The Man Picked up by the Gods

... three, I guess.

Slime's story slowed me down a lot, and I noticed a presence that followed me as I was walking down a dark night lane.

In a place where there's no crowd of time like this. A fragmented human being vacated a certain distance. Still going in the same direction as me at a certain speed.... How easy to understand. It just doesn't seem like you're an amateur at all.

Considering the three followers as a team, they are collaborative. There seems to be no escape way to the back unless you defeat someone. It looks ragged before, but ambush somewhere?

Keep going and you'll get to the North Gate. There are people in the Guard, and if they're after me, it's only before they set me up. Then let's make sure before we get there.

Break the next corner to the right, hurry and turn the next corner to the right again. I hear voices right after I jump in.

"Did you find out?

"I didn't see such a bare gesture..."

"... its the corner!

"Oops..."

When one of the men screamed, rough footsteps approached.

Hurry up and run...

"... this way!

I'm trying to follow you everywhere... or if it's normal, I think I know where you are even in a situation where you should have lost sight of yourself.

... There is no one around but chasers. There are no tall buildings that seem to overlook large areas. Then... let's go that way.

"Whoa, what about the kid?

"I've been on the run forever. I hid somewhere now. Should be around here somewhere..."

"You must've definitely noticed they're after you."

"Otherwise, you're catching him right away. Running into a place like this..."

"Damn! It's hard."

Northeast of Giml. This corner, close to the slam, is hard to say beautiful in flattery. Obstacles are found on the roads, and daylight cloth is found on the roads.

In the dark at night, thanks also to the child's body, we are missing this position over there. Looks like our guys who were ambushing have joined us, and it's time to...

"Fortunately, there are no people's eyes either. The numbers are up here too, wih for the smudges!?

"How gu!?

"Get down! It's an arrow!

"'Teleport'"

"Chip! Over there!?

"Become, even from here!?

"No way my buddy!?

"'Teleport'"

Release an arrow painted with Medicine Slime's paralysis poison (immediate effect) on your hands and feet while traveling in a short distance transfer through an obstacle, and you'll quickly do an easy job of controlling it.

"Ugh..."

"Damn, you poison arrow..."

"I can't move properly for the time being. The poison, I checked it and it's so strong."

"Huh! You shitty kid!

"Oh, my God!

"What were you trying to do to me? Purpose?"

Get close to the men who can't move and point the spear at one.

"Heh... don't think you can just do this... but if you give me the removebird and the money I earned, forgive me and it's hot! Hot! Stop it!

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

I left the fireball out of the spear for now. I wouldn't guess, but the wind that pushed the cool air over makes you feel that much heat.

"Ah."

Knock off flying objects reflexively.

"Ki!?

"This. Right."

It was a dark colored owl-like warcraft.

...... ligret oul. The nails have a poison that makes them hypersensitive to nerves, causing severe pain combined with wounds that sharp nails can eat deeply into the flesh when grasping enemies. It's even more nocturnal, so you're a good warcraft at hunting enemies quietly in the dark...

I found out who my legs and nails were because they would also be ingredients for the medicine. But it doesn't live around here, so it's pretty much confirmed by the submissive. Were you making a scene to make this guy punch you?

"Become!? How."

"I knocked it off normally, but the sky was on guard."

The current blow seems to have broken his feathers, and a man who sees his submissive rolling on the ground screams.

I would have watched. At the time you were following me exactly as I was supposed to be invisible, I could have predicted to some extent that there was an obedient demon. I didn't know what that was. If you were flying high in the sky with this color, you wouldn't look like a boulder.

"Hmm, you're here."

"Pyrrolo!"

"Right here!

"There they are! Don't move!"

"Guard!?

"Why at a time like this!?

"Hey Lyoma! Are you all right!"

"Guildmaster? Why are you here?

The guard can tell because he saw a gap while he was on the run and flew the limo bird. but why even Mr. Wogan?

"I knew you were safe… I saw a guard (these guys) chasing a remover bird on the way home"

So he came here knowing it was me.

"I'm sorry for your concern"

"Honestly I wasn't so worried..."

Excuse me, I'd like you to explain the situation.

After this, I was questioned in the guard's quarters.

Next morning.

"Thank you for your help"

"Don't come any more."

I go to the store to thank the man in the guard who looks sturdy and has trouble knowing if he is a good guide or a vegetarian.

Last night was just late at night, plus raids and interviews, so I can't overlook going back to the abandoned pit on my own again from there! And we were supposed to stay overnight in the guard's quarters.

By the way, the room is a decent room, not a cabin. They say it's a room that is used to temporarily retain people who are not sinful but cannot be freed, or better not. Sufficient beds were also available.

"Good morning!

"Good morning, shopkeeper. Much earlier today, sir."

"Good morning, Store Manager. Can I help you?

When I arrived at the store, I first found Mr. Carla and Mr. Leelyn in the break room.

Explaining last night, at the stage of the raid.

"Store manager, we decide that the matter should be shared in its entirety. Please wait while we gather the shopkeepers."

and Mr. Carla leaves the room, and in a few minutes all the employees gather in the break room.

"Uh, are you talking to me ~?"

"You're not fired or anything..."

"Guys, don't worry about that one. Store manager, please"

Once again, explaining what happened last night increases different tensions.

"That's why. As you can see, I'm safe with no scratches, but if you guys are going out, be as careful as you can on the road with as many people as you can. Then Mr. Faye and Mr. Leelyn. You two might get more security work."

Make sure the two of them nodded and showed a copy, and continue further.

"As for the future, we are also looking at increasing the number of security personnel. There was an Adventurer Guild Alliance Guild Master at the scene as I told you earlier... everything. It seems there is a regular meeting between Guild Masters at the Commercial Guild today, and they are going to set up an opportunity to discuss it there.

So I go to the commercial guild around noon. [M] Mr. Carla or Mr. Callum, I'd like you to escort me. "

"Then I'll come. Callum asked me to come to the store."

"Understood."

"Then one last time, Mr. Sherma"

"Something to me?

"When I asked the Alliance Master about the handicrafts to bring, he asked me for something for lunch, so I'd like to use the kitchen."

"If that's what you mean, I'll help you, too. Let's make lunch together."

"That's all from me. The results of the consultation with the Alliance Master will be followed. Gentlemen, if you notice anything, don't hesitate to report anything trivial.... It's going to be noisy again, thanks!

'Yes!'

Once the employees have been notified, the store will be ready to open. I cooked with Mr. Sherma.

"Come in."

"Excuse me."

After being rarely waited in a separate room when visiting a commercial guild at noon, he was guided to an unusual room.

There is one long and large desk indoors. It has a familiar Alliance Master on its front and left and right, respectively, and me and Mr. Carla are prompted to take their seats in front.

"Well, you know why I was called here today...... rice first than that!

"Wogan, you're a guy..."

"Isn't that nice? The meeting's over, and now it's a private gathering. You can eat more or less."

Remove and distribute the dishes prepared from the item box.

"Alliance Master"

"Call me by name here. The Alliance Master was confused."

"Bye, Mr. Wogan. It's bowel soup and bread."

"Whoa! That looks delicious."

"My cook made it. And then Mr. Griciera is here, and Mr. Taylor is here."

"Oh, is mine a burger? It's kind of like a festival. Sounds slightly soft..."

"This is bread with dried grapes, crisp like pie... all going to go with tea"

Mr. Griciera has weak teeth and is soft. Taylor Branch Manager is like a light tea treat because the food is thin. and each had received an order from Mr. Wargan, would this have been a good idea?

"Mmmm... I can't smell this bread, seeds (...)"

"So is this one."

"I made today's bread from yeast."

The seeds mentioned by the two people are seeds of plants that work the same way as the "East fungus" used to make bread, and are sold under the name “bread seeds” as the name suggests. The only way to use it is to add the contents of the broken seeds to the dough. Because it is user-friendly and easy to store and transport, it is commonly used in baking.

By contrast, the natural yeast I used for today's bread. Even so, even the East fungus originally only cultured natural fungus suitable for fermentation, and the seeds are natural because they are naturally grown plant seeds... let's put that aside. In the meantime, here is a yeast made by adding water to wheat and raisins and fermenting them naturally.

"Because I've been able to afford money and time lately and unlike when I was in the woods, I can buy and order ingredients in stores. I can do things I've never been able to do before."

Yeast making generally takes about a week, until then you need to stir and hand the contents once a day. It was hard to get my hands on in a previous life when working hours were indeterminate and suddenly I could not get home for days, and it was a yearning from a previous life, as was charcoal grilling.

That came out of the city. Now it's easy to get all the tools and ingredients together. Except for the money you shop for from store profits, which you set aside for employee salaries and emergencies, you get enough money just to be on hand, and the time is a life where you can go home every day to work as an executive. If so, there was no choice not to get my hands on it anymore.

My life is changing, like buying ingredients and making them out of reagents to find out what else is working and what the ingredients are.

Like in my previous life, I don't just live back and forth from work to home!!

"What a good face. She was attacked yesterday, but she's a very relaxed girl."

"And this is a different story."

"Totally......"

But for that matter, it doesn't seem like a problem.

Well, what's the problem?

"What do you think when you get attacked on a night lane without anyone's help? - Talk. I told you not to worry about me."

"That's a theory of results, isn't it? They didn't see the rheuma on the spot."

"I don't care how much we're trying to help, but if he's willing to help, he can only take extra care of us."

"Heck.... and well these two were worried you'd freak out about yesterday and tell them to fold up the store"

"That's what you're saying. I wanted to know what it felt like to be in direct danger."

"I didn't think you'd care."

"That came with a lot of help so far, and I'll stop because they attacked me! Then you will be too selfish. Even though I have employees who work downstairs, I'm going to let them get lost in the streets, and I was going to tell them what's going on today."

"Okay, okay, okay."

With that said, Mr. Grisiera laughs as if he were out there.

"Then it's a nasty story already. Lyoma, you need to hold on to your defenses for a while longer. So I'll turn on the cat."

"And you say?

"The guy who attacked me, he said he'd be gone soon."

"Ever since our bad reviews came out, we've been doing our own research. As a result, I got eyes on the guy who was spreading rumors and abetting the crime, which was good until... unfortunately, I dazzled my whereabouts yesterday. I immediately broadened my search, but the first thing that came in was information that you were attacked."

"You're the ones who attacked you yesterday, check it out, you just got to this city two days ago. Someone told me about you, the kid with the big money and the removable bird. So, the look on that guy's face doesn't match the guy he was eyeing over here..."

That means...

"Are you sure you see him as the same person?

"That's a good chance. From rumors circulated before, the guy who escaped knows about Atashi and his relationship. If you had been targeted, you would have manned a little to protect you even if you turned to yourself."

"If you skip personal emotions, you can't usually neglect them if you're left to the Duke's people to" ask for this one. "Just in case."

"I mean, he made me get away with it more easily."

"That's what we see. But enough to disappear into a suspicious arrow tip and do such a small job. You're not coming back. If you're going to come back, you're going to do it in a way that's not suspicious. Well, maybe we just couldn't afford to do that... but we're not gonna let goodbye get away with it easily.

You may have a point, but you're not a normal (...) kid. I think you have enough power to protect yourself. That's why I want you to do everything in your power to protect the store and yourself. We'll do whatever we can with the killer. "

You expect that runaway guy to betray me?

"We've already put together a search team at WellAnna's party with Meerya, Jeff, and a rapin who can use space magic to make them chase the steps."

"Well, you'll be a pro on that path over there, and there's no guarantee you'll get caught for sure.... Lyoma, are you all right? You."

Mr. Griciera asks me, I'll think about it.

"First of all, we just want to protect the store."

"Don't worry. I didn't say I wouldn't give you any help either. I spoke lightly to Gordon and Shale, both of whom are unsuitable for searching, but sure of their arms, and both of whom have a local reputation. It would be perfect for a store escort. And Jeff's guy recommended that we trust him. He's not registered to the guild, so I can't tell him anything."

In addition to Mr. Faye and Mr. Leelyn, those two. I don't know if Jeff recommended it, but it's hard to even think of Jeff recommending someone who's clearly powerless. I just have to put it on hold for now, but will the store be somewhat more secure...

"Mr. Carla, why don't you also consider working with the Guard?

"It's the anxiety factor that I don't know the size of the person...... that's plentiful considering the size of the store. But more than that, why don't you put an escort on the manager?

I don't need that. Because the disadvantages are enormous considering when you say no.

When I say no. I mean, if I can't fathom them. The choice to make is to escape from the spot, but if anyone was there, they wouldn't be able to escape that freely. Spatial magic can't take you, and it's hard to leave you behind. I mean, if it's enough to leave someone behind, I choose to fight alone or run away from the beginning.

"And I'm talking about the other guy, he's human, right?

"It's possible to use an obedient demon, but you must be basically human"

"Then you'd better be alone"

There is no such thing as a warcraft on Earth. All my fixed moves are mindful of dealing with people. The one I'm most used to is interpersonal combat.

"I used to train with my grandfather all the time, so humans or human-shaped warcraft are the easiest to fight"

"... seems to have a track record so far..."

"Wogan is guaranteed strength, too."

"Don't worry, I'm more certain of my eyes than yours."

The conversation thus proceeded to specific defensive measures, post-processing in the event of a raid, and finally was given two documents by Taylor Branch Manager.

"I hereby acknowledge that I have enough strength to handle slime and removable birds... What is this?

"I admit that you can handle your obedience properly. This is a memoir to the effect that your store uses Warcraft, but business is under the jurisdiction of a commercial guild."

Proof seems to be guild cards, so paperwork that is rarely made. But they're both signed and stamped by Taylor Branch Manager, so it could be of some use if you had them, and so on.

Branch Manager... I wonder if you care if you got yourself involved in this...
