The Peerless Kobold (WN)

"Are you Lord Muriel, the wizard?

After a while, a knight who came to the entrance to the village of Viel asks.

"Yeah, knight, it's Muriel, the magician. Best regards,"

"Thank you for helping us crusade the thieves this time. So, what about your lady?

Lord Knight's gaze is pointed next to mine.

"This is Maril, daughter of the village chief of Viel village."

"Where's Sergio, the village chief?

"My father is lying ill, I'm sorry"

"Really, okay...... so what about the thief?

"This way."

I will also follow Maril after he leads the guards, creeping through the village entrance and proceeding to the central square.

Therein the bandits were tied behind their backs, and the ends of the strings were tied to each other and connected to piles punched into the ground. Nearby are also arranged the bodies of six burglars in hemp bags.

"Split it."

"Ha."

At the behest of the Knight, the body is revamped first.

"There are three bodies with a broken belly with a sword, two pierced from behind, and one stabbed by a spear. I was wondering if it was due to a lot of skill..."

"... this is a village vigilante?

They'll ask who did it, right, and the red-haired magician secretly sighed heavily.

"Ha, would a vigilante in a village like this kill you!!

"You can't beat an amateur opponent!

Whatever happens to Muriel with a melancholy look on his face, the bandits make some noise.

"So, whose fault is it? Say it."

"……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………"

Ugh, you have to let me try my best to explain, Gu.

"... Lord Commander, what are the bandits saying?

"Yeah, it's true. I was there too..."

In response to these words, the soldier in charge of the prosecution pinches the words with a look of surprise.

"Captain, if it's Kobolt, it doesn't fit all kinds of things."

"Explain, please"

"Ha, it's a body wound, but it's also an incision that I don't think is due to the obsidian weapon they use. And there's no trace of nail fangs at all..."

The knight's expression is hardening gradually... I wonder if he's lying or something.

"And my men are saying..."

"The reason for this is simple, the Kobolts were armed. Occasionally, goblins and cobolts can take away the weapons of an exhausted adventurer or defeated opponent."

It's a rare case, so I'm not lying.

"... a cobolt with a weapon, or it's dangerous. Where is that now?

"I don't know the details... but I left in the direction of the Northeast, possibly the Barbera Forest"

"Barbera... that's troublesome"

“Barbera Forest” has a low chance of a Threat C to A demon appearing. The average soldier is sophisticated, more powerful than “iron” when considered an adventurer, but I just said he's less than “black iron," and he shouldn't be able to cope with a menace C-ranked demon.

If a threat A demon comes out again, you'll be asked for the equivalent strength of a substantial peak “platinum” adventurer, but that's around ten quasi-heroes in the country or not.

For this reason, to be the highest “Scarlet Gold” adventurer, you need to have the same track record as past heroes and great sages. Well, that's an almost impossible story.

Specifically, we need to crusade demons that will destroy the worst country above threat class S, but if such demons come out of generations, mankind will already be destroyed.

As a result, there are only a handful of Scarlet Gold adventurers on this entire continent.

In other words, the subdragon Tyrant Lizard of Threat A, supposedly out in the “Barbera Forest," is out of Ferrias' hands. Realistically, I wouldn't be able to exorcise the demons of threat B below one either... I'd like you to give up investigative exploration or something.

"Dear knight, those cobolts were unusual mutants in themselves, so if they were bad, they could also be comparable to Threat B. Impossible exploration may be difficult..."

"… I'll report above, is it out of our control to explore the Barbera Forest…"

Sounds like you managed to get it together, all right!

"But why did those Kobolts help the village?

Ugh, there was that too... even though you didn't have to notice.

"One of those Kobolts was High Kobolt, so he must have been highly intelligent"

"Hi Kobolt, the Barbera Forest is anything."

High Cobolt has few discovery cases, so you don't know its ecology, so it's okay to say whatever you want, right?

"I generally understand. I care about those cobolts, but it's too risky to march in the Barbera Forest… keep it in mind."

"Yeah, please"

They then asked me about the weapons and protective equipment of the bandits, but that was also just as the Kobolts explained in fact that they had taken it away.

"Thank you, Master Demon, Lord Maril. I would also like to ask the Judiciary of the town of Zergla what you have heard here......"

"Excuse me, knight... I have my father's care..."

"Now let me accompany the knight"

Offer to accompany the guards, as I was talking to Maril first.

"Thank you, Master Mage."

That's how I go to the town of Zergla with the guards taking the bandits. I thought they would ask me about the burglar raid in that court, but it was inexplicable that the trap was so lightly released that I thought it might be set.

It should be noted that this is her unknown story...

When the Justice Department contacted the City Adventurer's Guild in advance for information on the "Redhead Young Wizard," it said in large deficit that “Attention must be paid to the officials of the Storm Witch.”
