Tensei Kenja no Isekai Raifu ~Daini no Shokugyo wo Ete, Sekai Saikyou ni Narimashita~ Chapter 46

Apparently, They Were Famous Bandits

“I killed all of them.”

“I killed all of them.”

I reported to Tina.

“No way! But that was so fast!?”

“It’s true. I used the slimes to freeze all of them.”

“…Still, it’s hard to believe. It’s possible that they may be wanted. So I would like to go and confirm…”

That was true. While I could watch the scene through the slimes and use magic to defeat them, Tina had been here talking to me. It would be very odd from her perspective.

But then again, what if I hadn’t really killed all of them and we were attacked?

“Alright, what if I brought the ones I killed over here?”

“Huh? You can do that!?”

“Well, it will be the tamed monsters who will be doing it, so I’ll have to ask them…”

So saying, I activated Monster Mutual Understanding and contacted the Proud Wolf.

‘Proud Wolf. Can you and the slimes carry the bodies back?’

‘Uh…if we can drag them. Yes!’

The Proud Wolf said as he looked at some rope that hung on the side of the cottage.

‘I don’t mind. Do it.’

‘Understood! Will you help me, slimes?’

‘Okay!’

‘Okay!’

And with that, the slimes bound up the frozen bandits with rope and then held the other ends as they rode on the Proud Wolf.

‘Alright, here we go!’

The Proud Wolf declared before he started running.

He was dragging the weight of four humans, but his speed seemed to be the same as usual.

…I suppose the Proud Wolf really was just lacking in confidence, but actually quite powerful.

As I thought about this, the Proud Wolf got closer and closer.

“A Proud Wolf with slimes on his back will appear soon. They are monsters that I tamed, so don’t attack them.”

“Alright.”

“Understood.”

Not a minute passed after that when the Proud Wolf arrived.

Slimes rode on his back, and they were holding onto ropes which had bandits on the other end. They were still frozen solid.

Tina and Lisa saw one of them…and raised their voices.

“Is that…Gelios!?”

“What!? Is it really him!? …It is!!”

…Uh, they were really overreacting.

Surely they weren’t acquaintances?

“Do you know him?”

“That’s not the point! Have you never heard of Gelios!?”

“That’s not the point! Have you never heard of Gelios!?”

“You do know that he is the most famous bandit in this area!?”

…I see.

But, no, I had never heard the name Gelios before.

“So, what kind of bandit was he?”

“He’s a bandit that has robbed and murdered countless people. But has evaded capture for so long due to his strength! I’m pretty sure that the price on his head was insane!”

“Yes, I believe it was around 2,500,000 cicols. The others aren’t as famous as Gelios, but they are all dangerous and well-known too! …Yuji. How did you kill them all!?”

“So, Rodis was connected with such men, huh? Yuji, this would have been a disaster if you weren’t here.”

2,500,000 cicols.

If I remember correctly, it cost me 150,000 to take the guild test, and that had been considered a lot of money. So 2,500,000 should be a great amount for a reward.

“So, I should take this to the guild?”

I said while pointing to the frozen bandits.

Their HP was at 0, so we could always just leave them here. But we were probably obligated to bring them back since they were wanted men.

As I thought about this, Tina told me something useful.

“You can just use a magic tool to confirm the kill, so you don’t have to carry them. The bigger issue is what we should do now.”

“Now?”

“Yes. With Rodis gone, our fighting force may not be enough to finish the quest…unless… Yuji, could you act as a scout and fight at the same time?”

I see. So that’s what she meant.
