184 Chapter 12-3 pussy

"Lyon, you only understand that what you did was a step wrong and endanger the position of everyone in this village right now!

"Sorry......"

The suggestion lion was noticed by Chris, who came in a hurry. It just seemed like Chris couldn't get out as strong as he always did, thanks to me and Albert stopping Chris the minute he saw Chris, telling him why Lion stuck him in a bunch of goblins (but what changed him to beautify Lion's behavior), and including Cain telling Lion not to say anything but 'I'm sorry' in that gap.

Incidentally, what I said in defence of Lyon was, 'Thanks to Lyon's advance, Goblin couldn't get close to the village', 'I took the initiative to defend the village in an attempt to improve the reputation of the Borderline Uncle as Lyon'... In fact, in a conversation with the village chief, he said, "'How far can I trust Uncle Borderline?' Because of things like that, they built walls and so on to enhance the village's self-defense." Chris thought that there was a reason for Lyon's arbitrariness.

"Looks like Lion did a great job."

Grandpa, who had anticipated the timing in the air, came down as Mr. Chris' attention ended. Except for me, I was surprised no one seemed to notice Grandpa in the sky. Because of that, I still said something. Mr. Chris, who had done so, completely missed the timing, and as a result his attention to Lion ended there.

"I've explored the perimeter of this village as far as I can see, but nothing could have been more amazing about this village than the goblins rolling here."

Upon hearing Grandpa's report, some of the villagers who had been rushing back to inform the village.

"So, Lion. What are you going to do with these goblins' bodies?

"What are we going to do... dig a hole in there and throw it in there?

From Goblin's body, you can't take that much valuable area, and it may be bought in some cities to fertilize, but there won't be any use in this village.

"I think that's fine with the body, but what about the Devil's Nucleus?

"Ahhh... I know it's going to be about a penny, but to be honest, it's hard to take it out. Yes! Somebody tell the village chief and bring in a few villagers with demolition experience. So you can take the demon nucleus as part of the village, so you can redeem it to fund the banquet."

The remaining villagers were reluctant at first because of the demons defeated by the aristocracy (Lyon), but when they found out that they did not want them for real, they began to dismantle them with those who were there. Even when I said dismantling, all I had to do was cut open the goblin's chest and take out the demon nucleus, so I quickly finished processing about thirty goblins. Goblin's body was then thrown into the hole I made during the demolition and burned until it turned to ash.

When I finished everything and went back to the village, a large number of villagers were waiting for Lyon to return at the entrance. Rion's rampage, arguably an eight-win hit, was a heroic act to protect ourselves from villagers who didn't know it, and seemed far enough to plunge our distrust of the Borderline Uncle family.

And speaking of welcoming in the village, it was a feast of the villagers in general, as was the case in the village of Kukri, where Lion was welcomed as the next lord and hero, and mottled by moths. From old men and uncles and aunts...

Speaking of 'young' in this village now, he refers to around thirty years after both men and women, and more than that, 'young' in the lower age, both men and women are out of the village or are already married. In other words, there were no 'single women' of the right age for Lion.

"That's terrible..."

"That's too harsh..."

Cain, who usually laughs so hard here, would also mean that he's in such a sad situation that he can't do that to a boulder.

"I'm starting to feel sorry for me too for the boulder... I can't believe I don't have a girl in it even though it's the hottest situation I know..."

Cain, on the other hand, Chris, too, seems to have nothing but sympathy for Rion right now.

"Well, as a 'man' I may have been sorry, but as a 'next lord' it was too much of an achievement, wasn't it? This village seems to interact with surrounding villages and cities..."

We enjoyed the prepared dishes as we watched the praised lions in the centre of the villagers.

"Sorry, Tenma... I can't do this anymore..."

"Okay. Cain, change with Lion."

"Roger that... Lion, you should get some sleep."

The day after the banquet in honor of Lyon, we resumed our journey to Kukri Village as planned, but Lyon was struck by a terrible hangover because he kept drinking the liquor poured by the villagers at the banquet yesterday. Still, the villagers were dropping themselves off at the entrance to the village, so Lion continued to wave himself out of the throne.

And earlier, the villagers near the entrance were so far away that they couldn't see, that they wished for a change.

"I asked the village chief about the direction of Kukri village and the village along the way, so I don't think he's going in the wrong direction. Besides, if you get near Kukri village, you might find out Grandpa, and Shiloumal might remember the smell, so why don't you figure it out?

If that's not the case, if I keep using Exploration, I'll know about a dozen kilometers of geography, so it's possible to look for something that will serve as a sign. I just don't want to do everything possible because I'm tired...

"Tenma, what are you making from earlier?

After I took turns with Lyon for about an hour, I also took turns, and when I was encouraging the craftsmanship in the carriage, Amur spoke to me a long time ago. If it had been Amur before, he would have tried to hold on to me at the same time as he spoke to me, so maybe Mr. Leni's educational achievements are coming out.

"Thought I'd use the frog material I knocked down yesterday to make a hunting tool"

The ingredients in front of you are the 'tree bars formed on the letter Y', 'frog muscles' and 'animal skins'. The frog's muscles are prefabricated into thin strings, and they're going to combine to create a 'slingshot'. Well, as far as I'm concerned, "pussy" sticks better than "slingshot," but I consider it a weapon or a hunting tool, not a toy, so I made it a "slingshot" with a more weapon-like name.

"Here's how you tie this, tie the string... for once, did it take shape?

Bi-fold about five centimeters of square skin, drill a hole in each end of it, tie it through a string, and tie the other side of the string to the tip of the wooden stick to complete the "Slingshot" prototype. Even when it comes to prototyping, it doubles the strength of the string by folding the string into a hole and tying it in a way that makes the opposite side twist on the front wheel, so that's going to be quite powerful.

"Looks like there's nothing wrong with an empty shot."

I tried pulling a few times, but I didn't see any particular problem. Later I just actually try to fly the balls, but it's not good to fly the balls in the carriage on the boulder, so I decided to be patient and bag them... but Amur and Chris got me interested and took them somewhat forcefully.

I thought Amur's behavior might be offensive to Leni, but when I asked him how to use it unexpectedly, Leni was also intrigued to go and watched "Slingshot" with them.

After watching the three of them, I predicted what they would say next, so I decided to make a mass production of "Slingshot" before they told me. And there are two mass-produced 'slingshots'. It turned out to be three in conjunction with what I made earlier, but those three fit into the hands of three people who were looking at the first one with interest.

"Albert, Cain. A little early, but find me a place to rest. It doesn't have to be anywhere near the water, just as soon as possible."

"Hmm? Okay."

"Sounds like something happened."

Cain, who guessed the situation, asked me if it was okay with the rock that I could see nearby. There, pebbles and targets instead of balls are going to be gobbled up, and it looks just right for a 'slingshot' try and shoot.

"Right there, please"

"Rikai."

And a few minutes later, as the carriage arrived on the rocks stopped, the three of them got off the carriage, targeted the nearby rocks and started trying and shooting 'slingshots'.

"This is funny!

"It's perfect for a hidden weapon in a time of need."

"For infiltrators like me, this size is good to carry. The power is slightly weaker, but if you think it's meant to poke a blind eye or a void, it doesn't seem like a big deal."

Looks like Amur had a toy feel, but the other two seemed to have a decent purpose. Indeed, the size you can carry is also the strength of 'slingshots'. For that matter, compared to other flying tools like bows and arrows, the power can be increased by increasing or thickening the number of rubber (the frog's muscles instead of), which is the source of power. Besides, if you change the balls to something pointy ahead like an arrow, or use the arrow like a crossbow, your killing ability will increase even further. Well, I've never used arrows in "slingshots," so it's unclear if they can be used properly in practice.

The three of them had since confirmed the performance of the 'slingshot' even after finishing their early lunch. And I created a new 'slingshot' with those three sideways.

The new model improves power, durability and precision. Changes with the prototype increased the substitute rubber (frog muscles), the body connecting the substitute rubber was made of magic iron, and the handheld part was shaped like a knife pattern. By making the body part and the handle like a knife, the patterned part can be adapted to the size of the user, making it easier to grip, so the precision has increased.

"This is Jeanne's. This is Aura's."

They saw Amur and the others using it as a flicker, but the three of them didn't notice the gaze, so they gave up and prepared for lunch. I didn't mean to improve my performance instead, but I originally intended to make a 'slingshot', assuming hunting in dense woods where bows and arrows were hard to use and weapons for women who were weaker than men. By the way, the three of us who took the prototype first are beyond the average female muscle strength (Leni is a little bit, I guess, but Amur and Chris are quite beyond), so they're not very helpful.

"Thanks, Tenma!

"Dear Tenma, thank you!

"For once, I'll tell you, don't basically point it at people. It's good to use it to protect your opponents and yourself, but this is a weapon that can kill people, so keep that in mind."

I told them to sound like the three who took the prototype, not just the two in front of me, but the two of the three in the prototype won't make much sense because they seem attracted to their potential as weapons. Well, you just have to keep it in your head that it's that dangerous.

The three of the prototypes seemed to envy the 'slingshot' they had virginated up, but since they were the ones who chose the prototype, they decided not to accept the return or exchange.

"Nice ~... that sounds interesting ~..."

There was another guy behind me who was about to want a 'slingshot', but I felt something was at stake when I gave it to him, so I said, "I'll make it next time I get Chris' permission," but Cain's new gear didn't materialize because Chris refused not to get an improved model.

"It's simple to make, so if you want to make it, I think anyone can make it."

"No, because you don't have the key frog material, it's not that easy to make. The material of the familiar frog is all Tenma has..."

I don't care what you say, I can't say without Chris' permission, Cain glanced at Chris and gave up sighing. By the way, Chris, whom Cain saw, was just asking to borrow an improved version of Aura's.

"Don't play, let's get ready to leave!

Grandpa's sip and the faces he had played in 'Slingshot' until then rushed to get ready. It should be noted that Mr. Chris was unable to borrow a few more places because it was difficult to negotiate with Aura. However, if you are Amur, I have asked Jeanne to try the improved model several times. Leni had tried everything in her prototype to see if she could manage to improve it.

"Nevertheless, Tenma. They took the prototype completely, but you're glad?

"I ask the other way around, Cain. Oh, come on. You think you can take it back from Chris and the others? Mr. Leni may honestly give it back, but I don't think the other two are gonna let go."

I don't know if I would only ask Leni to return it, so I decided to give up on the prototype. Well, I returned the payback in the form of not making an improvement for the three of us. Besides, if I'm going to make it anyway, I'm going to make my share when I get back to King's Capital because I've decided that I should make it with proper equipment and incorporating the opinions of my main job.

"So is that. Especially my senior face when I asked for my permission... I was laughing, but it was so powerful."

In that case, there will be another request for improvement after returning to Wang Du. Besides, when it comes to making it in the Wang capital, there will be at least three people I know who will surely tell me to make it. Top of this country, royal daughters, army greats...

"Well, if I have to, if I dedicate myself first to that guy, will I get a little grown up?

If you take the first item in Wang Du to Maria so that she can be the point of contact for future requests for the production of 'Slingshot', the three requests of Wang Du will be grown up. Where Maria hasn't seen it, she'll be right all the time...

"Anyway, you just have to think about it when you get back to King's Capital. That's right, we have to get going."

"Right. Senior Chris is almost done cleaning up, and if we're late, they'll say what..."

That's why Cain and I hurried to clean up our share and rendezvous.

"Tenma. Perhaps the day after tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, we will arrive in Kukri village"

My grandfather, who worked for you, said that by pointing at the mountain he could see ahead. Grandpa said, on the other side of the mountain in front, there is the 'Forest of the Elders'.

"Well, even though I say 'The Great Forest', from there to Kukri village, there is still a distance. Might as well take a break in front of that mountain today."

From there, they go through the foothills and then travel along the 'Great Forest', so there's a chance that a strong demon might appear. Therefore, it was advisable to reveal the night in front of the mountains where there was little danger, and to pass through dangerous places in the light.

"If Grandpa says so, maybe we should do that. If Ryden really runs, he won't be caught up with a bit of a soft-hearted demon, but that's not the case with carriages. If you're bad, you might break it, and some of the demons who act in the herd will ambush you."

That's the kind of "Dragon Snake" that used to attack Shiloumal's parents. It can also be attacked by herds against superior demons, so I want to avoid camping near dangerous places if possible.

"Well, then it's settled."

When I got here, Grandpa was brighter to the surrounding geography than Lion, so I decided to leave all the rest places and such to Grandpa.

Lion, who has guided us this far to the boulder, was also in favour of it first, saying that it was more secure to rely on his grandfather's memory and experience than on the map of the Borderline Uncle. Well, I guess it feels like I said my shoulder load came down because I was directing with knowledge close to the burning blade so far.

"Has Master Tenma ever been around here?

"No, basically, I've only been around Kukri Village. I used to play in the Old Forest, but when I went to the back, my dad or grandpa was mostly with me... that said, you only went to Russell City once. When the zombies attacked me, I called for help."

I went to the back in silence a few times and everyone was mad at me... or something, and I kind of looked sorry for Lion. Maybe you're thinking "end of the line, part of the subordination…" or something.

"Lyon. It's over now, so he said he had nothing to worry about. Neither does Chris look weird when he gets stuck."

"Hey! What's a weird face!

Chris may have remembered when he met his mother and father. With the exception of me and Grandpa in this, Chris is the only one who knows about Kukri Village, so I guess I got those feelings.

"Whatever it is, stop grieving more than me or Grandpa. I don't know how to react."

My light-mouthed, somewhat lighter carriage air, but Leon and Mr. Chris seemed to be doing something impossible. "Wouldn't it be that easy to go back? Well, you'll be refreshed when you wake up asleep," he said, about tomorrow morning, if he expects it to go back to normal...

"Die now!

"Fuck you!

The place Grandpa had planned to be in the camp had become a goblin residence, ravaged by distractions by two people who were depressed in the carriage.

"No, it's not a bad thing to exorcise the goblins... those two look worse"

"If you try to be the goblins, you'll feel like you've been attacked by a demon like an ogre where you lived in peace." "Now Leon has been saved twice by the goblins... that's a strange expression."

"Exactly, evil brake!

"Ma'am, I just wanted to say how to say that... but that's what you can't help saying"

Followed me, followed by Cain, Albert and Amur. Leni tried to complain about Amur's expression, but he couldn't help but see how those two were doing.

"Well, destroying Goblin's residence is not a natural act as an adventurer or a policing knight... and it seems impossible to camp here today."

The planned spot, which was originally dirty because of the Goblins, had been transformed into a tragic place by the two activism, and, no matter what you think, was no longer the kind of place that could be made today's camp.

"I have no choice. Let's go a little further into today's camp."

"This is going to take some time to process here, so I'll make it for dinner in the carriage."

With this place scattered on boulders, it is a violation of manners to travel to the next planned camp site, so we decided to make dinner so that we could eat as soon as we arrived.

"I'll help too"

"Mmm!"

"Me too."

"Me too!

Immediately Mr. Leni said he would help, and shortly thereafter Amur also raised his hand, and Jeanne and Aura continued, but he didn't need that much help because the carriage was a little narrow to do in large numbers.

"Then Jeanne will help me, Aura will clean the bath, and Leni and Amur will have the drinks and hand plush to give to those two... no, Leni will help me and Jeanne will take charge of the two with Amur"

I didn't mean to treat the customer, but somehow I tried to shake Leni's easy job and immediately realized that was a bad idea. Anyway, Lion's first distraction was caused by Mr. Leni. It is not good for both sides to bring the cause to the boulder closer to the lion. That's why I decided to change the person in charge of Jeanne and Leni.

"What I plan to do is make miso soup with frog meat... what else should I make?

"Speaking of miso soup, they're white rice, aren't they? Besides, pickles are a classic in the south...... don't you all get tired of all the miso soup?

When camping, you will also need a night meal for those on watch, so you often make it with dinner. For this reason, the juice that can be made in large quantities and can be reheated becomes a classic dish. And even if I just took stock and added miso, the miso soup that would cook was a classic when I was in charge of cooking. Well, the fact that the spirit is ex-Japanese has a lot to do with it. By the way, the next point of a dish I often make is stew, but miso soup is easier and quicker, so it really makes a big difference and is second to none.

"Well, no one's complaining about the camp or the food I thought about, and when I said it, I just told them not to feed them."

I said it would be fine if it tasted good, there would be nothing to complain about because I am just a member of the adventurous temperament. In the first place, if you want something to eat, you should be requesting it. At least those who shy away from such things are not accompanied on this journey.

"Then Mr. Leni would like some miso soup. I make rice balls and shallow pickles."

I really want to prepare something like pickle, but I decided to make a shallow pickle because I don't have one. Well, it's an easy thing to rub in finely chopped kelp and salt at the ends of ingredients cabbage, carrots and other vegetables and leave them for a while.

Later, use the rice I had stored in my magic bag to grip even the rice balls. Most of all, that's not going to be enough, so I also cooked some new rice at the same time.

"Mr. Tenma, I'm hungry."

Chris, who annihilated the goblins and smudged them in the bath, came to remind him of the meal as he wiped his hair.

"The food itself is ready, but wait till everyone is ready"

Right now, after Chris, who was the most bathed, the other women are in the process of using the carriage bath. And the men who can't use the carriage bath because of it, they put out the tub they used to build a little further away, and there they were bathing.

"Eh."

Meanwhile, Mr. Chris was sneaking up on the rice balls.

"Well, that's good... it's kind of like Amur"

"Ugh..."

I was re-educating Amur, and I didn't feel comfortable doing the same thing as Amur. Most importantly, Amur is no longer doing those things these days, so if Amur finds out, he might lose Mr. Chris' position.

"Tenma, you. Please keep this a secret..."

"I don't mind... Aura's watching"

Like Mr. Chris, Aura was sneaking up here to see if she was after a stumble. And I saw Mr. Chris' attempted stuffing.

"Aura, I need some."

Aura tried to escape on the verge of Mr. Chris turning, but it was a little late, whether she felt she had come across a bad spot.

And Aura seems to have been taken to the edge of the camp by Mr. Chris, where he negotiated a moratorium. I just don't know how that negotiation took place. Speaking of which, Aura looked tired after the negotiations and Chris was in a good mood, which would have been the result Chris wanted.
