"... the village I live in... no. The village where I lived, right... it was a peaceful and peaceful village with nothing..."

The story of Ribble started with that.

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

It was a village that really had nothing, but it still never said it was extremely poor, and it also said it was a village that had planned to store up to survive the winter and the time of inactivity, not replacing it, but had a happy life.

It has neither a population nor a hundred people, to the extent that it has dozens of small houses in a row, but it was nevertheless possible to do so because it was an area with relatively few demons.

"... by the way, what part of the village is that?

"The village of Krask arrives in a day from Malt towards the west. Along the Nellis River... oh, around here."

When I spread the map along the way to show it, Ribble nodded and made a point.

Villages and towns near Malt are more or less in my head, but I never heard of this Krask village.

"That's a village you don't hear much about, huh? I also try to check the geography of the villages around here on a regular basis..."

"...... very few village people came to Malt in the first place, and all the village crops and specialties were left to the pedestrians to trade, so maybe very few people knew. There was so much going on in the village that... there wasn't much interaction... there was so much between us and the nearby town."

"I see..."

A closed village, I guess.

If that's the case, I don't have to know, or I can't buy it into boulders until it's a village place that doesn't go up anybody's mouth.

But even though it's quite close to Malt, it's really surprising.

I do understand that there is a town nearer to that area than Malt, so I didn't try to go any further...

Well, not many villages even exist that only local humans know.

Its existence cannot be hidden if it is as large as the town, but in the village behind the woods......

It's just good to know this time.

If there's any business going on around here, I'll keep it in my head as a place to rest.

"But you didn't often want to be bought by a trafficker in that condition, did you? To say you're less worried about storing means you're getting a reciprocal deal there, right?

Such a small village, because there are intellectual disparities with pedestrians, is susceptible to swallowing contracts at unfair prices and other unfavourable conditions.

Sometimes it can be monopolized in such a way than there are no other merchants to come. Any lucky pedestrian who can hold a number of such villages will eventually be able to save money and set up a chamber of commerce...

The world is intelligent, though not a praised way of doing it.

Something you don't know, something you don't want to know is bad, so...

If you want to, you can go out of town, know the right standards, negotiate with the pedestrians, and go to a big town and sell yourself.

Nevertheless, it was surprising that even though that was the majority of what would happen if you were in a state like the village of Ribble, you seemed to have lived a full life even if you didn't say you were ever rich.

That's what my question means.

Ribble on this,

"He's a very honest pedestrian who's coming to me. We're not that stupid either, so we talked a lot about the amount and terms of the deal after looking at the sale price of the goods in town. In view of that, I found that you are trading on terms that are quite advantageous to the people in our village..."

"Well, that's lucky."

Well, there are people in the world who are stupid and honest sometimes.

That's why the Alliance of Adventurers sometimes has a request for a single piece of copper coin.

"So... there's a demon in such a village... Was it Skeleton, the boner?

"Yeah. What I saw was Bone Man Skeleton. At first it was just the whole thing, so I managed to take down the weapon with the will of the village...... or the farm tools, but then I found out there were more numbers...... it was too late when I realized. The last time I saw it was five bodies...... because when it comes to that many boulders, the villagers are not the only ones to deal with...... to abandon the village...... now the women and children are dispersed in nearby towns and villages to get away. The men are watching the village from afar..."

It's a common story.

Demons are quite a few species that should doubt the existence of multiple bodies once they are seen in their entirety.

Goblins are typical of that.

And so does the boner Skeleton.

Things are different again in the labyrinth, but that's what happens if you're outside.

Because goblins are what make herds and increase, and the boner Skeleton is the immortal Undead… that is, the existence in which they are ready to be born but are therefore emerging there.

So there's a good chance that many others are born.

I don't know why, but somewhere around the village of Ribble, that kind of environment would have been put in place.

You should have asked the Adventurers' Union Guild at the time you found the hell out, I suppose.

Still, it must have been an English break to abandon the village before the damage was greater.

Often because it is normal for villagers to come together and face each other, to kill them all, without a decision to abandon the village.

The villagers also know the horror of demons, but they still can't abandon their ancestral lands.

To say that human behavior is not rational.

Compared to examples like that, the Ribbles are extremely smart.

You let a girl and child get away with it.

Worst of all, I guess I'm even anticipating living ahead of you and becoming a resident there.

As for the man...... I guess he's still untrained to the village.

Ribble would say he came to the Adventurers Union "Guild" with his last hope on behalf of such villagers.

Well, have you heard the most important thing about this?

Crusade of several boners "skeletons" that emerged in the village.

However, there may be other problems.

We need to examine the roots and say no.

If you can't, you should also keep in mind to call for backup......

Now the Adventurers' Union Guild looks busy and that won't be easy either, but I have Lorraine.

If there's nothing I can do, I can ask for it.

That's all I thought about, I said to Ribble.

"... All right, all right. Ribble, I'll take your request."

and.
