Returned Lord Wants To Rest - Chapter 113



Episode 113.

After all the bandits had fled, Princess Letia asked me.

“But why did you let the bandits go? After all, heroes forgive people easily, don’t they?”

I told you honestly.

“Let’s say I captured the bandits.”

“yes!”

“Then, where will the bandits go?”

“Um… I’m going to jail.”

“Yes, that’s right. Bandits will go to jail.”

I pointed to the surrounding landscape.

I see nothing but mountains.

Even though there was a village under the mountain, it was not visible at a glance.

“Is there a place like this that can accommodate that many bandits?”

“that···.”

“But are their sins too bad to kill them all right here?”

The bandits here were more like hunters.

Hunting rather than looting was their main occupation.

Besides, they weren’t as bad as I thought.

“What did they say at first?”

“Uh… so…”

They told me to give everything I had or pay the toll.

They were the owners of this mountain.

So I knew the geography of this place well.

“It is a group that takes you safely as long as you pay the toll. In a way, they are an escort group that has built a nest in the mountains.”

“is it so?”

“Of course, it would be embarrassing if I refused the escort, but I adjusted the toll tax reasonably and didn’t do anything bad. Rather, it would have been of great help to the residents of this place.”

Then, Princess Letia expressed her question to me.

“Then why did you kick me out of here? From what I’ve heard, it seems like we’re on the wrong side…”

“that···.”

Can’t you help it?

From nob le mt l. co m

No matter how good they are, they are bandits.

They are not the ones who listen to pure words.

Besides, isn’t this a dragon’s rare?

“Ummm… is this the location where the dragon is presumed to be rare?”

“yes···? Is this a dragon’s rare? How did you know?”

“It’s just…”

At first glance, I had heard that only the residents of the mountain were bothered by the dragon rare.

But no one built a village on the mountain.

If so, it must be a bandit.

“Wow… wait, then, is the ordeal already over?”

“Yes···?”

“What should I do… have I been shaken by any chance?”

“Not at all.”

During the ordeal, my heart was not at all shaken by Princess Letia.

Of course, it wasn’t that he disliked Princess Letia.

Rather than just the opposite s*x, it was a feeling that if I had a younger sister, I would have been like this.

“Uh… I don’t have much time.”

“There is only time left to go back, so why don’t we give up now?”

Princess Letia stared at me intensely with both eyes and said.

“It ain’t over till it’s over!”

In a way, he seemed angry.

***

Something bad happened.

Through Princess Letia’s communication tool, she told the king that she had found the location of the dragon rare.

I thought I just had to come back.

But no.

The king’s voice came from the communication port.

– I wonder if I heard a rumor somewhere that there are people who are aiming for a dragon rare.

“yes···?”

-So, please take good care of me until the royal army arrives.

“all right.”

An extension of the ordeal was created.

He intended to return, but was told to watch over him until the troops sent by the royal family arrived.

“Ehh…”

Princess Letia, who had been listening quietly by the side, spoke triumphantly.

“I told you! It’s not over until it’s over!”

“Yes···.”

He also wondered if the current situation was all part of Princess Letia’s scheme.

However, there was nothing Princess Letia could gain by saying that.

If there is one thing, it is that the time with me gets longer.

There was only one.

“Ehh… Then, I’ll have to fix the bed.”

“yes···? A dragonfly?”

Princess Letia suddenly blushed.

What kind of misunderstanding are you doing?

“I have to protect this place, but I can’t go back and forth from the village inn below.”

“But… I think it’s too soon!”

“What are you talking about? There are plenty of places to sleep as the bandits used to live here anyway. And in a week or so, I won’t have to sleep at all.”

The royal army will arrive in about a week.

After accepting the power of nature, there was no discomfort even if I didn’t have to sleep, so I was able to give up at least sleep.

“Ah… I’m going to sleep alone.”

As if disappointed, Princess Letia’s expression darkened.

“Well, as long as I escort this place, there will be no danger. Besides, the bandits must have been quite tidy and the beds were clean.”

“Yeah…but it doesn’t matter if the bed is dirty. I brought my bedding anyway.”

Before starting the trip, Princess Letia took care of the bedding that only took up space.

The reason was simple.

It was because he thought he would not be able to sleep if the bedding was changed.

Honestly, it’s an ordeal not knowing what will happen, but seeing him bring his own bedding, he was a very optimistic person.

“Ah, if you want to sleep, be sure to ask me for permission.”

“yes?”

“I don’t like sudden things.”

It was Princess Letia who blushed and walked out of the cave.

“It’s also strange…”

And soon I realized what was wrong.

“No, Princess Letia, it will be troublesome if you go out at this time!”

“Ah, I guess. If I ever get lost… uh…”

Princess Letia quietly entered the bandit’s cave again.

“For now, you’ll have to leave things like serving to the coachman as usual.”

The attendant assigned to Princess Letia was a coachman.

Before leaving the ordeal, he was an attendant who looked after the second princess in the royal family.

“Then, I will be guarding the entrance to the den. Please call me if anything happens.”

“yes!”

I took a cross-legged position at the entrance of the den.

I didn’t really need to sleep.

I couldn’t have been without a thought.

‘It’ll be too boring.’

I thought of a way to survive the boring time.

I suddenly looked up at the sky.

There was a clear night sky.

It was dark but bright.

Many stars were shining brightly.

A large moon is floating.

A red moon floats beside it.

‘Should I count the stars?’

I quietly began to count the brightly shining dots.

And after a while, I gave up.

‘Too many…’

It’s a problem to count them all, and you can’t count them all in one week.

I thought it would be better to do something with a clear goal.

‘yes!’

I drew the exorcist sword.

Then, using telekinesis, he pulled out the thread.

‘Threads are interwoven to create thicker threads!’

It is a very good thing to increase the strength of the thread and pass my boring time.

‘Well, if the speed goes up, I might be able to weave a thread in the middle of the fight.’

I slowly started weaving the yarn.

It was slow at first, but it soon became possible to weave yarn at high speed.

And suddenly, looking around, I realized that the day had brightened.

“Ohhh… that’s fine.”

My skill at handling yarn has improved a lot.

However, a complication arose.

“I can’t go a week with this.”

Even if it was tomorrow, I thought I would master playing with yarn.

I sighed.

“I need to come up with something else ASAP.”

***

The second day of defending the dragon rare dawned.

Princess Letia approached me as I leaned against the wall for a moment and closed my eyes.

“uh? Weren’t you just sleeping?”

“no. I was just closing my eyes.”

“Ummm… is that so? But, if you’re tired, tell me. Because I will protect you.”

I couldn’t help but laugh at those words.

Then, Princess Letia seemed a little angry.

Princess Letia spoke to me with a sigh.

“What is the meaning of that laugh just now!”

“sorry. Unbeknownst to me…”

“I’m really pretty thin.”

Know.

Advanced Sword Expert at the age of 20.

it’s a good skill

Compared to geniuses, even if they were inferior, they were quite outstanding talents.

“all right.”

And at that moment, the energy I spread caught something.

“The princess is going in for a while.”

“yes? why?”

“The enemy.”

At my words, Princess Letia quietly entered the cave.

It was going to take some time to get here because I noticed the sign from a distance.

‘Starting with the upper level sword expert… three intermediate levels and five lower levels?’

It seemed like a mercenary.

After a while, Princess Letia came out of the cave again.

“Where the hell is the enemy?”

“Here he comes.”

A group of nine condescending men approached the den.

I told them

“Please stop.”

“Ohh… I think this is the correct answer?”

“That’s right, Captain.”

It didn’t look like he was lost or anything.

First of all, I was going to tell Princess Letia to go back into the cave.

“Princess…?”

Princess Letia, who had been sticking her head out until just now, entered the cave again.

It seemed pretty savvy.

There was a reason for letting Princess Letia into the cave.

“You’d better just die.”

I could tell from the aura they gave off, intuitively that they were not good people.

Thanks to having reached the level of a demigod, it is now possible to easily distinguish between good and evil.

The bandits here were neither good nor evil.

But those who appeared now were evil.

If my intuition was right, they would definitely ignore me.

“What if you don’t like it?”

I knew it.

“There will be no choice but to use force.”

“Ha ha ha, force? It’s fun.”

“Keuhehehe, captain, he is quite courageous, isn’t he? Shall I not kill you?”

They were quite cheeky.

“I warned you.”

“What, what if I warn you?”

“…”

I decided to use my sword right away if they move needlessly.

“Okay, I’ll tell you my plan for now. After hearing this, let’s see if it ends with a warning.”

“Oh, it looks like you’re trying to scare me properly. As expected, our captain!”

Their leader took a step in and started talking.

“My plan is…”

The leader’s words did not come out of his mouth.

The moment I stepped in, I immediately moved my sword.

And cut the head of the leader.

In an instant, the head and body separated.

The subordinates next to him were not awake.

“Quickly take your captain’s body and leave.”

The disposition of the rest of them must also be wicked.

But it wasn’t as good as the leader, so I decided to keep it alive.

In other words, the leader was a villain, and the rest were minor villains.

I just let it go because I didn’t have enough skills.

‘And rumors will only spread if you live.’

My warning is that if you are going to aim for dragon rare, you should aim for it with some level of skill.

If a high-ranking sword expert died with a single sword, at least a lower-ranking being would not come easily.

The rest of the guys were dumbfounded, so I shouted.

“What are you doing! It doesn’t go out very well!”

Everyone got tired of my screams and started to run away.

Abandoning their headdress.

“No, you guys should take your captain with you too!”

Then, some of those who ran away slowly approached and started to run away again with the leader’s body.

I used my telekinesis to clean up all the remaining bloodstains.

“Princess, everything is over.”

Then again, it was Princess Letia with only her hair sticking out.

“As expected… you’re amazing.”

“They are insignificant.”

“Hey…”

“Anyway, they’re just the beginning.”

Small pups would have lost interest in this dragon rare.

But more powerful people will come here.

If there’s one thing I’m worried about…

‘I’m afraid that strong people who aren’t interested in dragon rares will appear.’

Still, I didn’t think that the guys who ran away would be able to spread rumors that far, so I decided not to worry.
