Saikyou Juzoku Tensei ~Cheat Majutsushi no Slow Life~ Chapter 129

Chapter 129
“We’re finally seeing it . ”
Looking out from the carriage, I saw a row of buildings in the distance .
What looked like a wheat field was spread out in front of the buildings, but the weeds were all over the place and the essential wheat seemed to be dried up and wilted .
“…… Isn’t that pretty bad?”
I think that in a closed territory, total crop destruction could really destroy it……
That may not be all of them, but I’m getting more and more worried .
We may have come to a worse place than we thought .
Honestly, I’m starting to feel like it’s a good idea to consider making a U-turn and pretending we didn’t see this as an option .
I asked the carriage to slow down so as not to provoke the residents, and slowly approached the village .
To the left and right are fields…… rather than fields, the road is covered in weed .
“This…… Is some kind of magical weed . ”
Many of the grasses have a green, horsetail-like shape at the tip .
It resembles the demon grass called “flower withering” .
If the grass is of the same nature, it has the ability to take away the magical power of surrounding plants and use it as its own .
In addition, it uses the magic power it gains to immediately produce a large number of spores that are sent away, so the “flower witherer” itself has little nutrition .
I’ve read in a book that it’s quite a troublesome and powerful weed .
“Y-You there, who are you! Where did you come from and how did you get here!”
I heard voices ahead of us and two women came running .
The one who called out to me seems to be the short-haired woman running to us .
She was dragging one leg, but was coming towards us at a tremendous speed .
On one hand, she was holding a wooden mock sword in her hand .
“Hey, Euris! Your leg, you’re hurt so don’t be so reckless……”
I get out of the carriage and bow to the woman who was called Euris .
“My name is Abel . For some reason, I was wondering if you would allow me to live in your territory for a while……”
“Tha-, that’s not what I’m asking! You saw it, didn’t you? That three-headed dragon! Why are you here calmly……”
“I beat it . ”
“Don-, don’t joke with me! That can’t be true! Tell me the truth! I’m sorry, but we can’t afford to play along with the playfulness!”
I quickly point behind me .
A little later, Asura 5000 comes running in .
It has a rope strapped to its body and is dragging Nalgarn’s three necks .
“…………”
Euris silently rubbed her eyes, gasped, straightened her posture, and threw her mock sword to the ground .
“So-, so it was a messenger from the royal capital, this is a terribly rude thing of me do! Where are the soldiers……”
“No, I’ve been having a bit of a feud with my parents, so I was wondering if you’d be willing to shelter me here for a while . ”
“…………”
I wanted to gather information from Euris, and from there I decided to get out of the carriage with Mea and walk alongside Euris .
By the way, if I dragged Nalgarn’s head around the village, I might crush the building in some way, so I left it outside the village .
“…… I’m sorry for what I did just now . My name is Euris and that woman is Maya . Both of us serve the lord and maintain the security of the territory, such as thinning out the magical beasts on a daily basis . ”
The woman with the braids, called Maya, laughs and waves her hand, a little embarrassed .
She looks much lighter compared to Euris .
But…… I didn’t realize that the first thing I encountered was a decent Lark’s minion .
I wasn’t going to meet Lark until I was ready with my preparations, though .
At first, I rather wanted to meet with someone who had an antipathy to Lark .
“I have a lot of questions to ask you, but…… may I ask you to greet my lord first? My lord too, is very troubled by Nalgarn…… and I’m sure he will be very pleased . ”
She led me to the lord in a very natural way .
Accurately poking at the part we want to avoid .
“Eh…… ah, yeah . I’m sure you’re busy with a lot of things, so you don’t have to……”
“No, no, not at all! There is nothing more important to do than to thank the one who saved our territory from danger! You don’t have to feel reserved . ”
Apparently, they’re going to bring us no matter what .
I’ll just have to resign myself to bad luck .
If we avoid them carelessly, it will rather attract attention .
And no matter how vicious the lord is, he won’t do anything strange to the benefactor of their territory…… I’d like to think that .
“But how did you defeat that Nalgarn…… um, did you really defeat him? That Nalgarn……”
“It’s been set up with bio-magic, after all . However, it was a rather coarse magic circle, and the more it was activated, the greater the burden on the body . When I delivered the finishing blow, it was on the verge of death . ”
“…… That’s right, when he delivered the finishing blow, it was on the verge death . ”
“I see… so when he dropped the blue head, he was already considerably weakened . Then it wasn’t in vain, right?”
Euris said a little happily and let out a breath of relief .
“Ah, I’m sorry . I thought that if you were fighting an opponent that we couldn’t kill with all our might with just three people, we would indeed be in no position so……”
It seems that they had tried to subjugate it .
From the way she was talking, she hadn’t shown it to me earlier, but it seemed to bother her a lot .
Even though he is a vicious lord, she is still in the service of a nobleman .
No, rather, it’s because Lark is a vicious lord, it would be bad to act in a way that would make him lose her position .
It’s good to see that she was able to make a good impression .
I was caught in the act and smiled affectionately, and then Mea poked me in the shoulder reservedly .
“What’s up?”
“…… What if they see that bunch of heads?”
“…… Oh”
Even though its physical abilities would be diminished if its head was cut off, if she saw nearly twenty heads rumbling around, it would be obvious that it wouldn’t make much difference if one or two fell off .
It would be in the form of raising them as high as they could and then knocking them off .
“What are you talking about……?”
“N-, no, it’s nothing . ”
That head, really…… what do do .
“Really? Come to think of it, the person in the carriage seems to be a pure Norcs…… where are you people from?”
“It’s in the Kingdom of Dinrat . It’s a very rural area with a very strict code of conduct, and I’ve heard that many people don’t leave the village . ”
“Oh, I see . Sorry about that . ”
It seems that there are not many people who can recognize the Marren tribe at a glance .
It seems that they think we’re already extinct, so that’s no surprise .
The Doom tribe should be more famous than the Marren tribe, but the Mea may be difficult to recognize because she doesn’t have magic crystals on their foreheads .
The Norcs, who have a standard appearance and are the most numerous, are especially unfamiliar with the differences between the races .
It seems that the question she asked earlier also wanted to know which race, rather than which country they were from .
In fact, as soon as I revealed that I was from this country, she dropped the subject quickly .
Was there something that required her to be aware of other countries?
In addition to the no-good lord, the blockade of the territory by Nalgarn, and the damage to crops from the magic grass .
In addition, it looks like they have other things to worry about as well .
How can they have so much trouble?
…… Was this territory was a land mine, after all .
