*****In a forest in the southwest*****
When Deguna woke up, she found that she was surrounded by Zhang Youji, Valkyrie, and Belika. The atmosphere was like three policemen interrogating a prisoner. They smiled and asked Deguna to explain what was wrong. When it came to the matter of the sleeping eldest lady, Deguna started talking in a panic. The reason was that instead of smiling, there was some kind of killing intent in the eyes of the three people, especially Valkyrie's eyes. The murderous intent is very obvious.
[I picked up that young lady during my hunting trip, because there was no prey nearby. When I was about to come back, I suddenly found a person lying on the road, so I brought her back directly, but for some reason, Valkyrie But I beat him up... 】
【···Deguna, you didn’t lie, did you? You really didn't abduct that young lady, right? 】
【? Why should I lie? As for abduction and the like, I have never done anything like that so far. 】
【···Hey, Valkyrie, this time it seems... 】
【···Well,...Deguna, I'm sorry, the reason why I knocked you unconscious is... 】
After Deguna explained the general story, the three of them bowed their heads to Deguna and apologized. Then when Deguna heard Valkyrie explain the reason why she was knocked unconscious, Deguna exploded in a grand manner. .
[Really, I actually suspected someone of doing something like abduction, and even called me without asking. 】
[Valkyrie and I have already apologized to you. Anyway, don’t be angry. 】
[Don’t be angry, besides, my total HP was cut off by 4 levels just now! Valkyrie's attacks are no joke! 】
【Well! ···,Feel sorry. 】
In the next 30 minutes, Deguna maintained this posture, preaching to Zhang Youji and Valkyrie. As for Belika, she was on the side, silently taking care of the eldest lady who was still sleeping. After all, Deguna was knocked unconscious. Guna's matter did not have much to do with Belika, but because she felt that it was not an option to continue like this, she mustered up the courage to interrupt Deguna's lecture.
[Lord Deguna, can you excuse me? 】
【? What's the matter? 】
[Well, what should we do about the eldest lady of the Kimberly family? 】
【···Oh, that’s right. Anyway, let’s wait for her to wake up first. Speaking of which, you actually know her. 】
[Well, after all, the fact that my brother and I became slaves has something to do with the Kimberly family. 】
After hearing what Belika said, Zhang Youji and Deguna immediately broadcast their faces, preparing to ignore the eldest lady and go straight to the road, while Valkyrie was waiting to see what happened. As for Zhang Youji and Deguna, they started to prepare to leave. Belika hurriedly changed her story and told what happened when she and her brother became slaves.
Originally, her brother was the exclusive chef of a certain nobleman, but seven days ago, when the eldest lady of the Kimberly family and the brave men went to that nobleman's house for dinner, one of the brave men with a gun suddenly said that the food was poisonous. After the poison test by the Guardian Knight, it was confirmed that the food was indeed poisoned. Then they called the chef and the noble, and charged them with the crime of trying to poison the hero and the noble.
As a result, the nobleman, the cook, and their families were blindly demoted to slavery without even finding any evidence. The cook was her brother Burlet. After that, the orc brothers and sisters who became slaves suffered all the humiliation until a certain day. One day at a slave auction in a small town, a slave kidnapping incident occurred. The two brothers and sisters were involved in the magic released by one of the kidnappers. The person who saved the two people at that time was Zhang Youji who happened to be passing by.
[That’s what happened. If we hadn’t met Master and Leterika that day, my brother and I would have... 】
[Hey, what are you doing? Those brave men... Let’s make a final confirmation. Do you really want to save this young lady? 】
[...If you can, Master, please save her. After all, I heard from my brother that the person who ordered the order was a guardian knight named Celtic. Although this eldest lady asked the knight to find out clearly and not to accuse her unjustly. A good person, but he didn't listen at all, and this is what happened. 】
[...It's been Celtic for a long time, and I don't have a good impression of him. Alas, anyway, Valkyrie, give her a recovery spell. 】
[Summoner, it seems there is no need to use magic, she is about to wake up]
【Ah ah ah ah! Don't eat me! ···Why? Is it a dream? here it is? ,? ! who are you? ! 】
After Zhang Youji learned about the story of how the orc brothers and sisters became slaves, he checked with Boleka again and asked her if she wanted to save the eldest lady who made their brothers and sisters become slaves. After a moment of hesitation, Boleka answered Zhang Youji firmly. The problem is, just when Zhang Youji asked Valkyrie to use recovery magic on the still sleeping eldest lady, the eldest lady yelled something while Valkyrie was talking, and it seemed like she had a nightmare. .
[Hey, are you awake? And please calm down, this is... Well, I didn’t ask what the name of the town was. In short, taking the direction of the royal capital of Rosemona, this is in the forest in the southwest. Besides, we are just ordinary travelers. 】
【···The forest in the southwest..., yes, I remember it! I came here to find the House of Precognition! 】
【House of Precognition? What is that? Forget it, since you're awake, we'll leave first. I wish you good luck. 】
【Hello! common people! In the name of Kimberly, I command you to take me to the House of Precognition and honor me! You are honored to be the eldest lady of the Kimberly family and to lead the way for me and Kimberly Liya. 】
[Hey~, Deguna, I found your kind. 】
[Summoner Lord, please don’t go too far even if it’s a joke. I admit that his character is a bit regretful, but the meaning of regret and the meaning of pity are completely different things. 】
When the eldest lady named Kimberly Liya remembered her purpose, she completely ignored Zhang Youji and the others, and just said some willful words to herself. But after Zhang Youji heard those words, he ignored her. , pulled Valkyrie and Belika to Deguna, and while discussing with her the matter of Miss Liya, he began to walk in the southwest direction, and continued his journey to find the Elf Kingdom. As for Kimberly Liya, who was thrown away, she was stunned on the spot.
【Why? ! Varied? ! Wait for me! Hey! Even the brave men are polite when speaking to me, but how dare you treat me like this? ! 】
[I’m not a brave person, and the direction of my return is probably over there, so I wish you a safe journey. 】
【This rude person! I am]
[Ah, I know you are the eldest lady of a noble family, so you should go back as soon as possible. Also, if you use magic to hit us, we]
[Common people, please pay the price for your rudeness! Explosive fire bomb! 】
[Master, danger! 】
Liya reacted and became angry. She immediately yelled something at Zhang Youji, but Zhang Youji ignored it because Liya had never been treated like this since she was born, so her anger level had already exceeded her limit. He used fire magic on Zhang Youji without hesitation. Upon seeing this, Belika immediately protected Zhang Youji behind him and used the ice arrows automatically generated by the magic bow to shoot at the fireball released by Liya's magic.
The result was that after the ice arrow pierced Liya's fireball, it flew past her, wiping off a few curls on her head on the way, and then flew to the tree behind her, and then penetrated the tree behind her several times. After a few seconds, the ice arrow stopped and struck a big rock.
When Liya looked back at the arrow stuck on the rock, she was stunned. After she reacted, she collapsed on the ground and began to watch Belika tremble, and then cried loudly. As for Belika, she looked at her hands. The [Ice Demon Bow Spirit] in the maze was in a daze. Although she had already tried firing once in a certain area in the maze, it was only shooting at the wall of the maze, not at monsters, so she never They never thought that just an ordinary arrow would have such power. If the angle was just a little bit wrong, Liya's life would have been lost.
[Wow, although she was a little angry because of what she just said, but Belika, there is no need to scare her to this extent, right? 】
[Belika, just like Deguna said, you struck a little too hard. 】
【···Why? Why--? ! Lady Deguna, Lady Valkyrie, I just want to neutralize her attack, but, that】
[Anyway, just be careful next time. What you have in your hands is the top level 250 bow spirit. But, after all, she was the one who made the move first... Oh, forget it, Berleka, go and comfort her. ···Everything is not going well. Is this also the effect of bad luck? 】
For the next 30 minutes, Belika kept comforting Liya. When Liya stopped crying, she seemed like a different person, as honest as a cat. The expression on her face now seemed like something was wrong. But I didn't dare to say it out loud, so I kept hesitating.
After Zhang Youji saw Liya like this, he sighed again, thinking that although it was wrong for her to attack first, it was true that he had overreacted, so he planned to listen to what Miss Liya had. Things cannot be said.
[Stop hemming and hawing. If you want to speak, speak up quickly, otherwise we will leave. 】
【···Take me to the House of Precognition. 】
[Why do you have to speak like a victim? It’s obvious that I am the victim, even though I’m overreacting... Sigh, even if you say let me lead the way, I don’t know where you are talking about. ah. 】
【··· According to the rumors among the common people, the House of Foreknowledge seems to be in this forest. 】
[After waiting for a long time, it turned out to be a folk rumor? ! Why would you want to go to a place that sounds suspicious? Also, put away your victim face. You were the one who hit me first, but you just overreacted and cried. You are a primary school student. 】
After Liya answered Zhang Youji's question with the victim's face, Zhang Youji walked up to Liya, pulled her up from the ground and said some words of complaint. She was not convinced, but because it was indeed what she did wrong, she didn’t say much. When Liya stood up, she suddenly had a question about what a primary school student was, but she did not say the question out loud because she had other questions than that. There are more important things to say.
[·······, because I have the skill of precognition and precognition in dreams, but my precognition in dreams can only predict some fragments, and just 3 days ago, I predicted in my dream that in the near future , there will be an unprecedented disaster in the royal capital, so I want to go to the House of Foreknowledge and ask the owner there to tell me how to avoid or fight against that disaster. 】
[Then just tell the heroes what you knew in your dream. Isn’t that the purpose of summoning the heroes? 】
【I have said it many times! But no one believed me. Everyone said that since the braves were here, everything would be fine. But the fragment I saw in my dream showed the burning capital and the defeat of the braves. When I said these things At that time, no one believed me at all! 】
[I see, that’s why you went out alone to find a way to fight the disaster. On the way, you heard rumors about that house, so you immediately walked into the forest, and you were killed. But, was it a disaster... ··. 】
After Zhang Youji listened to Liya's explanation, he covered his head with his hands and couldn't help but begin to sympathize with Liya. His plan for the disaster was that he would just rescue those who were kind to him. As for those who Just leave irrelevant people to the braves, but because Zhang Youji’s childhood sweetheart Ye Lianmeng is also one of the braves, when she was in danger, Zhang Youji also considered using her own power to help the braves at a critical moment, but , This is an action that will only be carried out under the premise that the heroes are defeated.
While Zhang Youji was silently thinking about these things, Liya thought that Zhang Youji was now considering refusing to be her bodyguard, so she lowered her head to Zhang Youji and expressed her request in a determined voice.
【I beg you! I have already told you things that I should not say, so please escort me to the House of Prediction. I will definitely give you a considerable reward, so! 】
【Your character image seems to have changed, hey! Forget it, I happen to be on my way anyway, so I can take you for a ride... Speaking of which, if the story about the House of Prediction is true, maybe I can find out the location of the Elf Kingdom. 】
After Zhang Youji saw Liya's performance, he shouted loudly to Liya, and then reluctantly agreed to Liya's request. At the same time, he suddenly thought of something. As for Valkyrie, Deguna, and Belika 3 People, during this period, were paying attention to something and were watching the surroundings.
[Valkyrie, Belika, do you feel it? There was a sudden smell of something coming from the southwest just now. Do you want to go take a look? 】
[Deguna, Belika, this is the aura emitted by the devil. Because the distance is too far, we can only infer the approximate location, and the aura has disappeared now, so even if we go there, it will not help. Anyway, let’s strengthen our vigilance first. Bar. 】
[The creepy feeling just now turned out to be the aura of the devil. I understand, Lord Valkyrie and Lord Deguna, I will always pay attention to my surroundings. 】
[Hey, because something unexpected happened again, I have to take this curly hair to find the House of Prediction,? What happened? You have a serious expression on your face, and the hair on your tail and ears stands up, too. 】
[Summoner, we just felt that there are some monsters nearby. Because they are at a certain distance from us, there is no danger. 】
【Yeah? So, let's go. 】
While the three of them were talking, Zhang Youji and Liya came over and interrupted the conversation. Because Valkyrie didn't want Zhang Youji to worry about the devil, she winked at Deguna and Belika and told them to discover the devil. The matter of breath was passed over perfunctorily.
After that, Liya, who heard herself being called curly hair, quarreled with Zhang Youji again, but Zhang Youji almost ignored Liya's words, but because of the quarrel between Liya and Zhang Youji, the atmosphere eased. After coming down, the group of people began to head towards the depths of the forest in order to find the House of Prediction mentioned by Liya.
