Chapter 7: Chapter 7: Angry

Seeing the sudden Quest made my face twitch.

‘Isn’t it really terrible if I fail, if I’m impotent what’s the point of living!! even worse if Silvie dies, I don’t want her to die!!’

‘And also Silvie was supposed to be evacuated why is she joining the fight against the monsters now? was it because I took her to hunt monsters together, that made her less afraid of monsters and helped save the village?’

I feel annoyed with the monsters right now. If the monsters didn’t attack the village now, waiting for me to become strong, I would be very happy but in fact, time didn’t let me become strong.

“Uncle, can I join in exterminating the monster?”

I’m currently outside the carriage with Braine. Braine is currently deploying his troops and adventurers to exterminate the many monsters that are to come.

“Hmn you want to help eradicate monsters, do you know how to fight?”

Braine turned to me, considering whether he would allow me to join the fight against the monsters.

“I can fight uncle, these past few days I’ve been fighting monsters in the forest a lot,” I spoke to Braine expectantly.

“Looks like you’re not lying, okay I’ll let you, even if something happens I’ll protect you,” Braine said with a smile.

Hearing what Braine said, I rushed to the back carriage to retrieve the dagger I had stored in the suitcase. I carried the dagger in case something happened while I was on my way or in the city.

“All of you listen!! Don’t let any monsters attack the carriage or you’ll regret it,” Braine said loudly to his troops and the adventurers guarding the carriage.

“Yes my lord,” they all answered in unison.

“Now go ahead and get rid of that bunch of stupid monsters,”

“Oooorah,”

Everyone shouted running towards the monsters. I saw this also joined the group.

“You damn monsters!! I will kill you and make all of you Battle Points for me,” I spoke without anyone hearing me because of the noise made by the troops

I slashed my dagger, towards the wolf, in one slash the wolf died instantly. Several monsters such as wolves, lizards, bears, and various kinds of beasts that I didn’t understand rushed towards us.

“Huaahahhaha… I will harvest all of you!!”

[+200 Battle Points]

[+200 Battle Points]

[+300 Battle Points]

[+500 Battle Points]

….

Finally after half an hour of fighting almost all the monsters died, there was still one monster that looked dangerous.

It was a giant green lizard measuring 6 meters long with porcupine-like spines on its back.

Race: [Iros Lizard]

Gender: [Male]

Skills: [Poison Thorns], [Corupted Claws], [Poison Blood], [Poison Ball]

Ranks: [C+]

This is the first monster I’ve seen that can use magic, it must be a dangerous monster for me now.

“Looks like this is the last one, let me fight it,” Braine walked towards us slowly.

The troops and adventurers heard it opened the way for Braine. Braine passed through and arrived in front of the Iros Lizard.

Braine raised his hand towards the Iros Lizard, a magic circle began to form in his palm.

“Lightning Slash,”

Instantly a purple light flashed past the lizard quickly and cut off the Iros Lizard’s arms and legs. I saw this was blown away by how fast the attack was, but when I heard the sound of lightning, it made me reminisce about unpleasant memories.

The lizard groaned in pain, trying to get up but its arms and legs were already cut off. I who saw this tried to say something.

“Uncle, can I kill the lizard?”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“You want to kill him? That can’t be, the lizard is still dangerous even if its arms and legs are cut off.” After saying that Braine cast the same spell and killed the lizard.

Seeing the scorched Battle Points in front of my eyes, I cried inwardly.

“Okay, everything is in order, now take the monster’s corpse into the carriage, we will take care of it later,”

Hearing what Braine said, everyone quickly gathered the monster corpses and carried them into the carriage.

Braine and I returned to the carriage. Braine seemed to be sitting there thinking about something.

‘Why are there so many monsters here? Did something happen in the forest… maybe it’s just my feeling’ Braine thought hard, finally sighing.

“Uncle, what’s wrong, you look worried?”

“Ah.. no, it’s nothing,” Braine replied with a smile.

Our group continued our journey, occasionally our party would encounter monsters but not as much as before. During the journey, I also asked Braine to let me fight monsters.

Three days later.

Our group arrived at the city, this is Sailos City. This city has a wall that is 20 meters high, looking at it from afar, the city already looks very large. I didn’t expect that previously almost half the city was flooded with blood, no wonder it would be traumatizing.

Currently, our group is in front of the city gate, the city guard is checking our group. After seeing who the owner of the group is, the guard opens the gate.

“Forgive us, Mr. Corne, we didn’t expect this to be your group, please pass,” The guard bowed respectfully.

“It does not matter,”

Our group finally entered the city, looking out the window I was mesmerized by the view. It is a medieval-like city with streets made of stone. Inns, shops, stalls are visible along the way.

The inhabitants of this city are also of various races, Beastman, Human, Dwarf, even I saw Elves here although not many.

I saw our carriage separated from the group and there was only one carriage following us, that was the carriage where I kept my luggage, this made me curious.

“Uncle where did the rest of the group go?”

“Oh.. they went to the trading hall I own,”

Hearing this I now understand. Our carriage moved through the city, finally stopping in front of the enormous manor gate.

The gate of the manor slowly opened and we entered inside, inside there was a beautiful garden with various kinds of beautiful flowers and plants growing there. Our carriage went down the road and stopped in front of the manor.

“My lord we have arrived”

The coachman opened the door, Braine and I got out of the carriage. Looking at the manor in front of me I couldn’t help but marvel. The manor was so huge it was probably about three basketball courts.

The manor door opened to reveal a beautiful woman with light blue hair and amber-colored eyes. The woman looked like she was 30 years old.

Beside her was a 9-year-old girl who had blonde hair with a few strands of light blue hair and Fuchsia-colored eyes. Her face was cute and pretty just like Braine said.

‘Wait, isn’t that a sub heroine? So she’s Uncle Braine’s daughter I don’t know at all!!’

The sub heroine’s name is Celyne, when I finished the route I don’t really remember her surname because it was only explained once. It turned out that she was Braine’s daughter.

‘I’m sorry Uncle Braine, I will make your daughter unable to forget me’ I apologized with guilt in my heart.

“Honey you’re home huh,” the beautiful woman said with longing in her eyes.

“Father!! You’re finally home,” Celyne ran over and pounced on Braine.

Braine saw this quickly caught it.

“Hahaha, my little angel do you miss your father?”

“Um, I missed you so much,” Celyne giggled in his arms.

After letting go of her arms Celyne looked at me. Her eyes lit up when she saw me.

“Father who is he?” Celyne said curiously.

“Ah… His name is Lute he is the child I brought from the orphanage that was taken care of by my friend, this child will stay here for a few days,”

“So he can be my playmate? Hooray,” Celyne shouted happily.

“Hahaha.. of course, he will be your friend, Lute they are my family, this is my wife’s name Sina and this is my daughter’s name Celyne,” Braine introduced them one by one.

“My name is Lute Carter,” I bowed respectfully.

“No need to be so formal kid,” Sina smiled.

“Father, Mother I want to play with Lute if it’s okay,” Celyne said with a hopeful face.

“Okay but don’t take too long, because Lute must be tired during the trip,” Braine said to Celyne.

“Okay Lute let’s play”

Celyne pulled my hand into the garden, I followed behind. Seeing the two of us running, Braine and Sina smiled.

“Now honey come on in, you must be tired,”

“Um,” Braine nodded.
