“ ……. ”

“I'm Smith! The White Captain saved your life many times! ”

“Smith?”

“Yes! Smith! ”

I remember hearing the name Smith. A young soldier, not as old as me.

Except for Tarien, who was probably the youngest soldier out of the 7th Special Forces.

Then why are they here, thieves who rob others?

“Why are you here? ”

“Th-that was... khhh... I had no choice but to flee from the pursuit! ”

Smith shouts in a sobbing voice, as if it were unfair.

Yes, only me and my men are officially survivors of Panybull. There are only those who have escaped informally. And Smith was one of the latter.

“Is that why they were dressed as Allies? A fugitive like you? ”

“Well, yeah. But you know the White Captain! I had to run for my life! ”

I don't blame the fugitive. Those who are not prepared for war are the ones who are expedited.

‘You were scared, but... ’

That's all I understand.

“Why did you become a thief with your killing hands? If you run, you can live quietly. ”

A lifetime of harm to others?

“Why were you stealing cowardly, Smith? ”

“Hiic!”

As he raises his sword, Smith panics and wraps his arms around his head.

Smith is completely terrified. You're gonna die.

A weaker one than a Goblin.

It felt like a miracle he survived the seventh Special Forces.

“Hah, so what are you going to do? Are you going to keep stealing? ”

“W-what can I do to live with that...? ”

Kuang!

Hoodluck.

You heavily strike the tree next to you with your left hand, without raising your sword, and shake it as if it were breaking right now.

“I'm not going to kill you for fate. ”

“Ship, White Captain……. ”

“Go. Don't ever do this again. ”

“... Just know that I couldn't help myself. ”

Smith runs through the bushes, leaving the horse to the end of the spear.

When I saw him running away to live, my heart ached weakly. Did I do a good job? Do I really have the right to blame him?

“Kaiyan!”

“Oh, Mr. Barnes. ”

“Gas! You cleaned it all up all by yourself? Even though it's class B... You really... ”

Barnson hurries towards me, panicking at the mercenaries who are lying in front of me.

“Fantastic!”

“Yes?”

“Amazing! This should be A-rated in no time. ”

I was wondering if you'd seen me release Smith, but fortunately, I didn't see his reaction.

To turn the conversation around, you point your hand at the arrow in his leg.

“Is it okay if I get hit by an arrow? ”

“This? You'll get better in no time. Haha!”

I can't believe you're gonna stick a needle in an iron spill leg.

Barneson is a delightful man, which is hard to understand.

“Ha, let's clean this up later and start by treating the wounds. and others.”

“Okay. Hey! Let's stop cleaning up and get some rest! ”

At Barneson's cry, mercenaries who were gathering the thieves' bodies into one place settle down.

“No, how long has it been since the war ended that they've had bandits? ”

“I know. That's why they're after us. ”

“Kaiyan, he saved my life. ”

“That's... ugh! Hey, take it easy! ”

Seeing those who were chatting hard with their mouths and removing the arrows, I slightly asked them to buy some potions from the shop and distribute them.

‘... there's going to be a problem, right? ’

If you give them expensive recovery potions, they will definitely be suspicious.

‘I'm sick of doubts. ’

Fortunately, mercenaries took a strange smelling herb out of their pockets and applied it to the wound.

“Mr. Vissel, what is that? ”

“Hmm? Kaiyan, don't you know Raselcho? ”

“Laselzo? I think I've heard of him... Ah! ”

I remembered. Whenever Jeff and Max were injured, I applied the rachel to the wound. It's hard to get treatment in the ward.

I also used it once in the beginning of the war, but I forgot because I was able to heal all injuries with a level up after waking up as a player.

“Herbs that can stop bleeding, right? ”

“Huh? You don't seem to know, do you? That's right."

Laselzo was a herb that had only a hemostatic effect and did not directly treat the wound, but had the advantage that it was readily available and affordable.

“But will that do? We'll have to move again tomorrow. ”

“Well, we've all been through this once or twice. You have to be patient to make money. ”

“Yes……. ”

I was about to answer Visel thinking that mercenaries are mercenaries.

‘Wait, Laselzo is an herb that's been in the continent for a long time. Shop window!’

I urgently called the shop because of the flashing thought.

If I think this is the right idea, I am more likely to sell Lasselcho in the store.

"Herb!"

[Lesser/Intermediate/Greater]

‘… Lesser. ’

[Lesser: Lassel, Liquorice, Tunia….]

Yeah, that one's at the front.

As the situation flowed as expected, I felt a sense of excitement as if magic had burst into my mind.

Finally, we learned one thing about the secret player system.

Are you saying the items you sell in the store are from the continent of Unicia? No! The store has items from the continent on it! Yes! "

The store has a huge list of UNESIAN items.

I've been wondering since the deputy knight in Tarien handed me the potion. How can it be the same?

The answer is this.

‘Then you can buy goods made in the continent at any time through the shop. ’

Maybe the Mazlo and Priya swordsmanship I've learned are from the continent of Unicia. Plus...

‘If you sell Lasselcho that existed before the disaster, you're more likely to be selling items from the past or the Ancient Age. ’

Ancient artifacts or ancient craftsmanship.

What if you were to sell those mysterious items in a store that were only found through Dungeon exploration?

“Kaiyan? What are you thinking? ”

“Yes?”

When I thought about it, Visel woke me up shaking my shoulders.

“I couldn't answer your call. ”

“Oh, it's nothing. ”

I think I'd come up with an amazing idea if I thought about it a little more.

I quickly focused on the shop again, but unfortunately I didn't think of it.

“H-I 'll clean up the bodies. ”

“Can you come with me later? ”

“A healthy person needs to move more. ”

I got up from my seat with regrets.

Even if you think again after you've lost focus, it's not a good idea.

‘Let's be satisfied that we have discovered a secret. ’

An important fact that the player system and the continent are very closely related.

Maybe God really did give me this ability.

Dalgric. Dalgric.

Day 4 from Vratan.

I finally made it through the woods and into the plains of Lewis.

Seeing the open plains beyond the stuffy forest that was blocking my view, I feel comfortable to the side of my mind.

“Ha, it's been a long time. ”

Katina, who has a cheerful personality, looks up at the plain and gives a small glance.

“Katina, have you ever been here? ”

“Yes... more than that, Kaiyan! Call me sister!”

“Yes? Oh, that's a bit……. ”

“Why? You don't age much! Are you ignoring me because I'm old? ”

While Katina was shaking her neck, Barneson put his hand on my shoulder.

“Khh, Katina's having a hard time, isn't she? ”

“You barnson! I did what? ”

“You have to explain that in words, okay? ”

“What? Come here! ”

‘Ha.’

They could be called a delightful mercenary, or they might not be of the right age.

Katina and Barnson fought for less than a year while traveling northwest. That doesn't mean we actually fought, but it was a little bit of a prank between close friends.

In a way, they are really great people.

Oh, man!

“Come on, Barnson! Katina! Both of you, calm down! Have you forgotten where this place is? Come here, guys. ”

Visel tears them apart and summons the mercenaries.

“As you all know, the plains of Lewis are a very dangerous place. ”

Gulp.

The sound of someone's tipping echoes loudly.

“Son of a bitch. But don't be so nervous! We have Kaiyan, Class B mercenary! ”

“Haha! Yes! We had a Kaiyan. ”

“I trust you! ”

Are these guys mercenaries? ’

The First Principle of Mercenary I heard from Uncle Jeff was clearly not to trust anyone.

How long have we known each other to trust me like this? If I was a class B mercenary at last, I could have died when the bandits attacked.

“Well... let's just get in the wagon and watch out for two more people in the plains. You won't get ambushed just like that. Well, who wants to go first? ”

Katina raises her hand high in Bissel's question.

“Then Barneson and I will go first. ”

“Huh? No, Katina, what about me? I want to take a break! ”

“Quiet, you bastard! ”

The rebellious Barnson is eventually dragged to the roof of the wagon, his collar caught in Katina's hand, and the wagon stops for a moment and starts to move again towards the plain of Lewis.

Dalgric. Dalgric.

It's been about an hour since I entered the plains.

Knock, knock.

Barneson, standing guard on the roof of the wagon, knocks on the wagon and signals.

“Barnson! What's going on? ”

“Well, Vicel! I think I need to come out for a minute. ”

I don't feel anything. What's going on? '

Asking questions, I opened the door to the wagon and went out, and the stench pierced my nose.

The distinctive and pungent scent of human blood.

“Look over there. ”

Looking at the place where Barnson hides by his hand, there is a horrific look unfolding over the battlefield.

Dozens of bodies torn apart everywhere. And red blood scattered all over the place.

The mercenaries carefully move forward to identify the body.

“Is this... what monsters do? ”

“Maybe, right? ”

It looked like it was done by monsters, just like the mercenaries said, but it must have been because of the fierce experience of the battlefield.

“No, this is not what monsters do. ”

I could see the torn corpse everywhere and be sure. This was never the work of monsters.

“But Kaiyan, then who did? ”

“It looks like it was torn apart by force. Wouldn't it be hard if it wasn't for monsters? ”

“Yeah, look at this place. It's all bumpy. ”

The mercenaries are right. I would have thought it was a monster if I'd seen that. But there is one thing they missed.

You open your mouth slowly, gazing at the mercenaries.

“The corpse is in pieces, and there's no sign of it being eaten. ”

“ ……. ”

That's it.

A monster kills a human and then leaves? In the plains of Louise?

“They've been starving since the war ended, most of them. But it doesn't make sense to leave a body behind. ”

“... Then who the hell is it? ”

“I don't know about that. However.”

Ugh.

With his mouth clenched, he stares at the corpse from which all of its venomous limbs had been torn.

‘Smith.'

He survived as the youngest of the Seventh Special Forces.

The guy who ran scared, but struggled to make a living.

‘Why were you there? ’

If I had accepted him as ignorant, things would have changed if I had comforted him instead of being afraid.

“We have to find out what they are. Or let them show up. ”

It doesn't matter who committed these massacres for what reason.

It's just that the fact that they tore Smith's arm and leg off and made me notice angered me.

‘I'll do the same for you. ’
