It's been almost two days since then.
We were already many kiloters from the capital, our trip was going very smoothly. On the way, we only encountered a few goblins, Slis, Kobolds, and small monsters with hard shells called the Silver Armadillo.
They were all weak monsters, so they were all easily killed by Lisandra and her friends.
I tried to interfere, but they said it would be for their training since at school they don't have much opportunity to do sothing like that.
Speaking of which, all the girls were mages, only Ciaphia used a sword. I told them that if they were to set up a group it would be a little unbalanced, but what they replied was.
"Don't worry, we're not planning on setting up a group right now."
But even so, I told them to train another way to fight besides just using magic, or maybe look for other people to put in their group. They replied that they would think about it in the future.
"That's good." Since we'd only encountered weak monsters, I wouldn't have to worry about helping them, I just watched them during their battles.
They were very good. Lisandra had leveled up her magic, so her attacks were much more powerful than before, which made quite proud.
The other two sisters were also quite competent, they used their magic masterfully even though they didn't have much power.
Sara, Rose, Rieli, Dala, and Clachel were quite in awe of the four girls doing their best to kill monsters.
"Okay, but now it's getting dark, let's set up camp again." The carriage was riding along the main road and I was riding on the shoulder of the road beside the carriage.
The road was wide enough for two big carriages to pass, so I didn't stay on the other side of the road because we occasionally run into other carriages that were heading towards the capital.
Most were carriages full of soldiers, not rchants' carriages.
"Okay, I'll do it right away," Dala said as she maneuvered the carriage off the road and onto an open field. It was an open space covered by a large amount of grass.
There were also so very beautiful flowers around here. And so randomly scattered trees were also on the right side of the road where we were going to set up camp.
And we were also very lucky, as there was a lake on the other side of the road. There wasn't a forest around here, but there were lots of trees scattered around the lake
If I looked closely, it could be compared to a forest, but a very small forest.
"Maybe there are so animals around here too." I looked at that lake and the "Little Forest" around it.
The lake was right beside the road, so I took the horses out of the carriage and took them there to water them.
As we didn't have space to supply water, we had to stop several tis at lakes to water the horses.
I think I'm very lucky that there are so many lakes and rivers all along the way. But of course, we would have to stop at a village at so point, as the closer we get to my village, the more abundant the forests beco and the less abundant the quantity of lakes and rivers becos.
After watering the horses, I took them to the side where we were going to camp and let them start the grass there. The grass was pretty tall as this is not a garden so it would make for good food.
"Right, now keep setting up camp as I'm going to get so food," I told the girls.
Sara and the maids were setting up camp. Lisandra, Ciaphia, Eli, Taciane, Rose, and Rieli continued inside the carriage, sitting and talking together while waiting for the other three to arrange everything.
'Shouldn't they help a little?'
"I understood, but be careful. If you encounter any dangerous monsters, flee imdiately." It was Sara who answered as she spread a blanket on the floor to serve as a seat and bed for everyone.
"Right."
"Also bring so wood to make a fire."
"I'll do it, I'll be back soon." Before leaving, I went to the carriage: "Listen, Lisandra. I'll leave this camp under your responsibility for a while, you and your friends should be able to keep them all safe."
When they heard this, Lisandra and her friends' eyes sparkled.
"Really? Do you trust us so much?" Taciane said happily.
"It's not that, I just don't have another option."
"Ah understood." At my words, Taciane's shoulders slumped in dismay.
"But I count on you to do this. But if a very dangerous monster appears, which I find very difficult to happen, yell for and I'll co here right away." I seriously looked at the girls.
Rieli and Rose remained silent, but the other four girls nodded with a smile. So I said goodbye to them and went towards the lake again to check out that little forest.
####
Arriving at the lake, I noticed that around already had so eyes on . nacing looks coming from within the small forest, I looked directly at the trees.
Crack~~
With the sound of sothing breaking, the trees stirred as if a strong wind had hit them.
"It looks like I'm not being well received." I removed the sword from my waist and walked into the small forest. There weren't that many trees, so I was able to move around well.
As soon as I started walking through the trees, I noticed a look coming from above, through the leaves of the trees.
"You better get out of there." With just a movent of my hand, a thorn made of pure iron sprouted from the ground and then flew at high speed towards the leaves.
Gyaaaa~~
With a slightly awkward scream, sothing fell from above the trees and hit the ground with a loud sound *BOOM*
"Then that's it." I approached what had fallen and saw an animal that I hadn't seen in a long ti. How long ago did these things appear again? Isn't that a little dangerous?
I couldn't help but sigh as I looked at that monster lying in front of with a big piece of iron through its head.
A child-sized monster with green skin and a big tail that grew out of its ass. He also had big fangs like a wolf.
"What is a demon doing in a place like this? There's no more around here, is there?" I started to look around and I didn't notice any more presence in the trees, there seems to be no more of them around here.
I approached that monster and started to analyze it.
Unlike any demon, he didn't have much magic power, he looked much weaker than normal.
"He ca out of a dungeon... But where is this dungeon?" I didn't have the ti to look for it, but I'll rember this place very well.
So I left that demon's body there and went looking for food. It was very easy to find food, the number of wild monsters here was quite high. A group of three sleeping boars was killed with a simple spell.
Three iron thorns as before flew and pierced their heads with just one movent. I didn't need to work very hard.
I also found a couple of wolves with a cub, but as soon as they realized I wouldn't harm their cub, they ran away and ignored .
"I think three boars is enough." The three were quite large and could feed us for days, so I caught the three boars with my bare hands.
I held two wild boars by the hooves with one hand and caught the third with the other hand. I had them by the paws and I was dragging them, they were light as a feather, but I didn't want to get blood on my clothes by carrying these things any other way.
In a short ti, I made it to the camp.
I left out the fact that I found a demon in the forest, as it could end up scaring the girls. So I just told them about the wolves I had found and they said "That's cute" while smiling.
None of them questioned the fact that I was carrying three wild boars, that's good. They also didn't ask how I killed them so perfectly with just a hole in their heads.
Lisandra just said, "I didn't know it was possible to do this with fire magic." But she didn't question too much about it. And I thank her, it would be a little difficult to explain how I did it.
So with my help, Sara drained the boars' blood and then dismantled them all, taking only the at. Wild boar at didn't sll very pleasant, but it was still tasty when prepared in the right way.
I left this job to Sara.
Like so pans she had brought, she cooked the at using the fire she made from the wood I had brought with . I did not say? I was carrying them under my arm.
She placed a piece of stone on top of the fire and placed the pan on top of the stone as placing the pot directly on the fire would damage it.
After that, our dinner was very pleasant and we got ready for bed.
I couldn't help but think about that demon during my guard.
