I leave the inn and stand tall.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The inn I stayed at in Hatada village was nice, but the morning bread at the inn in Hatau village was not as good.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I already miss that taste.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Hmm?"　What's wrong?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'll never forget Mr. Salifa's morning bread."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The druid smiles at my words and pats my head.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

He said, "You'll have to put up with the black bread for the time being."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Indeed, black bread is black bread and delicious.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It is especially good when dipped in milk soup.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

But I prefer fluffy bread.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I heard that Mr. Druid also likes black bread very much.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Shall we go?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yeah, it's a full-fledged trip today.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It took me two days to get here to Hatada village, which was unscheduled.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

And I was carried.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

So today is the real start of my journey.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I've got to keep my head on straight.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

You're doing it again.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I followed Mr. Druid's gaze and saw the commotion in the square.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

There really are too many short-tempered people.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

If they're so anxious, why don't they just move on and make some money?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Can't they do that too because their pride gets in the way?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

If so, it's too troubling.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

When we leave here, we'll be in the woods for about 20 days, is there anything we're missing?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It's only been two days since we left Hatau village, so we'll be fine."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

We walk through the plaza and down the main street toward the gate.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

We were almost there when we saw a group of vigilantes and adventurers gathering.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I wondered what was wrong, but they looked a little nervous.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Is something wrong?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yeah, we better make sure."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The druid calls out to an adventurer nearby.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Excuse me. Is something wrong?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What is it?"　Don't you know?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, do you know anything about it?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Several people around the adventurer who spoke to him turned to look at us.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

All of their faces are a little tense.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It seems that something really happened.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Can we leave today?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It seems the demons that were supposed to be deep in the forest have moved on.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Demon migration?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yeah, I wish they were just demons, but they were demons with enormous magical power.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

A demon with enormous magical power is on the move?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It could be dangerous to travel.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Even Mr. Druid wrinkled his brow.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'What kind of demons were they?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It was a rather large serpent, apparently."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

A big serpent or ...... hmm?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The guys I saw said quite a few of them were moving toward King's Landing."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Let's see. .......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I looked at Mr. Druid and saw that his cheeks were a bit drawn.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I guess it was those kids after all.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Besides, it was the demon that was with Serpent that was the problem.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Other demons?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

There was no such thing, was there?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

...... maybe a slime?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

He said he was at the front of the pack, directing a large number of Serpents.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

By "lead," you mean the big serpents that Mr. Druid and I were riding with.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Instructions?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Oh, and by demons, do you mean ...... maybe Mr. Druid and I are treated like demons?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

And it seems that this demon is one that has never been confirmed before.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Unidentified demons?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mr. Druid continues his conversation with the adventurer with an indescribable expression on his face.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

He said, "Oh, it had the lower body of a snake and the upper body of a man."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Huh?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Oh, I just spoke up.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Ah, you'd be surprised, wouldn't you?　I had never seen such a demon before. So either a new species was born, or the king of the Serpents deep in the forest was on the move. And apparently it was their turn."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Where do I go into this?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Surely from a distance it looks like the lower half of a snake and the upper half of a person?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

And the watch?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Surely if it were me and Mr. Druid, it would look that way.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I guess that means there were witnesses, but if you are going to see it, you need to look harder.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

No. Is it a problem that people are moving on top of the Serpent?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

In this case, should we be glad that they didn't find out?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm scared," he said. Are you still around?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mr. Druid is asking for information with an expression that smacks of a bit of anxiety.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

As you would expect, however, if you look closely, you can see that her cheeks are twitching as if she is straining.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I have been checking on him since last night, and he seems to have determined that he is not in this area."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I see. Then it may be safe to depart on my journey. Thank you."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What, you're going in there with such a dangerous situation?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm in a hurry to get ahead. Thank you."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Bowing lightly, he heads for the gate.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The gatekeeper also stopped me due to the presence of unidentified demons.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I know, but I really need to leave today or I will miss my errand.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Is that so?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The worried look on the gatekeeper's face.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I can't help it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Please be careful. The direction we saw him was toward Hatta village, so he may not have come this way yet, but we can't be sure."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, I will be careful. Thank you."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I managed to persuade him to leave the village.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

After bowing repeatedly to the gatekeepers, we walked along the village road toward the village of Hatahi.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

As we walked along the village road, we encountered many patrols by vigilantes and adventurers.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Each time, after an hour of explaining and walking for about an hour, the signs of people finally became distant.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Huh, Mr. Druid.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

...... what is it?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

He said we're demons, and it's our turn.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Pfft!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mr. Druid starts to blow.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It seems that the patience has finally become too much.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Kukk, Mr. Druid, don't laugh.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I feel sorry, but I can't help but laugh.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I feel really bad that I was seen and that I gave them fear because of it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

but is it a new kind of demon or a king who was deep in the forest?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It certainly may have looked that way from a distance, but I know the truth and I can't help but laugh.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I almost blew up when I heard the story."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I know I had to hold back a few giggles.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mr. Druid seemed to have a hard time because he was face to face with the adventurers.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I quickly looked down and held back.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I was glad they didn't see me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

But it was a hell of a story.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm not sure I want to go back there. Is that thing okay?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Hmmm...in Hatata village, the sound echoing through the forest, and in Hatada village, the movement of a large number of serpents and a new type of demon?'

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I don't know what it is, but I have a feeling it's not okay.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Information would be exchanged.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I guess both villages will be on alert for the time being.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I feel like apologizing profusely.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I guess so."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

When he looks at the druid, they both laugh.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Well, maybe things will settle down after a while.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Surely it would be okay if there were no more sightings.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

And yet you were seen.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, well, they carried me pretty close.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I guess so." Oh, let's go deeper into the forest soon. I want to get Sola and the others out."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Any sign of people?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

We searched for signs as we walked from the village road toward the depths of the forest.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

There is no sign of people, and I sense the presence of demons quite far away, but there is no particular sign that they are coming this way.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It seems to be all right, so I let Sora and the others out."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I open the lid of the bag and four of them jump out.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Both Flem and Sol seem to be awake today.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Well, guys, we're starting our real journey today,' he says. Head for the village of Hatahi and say hello."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ppppp~"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Phew.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

TERRY~!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Nyaun."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Well, let's go."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Flem and Sol jump on top of Ciel at the druid's words.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Hey, you guys, walk on your own a little bit.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Pssst."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Teru."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ciel, I'm sorry.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Nyaun."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ha-ha-ha. Ciel, thank you. Let's go, guys."
