Absolutely Do Not Touch Eldmia Egga - Chapter 55

It had been about an hour and a half since the night had fallen and nothing could be seen. The shift shifts carried torches.

“Perimeter shifts are likely two-hour intervals.”

“The inside looks brighter than it looks, given that the guys inside aren’t looking for a way to light it up.”

At first glance, the entrance looks like pitch-black darkness itself, but in reality it seems to be completely different. Anyway, I decided to cut off the start of full-scale reconnaissance, and Gaendal fell asleep once again. As long as you lie down, you can fall asleep as much as you like, and within 10 minutes, you started to breathe evenly.

4 hours of endurance without doing anything can be quite painful, but in a world where there are many things you can do just by being able to handle magic, there was no problem.

Mana management is also practice after all. Even if it doesn’t have the traces of a pioneer like Mana and Auror, in the end, it gets a little better with every effort every day. And in this world, the results of hard work stand out relatively quickly than in the previous life.

Although I like achievements so fast that sometimes I can’t get rid of the feeling that they are contrived, it’s not always pleasant.

It means that the world is chaotic and there are many strong people unless I am the only one who is achieving such an achievement. When there is a brief gap, it feels like the OCD is pushing up again.

In any case, four hours would pass in an instant if the thoughts deepened while thinking about mana management. So I spent the night alternating with Gaendal.

Even as the night deepened and the dawn dawned, in the end they just stood guard without any activity. The two-hour shift intervals were correct, but other than that, there was little gain. In a situation where only casual chatter could be heard intermittently, morning finally dawned.

“Now I’m too sleepy. I can’t even sleep.”

Gaendal, who stretched quietly with a dejected smile, chewed on the beef jerky that Gaendal gave us, and watched the last night shift shift. Their voices, which were talking quietly, got a little louder, probably because their guards were a little bit off.

“Finally the night watch is over. Ha ha, when am I going to the bar?”

“You said that after leaving last week. I want to go too.”

“Obviously, it’s good to change your mood, but sometimes it’s a problem because when you wake up, you become an idiot waiting for the day you go to a bar.”

“Hahaha. That’s right.”

A relationship that makes jokes with each other and doesn’t seem bad. That’s the average relationship they’ve seen so far. It is said that subjects who are not soldiers have their own purpose, but it is annoying and at the same time very unexpected that the guys who have been separated and united in this situation are building and connecting to such a degree.

It was a time when I listened to the story, hoping that the sense of duty would be a little less detached.

“By the way, did you hear? The Baron is dead.”

“The baron is a mercenary who is a butcher at the bottom of the bottom.”

Unexpected stories came out of their mouths!

Except for one guy who frowned as if he was going to spit at any moment, the rest of the three started talking earnestly about the subject.

“He died anyway, nobleman. But he was a business colleague, so let’s not do that too much.”

“Anyway, wasn’t it going pretty well? I remember there were even quite a few soldiers, but suddenly like this?”

“They say they were massacred. I heard that not only the private soldiers under the baron’s command, but also the hired mercenaries were scattered in half.”

Unless there were two or more fuckers like Favaera around the capital, that’s definitely his story.

So fast anyway? I think it’s a bit serious that the incident, which is only today on the 4th day, has already reached them.

“Really? The baron is also a baron, but the skills of people like the butcher Ragiel and the snow hunter Jezzle are not to be overlooked? Has the tail been caught?”

“Intentionally spreading rumors, yes, Baera’s mercenary corps’ skills were real, but how could that…”

There were guys who spread enough to be nicknamed? weird. The baron was an idiot, and I remember that the only one who was useful was the one who put on a sword show with me. Well, there were a couple more guys who were a bit more dressed up, but they might be them.

No, more than that, those bastards are really good at it? I’m not kidding, if I had just brought in three apprentice knights from the Ogatorv family, I’d have killed half of them in the forest. Is the gap that big?

“It looks like the user was in the middle of the aura. That’s two by one.”

“Fuck.”

“Didn’t you deliberately only deal with green and blue ranks to avoid those people? Even if you’re not lucky, you should be as good as you can…” The

reactions of the deplorable guys convinced me. After all, the difference between having and not having an aura is huge. However, their remarks that even the cheong-gyeong were dismissed as having no users were enough to make me wonder.

“Huh? If you’re at the rank level, aren’t there some Aura users?”

“…You’re strange, but your common sense is twisted. They say we’re unique. Usually, you start to see it when you reach the rank.”

ah. So, when you introduced Gaendal, did you talk about your skills by talking about self-sufficiency, which is one step higher, rather than talking about the rank right above you? I thought it was normal because I also use Cheryl.

The measure of the strength of another world doesn’t really reach me, so I’m always confused. It was a bigger party than we thought. My chest really gets bigger.

“Mr. Rudna’s plan has been disrupted. I’m sorry.”

“How do the demons react? Do you know?”

“It’s the demons who told me this. They didn’t really care.”

“Isn’t it catchable by the tail? Did you cheat on something?”

“They said the baron just killed him before he could blow anything. Since he only made contact with the baron, he seems to think there’s nothing to get his tail caught on.”

There’s no such thing as real life spectacle. It’s surprising that miscellaneous things I didn’t care about dying or not were involved in something bigger than I thought, and I almost passed by without knowing it, but it’s surprising that the adventurer’s guild was already catching and tracking other signs, and it’s even more surprising that it’s connected to what I missed.

“Who is deliberately rolling me…?”

“Hmm? What did you say?”

“No. I’m just talking to myself.”

Come to think of it, it’s because they’re related to demons, so if it’s good for me, it’s good, nothing bad. If it’s a roll like this, it’s enough to see it.

“It’s fortunate. The bed was almost disturbed.”

“Anyway, it’s like that, so just be aware of it.”

“Let’s do that. Let’s do our best.”

After a long wait, the shift of the guys who gave a big harvest ended like that. After confirming that the people who had been replaced were talking nonsense again, I explained the value of the story I just heard to Gaendal, who had a very sad expression on his face. It was only natural that Gaendal’s demeanor changed drastically.

“I suspect that the information was delivered in such a short time. Were you spying on a human named Favaera?”

“It took 4 days to do that… Judging from what they said, it must have been 3 days since I must have heard about it yesterday. ”

It was a nuance as if he was literally telling a story he had heard while standing on duty. The attitude of others who listened to him was normal to say it was an exaggerated speech habit.

“More than that, you definitely said ‘the demons’. As you said, there seems to be a separate staff for management.”

“That’s right. As expected, this request is lucky.”

It goes without saying that it is easier to deal with less strong people than to deal with one strong one. Both Gaendal and I laughed at that part.

“But it’s also true that one worrying thing has increased. Even if they can’t do it, they might have a magic tool that can quickly receive information.”

“At least…?”

“It’s normal to move through space. In the worst case… it must have been a gate.”

The worst is really the worst. Of course, if you can destroy the gate, it would be a huge benefit, but if troops poured out of it, it would be a big deal.

“I think it can be said that it is a big harvest just by finding out this far. Would you like to go back?”

“No. Let’s wait a little longer. We’ve been lucky this far, so it wouldn’t hurt to ask for a little more.”

It is still a little past 6pm. At least until lunchtime things were worth waiting for.

“I see. As you expected, the time when the people going to the bar come out is around lunch time. That might be today.”

Gaendal quickly understood and nodded. He seems to have understood it well enough.

“Because there’s nothing bad for us. Let’s wait a little longer. Honestly, I’m looking forward to it because it’s going well this far.”

It is solved so smoothly that there is no need for even a hint of doubt.

Even seeing how they reacted to the word “user,” it was clear that they were not much better than the Baera mercenaries.

Slowly, the difficulty of the request began to be measured in detail with my own eyes. And that too in a very, very optimistic way.
