Meanwhile, Exis and Quolkeh were in the remote village under the pretext of a vacation. They had initially planned to enjoy the tourney and took the outer eastern trade route from Helshper to Felskeilo, but…

Their first impression at the village entrance was Damn, that chick has some nerve!

The village wasn’t particularly big, but it was surrounded by a solid wall with gargoyle sentries situated at intervals atop the perimeter. There was also a bathhouse that looked to be made of cypress wood with separate areas for men and women. And to top it all off, a giant projector sat in a corner of the tavern.

“The hell is Cayna doin’ to this place?!” Exis raged, the memories from last time still fresh in his mind.

It wasn’t long before Roxilius noticed Exis and Quolkeh’s arrival and took them to see Luka. Later, the two turned to jelly as they slowly savored the wonders of the bathhouse.

Quite some time later, both adventurers still had yet to leave the village.

There was delicious food at the inn, and they could check on Felskeilo from the projector. The cost of living was also much cheaper than in the capital. Sakaiya’s village branch carried a large selection of products, and a mermaid would do their laundry for a reasonable price. The little hamlet lacked for nothing. Soon, the two adventurers started making themselves comfortable.

“Maybe I’ll retire here once my adventuring days are over,” Exis announced.

“Sign me up.”

Steam gently rose from Exis’s and Quolkeh’s armor as they collapsed on to one of the tavern tables. Neither resembled a seasoned adventurer in the least.

Moreover, no one criticized them or complained. It made sense that these two were as laid-back as Gude**** right now.

“Hrm…”

Nonetheless, there was one tiny objection. It came from Luka, the girl they had personally rescued.

““Hey, Luka.””

She sulked moodily and glared at Exis and Quolkeh, who were still collapsed on the table.

“What’s wrong?” asked Quolkeh. “You’ll waste that cute little face scowling like that.”

“When your greatest heroes are slumped over like fools in public, how can one not be disheartened?” came a voice—it was Roxine, who stood attentively by Luka’s side.

“Gweh?!”

Her contemptuous glare sent a chill down Exis’s spine as if he’d been struck by a glacier. He hastily sat up.

Thinking back on it, he recognized that shameless attitude that hurled abuse at her own master. When Exis first met this paid-content NPC back in his guild, her rapid-fire insults had filled him with terror.

“Heh-heh-heh. Look at how comfortable you are—beheading you would be such a simple task,” Roxine whispered, already right next to Quolkeh and stroking her neck.

“Eek?!”

Quolkeh paled. Any warm and fuzzy feelings from earlier were long gone now that this hostility had enveloped their corner of the tavern. Luka, meanwhile, had no idea what was going on.

“You… Are you here to warn us on Cayna’s orders?” Exis asked Roxine, reaching out a hand to help Quolkeh. Roxine swiftly dodged him and slipped into his blind spot.

“Unfortunately, we are forbidden from killing anyone in this village except for those who pose a threat.
