Tensei Shitara Slime Datta
Chapter 323: Daily Life
Cabal, Ellen and Gido stagger on the road.
Their faces looked exhausted as they stopped in front of the building they often passed by. Then they weakly pushed the door open and entered.
It was a cheap inn and bar. Since the three of them were rather poor, they often came here.
After securing their room, they meet at the bar.
As soon as they issue a series of ****** inside, they open their mouths to let out all the anger they have built up inside.
"That's why I denied it!"
"Absolutely. I remember saying that I had a bad feeling about it! ”
“You how else now! I would never have thought that the Twin Snakes would appear when we were supposed to hunt down some big snakes! "
"But, but we've hunted all four of them …"
"And there's only one left to hunt …"
“We should be grateful that we can at least negotiate it so that the search does not fail. ”
The cabal spat, as if saying there was no point in arguing. The cabal understood why the others wanted to complain. But being a leader means you have to listen to the complaints of others.
At that time, their beer was brought to their table. That was the right time.
As if wanting to forget all those bad memories, the three of them instantly stuffed the cup into their mouths. While they had not failed in the quest, their reward money had been reduced by half and the acidic saliva that the twin snakes released when they escaped, had made them need to repair their equipment. The more they thought about it, the worse their losses would be. They cannot continue without drinking.
They didn't have enough money to buy new equipment, so they had to settle for fixing it …
"Ahl. I want a dwarf-made armor too. But the price is a few pieces of gold even at the lower end .. ”
"That's too expensive, Cabal. I wanted to buy a new robe myself, but I knew I couldn't. ”
"We are too poor .. We should be happy that we even live after what happened. ”
"really. We got away from the Twin Serpent. And they sent a hunting party because of our report. We should be happy that no civilians were injured! ”
"Yes yes . Our savings are lost due to repairs. That's no big deal! "
Cabal tries to be as optimistic as Gido, but Ellen's words are enough to remind him how sad their reality is. Ellen also looked grim, and oppressive air fell on top of them. The cabal was just about to suggest that they should drown their troubles in drinks, go to bed, and start again tomorrow! When
"Hey, did you hear about that?"
"G . You mean a house deep in the mountains past the village of Giena? They said there was a search that offered ten gold pieces as a reward. ”
He heard the conversation of two men from the table next to them. They were quite drunk, and could not say that their voices were loud. The three of them became aware at the mention of the ten gold pieces, and they straightened their ears with a serious expression.
"So, you were paid ten gold pieces for killing that monster …"
"Hey, hey. That's ridiculous. Why do they pay you so much? "
“Well, it was a search that did not pass through the guild. So since there are no commissions, you can earn more. ”
“But doesn't that mean the monster's power is uncertain? Surely no one would be that stupid to accept it? "
“Ten gold pieces are very alluring. But Giena village is far away. I wouldn't have gone there if I wasn't sure I could have killed him. ”
"Absolutely. It would be smarter to take on smaller jobs. ”
The men said with a laugh. They soon forget about the subject and go to brag about their personal exploits.
Cabal, Ellen, and Gido looked at each other.
"Well, we just finished the last search and it has nothing to do …"
"Yes .. And I heard that mountain vegetables are good all year long …"
With a suitable opinion, they nodded at each other.
Their eyes were filled with greed and it was clear that none of them thought of danger.
◇◇◇
Cabal, Ellen and Gido ran desperately.
They were so close to the exit when it appeared in front of the door.
It was a lower demon.
The lower demons were ranked 'B +', and so no one knew if their side, which was ranked 'B', could defeat him.
According to the guild, you should only fight with monsters that rank equal to you or lower. Since there was no guarantee you could win against a stronger monster, it was considered a suicide.
But why did this happen to them from the beginning …
The party once stayed one night in the village of Giena before visiting the mansion in the mountains.
That's where they hear the search details. And since it was already night, they were invited to stay over.
They do not realize that it is a trap until they sit down to have dinner with the host.
"Oh, do you really not mind that we eat all these foods?"
"Everything is delicious!"
“You leave this giant bear to us. We'll handle it for you! "
"Ha ha ha . You young people are very reliable. Now eat. We still have more! ”
"Thank you!"
“Yes, very good! Can you fatten us up so you can eat us later? ”
"Hahaha ... what? What did you just say?"
"Uh, umm .. Can you fatten us up so you can eat us?"
"…"
“………. ”
Ellen's joke made the master laugh uneasily.
It was so unnatural that Ellen forced herself to smile.
"Uh ... are you ... really serious?"
"Heheh . Ahaha! Very good, you are human. It's not exactly as I planned, but I'll just kill you here and take your meat. ”
The master said. Then he removed his disguise, revealing his true form.
The three of them decided to retreat the moment they saw him. And that's how their desperate escape began.
After a long run they finally reached the door.
“We must prepare for our fate now! Let's kill it! ”
"Madam, that's easy to say, but .. Oh, fine. ”
"Hey, hey. I'm the leader here. All right, let's do this! ”
The two men agreed with Ellen. Thus begins the battle in which they use all their goods, fully realizing that they will be destroyed once this is done.
