Chapter 58 - Eleventh Episode - Zeshum Ruins (2)

During the carriage ride, Maizen told us his adventures about this and that.

“The advantage is out there. We were in a circle of goblins in a flash. So I stepped forward and said, ‘Hey, let’s settle this, one on one, leader to leader!’ “

“Whoa, whoa, whoa.”

I struggled to minister to him, fighting off the sleepiness.

“No, I wish I could show you how heroic I was back then. I think it would be pretty picturesque. I’m thinking that one day when I’m hired by a nobleman, I’ll ask an artist to draw a recreation of that time.”

“Oh, that’s good.”

Goblins are a type of demonic beast.

They are around one meter tall and have large pointed ears.

It would be easy to understand that they are green goblins.

They aren’t strong, but they grow fast and have a high reproductive capacity. In addition, they are said to be strangely intelligent, cunning, and cruel.

There are also said to be fearsome goblins that dig pits filled with manure.

Because they are born in places where the magic field is greatly distorted, there is a high probability that demons are lurking in the vicinity of goblins.

It is said that there are goblins that look like adorable little girls, known as Gnomes, by the way.

Both males and females have a girlish appearance and are said to have a propensity for wearing human clothing.

They may look adorable on the outside, but they are of course cruel and inhumane inside.

It is said that there is no end to the number of pedophiles who enter dungeons to get a glimpse of the Gnomes, only to be beaten up by innocent, smiling goblins.

It is said that they are a race born to catch humans off guard.

“Well, It’s not that goblins can understand the language, but all three of us were beaten up by them. I tactfully threw the food far away and managed to escape with my life. How is it, amazing right? You can’t be like me just by being strong. Adventurers have to be clever. If you don’t think about it, you’re just a limb, but if you’re like me, people rely on you.”

“I-I see…… T-, that’s awesome, that’s for sure. In more ways than one.”

“Right?”

He’s talking in a cocky way, but was that bravery?

It seems more like a failure of sorts.

I rub my sleepy eyes and lightly poke Mea, who is sleeping soundly next to me, with my elbow to wake her up.

“Ehh? What’s wrong?”

“Hey, let’s hear it for a change. Maizen is all like an investor after all.”

I keep my voice low and whisper that to Mea.

“But this guy’s story is all about bragging and bragging, so it’s not very interesting at all…”

“That was a mistake.”

“…Are you sure?”

Yeah, it’s true.

At least I’m not lying.

“What are you whispering about? I feel lonely because I’m missing out.”

“N- no, I’m just hoping that the search for the ruins will be a success.”

“Haha! That’s it! I’m here for you, don’t worry!”

………As for me, the more Maizen talks, the more anxious I get.

I thought I was going to play the game, hoping to make a huge profit all at once, but was it too soon?

Maizen’s narrative continued late into the night.

How can he talk so fluently?

Maybe it’s because I showed that I was willing to listen, or maybe it’s because Mea doesn’t care if I fall asleep or not, but when I do, she shakes me by the shoulders to wake me up.

Was Mea’s attitude the right thing to do?

I’m grateful for the fact that she’s going to be doing the night watch all the time.

As long as you don’t involve me in it.

“Speaking of which, Abel. Why did you decide to become an adventurer?”

“No, it seemed like a quick way to make money without credit…”

Maybe that’s why the majority of the Adventurer Support Center was there.

“To tell you the truth, I was rescued by an adventurer once. I’ve always been a bit of a reckless person. My father had carved a wooden sword for my birthday, and I went all alone near a den of monsters. Just when I thought it was all over, an adventurer came along and quickly slayed the magic beast. That’s when I decided to become an adventurer who fights with the same sword as he did.”

It was a decent reason. It’s kind of frustrating.

I mean, You’re the one who brought this up for me to talk about.

“I got quite a few bite marks from the bite then. My parents asked me if I wanted to get a specialist to remove them with magic when that guy helped me out. I’ve decided to keep it that way so I don’t forget that.”

“Hee~…… I kind of like that. Where are those scars?”

“It’s hard to show because of the location…… or maybe it’s embarrassing……… If you really want to see it, well, I don’t mind……”

Maizen says and puts his hand on the belt of his trousers.

“I’m okay! As I thought I’m good!”

“R-really?”

Why does this guy look a little disappointed?

But at first I thought he was a tough guy for a lot of reasons, but after talking to him, he doesn’t seem to be a bad guy.

But it’s still a bit of a tough guy.

“Yeah, Abel is a nice guy. As soon as I’m talking, people start talking and try to shut me down. I haven’t talked this hard in a long time.”

…… He doesn’t sound like a bad guy.

“I’ll announce to them to accept you guys as my subordinate when I eventually rise through the ranks. As a favor as the leader.”

“T-thanks. I’ll look forward to it.”

I thought I heard a noise in the distance.

” …just now, isn’t that a magic beast?””

I say and look at the direction of the sound.

“Hmm?　What’s new?　Just in time to show you my semi-E-class adventurer swordsmanship! You can take a good look at it and use it as a reference! Don’t miss your every move! Think carefully about what your intentions are in every move! That’s how I came to be so strong!”

“Hey, maybe we should at least wait and see if we can see…”

Maizen jumped off the carriage, drew his sword, and ran towards the sound.

“Baoh!\'”

Emerging from behind a rock was a large, brown-furred dog.

This appearance, probably a hound.

A subspecies of the Garm I had defeated last time.

As I recall, James was not that wary of hounds.

Even he might have been able to manage it. It shouldn’t be that strong of a magic beast.

It would be fine to keep an eye on it.

“Yahh! Teyahh! You shall be the rust of my sword!”

The Hound ducks his sword and pounces on Maizen just in time.

Is that, is it okay?

Isn’t he pretty much cornered?

No, but he was so confident……

“Damn, you’re doing pretty well……I’m going to recognize you as my rival.”

Maizen lowered his sword and breathed on his shoulder as his arms tired from the weight of the sword.

At that moment, the hound pounced on Maizen.

“Baoh!”

Nothing was okay!

I quickly raise my wand and point it at the Hound.

“Ugyaaaaaa!”

Meisen screams and raises his sword.

It was well countered and the tip of the sword sliced through the hound’s throat.

“H-how’s that? That’s about it. I deliberately showed them an opening and let them jump on me.”

Meisen put the tip of his sword to the ground while breathing hard and said that while looking at me.

Wasn’t he shouting in the bare minimum now?

I don’t believe it was an act. It’s not easy to scream like that.

“N-nice fight…… Leader.”

“Hahaha, as a semi-E-class adventurer, this is about as low as a lowly magic beast can get!　Hold on, I’m going to take them of their fangs and pelts. The receptionist used to compliment me on how good I was at skinning… hmm?”

“Baoh!” “Baoh!” “Baoh!”

Three hounds ran over to Maizen.

They are all angry. They are probably the companions of the hound that I just defeated.

“Uwoooooooooo!”

He threw out his sword and Maizen ran towards us.

“Wake the driver up and run! I’ll draw these guys away from me, and I’ll take advantage of the opportunity!”

“Isn’t what you’re saying and what you’re doing different at all!”

Maizen took a big tumble.

“Hiiiiiiiiii!”

I point my wand at the Hounds.

Three magic circles emerge.

“Flame, form the ball”

Fireballs were shot out of each magic circle and shot through the hound’s head.

Three hounds collapsed on the spot.

“Oi, are you alright!”

Maizen fearfully raised his head and looked around.

“J-just now… what …?”

Maizen stopped looking when he saw me that I was holding my wand.

His eyes, were on point.

“A-, ahhh…… Yeah, thanks for saving me. T-thank you…”

He said that as he shook it off, “Um…… leader position, do you want to take over?” He continued.

No, no, I don’t care who the leader is…

If you want to do it, do what you want.
