Chapter 50 – Hunters and Goblins (2)

– Ting!
After finishing the uproar in the house, and finally going out on the road, the holy sword began to riot again.
[The holy sword requires replenishment of holy power. ]
What the hell did this Holy Sword guy do at night? Just in case, I checked where this guy was, but there was no sign of something burned or burnt.
– Ting!
“… Lenny. I’d like to recharge this please. Sorry.”
“No.”
Lenny accepts the holy sword and starts talking again.
“Seonggeom-nim, can you hear me? If you can hear it, can you use the torch just once?”
“… “
Holy sword guy. You still have something to hide from me. What the hell did you do secretly at night…
“Holy Sword? How can I use divine power alone? Are you still okay?”
“… “
Come to think of it, Lenny also steals secretly every night. Trying to rob semen. And yesterday, in the end, I even succeeded in face-to-face…
“What? Can’t I use it too? Does it look fun? How are you doing? But why are you talking? Can you even speak to that Holy Sword?”
“… “
Also, this guy is a shameless liar! Why are there only guys who hide something insidiously around me, thieves, and liars?
Fortunately, it’s only pathetic things that are revealed soon after.
…Coming to think of it, I also lied a lot. Maybe it’s my karma…
“Oh, brother. Sister, why are you talking to the knife?”
“… Lenny? Are you still there?”
“Oh, here!”
“Sheesh… “
Ignore it and kick your tongue. Whoa… Hold on… Hold on…
Yuri kicked a stone on the side of the road as if he didn’t like something. Come to think of it, what this guy was wearing were not yesterday’s new boots, but rather old and worn boots that felt like combat boots.
“… Aren’t you wearing those new boots?”
Yuri immediately pours out words in response to my question. He wasn’t weighing what he was saying, he just poured out the words in his brain without a filter.
“Are you stupid bro? Didn’t you hear the road? Wear that and go to the dungeon? Don’t you know that you should use familiar equipment? Are you okay? Are you an adventurer? Do you think it’s a long way to escape the wannabe?”
Kreuk… Kreurreureuk…
Let’s be patient… We have to be patient….
Like it or not, Yuri doesn’t stop her mouth.
“Looks like you need someone to take care of you? How is it? Can I join the party too? Do you think I can do a good job teaching a strong beginner like you? Could it be? Hee hee.”
I’m sorry… I’m sorry…
…This guy. Obviously, attachment is good. But… It’s disgusting. You can be so nasty….
“Ugh!”
As I walked with my head lowered to hold back the boiling rage, Yuri suddenly thrust her head into my face.
“It’s okay? If you don’t look in front of you, will you fall? It’s a mountain road here, so you have to be careful, right?”
Oh oh oh oh oh oh….Rrrrr
This guy…It’s really too nasty to raise the end of the word. Really, really, if I could hit just one honey chestnut, I wouldn’t have a wish.
When I shot it with that meaning in it, Yuri was giggling at what was so good about it.
And then I bent her upper body and somehow pushed her face into my field of vision and looked up …
Certainly a beauty is a beauty. It was nice to see her stride her with her outstretched legs, and it was strangely sexy that the throwing dagger she had equipped on her thigh her earlier tightened and tightened her thigh like a bondage garter.
… She might have fallen in love if she hadn’t really kept her mouth shut.
“Yu, Yujin… “
Lenny whimpered and turned around to see that her robe her had been rolled up a bit, exposing her calves her. I could n’t get it up to her lap her, but she’s blushing as if she’s ashamed to even reveal that much.
The ones Lenny was wearing were some kind of ankle boots, so they didn’t show off her glassy legs on her, but she was still good…
“Ah, sister! You can’t put her bare legs out here like that. You might get bitten by bugs.”
“Yes…”
“Let’s hurry! If you make a mistake, you will be late!”
“Okay…”

Although she says that she is with beauties, the road to the dungeon is a hike after all. A road that can never be said to be pleasant.
To go to the dungeon, you had to walk that way for half a day. The dungeon, as always, was deep in the mountains. Did you just come to see this place?
Suspicious…
“Hey. Mr. Glass. It makes sense that she comes to visit a place like this…”
“Brother… I’m sorry, but can you put this in your pocket?”
This, this guy… She’s taking out the new gear she’s been wearing and handing it over to me. As soon as I speak! As if she was aiming! I asked if I needed it earlier, but he was stubborn!
…Let’s wait. Be patient have to be patient
“…Therefore. Mr. Glass. It’s strange when I think about it. Does it make sense to visit a goblin dungeon or something? Isn’t it a short enough distance to go take a look because I’m bored?”
“… “
At those words, Yuri stopped walking. The attitude of having something to say. Yuri lowered her head like that…
In a hushed voice she began to talk.
“Brother. By any chance… Do you know that you are a hero?”
“… !”
Did you find out I’m a summoner?!
I quickly turned to Lenny and Lenny shook her head with her tense face.
That’s not what Lenny said. So what? Was the hair color and eye color a problem? For that matter, this guy also had dark hair, and that aunt also had black hair and brown eyes close to black.
“…I’ve heard the story. Why?”
“Actually, my grandfather was a warrior… “
…Relaxed.
I see. A few questions have now been answered. Like jet-black hair, a strangely earthy name called Yuri, or something like a box tee.
Well, the warriors were summoned periodically, and sometimes there are people who stay here. It wouldn’t be strange if they had descendants.
“Therefore…”
“Therefore?”
“It’s just… How to say. Is it the warrior’s lineage? The adventurous spirit burning in me? Do you think there is such a thing? Hi-Hi. And continuing to live in the countryside…Wasting youth? Do you think it might be like that? Hee hee hee.”
… A country girl longing for adventure was before her eyes her. She’s really stuck in a rut.
“Anyway! So, shoot the bow hard as usual! I waited for the right time while investigating the dungeon. But what happened to these guys appearing? I was lucky.”
“I see… “
This guy’s tension is hard to follow, so the sage time is about to come. It’s fortunate that the dungeon story doesn’t seem to be a lie.
“Miss Yuri. Adventure isn’t all that great. Didn’t Grandpa say something?”
Lenny cleans up for me. It’s really true even though I’m not thankful. It’s dangerous for ordinary people to do something like an adventurer, and the pay is inconsistent.
Besides, isn’t the hero’s ability passed down through heredity? If that was the case, he would have been a member of the royal family and full of warriors who used status windows.
“Ah… Grandpa… “
A glass that blurs the end. The atmosphere changed again. A slightly cracked voice.
“You have gone far away… Really…”
Don’t fall for that pattern now.
….No. This guy is really crying. What really happened?
“… !”
This, you brazen girl, is pinching her side of her…!
“…Okay, let’s go.”
There was nothing more to ask.

On the way while chatting in such trivial and pitiful ways, I came across a unique topography.
Cliffs about 5 meters high on both sides. And there is a road between them. Like a building? Post? It feels like the entrance to such a place. I’m a little anxious.
“Mr. Eugene? What are you looking at?”
“No. Because the cliffs are strangely formed here.”
Yuri excitedly explains as if she had waited for my words.
“Is not it? Aren’t you curious? I heard there are places like this often near dungeons. If this place wasn’t open like this, we’d have to go back quite a bit to get to the dungeon, right? “
He says in a tone that he can’t be too happy to tell you something. Do you like to be on top? Well, now is not the time to worry about tone. This terrain was quite ominous.
“Then you’re saying it’s hard to get out of the dungeon if you block this place?”
“Uh… Yes. Okay. Right!”
I’m getting more anxious. Isn’t this a trap? As soon as you pass here, the cliff collapses?
“Is there any other way?”
“Well… You can just climb the wall. It might be a bit difficult though. Come to think of it, did I pack the wall-climbing equipment?”
I put my head in as if to ask for praise, but I stopped turning away. You’re not very friendly, but we’re not that close yet…
“Lenny. Can you stop this with protection?”
“Yes. It is possible now.”
Lenny answered with a proud face. The appearance of shrinking, saying sorry for not having the strength like before, is no longer there. That’s a lot of confidence. At that time, I looked at my eyes like that in case I did something wrong… I think I’m going to cry a little.
I was so proud that I stroked my hair without even realizing it…
“Huh… Oppa, isn’t it really like that?”
“Because it’s not like that.”
Lenny answered with a smile.
Uh?
“Huh… Really?”
Hearing that, the daughter of a hunter goes ahead while saying what’s good.
Seeing that, Lenny smiled and looked up at me. She shoved her head back as if to compliment what she just said.
“…”
I had no choice but to stroke her hair again…

Silence fell on the way. A quiet mountain road where even the sound of birds is cut off. Yuri, who had been chatting endlessly, gradually lost his words as if he had read the atmosphere. Lenny walking close by my side. She’s holding her elbows tight as if she’s a little uneasy.
Not good. It’s really not good.
“If you go up there, you’ll see the entrance to the dungeon.”
Said Yuri with her sunken face. Okay. From now on, this is not a joke.
She held her breath and climbed to the ridge….
The dungeon was, of course, a cave.
However, there were some traces near the entrance to the dungeon. The rock has turned black here and there… It’s a trace of being burned. Somehow, the surrounding trees were also cut down.
“…Did the goblins light a fire?”
“No way. They don’t have the intelligence to do that.”
Yuri snorted. It is the calmly forged face that he showed when dealing with a wild boar before. It seems like this guy does it too.
“You said you’ve never been in?”
“Of course I never went in. But I kept saying that I also wanted to be an adventurer, right? I did a thorough investigation on my own.”
Yuri continued her explanation with a serious face.
“The monsters in the outer dungeon are weak and have bad brains. I don’t know if it’s a great labyrinth. These guys don’t have the intelligence to light things like fire.”
“…”
It’s as you say.
The reason why residents just leave the dungeon outside is because the monsters in the dungeon don’t do anything. River Bridge, but it’s not like that. External dungeons do not try to come out of the dungeon no matter what monsters are inside. That’s why villagers and monsters in dungeons treat each other like cows.
Of course, it would be normal to have no intelligence or thought to fire.
However…
“Then why are those trees the way they are?”
“… So you said Something is happening.”
Right. Now that the check is over, it’s time to move.
“Great. Shall we go back to the village then?”
“What?!”
Yuri was shocked.
