Absolutely Do Not Touch Eldmia Egga - Chapter 36

“Two there! If you don’t make sure, you can’t pay the commission fee!”

Before we could even take ten steps, I raised my middle finger in response to the leader’s cry from behind.

“I’ve read the contract thoroughly, so don’t be damned! Shut up if you don’t want to be hit with a penalty for violating the contract!”

“What, what?!”

Is the illiteracy rate in this world high? I’m not sure because I’ve never come across statistics, but I’m not very optimistic if I guess about the way the world is going or the overall picture.

Adventurers don’t stray too far from that. Asilie told me a long time ago that there are not many people who can’t read among those who are treated as mid-level adventurers, but there are more cases than you think that you can’t understand the meaning of technical terms, words, and even a little complicated sentence. It was a part that I was particularly worried about neglecting my studies, and I emphasized it by mentioning specific cases.

It is not uncommon for people to suffer damages or take on unnecessary tasks because they do not understand the contract properly. Just like the pathetic people running right there.

“You always get rough when you work as an adventurer?”

“Eldmia, the living intelligence of this era, is always just a customized human who knows how to play according to the level of the other person.”

“It sounds like bullshit.”

“People tend to turn their heads in the face of the sudden truth.”

Cheryl responded by kicking a boulder in front of me as she walked. And while we were playing so nonchalantly, the adventurers had already cut the distance by more than half by running ahead. Roughly, the first distance was about 300 meters? It’s purely an eye guess, so even if it’s not exact, it seems to be right.

When about twenty people cut the distance in half, arrows were suddenly shot from the forest.

“It’s a fucking archer!!”

“Run! If you don’t go all the way to the forest and fall down here, you’ll become a target for arrows!”

There are those who judge coldly, and there are those who collapse as soon as they get hit and lose their senses. However, the arrows for confirmation kills do not fly towards the fallen guys. Arrows only fly to those who try to run through the remaining distance and enter the forest.

“These fuck cubs play with us?!”

The expression of playing with it is a bit subtle. A few kids died in the first shot.

For some reason, they are training in the forest to intercept and lure people out of the forest to incapacitate and kill them. It was clear that he was verifying his skills in actual combat rather than finishing with simple practice or training.

I had arrogant thoughts, but I asked Cheryl first.

“You don’t know who the owner of this winery is?”

“Yeah. He’s not a very influential noble.”

“Then, whoever the guys in the forest are, can we kill them all and think about the rest?”

There was only one conclusion to understand the incomprehensible situation immediately visible. Practice killing against green-level adventurers. The failure of the subjugation of the adventurers several times was, in fact, an environment in which there was no choice but to fail. I came here thinking they were ordinary thieves, but if a soldier with regular training digs a trap and waits, there is usually no choice but to die.

It is an ordinary battle with no mana or aurora, but based on experience and system. Being a green-blue adventurer was originally just that good.

If you go to the upper level, Red, you can see wizards and aura users from time to time. And if there are such people, it is clear that they have not gathered up to the rank because they cannot do such nonsense.

“Leave no one alive.”

Having guessed that far, Cheryl instructed me with an aristocratic face.

“There is no reason to save those who dare to commit such killings in front of the capital of the kingdom and not even a dog that despises the royal family.”

It seems that even she, who belongs to the realm of genius, was not very different from me in the judgment she could make after seeing this situation. Sheryl didn’t wait for my answer and charged at her with her sword drawn and an aura. And, let alone a 15-year-old, he narrows the distance in an instant and reaches the forest at a speed that makes you doubt whether it is really a human running. Similarly, an arrow flew, but because of its unexpected speed, it did not pose any threat to Cheryl, who had already gone a long way.

Cheryl had already disappeared into the woods when the arrow missed its target and fell to the ground.

“Quaaaaaagh!”

At the same time, for the first time, screams were heard from the forest. I also drew my sword, praying in my heart that we would have corrected our mistake.

“As expected, it’s the behavioral power of Sogaju.”

If training is the purpose, there will be someone who trained it.

And the situation that the person who gave the training would not want the most is the situation in which the training becomes meaningless, and the most certain way to create that situation is the death of the guys in training no matter what anyone says.

So, with that as a goal, she puts magic power on her body.

Thanks to the magic management that developed dramatically after coming to the Ogatorf family to learn about Aura operation in earnest, the magic that used to feel like wearing thick armor in the past is now wrapped around like a swimming suit that fits snugly to the whole body. lose The five senses, which have been strengthened with magical power and have begun to sharpen, recognize and adapt to the changes in the body.

The moment my senses, which I had grown accustomed to through such long training, reached the proper level, I spurred off the ground and ran.

200 meters takes less than 10 seconds before the remaining distance is reduced in an instant. In an instant, the background changes to a forest, and ‘people’ who were not visible outside come into view. The face of a man holding a bow and about to draw the bowstring is tinged with astonishment.

“Oh, come…!”

breastplate. Greaves. Gauntlet and Helm. He had a short sword at his waist and no other bag. three like that. Except for the one holding the bow, the two accelerated once more, confirming that they were not even reacting properly.

“…use…!”

It is certainly. These were soldiers, not bandits.

As he finished his judgment, the sword he swung moved as if it were being sucked in and cut the man’s neck neatly. It wasn’t difficult to turn around and slash the heads of the remaining two in unison. The 7 years of training were by no means wasted.

Concerned about any possible attack, he bent down and looked at the situation for a while, but the soldier’s dying words were halfway mixed with the shouts of the adventurers coming from outside the forest and did not seem to reach others. In the meantime, after checking the surroundings dug like a trench and confirming that Cheryl was not left behind, I put my sword back in, grabbed the shortswords of the killed soldiers, and ran into the forest.

I couldn’t run through the forest like an open field with nothing yet, so my speed was much lower than before. In the meantime, I organized my thoughts and thought about their purpose again. If Asilie had seen it, she might have scolded her for distracting herself during the battle, but she’s a relaxed enough enemy.

However, no matter how you think about it, it was a hard reality to understand. Of course, it is true that the job of adventurer is, on average, a job that has neither human rights nor citizenship. The kingdom is not merciful enough to protect adventurers who wander aimlessly and reap occasional profits as citizens, unless they have a job that can pay fixed taxes or have such a rank. It is the job that shows most directly that there are no rights without obligations.

However, if no rights are given, there may be forces that unilaterally try to exploit the manpower of adventurers who can solve problems outside of the people cheaply. Of course, in that case, the number of adventurers would decrease or disappear, and all the quests the adventurers had been solving would overflow as problems in the kingdom.

That’s why the kingdom gives adventurers minimal treatment. So, if you cheat on the contents of the request or cause unfair damage to the adventurer, you will be punished by the kingdom law.

“Ha, there’s one more…!”

As soon as I saw the soldiers who were on high alert, I threw the two short swords I was holding. The number is also three. The guy who tried to fix his sword belatedly, horrified to see the magic of swords sprouting from the heads and chests of his colleagues who were doing thorough comradeship activities, let go of the sword and fell to the floor as soon as I was hit.

“Heuk!”

As soon as I kicked him in the stomach, turned him over, and stepped on his cervical spine with his heel, his body, which seemed to be wriggling at any moment, began to stiffen. Honestly, I thought he would try to get my feet off of me somehow, but he must have been a friend who was surprisingly quick to judge. It feels like I’ve chosen a winning lottery.

“Now, either die or live. Either way! One chance! What are you guys thinking of using adventurers like scarecrows for training?”

“It’s because of orders!”

“I like the quick answer, so I’ll give you one more chance. In the future, roll your head as much as you can and explain in one shot. If you procrastinate, I’ll just kill you and go find someone else. Whose order?”

“This is our employer! Baron Favaera! Owner of the wine estate!”

I really like how fast this guy is.
