Episode 540 To the Kingdom of Heron (6)
I am dumbfounded when I suddenly receive an invitation to dinner.
What’s more, even just a moment ago, the black righteous people almost took their lives.
I shook my head when I saw him coveting talented people without even properly treating his wounds.
Did you see that as a doctor of refusal?
An injured man stopped them.
“Stop it. This ideal will become a nuisance to the benefactor.”
The cool escort coughed at him.
“Hmm. I only asked once.”
Ray took a look at them without being noticed, then reached into his chest and pulled out one of the golden spears.
“Wash the wound with water and apply this. It will hurt a little, but the effect will be good.”
“Is this… medicine?”
“that’s right.”
I heard that only graduates of the Pharmacy class at the Medical Academy can manufacture medicine.
There are cheap medicines among them, but the escorts felt burdened because well-made medicines cost as much as a bag of rice.
“I will be grateful.”
Ray, who was holding on to Sylveria’s presence, feeling weak in the depths of the forest, felt that the time had come.
‘It took up too much time.’
Since the distance is a little far, if it is too late, Sylveria looks like a monster Bob.
He disappeared all of a sudden, as quickly and quietly as he had come.
The escorts who had lost sight of Ray opened their eyes at him and widened their eyes.
“…It must be that the ghost is crying out.”
“I haven’t even heard aloud yet…”
The escort, who was applying the medicine on the other side of the man’s crying, shook his head.
“If we are meant to be, we will meet again. Don’t be too foolish.”
Thinking about rice cakes that you can’t eat even if you want them will only make you feel sick.
The men put their regrets behind and looked at the blood-stained forest.
Now that they know that there are people targeting them, they need to move quickly.

While strolling through the forest, Silveria sat down on a rock and rested for a while.
“Oh my brother, too. I don’t know why they brought someone like that.”
Aside from being a baron, isn’t he a person who lacks basic manners in the first place!
What kind of house etiquette is it to lie down in a carriage in the presence of a lady!
Sylveria, quite shocked by the daytime situation, let out a sigh.
It is true that I was looking forward to the fact that I would leave the territory and travel for the first time in ten years.
I dreamed of stopping by a village on the way to get some snacks and having a good time at a tavern listening to stories of adventurers.
Take a look now.
When I stopped by the village, I met a bandit and was ignored by the baron’s insincere guy, telling me not to overdo it and go back.
It was a thrilling trip at first, but now it’s just tiring.
“I’d rather go back to the manor sooner rather than later.”
It seemed that it would be better in many ways to practice swordsmanship at a time like this.
While she sits on a rock and looks up at the night sky.
The monsters who noticed Sylveria’s presence gathered one by one.
“Kigi-geek.”
“Keeeh.”
Silveria froze as she heard the small voices of the goblins beneath the subtle stillness.
I knew there was a monster, but when I heard a lively sound from over the bush, I felt intimidated.
‘What is it? Wake. They’re just goblins.’
A little bit of shame bloomed at the fact that he had been frightened by them even for a moment.
Swoop-
When he pulled out the sword attached to his waist and took a posture, he showed the appearance of a decent prosecutor.
As Sylveria prepared for battle, the goblins appeared from the thicket as if they thought they had already been caught.
one.
two.
Sylveria’s face became pale at the gradually increasing number.
Eventually, twenty goblins, each with a weapon in their hand, glared at her. The
tip
of the sword began to tremble slightly.
‘Geez calm down. They’re just goblins.’
I consoled myself with the same words, but this was my first time fighting a monster.
My whole body tensed at the sound of their breathing, and my hamstrings tingled at the sound of their low cries.
In addition, since this was almost the first time I had killed a life, there was also a reluctance to cut a life.
Did he notice that she was hesitating?
“Keeeeek!”
“Kiyi!”
The goblins rushed at her all at once.
“Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!”
Even as he screamed, the sword moved reflexively and slashed the goblin’s throat with one stroke.
When the goblin’s throat was caught in the neatly thrust sword, a fountain of blood spewed out in an instant.
Fish Fish-!
Sylveria was drenched in goblin blood from head to toe.
bloody smell.
The smell of the beast.
She eventually fell into a panic at the sight of the goblins attacking her again without fear.
“Ah… ah…”
My hands trembled.
Killed what was still alive.
It was unpleasant to think that the liveliness of the sword cutting through the skin still remained on the fingertips.
A goblin holding a bat attacked Sylveria.
She came to her senses belatedly and narrowly blocked the bat.
He tried to step back, but he was already besieged by goblins, so even that was difficult.
“Who!”
Before I could ask for help, the goblins started attacking again.
The attacks were neither heavy nor sharp, but the thought that she could die if she got hit wrong made her lose her sense.
Because of this, I couldn’t maintain my usual movements.
In addition, because she was very reluctant to cut goblins, the goblins easily received her attacks.
percussion-!
Kaaaang-!
I don’t know if it’s one.
Silveria could not come to her senses due to the attack from various places.
This merciless attack was something he had never felt before.
From the moment I felt that the opponent was seriously attacking me to kill me, my body did not move as I thought.
“Keew!”
Let the goblins in the lead howl.
Numerous goblins standing behind us rushed from all sides.
if not kill
He knew instinctively that if he couldn’t kill him, he would die.
Silveria quickly made fun of her sword.
Kaaaang-!
Caan-!
He slashed the hatchet and carved a sword mark on the chest of the goblin that was rushing straight into it.
Chow ah-!
“Queueek!”
Because of the deep wound, she was covered in goblin blood again.
From then on, Sylveria’s reason went out half way.
When the goblin comes, he swings his sword sensibly.
There was no time to look around.
Thinking that he might die in a forest where he didn’t even know his name, he swung his sword just to live.
When she finally came to her senses, it was around the time that more than half of the goblins out of the twenty were dead and the rest of the goblins were on the run.
“Ha ha ha…”
I laughed out loud at the thought of barely surviving.
She looked down at the hand holding the sword.
The handle of the sword, which was messed up with blood, and a slightly torn grip are visible.
He raised mana to calm himself down, but judging from the insignificant response, it seems that he has run out.
If the battle had only lasted a little longer, it would have been a disaster.
Plump-
Tears flowed down Silveria’s cheeks as she slumped in her seat.
“I bought it…”
It was at least a goblin.
When you actually face a monster that you normally ignore so much.
She had to admit that she had been conceited all along.
The sword, which moved so freely during training, did not follow it as it would when dealing with goblins.
It almost killed her.
Suddenly, the last words he said to the baron’s son flashed through his mind.
‘…I didn’t neglect my sword enough to be ignored by you.’
It was arrogant.
He spoke and acted as if he looked down on others because he said he had no power.
Besides, he who said that was ‘only’ struggling against the goblins and fighting for life.
Having nothing to say, she herself was all the same.
* * *
Ray perched on top of a tree and watched Sylveria.
Caan-!
Kaaaang-!
At first, it was seen that the movement, which was unstable, gradually began to stabilize as the fight continued.
“He was talented enough to be conceited.”
He struggled against the goblins because he had no experience in combat, but if he sharpened his sword and accumulated experience, he would be reborn as a worthy swordsman.
one animal.
two.
As the number of dying goblins increased, her sword flew more accurately toward the monster’s vitals.
It is probably because the original skills are being displayed as much as the situation is getting used to.
It seems that it is the first time killing a life, but it is not enough to quickly adapt to the situation and is growing up, so it is praiseworthy enough.
Eventually, when Sylveria defeated 20 goblins.
Ray slowly descended from the tree.
Mana was depleted, and muscles were twisted here and there due to excessive movement of the body.
Besides, since the battle was so fierce, other monsters might come after hearing the commotion.
“Even if you leave it alone, it will come back on its own.”
After looking at her for a moment, Ray moved in the direction of the wagon.
* * *
Sylveria made up her mind to go back as Ray expected.
There was nothing better than staying here.
Also, if monsters came rushing in, it would be difficult to avoid embarrassment this time.
Silveria took a few steps toward the bush, but suddenly stopped and looked around with a surprised face.
“This is what the heck…”
There were countless bodies of monsters scattered randomly.
It was all the more surprising because none of them had visible trauma.
Could it be that there were so many monsters besides goblins around him?
When I thought I almost had to deal with them all, my saliva flowed.
who the hell
Who would have stopped the monsters heading towards them?
escort?
Brother?
Thinking of them, Sylveria shook her head.
If they did, there was no way he wouldn’t have noticed the turmoil in the process.
Next came the face of the handsome baron son, but it was a no-brainer.
‘It can’t be.’
Effortlessly laughing, she followed the path out of the woods.
