nchapter 32

nUnexpectedly a very large group returned back to the base.

nThe carriage obtained in Murus’ village and the two charriages owned by Dordrod, which were hidden in the forest were now carefully following a rough road in the forest.

nThe Rodis Family, Gams and Chem, Murus, Dordrod and four adventurers, that’s totals to 11.

nThe destroyed village had very little supplies left, but the shortage of dishes and seasoning was satisfied.

nI addition, I was glad to find vegetable seeds. I will leave the farming for after winter, in the spring.

nWith such a large number of people, it was assured that the return trip would be safe. So I left the room and went down to the first floor.

nBy the times the villagers return back to the base, I used the restroom and took out the fried meat from yesterday as well as some fruits from the Village of Fate from the refrigerator.

nOne of the plate was for the Golden Lizard.

n“Oh, are you hungry?”

n

n

nThe lizard sat beside the plate and started eating the fruits.

nHow he got out? it’s obvious. At the top of the aquarium, the glass cover is out of alignment this leaving a gap for it to come out.

nI was surprised at the lizards cleverness but more than that….how did he reach there…Even if the soil or the tree is used…it’s still not possible..

n“Well, how did you come out?”

nAfter asking the question and eating the fruits, the next thing which I did was too grab grilled meat.

nAfter I put it in my mouth, I asked another question.

n“What you eat meat? Weren’t you an omnivore?”

nOf course, it silently ate without answering my questions.

nI wonder if it will eat anything if I give it to him. I will ask Sayuki about this later on.

nThe lizard is growing smoothing after eating such delicacies. Within just a few days, it is already the size of a stuffed animal…..I guess it will grow upto few metres like a big snake. I can only pray that it will stop growing.

n“Oh, yes. I though of a name. Tell me which one is better. First, since you look like a dinosaur, so about about Lizardsaurus.” 1

nThe meat falls from the hands of the lizard and started staring at me.

n….it’s a surprising reaction. You didn’t even shake your head left to right. I think it was a coincidence but why does it seem like dissatisfaction. Then should I tell him the other name?

n“Then, how about this? Destiny. Destiny in English means Fate. How about that?”

nThe lizard pickups the meat and nods while eating it.

nI don’t what that means but let’s keep this name as it’s suitable for the pet of God of Fate

/God of Destiny.

nDestiny competes with me for the fruits and starts staring at the PC after he is full.

nAfter I caught his view and looked over, I saw the villagers just arriving at the cave base.

nOops, I forgot about it but there is no problem. All I can do is watch and leave the business to Rodis.

nThe work is in the hands of right person. I shouldn’t squeeze in because this is the situation where he can show of his dad powers.

n“I see, so now you live here. It’s easy to protect and there is no need to worry about rain and wind. A master in archery and a skilled adventurer. There is even a healer who can use recovery magic and perform prayers. A cure and cheerful daughter and a beautiful wife. You are a blessed man.”

nI feel great after he praises the villagers and the base.

nThe villagers hand over the materials of the monsters they have defeated. He seems to be buying them higher than the market price.

nRodis said, “Didn’t you give too much?”

n“I gave it a little thought. Since you all are blessed by God of Fate, we can expect great future development. We gave to get favored in long run.”

nI don’t hate Dordrod both as a merchant and as a person.

nThe ore was also offered to them but he said that he will buy them later on because he would have little profit right now because of low quantity.

n“We can buy it with the cash but barter will be fine in the future too.”

n“It helps. There is one request though. As you can see, we are short on staff. So if you find any migrants who are looking for a place to live, then we want them all.”

nRodis put out a recruitment.

nAs a last resort, I can just ask the oracle and pray to the Gods to help me.

n“If it’s about immigrants then there has been a lot of fuss in recent years. It seems that lots of villages have been destroyed in recent years. I have heard that the ferocity of the monsters has increased and the different races are now having the ability to band together and attack. I guess many people are looking for a stable place to live.”

nSo after all, the recent behavior of the monsters is abnormal in this world.

nIt was not usual for Rodis and Murus’ villages to be attacked.

n“But this forbidden forest is not safe place to live. If you listen to my suggestion then why don’t you all move?”

nThat’s a good suggestion but if they get out of the forest then according to the rules of the game, this game shouldn’t be over.

nI feel like it would be a rule violation to live in some other village in a village building game.

nStill if the villagers can be happy then why not consider the game cleared instead of actually clearing it.

nIt would be painful to not act as the God of Fate in the future but I will still prioritize the happiness of the villagers. I don’t want to see the village be annihilated in the game.

nI will accept whatever the villagers decision. I ate my food while waiting for their decision.

n“I want to stay here. It might be a foolish choice when I think of my family but I want to live in this land watched over by the God of Destiny. It feels like a mission from heaven.”

n“It’s a good wife’s duty to always follow her husband. I will stay with my family.”

n“Yes Yes. Dad, Mom, Gams brother and Murus’ are here. This place is good.”

nThe Rodis family wants to stay here.

nLet’s ignore that Carol didn’t mention Chem.

nA clergymen should laugh even when doing something dexterous.

n“….blessed by the God of Destiny. I will stay till I am buried here.”

n“I will protect them.”

nGams and Chem also choose to remain.

n“I don’t know much about the outside world. This forest is more comfortable and I don’t want to leave the place where my deceased friends lie.”

nMurus says so.

nAs a result, everyone is hoping to create a village here.

nIn order to meet the overwhelming expectations of God of Ctae, they want to establish a village first.

nAlthough it should be a building game, it seems like a care taking game to me now.

nThere is only one watchtower made out of logs and the rest is a fence.

nAs there are so many trees, therefore should also be many logs. I want to start building huts soon as the cave will be rundown as the number of villagers increase.

n“I understand. If you want to live it’s your choice. I know some people who might like a place like this. There are refugees so it should be fine.”

nDordrod is a good peddler, one which you don’t see often.

nAt least he better than me who hadn’t talked face to face with others since a decade.

n“Thank you.”

n“We will leave now, Rodis. We will be here again in few weeks so let us know if you have anythings you want. I will bring the things next time.”

nMost of the daily necessities are now satisfied but they still seem to be in need of clothes.

nThey did not have any other clothes so they all wore the same clothes all the time. Recently they have made a dress from animal skin which is worn only during the sleep.

nCarol waves at the Carriage on which Dordrod and his escorts are reading for a long time.

n“Wow. That’s perfect for the winter. Looks like we can expect more people.”

nMany projects that were bothering me are now cleared at once.

nThank you Sayuki for starting this bonus event.

nSuddenly, I noticed it was dark outside the window. In the winters, sun goes down early.

nI was concentrating too much on the game. I should check my smartphone.

nI turned on the smartphone which can be contacted only by my coworkers and family to see a message from Sayuki. I tapped to open it.

n“I think, I will be late today. If it’s not troublesome for you then, I will call you at midnight to pick me up at the bus stop.”

nI sent back an “OK”

nI looked at the map again to make sure that there is not danger around the village before activating the oracle.

nI wrote a prayer for the deceased villagers.

n“Yoshii…. dinner is ready.”

nI ran down as my mother called me from the first floor.

nToday my father and sister are late so I decided to eat alone, take a bath and then sleep.

n…..

n“Oh, I had an appointment to pick up Sayuki.”

nIt was dangerous. I became careless.

nShe hasn’t contact me yet but there are things which I want to buy at the convenience store so why not go for a night stroll?

nI left the the house in a thick jacket with a hood.

nI go out almost everyday nowdays still I am not used to this cold air.

nMy ears became numb in an instant. I put on my hood and headed to the convenience store quickly.

nThe light of the convenience store flashes brilliantly in the dark night.

nThe lights on the roads are a perfect landmark. There has been no call from Sayuki yet. It seems there is still some time until the bus arrives so I decided to kill my time inside the convenience store.

nMy feet stops as I saw a man exiting the convenience store. Hjs appearance was grim.

n“………”

nThe cold air from my back spreads throughout the body.

n——- I know that face.

nHe has grown up and is now about the same height as me but his features are still the same.

n“No….way…he is..”

nI will never forget that face. My sister’s classmate, the man who stabbed me.

nI know that he was sent to a children training school for injuring me and would have been discharged in few years. Why did he come back to this town?

nI mean it’s not a wonder for him to be back home.

nHowever, it would be a too much of a coincidence to reunite at a convenience store where my sister is supposed to drop off by the bus on her way back home.

nI entered the convenience store while hiding my face. I pretended to read a magazine by the window while watching the man.

nApparently he has in foot as moved away from the parking lot when exiting the store. He is drinking a canned coffee while operating his smartphone in this cold weather.

nHe glanced at the bus stop many times.

n

n

nThe reason he didn’t noticed me was probably because of my hood and he was concentrating on the smartphone.

nThe stalker is likely him again as be seems to be concerned about the bus stop.

nI had already considered this development. This is the worst development possible.

nWhat should be do? He had already consulted the police about the incident but they said that they will strengthen the patrol around the area.

nBut they seem to be busy as I have only seen then around the house twice..

n“As a brother, I should do something…..”

nI know the danger, but it’s better than my sister getting harmed. Later on I might not have the chance to save my sister.

nI tried to call and email my sister but there was no response. There is plenty of time left before the bus arrives…..

nI got out of the convenience store after purchasing the magazine which I had.

nI slowly approached the guy looking at his smartphone.
