Chapter 120

It didn’t mean that he received a shock after seeing my face, right?

It was rude either way, though…

"Chief!"

The villagers rushed to the chief and supported his body.

"I’m fine."

The chief looked at me again.

"Miss, are you an adventurer?"

"I am."

"I see."

The chief thoroughly looked at me and sighed.

"What? If you have something to say, just spit it out already."

His attitude was really irritating me.

Just sighing after looking at my face.

"You seem to be acting a bit strange. Did something happen?"

Shia asked the chief.

"It’s not something we could ask the students to do."

"You can’t know that if you don’t tell us what it is."

Seeing the chief’s attitude, Marcus’s normal tone returned.

"Chief, isn’t it okay to tell them at least?"

One of the men supporting chief’s body said.

"But, asking the students is……"

"As he said, you won’t know until you tell us."

I agreed with Marcus and Cattleya.

The chief was still hesitating and looked at the people around him.

"I guess you’re right. Would you at least listen to my request?"

It was decided that we would discuss it in the chief’s house.

Judging by how the villagers and the chief were acting, something that needed the help of an adventurer had happened, so they wanted to speak to one, but when they saw that I was the adventurer, they all received a shock, didn’t they?

Wasn’t this the moment when they should look at my guild card or ask me how strong I was?

Weren’t they told that they shouldn’t judge a person by their appearance?

Almost everyone judged others by appearance, huh?

I did it too, so I couldn’t really complain.

When we arrived at his house, the chief started to talk with a dark expression.

"Goblins have appeared close to the village."

"Goblins?"

I was guessing some monsters had appeared, but it was just goblins?

"Normally, the goblins stay deep inside the forest and don’t appear around here."

"And now the goblins appeared close to the village?"

"Yes. You see, silkworms live between the village and the goblins. When the goblins try to come to the village, they become silkworm food. The silkworms keep us safe."

"And yet the goblins have appeared?"

"Yes. That’s why we wanted to ask an adventurer to kill those goblins for us. We knew that an adventurer would escort the students during their practice training, after all. I know that I’m asking for too much, but if we can’t enter the forest safely, it’s all over for our village."
