"Your Excellency, what you have commanded has been done."

A day ago, in the fiefdom of South Risifus, the study of the Lord's Castle was dimly lit.

The Captain of the Guard, Reinhardt, half-knelt on the ground, gave the following with a blank face:

"We found the lair of an extremely bloodthirsty manic monster in that forest, and led it deep into the forest with a special secret medicine, and in the process, two loyal and brave guards gave their lives......"

"I don't care if a few people die."

The young nobleman, who had hidden himself in the shadows, interrupted him by speaking:

"All I care about is if this monster can kill all the greenskins and the damn woman."

Especially when he said the last few words, the blood-red Viscount Robinette spoke in a very resentful tone, as if he wanted to choose someone to devour.

"Please rest assured, with the combat power of those alien barbarians, no matter how many there are, there is only one possibility of being unilaterally slaughtered in the face of that monster."

Even with the strength of the Guardian Commander and the strength of Nanrisiphus, it is not easy to deal with that kind of large, thick-skinned and irrational monster, not to mention the goblin who was able to escape from the danger by the human girl who coerced Robinette last time.

However, there are still possible variables......

The chief of the guard, who had finished answering in a deep voice, got up slowly, and when he turned to leave, he heard the mournful voice of the young nobleman behind him:

"Of course that's true for those stupid greenskins, but I don't believe that a brainless monster can slaughter that human woman."

"Your Excellency means ......"

"You take the man and follow the monster."

The corners of Viscount Robinette's pale face flashed with an obscene smile:

"If she's lucky enough to be alive, and bring her back alive, I'll let her know what the price to pay for trampling on Viscount Robinette von Conrad......"

The young nobleman did not notice the fleeting disgust and hatred on the face of the chief of the guard with his back to him, whose expression had been numb for so long, and which had finally been replaced by a numbness that was powerless to change anything.

"How are your wife and children doing in South Lysypheus lately?"

Viscount Robinette, who seemed to sense something, changed the subject, and greeted the family of the chief of the guard in a gentle tone.

"Thanks to your care, they're doing well here." The chief of the guard, who had to turn around and kneel down again, replied slowly.

"Your parents seem to live in a village near the royal capital, and I remember that they are very old." The young nobleman chuckled and leaned over slightly, patting him on the shoulder, "The air in South Lysyphus is good, and the surrounding scenery is good, why don't you bring them here?" A change of environment may be better for the elderly. ”

This sentence is like an inquiry, but it is an unquestionable commanding tone.

The head of the guard bowed, and the young nobleman in front of him pressed his hand on his shoulder and waited for an answer.

"Thank you for your grace."

After receiving a satisfactory answer, Viscount Robinette spoke reservedly:

"Your efforts will be equally rewarded, and now your annuity will be three times as good as before, and you will have the most fertile arable land in South Richsyphus, a brand new mansion, and a wealthy shop......

"But don't forget, I'll give you more." He said the last sentence with a sinister smile, "You're just one of my dogs." ”

The young nobleman who was high above didn't notice the captain of the guard, who was half-kneeling on the ground, his right fist clenched tighter and tighter.

"Well done the village chief Ergou!"

The goblin hunter clutched the stone spear in his hand raised his arms and shouted.

"One more time! If you take another fireball like the one before, this damn monster won't have the power to resist! ”

During the chase, the old goblin village chief who heard this title again was in a trance.

At that time, after learning the meaning of the human name that the adventurer had given him, he was depressed for a long time after being ridiculed by his companions, but when he asked again, he got this reply:

"It's not a nice name, indeed." The adult, who always smiled kindly, said, "But in the place where I used to live, this is also said in ancient times. ”

"'May my son be foolish and reckless, and have no disasters and no difficulties to reach the minister'"

"In the past, when people were having a bad time, there was a high chance that the newborn baby would die, and people at that time thought it was because of the devil's trouble."

"What are demons and monsters?" At that time, the old village chief raised his own questions.

"It's a creature that's as terrifying as a monster."

"Your Excellency, have you ever seen a monster?"

“(⊙o⊙)… I haven't seen ...... either."

"And the name carries a person's fate, and people think that a child with this ordinary, cheesy or even ugly name will be rejected by demons and monsters, and they will be able to spend their lives smoothly and safely." The adventurer smiled, "If you don't think it's good, just treat it as if I was talking nonsense, don't take it to heart." ”

"Do you have a cheap name?"

"That's right." Speaking of this, the adult suddenly looked a little embarrassed, "When I was a child, my mother always called me a big dog......"

Why, why did you die in that cave......

The brief trance did not affect the speed at which the green-skinned old dwarf could condense the fireball, and after a few breaths, he shot the fireball again at the monster that was still running wildly around him.

This time he was aiming for his knee, and as the adult had described, the Gonboharu joint in the runway lost its balance at the moment of the blow to the joint, and after many weeks of tumbling in the air, it slammed into a boulder, and the smoke rose to the height of the treetops.

The goblin hunters who were trying their best to arrive not far away cheered.

After suffering such a heavy blow, even a monster as strong as Gangboharu has no power to act, right?

The old village chief closest to the monster still hadn't let his guard down.

Compared to the average lifespan of a goblin, he was already an out-and-out old man, and it was the magic and martial arts taught by the adventurer that strengthened his physique and extended his lifespan, allowing him to stand up and protect his village at an age when most of his peers of the same race were too old to move.

The green-skinned old dwarf, whose chest was undulating, estimated the remaining magic power in his body and the current state of mental exhaustion, and gave up his plan to continue condensing magic.

He silently pulled out the dagger on his waist that was handmade like a work of art by a famous craftsman, put on an attacking posture, and waited for the first time when the smoke and dust dissipated, and then went up to mend the knife to the unknown situation of Gangboharu.

Everyone's magic and spirit have limits, and this is a phrase that the adventurer has emphasized from beginning to end in the process of teaching him magic.

He knew that his previous fireball spells had failed to inflict any fatal damage on Gangboharu, and unlike the hunters who cheered and thought that the trouble was gone, the village chief clearly realized that the monster that even the adventurer had not been able to completely kill could not be because of those few small fireballs-

The rising smoke and dust were torn apart by the wind in an instant, and the violent Gangboharu straightened up his huge body, trying to solve this biggest trouble with a single Tarzan crushing kill.

The small body of the old goblin village chief was shrouded in the huge shadow of the erect monster, and it seemed that there was no way to escape.

Do you have to close your eyes and wait for death when you encounter an enemy you can't beat?

"If you don't die, fight!" The adventurer seemed to feel very ridiculous when he heard this question, "If you fight, you have a chance to live, why should you close your eyes and wait for death?" ”

"We're always fighting for something." The adult smiled and stroked his head.

"What are you fighting for?"

"For the sake of ...... Go home. ”

After a momentary loss of consciousness, the adventurer-sama said, "I believe that you will find your own answer one day." ”

The figure of Halu who had just been planted shook slightly, like a mountain about to collapse.

"Your Excellency...... Forgot to say. The green-skinned old dwarf seemed to be talking to himself, "I've always liked the name you gave me.......

"And ...... Those words about fighting! ”

The hunters who came not far away saw the small green figure beneath Gang Bo Haru, and with the last of their strength, tried to stop this from happening with the wooden arrows they fired.

With a loud bang, the hunters watched as the figure disappeared under the weight of the massive monster.

Is that how the village chief died.......

No

Of course not!

After the heavy pressure, Gangboharu did not turn his head at the first time and continue to advance in the direction of the village, but shook his head desperately, as if he wanted to get rid of something in his head.

"It's the village chief of Ergou!" The sharp-eyed hunter noticed the figure on the monster's head, "The village chief is not dead yet!" We can stop it! ”

The Goblin Village Chief, who vaguely heard the shouts of the hunters below, smiled bitterly while stabilizing his figure:

"It's a strange name......

The green-skinned old dwarf who stabbed the dagger in his hand into Gangboharu's head squeezed out the last energy in his body, and the power of each thorn was the same as the last time.

Even though Gangboharu's skin was so thick that even the fireball technique failed to cause any substantial damage, the severe pain caused by the continuous accumulation of injuries on the top of his head still made the already irrational monster more and more crazy, and its body continued to jump and fall to the ground with a thunderous noise, but it still couldn't get rid of the goblin on the skull that was harvesting its life.

"My lord, I've found my answer."

The small, greenish, wrinkled face revealed what humans call a resolute look.

"I'm going to protect everyone in the village."
