"You want to hear a story?"

"Mm-hmm, if only you could play the piano. ”

“...... No, it's just a story, do you want to listen to it?"

"Then can you sing a lullaby when you're done telling the story? I like to listen to the one handed down by the elf bard Adilis. At that time, Rhodes sang in Elven language, and although he was not satisfied with it, I thought it was good. However, he taught me in the lingua franca because I didn't know Elvish. Then I'll teach you, as it goes, 'With a gentle melody, the nightingale dances, sings our sweet and lilting lullaby, never fears to be hurt, spells and magic are no more, and ......sleeps peacefully with our lilting lullaby.'"

"Forget it, let's just go to sleep. ”

"Don't, don't! Then, don't sing songs, just tell stories. ”

"Well, (what the hell am I here for?) I only have adventure stories. And we said okay, after listening to the story, don't wander around, let me rest quietly, you know?"

"I'm the most adventurous story! Are there dragons and princesses?"

"Nope. ”

"Is it the story of the 'Demon in a Bottle'?"

"It's not. ”

"That'll do well. ”

“......”

"Tell me soon, I can't wait. ”

"Ahem, let me think. Well~~~~, the hero of the story is called Ba, Basel......"

"Is that you?"

“...... No. Don't interrupt, or I won't talk about it. ”

"Shhhh I try to talk as little as possible. ”

"Ahem, Bussel is a Nord and an adventurer, and he has a very powerful sword, which his father gave him when he was an adult. When Basel's father handed him the sword, he said, 'Hey, young man, you're an adult from this day onwards, which means you can finally find your Elena to roll in the wilderness, if she wants to.' Needless to deny, I've seen your little moves behind the room. Again, this means that you need to feed yourself and take this long sword, which will not farm like a hoe, but will also bring you food. ’”

"Why do they want to roll in the fields and not be afraid of getting dirty?"

“...... I'm sorry, I shouldn't have told you this, I forgot you were still a kid. Forget about that. ”

"Oh, well, you go on. ”

"'I was actually going to give you a Nord tomahawk. 'Old Daddy Bassel continued to say to him, 'But you're not strong enough now, and though you're half a head taller than me, you're as thin as a desert kingdom. Forget it, don't talk about this. Anyway, from today onwards, you can go out and explore, you can go to Fort Lavent, Waldburg, or go to the capital of the kingdom, and break through the selection like me and become a Nord royal guard. Of course, you can also go to other countries, to the Kingdom of Griffons, the city-state of Duran, the Kingdom of Perero, or even further afield to the Holy Aratho, you name it. ’”

"So he set out on his own adventure?"

"No, not really. At first, Bussel didn't know where to go or what to do. Confused, he lived for several days in a wooded area not too far from the town. There are streams in the forest, berries and wild vegetables, as well as rabbits and wild boars. Rabbits, in particular, are not too difficult to catch, because Basel throws stones accurately. ”

"Is Bunny delicious? Unfortunately, Eve hasn't eaten it. ”

"It's delicious, it's best grilled. Just after living in the forest like a wild man for almost a week, Bassel suddenly spotted a passing caravan passing near the forest. Basel hoped that the caravan would take him with him, and he could go wherever he wanted, and he didn't have any goals anyway. At first, the caravan's bodyguards thought he was here to rob and almost shot him, but then they tried his martial arts, and felt that this young man who had just grown a fluffy beard on his face was really good, so they left him in the caravan. ”

"Isn't it time for war yet? I'm a little sleepy. ”

“...... It's almost there. Basel traveled with the caravan to many places, during which they encountered a large number of goblins, human bandits, bear goblins, gnolls, wolves, and more. The first prey Barcel killed was a gnoll, also on a dark and moonless night, when the caravan was sleeping in the wilderness. In the middle of the night, the night guard in charge of the guard suddenly sounded the alarm, and Barcel woke up from the warm woolen blanket, got up from the roof of the carriage in a panic, and by the light of the campfire, saw many, many shadows rushing towards them in the darkness. ”

"That was his first fight. He was so nervous that he couldn't find his weapon on the roof of the car for a long time. At this moment, a coyote took advantage of the momentum and jumped towards Basel on the roof of the car. The coyote's two front paws were on the edge of the carriage, and he fluttered for a long time trying to climb up, but during this time, Bussel just stared stunned, and he was a little overwhelmed by the fact that he had not found a weapon. The coyote finally climbed onto the roof of the car and bared his fangs at Basel, forcing him to pick up the woolen blanket and use it as a makeshift weapon. Only then did Basel realize that his sword was lying there quietly under the woolen blanket. ”

"Bussel is stupid. ”

“...... , can't say that, this is his first battle after all. ”

"He picked up his sword and killed the coyote?"

“...... No, the coyote was shot dead by his companions. The companion kept shooting arrows from the top of the other carriage and shouted at Bussel to keep him out of a daze. So Basel hurriedly picked up the long sword, took another deep breath, jumped out of the carriage, and joined the warband. ”

"The enemy facing Bassel was a gnolla armed with an iron axe and a round shield, and it howled loudly to intimidate Basel, but Bassel was not too panicked with a weapon in hand. His sword collided with the round shield, and he dodged the iron axe with his head. The Iron Axe was in hot pursuit, and Basel blocked, jumped, and fired back, slowly finding some of the feeling he had when he practiced with his dad before. Just as the Gnoll attacked with another fierce swing of the iron axe, Basel suddenly accelerated, dodged, and then cut off the claw of the Gnoll holding the iron axe with a sword, and then he turned around and cut off one of the enemy's hind legs when the two sides staggered, and the Gnoll fell to his knees with a scream, and was beheaded off by Basel. Blood splattered his face, slimy and stinking, but Bussel found it to feel good. ”

"Awesome! I love to hear stories like this! Bloodshed, beheading, etc. When Rhodes used to talk about war, he would simply say that this enemy was stabbed to death with a sword, or that enemy was destroyed, and it was not specific at all. ”

“...... Little girls should not be interested in fighting and killing, they are better off staying away from fighting and staying at home. Because they're not suited to that. ”

"Who said that the elf Adiris is very good at fighting, she has killed many villains and monsters, and she has also helped the queen of the kingdom of Tomily establish a state, and she has also followed the mage to other different planes, and she has also been to the Endless Abyss. And, Rod says she's still alive until now, and Adilis must be better than Bussel in your story!

"Cut, not necessarily, I still think Bussel is a little bit better. But I don't think they had the chance to compete. ”

"Then you can continue to tell the story of Bussel, anyway, it's better to listen to it than not to listen to it. ”

“...... After killing the Gnoll, Basel and his companions continue to clean up the other enemies. He became more and more proficient in fighting, even more powerful than he usually practiced, as if he was born to fight. Whether it's a gnoll, a coyote, or a large number of goblins, any enemy will fall in front of him within three swords. The battle lasted for a meal, and after most of the enemy had been killed, they retreated into darkness in a swarm. ”

"In the statistics of the results after dawn, Basel found that he had killed the most monsters in the entire caravan, even more than the bodyguard leader. The caravan owner was overjoyed and raised his salary to a whopping price of two gold coins a month. After that, Basel worked in the caravan for nearly two years, and was the number one bodyguard of the entire caravan. Then, tired of that life, he left the caravan and continued on his other adventures. ”

"And then?"

"And then, that's another story, and that's it for today. ”

"Let's talk about one more, just one!"

"Okay, let me rest for a while, I have other tasks tomorrow. ”
