We are heading back to the town capital via the carriage that’s coming at noon today. Thus, I planned to round up the varmint control early in the morning.
“Eii!”
“That’s right. Let’s try not to take them down in one hit, but make sure we take them down properly.”
Since we have the chance, I decided to switch the positions of the front and rear guards today while doing the varmint extermination.
Sue is fighting in the vanguard while coaching Horn.
Horn can use physical enhancement, but she is inherently weak, so she hits the boar with her mace and then kills it with holy magic.
By the way, Sue catches the boar’s charge with a magic barrier and kills it with a dagger, effectively defeating the wild boar.
Thud. Thud.
“I’m not hitting it!”
“See, if you just cast spells randomly, you won’t hit anything.”
Fran, on the other hand, is a little annoyed that all the water magic she released missed her target.
I’m watching Fran today, but both Fran and Horn need a little more magical training.
As for Maya-san and Sera-san, they defeat the boars with a team work in which Sera-san catches it with a magic barrier and Maya-san stabs it. Both of them are much more efficient than when they first came to the village.
Shiro and Ao are still fighting in the vanguard, but they don’t move so flashily today. It’s more like they are watching out for Fran and Horn.
With this, the last day’s varmint extermination is over.
“We killed a lot!”
“Good work, Horn.”
Today, Horn, who defeated many wild boars in the vanguard, has a very nice smile.
“Buu.”
“Fran, when we get back, you’re going to have magic training.”
Fran, on the other hand, was quite frustrated because she couldn’t defeat the boar at all. I hope she will use that frustration as a springboard to work harder in her magic training.
Maya-san and Sera-san also ended up killing a lot of wild boars. The collaboration between the two also seems to have improved considerably.
“It was really helpful that you came. I also wrote a letter, so please give it to him.”
“I will take good care of it. I will definitely give it to the Holy Knights.”
I have the village chief sign the completed request, and then I will take the letter to the vice-commander of the holy knights after we get back.
This completes the varmint control this time.
The carriage to the capital has arrived, so we will leave after the horses have rested.
““““Bye bye””””
“Take care.”
Finally, the carriage departs, so we greeted the village chief and get into the carriage.
It was a good experience and we had a lot of fun.
Kara Kara Kara.
““““Ungh-, ungh-””””
“Oh my, they are all quite tired huh.”
“Yeah. Well, we were hunting down varmint till this morning.”
“Oh really? Thank you for your hard work.”
Perhaps it was because the swaying of the carriage was comfortable, but before I knew it, everyone except me fell asleep.
I wonder what kind of dreams are they dreaming about right now.
I looked into the faces of Fran and Horn in my arms and then looked at the view from the carriage.
