nchapter 12.1

nIt was already noon when I woke up the next day.

nIt was a normal wakeup time for me a while ago but now its unusual.

nMy body seemed exhausted from all the night-time work and therefore I didn’t know when I fell asleep.

n“No, No … Ahhhh”

nI tried stretched my arms and thigh but then their inside starting violently aching.

nThis is definitely muscle pain.

nMy whole body is going numb specially my thighs. Muscle training stimulates the untrained muscles by walking and standing just like a new born baby.

nSomehow despite my current state, I managed to sit down on the chair in front of the PC to checkout the villagers.

nIt looked like their normal daily routine.

n

n

n“Now, lets see if something happened before I woke up.”

nI checked the conversations log up to now, there wasn’t any change in particular but wait….what is this?

nThere was a character with a meaningful whisper.

nSomeone was talking alone in the early morning when no one was awake.

nI carefully checked out the conversations of the person in question.

n“There are no suspicious movements so far. They are just refugees. Yes, the risk is very low. I’ll come back after scouting some more. ”

nTalking as if communicating with someone.

nIf I can see the video then it would be more clear but unfortunately I can only read the conversations.

n“Even if we don’t do anything, they will be destroyed by the Temptation of the Evil God. The humans and filthy dwarves who used to live in this place have already been annihilated. ”

nThis was an important remark now.

nSo Humans and Dwarves used to live in this current residence.

nDwarf is a very familiar race from the fantasy genre. They are shorter than humans. They have long beards and are muscular. The standard setting are that they are dexterous and good at smithing.

nSo there are Dwarves in this game? They seem to be another major race. Will we meet them someday?

n“The only thing that is troubling me is that they are blessed by God of Destiny. If we do something like this then we might invite the wrath of God. So, as I said earlier, we should be on the lookout without interfering. ……Yes. Understood. We will judge those who have entered our sanctuary.”

nThese are the only contents of the conversation but the information so far is sufficient enough to know who said it even though I dont understand the exact details.

nIt’s Murus.

nThere is only one person who is watching and doesn’t have the villagers identity.

nI thought he was a reliable pharmacist but you came for this? I wasnt convinced that so little fate points were needed to summon such a rare talent but now I understand.

nSo the story is something like…He is living in this forest with his family but he is wary of the sudden appearance of the villagers.

nThe only thing you can rest assured is that he doesnt seem to have some ill intentions. There is no need to worry that Murus will do something strange before the end of the month.

n“The setting that they are watched by the God of Fate helped. Is my presence contributing a little to the villagers?”

nI’m a little happy about that.

nIf he seems to be afraid of the existence of the God of Fate, we can leave Murus alone for now.

nHowever, because I considered Murus as one of our precious forces, I am now worried about the Temptation of the Evil God at the end of the month. I can’t rely on him now.

nI am worried but lets eat first. My stomach is growling even though I had eaten late at night.

nWhen I got down, my mother was washing dishes in the kitchen.

n“Oh, you woke up. Wait a minute. Let me warm up your lunch.”

n“Don’t worry, I’ll do it myself”

nWhile I was eating the dinner from the last evening, my mother finished washing the dishes and came to sit in front of me.

n“How was your job?”

n“Everyone was good and the work was very easy.”

n

n

n“Oh, that’s right. You seemed to have worked hard.”

nMy mother smiles happily.

nWhen you are praised for something which should be very normal then you feel strange.

n“How was the evening meal yesterday?”

n“It was delicious. Ah… thank you.. for yesterday.”

n Ok Asada here. Let me be honest. I knew all along that the mother was the one who made the dinner and readied the bath but I noticed the strangeness of the event and got greedy. Greedy for what? Ofcourse for comments….so I asked you to judge whether it was her sister or mother. Well It was a good strategy to attract you all 😀

nI’m embarrassed but I have to say thanks properly.

nBecause of the villagers my spirits have been raised and now I am able to maintain a good relationship with my family. I am really thankful to them.

nI seem to be their Apprentice.

n“So it was delicious. Fufu. You’re very honest today.”
