After I finished the laundry, I went home and hung up my wet clothes.
The weather was nice and warm and it felt good.
My adventuring days have been full of battles, so I never thought I’d have days where I could just relax.
I can only hope that this will continue, but perhaps it will be difficult.
With the dungeons, the Saints, and the goblin population, there are a number of things that could become a problem, and once the Lord starts making serious moves, Yang will change a lot. A big swell of change is coming. It won’t be all good. In fact, there may be more bad than good. No one knows the answer to that question.
That’s why I should be prepared for anything that may happen.
This is the village where I will spend the rest of my life. I must not neglect my training so that I can contribute as much as possible.
「Let’s get moving …..」
I went back to my house, grabbed the sword that had been provided to me, and went outside to start swinging. It’s a unique form that incorporates magic into the movement.
Magic swordsmen are good at using a combination of Fire magic to blind people and Earth magic to block the movement of their feet to gain an advantage in a fight.
Because they must be able to learn and use both swordsmanship and magic, they tend to be half-hearted in both and are often said to be useless by the world. However, when mastered, they are versatile. They can apply power to survive in any situation.
「Fu~uh …..」
After taking the time to confirm the skills I had acquired, I adjusted my breathing.
I finally called out to the two women who had been watching me train.
「Did I keep you waiting?」
「Don’t worry about it, we just came on our own.」
It was Sophie, whom I had just left, who replied. Helmine was standing behind her, hiding.
「It’s unusual for you to come to this house on the outskirts of the village, isn’t it?」
「When I told her about meeting Lars at the laundry, Helmine said she wanted to thank you, so I brought her here.」
「Ah, um, …….」
Helmine bowed her head as she stepped in front of me, her face red and looking down.
「Thank you so much for saving my father!」
Helmine must have summoned up the courage to say. 『It’s my job. Don’t worry』, I hesitated to say that to her.
I felt as if she was thanking me for defeating the Cannibal Ogre over time, and I felt unbelievably happy. It had been so long since I had seen her that I had to search my memory to remember how long it had been.
「I’m going to be guarding the inn for a while, so feel free to ask me for help if you need it.」
I patted Helmine on the head.
「You’re still kind, aren’t you?」
I couldn’t stand the sight of Sophie smirking at me and I could feel my face turning red.
With no time to argue, I decided to run away and return to my room. I can hear her footsteps following me, but for now, let me be alone!
