206 姿を見せぬ謎の魔物




Zeraphitis gave me a ride to the nearest village, which was surprisingly peaceful.

I'm not sure if the problem has been solved. I'm sorry, ............, but I heard there was some kind of demon coming from the royal city of Vintaria.

What do you mean you came from the capital .........?

In the event that you've got a lot of time, you'll be able to take a look at the following tips to help you get started.

"Are you sure this is the village of the child in the letter?

"I can't read. ......... Show it to the chief's house at the far end. The chief's house.

"The chief's house, thank you. Thank you.

Thank you very much." ...I followed the instructions and went through the village.

It's a surprisingly old village, ...... with fine thatched roofs and paddy fields. ......... Is that rice they're planting? It's a little strange for a rice paddy. .... The leaves are very pale.

The color of the leaves is very pale, but the stems look very sturdy and thick, and if you are used to seeing rice fields in Japan, the difference will definitely make you feel uncomfortable.

Is there a lack of nutrients in this thick-stemmed variety?

In general, the more fertilizer a rice plant receives, the darker its green color becomes, and the less fertilizer it receives, the lighter its color becomes. At first glance, it may seem that it is better to use more fertilizer and store more nutrients, but the more nutrients in the leaves, the more locusts will gather and eat the leaves, and the earlier the fruits grow, the more birds will damage them. However, if the leaves are nutritious, locusts will gather and eat the leaves, and if the fruit is harvested too early, it will be damaged by birds. There are many farmers who carefully cultivate their rice by watching the surrounding rice fields.

For now, let's go to the chief's house. The chief's house! There's no point in taking a detour, is there? There's no point in stopping.

I managed to find the chief's house while scurrying around, and called out from the empty door.

"Excuse me, are you sure this is the chief's house?

Inside, several women and an old man were having a discussion, and all eyes turned to Masaru when they heard an unfamiliar voice.

I'm Masaru, I'm from King's Landing. I've been told that you've been affected by a demon, who should I talk to about it?

"From King's Landing? I'm already here. It's been a month since I sent the letter and I think I've only just reached King's Landing.

Oh, it hasn't been long since the letter arrived in King's Landing, but the god Zelaphitis has brought me here. ...

I've been told by Adelina that no one in this world uses the name of a god to commit fraud, so I'm going to push the name of Zelaphitis all over the place to make him understand. I've actually been sent to Zelaphitis, so I'm not lying.

"Now, let me explain the current situation in the village: .......... I'll tell you what's going on in the village.

The mayor's story was so long that it made me sleepy, so I'll translate it as follows: Livestock are being attacked by a mysterious monster. The demon seemed to be a carnivore, and there was a lot of blood at the scene, and it had dragged something with it. Three people from the village have already been killed, and since there have been no such cases in the past, they think that some unknown demon has come down from the mountains.

I see... almost 30% of the livestock has already been eaten and the livelihood is becoming unsustainable. I see.

"Considering the pace at which they're being attacked, I'm thinking it's one demon. It's true.

It is true that there is not more than one attack at a time, so the enemy is one, and if it attacks and eats goats and people every day, it would be a very big eater. Even a bear with such a large body does not eat its prey every day.

So, if you want to see the most recent place where the demon hunted, please visit .... "Okay.

Okay, I'll have the village hunter take you there. ...... So, when will the main group arrive?

"The main team? ......... Oh, it's just me, right?

Just one? That's also .......... I'm the only one!

The villagers showed obvious disappointment... and rightly so, since it was only one young man who was sent against an unknown demon.

I don't want to tell you to relax, but don't worry. In the meantime, Vintaria's largest force has arrived,........., so please use this wheat. Please use this wheat.

He took out five 20 kilograms of wheat from the item box and piled them up haphazardly.

"Where did this come from? Where did this come from?

I'll be ready in a bit. I'll be ready in a bit. I'll be ready in a bit.

"I'll be ready in a bit," he said, and went outside to put on the useless adamantite armor and spear he'd prepared for the battle against the pinphants.

In the event that you have any questions concerning where and how to use the internet, you can contact us at the following web site: .......... There are not many tall plants in this area. ...... There is a large rice field, or ......... the rice plants are at most 50-70cm tall. I'm not sure.

"Are you interested in rice paddies?

I'm not sure if you've seen this before, but I've seen it before.

"Yes, that's rice, isn't it?

"Yes, that's rice, isn't it?" "Yes, she said there aren't many places that grow it, did you know that? We usually eat this rice as porridge, it's the staple food around here. It's a staple food around here.

I was wondering if you could share some of the seeds with me when you are ready to harvest. Rice is my favorite food, too. I love rice.

I'll bring you some of last year's crop later, if you like. You've come so far for this village, I can't let you leave empty-handed. Thank you.

Thank you very much. ......... By the way, the color of the rice seems to be a little weak.

No, the rice is usually a deeper green, but for some reason this year it's not as colorful and growing slowly. No.

Have you noticed anything else unusual? Did you notice anything else unusual, even small things? Have you noticed anything else unusual?

By the way, ......... someone told me there were fewer frogs and worms this year. Then, when I listened carefully at night, I heard no frogs, so I thought it was strange. We were talking about it.

Short grass and trees, but no enemies to be found: ...... paddy fields: ...... fewer frogs: .......

"Right! Tell everyone! I'm not sure what to do. They use the waterways in the rice paddies, which is why they are so hard to find!



An aquatic creature so voracious that it could change ecosystems: ...... Masaru had one idea.

"I hope you're still wandering around as a larva. ......... When you're an adult, you're in trouble. ....... I don't know.

Masaru grew impatient with the unseen demon.
