrophe is a small omen... but if you think about it in association with everything and check it out, you'll be completely out of hands."

That's what I said, but of course Lorraine knew that.

Smile and nod,

"You're absolutely right. I don't think I should confirm it at this stage either. It's about possibilities."

"I hope so... because if you can't accomplish my request, I'll be in trouble."

Augley's response is a joke.

If there is really any major problem looming, Augley is not as small a man as he cares about not fulfilling his request for it.

"If that's the case, you can move on... oh?

"Husband!

I looked back because I heard voices coming from behind, and there I saw a carriage and a middle-aged man manipulating it and coming this way.

This time, he's the guy who's doing the carriage guy he sent me on to get to my destination.

With the name Ya Tool, I can still tell if it's a professional pattern or if you have a well worked out body.

Though, of course, I don't specialise in combat, not enough to stand around with weapons against a flock of ten hobgoblins.

They stopped when they sensed a horde of hobgoblins waiting in the direction of the carriage, and we got out of the carriage and moved on and decided to take them down.

Though I was behind there so much that I couldn't see him, I guess the man saw the smoke burning demons up, too.

That's why I came here voluntarily.

"... did you get rid of all the demons?

That's what Ya Tool, who came just before, asked us, so he nods and answers.

"Oh. You had about ten hobgoblins. The demon stone took it, and the body burned. The Demon Stone... Buy it?

This yatool is not just a carriage owner, it is basically a merchant.

From now on, we have a small settlement that will serve as a base for the time being and a route to and from the King's Capital.

Of course, that doesn't seem to make me say I go that often because I shouldn't just eat it...

My words, Ya Tool,

"Ooh!? Are you sure? Hobgoblin's Demon Stone sells pretty well, so I appreciate it... I think it would be more expensive to sell it at the Adventurers Union (Alliance), huh?

In fact, that would be right.

It's just not that expensive, and there's no reason to say that there's a lot of damage if you sell it here.

I also have the feeling that it would be better for the world to sell it to Yatool, who regularly passes the trade route close to half volunteers.

I am also convinced in advance that if I take it with Lorraine and Augley, I will sell it to Ya Tool, so there is no particular problem.

Of course, if they refused, they would have honestly sold it at the Adventurers Union (Alliance).

I snorted at Yatool's words,

"Fine. Well, not all of it."

"No, no, I don't mind that at all. Thankful......"

I'm gonna use the rest, or Lorraine's gonna use it for alchemy.

So that's Lorraine's share.

I gave Yatool the demon stone, received the price and divided it equally between me and Augley for three pieces at a time.

So, the cost of the other one was just spent on dinner when I got back to the city.

I think it's too strict, but when I look at it like this, a lot of things come in.

We'll be fine, you may say, but we'll still separate them.

Then when we make sure the demon is completely carbide, we get back on the carriage carriage.

The whip of Yatool entered the horse, and the carriage, again, went down the street.
