episode_0003

I was in big trouble.

It looked like a pretty girl was being surrounded by three men, so I unconsciously stopped the men.

So far so good.

Even though the male protagonist who was trying to save the female protagonist from being ripped off by the gangsters after having a hard time deciding what to say after stopping him, asked the question as if he were saying, ‘I’ll ask you the directions~’, I wasn’t embarrassed.

···I wasn’t ashamed!

The biggest problem right now is that I don’t really remember what Yuna Mayel looks like.

···Did Yuna look like that?

If someone hears about this situation, they might criticize me and call me an idiot, and I think so too, but I had an excuse.

Almost a month has passed since I fell into this forest. In the meantime, the day passed by with my excitement level reaching its peak and me going out of my mind.

It’s hard to remember even the details of games you were impressed with after a month or so.

I wasn’t impressed with the game, and I didn’t spend a lot of time on it either. Of course, it was fun enough to stay up all night on the weekend, but in the end, that was all.

It’s not like I haven’t thought about writing it down in a notebook or something.

Since I didn’t know when the tutorial would start, I didn’t know if it would take a year or 10 years.

I tried a lot, but I couldn’t find an inventory feature anywhere.

All that’s left is inventory in a place where no one is around! item! Item box! All I could do was shout my back and struggle in shame.

In the end, when I fell into this forest, all I was given was the body of a Yagame warrior and a status window.

In other words, I had no means of recording anything as I fell naked without a weapon or anything like that.

In the end, what I remember is going around various areas, defeating the Four Heavenly Kings, collecting four important things that the Four Heavenly Kings are holding, opening the door to the Demon King’s Castle, and catching the Demon King, and that’s the ending.

It was literally just an outline.

In the case of tutorials, I compulsively memorized the start of the game on a rainy day… the start of the game on a rainy day… so I was able to remember it.

Of course, I don’t remember only those, but I also remember a few other minor things.

For example, the names and occupations of the hero’s companions, and the fact that Yuna, the person I’m looking for, is an excellent mage who graduated first from the academy.

···Huh, wizard?

Now that I think about it, the pretty kid over there wearing a robe looks like a wizard…?

“There, pretty wizard girl.”

“Yes, yes?! U-are you talking about me!?”

“Okay. By any chance, what is your name?”

Hmm, I’m very confused.

Well, a strange woman came to me and said, “I’d like to ask you for directions.” If you grab a man’s wrist and then ask the woman next to him for his name as if you were talking to him, he would be embarrassed.

…What is this, a hero?

“Eh, that’s Yuna Mayel…”

Oh, you win.

Hey, that’s a relief. If it weren’t for Yuna, it would have been a bit difficult. Because there were no more clues.

I hate the forest now.

“Hey… are you okay?”

Yuna hesitated and asked me.

huh? What’s the problem? I tilted my head, but May secretly pointed to the back of my hand.

···What’s behind my hand?

“You bitch, let go of this hand!”

“Fuck, bro! This bitch’s knife won’t stick!”

“Damn it, what are you doing, you idiot!”

[Attack by Bandit A!]

[Airi received 1 damage!]

[Rogue B’s attack!]

[Airi received 1 damage!]

[Attack by Bandit C!]

[Airi received 1 damage!]

When I looked back, the man who had grabbed my wrist earlier and the two people next to him were stabbing me with a knife.

···I forgot. Why are these guys so non-existent?

As soon as I noticed it, I put aside the countless 1-damage spread out in one corner of my vision and asked Yuna.

“Yuna, are these your colleagues?”

“Yes, four?! No! Absolutely not! The fact that I was even with those guys even for a moment is a disgrace in itself!”

Hmm, he gets very angry and hates it.

If so, there must be a very simple way to solve it.

“Kwaaa

“Tongue, brother?!”

As I tightened my grip on my wrist, the hand of the thief who was called my brother was crushed like a piece of paper.

Immediately after that, a stain appeared on his groin, and along with a sour smell, he lost strength and fell to the floor, except for the wrist he was holding.

···What, are you dead?

I thought I could endure it differently from the goblins. With just this much force, the bones in my hand turn to dust and die. Perhaps because it’s a tutorial, I’m quite weak.

No, but if the bones in your hands turn to dust, does that mean you die instantly…? You may die from excessive damage, but is this really the right way to die? If you look at a movie, it seems like he cut off his own hand without being sober…

When I thought about it, it felt like I had just been hit with a cotton club without any knives.

The world in the game is profound…

“Monster… monster…!”

“···Brother is dead. Hey, let’s run away quickly! Before that monster takes interest in us!”

It’s rude to call people monsters!

Of course, my strength will be stronger than that of the monster. Because it is a body that has captured the devil.

But I don’t attack people or anything! It’s not a monster, it’s a hero!

I picked up stones from the floor to punish those shameful thieves.

Those kids were judged by the system to be thieves. I’m sure I’ve lived my life hurting people.

The three people clearly seemed to be threatening Yuna when they first saw her. Was it an attempt to harm Yuna?

When I thought about it, I found it embarrassing. How dare you call me a monster and even attack my (soon to be) colleague Yuna?

Although I do not harm people, thieves are not people. It’s a monster disguised as a human. This is a clear fact that is also shown in the Goguryeo subak painting.

I threw the stones I had picked up at the monsters that were running away.

The monsters seemed happy to have a hole in the back of their head, and were sharing their joy by kissing the ground.

Monsters must be killed, no mercy.

“So, girl.”

To reassure Yuna, he smiled and looked sideways at the status window.

[Current Goal ▶ I met the wizard girl, Yuna Mayel! If you follow her…? ]

Before I knew it, I had confirmed my goal and spoke while suppressing the feeling of wanting to shout and cheer.

“Can I ask you directions?”

***

The weather was really nice, as if it were a lie to say that it rained hard the day before.

Yesterday, I spent the night in the cave where I had been staying for a month with Yuna, who couldn’t move because her legs were giving out.

Yuna shook her head and said it was okay, but since she was injured, she decided that it was better to rest, so she forced her to take her to the cave and let her rest.

The problem was eating, but Yuna, who knew how to sleep, started a fire and roasted the pink berries that were lying around and ate them.

At first, I was embarrassed and tried to make him spit it out, but I told him that it was okay and that if I heated it, the weak ingredients would disappear and he held it and told me to eat it too.

I was skeptical, but when I saw him eating it deliciously, I took a bite and it was more delicious than I expected.

…I thought it was okay as long as I didn’t eat it raw, and I became depressed for no reason.

“Airi! I think we’ll get there if we walk a little further!”

Where had yesterday’s gloomy appearance gone? The small body and long, fluffy hair, combined with that lively appearance, reminded me of a puppy.

Well, now that I think about it, I looked like a puppy that got caught in the rain yesterday…

“Airi, what will you do when you arrive in our village?”

Should I really call him the lead of a night game? His lively and bright appearance was really cute. To a dangerous degree.

Last night, I watched Yuna while she was sleeping peacefully in the cave, exhausted.

I was wondering if I could remember even a little of the main story that I had forgotten.

But what I remembered was not the main story, but Yuna’s H CG.

The image of Yuna screaming after being betrayed by her colleagues. They were probably the thieves who lost their lives to me.

When I thought of that scene, my excitement level, which had dropped to the low 40s, quickly soared to the low 60s, and I felt cold.

Wow, he definitely looked excited, but it was unfair.

I was a handsome man in his 20s. Thinking about things like that can make you a little excited, right…?

“···Sir! Airi! You are listening to me, right?”

Before I knew it, Yuna was right in front of me, puffing out her cheeks and protesting to me.

···The way he gets angry is also cute. Such a cute kid did something like that…

[Excitement has increased! 71/100]

Holy shit.

My body gradually began to heat up due to the sin of having strange thoughts about Yuna.

shit.

I got so excited that I apologized to Yuna, who was angry, hiding my red face as much as I could.

“I’m sorry. I was thinking about other things so I didn’t hear. What was it about?”

“Airi was asking me to speak comfortably! . . . But, you can speak comfortably.”

“No, I’m more comfortable this way. I’m sorry if it’s uncomfortable.”

“Ugh, if that’s what Airi thinks… But you can always feel free to say it!”

“Yeah, someday.”

I didn’t want to use such a harsh tone towards Yuna, who was much smaller than me.

I didn’t know this because I’ve been living alone for a month, but my voice doesn’t come out unless it’s in this stiff tone.

I am guessing that it may be because of the way the warrior originally used the language.

“Oh, Airi! We’ve arrived! Hey, can you see it!”

Just as Yuna said, a small village began to appear in the distance.

Is that Yuna’s hometown?

Once we were completely out of the forest, a well-maintained road began to be paved, and it wasn’t long before we arrived at the village entrance.

“Welcome, Airi! To Venere, the village of beginnings!”

Was it because she arrived in the village after a month, or was it because of her happy expression?

It was difficult to control my itching heart.
