"Phew, phew, phew."

There was a small elf at the bow of a dirt boat created by himself, singing his nose in an upbeat mood.

Its name is Mertella.

I once tried to be one of the brave Lyons in an attempt to crusade the Demon King, but when I was turned down, I went back to my hometown amazingly, and for a hundred years on my own tower, I was a tragic hero who was pulling cages (?).

"Ha..."

It is the legendary brave Lion the person who sighs watching her like that.

However, he has been reincarnated and is now a child.

A twin sitting on both sides looks strangely at Lion, who is sinking sometime.

These are the children of the beasts that Lyon protected from the abominable slave traders and named Alc, Illis.

"Rio, Daijibu?

Slime's Sura looks worried somewhere, too.

As usual, he rode over Lion's head and shook his body plumply.

Mertella looked back smiling and blamed such a lion.

"What are you looking so stinky about?"

"Whose fault do you think it is?"

Lion stares at Mertella half-eyed.

If it were true, I wouldn't have been willing to keep such a dangerous elf company.

But he threatened to speak of Lion being the same person as the brave Lion, and had no choice but to respond.

"It's already been decided! Give it up! It's not cool for a man who could be a legendary brave man to twitch forever!

I can't hide my joy behind my blaming mouth.

Previously, when confronted in the tower of Cedria, he said he was dewning his anger at Lion, but his attitude had changed.

"... why do you seem so happy?

"This wonderful weather, and pleasant breeze! It's only natural for anyone to feel better!

Mertella lets you try to widen your eyes with short arms.

When Lion looked up into the sky, he was caught and the twins looked up as well.

"No, regardless of the wind, it's as cloudy as I think it is?

"Don't worry about the details! Note that I'm never happy to have been one of your lords for over a hundred years! Don't get me wrong around here!

"Yes, sir."

What a deliberate claim Mertella was.

"So where are we going?

I come to Lyon with my eyes shining.

"Quickly, demon king crusade?

"No, the Demon King is gone."

"Mm, did I? Then even the Evil Dragon will go to defeat it! Or go to the demon world and hunt even advanced demons? Damn, if you and your lord were frightened, you wouldn't be afraid of any opponent!

It is a motivated Mertella.

"Bye!

"Yawn!"

Inspired by that, the twins have sparkled their eyes, too, but of course I didn't plan on doing that to Lion.

"The only thing that's decided for now is to leave this country. I've become too famous for a lot of things."

It will no longer be difficult to continue the adventure quietly in this country, even if Mertella does not preach the secrets of Lion.

Having so decided, Lion decided to flee the country.

This country is the birthplace for Rion in this world, but from previous life it is only one of several countries.

There was no resistance to going to exotic lands.

"Hmm, when it becomes a foreign country close to here, it is the Holy King of Lümel to the west. With this dirt ship, we can cross the border by sundown."

That's what Mertella says to accelerate the dirt boat.

That's just the main house with less vibration, going beyond without difficulty even on some slopes.

"" Mano!

The twins realize it and raise their voices.

Seeing, there were multiple demons in the direction of progress.

A bunch of goblins.

"" Yes!

As the twins jump off the ship, they cooperate and defeat the goblins.

As soon as I was done cleaning it up, I came right back to the ship.

"You don't have to deal with goblins, do you?

"No, I could attack people if I left them alone. It took me just around the corner, and you're right to knock it down. Well done."

"" Mm. "

As Lion stroked his head, the twins broke their faces happily.

"Grunt..."

It was Mertella who sees it and somehow seems to regret it.

"Mm-hmm? What's that!

After a while, now Mertella realizes something.

When Lion turns his gaze, he only looks about the bean grain because he's still at a distance, but apparently he's a population of people.

It's not unusual.

Because it's a path often taken by caravans heading west.

However, things were a little strange.

"Are you fighting demons"

With [Bandit King] 's high eyesight, Lion recognizes the situation.

Apparently, the merchants were being attacked by demons.

What we're attacking is a bunch of wolf demons.

It appears that the warriors of the escorts hired by the merchants are responding, but are struggling considerably with a herd of wolves that can be attacked by a high degree of collaboration.

"This has to be helped!

Mertella says happily for some reason.

"Now leave it to the woes! It's okay, those twins! Your lords are useless!

When Mertella nailed the twins like that, she let the dirt ship go straight into the battlefield.

"Hey, what is it?

"Ship!?

"Here, there's a kid on board, huh?

The merchants, who were trembling on the carriage, noticed this one and shouted surprise.

From the perspective of those who certainly don't know, the Lions will only seem to be a group of children.

"Earth pile!

What Mertella unleashed unchanging is the earthly magic of her specialty.

"" "Gah!?

Many piles protruding suddenly from the ground pierce the bodies of the wolves one after the other.

So the flock, which had more than ten bodies, was almost destroyed.

"" "Wow!?

A few who are lucky enough to escape a direct hit find themselves in a sudden state of affairs and try to escape at first sight.

"You can't let him get away with this! Stonebarrette!"

"" "~ Huh!?

Direct hit to the heads of the wolves where the stone debris tried to escape.

He pierced his skull and gently pruned his life.

If you noticed, the wolf herd had been wiped out.

"This is the place!

Mertella comes looking at Lion with a rough nose.

But when Lyon was still watching, he got angry for some reason.

"Hey, why don't you praise me for the woes!?

You're not a child...

Yes, in his heart, Lion sighed heavily.
