The day went by smoothly and the next day dawned..

In the meantime, I was hoping that a few distracted drivers would donate money again, but unfortunately, that didn't happen. I thought that these people, who were obviously superior in skill to the knights who were robbed by me, might have come for the sake of honor, but as Margrave Kelvast said, I had no idea whether it had something to do with the underpinnings of using me to make up a story..

To be honest, when I got there, I had greater expectations of meeting a talented person than money, but it was inevitable. Not long after I opened my eyes in such regret, Margrave Kelvast, who had offered me a very early breakfast for a noble, handed me something after finishing the meal, which was not a document or anything, but a dog tag that looked like an adventurer's rating list..

"I guess it would be better this way than a document. I bet you can use it anywhere in the West Zone.."

As expected, he was a man of great influence. When I asked if they were afraid of the possibility of misuse, they said it was more like a one-way ticket..

"It is something that can be passed through without any restrictions only when moving away from Kelvast. So, make sure you don't miss anything on your way back. There are no disadvantages when you go back, but they will only let you through after an investigation, which will be a lot of trouble for you.."

They really make all sorts of things. Isn’t this actually something only used for outcasts??

Well, even if that were the case, it didn't matter since it was the perfect item for me who was in a hurry to leave. Margrave Kelvast also nodded in satisfaction as he accepted the item while quietly expressing his gratitude..

"It was a disappointing meeting in many ways, but I think I did enough and it was organized smoothly. As for the issue related to the gate... I'll try to discuss things amicably with ETISEL. As for the rest of the details, I will leave a comment so that users can help.."

It seemed like a nuance to tell people to stay as guests as long as they wanted until preparations were completed, but at the same time, it could also be interpreted to mean that they should leave as quickly as possible. It would be fun to sit around like Jin-sang, but since the cost is my time, I decided to endure it this time..

"Thank you for your consideration, but since we finished preparations yesterday, we would like to leave as is.."

"Well, since you said you suddenly came through the gate, your acquaintances must be very worried.."

"Yes."

I'm so worried that my back will probably be on fire when I go back..

I felt like I was breaking into a cold sweat because the reality I had been ignoring was suddenly thrust right in front of me, but in any case, Margrave Kelvast's final conversation ended smoothly. After leaving the place, I gathered up all my belongings and came out. Seeing my horse, who made me feel good just by looking at it, and the abundant equipment safely placed on top of it, I started to feel like I understood a little bit why camping people get equipment disease..

Of course, the good feeling stopped there..

As soon as I left the inner city, completely crossed the city's organized roads and gates, and left Kelvast, what appeared before my eyes was a huge wilderness, and just looking around the sight while exhaling long breaths made me sigh and feel at a loss..

No matter how hard I worked to plan and prepare for the future, I suddenly ended up alone in a foreign country where I knew nothing....

"Ha, I can feel it.."

There was only laughter and swearing. In any case, the obstacle was the same whether I drove the horse forward or stayed in place, so I decided to move forward and overcome the obstacle for now..

Perhaps because it was early in the morning, there were few queues or travelers heading to the city, even though they were still following what could be called a road. If I had known the route, I would have struggled with boredom, but for me, who had to rely on a map to get everything from start to finish, such a feeling was no different from luxury, and every time I came to my senses, I moved forward, feeling the magic of time and distance passing by in a flash..

Maybe that's why I set off looking at the rising morning sun, but before I knew it, the sun was starting to set behind me..

"Your previous owner was truly a fortune. It was a blessing."

After receiving deep satisfaction from patting the neck of a horse that listened well and was strong, I set up camp at the edge of the forest a little away from the river. After looking around for a while, I found quite a few things that could be used as firewood, so I decided to just rely on the campfire until I went to sleep..

I hurriedly unraveled the thread, hung it on the surrounding trees, hung the bell, set up the tent, and finally installed the magic stone stove and crime prevention magic tools inside, and the sun completely set at the perfect timing. If I had saved money on the tent, it was clear that I would not have made it in time because I was bothered by the poles and trestles that kept falling over..

"Hmm, not bad."

Maybe it was because I moved alone, but it was something I had always done, and I felt a strange sense of satisfaction. Since I had more time left than I thought, I changed my dinner plan, which I had originally planned to eat simply, and decided to make stew..

Well, I just boiled the meat I was planning to grill today or tomorrow with potatoes and various seasonings..

If I had had a bag, I would have taken out Lovell's seasoning, which I learned how to make as a reward for sparring with Catherine some time ago, but as I was disappointed, I boiled it and tasted it, but it was still very disappointing. This is more like soup than stew..

"It smells good though."

In my previous life, I couldn't even cook properly, but I was amazed at my ability to improve day by day, so I was absent-mindedly waiting for it to be finished, and at some point, I started hearing artificial noise from afar..

It's a sound I've been getting really sick of lately. The sound of weapons clashing.

"Damn, I should have used the magic stone stove.."

I lit a bonfire to save money, but I'm already hearing noises like that, so I'm not in a good mood. I listened closely to the occasional shouts and it seemed like people were fighting each other, not monsters..

Since it wasn't any of my business, I left it feeling like it wouldn't matter as long as it didn't approach, but somehow the sound of fighting disappeared, and the lights began to flicker and come towards me..

"Ha... they say they don't even touch dogs when they're eating, but they try to touch people.."

I felt like if I left it there any longer, I would break the trap I had set up and ruin my meal, so I picked up the ax that was lying next to me and got up..

◈

On the way, you meet thieves..

This is a very common occurrence in the Western Kingdom. Even in places where cities and villages were close together, robbers were common, and if you went a little further away, there were thieves who would take over a reasonably good place and prey on their prey..

This was possible because it was a place where fights not only between kingdoms but also between nobles were frequent. It is so common that many mercenary groups are formed every day, but are divided in a single battle and reduced to bandits, so much so that no one even considers it strange..

As a result, there are many cases where people approach them pretending to be common thieves and attempt to assassinate them, or attempt to end a grudge relationship..

Like right now.

"Captain, we have finished capturing important people.."

After beating the backs of those who were losing and gasping after a long battle with a club and tying them up one by one, the gunman reported in a calm tone, and the man called the leader quietly nodded..

This was just one of the common and messy back-and-forth fights between nobles, but it was by no means a light matter. Those they capture today will become huge shackles for the rival families. Considering the unstable plan and the enemy's incredible skills, it was fortunate that the work was completed well and there were few injuries..

"What should I do with that light? I'm sure you heard it."

"...Even tomorrow morning, if you notice something strange and look around, your plans may be disrupted.."

Since I couldn't leave even the slightest element of anxiety behind, I had to kill him. I felt sorry for involving an unrelated third party, but I can't help but consider it bad luck..

After hearing his answer, the ten gunmen regrouped before even hearing the detailed explanation, and moved toward the flickering light on one side of the forest, leaving the five wounded men as guards for the tied prisoners. The goal was to hurry without having to maintain a prayer secret, so the movement was quick as we approached without turning off the torch..

But the encounter was quicker than they expected. Because the other person was also coming towards them..

The other person spoke while standing at a distance where it was difficult to see his face properly because the light from the torch had not yet reached him properly..

"I don't talk for a long time. If you don’t want to be fucked, get out.."

As soon as I saw him, I started swearing and looked like he was an adventurer or mercenary who had lived a rough life. Seeing that he was carrying a large two-handed ax on one shoulder, it was highly likely that he was an adventurer. It seemed like he would have had a hard time just swinging it around, but seeing as how he abandoned the advantage of the camp he had set up and entered the forest full of trees, it seemed like he was a little lacking in brains..

Well, I guess that means he was so confident against 10 people. Looks like he's a barbarian warrior..

"Consider yourself unlucky.."

They had already gotten used to the joint attack by combining dozens and hundreds of times, so there was no need for signals or cheers. As soon as the captain finished speaking, the gangsters ran forward, adjusting their speed precisely..

I had no intention of letting down my guard just because I was one person. Taking action like that showed that he was already confident in his abilities, so if he made a mistake, there was a chance that someone could get injured..

"Do the damn thing."

Sure enough, the other person was not afraid even though ten people were running towards him with their swords drawn..

Just fixing the axe.

The gunmen guessed the range of the ax and prepared to swing it..

The ax swung at the expected range and the moment I prepared to pull away, the other person whistled..

-profit!

signal. pincers. trap.

Reasonable suspicion, based on the sound of the whistle and the confident attitude of the other party, grabbed the assailants' ankles and raised their guard, but by that time, something unidentified had already pierced the heads of more than five people. The captain, who saw the scene a little later, shouted in astonishment..

"It's an archer! It was a trap...!"

But his cry did not last until the end..

The ax he thought he was going to swing suddenly flew out and landed in his chest with a blunt impact..

Even though he felt his body floating, unable to overcome the weight, the captain could not erase his doubts. How do you throw a weapon like this like a hatchet? Even after falling to the floor, rolling over was impossible due to the weight of the axe. At first, because he had time to think, he thought the armor he was wearing did its job, but when he raised his head and looked at the ax, he saw that more than half of the blade on one side was stuck..

'Damn it, I was numb because death was approaching..'

Still, I looked ahead with the hope that I would be able to deal with it somehow since I threw the weapon, but all I saw was the subordinates who had all died in that short moment and the owner of the ax coming towards me. In his hand was a sword that appeared to belong to his men..

Looking at the blood dripping, it looked like he had just snatched the weapon and cut down his subordinates to death..

"Fuck, where on earth did this monster come from?..."

Is this a coincidence? At the last moment when everything in the world suddenly became unfair, the man who was looking down at him muttered softly and raised his sword..

"I guess I was unlucky."

'You fucking savage bastard. What a shitty thing to say... Ah, that's what I said..'

The sword was inserted into the heart of the captain, who came to the realization belatedly while blood was pouring out and he could not speak..
