"Where have you been these past few days, Egbert? Did your trip with Hamizan result in a monster attack?" The man with a large stature and carrying a sword and shield on his back questioned the person in front of him. "It's not really the monsters that are the problem, Isaac. It's just that Hamizan did something unnecessary and made us suffer a considerable loss." The man named Egbert answered the question of the man with the shield named Isaac with a slightly grim face. "What happened?" Isaac asked again because Egbert did not give a definite answer. "The merchant train we were escorting was attacked by several swarms of orc monsters." Egbert stopped what he was saying for a moment and downed the beer in his hand. "They weren't a problem for the five of us. It's just that Hamizan insisted on chasing after the escaping orcs. That was the beginning of the disaster for us.""Hamizan's nature to hunt monsters is sometimes troublesome. Then what happened?" Isaac was very interested in
Fenrir ate the grilled meat in front of him as he continued to eavesdrop on the conversation between the two adventurers. Fenrir got some information that he found useful, while Loki continued to chew on the pork he had ordered. Loki looked like someone who hadn't eaten in a long time, until the two young people at the table next to them talked about Loki's behavior. Fenrir wanted to confirm the truth of the two people's words. Fenrir wanted to ask them directly. "Hurry up and finish your food Loki, I want to leave soon." Fenrir spoke to Loki in a half-whisper. Fenrir had finished the food he ordered, while Loki was still chewing the food. Loki's portion was larger because he ordered some more roasted meat. That made the people around them a little surprised. People in the tavern were used to seeing adventurers with big appetites because of their hard work, but Loki looked different from the usual adventurers. The amount of food he ordered could be used for five people. What a big
Isaac and Egbert were seen leaving the shop with happy faces. Isaac waved his hand as a sign of farewell. Fenrir and Loki, who were still in the tavern, chose to sit for a while before continuing their journey. Fenrir took out a few gold coins to pay for the food he bought and also paid for Isaac and Egbert's food. Fenrir considered it a greeting of friendship. Fenrir called for a waiter. Loki, who saw Fenrir taking out gold coins again, felt that it was something excessive. Loki felt that the coin would have been much better used to buy a few more pieces of grilled meat. "How much is the total of all this food?"Fenrir asked the waiter while holding the gold coin. The waiter calculated the total payment that Fenrir had to make. one gold and three silver coins Fenrir gave to the waiter. Then Fenrir gave one silver coin to the waiter in return. "Thank you, sir." The waiter gave Fenrir a sweet smile. The waiter returned to his seat with a cheerful face. She was seen discussing somet
The man Loki was choking was one of the four people who had been looking at Fenrir and Loki when they entered the guild. The man still did not speak. Either because he did not want to answer or because it was difficult to speak because his neck was being strangled by Loki. The three people who were in a separate room earlier left their places. They wanted to immediately move towards Loki to help their friend. Loki, who saw this, immediately threw the bottle he caught earlier towards the three people. The bottle flew quickly towards the three people. The two people in front managed to avoid the floating bottle. But unfortunately the third person did not have time to avoid and was hit by the bottle right on the head. "Praannkkk..."The bottle broke as it collided directly with the adventurer's head. The adventurer immediately fell backwards. He held his head which immediately felt dizzy. "Stop right there, or I'll make sure it's not just a bottle that will fly into your head."Loki
"Huh?"Asher was very surprised by the rank that Fenrir had. Asher couldn't believe what Fenrir had just said. Asher thought Fenrir was at least at rank C or higher. Asher thought hard to make a decision whether he would allow Fenrir or not. Because the mission was too dangerous for a rank D adventurer. "Are you sure you want to do this mission?"Asher once again asked Fenrir's decision. "Yes, I'm very sure. I want to advance to C rank adventurer soon." Fenrir said that with confidence. Asher now understood Fenrir's goal. Fenrir's eyes showed the seriousness of his words to become a rank C adventurer. If Fenrir wanted to level up quickly, this mission was a good new leap. But rank D fighting those two ogres sounded too much. Asher did feel that there was something else Fenrir had. Asher sensed that Fenrir had powers that Asher himself could not explain. But his instincts that had been honed over the years as an adventurer told him that Fenrir would be able to complete this missio
An old farmer was seen crossing the path that led to the village. The straw hat and shabby clothes he wore showed the hard work the farmer had done. A knitted basket he carried on his back was filled with some of the vegetables Fenrir used to find in the fields where he used to work. "Excuse me sir, is this really Lockwood village?"Fenrir approached the old farmer. Fenrir bent his body slightly so that his height was at the same level as the man. Fenrir didn't want the old farmer to look up too much because it would make the burden on his back feel heavier. Fenrir understood that because he had also worked in the fields. The farmer was wiser than Fenrir expected. He put down the basket he was carrying before answering Fenrir's question. "Right young man, this is the Lockwood village. How can I help you?"The old farmer looked at Fenrir carefully. It was rare for someone from the city to go to a rural village like this. To the old farmer, Fenrir's presence was like someone who was
Loki entered the forest and ran after the smell of the monster he had smelled earlier. Loki stopped several times to sniff the ground for traces of the smell. Loki knew the smell of the monster he was chasing, because this smell was often hunted by Loki. Loki just found out that in the human world there are also monsters like this. The monster that Loki was hunting was a redboar. A large pig monster that is about one and a half meters tall and about two meters long. Loki can tell the exact shape and size of the monster from the traces the creature leaves behind. From the urine to the feces that the monster excreted, Loki was able to provide definitive information. Loki was sure this was an adult redboar. Redboars are still similar to deer pigs that are common in the countryside, but these creatures are categorized as monsters due to their highly aggressive nature and large size. Unlike deer pigs, redboars are more likely to directly attack rather than dodge. Its high running speed a
Fenrir failed to meet with the village chief because he was not at home. Fenrir and old man Penn only met one of the family servants who was there. The servant said that the village chief had left the house in the morning and had not returned. The servant also did not know exactly where the village chief had gone. "Maybe he's out in the fields."Old man Penn guessed the village chief's whereabouts. "In recent times, the village chief has often been in the fields to monitor the harvest. He also usually visits his wife's burial place not far from the fields. We'd better come back later tonight."Old man Penn told the servant to tell the village chief that he had visited. Old man Penn also told the village chief to tell him that adventurers had come to this village. After saying all that, they said goodbye and left the chief's house. "You'd better come to my house, Fenrir. Although my house is not as big and nice as the chief's, it won't be a problem to add one or two residents.""Ve
