Chapter 1, Episode 19: Premonition

Two days after the nameless battle on the wasteland

Imperial Year 1023, May 28

Liz, Hiro, Tris, and 8 heavy infantry on all fours alongside the their horses 8 sels (24 km) away from the border town of Links

Though there were 150 soldiers at the beginning of the journey, frequent encounters with monsters, and the battle with Lichtein had dwindled their numbers

But Liz’s hips keepforward, and Hiro had his arms around them

「When we reach Fort Belk, we have to train you in horseback riding」

「No… I can’t ride them」

He trained day and night with the first Eh he was able to straddle a horse, he couldn’t even make it walk He didn’t improve any further from that point

Because wagons were constantly used on the battlefield, he didn’t think it would be inconvenient, but maybe he needed to consider it more proactively than that

There were two reasons for hiht

One, was that Tris’s face was extremely scary

The other, was that her soft chest occasionally touched him

The latter was the thornier problem for Hiro

He sat behind the first Eo as well, but because he was s in him

But the one before him now is female

Though he got the feeling the bulge in her chest left a bit to be desired, she would likely be known around the world as an unequaled beauty in the future

(Why is she so soft…? Is it because she’s an Imperial princess?)

As he had such ridiculous thoughts, the ever vigilant Tris approached with his horse

Of course, he doesn’t forget to glare at Hiro Typical Tris

「Princess, let us rest a while after going a little farther」

「Right I want to know the situation in Links, and Cerberus looks like he’s having a hard time, too… Plus I’d like to let the horses rest」

Cerberus is running quickly alongside the out loosely

「I will send about 2 men to take a look at the situation in Links We can afford to wait for the report before heading into town」

By all means, they should have reached Fort Belk by now

But because they continuously ran into unforeseen incidences, there is probably no har too careful

「Let’s rest after about another 2 sels (6 km) Is that okay with you, Hiro?」

「I wouldn’t ht now」

It’s not really that he’s tired His behind simply hurts

Co a hard time at all

Even though her behind looked soft, as he was about to coht so in the corner of his eyes and shouted

「Liz, stop!」

She responded immediately and her horse came to a sudden stop

Tris and the trailing soldiers were slow in noticing and they stopped after overpassing them

「What’s wrong? Did you bite your tongue or so?」

「That’s not it! There’s a kid over there being attacked!」

She responded with urgency in her voice

「Oh no! Where! By who?!」

Liz turned her head around in a panic

「Over there!」

After looking where Hiro was pointing, the tension from Liz released all at once

「That’s not a kid」

「Eh? They look huh…」

‘Was I mistaken?’ Hiro thinks as his rubs his eyes In his eyes, he saw a child-like so attacke

d by a bird that o times the size of vultures

「Tris, it’s a bit soon, but let’s take a break」

「Yes!」

Liz came down from the horse first and extended her hand towards Hiro

「That thing that looks like a bird is called a geldeoblin」

After he came doith the help of Liz’s hand, he tilted his head and looked at the goblin

Although there were also o, there weren’t any small ones like that

It had horns growing out of its head, was flesh colored, had big round eyes, and a child-like face that gave off a certain charm

It wore green clothes which was a one piece outer gar in its hand which it inging at the geldem

「We don’t have to help it? I don’t think I can just sit here and watch」

Even from afar, you could tell it was desperate

It’s doubtful that it can repel an attack from the sky which it can’t even reach

As he looked on worried, he began to feel like a father the moment his child stood up for the first time

But Liz shrugged her shoulders and shook her head

「If you get too close, you’ll get dragged in You don’t have to worry about it」

「Well if I’ed in」

「No, no If you watch for a bit, you’ll see」

After saying that, Liz sat cross legged on the ground

Tris was instructing soldiers to check the situation in town

Two horses kicked up a cloud of dust and ran across the sparse wasteland

Hiro atching the goblin on edge, but in an instant, his face turned pale
