The Branded Female Fencer

Once the continent was swept away by demons called demon kings. Hundreds of demon kings existed on the continent, and they repeatedly struggled daily over the hegemony of the continent. Some species had much stronger powers than humans such as elves, giants and fairies, but even they were frightened by the threat, or neglected to fight, and lived in hiding. Especially those who had no power whatsoever, such as humans, lived only finely in the corners of the continent so as to avoid demonic kings and demons.

But the humans gradually turned to fight back. Due to the concept of 'cooperation', humans who held hands with elves and giants across the hedges between races drove the demon kings off the continent over hundreds of years. Humans who have succeeded in completely reversing their positions of man and demon will finally hold the hegemony of the continent.

But the men who became the champions of the continent now began an unstoppable feud between their fellow countrymen. Subraces, spirits, etc. who were cooperative with the original humans, such as elves and giants, watched and disappeared behind history. And not long after the demon kings were banished, this time there will be hundreds of years of war between humans involving all over the continent.

Time has passed and its long war will also come to an end. Of course, it will not fit until the skirmishes, and although there are small battles going on everywhere, the great wars that involve the whole continent are no longer there, and peace conferences will now be held in which many countries from all over the continent will participate, no longer for 20 years. We can say that we are now in a time of peace. Even if it was a peace trap, humans were about to indulge in its happiness.

Historians call this era the Tahei period. This story spells out about the female swordsman Alphilis, who continues his journey alone in this seemingly peaceful period. Where the hell does her journey go and what the hell does she leave the world? Then let's follow that trail...

"Mm-hmm..."

When I wake up with my eyes, there is a pleasant leaking day between the trees. Has it only been a month since Moi birds were seen announcing the arrival of spring? Slightly south of Nakahara, the forest here in Falte is surrounded by very pleasant cheerfulness. Well, if not, I might have cared a little bit more about the place to stay, just to say she wouldn't be obsessed with the triviality.

"Oh, I'm sorry. Instead of pillows."

It is the forest wolf who lives in this forest who is pointing his slightly sleepy black eyes down here.

"If I told you I slept with the Warcraft on my pillow, you'd probably be laughed at around Sister Anorun..."

Sister Anorn and I met all the time in the lodging town, and I got completely familiar with her face. Apparently, the way ahead is the same, and Sister, who travels east on a straight line while still praying in the town along the way, and Alphilis, who rolls the branches with his thoughts and takes the road to go today, are going to be as fast as they go.

When I left the town of Tid even three days ago, I pointed in a completely different direction than the street when I rolled the branches.

"Should I stop? You're directional tone deaf!

And while Sister told me, he stuck the niggling Sister half-way into the woods with his ass, an alphilis who was lost. The streets are also well maintained around here, and although there are no dangerous demons or warcraft that could be life-threatening if they are not separated into too deep because of the good demon crusade, it was still a land in the woods that is off the people's living quarters.

"I knew it was a cave by the river, a demon's nest..."

Even though I think so, there's a girl of her age. I couldn't beat the temptation to bathe in the water, and once I made sure there was nothing in the hole, I took my first bath in the water for three days, and when I kept my cell phone meal in my belly a little bit, I fell asleep in the hole. Then when I woke up with the roar of the beast, a forest wolf about 3m long was in front of me, he said.

"I'm glad the wolf is all alone. It would have been just as bad if I had more than one, and if my master hadn't taught me how to negotiate with demons, you'd be wandering around the woods again by now looking for a new bunk... totally, Master."

Yesterday, he beat down a fiercely fought Uemori wolf and demanded an overnight bed instead of helping him with his wounds. Forest-dwelling demons, especially those of the beast system, are submissive to what is stronger than them, and even ungrateful individuals. Forest wolves are also warm for demons, and they do not strike humans unless they wreak extreme havoc on the territory. Well, it must have been her carelessness that pissed off the wolf.

Whatever the technique of negotiating with demons, it is known that people who often come into contact with demons will show strength and sell favors with treatment and bait at the same time. This forest wolf, after being treated, looks at us with such a nostalgic eye that he stumbles upon the temptation of a fluffy fur and falls asleep with the demon on his pillow.

"I was comfortable sleeping, but... I wonder if the demons will like me. Or maybe this kid's just used to people. Even though human men don't stop by because they're locks."

I sigh unexpectedly at the sight of the fact that I was about to be exposed to bandits before, or a fellow light-hearted mercenary. Look at the forest wolf staring at it in surprise,

"Maybe you're better than a human being."

Even as I joke about things like that, I get to know myself.

"Then it's time to go. I'm sorry I kept you up all night."

Meanwhile, I'll do the wolf's throat. The gentle look she gave then would have been stunning shapes that she thought would be beautiful 9 out of 10 if a human man had seen it, but the demon couldn't have figured it out, he just seemed to feel comfortable with being throated.

"Well. Was the nearest town of Iz? It's time to get serious in town... with all the road grass lately."

and the face of Alphilis, who began to walk, is no longer the adventurer himself.

Yes, Alphilis is an adventurer who travels with a sword while being a woman. I must say that in this world where demons travel, there were no women at all who make a living with swords, but very rarely. And many of the sword-wielding women were knights of the knights, or mercenaries of women. Her fitness is at first glance close to that of a knight, but what she is doing is mercenary itself. He continues his journey by doing cautious things in his quarters, asking his guild to make money by guarding his squadrons and crusading demons.

In this era, when it came to female mercenaries, it was basically considered a despicable profession, and many were doing whores without money or work, but Alphilis never imitated himself in a way that demeaned him. Because it was also what the master of Alphilis made her make a firm promise, and even if not, she would not have allowed herself to be proud. And when she saw her chivalrous fitness, her intelligent, righteous face, and her eyes that seemed strong in will, it was hard to invite her to take good care of herself, even from the side of the man. As a woman, it may have affected her to be taller and taller.

Some of them would only look at the wind of the alphilis and invite them, but the tragic end was so blurred that she didn't deal with them at all (although at first she didn't know past the public and didn't know what kind of invitation it was) that those who persisted in speaking would not be better off with a rag that kept the horse's body fluttered for a year.

That's almost a year and a half since Alphilis already started his journey, but he still hasn't reached his destination. She is on her way to Begrad to the east, as the master will.

"My master said, 'If you travel normally, it's about six months' or something... my master's liar!

I'll give it a try, for example, but I didn't read the map properly either (the maps were very poorly made at the time and only had a narrow range of maps), and it's totally on the shelf that I have a trapeze habit. Anyway, we're aiming for a destination with a sense that the sun is rising in the east. Moreover, the period of six months mentioned by the master is using a horse. Neither would the master have imagined that Alphilis would walk from the western part of the continent to the eastern edge.

On the other hand, that may be said to be irreplaceable. She lived in isolation from the public in the mountains approximately seven years after being picked up by her master at the age of 10. Without the help of friendly people on their journey, they are so unknown that it would not be strange to travel for a week and be sold off to whore streets per taram. It is because of her benevolence that such misfortune has not come over her. Thanks again to the freaky drunken Sister.

"Well, definitely Alfie, you're coming here to Iz. How many times have you been lost this time fighting a monster I'll give you? I've got to knock you out of the mess."

Thinking, for example, that Alphilis is involved with Sister Anolun, who is single-handedly wrapped in a liquor store, all night long, five days after he got lost again and was driven around by monsters, and when he got to town, he didn't have the nerve to argue.
