27 26 Stories Heading to Latom Village

Looks like the crusade ended in two days.

I heard it took a short time because of the large number of adventurers.

After all, a good number of snakes seemed to have occurred.

I saw a crusaded snake when I left the village, but there were quite a few.

... Was it actually dangerous in the woods?

We need to be more vigilant.

Purchase dried meat and leave the village.

If the crusade had been completed, the village road would have been somewhat safer.

From today we head to the next village of Latom.

Somehow, it was often surprising in the village of Lato.

You know, what I tame about meeting Sola, what Sola eats, how much...

You're surprised at the amount of snakes.

Oh, but there were plenty of delights.

Sora has joined us.

Pulls in my arms and sees Sora shaking.

My pace, but it's still cute.

If you say happy, the words of the butcher and pharmacist shopkeeper.

That couldn't keep my cheeks from loosening.

Happy! Happy!

Right now, even if I remember, I get nasty.

Though I have to calm down because I need calm for my journey.

Take one deep breath at a time to calm your mind.

All right, let's go to Latom!

……

Day 6 of travelling from Lato.

I almost ran into the demon, but it's roughly a smooth journey.

But I got anxious about Sola's food... five more to go.

Wouldn't it be time to get to Latom in the next village?

……

I don't know, it smells a little burnt.

Is something on fire?

Stop and check around.

Sora, who is in her arms, is also pulling harder than usual.

I can't feel any signs of demons or people, but sometimes I miss them when the signs are as thin as adventurers.

Walk around vigilantly and checking.

Should I stay off the village road?

Straying down the village road, I saw a place in the distance where the smoke was rising.

... My body gets nervous and stiff for the first time.

Getting a little closer... I found out that the thing that was raising the smoke was like a box.

And someone is falling in that shadow.

As I approach him quickly with vigilance, I look around.

I don't feel any sign that someone is lurking.

He glanced at the fallen man and pressed his mouth slightly.

Anyone who had fallen is already dead.

I see traces of my body being determined by something.

And the contested footprints remain around.

I could see the possibility that there were more than one person from the footprint.

Put Sora in the bag, who was in her arms, because of a possible bandit.

Sola in Rare Slime could be targeted.

It's bad for the dead, but I can't do anything about it.

Keep it that way and hurry off with caution around.

but I saw a carriage a little further.

Stop, take a deep breath and calm down.

I still don't feel any sign of anyone.

Approaching the carriage there were several bodies, all severely damaged.

A little off the village road, a horse is down, but you can see it's dead.

Apparently, he was attacked by demons, not bandits.

Bandits never kill horses, and scars are not swords.

There may be fierce demons around here.

Damage to the deceased is too harsh.

It's not the first time I've seen a dead person attacked by demons, but it was a bit of a shock.

You should leave here soon.

Leave the carriage early.

Slightly, he stops when he realizes he's running.

Running disrupts attention.

You may miss the sign of the demon.

After several deep breaths, I was finally able to calm down.

"Huh... surprised"

I want to sit down, but not here.

I walked early enough to the village of Latom, carefully exploring the signs around me, and I heard something a little.

When you clarity your ears to the sound nervously, it's the voice of a person.

Adventurer? Traveler? Merchant?

Stay alert around you and get closer to the sound.

"Ah, the village of Latom."

A large number of people's voices informed me that they had arrived in the village.

Power falls out of your body.

In the meantime, I need to let you know that someone died at the Latom Village office.
