Chapter 31

Hello everyone, it's Kent here. Right now, I'm sitting on my knees, receiving a lecture.

"You know, you really went too far this time!"

"Yes, I'm sorry, I'll reflect on it..."

When I pretended to be a zombie, Sakura井 started panicking and even cried. Of course, it's only natural that Koyama, who is paired with her, would be angry. And Yagi, who joined in, is really starting to get on my nerves.

"You know, even if you wanted to scare them, talking about being eaten by goblins and having your intestines pulled out is a bit much, isn't it?"

"Ah, but that's true, you know. They bit into my stomach and pulled out my intestines... Ugh, I can still remember it..."

"So, why are you still alive if your intestines were eaten?"

"Well, I can use light magic too."

"Whaaat!"

Oh, everyone's reaction is just perfect. I was waiting for this.

"Wait, is this for real? Seriously?"

"Yeah, it's real. I think the crystal ball didn't react because I can use both dark and light magic."

"Can you really use light magic? Seriously?"

"Hey, Yagi, can I borrow your knife for a moment?"

The old and new pair left their knives, and the other three left their swords as a disguise. I borrowed Yagi's knife, cut the tip of my left finger, and immediately healed it with a healing spell. Everyone seemed convinced.

"So, you're saying that the rarest one, who was left behind, was you?"

"Wow, those guys are really stupid. But, we did survive thanks to that."

As Yagi and Koyama said, I'll make Camilla, who abandoned me, regret it.

"Anyway, I'm going to report to the guild in Volzard, but Reinhardt and Basten will stay here, so it's fine."

"Can you really move using shadows?"

"Yagi... if I couldn't, how would I have gotten to the place where the orcs attacked us?"

"Ah, that's right."

"Reinhardt, Basten, take care of everyone, okay?"

"Understood."

"Leave it to us, Kent-sama."

I stepped out of the tent and disappeared into the shadows, arriving at the guild immediately. Donovan is working alone again tonight... He seems to be the strongest workaholic in Volzard.

"Good evening, Donovan."

"Huh... Kent, how's it going?"

I greeted him after emerging from the shadows.

"Yes, it's going well. I think we'll arrive here by tomorrow night."

"Good, that's quite fast."

"Actually, when we rescued them, we were attacked by a group of orcs, and everyone wants to get out of the forest as soon as possible."

"How many orcs were there?"

"About fourteen."

"Hmm... a bit large, but still within the normal range. We can't be too careful, though."

"Is there going to be a large outbreak of orcs?"

"I can't say for sure, but when a large outbreak occurs, the activity in the forest tends to increase for a while. We can't be too careful."

"I see... I'll keep an eye out for any changes while we're in the forest."

"Right, I'll leave it to you."

"Yes, I'll be back then."

"Alright..."

I disappeared into the shadows in front of Donovan, who had a slightly awkward expression. While I was at it, I decided to check on the situation in Lastock.

"Fred, I want to check on Lastock..."

"Understood..."

At this time, everyone should be in their dorms, so I first checked the boys' dorm. The hallway lights were on, but the rooms were dark. However, I could hear whispers from all over. It seems they're not sleeping.

"This
