Chapter 369 – Troll Song

“You mean you didn’t find the troll?”

First of all, since the duration of the quest has increased a little, I have to report it to the owner of the village. After talking roughly about what we did today and the results of the chase, the village chief expressed regret.

“Hmm, I’m really sorry. And I’m anxious… I’ll be really afraid if they attack today.”
“Rather, it’s better to raid. It’ll be simpler that way. Oh, by the way, there’s that hunchbacked friend in town, right?”
“You mean Pasper? What happened?”

I informed the village chief that Humpback had entered the forest. Because it’s dangerous, it means to ask the village to manage it on its own until the trolls are subdued.

If there is a death, it is difficult for each other.

“That bastard, no. What’s that friend playing in the woods? We’ll be in trouble if we search, so please warn us not to go to the forest. He’s an idiot, so he couldn’t understand what I was saying. “
“That bastard is playing hit-and-run…! Got it. Be careful.”

At that moment, the village chief’s face twisted like a demon, but he ignored it. As I was about to go back, Winia asked the village chief.

“Chief. Has there ever been a troll attack like this before?”

Winia explained that trolls rarely settled in one place and constantly raided villages. She seems to have asked it out of concern.

“It’s a troll attack, as far as I can remember, that’s never happened.”
“Any other case?”
“Apparently these days are full of incidents… Ah. Come to think of it, around this time last year, a young man from the village who was working alone went missing.”
“Missing?”
“Yes. But we couldn’t find a body. Maybe he just left the village, but he just passed it because there was no evidence that he was dead. But I think he was probably kidnapped by a monster. An owl bear or something .Nearby the monsters you see in

It’s not a very big story.

It is quite common for a person to disappear without even a mouse knowing. It could be the monster’s work, or it could simply be that he was tired of life in the farming village.

“Hmm. Well, I understand.”

Winia nodded her head.

That way we came out.

From now on, I think I’ll have to stay up all night outside of town and watch out for trolls. After all, there was no way the troll raids that lasted for days would stop overnight.

Since it was a quest received from the Adventurer’s Guild, it had to be completed responsibly.

But why can’t these trolls be seen?

Could it be that he fainted at the smell of us?

“Winia. Do trolls have a good sense of smell?”
“No. It’s not a monster with a developed sense of smell. Why?”
“I thought they ran away because of the smell of outsiders like us.”
“I don’t think the trolls can tell us apart from the villagers.”
“Is it.”

Anyway, I decided to borrow a shovel and materials from the farmhouse and make a place to spend the night in a place facing the forest.

ㅡPeruk!

He immediately drove the shovel into the ground.

“Oh, bastard digs well.”

Even so, when I was in the army, I was only digging the ground. Making a camp is something you can do with your eyes closed. It was dark because it was already night, but Winia turned on the lantern so there was no problem with the work.

“Kat. Can I help you?”
“No, I can do it right away.”

Let’s try to make use of that experience.

There is even a shovel, so there is nothing to worry about. No, on the contrary, my stamina and muscle strength have improved, and I am the one who also obtained a new energy source called mana.

“Ah, this is sincerity.”

It wasn’t long before I finished a cool camp.

The walls and roof were made from plucked tree branches and borrowed piles of straw, so it seemed like I could spend the night warmly.

“It’s damn comfortable.”

I’m satisfied with what I made in a short time.

“Now, let’s go in.”

Straw is also laid on the ground of the camp. I went in first and sat down, Winia and Cloudy came in in turn.

“It’s better than I thought? A bastard like this?”
“Kat, that’s cool.”
“There’s nothing like this to spend the day.”

If I normally carry a shovel, I would always make it like this, but since I don’t carry it around, I haven’t had a chance to showcase it.

I also borrowed an iron shovel, so I was able to demonstrate my skills 100%.

“Then let’s take turns sleeping and being alert.”

That’s how we stayed alert while sleeping in turn in the camp. It would be a problem if the trolls showed up at night and climbed over the village fence. It was a bit cold, but there was a lantern and it was not very difficult because it made it possible to lie down.

Surprisingly, there were no trolls attacking us during the night, overshadowing our efforts.

“Fuck.”

The night passed peacefully.

If I had known this was going to happen, I would have just gone to the inn in the village and slept.

“Oh shit. Bastard I’m so tired.”
“Me too, damn it.”

As soon as she opened her eyes, Winia complained and went out of the camp. I’m tired too. But you can’t rest.

There is no rest until the troll is caught.

“Should I go to the village first? I want to wash my face and eat something warm.”
“Nice talk. Let’s go quickly, bastard.”

We went back to the village rubbing our eyes.

Aaaaa!!!!!

When I entered the village, I heard a shrieking sound, so I ran quickly. Maybe a troll appeared?

“Aaaaa!!!”
“No, that bastard.”

It was none other than Jake who was screaming. He was lying on his back in the middle of town, his eyes closed and his whole body twisting and having a seizure.

“Ah, you adventurers! It’s no big deal. Jake suddenly had a seizure…”
“…It doesn’t matter.”

I was expecting nothing, Sea Pearl.

That way, I went into the hall the village chief had guided me to yesterday and paid 3 coppers to buy some stew. The taste wasn’t that great, but it was just boiled, and it was hot, so it was satisfying in its own way.

“Bastard. Then I’ll wash my face and come back. You go with your sister.”
“Yes. Kat, will you be here?”
“Uh. I’ll be here, so go.”

You can rest for a while in the village and start searching again. We decided to take a break for an hour each. Winia and Cloudy went to the inn, and I just sat and rested in the hall.

“You fucking troll.”

I hope you show up sooner rather than later.

They said there were seven victims, and since we came, they haven’t seen any nosebleeds. When I went to catch a cockatrice in the past, I found it faster than I thought, so it was okay, damn it.

After I closed my eyes for a while, the girls returned and set off towards the forest again.

“Bastard, we’re going to cross the creek today and search.”
“It should be.”
“Huh, I’d like to find it today.”

I had already seen the entrance to the forest yesterday, so I skimmed through it. I can’t really see where the troll could hide.

It was a moment beyond the beginning.

“No, that bastard didn’t come, so he came again.”

In front of me, I saw Humpback sitting down and playing in the dirt again. I quickly ran over and grabbed him by the back of his head.

No, he personally taught me not to be eaten by this bastard, but he came to search again.

“Ooh, ooh! Oh, it hurts!”
“Hey son of a bitch! Don’t come into the woods! I told you you’re going to be eaten by trolls, you fucking… Huh?”

When I looked at his face his, I wondered where he had been beaten so fucking hard.

Yesterday, I was puzzled because I only beat the mound and didn’t touch my face, but now that I think about it, I remembered asking the village chief to tell me something.

Apparently, the village chief seems to be a huge fan.

I thought it was a friendly village, but it is also an ordinary otherworldly village.

“Oh, it hurts! No, let me go!”
“I’ll let you go, so get out of town! They say you’ll be a troll if you stay here, you motherfucker!”

That said, there was no reason to be considerate of him. Who will take responsibility if you stay here and get lost? If I put in a request in the village and a person died, my reward might be cut.

It is absolutely unacceptable.

“Don’t be here and go home! If you come back to the forest, you go back!”
“Keuk!”

I immediately kicked him in the ass, and he screamed like a pig, grabbed his sack his, and ran away in a huff.

“What the hell are you doing?”

Seeing this, Winia expressed her doubts.

“You’re just an idiot. I told you not to come, so you’re coming in again. Seeing that you came earlier than us, it means that you came at dawn, but I didn’t manage to find you.”

Even if you persuade with violence to save him like this, there is no other way if he will come after you. It’s ridiculous, but I did everything I wanted to do.

“They’re not dead. Could it be that the trolls have already escaped?”

Cloudy’s words were quite to the point.

“Well.”

Perhaps, as she said, the troll with a full stomach of human flesh came to his senses her and ran away. Then it’s like a real bitch.

It was a waste of time and the quest was a failure.

Now is not the time to worry about whether that hunchbacked bastard will fall behind.

“I can’t do that. Bastard! Sister! Run!”

We ran straight to the creek. Since it was a deserted place, traces of trolls were still present.

ㅡShuaaaaa.

The creek was quite wide, and it seemed like your legs would get wet if you tried to cross it.

Looking at it roughly, I can’t cross without getting wet.

“Then shall we cross?”

Cloudy tried to get his foot down.

“Stop.”
“Yes?”
“I can’t get my girls wet. Winia. Get me on my back. Claudy on me.”

Transports both women at the same time.

In the current country, it is possible enough.

“Oh, Kat.”
“Do our bastards say all the pretty things?”

When I said that, two women with wide smiles clung to me without hesitation. I passed my backpack to Winia and took a position in front of the creek.

“Come on, ride!”
“Awesome!”
“Kyaa!”

Winia clung to my back, and Cloudy hugged me. It’s fucking heavy. The two women together weighed over 100 kg, so it was fucking heavy.

“Kat, are you okay? Can you hold on?”
“Of course.”

My legs felt trembling, but it was okay at this level. I took a step towards the stream, gathering all the energy stored in the fine wrinkles I had.

ㅡSuuk.

The water reaches to the knees.

“Whoop, bastard nice!”

Crossed the creek as it was. It was fucking heavy and it was painful to have Winia and Cloudy holding me tight, but somehow I got to my destination.

As soon as I arrived, I raised my strength and put them down.

“Big!”
“Kat, you worked hard. Thank you?”
“Good job bastard!”

It was hard, but it got better because they were very happy and praised me. Because I’m a bittersweet Kim cut.

Winia’s chest also has its pros and cons.

“Uh, Shiba. It’s tough. Anyway, let’s go.”

We set off again with Winia at the fore.

“Well, there are many traces of this side as well. It’s clear that there were trolls there. They probably moved yesterday too.”

After searching for a while, Winia said confidently.

Since he is also a magician, he quickly grasps the truth even with fragmentary information. To be honest, I don’t know if I see it, and Cloudy seems to know nothing about the forest because he is also a desert person.

Under the leadership of Winia, the march started again.

While doing so, I was able to find quite noticeable traces.

“A goblin corpse? It’s got a dog fuck.”

What they found was bloodstains everywhere and the remains of brutally destroyed goblins. After looking at it, Winia came to a conclusion.

“Looks like it was eaten by a troll. There’s probably a goblin lair nearby. If you’re lucky, there might be a troll in it.”
“Talking about eating gives me an appetite.”

We took out the beef jerky and chewed it carefully to find the goblin’s den. As Winia said, if you’re lucky, the troll that stole the nest might be taking a nap there.

“Isn’t that it?”

Using the adventurer’s experience to scan the surroundings, I found that there was something like a cave on the ridge over there.

“The smell of blood… That’s for sure.”

Cloudy, who smelled it, pulled out a curved sword.

I also drew my sword and Winia raised her staff her. We slowly approached the cave.

The entrance of the cave was about 1.6m long, and red blood was splattered not only at the entrance but also around it, and bone fragments and green flesh were scattered everywhere.

The goblins were massacred by the trolls.

Winia cast light magic, and Cloudy and I slowly entered with blades in front.

Of course there were no trolls.

“It’s crazy.”

Inside, there was nothing left but the miserable remains of a goblin family that had been chewed up. A strong smell of blood mixed with rotten incense wafted up.

This bastard, the troll, seemed to have a rather benign eating habit.

The splattered blood and flesh told us how brutally the goblins had become their meal.

“Maybe the trolls didn’t come to town yesterday because they were eating goblins?”
“I think so, sister.”

Well, it’s a terrible sight, but no one in this room cared about such trifles. I didn’t have anything to pack, so I immediately went outside. After a short break, the chase resumed.

It has been proven that trolls are still around here.

Fortunately, he didn’t run away.

I searched for it for a long time, but in the end, I had no choice but to go back today without much income. Holding them again, I crossed the stream and returned to the village.

“Aww, annoying! You don’t fucking come out on troll topics!”

Winia burst into annoyance. Cloudy clung to Winia to calm her down, but that only inflamed her anger.

“Bastard, let’s just go to the dorm and sleep. I can’t do it because I’m tired.”
“Mmm, yes. If something happens, you can just run away.”

After making that decision, we reported today’s work to the village chief and went back to the inn. It was already night. Quite tired

“Kat, I’m going to wash now. Can you look after me?”
“Sure.”

When I came to the lodging and put down my luggage, the world was already stained black. I went to the well with Winia and Cloudy, who took off their clothes casually.

It was while watching them wash.

ㅡKyaaaaa!!!!!
ㅡ A troll appeared!!!!!!!!!!
ㅡWowaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!

No fuck

“Ah! Cut!”
“Bastard!”

I immediately drew my sword and ran towards the sound.

“Put on your clothes and come! I’ll go first!”
“Okay!”

When you’re looking for some fucking shit, it doesn’t even show up, but it shows up when you’re trying to rest!

I do not approve of this kind of misfortune.

We are also people who think time is important, so we tried to shorten the time by finding and hunting ourselves rather than waiting for an attack.

“I won’t forgive anyone who cuts out my heart!!!”
