Never touch Eldmia Egga - Episode 302
'If this is a child, it will be a mess..'
Avnam's close associate Mekel, who knew how to liven up the mood by acting like a clown, felt even his fur stand on end for a reason other than the cold, and he tilted his sword to the floor to avoid appearing as hostile as possible. She knew with her intuition that if it was an enemy, it was dangerous, and if it was not an enemy, there was no need to sow antipathy..
The elf side didn't mind, but the men's eyes instantly turned hostile when they saw the weapons they had taken out in that brief moment. Mekel, who felt it was necessary to step forward before causing unnecessary misunderstanding, stopped his colleagues and stepped forward..
The top priority is the protection of the captain. In order to do this, someone else had to take action that could be considered the authority to command..
"Excuse me! This is a pioneer village supported by the gateway city of Raviel. What brought you here??"
The conversation I attempted, hoping that there wouldn't be any bullshit attacks, was quite successful. Because the man’s eyes suddenly changed.
"My name is Eldmia Egar, a suitable adventurer who accepted the support request requested by the Raviel Adventurer's Guild. I would like to meet the person in charge."
However, the polite response that came back changed the eyes of others, including Mekel..
A man who cut off the captain's hand. Even so, why is the person who made such a fuss about avoiding revenge at all costs, instead of seeking revenge, here? Is it a coincidence? I came all the way here because I heard he showed up in En Glem. Can we really see it as a coincidence that we run into each other like this again??
At the moment, various thoughts passed through Mekel's mind, but the important thing right now was that even though they flinched, the man who identified himself as Eldmia Egar did not seem very suspicious..
Whatever it was, it was a good sign that he didn't think it was a big deal that he flinched when he heard his name. If this guy had been tracking the leader, he would have opened his eyes right away..
"Oh, I see. There's nothing special to call an inspection, but as a formality, could you show me your adventurer's card? Is the elf next to you also an adventurer??"
"yes. Likewise, it is of the same rank.."
"Let's see... I confirmed it. Thank you for your cooperation. The manager dispatched from the guild will be in the temple-like building over there.."
And Meckel's guess was correct. When the road was opened without saying anything, Eldmia's first reaction was to politely bow her head in greetings everywhere. It was only when the sight of Eldmia's back became blurred beyond the snowstorm in the distance that Mekel finally breathed a sigh of relief and belatedly looked back at Abnam..
"Leader. Breathe, breathe. You went, right?."
"Phew...ssssssssssssssssssstts..."
Even though there was a blizzard, the sweat running down your forehead showed how nervous you were. Oh my goodness, someone would think I was alone in the summer. Before I saw it in person, I wondered why I was so shocked at the mere mention of its name, but after seeing it face to face, I understood..
Regardless of his skills, that guy is fucking dangerous. That's usually the look in the eyes of those who pull out their swords if they make a mistake, no matter how many opponents there are. And most of those crazy people were just plain cool..
"Crazy, that's 15 years old?"
"What on earth does a young guy eat and train to make his body look like that? I want to know too, fuck."
Looking at Abnam, who was sitting next to the campfire pretending to be calm but still shaking his hands, his subordinates helped him one by one. No one gnashed their teeth at him for showing weakness. All of them have at least once experienced something fatal that broke their hearts..
"Still, didn't you pass by without recognizing the captain's face? It's not okay?"
"I don't know, fuck..."
I couldn't figure out if he just passed by because he didn't know, or if he just noticed it because he didn't even come to the western part near Ogwen, or if he just turned a blind eye because Avnam didn't go to Eldmia, but Eldmia came to where Avnam was..
Since I strictly kept the words I said on the day my arm was cut off, would it be better to reveal them proudly? What if that guy, who accidentally reveals it and then remembers it coming to the surface, rolls his eyes and tries to hit my head??
"First of all... we'll probably have to say hello at a public event later. Since you said you came as a request, the manager will gather everyone together at least once and ask them to make a statement. Then I will see the reaction and decide.."
"What decision??"
"Whatever it is, you have to choose either to run away or continue the request.."
Abnam did not spend his years in vain. I was proud of the fact that I was able to achieve a rank with the skills I developed that way. However, if someone were to ask me right now whether I could enter a nobleman's mansion and slaughter dozens of people, I would be willing to scold them and tell them to stop talking nonsense. I don't have the confidence to get out alive, and even if I do, I won't be able to stay in the kingdom..
That's why, even after overturning a noble's mansion in the middle of the capital, there was no thought of antagonizing Eldmia, who was calmly living in the kingdom..
"If it smells strange, think it will jump out right away.."
"yes."
Feeling like his body temperature was escaping from the campfire, Abnam hoped that Eldmia would completely forget about him..
◈
"The world is so small."
"hmm? why? This is someone Eldy knows.?"
"Yeah, it's not like I'm pretending to know anything.."
I can't remember the name. He was definitely the guy who saved the life of the person he was trying to kill in Oh Gwen by cutting off his arm..
From what I remember, he looked like a man with a pot belly, but he was muscular and had a lot of scary scars, so he looked a little different, but it was definitely the same person..
"He seemed very nervous for some reason. Is he the person who was harassing him somewhere??"
"Are you harassing me? I just gave appropriate punishment.."
The guy who was swearing that he was going to kill everyone was allowed to put his arms around and even saved his life, so how can I describe that as tormenting him? At first, I thought about pretending like I knew him like Siegmel... but he was very scared and he didn't really want to do anything to me, so I just moved on..
In fact, there was no light shining near Ogwen, so there were some things I didn't really want to tackle, and there were also some things I wanted to rest quickly because I was tired from the crazy snowstorm that was raging right now..
Until we left the capital and reached the vicinity of Raviel, the snowfall was still normal, but as we got closer to this village, it became more and more intense, and now it's falling to a level where we can barely see the surroundings with the fires lit up here and there, so no matter how strong you are, it's okay. Even if you were prepared for the cold, going through a snowstorm like this was frustrating in many ways..
If we had gotten cold by running a little faster, we would have prayed to the fire spirit to get some warmth, but if we did that in the face of an extremely ordinary natural phenomenon, the other spirits might be dissatisfied, so both Asili and I got to the point where our hands and feet started to tingle..
[snowstorm! fun!]
"Yeah, I hope it's fun.."
Only Laika, who doesn't feel the cold, was in an exciting situation, and while heading to the temple, the village he looked around had clearly changed a lot. At the time, it felt like only buildings for people to live in were built except for the temple, but now you can vaguely see the wooden fences that are in the process of being reinforced, starting with the village hall..
"who are you!"
If it weren't for the snowstorm, I would have taken my time leisurely looking around, but I guess it was because the conditions weren't so good that I rode in a bit of a hurry. Even though there was still some distance away, the people standing guard in front of the temple raised their voices and asked:.
"I am Eldmia Egar, a suitable adventurer who has received a request for support from Raviel! I heard that the manager is here.!"
"ah! Welcome! Come inside.!"
It was a very heartwarming response to say they were simply hired mercenaries or adventurers. As we got closer, we saw that the man who welcomed us was holding only a club..
"Nice to meet you, adventurer! It's called Ikob. Thank you for your hard work coming a long way for the village on such a bad day.."
"Nice to meet you, Jacob. You must be from the village.?"
"yes. There is a shortage of workers due to the increasing number of injuries. I'll move the horses to the stables... Oops! There was a dog too.?"
I understand that the construction of the village has progressed quite a bit, but the lack of security personnel due to injuries was not a very good sign. I asked a villager named Ikob, handing over the reins of the horse that Asilier was riding..
"You don't have to worry because the dog understands and listens well. Rather, are there a lot of injuries??"
"Not a lot. I may have known that this blizzard was coming, but there have been quite a few attacks by monsters in the past few days. Just yesterday, four adventurers were injured while fighting orcs.."
Seeing as they didn't seem particularly scared while speaking, it seemed like the adventurers were still doing their job properly. After expressing our gratitude, we entered the temple as he instructed us and were greeted by a space filled with all kinds of miscellaneous items and office supplies..
It was nice to feel the warm warmth, but it wasn't a good feeling as it seemed like the manager knew what it meant to move things needed for work to the temple..
It would mean that there are many injured or that there is not enough space to stay..
"who..."
While I was blankly looking around, making unpleasant guesses, someone spoke to me and I turned my head to see a woman standing there wearing guild attire and holding a large pile of documents..
It was a familiar face..
Because she was the woman who came to me with countless victims and talked about the right to revenge..
