Chapter 47 – Bad News Came from Afar

Editor: Deus Ex Machina


The next day after Renya party send off Prince Gerard’s convoy.
Renya party splits the work necessary for them to prepare for their journey so they can depart from Rugartia continent.
Hlidskjalf food storage condition is still worrying so they need to plan their course first in order to easily procure foodstuff in the en-route to their destination.
Then again, if they start to cultivate their own foodstuff like vegetable and fruit, they can live a self sufficient lifestyle like a farmer. They don’t have that kind of intention for the time being though.
They split up and go around the market to do shopping while also saying their goodbye to their acquaintances in the capital. They also pay visit to people that had given good treatment to them in work and especially not forgetting asking for an extra service when they buy something from the merchant they know.
If you work with good intent and respect toward the locals, they will definitely respect you back. Renya thinks that this kind of common sense is also applied in this world as well. He can’t help but feeling warm inside from that thought.
The shop that Renya visit the last is the butcher shop that deals with raw meat.
The owner of this butcher shop is a woman with a large physique and a hearty personality that would make people wanting to call her ‘mistress’ naturally. Renya had done job to help this shop stock up meat quite a few times before. The mistress even praises Renya for his excellent skill in dissembling the meat so she often request Renya to do such job for her. But of course, it was not actually Renya who do the dissembling, it was dissembling plant inside Hlidskjalf that done so for him.
She asks him why he bought so much food stuff at once so Renya just tell them that because the job that he accepted had finally over, he planned to continue his journey and leave the continent.


“Is that so? The meat that you provide was great, such a pity. Why don’t you just buy a house and settle here in the capital?”
“I still want to travel around the world to see many things yet. I’m still such a small guy inside that I have yet to be satisfied to settle anywhere”
“Ahahaha, you have already bring along such gorgeous flower garden with you and still feel insatiable by it? Well indeed if you are a guy like you must still be raving for more”


The shopkeeper lady laughs heartily at that. She seems to like Renya’s answer. He is indeed still young. He should go brave the world and make sure where his limit is.


“Then here some service for you. Think of it as a farewell gift from this auntie. I really appreciate your help”
“Oo~, you’re welcome. And also thanks”
“It’s nothing really. I won’t ask where you are going but you better not end up kicking the bucket somewhere out there you hear!”
“Of course, I won’t easily die like that”


After exchanging such nonsensical talk, Renya left the butcher shop.
He brings two big leather sacks that is tied by a rope walking back to the inn where his companions await.
The Capital City - Rugartia.
He had stayed here longer than he had expected and now, he thinks that it is already a good time to go. He has some reasons for it.
First, even if he says longer in Eribeiris continent, there already no more dungeons or ruins that tickle his interest.
This world is not a game. So of course in any known dungeon and ruins that is already touched by the hands of human, finding treasure chests conveniently around the dungeon entrance is something impossible to happen. If anyone had explored the dungeon then it means that any precious things should have already been swiped clean.
The next reason is that the monster and magic beast around here are already too weak and won’t be a worthy opponent any longer for Renya and his party members. The only useful thing from them is that their body parts can be harvested for money but that’s not a reason enough for them to stay in this continent.
The most profitable work in this continent is only the distress call for help from many guild within the continent because they would need a lot more hand to work because of the confusion from the process of unifying the kingdom but Renya decide to let the native people handle it on their own. So with that, Renya concluded that there are no more reasons for them to keep staying here.

Because they possess Hlidskjalf now, they can just go anywhere they want but it would be a trouble if anyone become suspicious of them if they suddenly appears in some unexpected places. That’s why after they discuss about it among themselves, they decided to go to somewhere this continent charted shipping route. And their choice that they think the safest is the most influential continent around Eribeiris that is located far north from here.
Renya still don’t know any detail about that place but seems like there are no good enough reason to reject the idea so he also approves of it. Well then, what kind of encounter that they will meet there? As Renya is daydreaming about what will happen next, he hears a trotting voice that approaching him from the back so he look back at the source.


“Oh, is that you Elvira?”
“Yes, it is me. But Renya-sama, how can you tell that it was me?”
“Hahaha, of course I naturally can differentiate between the four girls that follow me. Why ask?”
“Oh my, as expected of Renya-sama. I have finished with my part of work so do you mind my company?”
“You know that I definitely won’t reject your request so you finish your part hastily right? Dear me, what should I do with you, Elvira. You are just too good in asking for favors”
“That’s mean…… But it was indeed the fact”
“Why? I am complimenting you, you know~?”
“To ‘praise’ me in such way in the middle of the main street… I really think that Renya-sama is indeed a meanny……”
“But don’t you like it this way?”
“…… I don’t know what you are talking about”


Even if she acts like that, Elvira still comes close to him and hugs his left arm tenderly. In her left hand is big leather sack. While Renya’s two leather sacks are tied by ropes so he also can bring both of the sack with only his right arm with no problem.
At that moment, instantly from a part of the surrounding people, a gaze filled with jealousy and envy shoot directly toward Renya from all directions.
This guy really doesn’t know the world self-restraint at all. Even in the capital’s busy road, he still flirts around like it was natural for him. Because of this, his popularity amongst the capital’s male citizen is extremely bad.

What did he really do to make the male citizen this angry?
Well he just did some window shopping date with Floria.
Or forcing Brenda who had become dere in front of him to date in a coffee shop.
Or having a drinking date with Elvira who starts to get more aggressive with her approach in a bar.
Or going to a tool shop date with Therese who are pretty popular along one part of the ‘gentleman’.
In the worse time, he would have flowers on both of his hands. Moreover each time the people see him, the girls he have in his hands already changed from the one he had before. With his plain look, he boldly flirts around with super-gorgeous class pretty girls. The guy that everyone thought to be the same commoner like them is able to do such miraculous thing. Of course everyone man would get jealous.


“To get sandwiched in such gigantic boobies while walking around like that…… Go die motherfucker!”
“Just having one from those beautiful girls is already enviable, yet he has 4 of them. It is just not fair”
“and showing off their sweet time without restraint like this…… go get eaten by monster! The guy only!”
“Therese-tan~ Haa~ Haa~” (the usual perverted way when breathing heavily)


The opinion of the city male population is more or less like this.
By the way that last guy, Renya will personally make him get some trouble with money and other things for a while, a simple-unflashy kind of divine punishment. But no matter how one think of it, this problem begin with Renya after all so Brenda might rebuke him that this divine punishment is a misappropriate usage if divine power for self interest if she knows about it.


[Whoever looks at Therese with lustful eyes beside me myself is a sinner. Therefore I will pass judgment with the authority given to me as the war god]


Is how Renya pass his judgment in a very haughty manner while being pleased with himself.
Well those guys stress would end today anyway.

After Renya and his party left the city, the capital male citizen gather together in a certain bar to celebrate his departure but that would not be included in this story and is not even related whatsoever.

Renya just keep on enjoying the feeling in his left hand without caring the envious gazes in the slightest. This sensation to his skin is very heavenly that it would be impossible for him to feel bored from it. He continues walking back to his inn and when he comes back, everyone had already finished their preparation to leave. He got the most shopping to do so it was not weird for him being the latest to come but this party have the punctual and proper member, Brenda, and she had already help finishing Renya’s preparation for the trip. Renya just obediently says his gratitude to her.


“My bad, I left you do all the works to sort our inventory alone”
“It’s fine. Aren’t you already taking care of the shopping for the heavier necessities alone as exchange?”


Indeed for Renya party who mostly are vagrant, they don’t have that much luggage to begin with so it was not that hard to pack it all yet Renya doesn’t forget to show his gratitude to her works even if it is a minor one. After all, Renya doesn’t want to and doesn’t mean to be a domineering husband in the least. After that, they immediately checked out from the inn while giving their farewell to the innkeeper to show their gratitude from taking care of them all this while. Then, after they walked for a few tenths of minutes, they successfully leave the capital city.
They pass the city gate and walk awhile until they reach a small hill that have an overlook view of the capital. They could teleported directly to Hlidskjalf if they want to because there already no one around but, Renya wants to get soaked in the feeling of going on a trip for a bit longer.


“Now when I look back, there were many things happened when we stay here”
“Right~? Who guess we get to experience such a jam-packed event in our first continent”


Even so, Renya can’t blame Floria for that because after all, that all was happened only by chance.
And from experiencing multiple of such ‘chances’ that Renya managed to meet with Brenda, Therese, and Elvira thus managed to get them to join his party and also to become his wife (candidates). Even for Renya, these happenings were series of shocking event. Who have thought that Renya was sad when he first got here t because he can’t trigger any flag?


“Well then, for the time being we still have some matter to discuss and there’s also the need to arrange the ship interior so we probably would settle inside Hlidskjalf…… What the!?”
“Renya-sama, that way!”


While talking, Renya suddenly felt a presence is approaching him from up above so he turn his gaze abruptly to the presence source. Floria and Elvira also managed to realize ‘that’ existence while Brenda and Therese can’t, so they just follow the other gaze point to make sure of that something.
A crack suddenly appeared out of thin air. And from there, a familiar human is falling out.
No, the one that falls is not a human. ‘It’ is a male who wears a tattered yet familiar black robe with handsome face and a flaxen colored hair just like Elvira.
He is Elvira’s older brother, Deen Blackford, a dragon that assumes a human form.
Flying as a dragon in the air would attract too much attention so he must’ve used a kind of stealth magic to hide his appearance so the phenomenon like what just happened before their eyes can happen.  He probably manages to find their current position from detecting Elvira’s presence. Seeing Deen falls in his human form, Renya feel a bit of fortune in this misfortune and heaves a sigh. Because a sight of dragon crash landing in a place near human settlement would definitely cause bombastic commotion.


“Elder Brother!? Just what in heaven happened!?”
“Elvira, calm down! His wound is terrible. You better not carelessly move him or it might cause more damage!”


Looking at Deen condition that is on the verge of dying made Elvira panic and made her reflexively run toward him but Renya hastily stops her. He don’t know yet whether there are any differences between human and dragon anatomy so he can’t be sure but Deen life pulse power that he felt is indeed very weak.


“El……vira…… and also Renya-sama……”
“Are you conscious Deen-san……!? No, that’s not important now. Just don’t push yourself talking! I will immediately treat you”
“The village…… don’t co…… me close…… to the village El…… vira……”


With a ragged breathing, Deen is only able to say that much until he falls unconscious. Renya feels that the weight that he holds on with his hand which supports Deen gets heavier. When he take a good look at Deen’s condition, he can see a big laceration wound dripping with blood under his ripped robe. Even when he suffer from such terrible wound that even a dragon’s high vitality and strength couldn’t handle with, he still travels from far away while bearing such wound just because he is worried about his little sister.
Renya just can’t leave such heroic man to his death. Renya immediately gives command to Anrietta via telepathy. He also gives more commands to his party member.


“Floria, Hurry teleport Deen to the ship! And then quickly treat him with divine power healing arts!”
“Okkey~!”
“Everyone else for the time being be on standby and gather! Anyway let’s go to Hlidskjalf first……! Anri, emergency! Immediately send all personnel here abroad by teleport!”
[Roger. Using master’s highest administrator level control, I have skipped the process to check the unidentified guest. Teleport is now commencing]


With Anri’s voice suddenly reverberates out from nowhere, the party + 1 guest instantly teleported to Hlidskjalf.
While all these things happen, Elvira keeps on holding her unconscious older brother hand while even when her own hand is trembling.





“Fui~. This is my first time treating a dragon man(?) but seems like I’ve done a good job~”


Deen who is now lying down on one of the guest room has received adequate treatment and his complexion looks much better now. Renya nimbly changes his tattered robe with a same new one that Renya immediately made on the spot. He is the only man in the party so only he can do it.
Elvira heaves a sigh after knowing that her older brother condition is improving but she still can’t drive away the worry that weighs her hearts.


“Then again…… Who was it that could hurt elder brother to this extent……”
“I heard that Deen-san is a far cry from Elvira’s strength but…… how strong is he actually?”
“Elder brother was the strongest male in the village. Even if he’s not that strong, to think that someone could hurt someone from our dragon kin badly like this…… If I remember correctly, there should be no internal conflict within our tribe either……”


Indeed if it was another dragon then they could possibly hurt Deen that badly. But according to Elvira, each tribe of dragon made their own community and each community are located in a far remote region that is impossible for normal human to reach while living a frugal life.
It’s been ages since the last hegemonial conflict and they also don’t have any conflict regarding their territory. Elvira keeps on explaining her circumstances in small voices. She just can’t figure out any reasons that could cause such danger to befall her older brother.


“Don’t come near the village, he did said that right? Does this village mean Elvira’s?”
“Yes, I think it is indeed about my village which is hidden depth in the north continent’s mountain range. This hidden village is where my tribes live in but…… ”


But it is not enough to draw conclusion with only these clues.
There’s no other way besides waiting for Deen to regain his consciousness and listen to the detail so she stop talking further.


“Well, for now, we can only wait for Deen-san to wake up first……”


But, the time when Deen wakes up will surely be the time for another chaos or conflict to start.
His instinct as the war god is telling him so.
