Chapter 368 – Troll Song

We got up early in the morning and quickly got ready and went to chase the troll. There were a lot of footprints left, and it wasn’t difficult to orient as they all headed towards the forest.

The traces remain so openly that it seems clear that even a three-year-old kid will be able to track them down.

I heard that trolls are not very smart monsters, but it seems to be true.

“Adventurers! Be sure to catch the troll!”
“Please!
“Cheer up!”

No matter how trolls appeared, the farmers are busy working in the nearby fields as if they could not give up their livelihoods.

Hehe, don’t worry.”

I waved them once.

Trolls who prey on good farmers are unforgiving.

I just hope we don’t have to engage a troll and then run away and cause damage to civilians.

So went into the woods.

“He probably isn’t far off, seeing as he’s been raiding for days on end.”

Winia, raising her staff her, said while skillfully examining the troll’s path. Since it was a troll that came down to the house to hunt, it must have been so.

“I’ll do it. I’ll have to build a nest nearby to go back and forth.”

I’m looking around with a big backpack behind him. Cloudy is following from behind.

It was morning, so the forest was covered with fog, so it felt a little cold.

Green plants were growing densely between the large trees, and at a glance, traces of being trampled and dented remained. Seeing it and following it, it felt like a troll was kindly guiding me to the centipede’s house.

It was when he was following Winia like that.

“Kat. Over there.”

Cloudy behind me patted me on the shoulder and pointed to the other side. Thinking it might be a troll, I threw her bag and tried to pull out her knife, but she grabbed my wrist.

“Not a troll. Who do you think is there? A monster?”
“Winia. What are you talking about? Stop for a moment.”

While calling Winia, I checked the direction Cloudy was pointing at.

It was hard to see because it was obscured by thick fog and thick brush, but I could tell that something was moving over there.

“Sister, what do you see?”
“Well? Good.”

Anyway, everything is a scramble for investigation Kim Katt.

ㅡSureung.

I immediately put down my backpack and went towards it, aiming my knife.

It must have been a villager or a monster, but since trolls are said to be coming out of this forest, there is no way they would be crawling into the forest unless they were idiots with bad personalities.

Are you a thief or a tramp?
Or forest jogger?

Maybe the village kid came out to play.
He Could be a monster.

Hehe.”

Coming so close, I saw a rather unexpected being crouched down.

ㅡ back and forth.

It was the bizarre humpback I saw yesterday.

He was digging with his hand at the base of the tree, letting out a grim laugh. He was so focused that he didn’t even notice when we approached.

“Isn’t this bastard the hunchback from yesterday?”

What is this kid

It’s usually insane to come out early in the morning to a forest where trolls come out and play in the dirt. There is no such thing as a true warrior or a madman.

“I guess so. Why are you here?”
“Did something. Bastard, just chase it. You’ll get in trouble if you go after it.”

They said it as if it didn’t matter.

“Yes. That’s how it should be.”

Well, what else can I do other than rummaging around here? It’s the right thing to just kick them out.

As Winia said, there will be a problem if you stay here for nothing. If the guild sends us to hunt trolls and we die, our careers may suffer.

No, if you said trolls are coming, you’ll be at home. Why are you dangerously creeping into the woods?

Bitch.

Fell behind

“You bastard, what are you doing here?”
“Ah? Who, who… Is that?”

When we asked, patting the back with his toe, he finally noticed us and turned his head.

“Your mother.”

Looking at it up close, the face is also quite hideous.

His nose his is wrinkled and his skin his is as thick as that of a toad. One of her eyes was also squinting, which made her look even worse.

Seeing that this kind of guy is recognized as a member of the village, it seems like a friendly village.

“Well, my mother, uh, she doesn’t exist.”
“I’m a baby too. What are you doing more than that?”

I knew right away that this guy had no parents. I asked because I thought I should know what he was doing before kicking him out, and he said while showing his muddy hands his.

“Heh, hehe. Me, me. Mushroom. Catch mushrooms.”
“Catch the mushrooms? Why?”
“Bur, mushrooms. Lots of blood, needed.”
“Yes, yes. No, you need a lot. Oh, my dear.”

The way you talk is so frustrating.

“Here’s the troll and bastard. Get home before you die. Didn’t I tell you yesterday?”

It’s a guilty pleasure just to creep into such a dangerous area without fear.

“Bur, we need to catch mushrooms.”
“I’m not a bastard who heard it through words.”

Just give it a few punches until it runs away.

If words do not work, there is no choice but to resort to violence.

It would be a hundred times more profitable to finish with a few hits than to fall behind the trolls. Good luck earning today, Kim Katt.

As I put the knife in and tried to kick it, the guy stared at Winia and Cloudy and said,

“Heh,hehe. She’s a pretty woman.”
“What?”

At those words, Winia’s face her immediately contorted.

I was going to forgive you until this point.

“Yes, pretty girl, ga, she has huge breasts. Blood, skin is white. Ga, brown girl has big breasts too.”
“You bastard!”

ㅡPeruk!

Hearing that, I couldn’t pass it by, so I immediately kicked it.

“Quack!”
“This motherfucker dares to sexually harass my woman?!”

Hunchback, who had been hit directly on her back in a crouched position, fell face down and slammed her face into the trunk of a tree. This would correct his scoliosis her. He said that he had no parents, but even the talkative birds were no longer there.

“Okaya, this chewy. I’m going to open the back right now today.”
“Keep… Kuck!”

I hit the hunchback with its face down on the ground at random. Do you dare to harass my girls breasts? Give this to the brink of losing, and you have no choice but to lose.

ㅡ Pleasant!
—-Bah!

“You bastard!
“Kheuk! Tteuk! Ah, it hurts!! Stop it! It hurts a lot!”

That’s something only I can do.

After about 30 seconds of taekwondo, Winia and Cloudy spoke to me.

“Bastard. You’re just an idiot. That’s enough.”
“Whoops, Kat. Please forgive me for being an idiot.”

Even if I said this, it seemed that I liked my impromptu assault show.

I picked up the half-mopped hunchback and stood it up. Unfortunately, the physical therapy did not work at all, and the back was not straightened.

“It hurts! That! Stop hitting me!”

Seeing how frightened he was, it was clear that he would not even venture into the woods anymore. I didn’t have time to kindly take a guy who doesn’t speak the language to the village, so I just wanted to do this.

“Conflict!!!!”
“Heeheeeee!!!!”

Screaming furiously at the scolding her while pretending to beat her, the Humpbacked staggered away swiftly towards the village, teasing her legs grotesquely.

Hehe.”

You did a good job.

It’s better to give them a few massages than to get killed by a troll while playing in the dirt here.

“Cuk-Cook. Funny, really.”
“Whoops. Is that so?”

Although he was an idiot and a humpback, he brought a big smile to our family. As I was laughing and passing the time, I suddenly noticed a sack lying on the ground.

“Is this the bastard thing?”

When I picked it up and checked the inside, I see.

A few things like plants and mushrooms came out.

Apparently, he woke up early in the morning and came out to collect these things. Well, at a glance, he’s an idiot, so he doesn’t know much about trolls, and he seems to have come out to do his job.

“Winia. What kind of mushroom is this?”
“This is a bird’s-call mushroom. It’s a mushroom that grows on the roots of trees.”

Was that the reason you were digging the ground at the base of the tree?

“Is something effective?”
“It’s said to be effective. When crushed, it gives off a peculiar scent, but it can be used to remove a slightly strong smell.”
“Something like a deodorant.”

I packed the sack and put it back where it was. You never know, but he might come looking for you again. It’s a waste to get lost in the forest while looking for nothing.

If you find it, I will come and find it for you.

I left and resumed tracking again.

Search the area for footprints and crushed plants. And finding a hole in the ground and connecting it with a line to trace the troll’s movement path.

It was not difficult to track because there were so many tracks.

Still, it took a while as there were many of them, so it was already lunch time.

“Ah, fucking hungry. What should I do? Do you want to go to town and eat? Or do you want to eat here?”
“Is that necessary? Let’s just eat here.”
“It’s too much trouble to go back. Go get some firewood, bastard.”
“Draw.”

After making a suitable seat and finding firewood, Winia started a fire. She finished her meal by warming up the beef jerky and dry rice she had brought.

“Hehe, cut better than that.”

Cloudy, who was eating jerky, said with a laugh.

“Hmm? Why?”
“Did you hear that and get so angry?”
“Ah. That idiot said her breasts her? Of course he’s pissed off, you fucking bastard.”

Of course, that’s bound to make me angry.

Just because you’re stupid doesn’t mean your sins are forgiven. Intelligence is never an indulgence. Seeing it that way was showing mercy in its own way.

“I’m happy. Actually, I was excited to see that.”
Hehe, excitement. Like this violent woman.”
“It’s cool.”

When he touched Cloudy’s ear, he made a sound as if he was happy.

“But Winia.”
“Why?”
“As expected, it would be better to change clothes. It’s going to cause trouble because she goes around exposing her breasts to her.”

Cloudy covers her whole body with her leather clothes and jacket, then pulls her hood down, but Winia lives with her upper breasts almost bare, as her taste her in robes has n’t changed.

“You care about bastards?”
“Of course he cares. He only wants to see me.”
“Cuk-Cuk. Is that so? But I don’t care. I’m used to that kind of gaze.”
“No, then you have to cover more.”
“You don’t have to worry about what other people think, right? I just wear it because I like myself. I like bastards, but what?”
“A proud woman.”

She finished her meal and resumed her search. As she continued, she came to a stream, but her footprints were cut off here.

Are traces erased here?

“Shall we cross?”

Cloudy said.

“No, I think it would be better to look around this area a little more.”

Winia replied that she might be thinking of starting a search this way. Is it a bit unreasonable to find this today? If you don’t find it today, you may be in a bit of trouble in the afternoon.

Because the troll will be able to come down to the house again.

Then you won’t be able to sleep and you’ll have to stay up all night there.

“Bastard let’s move fast.”

Winia seemed to be aware of that too, and her steps quickened her. Well, it’s okay If you don’t look this way all the time, wouldn’t it be clear that you’ve built a nest across the stream?

As she thought about it, she searched hard, but in the end the troll could not be found.

The troll and the road crossed, so we could go down to the house while we were here, so we decided to return to the village at this point.

On the way back, I passed the place where I gave the hunchback and hit it.

The sack was gone, probably because it had come and gone again.

“That idiot from before. Looks like he’s back.”
“Have you been beaten less by Kat?”
“I should have hit you a little harder.”

Even if you beat him like that, it’s still insane to come back to the forest.

I hope not tomorrow

In the end, they only chased hard today, but the troll couldn’t even see a shadow. Returning around sunset, the villagers shouted from afar.

“T-troll! Did you catch the troll?”
“You’re back!”

Luckily, the trolls didn’t attack.

Winia told them that she hadn’t found the troll today, so she should hurry up and lock the door and go to sleep.

“Bastard, I’m going to have to camp out over here tonight. They might show up at night.”
“It ends up like this.”

Our accommodation is a bit far away, so we can’t respond immediately when a troll appears. Even though the village is surrounded by wooden fences, it doesn’t seem to be perfectly protected because the height is not constant, so it would be better to be on guard near the forest.

There was an attack for several days, so it wouldn’t be strange if it was today.

It’s going to be a little rough tonight.
