Episode 20 Turning Point

Time passed in the blink of an eye when I listened to Aisha's talk.

Before I noticed, it was already evening. Since Aisha needed to take a rest, I was lost on what should I do next.

As I to returned back to my own room, the inside of the mansion suddenly became very busy.

I walked out of the room, curious; apparently Roxy had e back earlier than scheduled.

The scheduled return would have been tomorrow morning. The housemaids were moving hurriedly because of this sudden return as there were many things to do, such as preparing the bath and the meals.

I glanced at them as I hurried to Roxy.

It was because I wanted to know as soon as possible about what she thought after looking at the valley where she was supposed to hunt kobolds.

There she was! She removed her light armor at the door.

[Roxy-sama! Wele home.]

[Ah, Fate. I've just returned.]

As I thought, she looked gloomy. If anyone saw the disastrous scene of that valley, they would be like that.

Well, in return, the Kobolds seem not to be ing any longer.

My mind throbbed as I listened to Roxy..

[Did something happen? You've returned earlier than scheduled.]

[You see…]

Roxy, who finished removing her light armor, explained to me the mysterious scene in the valley.

This morning, she acpanied her armed men into the valley. And the scene that spread out before their eyes when there got there was a ravine ravaged by a powerful attack. The beautiful nature had been lost, the trees had collapsed and the ground had been gouged out.

It seemed to be unexpectedly different from the valley that they saw every year. Yeah… Even for me, who was the one who caused it, thought that it was too much, so the reactions of the Roxy and her group was unsurprising.

Roxy asked the men who followed her to immediately investigate the surroundings.

There was nothing left in the valley, as if everything had disappeared; no one understood what had happened.

However, they discovered the corpses of 10 Junior Kobolds and 2 Assault Kobolds in the rocks not far away from there.

When she arrived at the scene with the guidance of the man who found the Kobold corpses, the Kobolds seemed have been killed by swords and arrows that littered the ground. All of the Kobolds were one-sidedly destroyed.

Especially the Assault Kobolds, which were quite strong monsters. They were impossible to beat down unless one was a Holy Knight.
