To Deprive a Deprived Person

Episode 214: Frenzy

Wood Payne.

It is a small village within the Kingdom of Oudon. Woodworking flourishes in Wood Payne because quality trees can be taken from the surrounding mountains, and it is known that there are many skilled craftsmen.

"Come on! We're gonna cut this tree next."

"Aye. And are you going to be okay with cutting so many trees?

The village chief told me to take care of it, but I'm worried the mountain gods might get angry. "

"The village chief has an idea of the village chief. Don't complain.

The famous Beloon Chamber of Commerce, which owns a shop in Wangdu, has spoken about lending money to the village chief to try to do business more widely. Look, even the new axe you're using, I bought it for that money. "

"Did you?"

In a forest so thick as to turn back, Wood Payne's wooddust men were putting out their sperm to encourage logging.

"Oh, man. Look at that one! Ryu, it's a dragon!!

"Am I? Oh, this is unusual. It's a wooden dragon."

"What are you talking about? Don't get away with it."

"Waha. Oh, my God. Oh, you've never seen a wooden dragon before? You don't have to panic. I need to do something extra from over here, Wooden Dragon Ha-ha-ha. He's cute for looking away. And wooden dragons eat trees, but they can exterminate demons to protect their food."

The man who was in a hurry wiped his face shyly with a hand tug to the words of his companion that he did not need to worry.

"Well... well. You don't have to panic.

Nevertheless, I've never seen a wooden dragon before, but I can't believe it's as big as a Sequoia tree, Ora. Wah hah! "

The guy laughs out loud to cover it up, and he also laughs when his surroundings are caught.

"Gahaha. If you are as big as Sora Sequoia tree...... as Sequoia tree duh!?

"Hey, what's up?

"The Sequoia tree is seventy to eighty meters long, even for smaller trees! Even an adult wooden dragon should have fifteen meters of precision. Ma, no way...... Ryu, Ryu is Ryu, but Ryu (...) Huh! That's a wooden dragon!!

The noise quickly spreads, as if contagious. The dust interrupts the work and stares at the dragon.

"It's a wooden dragon!? Look, everybody calm down. You know, even when I say Kiryu, it's just getting a little bigger, and it's a big deal."

"Right...... right. Am I right? Hey, you can be proud of the villagers! What kind of dragon did you see? Like a village chief?

"Ha. Right, will you be proud? If you look closely, those wooden dragons, they have bright red, beautiful eyes!

"Yes, they do. Bright red... the tree dragon's eyes are clear and watery. Does it change when you're a dragon?

"Which one? True bright red eyes - hiccup."

It is witnessed by many villagers living in Wood Payne that the forest area, a short distance from Wood Payne, disappears the moment one of the wooden dust meets the wooden dragon. In the neighborhood of the idyllic Murray Wood Payne, reports of the emergence of Kiryu immediately rise from Wood Payne to the nearest city of Perjaetto.

A total of 10,000 soldiers gathered from the city of Perjaetto and surrounding towns and villages embark on a wooden dragon crusade.

"What are you doing!! Knock it off!! Oh, oh... no... right. Please run, Pell... Ja... Dear"

"Ha, I want, retreat!! Retreat, retreat!! Such a monster, there's no way I can do something with every soldier I collect from the neighborhood!! Wait for reinforcements from the King's Capital!!

In response to a request for support from the Count of Pelja, who governs the city of Peljaetto, Tenkasi, the king's capital, sent an elite army of 30,000 troops led by the Wodon Five Knights "Heavenly Sword" Griffred, who received the royal decree, and even the "Knight that brings about an absolute victory" Param.

"Don't loosen wide ties!

Within the broad boundaries strewn by 10,000 guard positions, Griffred and Param were engaged in a fierce battle with the wood dragon, taking with them five hundred more knights selected from among the elite 30,000.

"Nohaha!! Behold, all!! Kiryu is screaming by Master Griffred's" Heavenly Sword "!!

"What the hell! Master Param's Holy Sword Excalibur is not losing!!

Originally a predominant Woodon army, it is gradually exhausted by the out-of-digit regeneration power of the wooden dragon, super-weight attacks, and the breath released by the wooden dragon. It was also a bad place to be fighting. Neither can the formation be satisfactorily formed where the surroundings are surrounded by trees.

"It's awkward. They're starting to push me."

One of the commanders realizes as soon as possible that the course of the war is leaning.

"Yep! I can't seal the movement of a tree dragon as well as a wide area junction!!

"Mm, I can't! Please understand that even keeping the wooden dragon within the junction is a difficult undertaking!!

Answer the Commander's Impossible Challenge as one of the Knights tells him to.

On the other hand, in a force made up of guard positions responsible for broad regional boundaries.

"Inject more magic!!

"I'm doing it!! Fourth Squadron is taking turns with Fifth Squadron!!

"Wooden Dragon is moving!

"is willing to hit the edge...... wide area junction!

Five hundred elite and fiercely fought wooden dragons repeatedly hit their bodies toward wide regional boundaries as they pushed down the trees.

"Right, Captain! I want to break into a bond!!

"What are you doing!! Repair it quickly."

"Report! Wooden Dragon, Breaking the Wide Area Connection!! I repeat!! Wooden Dragon, we are breaking through a wide area junction and heading south!!

"Hey, what the hell!!

Kiryu begins southbound to flee the Woodon army. In doing so, they devour the trees of the forest, knock them down, and scatter them in all directions so that the many animals and demons that inhabit the vicinity escape the dragons. The escape was naturally preceded by demons living in the area, but suddenly thousands to tens of thousands of demons pushed in. Confusion causes further confusion and demons begin to storm.

The Woodon army will crack many of its soldiers to protect neighboring cities and towns from a bunch of runaway demons.

Cities and big towns are still good. Because the Woodon army can protect you. It is the small villages that are pathetic. The villages that were ahead of the swarm of unluckily rampant demons are ravaged by demons without the art of exchange.

"Why don't we find out where the herd of demons is headed quickly!

"I was afraid it would be difficult to grasp all the demons scattered in all directions"

"Excellent excuse! As soon as possible."

"Where's Param?"

"Now in the meantime - this is Dear Griffred. And excuse me. I'm the captain."

"I don't mind. It's an emergency now. Don't just say hello in that format. Where is Param more than that?

"Master Param followed the wooden dragon with gestures, about a thousand."

"What a silly thing to do. Only a thousand soldiers will defeat the Dragon."

"But the escaped tree dragon is full of creation, if it is Master Param -"

"Have you forgotten that the other person is a dragon? It would have already healed, such as that degree of scratch"

"So... Master Param"

"It is inevitable. Now we take precedence over the people over the Param thing. Reassemble your units immediately and send them to the town where they're still safe."

"Ha, right away!!

Information on the failure of the Wood Dragon Crusade had even been passed on to the city Cummer, far from Wood Payne.

"Did you hear that? Looks like Woodon's army has failed to crusade the Dragon and is in trouble."

"Oh, I know. There's a demon running from Kiryu, isn't there? Some small villages have been wiped out without help."

"Seriously. Well, it's natural to prioritize cities and big towns over small villages"

Even within the Adventurer's Guild of the City Cummer, it was carried away by rumors of a herd of wooden dragons and runaway demons.

"Look at that one. He's the beast man, isn't he?

"Oh, it seems true that being with Yu means that the beast man is part of the 'Nameless'"

"Damn. I'm in the same clan as Mr. Marifa."

"Neither do I. Besides, he sounds like an animal man, even an animal man, is a child with a human race. I don't know why such a bastard put it in 'Nameless'."

Even though it has just been done, the clan "Nameless" can be named after the city camer. The name value is amazing and many adventurers are eager to join it. Yu would never approve of accession - until now.

Many adventurers were jealous when rumours quickly spread that they belonged to the 'Nameless', composed of mutilated beasts led by Agafon, depraved, demonic fallen, and even demonic people up to half-oak and persecuted from other races, confirmed by the adventurers who interacted with Nina and the others as solid information.

"I'm going to the reception for a little while, so look for me on my next quest."

"Ugly."

When Yu says so, he heads to the reception.

"Don't make any noise or anything in the guild."

"You can't do that."

"I know. Namari, you're right."

Marifa warns me, and Agafon replies to Namali, who imitates it, reluctantly.

"Hello, Mr. Colette"

"Hello Yu!

"Sister Colette, I'm here too -!

"Aha. Hello, Namari."

"Hello -!

Marifa, standing behind Yu, bows her head gently and greets him. Momo, who was straddling Namari's head, also imitates it and bows his head to Colette. Colette rushes to bow her head the same way, and Yu grins thinly at the appearance.

"Uh, Mr. Yu. Didn't you laugh now?

"Excuse me. I thought you'd be the same as Mr. Colette, who worked so hard."

Did Yu stare at Colette and embarrass her, turning her face bright red and making fun of Namari?

"Can you give this bottle to the guild leader for me to keep?

"Can I just give it to you?

"Yes, I think you'll find out as soon as you give it to me"

"That's a strange colored liquid. Is this liquid potion or what?

"They say it's more important than life for the Alliance Commander."

Colette, staring at the liquid in the bottle, is about to drop a surprise bottle at Yu's words.

"I'm just kidding."

"Also, already. Don't be surprised, Mr. Yu."

"Are you ill, by the way, Mr. Adele? You don't look well."

Adele's figure working away from the reception looked somewhere unwell, as Yu put it, and her eyes were indented.

"It is...... Mr. Yu, do you know that Kiryu showed up?

"Yeah. I hear you were rambling on Wood Payne. It looks like a bunch of demons running wild in fear of tree dragons is more problematic now than tree dragons."

"It is. Looks like one of those demonic herds is being driven by a wooden dragon, heading towards the village where Mr. Adele was born."

Yu often stares at Colette. I don't understand why Yu stares at himself. Colette looks away at me at first.

"Yu, Mr. Yu, what's wrong?

"Don't you ask me? He asked me to protect Mr. Adele's village from the wooden dragons and herds of demons."

In response to Yu's inquiry, Colette puts on a painful look, but immediately grins.

"You can't ask Mr. Yu for such a dangerous thing. When the army that fought Kiryu has many war dead, the Adventurer Guild also has information coming in.

The Kingdom of Oudon has also appealed to the Adventurers Guild to request the cooperation of adventurers in their quest, but the amount that can be paid in small villages is also insignificant.

It is not for me to pay the price commensurate with the quest, nor to mediate a dangerous quest to all adventurers.

Besides, I'm sure Mr. Adele won't get too close to Yu being here because if you talk to him, he'll rely on you. "

The truth is, for Adele's sake, Colette, who should want to talk to Yu right now, does not pinch her personal feelings as an Adventurer Guild Receptionist.

Yu stares at the figure with some dazzle.

"Really? I get it. Now that I've remembered a little something for you, please excuse me."

Leaving under Colette, Yu speaks to Agafon looking at the quest board.

Agafon, let's go.

"I haven't decided on a quest yet."

"You don't have to take it. Gather them all now."

"Are you going somewhere?

"Oh, I'm leaving Cummer for an expedition"

Agafon laughs niggardly at "ha-ha," if anything comes to mind.

"What the hell. It's not what you think."

"I know. To get away from that Dwarf thing called Tropi, right?

…………

Yu did not deny it.

Agafon looks at Marifa once and then speaks in a whisper in Yu's ear.

"I thought Mr. Marifa was the scariest guy ever, but he's up there, isn't he? I can't believe there was more perversion than Mr. Marifa."

"You, what do you mean, Marifa's a pervert?

"Yeah, you don't know? I saw it. When Marifa was drying her laundry the other day, she was cheeky on the Alliance Master's underwear. I've been trying not to go against Marifa alone ever since I saw her, but Tropi is a dwarf that surpasses it."

Agafon was right, Tropi was a biological pervert. Its appearance of lust for a boy of his age, its obsession, is on a level comparable to that of Fifi.

It's already been over a week since Yu first met Tropi in the orphanage, but Tropi was chasing Yu around day after day. Through the obstruction of Marifa and the others trying to stop it, too.

For the first time, Yu learned that there were different kinds of fear.

"Agaphone"

As Yu thinks about Tropi, Marifa puts her hand on Agafon's shoulder.

"What do you want?

"These long ears of mine are not Dada. You know what that sounds like?

Blood draws from Agafon's face. I thought it would be all right because of the hustle and bustle within the Adventurer's Guild and because I was talking in Yu's ear. It seemed to sound solid to Marifa's ears.

"Master, I need to talk to Agafon for a moment, so would you mind if I gave you some time?

"Yes, I don't like it! Me, Alliance Leader, help - hiccup."

It was a raging agaphon, but it doesn't move as the body thinks. Marifa's manipulative insects had already deprived her of her physical freedom. No one responded to a cry for help from a sad agaphon, as if a child bear were crying out.
