Episode One: Fate's Request
Three months have already elapsed since the request for escort.
I only do a few requests. The Alliance suggests a more challenging request because it seems to want the A-rank to be up there soon, but I refuse.
It is normal for requests with high difficulty to take a few days, and some lengthy ones are held for weeks.
Round trip between the library and the mansion was predominant, enough to occasionally dine with Natalie.
And today I'm having a jock at the liquor store with three adventurers I've seen for a long time.
"Nevertheless, it is already B-rank. I don't believe that kid back then."
Clada laughs lavishly as she stirs up the jock. He's a benefactor to me and a threesome adventurer who brought me to this city.
"Hey... sometime if I had received any request..."
I cheek bitterly, too.
"No, Toya, have you heard? The war between the Kingdom of Generation and the Lunette Empire has begun again, right?
"That's your first ear...... Until now, the Kingdom of Generation has attacked and every time it is pushed back by the Lunette Empire, it is a repetition, isn't it? Don't punish me..."
"That's it... this time..." The Brave Man ”is coming out. That's the strength of a monster, and he's already corrupted a few cities, right?
"- Brave man..."
Was it the man who was summoned after me then?
He did say at that time, 'I have the title of brave man'.
And that princess, she said her country could be attacked, and her own country is invading.
Glad you're not in that country...... I may not be able to return to Earth, but I guess I was right to be flown here.
With that thought in mind, listen to Clada.
"Yes, a brave man. The Lunette Empire is adjacent to this country. They have an alliance with the Empire, so they're negotiating whether to send soldiers or the country. Maybe..."
"Clada! Keep it around there. We haven't decided yet. The Empire has the most powerful Knights, so you won't lose that."
"Right...... I just heard it too, but the Knights of the Empire are rumoured to be monsters, so they won't lose. Well, let's stop this dark talk and drink! I saw Toya because of you."
Nina stopped talking about Lacuda. It's certainly just the beginning of a war, and it would be bad luck to talk about this.
Later, I leaned on the jock and stayed up late.
And I've already forgotten what we talked about in the tavern, and the day is running out.
"Mr. Toya, please, will you take this request?
Miriam has asked me for a favor trying to get a crusader's request.
"- I was going to take a crusade..."
Because I have dimensional storage (storage), crusaders can be more honest.
I've also been asked to escort you, but I refuse everything.
Whatever, Ferris will be worried.
Ferris' expression was unforgettable when he returned long after his escort.
Then I refrain from vacating the house in the long run.
"The North Forest is getting more demons. So do your research... In the north, the Lunette Empire is at war. It may relate to a lot of newcomers coming home injured..."
"... can we just investigate? You can take it if you want to take the material too."
If there are many demons, just bringing them home will be enough fruit. There was no reason to say no.
"Yes! I'm fine. I will take the survey and demon deliveries in my guild."
"Then let's take it"
Miriam has a full smile on my words.
"Good...... because lately all the senior adventurers were out of town and no one could ask for peace of mind...... The subguild master told me to 'let Toya take it', so if you can't take it..."
I laugh bitterly at that word.
Another subguild master...... I only have a bad feeling.
When I received the request, I went back to the mansion once.
The North Forest is a day's ride away by carriage. If you run through in Cocuyo, you'll arrive in a few hours, but it's hard to get home by day.
I went back to the mansion to tell Ferris that I would take the request for a stay.
Returning to the mansion, Ferris appeared immediately.
"... Toya, welcome back? That was fast."
"Ferris, I'm home. I came to tell her because I'm leaving the house vacant for about two days on a request. I'm going up to the North Forest to investigate."
"... yes... come back soon...?
He smiled at Ferris, who looked a little lonely, and said, "I'll be home soon," leaving the mansion.
Walk alongside Kokuyo until you leave the city. And then I crossed the coyote after I went through the gate.
"Cockyoo! Let's go!
Cockyoo is happy to run thoughtfully because it rings and runs away.
Mimizuru's speed goes up and he gets wind of the position he's on the bike.
It was said to be a day's distance by carriage, but it took less than two hours to reach the forest entrance.
When I get off the cocktail, I stroke my neck and hang my words of comfort.
The forest is depressed and lush, in which the main road passes towards the back of the forest.
This path leads to neighboring countries, even the Lunette Empire. There was a checkpoint along the way and I was briefed that that was the border line.
If you go through the woods, you can sneak all you want into the country, but the woods are full of demons and you can't even get a carriage through them.
Criminals and others may go through the woods, but traders who import and export are usually on a safe path.
"Why don't we just go a little deeper and then go into the woods"
Send a signal to Kokuyo and slowly take the main road. Of course, you will not fail to be alert to the surroundings with exploration (search).
While going down the main road, the presence of demons was felt everywhere a little bit from the woods.
"That's more than I thought...... Well, he said there wouldn't be that many high ranking demons out there, and you're gonna be fine"
Proceed for about fifteen minutes before descending from the cocktail, checking the equipment and stepping into the woods.
- Without even knowing we have a fateful encounter ahead of us...
