Chapter 94: I made them this big and this many in anticipation of future traffic

Luke the village chief was nothing at all like I expected.

He had none of the arrogance and overbearingness that were common in nobles. He didnt even mind that I talked casually to him, too casually some would argue.

This gentle and kind lad didnt belong in this war-torn era. One has to wonder how exactly he grew up like this.

In terms of maturity, he certainly got Hazenathe youngest among usbeat by a large margin. But then again, maybe thats thanks to some kind of special lesson taught only to noble kids.

A dungeon!? Theres a dungeon nearby!?

Yes. Weve just discovered it recently.

Monster-infested areas and a dungeonwhy, I think we can call this place a haven for us adventurers already

We came to this place with the goal of exploring the monster-infested areas nearby, but we ended up discovering an even better treasure trove.

To make it even better, the dungeon was supposedly within the village. The village chief offered to take us there and we gladly accepted.

Along the way, I witnessed something bizarre.

Hey, is that an elf over there?

Yes. The elves have become part of our village.

You serious? Arent they supposed to have cut off all interactions with humans and moved to the ends of the world, or something?

I saw an elf casually talking with a human.

The elf acted so naturally that I initially noticed them for their head-turning beauty and not at all for being an elf.

Just so you know, dwarves have also become part of our village. They mostly stay underground though, so it might be harder to meet one.

Dwarves too!?

No, wait, what do you mean underground?

We walked some more and I noticed something else.

The village itself as well as all those who lived here were tidy and clean. As an adventurer, I have been to many cities, but never have I been to a place that was completely clean until now.

Usually, there would be human waste and trash lying on the roadside, but none of that was here.

From what I was told, everybody being clean could be attributed to two things: public bath houses, and each home having its own bath and lavatory.

When it gets discovered that my report was false, my head would likely roll to the ground, literally.

Still, I would have no regrets.

I had complete faith in Luke-sama, after all. I was certain that he would become an important figure in the future, surpassing even his father, Lord Albert.

There was a chance that he could even change this very country for the better.

Thinking about that, the risk I was taking was nothing.

Nevertheless, Dant-sama, we cant hide the existence of the village for much longer. Rumors about it has spread farther than the North. Before long, Raul-sama himself will likely set out to investigate the matter.

I realize that. And thats why were heading to the village right now.

I agreed with Bazara.

I and my elite guards were once again toward the village, but this time, it was partly to give thanks to Luke-sama who has greatly improved the food shortage crisis in the North. The other purpose of our visit was to relay a certain important piece of information to him.

Its been half a year since then, hasnt it I wonder, how much the village have grown since thenI cant help but feel excited and scared at the same time.

It has been quite a snowy winter, so perhaps it hasnt changed much.

Bazaras words made sense, but my gut feeling told me otherwise.

furthermore, it told me that I needed to brace myself.

When we were near the wasteland, we noticed something.

weve passed by quite a number of people, havent we?

Yes. The only place ahead in the village though

Then, its probably safe to assume that thats where theyre headed.

But all of them? Arent there too many?

The advent of spring probably meant a significant increase in immigrants.

Among those we passed by where groups who seemed to be merchants. Some even looked like adventurers.

I see. Because of the monster-infested areas nearby, the village would indeed make a wonderful base of operations for the adventurers.
