The Desiring Boy! A Little Village At the Foot of Hell's Mountain! (V)
♤
After some time I went down the mountains of hell, I finally managed to take over a village and also the power among the goblins of the Hell Mountains.
But after all that happened I felt there was something completely out of my estimation.
"Suji, we are very, very grateful for saving this village."
"Yes! Accept our apologies for things before."
Is correct. Right now the villagers are thanking me, it makes me feel like a hero and it makes me a little upset.
'Shit, why is it like this?'
"That's it, you don't have to thank me. Besides, it's not because of my empathy for you guys, I just don't like it when something that belongs to me is destroyed."
'That's all.'
"Then, we will gladly accept you as the owner of this village."
'Oy, do you guys understand what I'm talking about?'
It made me take a deep breath and start thinking about taking advantage of them.
"Then will you follow all my policies?"
"Of course!"
Hearing that makes me smile, I will make them think of me as an evil monster now.
"Well, from now on you shall divide half of your crops to me!"
With confidence, I waited for a sharp answer from the villagers who were here. But unfortunately again it was not in accordance with my estimation.
"If that's what you want then we don't matter! Besides thanks to the machines that have returned to normal, we can sell our crops at a higher price!"
"Eh?"
"That's right, the royal people will pay more if the crops are already processed!"
'Is that right?! Are you guys sure?!'
Hearing that made my head really sick, then I went out from the presence of the villagers.
I walked over and said to them very loudly.
"Then, happy working hard! You all!"
""Yes!""
For a moment I felt quite upset, but imagining they would actually do that made me happy instead of playing.
Although I have never seen how money forms in this world, at least I can imagine a time when I could become the richest monster.
'It seems that the nickname of the richest monster is not bad either, hehe.'
By the way I myself was walking away towards the entrance of the village, it should be that the goblins would return if they really obeyed me.
While thinking about it all, the dark sky began to turn into a deep blue color that signified that the sun would soon appear.
And when I reached the entrance of the village and waited for a few minutes, I could finally see the goblins had returned.
Not only that, they also brought wood and stone to repair this damaged part of the village.
'Yeah, that's good. But..the number of them has really reduced a lot huh.'
With just a single look, the reduced number of them made me regret a little, I felt that I had damaged the ecosystem of this world.
On the other hand, the residents began to come out because of the rumbling sound produced by the footsteps of the goblins.
Of course it makes the residents wonder, as well as Edward and also Grandma Bei who also came.
"Hey! Are they going to carry out the next attack?"
"Can you explain this, son Suji?"
When I wanted to answer all those questions, Edward and the citizens who had seen everything that happened last night immediately answered all of them.
"No, Suji had asked them to repair this village before."
"That's right! Even teachers have become kings for goblins now!
"He even asked the goblins to guard our village from now on."
'Thank you for helping me answer all that, but since when did I become your teacher Edward?!'
Hearing that, the other residents felt amazed and proud to have a village leader like me.
Then the goblins who were getting closer finally came before me, they were all led by the rational goblins who had lost to Edward before.
"Following your previous orders, we goblins will execute all your commands."
At that time, following the movements made by the rational goblins who led them, the goblins dropped everything he brought. At the same time their attitude changed like facing a king.
Seeing that certainly made me feel satisfied, and to fulfill this role I would do something like a king.
"Thank your faces."
Seeing that the goblins started to raise their faces and look at me.
"I am Suji, the most evil monster in the world. I who am king to you shall bear the sins and evils you have."
'Ew! I can talk like that?! I feel so embarrassed and proud damn it!'
"It's an honor for us to do everything you want."
"Good, now you must cooperate with these humans and you must help each other."
"""Yes!"""
At that time I realized that it was not only the voices of the goblins who answered my orders, when I looked back I could see the citizens doing the same attitude as the goblins.
'Th-this seems like an exaggeration! I'm getting nervous!'
Right, everyone here has lowered his body along with one knee that touched the ground.
"E-ahem! Then for you rational goblins, I appointed you as the representative of the goblins."
"Understand sir."
'true. It would be very difficult to call him if I didn't know his name.'
"Name? ...I-I'm sorry, but we goblins don't have names and again regular monsters just fine"
"So from now on I'll give you Trax's name."
Hearing that made him very surprised, and at that moment a white magic light appeared on the chest or heart area belonging to Trax.
Shortly after, the white light turned into a bright magic circle and slowly a strange symbol appeared there.
'What is that?'
While I was perplexed by what was going on, Trax who was experiencing it all seemed very incredulous.
Until finally,
"HOOO! A pride for me to have this symbol! I-I Trax, will take the goblins through the same path as you sir!"
'What the hell is that?'
Trax who looked very happy immediately returned in his calm, and at that time I could also see the shape of the symbol.
Looks like a birthmark that blends with the skin, the symbol looks like the shape of a dragon head that is in a circle.
Outside the circle itself there are strange letters that surround it like a vortex.
I didn't bother myself with it but after the symbol appeared on Trax's chest, I could feel a different flow of mana appearing on my body.
After a while of examining this feeling, I finally realized that this was the mana or power Trax had.
In short, we may have been connected or intertwined by a strong enough bond.
'It's interesting.'
Yep. Although I don't know about all this, but because I'm a little interested I'll try to find him.
That way, I'll finish all this and disperse everything. For a moment I felt like a company boss doing a morning briefing.
The rising sun made the atmosphere turn completely bright, the real morning had arrived and that was when I decided to continue my journey.
But, uh,
"Hoaaam~"
'Damn, I sleep less.'
Yep, even so I will actually leave this village today.
♤
I walked away from Grandma Bei's house after taking all my belongings, just then Grandma Bei who was watching the area outside the house realized that I was going to leave this village.
"So you're going, son?"
"Yes. I told you that I just wanted to stay here. Even if I finally take over this village anyway."
"Hahaha, that's okay. After all, this village is indeed the time to experience a change."
"That sounds like grandma thinks of me as a good monster huh?"
"Not really. Grandma just assumed that the white one wasn't necessarily clean, and the black one was dirty."
"Haha! So anyway, since grandma's old then I'll just hear it."
'But unfortunately, sometimes it is just a classic word of wisdom.'
In the end even if they know someone's true nature is good, they will sometimes lie to themselves, and keep racing to their ugly first impression.
'Or in short, it all ends with two choices. Like it or not.'
At least that's what I learned from my previous world.
"Yosh's. I'm asking you to take care of this village business while I'm gone, Grandma."
"I understand, ..Then take this."
'This...'
A roll of paper tied to a red string was given to me by Bei's grandmother, seeing that it left me so distraught that Bei's grandmother continued her words.
"This is a map of the world, although it seems like you would be fine without a map. Keep bringing this."
"W-w-why, thank you."
I kept the map under my fur cloak, and soon I left in front of Bei's grandmother.
"When you meet again, Grandma."
"Yes, I hope your journey is smooth."
I walked in the opposite direction from the entrance of the village, in short I avoided the citizens who would definitely ask about my departure.
'But did it get that far?'
When I thought about that, I finally reached the very back of this village. The back that also has a rock wall makes me have to jump to get through it, lucky I am a strong monster and it is not a big deal.
When I landed, I looked back at this village where I thought I had wasted my time in this village long enough.
Even so, I am still happy because my territory is increasing. Not forgetting that I now have an army of goblins.
Bzt!
When I thought that, a small jolt in my mind appeared. Soon another voice appeared in my mind.
[T-sir is this you?? ]
Hearing that this was Trax's voice, I realized that we were now telepathic. Unfortunately I don't know why this could have been triggered, but it seems to be thanks to the bond that has been established between us.
[Yes, it's me Suji. I just want to tell you that I have left this village, until I return I ask you to take care of the security of the village. ]
[ Yes! ]
Bzt!
But after all that I felt a little less for not saying goodbye to that one boy, at least I guess one day he could become a hero in this world or become a great adventurer.
'A boy who wants yes...'
