Isekai ni Kita Boku wa Kiyoubinbode Subaya-sa Tayorina Tabi o Suru

The Frontline and the Village

The sounds of roasting meat. Lively talk and laughter.

It was not what you might expect to hear on the frontlines. Well, the reason for all of it was me, I suppose.

Adlus had all of the Adventurers gather around and we shared the supplies. Today was special, and Adlus declared that wed have a barbecue. Some of the boxes had wine in them, and so we enjoyed ourselves as the guards who were on watch duty glared angrily.

Danielas barrier also meant that the smell did not leak from the area. The unlucky few who were excluded from the party had to stand on the wall and kick the snow.

Sorry that you have to stay out here in time like this.

Mister Asagi No, its part of the job.

Well, dont get too sulky. Eat this. I cooked it myself.

It looks pretty good.

It doesnt look good, it is good.

I went around like the good and considerate host that I was. And before I knew it, the sun had set. It had been a while since we had been able to get drunk. Those who could, went and collapsed in their tents, while others took turns guarding the walls. As for me, I activated Legs of the God Wolf and headed off to Namila Village. I couldnt help but be worried. And so I decided to check up on them and then come straight back.

I had regained most of my strength. Maybe I wasnt back completely, but as long as I maintained a normal speed, I could fly for a long time without really getting tired. And so it didnt take me too long to reach Namila Village.

The chiefs house was a little towards the back of the main square. I could see a dim light pouring from the windows. It was likely candles.

When I got closer to the house, I saw footprints on the snow. They came from the forest and went around the house once before going inside. Marcel and Silket. There were also soft voices and laughter coming from inside. They seemed to be getting on well.

And so I let out a whistle. The voices suddenly stopped and the door opened slowly.

Good evening. I came to check up on you.

Mister Asagi!

It was Silket who opened the door. Marcel was right behind her and holding a sword.

When I peeked in, Felz was sitting behind a chair and wrapped in a blanket.

Oh, its Mister Asagi.

Hey. I hope you were behaving yourself.

Yes!

I tapped my shoes on the ground, shaking off the snow, before stepping inside. Marcel let out a sigh of relief as she sheathed her weapon.

You gave me a fright!

Sorry. I kind of did come without a warning.

Exactly. But I suppose you were concerned about us. Thank you.

Silket said with a smile.

Well, I feel indebted to you. See?

Oh!

That looks delicious!

I opened the hollow bag and took out the grilled meat, vegetables and fish. Of course, they were from tonights barbecue. I had brought some with me to show my appreciation to them.

This is from the stuff your father prepared. I cooked it myself. Theres a lot, so eat up.

Thank you!

Thank you!

Felz and Marcel jumped on the meat. Silket looked a little started.

Uh, thank you. You really didnt have to

Its fine. Like I said, its thanks to you. Ill be watching outside, so you can take it easy and enjoy the food.

Thank you. I suppose I will.

I nodded and Silket headed to the table. After seeing her go, I went to the door and stepped outside. It was a clear, cloudless sky. There wasnt even any wind. Just a comfortable chill.

It was on such nights that goblins might lurk in the shadows. They might gather into a gang and attack this village once again. They would kill everyone. No. I wouldnt let such a thing happen. Never.

Phew

I sighed and then concentrated, spreading out Presence Detection. Like a crape, it spread out thin and wide.

Through the snowy fields and the forests.

As I was spreading it out so thin, I could not differentiate monsters from animals or people. I only knew if something was there.

Hmm

I inhaled the cold air through my nostrils. It did wonders for waking up your brain.

I guess thats it.

After searching for a while, I was unable to find anything suspicious. At least for now, there was nothing in this area. That was a great relief.

On such a cold night, the animals were all in their holes and the goblins were far away. Any that might be on the surface had been killed by the Adventurers

Besides, things were looking bad in the abandoned city. I doubted theyd be sending goblins out during this time.

Mister Asagi?

Uh, yeah?

We finished eating all the food Is something wrong?

I hadnt even noticed Silket opening the door. She was now looking at me with a curious expression.

No, its nothing. Theres nothing around here. So it should be fine for a while, dont worry.

Youre sure doing a lot for us.

Its really nothing. I should be thanking you.

I chuckled. And it was true.

Oh, heres some more food. Ill leave it for you. Take good care of him.

Of course. It pains me that we cant be out with the others during the battle. But rest assured that we will be fine.

Yes, Im counting on you. Well, good night.

I left a box with them and returned to the frontline. I was thinking about returning to the abandoned city tomorrow. I wanted to end this battle soon In fact, if I could launch an ambush, I would do it right away.

For Felz, and the village, and the citizens of the city. And even for the Queens Knight Goblin who died.

I wanted to end the goblin stampede.
