With a light greeting, a total of 12 bad adventurers were waiting in front of the Adventurer Alliance.

I bent my body ninety degrees and said hello.

If you do that in the city, your eyes will naturally gather around you.

I was distracted by the gaze, raised my head, and hurried to the next destination, Mr. Dalson's shop.

"Good morning!

"There you are. Let's just get in."

After all, I called out to Dalson, who was snowblowing in front of me, and he stabbed the tools he had into the snow pile and interrupted the work and invited me into the shop.

"Mr. Dalson, may I see your product?

"Whoa, you can watch whatever you want."

"Thank you very much. Then choose your own weapon.Just handle the product carefully. "

Woods!

"Be quiet."

Okay, brother.

A soft reply. I knew it.....

With that in mind, Dalson called from the accounting counter.

"Lyoma, they've been rumouring about bad adventurers lately, right?I heard from Wargan, but he seems to be doing pretty well. "

"Really?In the meantime, I won't resist. "

"The rebellious and evil people have grown up, that's enough.Besides, they call you brother. "

"No, I feel like I'm just scared.And you think of me as “older”... you see, there are people who look like adults and children, right?

"Ah, I don't even know.Sometimes you smell like a kid because of your old man. "

"Ha!?

Well, I'm still 11 years old... and I think it's a little old...

In fact, the spirit is conscious of the old man, and it is probably because of that that that he cannot strongly deny it.

"But why are you weaponizing them again?Lyoma's paying for everything today, right?

"As a matter of fact, on their first day, I destroyed all the weapons they had."

That day, I got caught in the middle of inviting them out of sight.

And as the Alliance Master told me, I tightened it thoroughly.

"I was quite provocative, too."

They initially repelled the attack with bare hands, but they were more stubborn than they thought and hardly admitted losing.

Besides, “I didn't do all I could yet” and other good things came out, so I used healing magic many times to fight as they excused me, crushing one excuse at a time.

"In the process, I used my weapons and lost them all... because the weapons are their personal belongings and work tools.Even though they were the first to get involved, I thought it would be better to make amends than to provoke them out and destroy them. "

"Would you like to buy it with me?I think a lot of people just give money. "

"I was a little curious."

"What's bothering you?

"While I was fighting, I somehow felt that the weapons they had didn't fit them.For example..... "

I just noticed one of them finished choosing a double-handed sword, so I'll call him.

"Mr. Benno."

"Yes, brother! What is it?"

"That two-handed sword looks similar to the one I used before."

"Ah, yes. I thought it would be better if it were similar to the one I used before, and it was closer to the previous one."

"Just try to stand by.You don't have to shake it. "

Having said that, he held his sword honestly in front of his body, even though he seemed somewhat suspicious.

However, the tip of the sword is slightly shaken by the weight of the sword itself.

In addition, the other day, when I fought, I had the impression that it was shaken by the weight of the weapon.

"I see, the weapon and body don't fit.I recommend using a lighter double-handed sword, a long sword that can be used in both hands, or around a blunt object of the same weight.If you really want to use it, you should at least train your body a little bit more. "

That's right.

"Yes, what is it?

"Mr. Dalson is an expert in armour and a senior adventurer, right?Whatever you say, former S rank.I was working with Wargan, the guild master of the Adventurers Guild, which you all know. "

When I explained it, I was surprised not only by Benno in front of me, but also by the other 11 people who were listening.Apparently I didn't know such a person.

"S-Rank is an old story.Nevertheless, I didn't mean to lie to you.Regardless of size, the sword is a blade.If I don't raise the blade muscle, I won't be able to cut anything.Well, that's mostly true for new Americans. "

"Do you have any thoughts on your swords?

"I don't have any particular thoughts... I was just using it because there was a sword in my barn with both hands covered in dust."

"If you were using it properly, I recommend replacing it with a weapon.I'm not saying it's impossible because it involves both work and life.Then you should learn about the guild.Even one weapon or choice of weapon can change the outcome of an emergency. "

"Ugh, woos."

As pointed out by former S-rank Dalson, he is a sword that can be used with one hand or both.In addition, I will look at the warhammer shelf products.

"I'm sorry, brother, I'm good at dismantling prey and I used a knife somehow, but what do you think?"

Oops, one of the people who was watching earlier asked me a question.

I'll point out what I know and ask Mr. Dalson to consult with me.

In doing so, they were asked questions from beginning to end, and when they realized that they were looking after everyone's choice of weapons.

"... now we've all decided what to buy."

Woods!

"Miss Dalson, please pay the bill."

"Whoa, wait a minute."

Dalson quickly paid the calculated price and the shopping was closed.

At the same time, the expressions of 12 people began to darken.

"Hey, why are they suddenly smelling like shit?

"Probably because we're going to check the comfort of the weapons we're going to buy and train them."

If you buy a new weapon, you need to get used to it.

Therefore, I will go to the security company and rent an empty space for training.

By the way, when training, use the metal slime that brings the shape, size, weight, and center of gravity as close as possible to the real weapon they bought.

That way, you can train with care without damaging the weapon you just bought.

The injury is healing magic, and there is a hospital in the same building in case of emergency, so it can be handled immediately.

Eugene,

"I'm not going to do what I did when I got tangled up in the boulders, so don't be so scared."

……

"So now is the time to show your rebellious heart?I'm not dead, I'm an adventurer, so what if I lose once or twice? "

Yes......

"Er... here, the results from the previous one are quite natural in a sense.Even so, I must have been training longer than you think, and I used to have a teacher.

... don't you regret losing to a kid like this!?

"!! I regret it!

"Then come in training with the feeling of killing me!

Yes!

"Keep your voice down!!

Yes!!!

"Alright!!!... so if you'll excuse me.Thank you very much. Come on, everybody. "

Thank you!!

"Oh, wow. Good luck, huh?

I didn't boil out, so I pushed my morale with momentum, but did I fail?

We leave Mr Dalson's shop with a feeling of being pulled lightly.

"... Lyoma, aren't you suited to surprisingly put these people together...?

I heard a murmur over my back.

I was a little worried that it still looked like yakuza....

And in the afternoon,

…………

In the courtyard of the security company, there were many dead adventurers rolling around.

"Hey, come on...."

"Are you alive..."

"Somehow...."

Twelve fell down and didn't get up.

But physically and mentally, I pushed myself to the limit.

The attack was edged and did not (...) cause injury, “not as bad as before".

It would be okay to say that the declaration is correct.

"Even though I thought I was at my limit, I was surprised to be pushed.I think this is your real limit.I think it's good to remember my limitations and how I feel.

If you end up in that state during a battle or while working outside the city, you can only think of it as death.If you can't move right now, even a normal child can easily stab you.If you encounter a fierce wildlife, you can't escape.

So before that happens, or worse, before your body moves badly, you need to get to a safe place to kill your enemies.

I see......

Yeah, if you can squeeze it out, it's fine.

I miss you... I think my father used to be a little crazy, but I usually hit him with a wooden knife or a kick.More importantly, I pushed you until you lost consciousness.If you think so, you will still be kind.

However, it will interfere with the training of the security company from this afternoon.

That's why I used the healing magic that Mr. Muffler just taught me the other day.

"Energy Charge"

"Nh...!?

"What do you think? A little easier?

"Ugh, woos."

Okay, looks like it's working.

The magical effect is said to be “health restoration”, but personally, I think you can think of it as "converting magic into health.”

The basic thing is the beginning of healing magic, the “heel” I've used many times, and the top magic.

Teacher Muffler said that heel magic is often used to heal wounds, but was actually taught as a secondary effect to restore health.

And energy charge is magic that discards the effect of blocking wounds (...) and specializes in recovering health (...).

By its very nature, it is ineffective in treating injuries, but helps to treat weakened patients and prolonged life.In addition, healing magic is generally said to have no effect on the disease, but healing lost health can also help treat and improve the symptoms of the disease.

I think the way I used it this time is out of line with its original purpose, but I tried my best so I think it would be a little better.

The magic went on, and everyone was able to stand and walk without any problems.

"Okay, everybody. I don't think you have any injuries from the attack today, but I think there are some minor scratches from falling and falling, so please go to the hospital for treatment just in case.It was a little late in the meantime, but I'll get lunch ready.When the treatment is over, I'll meet you in the canteen. "

Wow!!

Ooh... should I call you an athlete after the club?

Because they're actually newcomers and bad adventurers in their late teens.I'm about high school student.

At first it looked like a college student, but that was probably because he was in better shape than he was at his age.

After a healthy eating boy exercises intensely.

This has to be eaten well.

So I dropped them off at the attached hospital and hurried to the dining room.

Finish lunch with a security company employee and rent the spare equipment to cook.

I also borrowed a little help from the cooks who approached me with interest along the way.

I was interested in new cooking utensils like recipes and pressure cookers, and everyone was happy to help me during my break.

While doing so, an hungry boy came to the cafeteria to line up the dishes.

"Uhh!?

"Amazing amount...."

"Can I eat this!?

"Yes, it looks like we're all here, and we did our best today.Eat more and more. "

Today's menu includes:

1. Bread

2. Vegetable and Intestinal Soup

3. Stewed root vegetables

Pumpkin? simmered

5. Stewed Sprint Labbit, Stewed

Bread and soup were provided with leftovers from the employee canteen during the day.

Stewed foods add nutritious, well-fed foods, considering their age.

And for the simmering of sprint rabbits, we experimented with whether it could simply be softened in a pressure cooker.

When I told her not to hesitate to eat, she reached out to cook at once, and the contents of the pan were transferred to the plate and disappeared into her belly.

A little overwhelmed by that momentum, a short conversation begins between the neighbors as to whether it has calmed down a little.

"This potato stew tastes different, but don't you feel like you've been eating it in our village?

"Oh, that's it.I felt somehow nostalgic. "

"... Caboté... you even made it in my field..."

"It's a luxury to eat so much bread.In my village, wheat is eaten as porridge. "

"Oh, that's my village, too.I mean, that's pretty much what the countryside is like, right?

"It takes a lot of work and money to pull the powder.It's hard for preservation, even if you make it. "

"My soft bread was a luxury once in a while when I went out to town...."

"Speaking of luxury, there's this kind of meat in the winter, too."

"Sure, this time of year, it's just stuffed intestines and salted meat, and then pickles and preservatives."

There is.

"Speaking of which, where are you from?Specialties, local cuisine, etc. "

"Our village is a normal countryside.Speaking of things to eat often, such as wheat congee or potato stew. "

"When is our village or region?is a specialty of potatoes, and there are noodle dishes made from potatoes.Even so, it's not such a big dish as local cuisine, but simply because the wheat is expensive, it's just mixing potato powder and adding bulk. "

Noodle dishes made with potatoes.Interested in hearing more about it, it seems to be close to Hokkaido's “snowy udon" or “starch udon”, where potato starch is mixed with flour.

In that way, while listening to stories about home-cooked food, I was also attending a meal.

"Ugh, I can't move..."

I almost ran out of prepared dishes.

I ate it, too, but it was a very ordinary serving.

I've eaten a lot.

"Hey, that was good, I ate too much...."

I haven't eaten this much in a long time.

The boys are laughing satisfactorily, rubbing their bloated bellies.

"I'm glad it fits my mouth.May I speak again, if I may?

"Seriously!

I think it will be a prototype or remnant, but if that's okay... when I tell them that I don't care about that at all, I'm very happy that it's very helpful.Apparently they had a hard life with them.

"Everyone comes here from their home village, and the environment is very different."

"That's it! I'll do it, brother!

"I will definitely raise a flag!I'm glad I didn't leave the village. "

I don't know if it's going to work when I get out of town.

It is a dark story because it is calm after meals, but their atmosphere is not as stinging as before, and words come out honestly.

Living alone and away from home changes the way you live with your family.

I thought the earth and the other world would be the same, but it still seems so.

The difference between village and city is enormous, even though it was what it wanted.

It is not uncommon for people in rural areas to be unable to read letters, and money is traded several times a year.

I hear that there are many places in the village to barter and help each other.

And they seem to have learned the minimum reading and writing before leaving the village, but they are not good at it.

I am equally bad at calculating money.The way money is spent is not rough, but I felt it was poor.

Because of the unfamiliar way in which money is spent, we must gradually cut down our lives.

The divergence between dreams and reality inspires the confidence and pride you have acquired at home.

Response of residents who become cold in an instant as their attitude becomes rough.

Fearing to be separated from the circle of men and lonely, one man and another gathered naturally.

And I'm in a vicious circle... trying to maintain self-esteem by repeatedly rebelling against my surroundings with the support of my heart that I'm not alone.

"... you don't say anything, do you?"

"? I feel like I'm saying a lot."

"No, that's true, when you say it, you say it babbly, and then I get bumpy, but that's not it."

You mean it doesn't smell like preaching like a bunch of guilds?

"That's right! That's right!

"Ah... well, I'm not so good at telling people about other people."

I don't have the same direction as them, but I am aware of various things.

"Besides, the Alliance Master has already told you a lot, right?

Well...

"Then there's nothing I can say now.And you all know what really went wrong, and you realize that we were wrong. "

They are twisted on the surface, but the root part is honest and simple.

It is also easy to understand.

If you ask me if I'm actually aware, everyone turns away from me and shuts up.

I think that attitude can be considered evidence of awareness already.

"Really” people who are unconscious that they are bad, people who don't understand even when pointed out, make a blurry face so that they can't understand this word.Or just repair the surface and make it look like you're reflecting, but inside you don't doubt that you're right.

I don't feel confident seeing people, but in my previous life, I used to be with them every day.I've been dealing with it for years, and I've been seeing that attitude.

So somehow, really somehow, they felt “different.”

I continue to be nervous and cause trouble to my surroundings, but I feel negative if I am aware of it.

Compared to their former employees, they are still completely cute.

"Of course, if I do evil in what I see, I will stop using force.If I have any problems, I will consult as much as I can. [M]But it's up to you to act eventually.The sermon doesn't come with a pin....

If it's a personal wish, I want you to do your best to start over.I think you have the courage to acknowledge your past mistakes and change your attitude, but I think you are still in a position to start over. "

"I can start over....."

I see you respond to my words and hear a suspicious murmur.

Then one of the mutters tried to speak to himself, but he greeted me and everyone and opened his mouth.

"We're already causing a lot of trouble to others, do you really think so?

The answer to a word thrown is yes.

"We won't be able to recover the lost credibility immediately, and we'll see it in the tough eye again.But it is a different story from whether it can be broken in time.

... really helpless people don't feel anything when they do evil (...). I don't know if it's innate or acquired because they're used to doing the same thing over and over again... At least if you're reflecting on what you've done in the past or feeling a little remorse, I think you're still somewhere to go.

And if you're in a place where you can go back, I think you should do your best to get back. "

Of course, it's best not to do anything bad from the beginning, but if you keep doing it more often and stop it somewhere, it's better to stop it.

Clearly, there was a contemplative silence in the cafeteria for a while.

My stomach must have calmed down in the meantime.

Well then, brother, we're here.

Everything I had planned was done, and the bad boys said they were going back to the inn, so I dropped them off at the gate of the security company.

"Yes, please go home carefully.Even though I recovered with magic, I severely used my body, so rest slowly.I'll see you at work tomorrow. "

Woods!

"Weapons, rice, practice, bruises!

Bruised!!

"Hahaha... just in case, weapons shouldn't be used for bad things.What if I do that? "

As a buyer, I will be responsible.

If the weapons they bought hurt or killed someone innocent....

"As the least I can do to make amends for the murderer's neck..."

Definitely not!!!

"- I'm kidding. I believe it won't be a boulder."

What, are you kidding me?

"I'm kidding. It's tough."

"That doesn't sound like a joke...."

So I dropped off the bad boys leaving with a dry laugh.

"Well, let's go to church."

I've been busy since the day I got back to Gimr from Fatma territory, so I haven't seen my face for a while.

I was about to show my face, and I don't have any plans for today.

Then we'll have to go.

"I don't know what to say today... there's a lot to talk about..."

With that in mind, I began to walk towards the church as usual.
