Whether our luck was good or bad, we were in the village by chance when an attack by the zealots happened. Well, the villagers were undoubtedly lucky though. However, it seems the stimuli was too strong for Akane-san. It was probably her first time seeing people kill each other right in front of her eyes when we killed the assailants, aside from the leader, with no questions asked.

「Akane-sama, what is the matter?」 「………… I-I’m alright.」

Lulu-chan was worried for Akane-san whose face paled from the shock she received.

「So the stimuli really was too strong for Akane-san, huh.」 「As she was forcibly summoned from a peaceful world, I believe that adapting to this world right away is difficult.」

Showing mercy to thieves is impossible in this world. The victims would increase just by overlooking them. In that case, one might think that arresting them would be good enough, but it’s less difficult to kill an opponent with weapons and uses magic than catching them.

I approached Akane-san, asking if she is alright.

「It’s alright to rest in the carriage if you aren’t feeling good.」 「……………… it’s fine.」

Akane-san shook her head.

「I know that even if we keep them alive here and arrest them, the attackers will be sentenced to death. That’s the common practice in this world.」 「You don’t have to force yourself to accept it. Living as a person of this world in both body and mind was difficult even for me in the beginning. I do think that there are only a handful of people living in this world who wish to harm others.」 「But to live as an adventurer, this is unavoidable.」 「…… That’s how it is. That’s why I tried to be an artisan.」

When I said that about myself, Lulu-chan consoled me and Akane-san’s countenance looked slightly better. Japanese ethics detest the offense, but not the offender There are those that say so too. But Akane-san knows that it does not apply for this world.

「Akane-san, why don’t you try thinking about living as something other than adventurers?」 「Thank you very much. But, I’m alright now.」

Since Akane-san is behaving bravely, I left the follow-up to Lulu-chan.

There were zero victims because we were here, but I can’t guarantee that it will be zero with just the security golem and Barrier MD. If there had been victims in the village, Akane-san’s shock would likely be much larger.

「For now, the request isn’t over yet, but it might be better if you think about it a little bit more.」 「Takumi-sama, Laeva, let us head to the next village first. Please talk inside the carriage.」 「Un, got it, Sophia.」

Tsubaki ran at outlandish speeds once we got on. Having encountered the attackers, we’re running to next town in a rush to install security golems and Barrier MDs. We advanced, from the southern end of Valkyra Kingdom to the eastern end while following the national border. It was estimated to take several months, but the entire journey will end in one month thanks to Tsubaki.

And so, while thinking up ideas for magic devices, we set up security golems and Barrier MDs in villages and towns along the national border.
