My Villains Episode 100
26. Fever (1)
Oh my.
I feel a little empty.
Until a few days ago, several birds were singing in unison.
Aow, aow.
It’s Styrofoam, vinyl, plastic… piled up under the electric pole. … .
cat.
Among the small cats lying in a row, only one was crying and crying.
Because of the hot weather, a foul odor emanates from the garbage heap.
“Ugh, the smell.”
I pulled my neck pole up to my nose and squatted down.
Trying not to touch the children who had stopped breathing, I picked up the stuffed animal with my index finger.
Ah, dear.
A cat that can’t even open its eyes is squirming.
Shall I take you?
Baeksun has nothing to do anyway.
What if I go back to school?
Return to school? Are you going to do it?
well.
I held the cat in my arms and immediately regretted it. It might be coffee or something, but there’s something sticky on it.
“hey. “Do you want to live with me?” Oh my.
I am glad to see helpless crying.
I took him home, washed and dried him.
With milk… … No?
It’s cat formula. Ah, that’s annoying.
I headed to the animal hospital with the wrapped cat.
“You shouldn’t pick up the kitten carelessly. “The mother may come back.”
An unexpected, reproachful tone.
“No way, did you wash it? If the smell changes, the mother will not be able to recognize her cub. “It’s a big deal.”
The nurse scares the child by inducing defecation, massaging, and maintaining body temperature.
Hunsu, Hunsu, Hunsu, Xpal, saying that a child cannot be saved with a complacent mentality.
He stabbed the nurse to death and took the powdered milk.
Bobpuri enjoyed the powdered milk.
I fell asleep with my stomach full.
A hum comes out.
“Happy’?”
I turned my head to the familiar voice.
A girl standing tall at the entrance.
“Han Ji-won? you… …
You’re dead. how?
Jiwon is split in two.
An adolescent girl who looks just like her older sister.
A girl with blonde hair and blue eyes.
“Are you happy?”
“I am,”
A blonde girl blocks the way.
“You don’t have to answer.”
“Ellen, I am.”
“are you okay.”
Jiwon is on fire.
Ellen hugged me and patted my shoulder.
“are you okay. are you okay.”
The next day was busy preparing to leave on the road.
It is said that the sea route from here to the west takes at least a week, or up to 15 days at the most. In reality, you don’t move through a region by showing a video like in a game, so it was natural that there was a lot to prepare for that long journey.
It’s a good thing that the schedule was delayed by a day. If I had planned to leave today as I initially thought, I might have left the city in the evening.
First, I checked the equipment again.
In the last battle, I killed the robber baron. Thanks to this, his black plate armor naturally became my prize.
But damn, I couldn’t find where the helmet had gone, and the breastplate was cracked almost as wide as the palm of my hand, making it unusable.
You could roughly apply iron plates, but it would be better to repair the armor you were wearing before and wear it.
Still, I was able to salvage the rest of the set except for the helmet and breastplate. The craftsmen at the workshop adjusted it to fit my body, and the breastplate was replaced with a shorter coat of plates.
As my armor became stronger, I thought about not buying a shield… … The craftsmen at the workshop made a shield for me. It was an object made by wrapping scales around the bones of an underground lord.
I took my taste into consideration and made it into a one-shield shield, and the performance was quite good. Since I was still used to sword fighting and felt mentally stable, I decided to use a shield.
Well, when I become more proficient in two-handed swordsmanship, I might be able to give up my shield.
Oh, I also bought some javelins. I’ve used it a few times in combat, and I’ve also practiced it while training with knights, but I’ve really gotten used to it.
In addition, I bought two daggers, two pairs of leather boots and leather gloves, and several sets of extra clothes.
Ellen still insisted that she would not wear armor even if she died.
Well, what can I do if I don’t like it? Instead, I bought him several sturdy leather clothes. At least because I had experience wearing leather vests, I was a little less resistant to leather clothes.
Well, you can never block arrows with something like this. I guess I’ll have to hit it with my body.
There was no need to take special care of Ute Kwai. He doesn’t wear armor, it’s his shoes or pants that matter.
He bought it well and wore it well.
After checking the equipment, I stopped by a jewelry store and bought three diamonds.
In this world, diamonds were not simply rare gems. It is a very valuable ingredient often sought after by wizards and alchemists. Thanks to this, the market price was fairly consistent.
I bought those diamonds for no other reason, but because I had too many gold and silver coins.
There were over 60 gold coins alone and about 200 silver coins, so it was very cumbersome. So I bought a small and light diamond.
The next thing I packed was groceries.
They said their employers would take care of basic meals, but… … . Utekwa and I eat a lot of food. Even if we set off with only groceries instead of goods, our supplies would run out before we reached Longville, or even the West.
So I bought enough groceries for a week. There is also the issue of shelf life, and if it becomes too bulky, it cannot be carried around.
And since I said I would stop by several stopping points on the way, I guess there is nothing to worry about.
In addition, they also packed miscellaneous items such as shovels, hammers, ropes, candles, torches, leather skins, ointments, and bandages.
After that, let alone its weight, it was so bulky that I couldn’t carry it on my back.
Ellen clicked her tongue as she watched Utequoi and I whining and packing our bags in the back yard of the inn.
“Don’t be stupid and take out some groceries. “Who takes ten hams with them when they go on a trip?”
“Okay, so it’s only 5 kilos, right? And, how important is protein intake?”
“Oh yeah? “Then, aren’t salted lamb and fish shells proteins?”
“You get sick of eating ham every day.”
“… … ha. And, what is smoked herring? “I hate that smell!”
“I won’t tell you to eat. “Don’t worry, we’ll eat it all.”
“That’s because the smell gets all over the other luggage!”
As Ellen continued to complain, Wu Tequai shook his head.
“Sweetheart, it’s worth knowing. He is short because of the food. You have to eat a lot to grow big. Girl, cover your food with your breasts and butt-”
“You crazy barbarian!”
With a trembling howl, the wind rushed and struck Utequai in the face.
“Kkuuuu!”
“Ugh, yum! “It’s pouring down!”
The difficult packing process was resolved neatly when the king’s three knights appeared.
“No, what are you doing here?” …
“I think you forgot something.”
Sir Langbolt said that and handed me the reins he was carrying.
“Spotted?”
“That’s right. “Isn’t this your loot?”
“Uh, yes, that’s right.”
Actually, taking care of a horse isn’t a bit of a hassle. So I left Spotted Dog in the hands of Prince Ulkar’s cavalry and half-forgotten about it… … .
“Well, thank you. I just needed to say something… …
As I scratched my head, Lord Ankir burst out laughing and said:
“Every knight needs words. Whether you use it as a pack horse or for battle. “Don’t think it’s a bother, but take good care of it, Lord Phoenix.”
“Okay, I understand.”
“Loading a horse on a ship can be quite difficult, so you’ll need to pay a lot of attention.”
“… … Ah, well. That’s how it should be.” After solving the luggage problem, the three knights dragged me into the inn and ordered a lot of drinks and food.
“No, sir. “What is this all of a sudden?”
When I looked puzzled, Sir Langbolt spoke with a solemn expression.
“We have left to answer the call of fate, but aren’t you and us knights serving the same lord? “What’s so strange about having a drink to soothe the regret of a breakup?”
… … What is this guy talking about?
Before I could say anything, Utequwai, who followed me, opened his mouth.
“Alcohol is important to warriors. I’m not together. “There is a place to stop by.”
“… … Stop by? Where are you stopping by? “I don’t know anyone in the city.”
“There is a store I frequent.”
He says that and smiles, but that sinister smile… … . It was the very face of the package illustration that spawned countless memes.
Ugh, crazy guy. You have to get sick to come to your senses.
Meanwhile, Ellen also shrugged her shoulders and nodded.
“Good. I was going to organize my things today anyway. “Even if you were there, it would only be a hindrance.”
“Do you have anything to clean up?”
“You emptied the lab. “You have to throw away what you need to throw away and take care of what you need to take care of.”
After saying that, he went up to the second floor.
After that… … Well, it was an obvious drinking party.
A typical drinking party where you talk about dreams, criticize greedy nobles, talk about the battles you’ve experienced and the monsters you’ve killed, and draw pictures of the scenery of your hometown.
Grania and Arnal, who had come to say goodbye, joined them for drinks, but the topic of conversation did not change much.
Then, suddenly, I felt like I was emptying my glass and having a natural conversation among the mercenaries and knights.
It’s been less than two months since I came into this world, and I’ve adapted quite well.
Isn’t that right?
“Ugh, I’m dying.”
Perhaps because I had been drinking until the film was over, I felt bloated and achy in the morning.
Damn it, I’m not in the best condition for the day the adventure begins.
Only after washing my face with well water and arming myself do I come to my senses.
I went down to the first floor with my luggage, but no matter how much I looked around, I couldn’t see the face I was looking for.
“Mr. owner. “What about Daria?”
“huh? “Weren’t we together?”
“We are together. I couldn’t even talk properly because I was drinking with the drivers… …
I searched the inside and outside of the inn, including her room, but Daria was nowhere to be found.
Where did you go? I couldn’t even say goodbye properly last night… … .
When I think about that, I suddenly feel sorry for Daria.
They had secret relationships every night and acted like lovers, but when it came time to leave, they never discussed it… … . Wow, now that I think about it, I feel like complete trash.
There was some time as Ellen was still lazing around in her room. I ran frantically and searched the market and the square, but I couldn’t find Daria.
By the time I returned to the inn, Ellen and Utequai were waiting in front of the inn.
“Ha, hoo. Daria, haven’t you seen Daria?” “I didn’t see it.”
“… … “I didn’t see it either.”
Ute Kwai, who was scratching his stomach and chewing fish shells, and Ellen, who had a pale face, probably because she was half asleep, shook their heads.
“Ha, where did it go… …
I haven’t known him that long, but he’s not the kind of kid who suddenly disappears like this. Perhaps he hid somewhere because he didn’t want to see me leave?
As I was taking off my helmet and combing my hair, Utequoi spoke.
“Ship, leaving. “I miss it.”
“… … sorry. “Please wait a moment.”
I quickly ran into the inn and left a letter.
After scribbling down random words and leaving it to the owner, I headed to the dock.
Until I passed the Salt Castle and the revitalized streets of street vendors and trading posts, I constantly looked back.
Even after getting on the boat, passing the entrance to the bay and the South Harbor becoming as small as a fingernail, I looked back.
Even though our relationship was short, I wanted to say goodbye properly… … .
The sense of accomplishment of finishing a chapter or the excitement of a new journey had disappeared.
Feeling only deep regret and belated sadness, I left South Harbor.
