Chapter 233: Subjugating Cultists (2)

Chapter 233: Subjugating Cultists (2) "Do you want this?"

I guess hearing the words, 'Are you out of your mind?' Was it because of my mood, right?

Even if it were true, I was confident I wouldn't be surprised.

Other requests were just as annoying, but mushrooms and monsters won't try their best to fuck me.

If it weren't for our relationship with the saint, we would never have received a request like this.

The Adventurer's Guild receptionist quickly went through the process of confirming that we had received this request.

They say they will accept an even more bothersome request among the more bothersome requests. Isn't it like catching a fish?

Whatever the reason, thanks to the receptionist's quick work, we were able to receive detailed information in one day.

Chop rock!

I spread out the map on the desk and made a plan based on the data.

"According to the information we received, this is where the cultist's altar is located."

The place I pointed to was a remote forest more than two days away from the nearest city.

"It's a forest."

"It's a forest. It became very annoying."

"Why? " Isn't it great if it's a forest?"

I kindly explained it to Asil, who didn't understand why being in the forest was such a bother.

"Forests are good to live in."

"What does that matter?"

"Lets think. "What if there was a cultist's altar in a place where people can't live, like a dungeon or a cave, and there was a village nearby?"

"Ah. That's right. It means that there is a good reason for creating a village in a place where it is difficult to live. The village itself must be suspicious."

"Yes. On the other hand, forests are much better to live in than those places, so even if there is an altar nearby, it is difficult to tell whether the village is a cult base or just a village."

"This map says there are three villages nearby."

"That's the problem. Because I can't tell which of the three is a village where cultists live, or which is just a village."

"Should I just take another request?"

"The receptionist handled it so quickly because I was worried that it would sound like that. It's too late now."

"Ugh... I'm sick of headaches like this.

I left Asil covering his head and talked to Flora again.

I was very busy because I had more than one or two things to think about.

◆

"Potion."

"I took care of it."

"Map."

"I took care of it." S~eaʀᴄh the Nôvel(F)ire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Food."

"I took care of it." It's long, though. Is this enough? "I'll come back and see you one more time."

"Okay. " It's been a while since I've done something like an adventurer, so let's check it out properly."

The next day, we were busy checking our luggage from the morning.

Because the location where the altar was confirmed was very remote, camping out for a few days was inevitable regardless of which city the portal was used for.

When was the last time you camped?

There was a time when I went to the academy for a training session, but I had all the supplies ready, so it was more like camping. In the Erotic Trap Dungeon, I prepared everything for camping, but I ended up spending the whole night in the dungeon, so I didn't camp.

Wait, have you ever experienced camping?

I need to prepare a little more thoroughly.

"Asil! Check the materials for the tent!"

"Also? " I've already checked it several times."

"It's our first time, so let's be a little more thorough." As long as you check carefully, I will use the inventory to move it."

"Ah."

Even though she was complaining, when I told her I would move her luggage, Asil went to check one more time without saying anything.

I don't usually use my inventory, but this time I decided to use it in large quantities.

I also want to get used to academy life and go there as easily as possible.

"Hey, what should I do?""

A man approached me hesitantly.

He was a middle-aged man with a somewhat naive personality.

This person was the guide who would lead us to the altar.

He was a man who was a hunter in one of the villages near the altar, and he was the one who discovered the cultist's altar while hunting and quickly reported it to the temple.

"Do you need your share of food or camping equipment?"

"Oh, no! "I have everything ready."

"Then you don't have to do anything. Ah. "I can take a few heavy items with me by putting them in my inventory. Would you like to put them in?"

"Thank you, but it's okay." Can a person who can't even carry his luggage by himself be called a hunter?"

"Hmm. Is it so? That's enough."

Later, when they took our belongings, we planned to take out our underwear as well and see the reaction, but it turned out to be a shame.

With that, the conversation ended, and after completing the final inspection, I left.

As always, the road to the destination was boring.

"Ugh, I'm bored. "Can't we go by carriage?"

"You know, is there a way for a carriage to travel in the forest?" You can't ride it unless you plan on taking it for a one-time use and leaving it near the forest."

"But it's boring."

"For something like that, it looks pretty fun."

The man who was the guide, the hunter, was walking in front, followed by me and Flora walking side by side behind him.

Asil was floating with the help of a sylph next to him.

Lying down, lying down, turning over. The sight of it floating while changing positions looked as fun as riding an amusement ride.

"The opposite, the opposite. How bored do you have to be to play like this?" This is all an expression of being bored."

"If you're that bored, why don't you lift us up too? If we all fly together, we will arrive faster."

"Really? " Wait a minute."

Perhaps it was true that he was bored, but Asil shook his head after chatting with Sylph about various things.

"I can't do it. The Sylph says it's okay for you, but she doesn't like that guy."

Haha... "

"No, sorry! It's not that I don't like him because he's just an old man; it's because he's not that close to us yet! " Don't be too discouraged."

The man's shoulders slumped when he heard that he disliked Asil, who only looked like a pretty girl on the outside (she seemed to be turning into a bitch on the inside, too).

Even if she doesn't have romantic feelings, she can't help but feel depressed when she hears that an attractive person of the opposite sex dislikes her.

Asil was embarrassed and changed the topic.

"But it's already been a few days since the altar was discovered, right? What happens if she notices that the cultists have caught her and changes the location of the altar? "Are we just going to waste it and end it?"

Asil's words were just to change the topic, but she also had a point.

Because the altar is not a building that cannot be physically moved. If something is discovered, the most reasonable method from a cultist's point of view is to move the altar itself.

But there is one problem with that method.

"Are you okay? Because they don't change the location of the altar."

It can be physically moved, but it is not moved.

"Why?"

"If you think about it normally, all you have to do is move the location of the altar, but are they just ordinary people? They're crazy people. These are the people who say, 'God wants this place,' and won't change the location of the altar until they die."

"Until the death? I don't understand...

"It's more of a problem if you can understand a crazy person. Just know that it is so."

We walked for a while chatting.

By the time the sun had set on the horizon and the sky had turned red, we had reached the originally planned camping location.

"Wow... "

Asil looked at the sky and let out an exclamation.

There was nothing on the side of the road we were walking on.

Even the nearest forest is dozens of minutes away on foot.

When you look at the sky, the golden sunset comes into full view without anything blocking your vision.

The side where the sun sets is bright red. The clouds here and there added to the atmosphere of the sunset.

When you look at a long shadow, time also stretches like a shadow, giving the illusion that this time will continue forever.

The side where the moon rises is a mysterious purple color. The sunlight that had not completely set combined with the darkness of the night sky to create a beautiful gradient of red, purple, and ultramarine blue.

It's hard to see right now, but after the sun sets a little more, the stars will start to shine.

Already on one side of the sky, shining dots were starting to come together and decorate the night sky.

Recently, it was mainly used as a portal, but road travel also had its own romance.

"Let's rest here for today. "I'll take out your camping gear, so come here."

"And..."

It seems like he is so captivated by the fantastic scenery unique to fantasy that he can't even hear me.

I can't help it. Because I completely understand that feeling.

I flopped down on a nearby rock.

It is common sense that you have to start preparing for camping before the sun sets so that you can finish preparing and go to bed by the time the sun sets, but for our party, who could prepare as many light sources as they wanted, it didn't really matter.

There is no need to sleep just because the sun has set.

As Asil stared blankly at her sky, Flora once again stood by her sky and gazed blankly at her sky.

It may be a familiar sky to Flora, but on the other hand, because it is familiar, it has a charm that is not normally noticed.

"I... "I don't have to prepare for camping, do I?"

"Are you okay? Even if it gets dark, there is no problem with getting ready. "For now, let's just enjoy it a little longer."

After giving that answer to the hunter man who was worried about time, I also raised my head.

To enjoy the same sky together.
