Chapter 020. I know when I go

“How come it seems to be bigger than before.”

The party revisited the inn that had collapsed during Drake’s raid in the past.

The inn, which had been completely destroyed at the time, had been restored and transformed into a better look.

“Come on, fifty… … . her! Who is this! Aren’t you Master Aaron!”

The innkeeper recognized Aaron as soon as the group entered and made a fuss.

After the Drake raid, the Baron gave the affected villagers a large sum of money as promised.

He saved lives and even repaired the damage, so Odd Haken’s family members couldn’t help but be happy.

“Give me two rooms. The four of us will stay.”

“oh! There was also Master Zeke! hahahaha! What are the two rooms? I’ll give you four, so use one!”

The owner smiled broadly and handed over four bronze keys.

“Go ahead and unpack your bags and let me know if you need anything.”

“Thank you for being so welcoming.”

“What are you saying! I am truly grateful. Can’t you do something for the lifesaver? Food, alcohol, and bath water. Everything is ready. Of course, everything is free, so don’t worry about the cost.”

“Well then, please start with your meal. Everyone must have been hungry after running all day.”

“great! We will prepare the best food for you!”

The owner entered the kitchen with a smile on his face.

“Your father must have spent a lot of money. I look at you and see that you like me so much.”

Looking at the key in his hand, Zeke murmured.

Despite the unprecedented hospitality, his expression was not good.

From the guards at the entrance to the villagers and innkeepers we encountered on our way here.

Everyone was focused on Aaron.

Here, he was just an accessory following Aaron’s heels.

“When I caught Drake before, the damage was pretty great. It must have cost a lot of money.”

“Heh, what do I know whether these fools are dead or not? Better to build another annex with the money to spend on these guys.”

“Mineville is a town essential to the mining industry. My father didn’t invest money thoughtlessly.”

“Don’t try to teach me. Do you think I said that because I didn’t know?”

“huh. Wasn’t it because you didn’t know?”

Aaron asked with an innocent face.

He was treating Zeke as a child who knew nothing about the world.

“My lord, you are too much. There’s no way Master Zeke is an idiot who doesn’t know that.”

Before Zeke could answer anything, Rhaast offered a helping hand.

Aaron stroked his chin as if thinking for a moment, then nodded.

“Um, is that so? I’m sorry, Zeke. I misunderstood… … .”

“Shut up, both of you!”

Zeke shouted with a blushing face and went up the stairs with an angry step.

“young master!”

Viktor couldn’t bring himself to get angry at Aaron, and after shooting Raast, he hurriedly chased after Zeke.

“Let’s go. Dragon Slayer.”

When the son-in-law became quiet, Rhaast jingled the key.

Aaron grinned and snatched a key.

“OK.”

* * *

The inn’s service was impeccable.

After washing off the dust with warm water and being treated to a hearty meal, the party quickly fell asleep enjoying the warmth and fullness.

A few hours after the party fell asleep. Aaron’s room.

The lock on the tightly closed door opened with a dull metal sound.

kiik-

Entering his room was a strange man in armor.

The man carefully closed the open door and sneaked up to Aaron’s bed.

“It’s too late.”

Just as the man was about to reach out to Aaron, his eyes flashed open.

The man flinched at the unexpected reaction and stepped back.

“If you’re awake, can you give me some sign? I thought my liver was falling.”

“Is that an excuse?”

Aaron raised his eyebrows and removed the blanket.

He had already put on his clothes and armor and was ready to go out.

“I was just going to close my eyes, but I fell asleep. They used good beds here.”

The man, Rhaast, averted his gaze as if he were embarrassed.

In fact, he had an appointment to come to Aaron’s room before midnight.

I was too bored to wait, so I lay down on the bed for a while, but I was late because I fell asleep.

“I don’t hate you if you can’t speak.”

Aaron shook his head and got out of bed.

“By the way, where did you invite me to go at this late hour?”

Rhaast quickly changed the topic.

Aaron only said he had somewhere to go with him, but he didn’t tell me where he was going.

“I will know when I go.”

“Is there anyone in Mineville to meet?”

“I will know when I go.”

“… … .”

Rhaast didn’t ask anymore.

It seemed that he had no intention of talking about it now.

After a while, the two left the inn and headed straight to the west gate of the village.

“stop. where are you going… … young master?”

The vigilante guarding the west gate recognized Aaron and made a surprised expression.

“What are you doing here at this hour?”

“I’m going to go for a walk.”

“A walk?”

“okay. It’s a bit frustrating to stay in the village.”

“uh… … .”

The two guards looked at each other with puzzled faces.

Mineville, as a rule, does not let people out west after sunset.

The east side of the village is relatively safe because the mountains are not steep and people come and go frequently, but the west side is the road to the center of the Tmolin Mountains, so monsters run rampant after the sun goes down.

“I know what your concerns are. It’s just going around for a while, so don’t worry too much.”

“No, Bocchan. But leaving now… … .”

“That’s true. Bocchan is fine. Do you want to get out of the way or pass out?”

As the men stood hesitantly, Rhaast untied the sheath and shook it.

It was an unspoken pressure that if he didn’t get out of the way, he would treat him with a stick.

“Ah, I see. Instead, you should come back soon.”

“Sure.”

As the men moved aside, Aaron leisurely passed through the fence and left the village.

When I left the village and headed west, it soon became dark and a black forest appeared.

“I didn’t expect it to happen, but I didn’t expect it to come out to the west. You know that this place is full of monsters, right?”

Rhaast looked at Aaron and said.

Now, if you take a few more steps, the darkness that even the lights of the town can’t reach spreads out.

Even at this moment, there are countless monsters waiting for people to come out of the village, so I wondered what the hell they were thinking.

“I’m going to walk for a while, so take good care of me.”

Even the place Aaron was heading was not a man-made road, but a wooded forest.

“Where are you going, entering a place that is not even a road at night like this?”

Rhaast grumbled and lit the perch he had prepared.

It was only when the orange light lit up his son-in-law that he felt like he could breathe.

“To cure your illness.”

“yes?”

“Do you know what an elixir is?”

Aaron looked back at Raast with a rather serious face.

Raast tilted his head, wondering if he had heard something wrong.

“Did you just say elixir?”

“okay.”

“Could it be the elixir I’m going to get now?”

Elixir. A legendary elixir made by ancient alchemists a thousand years ago to heal heroes.

It was an item that could not be easily obtained no matter how much money you had, as all diseases disappeared with just one sip and the body would not get sick for the rest of its life.

“No, it’s not an elixir.”

Aaron shook his head.

Raast, who was full of anticipation, said yes and shrugged his shoulders.

“But why did you ask? I am not kidding.”

“Even if it’s not an elixir, it can have a similar effect.”

“Where in the world is that?”

“I’ll go over there for a bit. Give me the torch.”

Aaron said indifferently and held out his hand.

Rhaast smiled and handed over the torch.

“Do you want to take the lead?”

“no. You can’t use a sword if you’re holding a torch.”

Aaron shook his head and held the torch high above his head.

Dozens of pupils flashed vermilion in the light that spread everywhere.

“hmm. I wondered where I was enjoying it.”

Sureureung!

Rhaast pulled out his sword.

A mass-produced longsword brought in place of the broken sword.

It wasn’t as good as the original sword, but it was better than nothing.

“Krrr… … .”

The main character with sparkling eyes is none other than the gray wolf.

They appeared out of the darkness as if they knew that the undercover was uncovered.

“How many?”

“How about ten?”

Rhaast looked around and said.

They must have been starving all winter, and all of them had poisonous spirits.

It seemed like he wouldn’t back down easily just by killing one or two.

“Can you?”

“What do you see me as? Even with this tidy bare hands… … .”

“Kwaaang!”

As soon as Rhaast opened his mouth, the one standing in the vanguard screamed and charged.

“Keep it!”

“Keew!”

Rhaast’s words weren’t just bluffing.

He wielded a jokjok sword, killing wolves in one blow, and sometimes smashed their heads with his fists and feet.

“Turisaz.”

Aaron was not alone.

He also lowered his torch to the ground and used rune magic and a sword to slay the wolf Duot.

The pack of wolves, which numbered dozens, turned into cold corpses in just a few minutes.

[Your level has risen. (7→8)]

The level up message appeared when the battle was over, probably at the end of the experience.

Hot energy spread from his heart, his shortness of breath subsided, and the aftereffects of the rune magic completely disappeared.

“Boss, have you ever subdued monsters?”

“No, there is not. I’ve been training in swordsmanship for less than a week, so how can I subdue monsters?”

“Isn’t it?”

Rhaast nodded with a disappointed face.

He clearly saw Aaron fighting the wolf.

Aaron accurately predicted the path of the wolves rushing at him, and used their power against him to efficiently swing his sword.

When Rhaast turned to help, they were already corpses with their heads cut off and their entrails spilling out.

‘I peed when I first went to practice training.’

Most of the combat training of the sons of nobles ends in fearful cries.

However, Aaron did not lose his breath even though he experienced a real battle for the first time in his life.

It was truly a terrifying talent.

“The smell of blood lingers, so other guys will come soon. Let’s go quickly.”

“huh.”

Aaron roughly wiped the blood off his sword and raised the torch again.

* * *

“Here.”

after a while The place where Aaron stopped was a cliff that was far away.

“Here?”

Raast lowered his stance and approached the edge of the cliff.

From the middle of how high it was, there was only black darkness where even the light of the torches could not reach.

“What do you mean here?”

“If you go down to a height of about five times your height, a small cave will come out. There is something you want in that cave.”

“Are you asking me to go there?”

“don’t worry. I will go with you too.”

“You say you climb a cliff?”

“no. Of course you have to carry it.”

Aaron looked at Raast as if asking something obvious.

Raast imagined pushing him off the cliff for a moment.

“Did you just imagine pushing me away?”

“yes. yes? no! It can’t be.”

Rhaast, who unconsciously nodded, flinched and waved his hand.

Aaron smiled and took a rope out of his bag.

“There is no gain without pain and risk. You have to take this risk to save your life.”

“… … .”

“What are you doing? Aren’t you going to tie it up?”

“I think we’re going too far for our lives.”

“At least I got the thickest one in the warehouse. It’s stronger than it looks, so don’t be too scared.”

“Uh huh, who said you were scared? Give it to me.”

At the word that he was frightened, Rhaast got angry and snatched the rope.

He tied one end to a rock overhanging the cliff and tied it to the other around his and Aaron’s waists.

“If you fall while going down, don’t resent me.”

“Even if I don’t resent you, your sister will resent you.”

“… … sh*t.”

“what? sh*t? Is there anything this guy can’t say to his lord?”

“Come on, let’s go! Hold tight!”

Rhaast pulled the rope tied to the rock a couple of times before jumping down the cliff.
