Chapter 373 – Troll Song

But.

“I will not be the one to judge.”

I calmed down the anger and violence that was about to explode.

“Kkeuh…! Kkeuk! Kkuk!”
ㅡQuuuuu!!!!

The Humpback howled and hugged the Troll, and the Troll licked the Humpback with a terrible scream. At first glance, it might seem like a sympathetic sight, but to me it seemed like nothing but immoral acts that would rage into the heavens.

Eating with a monster!

Because he was stupid, because Humpback was an angular creature, and because he lived discriminated against in the village, the troll might have been his only friend.

It could be that he overlapped his appearance with the deformed troll called Dongbangsangryeon and raised him with pity.

The smell didn’t just keep the male troll undetected, it could also have kept other nearby monsters from noticing it.

Yes, it could have been.

But being pitiful doesn’t mean you’re not guilty. I have no interest in intentions. In the end, seven people died because of the atrocities of this hunchback.

What a terrible crime.

But this is not my problem to solve. The seven victims are all villagers. It is right to leave the disposition to them.

“I’ll let the villagers know about this and let them dispose of it.”

I decided to do that.

This is the conclusion as a knight Kim Katt.

As an adventurer, I couldn’t just pass by the yard, which was something that would cost me 20 silver each.

“What’s up with you bastard? I thought you’d run amok to kill me right away.”
“Come to think of it, it wasn’t my job. Let’s go anyway. Give me the troll!”

I immediately took the troll away from Humpback.

ㅡ Kwii profit!!

It’s an unpleasant sound any time you hear it. Grab the rampaging troll’s arm and restrain it from moving. It was not unreasonable because it was deformedly small, and it was uncomfortable to do it with one hand.

ㅡ Gwuuuuu!!!

No, fuck it, and it was fucking heavy because I tried to lift it with one hand. Even though it’s the size of a child, it’s because it’s a monster in name.

I also run wild.

“Do, give it back!”
“Give me something back, you bastard! Follow me!”

Claudy said as he was grappling with the troll with one hand.

“Kat, I’ll listen to the troll.”
“Are you okay? A monster?”
“Hehe, it doesn’t matter. I want to touch it.”

Cloudy grabbed both of the troll’s wrists tightly. The troll roared like a pig again, but it couldn’t match her ghostly grip her.

ㅡ kkwiiiiik!!!

“Ku, cool!”
“Shut up dude!”

So we came out.

It was slowly dawning.

“Winia, can you put on your backpack? Katt is hurt right now.”
“I was going to.”

The backpack I had taken off was standing next to the cave.

“I’m sorry. Winia.”
“If you get hurt and can’t lift it. What are you sorry about?
“I still wear heavy things, so I’m sorry.”
“Well, go back and pick it up with your other hand.”
“Quit.”

Humpback came out of the cave after us, crying out for Kul-Kul to be returned without having to be dragged out separately.

It’s a really terrible obsession.

It seemed to me that this was no different than the heathen clinging to their mad dogma.

“Give it back, Cool Cool!!!”

The hunchback came out and tried to charge at Cloudy.

“Where!”

I reached out with my right hand and grabbed the hem of his clothes by the back of his neck. I’ll have to catch this guy. Cloudy smiled at me and shook his half-extended kol-koo.

“Cool cool!!!!”
ㅡ kkwiyeeeee!!!

The monsters were gone as they howled at the same time.

“You bastard!”

Filled with anger, I immediately yelled at the guy. Before I go to town, I’m going to have to educate this stupid bastard about what he’s done.

“I know people died because of Nikul-Kul! You have to kill that!”
“Ku, Kul-Kul didn’t hit anyone! My, please don’t bully! I was wrong! Give Kul-Kul back!!!”

He just stretched out her arm her towards Kul-Kul.

“I don’t understand, you bastard. Hey, stop talking your teeth and listen carefully. A troll came and killed seven people because of that cool kid you raised! Do you understand! Do you know what you did!!”

What a devilish bastard!

“I don’t know, I don’t know! I don’t know! Give back Kul-Kul! Kul-Kul is not at fault!”
“This baby is still! Cool Cool was wrong!”
“Kulkkul did nothing wrong…! I don’t know, I don’t know…! I don’t know…! I don’t know what he did wrong…!”
“No, I’m not stupid.”

This nasty bastard isn’t just low intelligence.

They just think what they like, and they don’t want to hear or accept the unfavorable truth.

Even if I have to explain to this bastard for a hundred days, he won’t listen.

I warned him not to come to the forest, but he’s a bastard who finally comes in.

“Anyway, Cool Cool is confiscated. This monster brings out the troll.
“My, I was wrong! Kul-Kul, please forgive me!! I beg you like this…! You are my one and only friend!!! Give it back!!”

Now I’m even trying to negotiate.

“You’re right, you’re saying that you’re wrong, and you’re saying that even Kul-Kul can’t forgive you, you crazy bastard. Kul-Kul, this Mr. Palum called a troll and killed seven people. Do you understand?”
“Mo, I don’t know, I don’t know! Cool Cool is nice…!”

It will be good to you.

“What are you going to do about the fuck?”

It is useless to say more.

Conversation doesn’t work, and the guy is just picking up words to avoid the situation.

“Tsk tsk tsk, that foolish bastard. Aww, annoying. What’s going on? They’re ruining the town. You can’t watch this. The bastard is hurt.”

Winia also expressed displeasure.

It’s something she should never let go of, as she says.

Wrong beliefs and twisted common sense.

And ignorance.

These may result in the annihilation of the village community.

This is no different than heresy.

“…That’s right.”

This world is not a friendly place.

Monsters and pagans cruelly penetrate when there is a gap, bite without hesitation if they see a weak spot, and are always planning only to annihilate humans. Just like an ancient monster that is said to be crouching in the deepest abyss, it will live with such terrible thoughts forever.

Carelessness is forbidden.

If the troll hadn’t been a little more careful, if it had simply broken into the village and slaughtered it, would anyone have stopped it?

Even if the youths with farm tools had gathered their strength to repel them, the damage would have been indescribable.

Imperialism must be plucked from its roots.

So we arrived at the village.

“Mo, the adventurers are back!!”
“The troll! The troll is captured!!”
“Adventurers are back!!”

I shouted loudly at the maddened residents.

“The troll has been subjugated! Here, I brought the troll’s head, so witness the end of the monster that killed your family and friends!”

Winia tosses off her rucksack, and I pull the troll’s huge head out of it. The dead troll’s mouth stretched open, his long tongue hanging out.

“Oh, oh oh!!! Terrible monster!!!”
“It’s so inhuman!!!”
“The troll is dead! The troll is dead!”

The villagers were both delighted and shocked. In the meantime, a sharp-witted person pointed at Cloudy and said.

“That, what is that! A troll bastard!”
“And why is Pasper coming with me…?”

I guess I need a long explanation now.

“Call the village chief.”

Winia said coldly.

“Eight.”
“Wowaaaaagh!!!”

Cloudy pretended to throw the Kul-Kuli he was holding at the residents, and she was delighted to see the frightened reaction of the residents.

I did that and let the hunchback go.

“Cool cool!”
“Cloudy. Let me go now.”
“Yes.”

When Cloudy let go of Kul-Koo, it jumped up and bounced at Hunchback. Hunchback hugged Kulkul and sat down, crying bitterly.

ㅡ Gwyiyiying!!!
“Huh… Keugh, cool cool!!!”

It’s not a very sympathetic sight.

“Pa, Pasper! What the hell is that monster!”

Villagers surrounded the humble hunchback and the hideous monster. Even if they did their interrogation, they wouldn’t be able to find out anything.

I’ll just have to talk to the village chief about this.

“Winia. Let’s go to the village chief.”

Then he headed to the village chief.

On the way, I saw the village chief coming along with a man who had gone to announce the news.

“Oh, oh oh! Adventurers! Good work! Trolls…!”
“Don’t worry, I killed him. Rather than that, I’d like to talk to you at the chief’s house.”
“Ah, I see.”

I immediately went to his house with the village chief. Now, as a hired person, let’s reveal the truth of this incident to the client.

“The troll was killed. It was quite large. Indeed, there was a reason the commission was expensive… By the way. I found out a strange fact.”
“Weird fact? What is it?”

I organized the story while drinking tea served by the village chief’s wife.

First of all, it can be seen that this incident did not happen naturally.

The troll that raided the village was a male troll in heat, blinded by the search for a female. Strangely, however, he did not find a female to mate with and leave, killing people one after another.

After trying to figure out what the reason was, there was a hunchback at the center.

Humpback had been raising a troll female hidden in a cave. Even while erasing the smell.

So the male troll went on a rampage.

I knew there was a female, but the smell was so faint that I couldn’t find it and went back to stress.

I explained this to the village chief.

“Yes. Exactly. Humpback was raising a female troll. We’re guessing that’s what brought the trolls in heat to the village.”

As he summarized the facts he had learned, the village headman’s complexion turned pale.

“That, it can’t be…! Pasper, how dare you do that!!!!!”
“Rather than that, please fill out the request completion form.”
“I already made it.”

At that, the village chief took out a certificate from his bosom. A request from the Adventurer’s Guild. The village headman’s seal was stamped in the quest completion column.

C-level quest completed.

Earned 20 silver.

Mr. Palpiki.

“Thank you very much. Three villagers were injured…But that’s good enough.”
“No, I have something to say about that, but if a monster appears, tell them to run away. Watching nearby will only increase the number of victims. They all came together.”

Should I call it insecurity? If you can’t deal with it, it’s better to run away instead of gathering and watching.

“Ah, I see. I will.”

After talking with the village chief, I went back to the lodging, packed my things, and went back to the site. The carriage was already waiting.

I completed the quest, so I can go back now.

ㅡ Kwiyiyiik!!!
“Don’t hit Kul-Kul!!!”

By the time we got there, the troll was already tied up. Villagers surrounded it, and Humpback was weeping and trying to protect the troll.

It’s a really strange sight.

The figure of protecting a monster in the gap between people.

“Pasper! Get away from there! Why the hell are you covering a troll!”
“Get out of the way! That’s a monster! You son of a monster who killed us!”
“If you don’t kill it quickly, you might hear the cries and the mother might come!”

It’s not a baby, but a disabled female. Of course, the troll mother never came.

So let’s go back now.

The village chief will take care of the humpback.

It’s the town’s problem, it’s not my job.

“Adventurers! So, are you leaving now?”
“That’s right. Let’s go right away.”

The coachman got on the horse.

Winia said once the luggage was loaded.

“Bastard. That troll.”
“Hmm? Why?”
“I think you can sell it in the arena. A troll is a troll no matter how handicapped you are. If you take it, you’ll definitely get a decent price.”

No, when you think about it, is that so?

I immediately exclaimed.

“It’s dangerous. Get away from the troll right now!”
“Ah, I see!”

The villagers surrounding Humpback and the Troll made a way in an instant. I walked slowly towards them.

“Give me!”
“Oh no!!!”

As it was, I pulled the rope that tied Kul-Kuly and snatched the troll away from Hunchback. He cried out for it to be returned, but was soon subdued by the residents.

“Where is the adventurer!!! Calm down, Pasper!”
“Mo, adventurers? What are you going to do with that troll?”

One of the uncles asked and proudly declared.

“It’s a dangerous monster, so we’ll dispose of it! To prevent other damage, we need to take it and study it! A golden opportunity to reveal the troll’s habits!”
“I see…! As expected!”
“As expected, it’s good that you collected money and commissioned the adventurer’s guild!”
“This is the birth of a village guardian!”

It’s a bitch, but I believe it well.

If I sold the troll’s blood, heart, and even this Kul-Kul to the arena, the price for my broken arm would be sufficient.

I think I will have to focus on treatment for about a few weeks.

“Cut! Let’s go now!”
“Okay!”

So we boarded the wagon. One arm was uncomfortable, so I had no choice but to get on board with Cloudy’s help.

“Oh, this is so pathetic. Thanks, Cloudy.”
“No. Katt did a really good job. I’m not pathetic at all. Isn’t it natural for a warrior to get hurt while fighting? It would have been nice if I had visible scars… Is it a little bit like thinking like this?”
“It can’t be. Oh, it will hurt.”

Cloudy smiled and stroked my hair. Even though he hurt his arm, it was a good thing that he had a fight with the giant troll.

“I’m leaving!”

Then the three of us and Kul-Kul set off for Isvant.

ㅡ Gwyiyiingi profit!!

“Oh fuck, bastard. But it’s too loud. I want to kill him.”
Hehe, me too.”

ㅡ Gwyyyyyyyyy!!!!!

Kul-Kul, who was tied up, howled like a pig while looking toward the village.

It’s… Yes.

It was a song.

A miserable howl, a screaming scream. What did Kul-Kul see and what did she feel? Somehow, on the other side of town, the humpback’s ‘Kul-Koo-Ah!’ It seemed that a cry was heard.

“Well… You did a good job today.”

Trolls will no longer appear in town.

ㅡ qooooo were

A breeze blew and tickled my cheeks. The peaceful atmosphere and Cool Cool’s song matched quite unbalanced, somehow creating an atmosphere like outdated jazz.

Spring is coming to an end soon.
