My Villains Episode 116
30. Holiday (1)
The Amias group sitting around the table next to us were giggling among themselves as they ate.
“I already have four silver coins… … . If I only earn 50 days like today, I can buy a ranch. “I’m sick of chickens, so I need to buy about 20 cows and fill them up.” As Buni spoke with hazy eyes, her freckled mummy smiled and shook her head.
“What is your dream of becoming a boy?”
“What are you going to do?”
“I’m opening a store in Lemeric. “Let’s open a tavern as big as this and prey on mercenaries.”
When Steedman heard the story, he clicked his tongue.
“Mira, I don’t think your dreams are that big, do you?”
“okay? “So what dream does our bald dwarf have?”
“Don’t call me a dwarf.”
“I understand, so answer me, Mr. Pudgy Bo.”
Steedman cursed softly and then answered.
“I want to gather about 50 mercenaries and form a mercenary unit.”
“So what do you do?”
“You receive land by pioneering ‘Asag’.”
“What are you doing by receiving land in such a wetland?”
When Mira asked earnestly, Steedman lowered his posture and whispered quietly.
“We are using it as a base to hunt monsters. Just like we do a hunting festival here, we gather mercenaries and hunters to catch the Drake. “If you take off the skin and fins and sell them, you could make a lot of money.”
“Drake was captured so easily? “They’re the kind of guys who would swallow a pudgy guy like you in one bite?”
“… … “I would have told you not to call me pudgy.”
“When did you? “Don’t call me a dwarf?”
“You damn bitch,”
Just as Steedman’s head was turning red, leader Amias quickly intervened.
“stop. “It’s a nice day, why are we fighting?”
“This bitch keeps losing her temper!”
“Go to sleep, calm down. hey! “Bring six beers here!” I, who had been quietly watching what they were doing, looked back at the counter.
“The meal is over, so it’s time for beer!”
When I suddenly intervened and shouted like that, the Amias gang looked at me as if asking what I was doing.
“Ellen, would you like to go up to your room first? “I’ll stay in the backyard for a while and then go in.”
“… … “I see.”
When Ellen nodded, Utekwa raised her glass of beer and said,
“I’m going to have another drink.”
“I fell asleep talking bullshit. “Follow me.”
“hmm? Are you going to do Nabouk?”
“no.”
I looked back at the Amias gang and continued.
“Are these guys going to make people?”
Six pairs of eyes widened.
“What were you staring at? “Everyone come out to the backyard.”
Since it was still summer and the days were long, I lit a couple of torches and it became as bright as day. The hot dirt floor is cooling down, and the cool evening breeze is blowing.
It’s a perfect environment for training.
“Hold on, you idiot!”
I shouted and stomped my foot at the same time.
bang!
“Oops!”
Tight Steedman is playing poorly.
I pulled the shield next to it, and the freckled mummy gritted her teeth and held on.
“Be flexible, stay flexible!”
I immediately reversed my strength and pushed her away, and snatched the quarterstaff that had been struck down belatedly.
“Slow and obvious! Be bolder!”
When I pulled the quarterstaff, the blunder came out unsteadily.
“Geh!”
He kicked Buni down with his foot and pushed his jaw away while avoiding the wooden club that Ah Mias had hurled at him.
As my colleagues all rolled around on the floor, Jenessa, holding the quarterstaff, looked at me and shivered.
“When are you going to move?”
“Wow.”
Jenessa, with her shoulders slumped, stretched out her quarterstaff without any strength. His posture is good, but he has no spirit at all.
He snatched the quarterstaff with one hand, placed it between Genessa’s legs, and twisted it. Jenessa falls helplessly.
“Again, take a seat!”
As I shout, the dusty mercenaries hurriedly stand up and take their stance.
“Ute kwai.”
“Huh, let’s go!”
Utequai, holding a wooden club in each hand, smiled viciously and walked around the mercenaries.
“Turn around slowly, slowly!”
Amias screamed to try to do something, but Ute Kwai rushed at him like an animal and pelted him with sticks without mercy.
Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom!
In two breaths, Amias and Mira fell asleep, and in the next two breaths, the other three fell asleep.
I sighed and approached the guys struggling on the dirt ground.
“How many times do I tell you not to close your eyes when defending? You have to watch the attack until the end and try to let it go. If you give your body strength and hold on, you can block it all, right? “Are you orcs?”
“Queu, queuung.”
“Boonie, Jenessa. If you hear a weapon, just stab it. Instead of thinking of killing the opponent, attack first with the idea of stabbing before the attack reaches the ally’s shield?”
“… … Huh, ah, I understand.”
“Now, wake up!”
The five mercenaries got up, scratching the floor, and quickly fell asleep again.
I wiped the sweat from my forehead as I left the next round to Ute Kwai. Then he approached Archer Cole, who was hanging on a ladder.
“Is it worth it?”
“Whoa, whoa, whoa.”
Cole was climbing a ladder leaning against a large tree.
Rather than climbing up by stepping on the step with your feet, you are climbing up from the bottom of the ladder using only both hands. He was even wearing heavy chain armor.
After finishing ladder training, Cole then fell to the floor. Then, among push-ups, I started doing what is commonly called a ‘belly push’.
“How many sets of these are there?”
“Nine, *sigh* set.”
Well, I guess I’ll have to finish it soon.
I looked back at the mercenaries lying on the ground and clapped my hands.
“Well, today is the first day, so let’s stop here.”
“Ugh.”
“Lord, I’m dying.”
I said with a grin to the Amias gang who were making groaning noises.
“Why are you trying to die like this? “There is still a long way to go to serve just one person.”
The mercenaries looked a little fed up, but none of them really objected.
“Don’t think about drinking beer, just go in and eat a few boiled eggs and go to sleep. “Let’s gather here again before sunrise tomorrow.”
Amias asked with a pale face at my words.
“for a moment. Sun, before sunrise? Then, what about hunting?”
“Of course I should go.”
“You’re going to train and go hunting?”
“why? Are you thrilled to have had the opportunity to improve your skills?”
“……o ugh”
—
Amias was about to say something but closed his mouth.
Well, the driver himself worked hard to learn
I train you and take you hunting, but it’s strange if you’re dissatisfied.
The days passed by in Longville.
I wake up at dawn, do free sparring, eat breakfast, rest for a couple of hours, and then go hunting.
Travel to the foot of the mountain to hunt a small group of Greenskin or Anupad, then return to Longville to submit your results.
After dinner, we do group training and go to bed early.
A week passed like that.
Quite a bit, quack.
When I, who used to leave the room every day, didn’t leave until lunchtime, the group seemed excited.
The tusk that has been sticking out since the day before yesterday is rubbing against my ankle. I tickled his stomach and put down the wooden bowl.
It is oat porridge mixed with sugar and milk. In a luxury that a wild boar could not enjoy, the dog snorted and hurriedly emptied the bowl.
“Oh, eat well. Oh, eat well.”
Unlike kittens, wild boars ate just about anything.
If there was no food to be found, even if you handed over what it had been eating, it readily ate the bundle, and thanks to this, it grew several times in size in just two months. A little bigger than a Welsh Corgi?
The lump that finished eating in an instant came onto my thigh, whining. Then I lied down on my stomach and took a position.
I quietly brushed his fur. Warm body temperature was transmitted through the well-dried fur.
“I want to eat pork kimchi stew. “Do you remember what I said about kimchi stew before?”
It seemed as if it understood what I was saying and let out a small cry.
“My mother, even though she’s not good at everything else, she makes chicken stew and pork kimchi stew that are truly amazing.” The bundle held its breath at the small whisper. His eyelids slowly lowered under my gentle touch.
“I guess I want to eat spicy food. “Jjambbong, tteokbokki, kimchi porridge, monkfish stew, things like that.”
Perhaps because the situation was so familiar to him, he didn’t care what I said and started scratching my thigh with his head.
“I also want to eat rice noodles. “There’s a place in Sinchon that’s truly amazing… I never ate pho my whole life, but after eating there, I became a total addict.”
Just as the group’s eyelids began to slowly close, the door burst open.
“it’s over?”
“almost.”
The one who entered the room floating in the air was, of course, Ellen. He, wearing only her cotton pants and shirt, still had his eyes half closed.
“No, you’re still sleepy after sleeping so well?”
“Don’t argue.”
Ellen answered in a quiet voice, handed me a towel and sat down. I looked down at the towel and laughed.
“Now it’s just automatic?”
“hurry ”
Well, they say it’s getting more and more like Yangyang.
After shaking his head, he carefully moved the bundle to the bed and began to shake off Ellen’s hair with a towel.
The scent of lime, which has now become a part of daily life, filled the room. I quietly took a breath and dried Ellen’s hair thoroughly. After finishing combing, her hair is as fresh as a field of rape flowers after the rain.
“Okay, the end.”
“Yes.”
I put on only the vambraces and greaves and then fastened the belt.
Ellen wore a leather vest, slingbacks, and even a robe. Then she yawned softly and sat down on my arm.
“let’s go.”
Today is a day off.
There were two reasons: the first was that the Amias gang needed reorganization.
Due to the intense week-long schedule, the six mercenaries suffered major and minor injuries and fatigue. So, I needed a day where I could leisurely receive treatment and check the equipment at church.
The second reason was Ellen.
“You look a little excited?”
“huh? It’s not?”
Ellen turned her head, pretending not to care, but the expression on the boy’s face when he woke up to the wind was full of excitement that could not be hidden.
“Are you that excited about going to someone else’s lab?”
“… … “It’s not exciting, but it’s a rare occurrence.”
Now Ellen and I were walking towards the permanent residence. She is going to the laboratory of Master Cass Wright, the magician of Longville’s territory.
“It’s very rare for a wizard to invite someone they don’t know very well to his laboratory.”
“Um, really?”
“huh. “He seems like a person with a good heart.”
I had already met Master Casswright. She was introduced to a meal by the Baroness, a person who could tell at a glance that she was a decent person.
We arrived at the laboratory located next to the Yeongju Hall. It was a brick building with three chimneys and a firewood warehouse attached to one side.
After holding the doorknob and knocking on the door a couple of times, a middle-aged woman appeared.
“Lord Phoenix, Miss Ellen!” Master Casswright was a lady who made anyone feel warm. She is an impressive person with neatly combed gray hair, ample body, and a big, sparkling smile.
“It’s a beautiful noon, isn’t it? “Come this way.”
Master Casswright’s laboratory was, well, a place that looked like a sophisticated kitchen.
Three sides were filled with shelves storing all kinds of herbs and ingredients, and firewood was neatly stacked in six layers on one side. There, large and small cauldrons, hourglasses, bellows, mortar and pestles, transparent glass bottles, thick books, etc. were neatly arranged.
As I looked around the room blankly, the lady led us to the tea table. All kinds of food were spread out on the tea table.
Honey-pickled mixture of peaches, nuts, figs, and ginger, scones baked until golden brown and topped with apple jam, cookies made with whole wheat and eggs mixed and baked in butter, fragrant chocolate molds sprinkled with herbs… … .
These were luxurious foods that are not commonly found in this world. Of course, it wouldn’t be that burdensome for a middle-aged wizard whose only stigma was making delicious snacks and sharing them with those around him.
The first guest was sitting at the tea table with luxurious snacks laid out.
“The Baroness is here.”
“Nice to meet you, Lord Phoenix.”
While I was greeting the Baroness, Ellen and Master Cass Wright, who were sitting across from me, had already started a full-fledged conversation. Although it is in Milano, the conversation is completely incomprehensible.
