I was Reincarnated While Trying to Climb the Mountain Chapter 259

Chapter 259

Episode 259

“Are you very sad?”

“Just what… … “I’ve seen it for a day and there’s nothing to be sad about.”

Called.

Erdin, who spoke, continues to look back.

The village was so far away that it could not even be seen as a small dot. It was natural since we traveled for half a day.

Moreover, he didn’t walk, but rather rode on Mayen’s familiar. If it wasn’t near the border between the central and southern continents, we would have already arrived in another town or city a long time ago.

Jeron looked at Erdin, who still had lingering regrets, and said.

“Actually, there were some guys spying on us last night.”

“… … “Who is it?”

Erdin slowly turns his head to look directly at Jeron and asks.

‘If it had been before, I would have asked you why you were stealing.’

Jeroen chuckled as he thought so. The guy who used to appear weak and passive when it came to fighting has grown a bit. It may take a little more time to be sure whether it is just this moment or whether it has truly grown.

‘Lorraine was the starting point that changed Erdin.’

In fact, it wasn’t enough for Jeron to burst into laughter.

I tried everything to change Erdin, but something unexpected turned out to be the trigger. Still, I had a greater desire to encourage rather than hit and reprimand. It’s difficult to have the opportunity, but it’s even more difficult to make up your mind. Whatever the reason, I cheered in my heart.

“I don’t know either. “I missed it.”

“Jeron missed it?”

Erdin’s eyes narrow. It’s not a look of disbelief. He thinks that the unknown watcher has excellent skills and has a look in his eyes that makes him wonder what kind of people they are.

“The ability to hide one’s presence is excellent. There was almost no trace left so I couldn’t track it. Write it. “I don’t know what kind of guy he is, but this is my first time doing something like this.”

“Is it an organization?”

“Things like that happen, too. … … Or maybe they are the ones who disturbed the orcs in the southern continent and made them move.”

There are two possibilities.

In the former case, there is no problem because as long as no harm is done to the Kingdom of Orne, the promise is not broken. However, in the latter case, there is no information, so it is difficult to know where to start digging.

The former situation is better than the latter.

‘I told you that if you ever go to the southern continent, be careful of a guy named Maiyan.’

Mayran knew that Jeron and his companions would go to the southern continent. No, it would be accurate to say that it was expected. So, according to the circumstances, a person named Maiyan was a member of an organization.

In the former situation, as thought above, if you delve into the character Maiyan, you will come into contact with the ghost town.

This is not a dead-end situation with no information.

‘I was naturally connected to the organization.’

Jeron left out the assumption that the ghost town might not have anything to do with the organization. But it doesn’t matter. Regardless of whether it is related or not, we will look into it and resolve it for Erdin’s growth.

“Next town… … No, let’s go straight to the city.”

“all right.”

Typically, cities have a temple for their religious order. When the city area is small, churches exist in small buildings. However, in a small town like a ghost town, you cannot even find the priest’s face or even his collar. Even if there was a priest, there was little information to be obtained, so you had to go to a big city.

“How many days does it take to get to the nearest city?”

“We have to go for about 7 more days.”

“Did Jajaksung say it would be 4 days in the next city?”

“huh.”

It takes 7 days to force a march to the next city. However, we had to march four more days into that city.

It was impossible to go directly to the city where the castle was located. I decided to stop by a nearby city first. After a few more hours, the sun began to set. We looked for a suitable place and pitched our tent.

The subspace pocket was very convenient in times like this.

There is no need to carry a heavy and large backpack.

“Mr. Jeron. “Please take out the cot.”

“Uh, wait a minute.”

“Mr. Jeron. “Please bring out the snack table.”

“Uh, wait a minute.”

“Mr. Jeron. “Please bring out a simple chair.”

“Uh, sleep… … Not Kahn! I’ll give you a subspace bag, so you can keep it. No. Install everything and return it.”

“Tsk.”

Erdin’s eyes sparkled when he heard that he would be given a subspace bag, but he clicked his tongue in disappointment.

‘I, I, greedy bastard.’

If you do that, you will become a pot-bellied, balding nobleman.

Jeron set up a camp around the tent. He installed a witch’s secret magic that detects approaching creatures from a radius of 100 meters and sends a signal. Normally, it would have ended with setting up a camp, but when you spend a day in a ghost town, the guy you were watching from afar might appear again.

There are limits to a witch’s secret arts. So, Jeron awakened his senses that had been dead as much as possible without causing a headache.

“This should be enough.”

I was a little disappointed that I might not have missed the guards if I had been more alert in the ghost town, but one mistake was enough. I had no intention of missing this time.

I had a light meal and went to bed.

“Aren’t you sleeping?”

“I can not sleep.”

Erdin looked at the tent ceiling with bright eyes and answered.

“Is it because of Lorraine?”

“yes.”

“okay. “Don’t sleep too late.”

“In times like this, isn’t it polite to at least ask why?”

“You may not be able to sleep, but I’m sleepy. I will sleep.”

Jeron said, pulling the blanket up to his forehead.

Erdin smiled and said.

“Jeron is sleepy?”

“Are you laughing at me?”

“If you laugh at me, you will be punished, but no way. You said that before. Once you reach the level of master, you can stay at your peak for several days and nights. “I’m not sleepy either, but if Jeron is sleepy, it hurts somewhere.”

It was clearly a mistake to think that ‘where’ was the head.

“okay. Then, out of courtesy, I’ll ask. “Why can’t I sleep because of Lorraine?”

“I don’t know either.”

“You wanna die?”

“That’s not it.”

The answer comes back right away. I thought he didn’t think anything, but it seems that wasn’t the case. If you answered ‘yes’, I was going to immediately turn the head 180 degrees.

“… … “Are you pitiful?”

“yes. I feel sorry for you. And it’s a pity. I’m angry at the people who made Lorraine like that. But I feel more angry at myself for not being able to do anything.”

“… … .”

“That guy. While eating food that isn’t even delicious, I say thank you because it’s so delicious and that I miss people’s embrace… … “I was so disgusted with myself that I felt pitiful and pitiful when I saw that.”

“… … .”

“Zero, are you sleeping?”

“no.”

“I see.”

Erdin continued talking after that.

I couldn’t quite remember the contents. It wasn’t something that went in one ear and out the other. What he wants is to be heard. Jeron didn’t remember her like she wanted and just listened quietly.

The next morning, we packed up the tent and set off again. Perhaps because of her complaints the night before, Erdin’s expression had improved a lot. She would occasionally look behind her, but it felt like she was making a resolution rather than regret or regret.

‘Should I tell you?’

Jeron thought seriously. The story Erdin complained about the night before. All the other party members heard it too. He may have been able to fool Erdin’s senses, but he couldn’t fool Jeron. In the morning, as everyone wakes up and prepares to move on, he secretly watches Erdin’s notice.

‘no. There is something good to know.’

It was obvious that if I told them, I would be in pain because they would have created dark history.

It’s better not to know about this and just move on.

As I looked at Erdin’s face, smiling brightly, unaware of his own feelings, I felt sick to my stomach.

I arrived at my destination city a day early.

This is because there were no obstacles such as attacks by monsters or thieves.

‘It’s not strange.’

The southern continent is in a V-shape, with an endless sea extending beneath it, so attacks by sea monsters and pirates were frequent.

It is a very peaceful place if there is no war going on inland.

If you ask what this has to do with the lack of attacks by monsters or bandits, the answer is that it is because orcs act as mercenaries and wipe out all monsters and bandits.

Orcs absolutely hate water and ships.

There was no particular reason, and it seemed like he just had an innate dislike for it. So the Orcs were only active in the inland areas, and aside from the biggest problems in the southern continent, which were sea monsters and pirates, the only things left were monsters and bandits.

The reason monsters were saturated in the Forest of Monsters and could not cause damage to other places could also be attributed to the orcs.

‘But if the Orcs start a war, no one knows what will happen in the future.’

There is a long time gap between when my father requested the adventurer’s guild and learned that the orcs were preparing for war, and now. It is no exaggeration to say that a war has already occurred.

Moreover, the fact that there were master-level orcs called High Orcs in the Forest of Monsters meant that they were clearly positioned to block any troops coming from the central continent to the southern continent.

‘I noticed that information was leaked.’

In fact, the orcs guarding the forest of monsters knew nothing. Even when I asked why there were high orcs, everyone just asked with an innocent(?) look if there was any problem with it.

‘If it was a High Orc, would you have known?’

Orakun and the unknown High Orc were great warriors with outstanding skills even among the Orcs. If we were to compare him to a gangster, it would be safe to say that he was a mid-boss or action leader. But Geron gave a negative answer to his own question.

‘He probably received orders to fight the warriors coming into the forest of monsters.’

After roughly organizing his thoughts, when it was his turn to pass through the city gates, Jeron submitted to the inspection.

“You came from the Central Continent?”

The soldiers who were checking looked at Jeron’s ID card and muttered in confusion. I didn’t feel any special suspicion or any other signs. He seemed to find the fact that he came from the Central Continent itself fascinating.

It was a natural reaction since the Southern Continent is such a closed continent.

In fact, everyone around them was busy looking at Jeron and his companions in wonder at the mention of the Central Continent.

“You came from the Central Continent?”

“Have you come across the forest of monsters?”

“no way. no way. “It must have come from a long way.”

“But these days, ships aren’t being launched because of the war…” … .”

I heard people whispering.

Among them, one of the words reached Jeron’s ears.

‘A war has broken out.’

On the border between the central and southern continents, there was a monster forest and a wide river flowing. To get to the southern continent without going through the monster forest, you have to turn around a long way and cross the river.

It is natural to take a boat to cross the river.

However, it is said that the ships are not launching because of the war.

‘I unintentionally attracted attention.’

Jeron clicked his tongue slightly.

“For what purpose are you visiting the city?”

The soldiers who were checking were more alert than before and asked.
