(Compulsory Quest 2)

 

 

 

Day 90 after being summoned to another world.

*Swuz* 

An arrow is shot from behind Ryouma grazes his left ear and pierced the coaching box. 

"Ryouma-sama!" 
"Silent! Just focus on controlling the horse, Sara!" 

Ryouma shouted at Sara who saw blood dripping from his left ear and ask her to concentrate controlling the box-shaped carriage. 
For Ryouma who have never ridden a horse or drive a carriage, the way how Sara controlling this carriage is the only hope for them to escape this raid. 
For Ryouma, currently, there's no meaning worried about one's body. 

Arrows keep piercing the carriage like a bunch of hedgehogs. 
Originally he should be in the passenger seat with canopy, but right now, that is not the case. 
Because the arrows that were shot one after another in a mountain shape will pass the canopy and fall onto the coachman seat without the canopy. 
Ryouma who is unable to drive the carriage, for the sake of Sara to concentrate controlling the carriage striped the window plank and uses it to protect her. 

"Damn it! They still chasing after us!" 

"Ryouma-sama. As expected, against this..." 

Sora bitterly cut Sara's words. 

"Wallace that bastard... No, this is not the time for this. ...Sara! Laura and the others should be laying low somewhere. Listen alright! Don't miss the sign!" 

"Yes!" 

Ryouma while desperately striking back the arrow that comes raining on them thinking back to the time they were at the camping ground seven days ago. 

=================================================

Day 83th after being summoned to another world. 

Currently, this is inside the forest located northwest of port town Fulzad. 
Under the pretense of a compulsory quest, Ryouma had become a bodyguard for a group of merchants heading toward one of the three Eastern countries, the Rozeria Kingdom. 
The Rozeria Kingdom existed in between the Zalda Kingdom which is referred as the Iron Kingdom, and ocean trade nation where Fulzad port town located known as the Mist Kingdom. 
The majority of the country land is an open field, and the main industry of Rozeria Kingdom are agricultural product and dairy product.

Because Ryouma and the others were being told that they will get extra reward and some mercenaries will tag along, they decide to undertake it, though it was suspicious from the beginning. 
First is the carriage with a canopy that was assigned to Ryouma, despite the fact that he should be just a security guard for a merchant. 
This is something that usually mercenaries or adventurers can't get on. 
Next is despite being merchants a lot of the carriages are empty. 
However, if they said that the goods had been sold out, then it makes sense. 
But considering from where they had left which is the port town of Fulzad, they should have been able to restock as many commodities as they can for trade. 
And considering the efficiency of doing business, having an empty load is impossible. 
Even more so, the merchants are also suspicious. 
His body is rather slim. 
Furthermore, he also has such rough hand. 
Ryouma who noticed during handshakes at the time he greeted the commander cannot help but tilted his head. 

Currently, the mercenaries that undertake the quest of guarding the merchants have a discussion while surrounding the bonfire. 

"I was worried a bit too... At least, I've never seen such merchants like these. " 

The one who answered Ryouma's worry is Lione, the leader of 「Red Lion」 mercenary group. <TLN: Lione name is リオネ>
A woman with 180cm of height and tanned skins. 
While having firm muscle like a leopard, she has such large breast which indicates she's a woman. 
Her red hair that being trimmed around the shoulders looks matching with her golden eyes. 
Her age can be guessed around 30 years old. 
She's someone with the scent and charm of a mature woman. 

"Me as well, despite being a mercenary for merchants for a long time, this is the first time for me as well. " 

He is the adjutant of Lione, mercenary with the name of Boltz. <TLN: Boltz name is ボルツ>
A man around mid-fifties and he also have no left arm. 
Although he seems to have lost his arm during battle, but at the time Ryouma meet him for the first time, he does not appear to mind it much. 
Because of what Boltz said who has the experience of being a mercenary longer than Lione, as expected, there must be something about the merchants. 

"You... What do you think?" 

Lione asks Ryouma. 

"Honestly, I regret to undertake this quest you see..." 

Lione and Boltz nodded their head toward Ryouma declaration. 

"I give in due to the reward being good, but I wonder if this is a mistake..." 

"But Ane-san. This is a contract quest under the guild. Aren't you just being worried too much?" 

Listening to Lione's words, a mercenary which Ryouma does not know the name of the person spoke. 

"You stupid. You. I won't be able to become mercenary until this day if I don't have such crisis management. " 

"Wha! Even if it's Ane-san, you don't have to say it like that!" 

Lione just shakes her head toward the enraged man while smirks appear on Boltz's mouth. 

"You. Although you're not B rank. But still, that boy over there has beaten you in term of judgment. " 

The line of sight of the other mercenaries immediately turns toward Ryouma. 

"In the first place, the reason why I gathered everyone here is because of the suggestion of the boy over there. " 

"Hee! To be ordered around by such youngster like him, I guess Lione of 「Red Lion」 is someone small! Oi!" 

Ryouma is the youngest among them all here. 
Although he is 16 years old, and by virtue or not having the face of 20 years old man, mostly the people around him are over 30 to 40. 
Naturally, the mercenary who said such words got beaten up by Lione personnel. 

"Haa!? Which mouth are you spouting that nonsense huh?!" 

Such a calm tone of voice. However, Ryouma feels the voice of the person is like the calm before the storm. 
And the surrounding mercenaries also feels it. 
The other mercenaries which follow suit and make fun of Lione immediately shut their mouth. 

"Well, I can understand you guys feeling. It's not like everything is clear to me either, for now, let's end it here. " 

The air around them loosened after Boltz said such words. 
Lione also does not seems to disagree either. 

"Well now, I guess this is bad..." 

Boltz and Ryouma nodded their head together toward Lione's words. 

"It seems like only idiots have gathered..." 

"But still, it can't be helped for them to complain, what do you think, Boltz? After all, we can't do anything other than being prepared for the worst. " 

Lione then turned her eyes toward Ryouma. 

"Boy. What are you going to do?" 

"Well, for now, there's no other choice than continue doing what we are doing. Since we can't discard the quest just because feeling suspicious. " 

"I guess so... But still... Regarding there's something behind this quest, what do you think?" 

Ryouma responded to Lione's words while deeply sighed. 


"Well, for me, it feels like they are luring us into something with a bait... As for something is going on under the table, I can only see it as a fact. "
