Chapter 24 Little Goblin Slayer to the rescue. (2/2)

The person shouted while dropping down sooblin in question and decided to follow the advice To her surprise a small mana stone was there, if she could sell it she could probably earn a few ser The girl was already scared as it was, she started clie wasn’t that steep so she ed to do it in a couple of , strength left her body due to having to run in a panic this far

“You okay there? Helci, right?”

She turned her head to the person that rescued her This was apparently someone that knew her but she was unsure fro hu the rope up and placing it into a bag of holding

The wind moved his hood around and she could finally make out his face This was indeed someone that she knew, someone that lived at the inn that she worked at Most people thought he was a weirdo, he always stayed locked in his room and would only leave to eat and rarely went outside

The innkeeper told her to not bother him as he could be some kind of a culthis face and never talked to anyone or ht have a ic class A ritualist or a warlock was a person that made a pact with a dehtly concerned

“A-ah yes… I’er was strapped to her side She backed off a little bit as she was unsure about this person’sothers for no reason, this person was also someone she didn’t know that well Thisa distance was probably the correct thing to do now

“See, there are already so”

The human in the robe pointed into the distance frooblins started to appear, probably there to avenge their slain friends that were butchered

“We should leave if an evolved variant appears it won’t be this easy”

The youth said while turning his back to her She was still a bit on the fence about following this unknown person He was still soerated Behind her she could hear the maddened shouts of the monsters that had found their et out of there

“Ah, wait for !”

She ran after the human boy that was quite fast on his feet She was so but even then she couldn’t catch up to hi for theoblins would probably not chase them any further than this, so she felt relieved

She leaned over while panting, her hands to her knees She made it out alive in one piece She didn’t expect these ed to stab the creature in the shoulder it didn’t do e This was a total failure on her part and she knew it

After resting a bit she looked up, the hu at her She felt weird, this person had helped her but she had a hard tiratitude Before she could open her ? Have you never fought a goblin before? What level are you?”

“If I wasn't close by you would have been getting eaten at this …”

The hu her He crossed his ars that she had done wrong He even started questioning her choice of equip scolded by one of the older nuns froer than her, which

“If you weren’t close by? I had everything under control!”

She puffed up her cheeks along with her chest, her long eyebrows angling inwards She wasan adventurer didn’t work out as intended and now she was getting lectured by soician but he was still a child in her eyes

“That’s right, I was just luring them into a trap, you idiot!”

“Then you appeared and ruined my plan, who needed your help, I was fine on my own!”

Sheloudly The youth that was repri while astonishment covered his face He watched as Helci stubbornly turned her head to the side while biting her lower lip While trying to act tough and not facing the person that rescued her she started walking She could slightly see the youth’s face contorting into odd shapes, he was probably baffled by her reaction whichfor her wrongdoings and even worse at thanking people that had helped her The two didn’t talk much after her outburst, they kept a distance of a few ize but each tination as if he was looking down on her for failing They finally separated at the city entrance and both went their oay

There was a tiny probleotten that the youth that she didn’t know the na at She was also a worker that lived there so they almost immediately bumped back into each other

She kept her distance as he was eating his supper Both had spentin the forest so it was already close to seven The world here also had a 24 hour day cycle but there were thirteen months on the calendar instead of twelve

Helci felt a bit bad about not having thanked hiht it to her chest while clutching it, she had es from the pantry Her plan unfolded as she used the busy hours to sneak over to the robed stranger She placed the nicely preparedfast as she talked

“H-here, I found this just lying there, thought you ht want one”

The youth looked at the item presented to hiirl that was presenting it to him Another bout of uncoirl to have another outburst

“Just take it already, what are you taking so long, not like I brought it over to thank you for helping ! idiot”

She sla shake She then stormed off back into the kitchen, soave the half-gno at the sausage that was given to hie was quite surprised He didn’t think these types of people existed in real life He grabbed the sausage and gave it a taste, he couldn’t just waste good food In the back of his irl acted It was quite similar to how some popular characters in various works of fiction conducted the to sneak a peek froift that she prepared

He also needed to talk to the girl later, she was obviously unfit to wander into those dangerous woods As an adult, it was hard to not worry about someone that acted this ain but after she had cooled off as it seehtly irritated But this would have to wait for now as he had a really big sausage to devour now
