A small pioneering village at the foot of Mount Gessen was on fire.

“Argh!”

Screams everywhere.

The shouts of excited men burst into flames.

“Kill them all! ”

“It's a girl! She's so young. ”

“Keep that! ”

“What about the kid?”

“Kill it! It's annoying! ”

A group of armed men put spears in the backs of the helpless villagers.

It does not cover men and women and even children, but it kills them generously.

Even the Devil of Hell, there were unbelievable villains.

But their identities are just a bunch of ordinary bandits before and after level 20.

Even if it is not intermediate among hunters, it is no different for ordinary people.

The leader of the bandits, Jacqueline, smiles as she watches the burning village.

“Hhh, this is more of a business than catching monsters crawling out of the dungeon. ”

I used to dream of Hunter.

No, he was a godfather to the members of the Jacqueline.

However, Hunter's path was difficult and harsh.

On the other hand, the enjoyment of alcohol, gambling and women was much sweeter.

I became increasingly indebted to the pleasures, touched by smuggling and theft to pay off the debt, and then I became a wanted man and finally fled here.

Nevertheless, they repeat the same thing, targeting those who are weaker than themselves.

Those who are once bitten by evil can never change their personality.

Jacqueline was looting HangChang Village.

“Evil bandits! ”

A middle-aged man shows up wearing light armor and swinging his spear.

A thief falls by the spear and sprinkles blood.

“Ugh!”

It was a skilled spear.

I thought I'd be a level 15 warrior with a measuring stone.

It wasn't the only one.

The other young men of the village went out with spears.

“Teacher!”

“We'll be fine too! ”

Whether they have learned martial arts from middle-aged men or not, they speak similar spells and intercept in front of bandits.

They would be roughly 7? 8 if only at the level of the warrior.

These were the town's vigilantes.

Young people in pioneering villages who do hard work, even though they are only tribal, are not easily ignored if they have mastered martial arts.

Especially if the numbers are similar.

Nevertheless, Zacról laughed.

“How dare the mountain worms reveal their teeth? ”

Zacról swung his sword and cut off the leading youth.

The black light flashes and blood is scattered.

“Big Billion! ”

“Argh!”

He was a level 21 inspector.

A spearheader who can't reach level 10 can make you laugh.

No matter how dangerous it is to be besieged by many more human beings, Jacqueline doesn't care.

Immediately shouts the starter language with a shield out.

“Magic Arrow! ”

The magic arrows of the three stalks flew and struck the youth.

The young men groaned and stumbled on a heavy blow.

Jacqueline cuts three more young men in a collapsed position.

“Die, you weaklings! Hahaha!”

You must be a warrior, Jacqueline, using magic.

There is only one thing this means.

“Horse tools!”

“Damn it! I'm wearing a magic item! ”

Jacqueline's shield was the lowest level horsepower from the Magic Arrow Shield, Dungeon.

However, even the lowest level Horse Tool is eligible for use at least Level 20.

“You guys are full of stuff, hoo-hoo. ”

Borrowing magical powers, Jacqueline slaughters the vigilante youth.

Looking at their wretched end, the village chief, who was dying, asked hard.

“Uh, why are you doing this? We made a payment this month...

To protect the village, the chief was constantly paying the repayment.

Even the payment was lower than the tax paid to the lord, so it was better this way.

It is profitable to draw money from the position of the bandits, so I have not touched them in the meantime.

But why are you suddenly doing this?

“Oh, things have changed. Arghhhhhh.”

Jacqueline shrugs with a smile.

“Senior level hunters are coming to subdue us? So we have to hide ourselves for a while, because we can't stand a few pennies for that. ”

These pioneering villages do not have the military power of the lord, unlike the villages within the enclaves that pay taxes and are guaranteed safety.

And even the dizzy senior hunters don't come to this unprofitable area.

But sometimes, there are those who burn in the sense of justice.

“In that case, you must buy yourself. ”

So Zacröll planted a shovel in Heiten, and from time to time, he was getting information through his preludes.

If the subjugation comes, you'll know right away.

“So grumble against those mischievous bastards. We wouldn't have done this without them. ”

There was no confrontation with the chief.

He had already died of excessive bleeding.

“Now, you bastards! We've got everything we need, so it's provisional for now! ”

Jacqueline cheerfully shouts, encouraging his men.

“As long as the collaborators of the good churches are in vain, we can relax and drink and play with women! ”

Ryuhanbin and Artis were walking the mountain path.

“Jacques Kroll is the boss, and he has about 30 members. ”

Hanbin filed a complaint recalling the information that he had heard from the Shrine of Emil.

I can't say there are fewer of them.

Only two of them are going to take care of it.

“If this was Earth, it would be ridiculous. ”

It is common sense in modern districts to put at least twice as much police force into clearing out street gangs.

However, this world is much larger than the individual force gap, so this side is rather normal.

“Even if it were the Middle Ages, the situation would be similar. ”

In fact, Latna is much worse on the continent than the medieval district.

This world exists with transcendent powers such as magic or comeback, and its abilities vary greatly according to individual abilities.

Moreover, Horse Tools cannot be used if the level is not high.

The gap in combat power between humans is much worse than on Earth, and even the most deadly weapons can only be dealt with by those who are highly combative?

‘An adult and a child are fighting, and only an adult can shoot a firearm. ’

It is also possible to slaughter dozens of low-level people by themselves if the level is equally high.

“Anyway, it doesn't seem to be a big deal, so we should deal with it and increase the church contribution. ”

? * *

Ryuhanbin realised that he took things too lightly.

“Hahahahang!”

“Ouch……

Tens of thousands of villagers were crying in the burnt mountain village.

They barely survived the Jacqueline raid.

There are corpses everywhere.

I can see a well-baked child in the burning ashes.

The expression "atrocious" will be insufficient to describe this spectacle.

Having lost his word, Hanbin was just making a stiff face.

For him who had lived in Korea in the 21st century, it was a sight he only occasionally saw beyond the screen.

But the reality was different with two eyes.

On the other hand, Artis was investigating whether this situation was familiar to the survivors.

“Where do they come from? You know the approximate location. ”

The villagers were not very cooperative.

“Because of you! ”

“Why did you break in and make this happen?! ”

“We were living well! ”

Rather, he spreads hatred and resentment to the two men who came to subdue the bandits.

If they hadn't stepped forward, Zacról would have just retreated with the payment as usual.

He comforts them, sometimes under pressure, and Artis figures out where the Jacqueline is based.

And I left town right away.

After crossing his head, Vienna sighed deeply.

“Ha, is it our fault? ”

Artis shook his head decisively.

“Those thieves would have done this, even if we hadn't stepped up. ”

“But the villagers...

It is not a good thing to expect thanksgiving.

But naturally, it is also true to imagine yourself defeating thieves and being appreciated by people.

I had no idea I would suffer such hatred and resentment.

Artis asked me to sweeten Hanbin.

“We cannot expect reason from those who have lost everything. It's normal for them to resent everything in the world. How can you blame that? ”

Nevertheless, defeat the bandits and save those captured.

Because that's Dory.

“What a waste. ”

“Traditional fishing is futile. ”

Artis smiled.

“That's why it's even more valuable. ”

Ryuhanbin looked at the red-headed young man with a fresh eye.

Though, it was originally of this nature.

Isn't that why he trusts this human dragon?

I tried to throw my life to keep my promise to Erik Garun, a petty Level 5 inspector.

Artis urged Hanbin.

“Let's go after them. We have to save the captured women. ”

“Yes.”

Ryuhanbin's eyes began to twitch.

*

?

*

A furious cry roars through the mountains.

“You bastards! ”

At the same time, the Black Great Sword is lowered.

A large wooden house collapses and trembles.

Kwaaaang

Nevertheless, the living quarters were quiet.

No one popped out.

Artis had his tongue full.

“You've all fled. ”

Jacqueline's home was empty.

I knew two people were coming and I hid them somewhere else.

Ryuhanbin blew up the house just because he was angry.

Hanbin murmured calmly.

“This is why a group of thieves can be cool even though the high-ranking levels in Heiten enjoy it. ”

No matter how high the level, it would take months to scour this vast Gessen Mountain to find them.

It takes too much time and effort, even if you have enough power to defeat bandits.

Therefore, if the Punitive Force gives up hiding while dragging time, it crawls out again and attempts to plunder nearby.

This is similar to the western pioneering era.

The land is too wide and there are too few people, so there is little control over the state.

Looking back at Artis, Ryuhanbin asked.

“What do I do? I want to take my time to catch these guys. ”

“If there's any way to track them down, it's impossible. If you're a senior astrologer, you can use the tracking technique...

Ryuhanbin is a warrior and Artis is a wizard.

I don't know how to use a trace.

“Then why don't you hire a senior counselor who can do the tracking? ”

There was a lot of money anyway.

I wanted to get rid of them, even with the smack money.

Ryuhanbin was so angry with the town's catastrophe.

Artis shakes his head.

“Tracking is a high-level 60 trick. Heiten doesn't have that strong an astrologer. ”

“Shit, how are we supposed to track them? ”

It was time for Ryu Hanbin to mutter as he grinds his teeth.

Suddenly a text of light appeared before my eyes.

Use Tracking Skills?

“Huh?”

The guidelines have been activated without delay.

Further explanations were also made shortly.

Tracking Skill: Exploring the debris of the target to determine the approximate direction of the current position. Can be used once every 6 hours.

Hanbin stared at the message.

“…… were there features in the guidelines? ”
