My Disciples Know That I Am Strong

Episode 2. Hero Awakening (3)

“…… What are these?”

I looked at what was in the three bags.

Tina’s bags contained mostly dried fish, bread, and fruit.

For Tina, who must have suffered from hunger, food was more important than anything else. I’ll know until there. I understand.

But did you mean that you bought enough for a week’s supply, or enough for a month’s supply?

Excessive food becomes a storage problem and becomes a burden.

She was going to stop by Ausu to buy more food anyway, but if she bought it like this, it would inevitably be a waste.

Anyway, it seemed to me that I should teach them the concept of economics.

“Ah…… Hey, can I get a refund?”

“No, that’s it. But would I have saved a lot of money just by buying this? Where did you write it?”

“As expected, I don’t think I can use up a single gold coin, so I saved it.”

He takes out a money bag and holds it out to me. I took the money bag and looked inside. There were still many silver coins left.

I tied her mouth tight and gave it back to Tina.

“Yes. Then use it whenever you need it.”

“Ah… Are you not taking it back?”

“I have no intention of taking away what I gave you.”

I took her eyes off Tina’s bag and looked at Iris.

The number of Iris’ bags was four.

Should I say perfect balance?

It really feels like I bought only ‘necessary things’.

A change of clothes, a week’s supply of food, a sleeping bag and lamp for outdoor sleeping, and small weapons such as a dagger.

“Did all of you walk around separately?”

Since Tina bought her own food, I thought the other kids were buying something other than food, but it didn’t seem to be the case.

“I thought it would be more time-efficient to buy what we want each other than to go together.”

“I see.”

It’s not wrong.

I can’t hide the feeling of waste.

She turned her head away as she resealed Iris’s bags.

The last one belonged to Mary.

Open the bag. The first thing I saw was a bunch of rolled up parchments.

“What is this?”

“A magic scroll.”

“A magic scroll?”

Why are you buying this now?

I glanced at the bag next to me. The equipment that was already sticking out came into my eyes.

It was a sword and a spear. It seemed that he had bought all sorts of equipment.

“As much as you said to catch monsters. I thought I had to be thoroughly prepared.”

“Hmm.”

Maria’s intentions are so blatant that she tries to laugh bitterly.

At first glance, it seemed that she would tell her to prove her skills by killing monsters and accept her as her disciple.

It wasn’t bad though.

If you only show your will to fight monsters, you will definitely be able to awaken as a hero.

Of course, I wouldn’t accept him as a disciple.

“Don’t be afraid to see monsters.”

“No, that’s not going to happen!”

“I don’t know how long that assurance will last.”

The bag check was over.

There are some clothes I bought, and I also bought a sleeping bag to use at night, so camping should be no problem.

“I will leave early tomorrow morning. Prepare yourself. If you want to eat dinner, go downstairs and eat with the money I gave you. I’ll be fine.”

“Okay.”

The children rush out. It seemed to me to be honest. I dived into the bed while counting the bags to be loaded onto the wagon.

How long has it been since you had a good night’s sleep, really?

Tears covered my eyes when I thought that I would not be able to sleep properly from tomorrow.

“What are these children?”

Looking at the three children who will become warriors, they ask me. Pretending not to know the subject I watched for two days.

“Don’t pretend you don’t know when you know.”

“Ha ha ha! It’s embarrassing for you to say that.”

Dex neatly strokes the back of his hair.

“Before leaving, there are a few things to keep in mind.”

“What is it?”

“First, we will not allow tracking of Secret Garden. If other guys besides you…… No, it already exists.”

Belonging to the Secret Garden, they had absolute trust in the leader. They were like a pseudo-religion that said they could lay down their lives for the leader.

It was largely because the leader understood the hardships of the members better than anyone else and relieved them. Even so, it seems crazy to sacrifice one’s life.

“…… You are great too. I can’t relax.”

When Dex tells them to come out, members hiding in the shadows begin to come out. After all, my photography is first-class.

“Wow, there are a lot of people!”

“This is great magic. I didn’t even know they were around.”

“Did Prause recognize this at once?”

The warriors marvel at them as they come out of the shadows.

“It’s obvious.”

I looked around at them and said.

It was a similar outfit to Dex. Only the robe was not worn, but the whole body was wearing black clothes.

“Sir Prause, sorry for the rudeness. Please save my life.”

‘If anyone sees it, they’ll know it’s killing them. Still, the feeling that someone is secretly watching is a bit unpleasant.’

“Would you spare your life if someone were spying on your husband or wife?”

It’s started again. A f*cking snout.

The members who bowed their heads toward me wriggled. As if he had nothing to say about my point, he remained as still as a stone statue.

“Hey, Prause.”

Dex steps out to make sure he doesn’t do anything wrong to his members.

‘I don’t want to say anything either? I mean, do it in moderation. Moderately.’

“I know that you live on information. But don’t try to know too much about me. Die.”

“I will keep this in mind.”

“Dex.”

“Yes.”

“You are the only one who allowed me to travel. If someone other than you comes after you, you’ll have to think carefully about what will happen.”

“Okay. Disband.”

“Ha, but Captain!”

The members hurriedly protested.

“Don’t worry. This person is not a reckless person like Incuro.”

When are you sure you saw it? I think it’s been a few days since I found out that trust is built up.

“Besides, this is an opportunity to get this much information. You must think that I am in the right class.”

Honestly, I think it would be nice if no one followed me. There was nothing good about other people knowing the information I knew.

But unless I could prove my strength to Thelma, I had no choice but to take her.

“I wish you the best of luck, Captain.”

“Please return safely.”

“Don’t worry. I’m with Prause-nim, can’t I protect myself?”

You bastard, are you trying to rely on me?

You are the escort. That i am weak

“That’s right. If it’s this person who made even S-class adventurers stump…….”

It was absurd to see the members who were meekly accepting.

No, I only did defense, right? What is embarrassing.

The real warriors and the boys, what the hell are you misunderstanding like this?

It’s not easy to clear up misunderstandings because I can’t speak as I want because of the filtering, but it just piles up and I’m going crazy.

“Come on. Captain.”

With those words, the members disappear. Seeing this, Dex let out a sigh of relief.

“All members have resigned.”

“I guess so.”

As soon as the crowd disappeared, Tina rushed towards me.

“Prause, Prause.”

“What is it?”

“Who are the people from before? No way! Is Prause the head of an enormous group?”

It’s the head.

It was difficult for me to answer somewhere when I asked with innocent eyes shining. Dex was also focusing on me from the side.

They seemed to think it was an opportunity to hear information. His eyes were shining and his expected form was very absurd.

“Do you think I belong to an organization or something?”

Do you think there will be an organization for ordinary villagers to enter?

It would be fortunate for commoners to die after getting along well. If you don’t care, the position that is easy to fall into slavery is a commoner, but I will use it as a perk or talent.

You should have been born as an aristocrat, not a real commoner.

As she grumbled internally, Tina lowered her head.

“That, that’s not, that’s not…” …. Sin, I’m sorry.”

I’m sorry that I seemed to be questioning the child for no reason. I tapped Tina on the shoulder and said.

‘I’m just an ordinary villager with neither the ability nor the talent to join an organization.’

“I am not fit to be part of an organization or something.”

Um. Some of the nuances are strange, but I feel that the filtering came out well.

“I’m not fit to be part of an organization… …. It’s a person with power that the organization can’t handle, so it’s understandable……. If you shoot and press an S-class adventurer, no organization will be able to handle him.”

I suddenly see Dex muttering to himself. I don’t know what kind of strange illusion he’s making with his serious face, but I want him to stop.

“Dex.”

“Yes! Prause.”

‘I can’t tell you to close your eyes the whole escort.’

“…… I hate getting attention from boyfriends.”

“I’m sorry. Then I will bring a vice-captain who is in the same class as me. Is the vice-captain a woman?”

I didn’t mean that.

“Your chest is also big. It’s the size that leaks out a little when you squeeze it. Prause-nim’s hands are smaller than mine, so you’ll feel them bigger.”

Seeing him appeal like this, it seemed as if he had overheard that a woman with big breasts was his preference. But why do you know the size of my hands? You crazy

“…… Done. Anyway, I’ll ask for an escort for a week. Instead of providing a monopoly of information, deal with the tailing of other groups as well.”

“No way…… Did you notice the tailing of the Black Gwangjo?”

A black glow?

Are you referring to the assassination squad under the direct control of the first prince in the right to inherit the throne?

Did you smell it already? Too fast?

The Black Gwangjo unit that usually attaches to S-class adventurers――

――Ah, Incuro was also an S-class adventurer.

I washed my face dry. After all, I should have bought only Maria quietly and returned.

Having entered the ears of the prince increases the possibility that he will have to collide with the imperial family sooner or later.

Since I did it with Incuro while I was in trouble with the demons, it was obvious that they would use me.

“Prause-nim, I don’t know about the other houses, but even I have a hard time dealing with the black light bird. There is a group of monsters with physical abilities. If they were adventurers, they would all be A-class.”

You mean that group is looking at me right now? It will be frustrating.

“So you said you couldn’t do it?”

“…… It’s not that I can’t do it, it’s that it’s hard for me alone. Rather than that, why don’t you have Prause-nim kick you out yourself?”

Is this guy crazy?

Unlike other groups, the Black Gwangjos are those who carry out their mission even to the point of giving up their lives like a kamikaze when the crown prince commands them.

They weren’t the kind of guys that could be kicked out just to live.

“Then, if it poses a threat to us, deal with it.”

“I will. However, I hope you understand that I can borrow Prause-sama’s help.”

“…… I will.”

I answered reluctantly and turned around. They whimpered and snatched their luggage from the children who were carrying them.

Maybe it’s because of the equipment, this is pretty heavy.

It was difficult because it was quite heavy, but I managed to load it onto the wagon.

“Thank you.”

“No. We will use it.”

Took.

He put her hand on Iris’s head and then lifted it. It was an unconscious act.

Iris’ ears and tail stood up at my action, and her pupils widened. Tina, Maria, and Dex, who were next to her, all looked surprised.

“How long will you be watching? Move quickly.”

“Ah, yes, yep!”

The wagon is loaded with everything, and even the children ride. Thelma yawned at her and looked into the tent and snorted.

“Let’s go.”

Tak!

As soon as I hit the horse, it began to move with a ‘Hi-ing!’ Sound.

That’s how the first trip with the hero began.
