I Became the Hero of the Warrior Party

39 – Episode 36: Port City Tilans – 1

We are moving by carriage to a place quite far from Felter Village.

The destination was the port city of Tillans.

To be precise, the expression “stopover” would be correct, but first of all, there was something to do there, so it was decided as the first destination.

To explain the reason for going there, it goes back to the guild a few days ago.

…

“Yes? Did you ask where the demons are?”

“yes. I was wondering if you knew.”

“Well… except that I live in the country of demons at the western end…”

After I returned to Felter Village, I started asking for information about the Demon King and the location of the Demons. When I carefully asked the receptionist, she didn’t seem to know the details either.

“All the borders leading to the country of the demons are currently closed, so I know there is no way to get there. There is still an active war in the suburbs, so the general public is strictly prohibited from entering.”

The receptionist shook his head and gave a negative opinion.

Obviously, if all borders are blocked, there is no legal route to go.

I honestly expected it, but it felt like things were going a little complicated.

“If it’s information about demons, I have one. Are you interested?”

At that time, an adventurer whom I had never seen before quietly came out and overheard the receptionist’s conversation.

His body was full of scars, holding a staff that was bigger than his body. It was an unusual and memorable staff, with a golden cross painted on the top of his staff.

At his words, my eyes widened.

“Really… ?”

“Haha yeah, do I look like a fool who tells lies about things like this? It’s true, don’t worry.”

When I asked him with a questioning look, he replied with a big smile.

“Then talk… ”

“Ugh, the young man has no morals like this.”

“Yes?”

Just as I was about to speak to him, the adventurer frowned and started pointing.

“Are you trying to listen to information with your bare mouth? It’s true that young people these days have no affection and are mean. I’m thinking of letting you know if I bring you a glass of barley wine.”

What he pointed to was the barley wine sold at one side of the guild.

This f*ck is very expensive.

However, I can’t help it because I need to get information.

I ordered barley wine and handed it to him, thinking that if it was Gura, I would pour it on his head.

“Well, it seems that you are ready to talk now. Now, you said you wanted to hear information about the demons, right? Okay, I’ll tell you now, so listen carefully.”

The man quickly grabbed his drink, sat down, and started talking with a satisfied expression on his face.

“As you can see, I’m not the type to settle down in one place. Every time I go here, then when I change my mind, I go there, just like a reed blowing in the wind… ”

“Oh f*ck, just get to the point.”

“Ah, yes it is. The point is that when I passed near the fairy forest, there was an attack by demons in the nearby village. So it wasn’t too much of a fuss.”

The man told the story with a very serious expression.

“Aren’t the demons unable to leave because they are surrounded by the allied forces?”

“It is only about borders. The Fairy Forest is an inviolable territory for both humans and demons. Since the forest is actually managed by the fairies who only appear in legends, if you send an army in, you won’t be able to escape forever.”

“ah… ”

“Anyway, if you want to face the demons, the only way is to go to the fairy forest. Even if you take the risk, that’s the only way for now.”

He quickly emptied a glass of barley wine, and as soon as he finished speaking, he packed up his things and started to leave the guild. Before stepping out the door, he told me:

“I don’t know how high your goal is, but if you ever hear any information, please let me know what happened to the previous demon king on the day we meet again. It’s not a big deal, but I’m a little curious personally. Good luck then.”

He shouted an unknown question and disappeared outside the guild in the blink of an eye.

To be honest, I wasn’t that trustworthy, but other people couldn’t give me the information to do so, so there was no other way.

I had to go.

Even if there were no demons there.

One thread of information was an important point, so I had to find information there.

Rin, Kyoko, and I immediately packed up and started our little journey to the fairy forest.

…

Because of that, we are now running towards the fairy forest.

Before that, they planned to arrive at the port city of Tilans as a stopover first, rest and replenish supplies, and then depart for the Fairy Forest with all their might.

The road to it was unexpectedly smooth.

There were no thieves or demons, and they approached Tillans faster than planned without anything special happening in the middle.

All the way, Rin was touching the newly purchased window here and there, polishing it to a shine. Seeing the happy expression on his face, it seemed that he liked it quite a bit.

Indeed, her combat was angular and impeccably clean.

As I expected, as soon as she got the spear, the amount of monsters she could catch by herself almost doubled.

That meant that his income also increased, so buying a spear was definitely a good decision.

However, when it comes to Kyoko’s weapon, I think it’s a bit ambiguous.

“Japanese sword that cuts the blade… This is a very rare wwww”

In particular, Kyoko laughed at how good her sword, which had been custom-made at the forge, was taking it out of the scabbard and putting it back in again.

Her weapon was none other than a single-edged sword with only one edge sharpened, resembling a Japanese sword.

To be honest, when I tested the sword right after buying it, I was impressed by how Kyoko quickly caught several rabbits by herself.

It felt like the image of Kyoko, who used to be clumsy, had changed a bit.

Of course, right after that, until right before Kyoko talked about samurai’s bushido that she didn’t want me to know about all day long, until right before I got beaten up.

Apart from that, it is still questionable whether it was worth the money it had to produce.

She could have bought a better sword for 20 silver screens to make custom weapons, but she didn’t know why Kyoko was serious about Japanese swords.

Of course, she bought it with the reward money she got from the competition during the Lopeiron Festival, so I wasn’t in a position to interfere much.

“But Kyoko, do you really need to make a single blade? It would be inconvenient if it wasn’t a double-edged sword…”

“Unlearned wwwww, like a lowly person”

“Continue explaining… ”

“Japanese swords are “romantic”…”

Burning 20 silver coins for romance was a very reasonable decision.

The explanation was so reasonable that the moment he was about to put a reasonable fist on Kyoko’s head, the coachman opened his mouth at the right time.

“We will arrive in Tillans soon. After staying here for about a week as planned, we plan to approach the fairy forest suburbs through a broker.”

The coachman spoke in a businesslike tone.

His face looked quite rugged, but even if he pretended to, he looked like he was in a fight.

Since what we are about to do now is close to an expedient that has gone in very slightly from Buddhism, I was introduced as a reliable person who is good at this kind of work and recognized a helper.

He had already been in and out of the fairy forest a few times, so he was chosen right away, but no matter how many times he tried, he couldn’t get used to his rugged appearance.

“What are you going to do, Damian? Are you planning to stay at the accommodation?”

“The coachman has only a carriage. I will not leave my house and find a place to stay.”

“ah… yes…”

Damian replied bluntly.

I’d rather be blunt, or if the tension was high, I’d be able to get along somehow.

He was a person who didn’t speak well and rarely changed his expression, so honestly, in many ways, he was a difficult person to get close to.

When I was lost in thought for such a long time.

The salty wind filled with the scent of the sea brushed both cheeks.

Tillance, which finally arrived after several days of travel, had a cool color as if it had a blue light.

As expected, the sea was as blue and beautiful as the earth and the other world.

…

The inn room I bought at a slightly higher price was so spacious and satisfying.

I can’t stand the ocean view.

This is also why people think they need money.

The sun has already started to set today, so I decided to start sightseeing in earnest tomorrow. Of course, I didn’t come here to play, but since information gathering was indispensable, it was both a business and a business.

It was then that I got myself into bed to go to bed early for a lively start to tomorrow.

– He ran to this area!!

– There!

– Over there, everyone gather!

There was a commotion outside the inn.

I don’t know what kind of bastards screamed like that, but crazy people are full of things in the world, so I just ignored it and closed my eyes.

Bang bang-!

Someone knocked hard on the door.

The person who came at this timing must have had something to do with the commotion outside, so I just pretended not to hear and decided to lie still.

There’s nothing good about getting involved.

Although it seemed heartless, it was a hundred times better than getting caught up in a strange incident.

“Do you have no ears? A person came, but why did you open the door… ”

“No, Kyoko, don’t open the door!”

Then, Kyoko started walking towards the door.

I instinctively sensed the danger and tried to block it with superhuman reaction speed.

“uh… Already opened…”

The door had already been opened by her.

I quickly blocked the door, but it was difficult to close as the person outside struggled to get in.

The person outside the door was a woman wearing a black hood.

“You hide me! Right now! Urgent!!! One o’clock!!!”

“What the hell are you talking about… who are you! Wait a minute! Wait! No f*ck don’t come in!”

I screamed in bewilderment at the blue-haired woman who suddenly entered our room.

That crazy bitch was recklessly pushing in no matter how much he blocked it.

“You entered this building! Search all over! Seeing that it’s an inn… there might be someone who seduced the saintess and brought her here! If you don’t know, tie him up and bring him too!”

The voice of a man shouting loudly came from outside the building.

At that time, I felt that I was screwed.

If we let that woman into the room now, we’re sure to get into trouble.

However, while confronting her like this, he could know for sure that if he was discovered like this, he would be dragged into ignorance.

It was truly a quandary.
