Over the Infinite – Chapter 12 (3)

Translator: mii

In daily life, with my only purpose of which was to defeat the goblins, I felt that my distance from the world was increasing.

I think that the world wasn’t keeping me away, but I was keeping away from the world.

One day, he was addressed to a goblin by a boy in a village where he was asked to go go as usual.

Both parents are from this village, and they have seen them since they were children. I am deeply moved by how big the two children are.

“Well, how can an uncle and adventurer do it?”

“Call me older brother”

It is a word that you can remember dejavu. This child is more polite than me.

“Well, it’s just a crusher with no position as an adventurer. Someone who can’t help anything can’t help it. ”

“In a fairy tale, you’ve been defeated and treated as a hero”

“I didn’t see a dragon. I will definitely run away if that happens. ”

But it’s different from Volcan at that time. I have never fought orcs.

“So what are your uncles fighting? Goblins.”

“Yes. It’s just a goblin. ”

Over the last ten years, they have been killed.

“Why, adventurers are boring.”

“Oh, never. It is better to stop it even on your stool. It is enough for me to get such a bottom occupation. ”

“But if you don’t have an uncle, goblins will attack the village. It may not be possible for me, but I think my uncle is amazing. ”

It was a life I thought was meaningless, but I felt saved by those words alone.

I think I was crying while saying “Thank you always” and seeing off the boy who left.

Even if you are called an adventurer, you do not adventure. It’s just a monster exterminator.

He kept saying that, but it still made me think he was an adventurer.

One day I began to think so, I was informed that Volcan was dead.

-4-

I was already over 50 years old and still an adventurer because I lost my options.

At that time, Volcan, who had been invited by a famous mercenary corps, could have abandoned me and joined.

Mercenaries aren’t a very good profession, but big mercenaries are no different from adventurers.

Volcan lost the timing, and he had no choice but to continue this work.

Even after I started working, I couldn’t stop quitting and continued to cheat, but it was said that my fortune was cursed or killed by a monster during an escort mission.

Escorting missions between cities are basically mercenary jobs. If you are an adventurer, you won’t be able to work unless you have enough trust.

Volcan may have gained that trust through years of experience. Perhaps there was an invitation from an escort doing the same job.

But he died easily regardless of that.

He said he had encountered a group of orcs.

It’s Volcan who said he could finally beat the orcs one-on-one. An older body cannot win by encountering herds.

However, the escort soldiers, including escorts other than Volcan, have successfully reached the next town.

According to a detailed account, Volcan died in the worship of the palace in the annihilation.

He seemed to float on the back of his eyelids just to hear the fact that he protected the escort target to the end without regard for himself.

It is a wonderful end that doesn’t look good on that face. It’s too good for me to reach.

I thought that my hero who came to help in that burning village that day was still a hero until the end.

The day after hearing the report, I was heading to a location where the merchant had encountered an orc.

I wasn’t asking for anything but just trying to go to that place.

A single person walks on the road between towns.

This is the road that needs escort. Maybe not only monsters but also bandits.

Although such a place is an active adventurer, walking alone is extremely dangerous.

But for fate or mischief, I met an orc where the merchant was attacked.

I don’t know if that was the purpose, but I first encountered a non-goblin monster and confronted it at this time.

The orcs are incomparably strong with goblins, and my attacks are hardly successful.

Your weapons are broken, and your armor and body are tattered by orc attacks.

He was completely wounded and continued to fight without dedication.

As a result, I was the last to stand.

Returning to town with Zutaboro without blessings or praise.

In a battle where there was no reward, the tiger cub ran out of equipment and returned as a ragged body, and nobody would ever sense anything from his eyes.

But only in me, it was a meaningful act. Yes, I wanted to.

“Yeah, you killed an orc.”

A face-friendly adventurer’s guild official has spoken to me, even if I heard the rumor.

“Yes, it’s not a request, I just hunted a stray.”

Surely that orc would have nothing to do with the orc who attacked the merchant.

If you try that oak, it’s no different from just being killed by eight.

I have no income in my pocket. It’s just an unofficial battle.

“Well, it doesn’t matter. You are now alone. Let’s have one cup. ”

“…Huh”

I don’t drink, but that doesn’t mean I can’t drink it. I’d appreciate it if you could give it to me.

Certainly, killing an orc alone is called the gateway to adventure.

In the past, when I boasted that Volcan had beaten an orc, I looked down on him foolishly, but after confrontation, I couldn’t say that even if my mouth was torn.

Goblins were incomparable, overwhelming giants, weight and toughness.

Certainly, I was not defeated, and even though I was told that I was half public this year, there was no help for it. It seemed so obediently.

The man started talking about his glass of liquor, which had been poured for a long time, playing with his hands without putting his mouth.

“Do you know the Labyrinth city?”

“Labyrinth city?”

I never heard of it.

Although it is a labyrinth, there is a dungeon, but it is a monster that springs out and does not bring any benefit. There is no reason to make the city nearby.

If so, it would be a front base for destruction. Or a fort to protect the city from monsters coming out of it.

“On the edge of the kingdom there is a vast wilderness, but it is a city beyond it.”

“Is the kingdom Orendia? It’s a far away story. “

There are several kingdoms on the continent, but there is nowhere to call them without a name.

“It seems that the labyrinth city is where adventurers dive into the dungeon and get food.”

“How?”

I have no idea how to do it.

Immediately after reincarnation, I wondered if there was a job like selling monster materials like a game, but they quickly became rotten and fog.

“I don’t know the details. But there is no doubt that there is such a city. ”

“It’s a very sparse town. So what is that city? “

“Like you, adventurers who can defeat orcs alone are called alone, but the Labyrinth City seems to be attracting such adventurers.”

“For what?”

“Now I don’t know. I don’t know anything. However, from the top of the guild, there is an instruction to tell the full adventurer. “Why don’t you go?”

There is nothing like a smell.

I don’t know the purpose of any city, and I don’t even have to go.

“There will be nobody to go.”

“No, actually, there’s another rumor in this city.”

“What is it?”

“It’s a city where every wish can come true.” So some of the up-and-coming promising adventurers are worried about “let’s go a little”. “

“… Huh.”

Well, if you’re in a world of dreams and hopes, and you’re in the profession of an adventurer with no future, you might be able to jump on such a rumor.

“Well, I can’t believe it, it doesn’t matter to me. It’s too far to try a bit. ”

Traveling alone can take months.

“I think it’s normal. It’s a story when you are interested. Oh, I’ll pay you here. “

The guildman left.

I’m left alone, moaning delicate sake. I couldn’t understand the taste of sake after a long time.

What exactly is it?

The meaning of this dream story is meaningful.

Well, it might be good for young people to follow their dreams.

Whatever the result, I think that pursuing itself is significant.

But it has nothing to do with me.

I live in this city.

It’s always an adventurer. Following the back that “My Hero” left behind.

I think it’s the only way I live.
