Never touch Eldmia Egga - Episode 305

I wanted to drill a hole in each of the legs of the guys who were laughing and talking, but doing so would cause a setback in the request, so I had no choice but to give up..

However, even so, it was clear that if I left it to him in moderation, the deep anger rising inside him would go out of control and cause a fire, so I compromised by beating him to dust on a blizzard day..

Meanwhile, Asilier, who was calmly sitting behind her, had the luxury of asking the chef who had jumped out in surprise at the commotion for food, and continued eating while waiting to see when it would end. Since I couldn't participate in the meal, I had to resolve the situation by choosing healthy food from the food the adventurers were eating, and it wasn't very pleasant because I felt like a tiger..

"My posture is shaking. Hit it straight in the head."

So, to make it a little more cheerful, I made all the fuckers from the folded gold coins into folded people..

I was making groaning noises because I was at an angle so high that I was almost hitting my head in the broken and shattered remains of tables and chairs, but considering my wounded heart, it didn't matter. I sat in front of Vadna, who was pressing her head to the floor, and asked her about what I had just heard..

"We were having a real fight.?"

"Yes, yes! We and the others have even dragged a high-level adventurer with us! I want to take the initiative and make things a little more comfortable...."

"Hey, you uneducated bastard.."

I kicked the guy's hip bone, which was sticking up in the sky, without even realizing that the excuse wasn't even worth hearing to the end. Thanks to this, Badna fell as he was thrown, but quickly returned to his original position and rested intently, resting on his head, as if nothing had happened..

"What are you going to do if you get attacked and the village gets damaged due to the failed request? Why do you carry around a priest who knows how to bring the dead back to life??"

"Well, I have to follow the line to prevent something like that from happening...."

"What is the line? Earn a lot of money. Fuck you.."

They say it's like a custom of etiquette, but even in a past life, if something like custom gets in the way, nothing will go right. I tapped the back of his neck with the empty bowl and continued talking..

"So, is it customary for you to beat me like this and hit me on the head? Didn't you learn that if you mock an adventurer's reputation, you'll get stabbed??"

"Because I don’t think it’s really me..."

"Did I bluster you or tell you some sophistry? The fucking guillotine said out loud that it was me, so what? Don’t you think it’s you? They say that in dungeons, the ones who lack imagination are the ones who die first. Did you get your level by playing cards??"

In fact, it had nothing to do with not believing it. If it just ended there, I would have moved on. But to openly laugh at me, knowing that I was a low-level adventurer who had received a request from the capital, was an act that crossed the line..

If you only trusted the number of people and fooled around, you would have to endure the consequences of getting your head kicked in proportion to the number of people..

"Ha, I was planning on just working quietly...."

At the end, the mercenaries who had no involvement in the adventurer's mess ended up treating it all as a spectacle and eating it as if they were excited. After today, most of them probably won't be able to say a word even if they treat them like idiots..

After shaking things up, my anger subsided a bit, so I decided to get to the point..

"Yeah, that aside. If you're managing your business, you probably have a plan, right? How did you decide on the policy for carrying out the request? They say even orcs are coming out.."

"It's not a very large-scale attack and it's not something that can be prevented, so I just leave it alone...."

"What bullshit? An orc came out and he just left it alone.?"

The monsters that appear in areas near the capital are mostly kobolds and goblins. Even the common slime is hard to see because civilians have completely uprooted it because it is difficult to deal with. Of course, it is not something that costs a penny or two, but the kingdom is sincere in that regard..

In this way, the gateway city serves as a border that indirectly informs the safe zone managed by the capital. They say there is a reason why there are more thieves than monsters around here..

Unless a dungeon occurred, an orc suddenly appeared in an area where only one or two stronger monsters had accidentally rolled in..

I don't know the specific distribution map of monsters by heart, so I can't be sure, but the closest orc habitat is probably a long way away, and it appeared here..

"Did you make this decision knowing what it meant that orcs appeared near the gateway city??"

Monsters are moving out of their territory this winter. I don't know if it happened to be in the direction of the capital, but in any case, it is an unusual situation. It could be a story that a powerful demon destroying the existing ecosystem has arisen somewhere, or, as a very unlikely possibility, it could have been the aftermath of a demon strike force wandering through the kingdom's territory..

Above all, unluckily for us and fortunately for the monsters, they settle down safely in the vicinity and welcome spring, which means a huge party for the village, but how can she so calmly call for laissez-faire??

"Well, we were hired to protect the village...."

"okay. protect. So, if monsters creep out, you need to figure out where they come from and what the problem is, and root them out, right??"

This is the basic principle of subjugating monsters. Trace back the den of monsters causing damage and destroy them. It doesn't make sense to assign a rank without knowing that, so it means that this bastard did this even though he knew, and just tried to take care of the approaching monsters and ignore the rest..

This is obvious even without looking at it. It is clear that the idea was to save monsters for future work. As the cockroach seeds dry up, the work to exterminate them decreases, so there is no reason to act like this unless the idea is to leave the cockroaches behind..

It's an idea that only an uneducated child would do..

"There's no need for it all. I reported to Raviel that the orcs came out.?"

There's no way I could have done it. It's obvious that the answer from the guild will be to subdue the orc colony. Vadna just hesitated and couldn't answer, and since that was the answer, I kicked him in the hip again..

It was a very poor price to pay for ruining my winter vacation plans, but I couldn't help it. We have to use these bastards now..

"If you fought among yourself over this issue, you wouldn't still be in charge. Do you have any other opinions about my reasoning that you fought to be more comfortable here? Let me know if you have any. If it's reasonable, I'll listen, but if not, I'll leave a hole in your fucking head and use it to lure hungry orcs.."

I even took out a needle, hoping to catch just one person, but no one raised their head or hand. My life seems like something I cherish. I said, stopping Vadna from hitting her head again..

"Even if you all attack me, you can't defeat me alone, so all that petty fighting has become useless. You can either follow my advice and get a chance to make money and keep your prank on the town a secret, or you can pretend to listen and run away early tomorrow morning and live as a fugitive for the rest of your life. Those who will make money will get up, and those who will make money will keep getting their ass kicked.."

The adventurers belonging to the Folded Gold Coin, who had their heads stuck in their heads, got up quickly without worrying about who was first. I really didn't like that little thing, but I did like the fact that the five guys who had run away earlier came in in a hurry and stood next to them. I'm glad you understood me well..

"Tomorrow's task is to subdue orcs. The village's expenses will be covered by mercenaries, residents, and the injured who are in better condition, so don't think about staying.."

"Well, I'm in a hurry.."

Should I say that I have a lot of courage? I didn't expect that there would be someone who would use it as an excuse to say that he was a scumbag even after being beaten like that. What's even more surprising is that other people, who are presumed to be high-level adventurers, looked as if they agreed with the person who spoke..

Of course my answer was fixed.

"It was your choice to follow the level quest, so why should I care??"

The faces of the imperial officials became thoughtful at the ironclad logic that could not be refuted. This is the request you chose. Hold on to your evil spirit.

"And the mercenaries? I'm sorry for making a fuss during the meal, but I'll just say it was something to do to kill time, and I'd like to make a request to Director Carl Gulls.."

There was no reason to pay any more attention to these junk, so I turned around and looked at the mercenaries. Their eyes, which were watching with interest, were colored with curiosity..

"what request?"

"I need a friend to go to Raviel through the blizzard. I need to report that an orc has appeared. 이 새끼들은 믿을 수가 없어서."

At my answer, the mercenaries' attention focused on one person. The person who caught all the attention was a middle-aged man with a stylish mustache reminiscent of an English gentleman who had been eating very calmly from earlier. I saw him eating a large amount of meat, but before I knew it, he had emptied his plate neatly and looked at me and said,.

"Would you like to come and talk for a moment??"

"Rather, I would like to ask you a favor.."

There's no reason to be rude to a polite person. But when the mercenaries saw my reaction, they began to look at me like a crazy person with a double personality. Unlike the ragtag group of adventurers, who were quite disciplined, we passed by them and sat down in front of the mustachioed man. He stroked his mustache and slowly opened his mouth..

The question that came out of his mouth was beyond my expectations..

"Have you heard of Balakia??"

Is there really something magical about winter? There is no end to unexpected encounters? Are Englem and Raviel that close??

"The loudmouth of the Blue Owl Mercenaries?"

Even though I was feeling a bit dumbfounded, I answered anyway and the man smiled lightly and nodded..

"My name is Carl Gulls, the 4th platoon leader of the Blue Owl Mercenaries. It was an honor to see the famous Levien guillotine in person.."
