The road that followed was surprisingly crappy..

The first damn thing was the stone bridge we arrived at 4 hours after leaving the camp. The moment the 15 men gathered on the stone bridge, as if they were just taking a break, started talking to us as we got closer, I couldn't help but slap my forehead..

"Hey, brothers. From here, you have to pay a toll to pass.?"

In fact, isn't everything I've done so far meaningless??

In the novels I read in the past, it was said that in an era without cell phones, fame spread instantly, but when I see that I can't even recognize the stone heads who are trying to steal money from the stone bridges scattered across the river..

Thanks to this, I not only realized to my core why tired clichés are tired clichés, but I also realized that there is a long way to go..

"Heh, heh. Today, especially if you leave that elf behind, I'll take care of it.."

There are too many thieves in the world..

"Hey, strong."

"Yes, four! Mr. Eldmia!"

"Keep those fucked babies."

Sen seemed to have caught my emotional state, which was not just uncomfortable, but momentarily angry, and he jumped down from his horse and threw a dagger among the thieves who were smiling obscenely..

The two thieves, who did not understand the situation, were stabbed with daggers in their eyes and Sen shouted at the same time..

"Hey you bastards!"

The instructions were given to Sen, but all the moving was done. Kals and Weisse charged in with spurs on their horses, and Merdella assisted them by casting a chant at the same time as Sen jumped down..

Of course, nothing that could be called a fight occurred. The guy who was standing there holding his weight, pretending to look like he was okay, saw Sen and the others jump out at my words and ran away like a ghost, but with one shot from Asilier's bow, he followed the other guys, and the rest were just robbers. It was so pointless that I didn't even have the will to fight..

'The only damage I received was when Asilier, who was riding in front, slapped my lips with the palm of her hand, saying, “There are kids, so what do you mean?”.

The second damn thing happened that evening..

As we settled down in the forest and finished setting up the camp, the robbers who survived the stone bridge came from somewhere, dragging their gang with them. Nowadays, if 10 people die, 20 people come in, so I guess that's how many people came to surround us..

"Fuck, you're screwed this time.."

Since rumors rarely spread, how could it be so easy for the surviving day robbers to find us along with the rest of their gang? Mental fatigue set in, so I decided to move this time. After all, no matter how annoying these guys are, you have to deal with them yourself so there is no end to it..

I guess it's because I've been fighting with guys who use swords quite a bit recently, but now this situation is just annoying..

"I'm in Eldmia..."

Then, an unexpected reaction came out..

"Ugh, ugh! Eldmia Egatha!!"

Someone who recognized me appeared.!

"Fuck, fuck! There was no story like this!!"

Not even one or two. I looked around with my eyes wide open, leaving the dumbfounded companions behind, and saw that there were many people showing similar reactions. When I made eye contact with the guy who was so shocked, he even threw down his weapon and turned around to run away..

"You fucking bastards! Fucking bastards! If you're going to mess around, you guys will sleep together.!"

"I said don't do it! not me! no!"

"What, what?! Why are they like that?! Come to your senses, you bastards.!"

"Fuck ahhh!!"

A procession of escapees without looking back. Seeing the number of twenty people reduced to half in an instant, I realized belatedly that my efforts so far had not been in vain..

Fortunately, the remaining guys didn't make a fuss. In the end, Sen, who was staring blankly at the guys who were doing nothing but running around, looked at Asilier and me, who burst into gentle laughter that did not fit the situation, and looked at me as if they could not understand, and then slowly asked a question..

"What on earth are you doing??"

"Pursuing a wish."

I thought it was a reasonable explanation, but the reaction I got didn't really change..

Two days passed, and it wasn't until noon on the third day that Ogwen began to appear in the corner of our vision..

"It's a real city now."

The castle wall, which was under construction, was mostly finished. It was clear that completion was not far off, as only a small part of it remained, so much so that you wouldn't have noticed it if you hadn't seen it from the hill..

"Come to think of it, Eldmia said she knows Ogwen well.?"

"well? I don't know what you know, but you know what you know. I'm not even sure about that anymore."

Even six months before I left Ogwen, it was a city that was changing day by day. I have no idea how much has changed now..

Still, perhaps because it was my hometown, I couldn't help but feel strangely excited, even though there was a candidate for a saint from the Holy Light Cross right behind me and crazy cultists were sharpening their swords..

"You'll find out when you go."

It wasn't just the castle walls that changed. There was a procession to enter the gate that could be seen even from afar, and the buildings within the territory were strangely intimate. I wonder if there is something in this neighborhood, but you never know. Who knows, there might be a bunch of dungeons somewhere.?

"You have to wait in line to get into Ogwen. The world has changed so much."

"You look like an old man, L.D.."

"You're mature, sir.."

Is it because they brought a lot of horses that they couldn't ride? Even after we lined up at the end of the procession, we started getting quite a few looks. While I was waiting for the line to slowly decrease, thinking that it might be due to the strange party composition, I noticed a familiar figure at the gate..

"It's Alec?"

A naive guard in his 20s who was infatuated with Remiri, one of the signature girls raised at Lady Alicia's inn, was conducting a check with an uncharacteristically serious expression on his face..

To be more precise, it should be said that he was losing his military spirit, yawning, taking off his helmet, and was checking and checking on the person who seemed to be his successor. Just by looking at it, I could see how far the procession would go. When Alec's eyes were scanning with boredom, slowly passing through the procession in front and coming towards me, I waved my hand calmly..

Alec was squinting at first, but his eyes soon widened and he started running towards me..

"Oh my goodness! Eldmia! It got bigger?"

"That's all I say as soon as I see you for the first time in a while, bro.?"

"You idiot. Normally, when you're happy, this is the only thing that comes out! uh? But how can I be with Mr. Asilier??"

"It happened because of work. I came this time to pack up my luggage.."

"what?! Did you buy a house in the capital??!"

My dream of owning my own home wasn't much different even if it was a fantasy world..

"That's not true, things were sorted out so we decided to go together.."

"Huh. Levy, actually, she was a noblewoman. I've heard stories about her and whatnot... but it's all well and good.?"

"uh. It ended well. don't worry."

Whatever it was, Alec liked people and his once intimidated expression became brighter as if it were his job..

"I'm glad. I'm glad. Ah, more than that, this brother had something amazing to tell you.!"

"Dating Remiri?"

"I'm... Huh? How did you know?"

"My brother was probably the only one who didn't know why Remiri gave up all his good pastimes and started working at his brother's store.?"

Only recently did I realize that my intuition was hopeless, but it was still better than Alec's. Huh? While we were making fun of Alec, who was experiencing cognitive dissonance, we arrived at the gate and got a free pass thanks to the help of an acquaintance..

"Still, I'm glad you're doing well, hey! I'm going to stay a while and then go.?"

"It's not long... but still about three days.?"

"Hey, you must be busy. It's been a while since I've been here, so let's have a drink together later. Oh, travelers, please be sure to stop by the Adventurer's Guild. These days, it's a week to strengthen public security, so I'm being meticulous.."

"Ah, yes. thank you."

The interior of the city I entered, leaving behind Alec, who energetically waved me off and waved me off, was much more familiar than it looked from the outside..

"uh?! Eldmia!"

"Milena, long time no see! The store location has changed?"

"Oh my god! No, you heartless bastard! Just stop!"

"I can't right now because I have urgent work to do. I'll say hello later!"

Before you know it, you pass by Milena's store, which has changed its location and become a bit larger..

"what? It's Eldmia.?"

"You used the sword you gave me cheaply well.!"

"what? Why is it in past tense? hey! Wow!"

"Hahaha! Longsword of Ogwen Blacksmith Hans of the Frontier! It was replaced with the long sword of the capital dwarf craftsman.!"

"what?! Dwarf?! Hey, hey! You guy! Show me the sword and go!"

I looked down the street past Hans, who was always standing in front of the blacksmith shop, letting the light shine on his shining hair..

A familiar face. A series of selfless joy. Even though I didn't really pay attention to remember it, memories came flooding back to me as soon as I arrived. I felt so pleasant that I could easily ignore the looks of people around me, including Sen's companions, who were looking at this welcoming atmosphere with blank expressions..

The place we arrived on horseback was Mrs. Alicia's inn, which was now almost a daycare center. As I stopped talking and looked at the building, which had clearly changed, I saw children who seemed not to know my face, who had suddenly gathered around us, looking at us in amazement..

...There are a lot.

"If you follow the southern road from here, you will come to the Holy Light Cross Temple. Go take care of your business, make a mark on the Adventurer's Guild, and come back here.."

"yes? Holy Light Cross? Why are you there?..."

"Lady Velesica's family will be there.."

If you're safe. These guys had question marks above their heads, but that didn't mean they particularly complained about my words..

"Well, aren’t you going with me??"

But Belesica complained a little. He seemed anxious, so I explained in a somewhat soothing tone..

"I am from a third party perspective. Of course, we don't break up like this. I will just organize my work first and visit to explain the situation. When you get there, you will meet Priest Ashel. If you tell Eldmia Egar that you want to see him, other priests will guide you. You can trust him because he is more faithful than anyone else.."

Not only is he faithful, but he is also a veteran crusader who participated in past crusades. In the first place, it feels absurd to say that the Holy Light Cross priests in Ogwen are blinded by self-interest, but it would still be better to introduce the most trustworthy person first..

Fortunately, that was all that made Bellesica feel at ease and accept the situation. Asilier quietly asked me as she watched her companions and horses walking away..

"Holy Light Cross Society?"

"They say she might be a candidate for sainthood.."

"...aha. so..."

Asili understood the situation just by those words and did not ask any more questions..

It's just, 'No matter where I go, I get caught up in incidents.' She just smiled softly..
