“You couldn’t move your body?”“Yeah. I couldn’t move after I looked at the blackwolf’s eyes.” After recovering Reno, we had temporarily retreated to the safe-area.She seemed to be so scared that by the time I arrived, she was already sweating profusely and wasn’t in a state where she could continue exploring. She had considerably calmed […]

Let’s Continue Exploring ④

“Blackwolf, come out already~” I mumbled to no one in particular. Those words slipped out without me even realizing. I can’t let my guard down. Taking on a blackwolf alone is impossible. If it catches me off guard, it could be the end of me. It always feels like Lain nii-chan is watching over me, […]

Let’s Continue Exploring ③

“It’s a lot less intense than I thought.”“Of course it is. It’s not like the mana concentration has gone up or anything.” We are currently inside the demon forest.Passing by the safe-area we had found before, we had arrived at a slightly deep location. The concentration of magic hadn’t really changed, nor had the type […]

Let’s Continue Exploring ②

“We’re starting tomorrow?” “That’s the plan.” “Alright!” “Can’t wait to explore.” After dinner, when I mentioned resuming our exploration, Reno was thrilled as expected. Sui also seemed eager to get back to it. Both of them diligently engaged in agricultural work without saying a word. They even took care of sowing seeds and watering before […]

“With this, it’s finally done!” I finished building the wall surrounding the field.I say wall, but it’s simply a raised pile of dirt. It would break by winter, so something like this would do.It was enough to prevent greywolves from trespassing.It won’t fall over even if it was pushed by hand, so it was plenty […]

“…That is the end of our report.”“I see. You may leave now. Good work coming all this way to the royal capital.”“Ha!” The four soldiers retreated.Those four were the ones sent to the pioneering village, in place of Lain.I had them come all this way to give their report on the village. “It appears that […]

Extra Story: Village Reconnaissance

“Ha~, I took on such an annoying job.” I have come to investigate a village, as a task given by the group I work for.I say group, but truthfully, it’s a criminal organization dealing in illegal things. It took half a month to reach this corner of the country.I thought it would be an easy […]

Aria’s Return ④

“Then, exploration will wait until our field work is done?”“Yes. That’s the plan.”“Got it. Then let’s do it!” After the party, when I laid out plans for the near-future, Reno immediately started preparing for work. I was sure Reno would complain.Yet she should no signs of doing that.What changed? As I tilted my neck looking […]

Aria’s Return ③

“Did anything happen in the village?”“No, nothing of note.” Aria and Kili chatted while making the food for the party. Despite Aria’s return being celebrated, was she going to be making the food – was what I thought.However, making food together itself is like our everyday, so this should be fine.I couldn’t help with the […]

Aria’s Return ②

“We will be taking our leave now.”“Thank you all very much.” The soldiers left, riding on the horse-carriage we came in.They seemed to have brought only the bare minimum of luggage, so they left in almost no time after we arrived. The potion seemed to be quite bitter, and the soldiers who drank it made […]
