We continued along the river for five days.

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

Mr. Fishe told us that if we walked one more day, we would reach the village road.

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

We waited."

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

Mr. Zinal's words stopped us all in our tracks.

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

There is a sign of someone.

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

We looked in the direction Mr. Zinal was pointing, and sure enough, there were signs of five people.

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

However, there was something wrong with the signs.

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

It was not as if they were erasing them like adventurers, but it was very thin.

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

The presence is very thin. That's why you didn't notice them until now."

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

Feiche-san didn't notice it either.

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

He was so thin. Are you sure you're not dying?"

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

At Mr. Fyshe's words, my father gripped his sword beside me, keeping a wary eye on his surroundings.

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

It looks like it. What do we do?

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

Zinal-san immediately picked up his sword as well, and became more vigilant.

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

There are no signs of demons around here, but it's hard to read the signs of a runaway demon.

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

Mr. Zinal is checking something when he receives a map from Mr. Fiesche.

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

They may be somewhere close to the village road."

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

The village road.

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

The map is a good place to start.

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

They're alive, right?

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

Yeah, he's alive because there's a sign of him. Now."

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

Mr. Feiche and Mr. Zinal look at each other.

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

They are not sure whether to help him or not.

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

They are wondering if they should help him.

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

My father told me that I could get into trouble for helping them.

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

But as long as they are alive, I want to help them.

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

I guess so. If we don't help them, we'll regret it."

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

I nodded to my father, who smiled at me.

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

If I don't help them, I might regret it.

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

But if you don't, you'll regret it even more.

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

If something goes wrong, you'll have to ask for help. If something happens and you have to run away, I'll be counting on you, Ciel."

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

Zinal-san patted Ciel on the head.

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

Ciel patted him on the head.

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

I'm counting on you.

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

Ciel's confident cry made Zinal's mouth drop open.

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

The tension in the air fades, and he walks towards the direction of the presence.

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

'Are you going to use Sola's potion?'

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

If you were attacked, you'd be hurt, right?

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

'No, let's not do that. It would be awkward if they saw us.'

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

Oh, that's right.

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

I look at Sola, who is jumping and moving beside me.

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

I would treat both injured people and demons right away, but I'm not going there today.

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

Maybe it's not an injury?

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

'That was quite a distance.

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

It has been about 30 minutes since we found the sign.

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

At a place a little off the village road, a collapsed carriage and two horses that are already dead.

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

And six men who looked like adventurers only by their physique.

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

The signs we feel are for five of them, so one of them must have already died.

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

I look at the person who died in the depression and tilt my head a little.

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

Something is bothering me.

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

I think a little, but I don't know what it is.

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

'There doesn't seem to be anything out of the ordinary around here. Shall we go?"

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

Mr. Zinal approaches the five people who have collapsed, keeping a wary eye on the area.

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

I and my father, thinking of what might happen, did not come close to them, but watched them.

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

Ciel, Sola and the others had to go into the bag to avoid being seen.

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

I asked them, "Are you all right?　Here is a potion, drink it.

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

Zinal and Fyshe gave the five of us potions to drink one after another.

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

They were regular potions, so the effect would be immediate.

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

'It's been a long time since I've seen a potion that hasn't changed color. Why do I feel uncomfortable with that one?　It's a regular potion."

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

I nodded to my father, who said with a wry smile.

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

I, too, felt uncomfortable when I saw the regular potion.

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

It must be because I see a degraded version of the potion with a different color every day.

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

I touch the color-changing potion every day, and if my physical condition is even a little strange, I use the light potion of Sola or Flem. You never touch the regular potions, do you?

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

I don't touch the regular potions, do I? You have them in your bag, though.

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

If you are injured and there is no one around, you use Sola's potion, but if there are other people around, you cannot use it.

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

Dad has a regular potion for such occasions.

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

He has never had to use it yet, though.

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

Oh, once I took out a regular potion from my bag.

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

It was time to change to a new one, so he didn't use it, but it became everyone's dinner.

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

It looks like you're doing okay.

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

Out of the corner of my eye, I saw five people getting up and talking.

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

They were moving awkwardly, as if they still had pain in their bodies.

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

As I stared at the movements of the five people, Mr. Jinal signaled to me, "It's all right.

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

For the time being, it seems that they will not attack us immediately.

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

Ivy, be careful. They're dressed like merchants, but probably adventurers ......."

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

I look up at my father, who cuts me off mid-sentence.

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

He stopped at an unnatural place.

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

"Dad?"

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

What's wrong?

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

"My bad. I felt that their movements lacked the roughness characteristic of adventurers.

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

Roughness?

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

When I looked at the five of them again, they certainly seemed to have a certain elegance or politeness about them.

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

They were a little different from the adventurers we see in the villages and towns.

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

Druid, Ivy."

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

I come out from my hiding place at Mr. Zinal's words.

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

They're with us. Come here."

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

As we approach, we check on the five of them.

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

For merchants, they were too well-trained and weren't surprised to see us.

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

Both my father and I were so out of sight that a merchant wouldn't have noticed us.

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

Besides, the presence I sense from them is also quite sharpened, unlike that of the merchants.

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

Are you sure you're not trying to deceive us?"

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

I wonder?"

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

Don't tell me you've forgotten about them like the adventurers you met at the illegal dumping ground?

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

...... No, no way?

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

'They say they are knights.

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

Good.

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

I hadn't forgotten.

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

I was so relieved that Mr. Zinal was tilting his head at me.

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

I chuckled and shook my head.

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

"Knights?"

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

Yes, he was a knight, Zinal-san said.

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

Why would a knight be dressed as a merchant?

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

I look at the whole body of the five of them.

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

Other than their physique and airs, they don't even look like merchants. ......?

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

No, it's still impossible, isn't it?

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

Three of them have too sharp eyes when they look at people.

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

I'm amazed that you took on the challenge with your physique. Besides, if you're going to do it, at least be careful how you look at people.

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

"Pfft, hahaha!"

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

Mr. Zinal gushed at his father's words.

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

The one who looked the oldest of the five nodded as he chuckled at the fathers.

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

I know," he said. That it was too much to ask."

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

The other four also looked somewhat uncomfortable at his words.

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

They may have thought it was too much for them to be merchants after all.

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

If they were going to disguise themselves, they might as well have been adventurers."

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

One of the knights shakes his head at his father, who smiles ridiculously.

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

'We needed to look like we didn't have complete power.

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

Isn't that quite impossible, given your physique?

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

The merchants hire people to carry their goods, so I figured if I could pass off as one, I'd be fine."

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

I look at the whole body of the knight who is talking.

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

He is tall and has muscles all over his body.

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

Indeed, if you call him a baggage handler, he may not look like one.

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

They are not as big as the knight in front of me, but they are also very fit.

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

But then, why are they dressed like merchants?

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

The baggage carriers are much more lightly dressed.

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

Then their outfits must be no good.

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

I knew it.　I had some doubts, but I thought we were supposed to be dressed like the baggage handlers, so I put this on to see if we were mistaken. Apparently, there was a misunderstanding."

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

The knight returns a pitiful look to his father's stunned expression.

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

As he laughs at them, the image of the deceased enters his field of vision.

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

Come to think of it, I had forgotten because it was so harmonious, but there was someone who had died.

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

Um, he is."

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

When I point to the person who is lying face down and dead, one of the knights takes the dead person's arm and lifts him up.

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

Eh?

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

I am a little surprised at how poorly he handled him.

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

A doll?

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

A doll?

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

I look at my father and see the person being lifted up.

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

'Really, it's a doll.

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

So that's why it bothered me a little when I saw it earlier.

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

But still, why a doll?
