─ ─ Before leaving King's Landing, I went to the blacksmith's grandfather.

Given that the Goblin nest is a cave, there is a limit to the space that can be moved.

In narrow caves, spears with lengths (reach) are poorly manipulated. I needed to buy a weapon at my grandfather that would be effective against the Grievous.

Talk to your grandfather about the situation and have him prepare his weapon in a hurry. My opponent looked as suspicious as a goblin, but he seemed to understand the seriousness of my sword.

What we have here is a thick, boneless, large-bodied mushroom. It's a practical piece that eliminates any extra things that I like. This way, you won't get a little bumpy when you hit the wall of the cave.

"Boy, take this too."

My grandfather offered me something to leave the store at once. A dagger in a sheath.

"Who is this guy?

"It's like a defense. The boy wants to stick his neck in trouble. With me, it's hard for a good customer to die. I didn't bring you a spare weapon."

"Isn't this a hobby?

"Uuuuuuuu. Just shut up and take it."

"Yes, yes."

As I was told, I received a dagger. Looking closely, the decorations on the pattern and sheath are quite elaborate. When I pulled a little sword out of my sheath to try it, I found it to be quite a good product. Definitely superior to the large potatoes I received earlier.

"It seems very expensive to use as a gift (service) for a customer."

"Just go. You're in a hurry, right?

With my arms folded and my nose snorted, my grandfather urged me to go to the exit of the shop.

"Boy."

"Now what?

My grandfather stopped me, and when I looked back, I was ejected by an eye that seemed to be even accompanied by intimidation.

"I don't mind folding that dagger or spilling the blade... but never lose it. If it's gone, I won't understand."

"Oh, wow. Okay."

Somehow I was pushed by my serious grandfather, and I nodded and left the shop.

─ ─ And the day after receiving the request.

We hurriedly finished our preparations and left with the sunrise for the village we asked for. It was a good distance on foot, but I didn't have much time, so I borrowed a carriage from each of you. Judging from the request fee, the carriage rental cost will be completely in deficit, but this time it is risking human life. Fortunately, my nostalgia was not so painful because I usually saved my tips and my client's rewards.

"─ ─ So you're coming after all?

"If you come here and send me back, you'll be in trouble."

Time has passed since we left King's Landing. The days have already risen. On the wagon carriage, I asked the woman in front ─ ─ Cunei. The outfit is a white coat that stands for a doctor. Inside, however, it is not only the usual fancy look that is worn, but also the protective equipment that is worn to protect the emergency.

Yesterday, when she told Cunai that she was leaving King's Landing in a hurry, she said she would follow her.

"If Goblin is attacking the village, we need someone to treat the wounded villagers. Didn't I?"

"No, it might be."

Cunei may be a healer, but the fight is amateur. If a swarm of Goblins were attacking the village, it would likely be a riot. Then you can't afford to protect Cunei.

"Oh, maybe Yukina thinks I'm a weak maiden."

Cunei smiled and turned to the lizard.

"Mikage. Throw the apple on that table into the air."

…… Is this it?

Mikage throws an apple. Then Cunei's hand flashed quickly, and in the next moment the apple was ejected through the center by the 'throwing knife' released from her hand and sewn to the wall.

Me and Mikage are stunned together. Kenai takes a bunch of knives from somewhere and holds them in his hand like a fan, laughing vigorously whenever he wants.

"Prostitutes aren't sweet enough to be picked up by just sex and a pipe. Even if it looks like this, I know how to defend myself. It shouldn't be a foothold."

There was the wonder of a prostitute who reigned at the top of the kingdom.

Demonstrating unexpected strength, I allowed Cunei to accompany me on the condition that I would never come forward. Mikage also found it very comfortable to have healers with him.

And ─ ─ that was the right decision.

"Hey, there's smoke coming up from the village!!

To the scream of the lord, I put my face from the carrier to the lord's seat. Looking at the destination of the carriage with a gaze, smoke stood up, as the Emperor had said. And it's not just one, it's more than one.

"─ ─ Yukina-sama! I smell blood on the wind!

I stung my teeth at the smelly words of the mica. It seems to have attracted the worst possible scenario.

How far is it from here to the village?

"Hih, not enough on people's feet."

"Okay. Stop right here!

When we stop the carriage, we hurry to unpack.

"Mikage! You go first. The fastest of these. But don't push it."

Got it!

When the lizard was in a hurry, he ran away at my command. [M]

Yukina, we're ready.

Cunei is lowering a bag full of medical equipment from her shoulder. The exposed thighs, which are usually colourful, are wrapped around belts and are equipped with a number of throwing knives.

I'll tell you one last thing.

"Go back to King's Landing and tell the Mercenaries. The village was attacked by a bunch of evil beasts."

"Okay, okay. But what about you?

"We're doing our job!

When we nodded with Cunei, we all ran away.
