7. A fox appeared

“Master. Is this really safe?”

“If you don’t believe me, take it off. How is it?”

The hood I gave to Iris isn’t just a hood.

The face of the person who sees it is reflected differently by applying a little recognition-damping magic.

It’s for Iris, who sold her face for being a hero a while ago.

What can I do if the person in question doesn’t believe me? You have to take it off

“I told you to take it off if you’re not confident?”

“I will do my best to write well, Master!”

Why do you keep talking like that when it’s going to come out like that in the end?

I clicked my tongue and entered the city with Iris.

You can hear music here and there, and the acrid smell of smoke and blood enters your nostrils.

At least Iris arrived on time and reduced her damage a lot.

If it wasn’t for the disciple, it was clear that more than 80% of this city would have been in ruins.

“Fortunately, only the outskirts of the city suffered significant damage, and the interior seems to have survived.”

“Looking at it, the city guards are stubbornly resisting.”

“Sure. If this place falls, the entire society will be paralyzed.”

This area is not a good place to eat and live.

The climate is warm, so it’s not even a place where you can sleep on the ground for a few days.

If you sleep on the street after the house collapses, you will be able to return to your mouth the next day.

Perfect for being attacked by wild animals or monsters while sleeping.

Even if you run away from the monsters, the next step is where it becomes difficult.

I had to see that I had no choice but to use the wall as a shield and endure it, whether I like it or not.

“Usually, I would have paid attention to controlling the access of outsiders.”

“I feel like I’m out of my mind. Not many people died right away, but a lot of people were injured.”

“Thanks to you, no one cares even if you wear a hoodie. Let’s go in.”

As I entered, I could see the city at a glance.

As if a few monsters had entered, houses collapsed here and there.

I saw guards being cared for by others with injuries.

However, the houses here were so tight that the monsters couldn’t run wild.

It seems that the guards caught those who entered with desperate resistance.

“Ahn has endured quite well. Great.”

“Not great. Except for the fact that these are the weakest among monsters.”

“… They say it’s difficult for ordinary people to catch monsters.”

“The problem is that monsters stronger than that are coming like a tidal wave.”

From noble mtl dot com

Do only monsters come? Inside, demon worshipers aim for the back of the head.

And soon those who act as the captain of the monsters will follow.

Finally, when the demon fragments are revealed, it is the beginning of the true apocalypse.

“How can Master be so sure?”

“What do you mean?”

“The part that stronger monsters than the current monsters will appear.”

“The frequency of appearances of monsters is getting higher and higher. The movement of the worshipers who drank there is also unusual. This means only one thing. That something out of the ordinary is happening.”

“… You know a lot even though you don’t go out well in the world.”

For a moment, Iris’s sharp point nearly opened my eyes.

As the saying goes, I have never left my home while teaching my students.

If you try, you can visit Master, or go out to the city to buy something.

That was all I had to do when I left the place.

Considering that this is a remote area, so information and rumors are slow to reach.

It could certainly be suspicious that I knew too much.

‘But I have an excuse that I can use anywhere.’

Originally, I never intended to use it for this purpose.

Since my location is a location, I naturally started using it.

“Iris. Who am I the teacher of?”

“Uh… Are you the master of the warriors?”

“Yes. He is the teacher of warriors spread across the continent. Then, is it really difficult or easy to hear news from all over the continent from my disciples?”

“Easy… It must be work.”

“That is my answer to your question. You stupid disciple.”

“Ah… ! Aren’t you stupid?! I am now a full-fledged warrior!”

I’m not even going to do it, kid. You are still far from being officially called a hero.

Right now, like your seniors, you don’t even know what your strengths are and what makes you special.

I can’t even use my ability properly because I don’t know that myself.

“Anyway, you don’t know, but I keep getting news.”

“That’s why you were able to say such confident things.”

“If so, did you think I would be making predictions in a crazy sh*t logic?”

“That’s not true. What kind of person is Master?”

“Stop the strange flattery. I really hate that.”

“Isn’t that flattery? I mean this very sincerely.”

When you say that, you are even more like flattery, my disciple.

Is it because the character Iris is set up so lightly?

If you casually say something serious like that, you will always perceive it as a joke.

I feel unfair, but what can I do?

That’s why his usual behavior leads to misunderstandings.

“The owner. Are you alive?”

“… What. The herbalist is here. I managed to get into the city in this chaos.”

By the way, people in this city know me as a herbalist who lives in the mountains.

He told me that he lives in the mountains, so he even made a job for me.

Thanks to that, he didn’t arouse much suspicion whenever he entered the city.

As a bonus, Iris has one more job called collecting herbs.

Of course, if the other disciples knew that I was being treated like an herbalist, they would probably make all sorts of fuss.

It’s not that they’re going through all that hard work to get treated like this.

I will serve you wholeheartedly, so I’m sure they’ll try to go with you or kidnap you.

“Were there any monsters on the way? The outskirts of the city have become hell.”

“No, I didn’t see it. I thought the city was on fire because I could only see smoke on the way there. But when I came back, they said that monsters had invaded.”

“You are lucky. If I had come a little earlier, I would have stepped on the threshold of the underworld or just passed over it.”

I’m sure I would have pulled out a direct ticket to the road to the underworld. Not me, but the monsters.

I’m not as good as Master, but I also have the skills to be called a hermit master.

Iris is also a monster that catches sledgehammers, but catching flies is more difficult by my standards.

“I don’t know what kind of mess this is. Demons appearing even in such a remote place. There are not many people.”

“Still, the damage didn’t seem that great.”

“Be careful with your words. If other people hear it, they may be blinded.”

What are you going to do? That’s true.

Looking at it, dozens of people in the city seem dead or injured.

However, that level is not really a medicine or a blessing out of misfortune, it’s just a blessing itself.

In a while, a large city will be completely destroyed by monsters.

And even if we can’t, there will be tens of thousands of casualties.

I’m not sure about the owner of this store, and the people here in the city.

They were lucky enough to live on the frontier and survive.

“Sorry. Anyway, did the guards risk their lives to stop it?”

“Inside, the guards did their best. But not outside.”

“If so, how did the mercenaries come by luck?”

“No. A warrior has appeared. And he killed all the monsters.”

Oh, here comes your story, disciple.

But why do you flinch and hide behind you?

Aren’t you very proud of the title of warrior?

“You mean the warrior? Isn’t that the hero I know?”

“Yes. Beings chosen by God to scatter light and justice on this land.”

“I see. But were there any warriors active around here? I’m hearing it for the first time.”

“It’s our first time, too. I’ve never heard of a rumor that a hero came around here.”

“That means….”

“A new hero was born. A moment full of fear and malice in this city. God has given us the light of salvation. It’s truly awe-inspiring.”

Well. I don’t know if that’s something to be thrilled about.

Someone said that because the number of evil people increased, so many warriors appeared.

Though they like it because it opened a way for them to live.

I’d like to think about it the other way around.

To the extent that God and the world send not one but many warriors.

That means that something unusual is about to happen.

So wouldn’t it be better to be nervous and prepare for what’s next?

“You seem to have come to sell herbs again in this chaos.”

“That’s because I live quietly deep in the mountains. Necessary… I don’t know if we can get it, but if we don’t sell it quickly, the herbs will spoil, so there’s nothing we can do about it.”

“I don’t think so. Coincidentally, I also needed herbs, and it turned out well.”

There are a lot of injured people, so you will need herbs to treat them.

Usually, when it comes to medicinal herbs, they are sold at a pretty good price.

At times like this, supply can’t keep up with demand, so it doesn’t matter if you charge more.

I’m sorry for the people in the city, but shouldn’t we make a profit at a time like this?

Even though it seems like a small amount of money, this is quite money.

“I think you poured in a little more today?”

“I am also a merchant, but I have a minimum conscience. With so many people getting hurt, wouldn’t the price of things made from herbs naturally go up? It’s according to that, so take it.”

Ohhh…. Conscience is a merchant who does not sell.

From a moral point of view, it is 100 points, but from a professional point of view, it is a bread point.

Well, it’s not like I’m losing money, so I immediately took the money and headed elsewhere.

The first thing you need to buy is, of course, a ring for your master.

I was worried that the store selling accessories might have been destroyed.

Fortunately, the building was intact as if it had not been attacked by monsters.

I was wondering if things would work out fortunately, but I got into a fight with the owner of the place.

“Stop talking nonsense. Don’t you know that these accessories become sh*t after a war? It doesn’t make sense to raise the price when it would not be enough even if the price was lowered.”

“Oh, I don’t know! My whole house has been blown away, so I won’t sell it for that price. If you don’t like it, don’t buy it!”

Well, there are all these bastards. The customer is the king, but the merchant is the king?

If it’s the same as the original, yes, I won’t buy it. f*ck you bastard and would have turned

But the ring he was selling was the most suitable accessory for Master.

It’s quite annoying to give up and get stepped on, and to buy it almost doubles the price.

It’s not like there’s no money in hand, so it’s a situation that has no choice but to worry.

Should I give money and buy a ring, then go out at night and stomp on it like a dog and take the money back?

I don’t think it really matters, but do you really do that?

Tok!-

“Now, here is the amount you want. I paid for it, so the ring is mine now?”

“Eh?”

“Huh?”

A pocket is placed in front of the owner of the accessory, and someone snatches the ring from his hand.

While the owner eagerly checked the coins inside.

I looked at the woman who suddenly appeared in front of me.

She changed her appearance a lot and hid her feelings very well, but if you look closely, it’s obvious.

“… How did you know I was here?”

“Well? How would you know? Whoops.”

“….”

“Somehow I found out. Please change your seat.”

Saying that, the woman turned her body around.

When I follow him, Iris is uh uh uh? She does and she rushes behind me.

Arriving at a deserted place, a woman who has been sneaking around slowly lowers her hood.

Knock!-

The first thing that catches her eye is the fluffy fox ears.

As the glittering golden waterfall pours down behind you, a rather welcoming face is revealed.

“It’s been a while.”

“… Okay. Long time no see.”

My first six stars and the one I poured the most affection into.

A character with the title of ‘Sword Champion’ and with extreme melee dealing ability.

The first student opens her mouth with a fairly thick smile.

“Disciple, Garam is meeting Master.”
