Chapter 388: The Second Day in the Dyeing Village
Tauro and his group spent two days in the dyeing village of Zenyu before their departure, and during that time they had the opportunity to interact with the villagers.
It was in the garden of the village chief’s house.
Tauro’s victory over the older Kosa, who was more confident in his skills, without injuring him, made the other young men want to learn stick fighting from Tauro.
“I’m really not an expert in stick fighting. ……”
Tauro declined the offer, answering the young people who had gathered there.
“Hey, hey, you guys. Our leader can do anything, but he’s good with bows and arrows and one-handed swords.”
Ankh explained, stepping between Tauro and the young men.
“You weren’t good at it, yet you managed to beat our Kossa? Then teach me martial arts!”
Ad
“Sure! That was awesome too! Kossa was on the ground in an instant!”
“I want to try that too!”
The young people approach Tauro with a relaxed attitude because he is younger than them.
“You guys, we are a team of D-rank adventurers. Our leader, Tauro, is someone who even at this age is looked upon by other adventurers. You are being a little rude.”*
Ragune also intervened between Tauro and the young men.
“I will not allow you to be rude to Tauro-sama!”
Zion also pushed back, getting in between the rude youths.
“Is this boy strong too?”
One of the young men pointed at Zion, who had came in between them.
Zion was about the same height as Tauro, with a hood pulled over her eyes and a thin presence.
From the young men’s point of view, she looked very weak.
Ad
“…Hey hey. After being rude to our leader, now you’re being disrespectful to Zion?”
Ankh, perhaps pissed, glared at the young people.
The young people looked at his sharp eyes,
“S-sorry.”
They couldn’t help but apologize.
“Zion, how about you take him on for a bit? How about you show him how you’re better at martial arts than me… Why don’t you beat him and teach him ……?”*
Tauro suggested, thinking that it would be a bad idea to leave his friends in the lurch, especially since some of the young men would be serving as guards under their command along the way.
“When it comes to martial arts, I’m as confident as Kossa.”
Among the young people, a young man with a large build came forward.
Compared to the smaller Tauro and Zion, it was like giants and dwarves.
Ad
It’s fair to say that that Tauro, who is the leader who took on kosa, is strong in person, but Zion, who is quiet and kills her presence next to him, certainly looks weak.
This alone gave the naïve youngsters the illusion that they might be able to defeat a D-rank adventurer.
“…Are you sure, Tauro-sama? He seem pretty weak…”
Theon said frankly that this large young man looked very weak.
“！── Then try to beat me!”
The hulking young man was enraged at the small child Zion and suddenly grabbed her.
Zion lightly brushed his hand away.
The huge young man’s face contorted for a moment, as if his hand that was swatted had hurt more than he had expected, but he went back to grab her again.
This time Zion dodged the two hands that were trying to grab her and stepped into his bosom, and the next thing they knew, the large young man’s body was lightly flying through the air, wondering what he’d done.
The giant young man leaps into air and falls, vomiting the contents of his stomach.
Zion dodged the falling young man by shifting her body to the side, and supported him with one hand to stop him from collapsing into the vomit.
The large young man was unconscious with his eyes rolled up.
Zion laid the hulking young man down and immediately began treating his stomach with recovery magic.
The young people who had been watching this sequence of events now gathered around her.
“You’re awesome!”
“You can do martial arts and use healing magic, are you a genius?!”
“How did you get it up in the air like that?!”
The young men were all trying to get close to Zion, but Zion was able to dodge them with her quick body movements and run away behind Tauro.
“Everyone, Zion is a girl, so please don’t try to touch her carelessly. If you do, we won’t tolerate it, okay?”
Ragune and Ankh showed a gesture of grabbing their respective weapons and lightly warned the young people of their lack of courtesy.
“I, I’m sorry… I never thought you were a girl. You were able to lift that huge den with your seemingly delicate body, so I thought you had incredible muscles, I’m really sorry.”*
The young men all sounded their apologies.
I understand what they are saying.
Zion’s monstrous power is beyond imagination.
In Tauro’s case, his strength was a result of the equipment he was using, but Zion’s strength must have come from the beginning.
Her strength may have increased further thanks to her training as a porter, as well as the training she received in the dragon-people village.
If this is how it is even when she goes easy on someone, it’s reassuring to think about what it will be like if she gets serious.
“I’m sure you’ll all follow our instructions on the escort mission. If something goes wrong, you could lose your life if you don’t.”
Tauro looked around at the young people and reminded them of this.
At that moment, the village chief’s daughter called out to him from the window of the house.
Ad
“Zion-san, you are really strong!”
the daughter clapped with joy as if it were her own achievement.
“You’re even stronger, aren’t you, Tauro-kun? You all guys are really amazing!”
the young lady raved about it, and the young men all looked smitten when they saw.
It seems that the village chief’s daughter is something of an idol in the village.
It would be sad for her to marry into another town.
Tauro thought that perhaps they had volunteered to be the guards in order to see it through to the end.
