Chapter 38: 38

After finishing the task of ascertaining what I had picked up, I felt signs of someone approaching me.\n

Hide Sora, who was slowly shaking after the meal, in her bag and gaze in the direction indicated.

Three men dressed like gatekeepers were seen coming this way.

I panic a little, but Sora’s already in the bag, so it won’t be a problem.

Some adventurers bring garbage directly to the dump, so there’s nothing strange about me being here.

And how did you get over here?

Maybe go around to the dump?

Grab a bag and walk out to the men to return to the village.

The three of them saw me, but there was nothing I could do to stop them.

Good.

Stop a little further away and look back.

They look at the entire dump and go straight into the woods.

“Maybe you’re looking around in the woods, too?

If so, it may not be possible to stay in the woods.

If it’s far from the village, it’s fine to sleep in the woods otherwise.

But there is a well managed square in the village of Latme.

And yet I can’t think of a reason to go out of my way to sleep in a dangerous forest.

What should I do?\n

Sleep deeper in the woods?

But I don’t know how far you’re looking around, and I’m concerned about the number of adventurers in this village.

I feel like I’m almost twice as sure as I’ve ever been in a village.

Then the encounter rate in the woods is higher, so I can’t let Sola out freely even in the woods.

With that said, you put Sora out of the bag more often as you approached the village.

Huh, there’s a lot of lookouts and adventurers.

If it’s a big village, is this what it looks like everywhere?

We’re going to town next, so we need to find something fundamental.

When I go to the entrance and exit of the village, this time a different person stands as a gatekeeper.

I wondered if they would ask me anything again, but now I could enter the village without being told anything.

At first, could I have been suspicious of behavior?

I try not to act prominently, but I’ll be careful.

There are still a lot of people looking around the village, and some people looking around.

It’s dangerous to let Sola out in the village.

I go into one butcher shop looking around a lot.

To buy dried meat and see if you’re buying meat.

“There you are.”

When I entered the store, an elderly aunt came out of the back. \nI look around the store a little nervous and look for dried meat.

There are two types of dried meat found: sachets and large sachets, which seem to be a little better value for money.

Get 300 dals out and buy a large bag.

“Excuse me. I need to ask you something.”

“What?

“Is dried meat a wild rat?

“You’re a wild rat and a wild rabbit. What you just bought me is a wild rabbit, which is a little cheaper because it’s bigger and easier to take than a wild rat. And then there’s the wild bat, but it’s expensive because it’s hard to catch.”

I heard there’s a variety of dried meat in town and surrounding villages, but it’s true.

And I thought it was a wild rabbit, or a wild mouse.

Stare at the dried meat purchased.

… I can’t tell the difference because it’s dried meat.

“If you come hunting, can you buy me some meat?

“Sure! But if it’s fresh enough,”

“Okay.”

“Is there one big hunter?

“Yes.”

“Yes, there’s an animal around here with a fang called a slightly troublesome boar, be careful”

\nLooking inside, there seems to be a lot of adventurers out there.

“You’re buying something?

Suddenly I was called out, so I pressed my mouth, which was about to scream, and looked back.

“Oh, bad. I didn’t mean to surprise you.”

Behind him was a man who was a gatekeeper at the entrance and exit of the village.

Next to it was a strange man with him.

“Don’t surprise the kid.”

Cure the louder heart with a deep breath as you see a strange man paying attention to the gatekeeper.

“Hahaha, bad bad bad. So, you’re buying something?

“Yes, a used tent for one”

“Tent?… I didn’t know you wouldn’t be paid when you were kicked out of the village, sounds like the plight of Ratmi Village is true”

The village of Latomi in distress?

Although I wasn’t wealthy, I don’t think the village had so much trouble because of the specialties.

“That’s right! I’ll introduce you. It’s my father’s shop with good arms.”

With that said, he grabs my hand and pulls momentum well and walks out.

They decided to introduce me to the store for some reason.

However, the hand grabbed is a little sore because of the different strides.
