Virtuous Old Man, SSS-Rank is Confirmed in Your Next Life

06. Good Men, Carrying Bugs and Hope

The village of Caiera, Miller territory.

I flew directly to this village with instant travel magic.

In this village, which liberated Astarot, I have heard that he has made several major additions and alterations to this one.

As a result, this gawa (,) is an unchanging object, but my stone statue inside was amazing.

I was put on a tall platform, and I still have objects on my back inspired by rear light and wings that are reclining.

majesty and appearance as if he were the ruler of the world or the lass boss of the story.

Honestly, there are too many options to see my face and so on.

Astalot, on the other hand, was of equal size (as it were).

The bigger the gap between me and Astarot, the more Astarot is already known to gladly grant protection.

From the villagers' point of view, this is correct (,).

"Come on, it's not safe here. Where's my kid?

A man appeared from the shade of a tree a little further away.

From where I was retightening my trouser belt, did you add more for me in the shade of a tree?

"Village people here? That's a face I don't see."

"I just moved here last time."

"It is."

"It's more dangerous than that. You could get attacked by monsters here, so get the kid home right away."

"Then it's okay, I'm here to exorcise that monster."

"Yes, yes, I'll only accept feelings, so leave them to the adults -"

Adults responded, like making it a one-packed kid with no hearing.

I left the bag I brought on the ground.

Around, and the body of a pillbug rolled out of a bag.

It has been exterminated in the villages that have come all the way here.

"Huh? Pill...... bug?

The man lost his word.

Eyes open, alternating between me and the worm carcass.

"Why is this... Huh? Dead?"

I exorcised him.

"... no, no, no, no"

The man put up his palm and shook it in front of his face.

"Stop teasing adults. Pillbugs can't be defeated no matter what they do. You found it somewhere with a lifespan, and you picked it up, didn't you?

"I really knocked him out."

"Come on, or you're gonna get mad."

As the dialogue goes, the man is going to get really angry.

There comes another man.

"What's up, Guy, I told you to get your hands on me properly. I don't even know when the bugs are coming."

"Mr. Cole, no, this kid."

"Kid? Dear Alexander! Isn't that right?"

"Huh?"

The first man, Guy, became a poker again.

A man named Cole, who came later, bows his head to me.

"Hey, Mr. Cole. What the hell is that kid?"

"Here! That's rude, Guy. Your Highness, this is Alexander Carlisle."

"Yeah, yeah!? Shh, sorry!

Guy panicked and knelt down at me, rubbing his head to the ground.

"Give me your face, and don't worry about that. More than that, it looks like Pillbug's not here yet."

"Oh, no, I've been here a few times."

"Huh? And..."

I look at this and the stone statues of me and Astalot in it.

Both the dust and stone statues are beautiful.

"Looks like there's no damage, though."

"It was the idea of the villagers to escape."

"What's an idea?

"When the bugs arrive, it's a wall of meat that amazingly solidifies the outside of the dust at the village exit.

"... I see"

I laughed bitterly.

The wisdom of the old men may indeed be effective.

Pillbugs eat only high-energy creations.

The inhabitants of the village who have seen it so far say so in solidarity, and so do the sage stone answers.

It's harmless to the humans themselves, just as Laura, the wicked widow, grabbed it with her bare hands.

There will be no damage as long as the dust is filled with human meat walls so that the worm cannot pass through.

"You've thought about it."

"That's... it's time to suck"

"Why? There's no harm in it."

"It's no real harm, but the bugs crawl around my body, and the people who get sick from being so disgusted..."

"That's right, isn't it?"

Just imagine... I stopped.

Even I don't like that.

I get chilly just thinking about straining my body and being crawled all over my body until the bugs give up and walk away.

Oh, I really got goosebumps.

"I don't have that many, why not..."

"Is it a small number?

"Yeah, ten for many, two or three for less. Looks like it's a good thing I didn't feed you once, but it hasn't increased in number."

"Well, if you knock it down when you get here, you'll be fine."

"Hey, no matter how many vice emperors you take down, you can't assume -"

"It's gonna be okay."

That's what I said, I put the pillbug the hell out of the bag I put on the ground and showed it to both of us.

It's a pillbug that beat and slaughtered (,,,,) in the previous village and turned it into two.

I was suspected earlier of "picking up life expectancy somewhere," so I took it out that it's a way of dying that's clearly not life expectancy.

""... eh ""

Two decent people, their voices aligned beautifully.

"Here, what is this?"

"The pillbug is slashed!?

"Wasn't it impossible to defeat this bug?

"Well, it should be..."

Guy and Cole, you two roughly look at me.

In front of those two, I beat and slaughtered a pill bug that wouldn't change my hardness if I died.

Another half of the worms cut in half - slaughtered by a quarter.

Though at first it was the eyes of the two who were mostly puzzled and fearful.

Gradually it became like seeing hope and the goddess of salvation.
