Absolutely Do Not Touch Eldmia Egga - Chapter 12
The most dramatic change in Ogwen over the past three years was, without a doubt, the walls.
The wooden fence disappeared and a stone wall appeared, but it gradually became stronger and a gateway was created. Unless you’re an idiot, you can see how the kingdom of Itthiel is looking at Ogwen.
Even though there had not been a single attack near Ogwen since the raid six years ago, he had no intention of neglecting it. Ogwen increasingly functioned as a fortified city.
“Stop. I will verify your identity.”
“Wow, that’s really too much. Do you have to stand up like this every time you see me?”
“Crunchy. This is a bad attitude to cooperate. My brother said he’d stand up to see his brother’s face, huh?”
He didn’t bother to pull out his pass and show it to Alec, the gate guard who smiled and stroked his horse. Because it was a joke anyway. But Alec, who really stopped me while petting the horse, cleared his throat for no reason.
“Hmm. Hey, introduce me to a woman if you’re bothered.”
“It’s ridiculous. My brother, who has lived in the village for 20 years, asked Eldmia, a boy in the valley, to introduce a girl?”
“Ah, why is that. Aunt Alicia’s staying…”
“One or two, that’s it?”
The war continued, and unlike three years ago, there were more orphans in the city than runaway teenagers. I don’t know what kind of policy they are implementing, but there are quite a lot of refugees in Ogwen, and I tried hard, but I couldn’t handle it alone. I gave a chance to the kids who came and went, but there were about 20 kids left.
Aunt Alicia’s inn now played a role more like a nursery school for such children. With the help of the surroundings, the inn, which originally had a capacity of 7 people, was expanded to accommodate up to 25 people. And our swearing lady seemed much more enthusiastic and happy, as if proving her personality. I feel it every time, but there really is no saint. Is this a saint, or is there anything special about a saint?
In any case, it was clear that this human being saying this to me was, in the end, one of the six girls mixed in with the twenty.
“Mistress. That brunette lady! Little plump!”
“Ah. Remiri?”
Without realizing it, I burst out laughing.
“I have to do my best on my own. Why are you asking me? Go.”
“Ai-san, really. Hey! Hey!! Oh really!”
Remiri, a girl with braided hair, is popular in the nearby shopping district thanks to her outstanding straight hair and sad look. She worked so much that she could be called a signboard girl at the now-large clothing store in Tex, so she must have made Alec Miller, the eldest son of the Tex Miller family, beat his heart.
But why the hell am I helping someone else’s relationship? I have no intention of feeding someone who doesn’t even notice why Remy Lee is working at Tex’s clothing store for a better job.
I’ve been feeding her since morning. sitpal.
“Brother! What are you doing today!”
“No, why am I your brother?
A tall young man who would be about the same height as me if he got off his horse stopped carrying goods in front of Milena’s grocery store and started talking to me. The bronzed-skinned, auburn-haired guy who introduced himself as Jin when we first met had joined Ogwen about a year ago. It is said that he is not from the kingdom, but from a foreign country called Ladan across the sea.
I couldn’t imagine how he came to Ogwen, which is not even a port city at such a young age. Merchants who felt intimidated were struggling with problems such as avoiding them.
After being trampled on by Eldmia Ega, a man who doesn’t judge people by their appearance, and eagerly looking for work, I was so damned.
“What’s the point of age! You know more than me, you’re grown-up and even prepared a place for me! You’re my older brother!”
“I’ll turn, really.”
The problem is fucking glaring. I am still full of energy and work a lot, so my income is extraordinary, so I eat well, but I stand out in many ways because I have a big voice. If only the villagers went there, Ogwen now boasts a floating population of half villagers and half strangers. It means that there are many people even in the early morning. I’m of a similar physique, so it won’t look weird to others… but it’s just embarrassing.
In the end, it was judged that explanation was faster than persuasion.
“I’m going to go to the guild to see if the kids are working properly.”
“Hmm? You mean the adventurer’s guild? Why is it there?”
“No, why? How many times have I told you? In two years, will I become an adventurer and go out into the world?”
“Yeah?! Wasn’t that a joke?!”
“Why are you taking that as a joke?”
Rather, when I asked back because I was dumbfounded, Jin looked at me with a dumbfounded expression as if he was even more dumbfounded.
“No, what’s wrong with my older brother, living such an epoch? Aren’t you a knight?”
daily life. It wasn’t exactly wrong. It’s not a job full of adventure and romance.
I don’t know what Jin’s past was like, but he recognized that I trained quite a bit, and as soon as he saw me, he asked me if I was a trainee, and he embarrassed me. Perhaps he believed that I was training to become a knight. Still, he speaks in a quiet voice unlike before.
“I have to cut the head of the commander of the Demon King’s Army who destroyed our village.”
“So, shouldn’t we be aiming for knights?”
“When will I become a knight, at what time and in what battlefield I will meet him.”
The war with the demon king’s army had reached its sixth year, but anything that could be called an achievement was sluggish.
Of course, a proclamation would have been issued if an incident that would have been widely publicized and boosted morale had occurred, but the story of the beheading of the raider of a monumental village on the outskirts of Ogwen had not been heard. Finding the hero was the last good news.
The unknown enemy is still alive after all.
“It’s like a big brother to have a different idea. If you’re a commander, you’re leading an army, so it’s an idea that just about anyone can’t do. How could you think of such a thing?”
“Isn’t it much wiser to catch the guy who leads the army by doing something like an assassin than to join the army and catch him?”
“It’s because I felt that way that I’m like a big brother.”
I don’t know what the hell he’s looking at, but this guy doesn’t listen to these words I spit out. I really think you will try and succeed. Because of that kind of reaction, he is an uncomfortable guy.
“Anyway, I’m going. Good job.”
“Yes! If you stay until lunch, let’s have a meal together!”
“Yes. Look.”
I waved my hand moderately and got on the horse again and headed towards Jans’ forge. It was not difficult to spot Jans’ shiny hair, leisurely smoking a pipe while his apprentices lit the fire in the blacksmith’s furnace.
“I came with Asilier’s permission!”
“Already? Is Asilie-san too cute? Are you raising her?”
It was the most significant event of today’s visit. After several fights with Asilie, she finally allowed me to carry the real sword.
‘Anyway, he doesn’t use a sword… and he’s not someone who can’t kill people.’
Although it was closer to the verification of personality than the certification of ability.
“My sincerity just shone through.”
I passed the long sword that was on my back to the scabbard.
“There’s no reason to wear it on your back anymore! On me! Belt!”
“Huh. I thought you were just pretending, but you were thinking correctly?”
“What is it? Mister, have you been looking at me like that for years?”
“Crunchy. To be honest, I did. But I’m relieved because he’s a well-thought-out guy. It’ll take about an hour, so come play.”
Jans brushed off his pipe and went straight into the smithy. When I arrived at Alisha’s inn leisurely, calming down my pounding heart, I saw a busy scene in front of me from the morning.
From the priests in the uniforms of the Holy Cross to all sorts of vagabonds and now completely stripped-down vagabonds, everyone was distracted enough to wonder if this was really early in the morning.
I heard that they regularly receive supplies from the Holy Cross, but it was the first time I actually saw them, so I was quite embarrassed, but I don’t think it was just that.
“Sewer cleaners gather here. Receive the bread distributed by the priests!”
“The lunchboxes for the boys hired to repair the walls are ready!”
“The couriers come into the inn. Rest inside because there is still time!”
Recently, I didn’t have to come early in the morning, and I came whenever I thought about it, but Alicia’s inn had become a manpower office for street children before I knew it.
no real? The ability to do this was hidden among the children?
