”Alvin!”
”Oh! How’d it goes over there, Shinji?”
”No problem”
When Shinji returned to the village square, Alvin and the others were already there. The square was buzzing with activity before they went out to defend the village, but now most of the residents have gone back to their homes, and there are only a few beastmen, including the village chief in here.
”Are the monsters have been reported?”
The chief nodded at Alvin’s words.
”Yes... it was fortunate that the vigilantes were able to handle the situation, but the miners were not able to do anything about it...”
The captain of the vigilantes told the chief that if several members of the vigilantes responded to each monster and used walls and bows for support, there would be no problem in continuing to defend.
And after examining the shell that Alvin had brought back, the chief found that the hardness of the outer shell made it impossible to penetrate without the reinforcement of magic power, making it impossible for an amateur combatant to deal with. Because of that reason, he came to the painful conclusion that the miners in the mine were unlikely to survive.
”Now, the vigilantes will be able to handle the monster attack... Thank you, adventurers... If we had been taken by surprise, there must have been a great deal of damage to this village...”
”I was just doing what I could as an adventurer. So, I’m glad I could help”
Alvin smiled at the village chief, who bowed deeply, but the chief, with a pale face, left the square with the remaining beastmen, saying he had other things to do.
”It seems the miners didn’t escape to the village......”
Milis muttered to herself as she stared on the direction of the mines, feeling sorry for them. It is obvious that the loss of the men who are proud of their strength to work as miners is quite painful for the village.
As Shinji was having a thoughtful conversation with Durin, Alvin and the others were discussing the possibility that it would be better to stay in the village, and Shinji joined in.
”I think it’s better to go back to Este than stay here. Because I’m wondering how we’re going to deal with the mine. If we’re going to protect it, we need to know how long we have to”
”Hmm, I see. ...Sure enough.... But I’m still worried about this village...”
Certainly, they can’t stay on standby to protect them forever. Still, Alvin could not make up his mind when he thought of the monsters that might attack.
Then, it happened as Hiyuri showed up.
”Everyone from ! If you’re going back to Town, I’d like to come with you!”
Hiyuri, who had heard the talk about whether or not to return, shouted, “I can’t miss this chance”.
The reason Hiyuri wants to the Town because she received a letter from her father, the chief, asking for reinforcements from the Lord of the Town, so, Hiyuri needed to get to the Town as quickly as possible. Alvin, who heard the situation, decided going back to the Town.
”It’s decided! Let’s all go back!”
They responded to Alvin’s declaration in their own way.
Thus, Alvin and the others returned to with Hiyuri.
