“He's such a famous person?”
“then. There was no one I didn't know in South Harbor.!”
The messy-haired boy who lived his whole life in the boring country town of 'Inbury' longed for adventure and the city. South Harbor, the largest city in the South, was a very interesting story for the boy..
“Oh, lie. How many people are there in South Harbor??”
“That's how famous it was. But, this is a secret. You must never tell anyone.”
“secret?”
“huh. That person is the bloody prosecutor. It's a secret.”
“why‘?”
“Dad said it was a secret? Maybe they're on a secret mission.”
“secret mission……
As the messy-haired boy swallowed dryly and nodded, the chubby boy from South Harbor chattered excitedly..
“When angry, the sword emits flames. It is not just ordinary fire, but an extremely hot fire flower called from the salt world..”
“Flame of the Salt World……
“Every time you swing it, dozens of people fall, so not even the thieves can handle it. I cut down the robber baron and the ‘creeping dragon’ with one blow.?”
“A creeping dragon? I heard from my uncle that the creeping dragon was killed by Prince Ulkar..”
“We joined forces and killed them. That's why Prince Ulkar appointed the bloody swordsman as a knight..”
“Wow, knight.”
When the messy-haired boy made a dazed expression, the girl who was sitting still poked his side..
“Brother, let’s go quickly. Mom told me to cut all the grass in the oat field by lunchtime..”
“You go first. I'll follow you soon.”
The messy-haired boy stood up, shaking his butt, and grabbed the chubby boy's hand and dragged him away..
“Rupert, we have a wooden sword at home. Would you like to go see it??”
“wooden sword?”
“huh. I made it myself, and it's very sturdy. Something like a goblin can be taken down in one go.?”
The boy called Rupert hesitated for a moment and then shook his head..
“no. My dad said I shouldn't go into the village..”
“Oh, that's right. “Then, shall we pick up some twigs and make one?” The girl was surprised by the messy-haired boy's words and said,.
“Brother, have you forgotten that last week I was walking around making a bow and almost got bitten by a wild dog? If I do that again, I'll get kicked out of the house.?”
“If you just stay quiet, you won't get scolded. At that time, you told your mom about it and you got scolded.!”
“why are you mad at me!”
“That's because you're annoying. Go quickly and pull up the grass!”
“Yiing••••••
When the girl cried and turned away, the messy-haired boy sat back down, sighing as if he was in a bad mood..
“I'm sick of it all. I also want to leave the village and adventure the world..”
“Adventure is not that easy, Navari. Oh my gosh, there are thieves, heretics, and monsters. How many dangerous things are there?.”
Navari, the messy-haired boy, answered while lying down on the grass..
“It would be nice if I had abilities like blood magic. Then you will become very strong like this bloody swordsman you mentioned.?”
“What a rare ability blood magic is. Besides, most blood magicians are just acting like boring doctors.?”
The chubby boy, Rupert, also laid down..
“I wish there was something like divine power rather than blood magic..”
“Divine power? If you become a priest, you can't get married.?”
“Just become a paladin.”
“Paladin? Not a cathedral knight?”
“huh. A paladin from the Calandari Church.
hey." At the mention of the Calandari Church, Navari’s expression darkened a little..
“but… … That's heresy?”
“What are you talking about? Then you are saying that Princess Theodora is a heretic.?”
“Princess Theodora is a woman, and she is no longer from our kingdom, so it doesn't matter whether she is a heretic or not. My uncle said that.”
“As long as you have divine power, what country does it matter what country you are from? Money and power will come in droves..”
Navari's eyes shook slightly at Rupert's words..
‘Is this why my uncle told me not to hang out with city people?.’
It was then.
Doo doo doo doo.
A group of men and horses ran along the open path between the wide fields..
There were six men in total, all wearing black cloaks and black chain armor..
Navari's eyes widened when he spotted them..
“‘It's 'black wolves'.”
“black wolves?”
“huh. bounty hunters.”
Curiosity filled the eyes of the two boys. The boys ran to the entrance of the village, following the black wolves as if they were possessed..
“But how do you know these people??”
“came to my village a few weeks ago.”
Nabari recalled the bounty hunters he had seen at that time, especially the leader. He was a man as quiet as a rock, but with sharp eyes like a wolf..
The two boys ran to the village entrance and hid on the side of the road as if they were carrying out a secret operation..
Navari glanced at the black wolves and then looked disappointed. Because the head man was nowhere to be found..
“What's going on in our town??”
“I came to find someone.”
“what kind of person?”
“……There's no reason to tell you that. I heard merchants came to town a few days ago.?”
The one-eyed man who was talking with the vigilante leader looked around the village. Then I noticed a group camping near a wooden fence and pointed in that direction..
“Is it them??”
“exactly.”
“No one entered the village?”
The vigilante leader snorted at the one-eyed man's question..
“There's no reason to tell you that.”
“ under.”
The one-eyed man sneered and rummaged through his arms. Then he took out some parchment and unfolded it..
“We are doing the work of the Marquis of Alphard. If you don't want to fall under a terrible curse, you'd better cooperate..”
The vigilante leader closed his mouth at the low threat. Then he sighed and shrugged his shoulders..
“There are three people in town..”
“……three? who is that?”
“I don't know either. Well, there are only knights, barbarians, and patients..”
“Knights, Barbarians, and Patients?”
The one-eyed man frowned and was lost in thought for a moment. Then he asked the vigilante leader,.
“Where are they staying now??”
“……This is a big old man’s house..”
The one-eyed man looked back and gave an order..
“Tobias, follow me. Check the rest over there.”
After saying that, he threw two silver coins at the vigilante leader and rode his horse into the village..
Rupert and Navari looked at each other.
“where to go?”
“I can't go into the village anyway. Let's go towards the campsite..”
“but……
Navari glanced toward the village. This is because I was more curious about fire-breathing knights than ordinary merchants or mercenaries..
Rupert noticed the sign and said.
“Well then, let’s split up for a moment. We'll tell each other later what happened..”
“good!”
Nabari quickly ran to the village. Thanks to taking a narrow shortcut, Nabari was able to arrive at the village chief's house before the two bounty hunters. The boy quickly hid himself in the elm tree..
“Hey! stay inside?”
The one-eyed man shouted, but there was no response from the village chief's house..
“If you don't come out, we'll go in.!”
After shouting like that a few times, the door finally opened with a squeak. Nabari was slightly impressed..
“……and.”
The boy had never seen such a large person in his life..
The knight in black plate armor was amazing, but the barbarian with his upper body exposed was so large that it made my mouth drop..
“ You guys?”
A low voice came from the knight. He was a handsome man not found in the countryside, but he had a cold and expressionless face, which made me feel uncomfortable..
The one-eyed man seemed to have felt it too, swallowing dry saliva and saying:.
“……Nice to meet you. We are employed by the family of the Marquis Alphard..”
“so.”
“Is there someone looking for you?”
“who?”
“I can't say that..”
The knight stared at the one-eyed man..
Even though the opponent was on a horse, the knight was so tall that it did not feel like he was looking up..
Nabari's appearance reminded him of a snake he had once seen in a wheat field. A poisonous snake with its tongue hanging out in a low posture.
“……whatever?”
“I heard there were three people in the group..”
“however.”
“where is the other one?”
The knight placed his hand on the long sword handle..
“why is that?”
“……“I need to see your face.” “The face?”
“exactly. We need to find out if he's the one we're looking for or not..”
“Who are you looking for?.”
“I can't tell you.”
Nabari felt numb for some reason. Because it seemed like the snake was about to jump out at any moment..
Hehehehe.
As the horse began to stomp and back away, the two bounty hunters quickly tugged on the reins..
“Are you looking for a wizard??”
“……“I can’t tell you.” The black gauntlets suddenly grabbed hold of the sword handle..
“......okay?”
The knight’s mouth twisted..
“not here.”
“……what is that,”
“It means turn off.”
“If you show me your face, I'll be gone.”
short silence.
“Ute Kwai.”
This bar n *
Just as the poisonous snake was about to jump out.
“trunnion?”
small but sonorous voice.
The knight looked back with his eyes wide open..
“ Ellen?”
Navari followed the knight's gaze and found a woman who appeared to be in her mid to late teens..
‘……What is that??’
The woman was floating about two spans in the air, her golden hair slowly swaying as if she was wrapped in a light breeze..
Her skin was so white that her veins were visible, and her long eyelashes, pointed nose, and pink lips reminded her of a fairy from a legend..
Navari believed that the woman was something other than human. Because it was so mysterious..
“How and when did it happen??”
The driver's impression underwent a dramatic change. A brightened face. It looks really nice, Navari thought..
“•♦••••Phew.” The one-eyed man who had his hand in his chest sighed. Then I wiped the cold sweat from my forehead..
The knight standing next to the woman looked back in surprise. Then he looked at the one-eyed man's mood and made a puzzled expression for a moment..
“……It wasn't. I'll just go now.”
“no?”
In response to the knight's question, the one-eyed man shrugged his shoulders..
“exactly. There's a problem?”
“what does that mean?”
“……What do you mean? It means that the person we are looking for is not the wizard there..”
The knight quietly narrowed his eyes and looked at the one-eyed man. Then he put the knife away and nodded..
“……Good.”
“……Good. then.”
The one-eyed man looked at the knight, the barbarian, and the woman for a moment, then turned his head..
Once the two bounty hunters were out of sight, the woman suddenly spoke..
“But poi. What is that inside?”
“huh? That's it?”
“There's a bunch of smelly hair..”
“Oh, pig? I picked it up nearby. Other than that, my body is fine.?”
“Yeah, I think things are getting better..”
“Thank goodness. I was so worried because my fever went down but I couldn't wake up..”
“……But why did you pick up the pig??”
“The child must have been sick and his body was hot. I brought you because I was thinking of you. Aren’t you hungry? Do you want to eat??”
“He saw the pig and thought of me.?”
“That's not what you're saying. Ah, the milk here is fresh and good. Should I boil it for you, even if it’s Tarak porridge??”
“What is Tarakjuk? Also, why do you keep talking about eating? I think I'm a real pig?”
“No, you weren't able to eat properly for a few days because you were sick..”
“I just want to eat some bread. And, throw that away quickly. It stinks..”
“……Hey, why are you so heartless??”
Navari was a little disappointed as he sensed the conversation between the two. The man who was like a poisonous snake and the woman who was like a fairy are now ordinary people.
Because it looked like.
It was then that Navari made eye contact with the knight..
“omg,”
The startled boy sucked in a breath. Black eyes with a hint of red stared at the boy..
The boy, who was frozen like a frog encountering a snake, could not even move until the knight smiled and disappeared..
