Kraugel intended to put the Giant Snake into his Inventory, for a moment he felt a little confused after looking around...
This forest, isn't it too empty? Or is this forest normally like this... ah never mind.
He brought the snake back to Gumi, Gumi immediately turned her limp face into a happy one after seeing such a big snake being brought to be cut into pieces and cooked...
Kraugel didn't have any equipment, so he cut the meat with his Katana beforehand and then cleaned it with his daily magic of [Cleansing]...
Then he stack the cut meat on the wooden stick that he had strengthened with magic and put it on the bonfire he had made, while seasoning it, they talked about the Kingdom...
"Master doesn't know about the kingdoms around here?"
Gumi said while putting her mouth close to the 'unready' snake meat... Kraugel dragged her by lifting her by her shirt collar...
"Yes, what kingdoms are around here?"
"Mum and I visited near the northern border once, found the Beast Kingdom, Jurrazia. Then a little to the northern border there are many villages you know!"
"Villages?"
Village... If such a village without a kingdom can survive, then it's definitely not an ordinary village...
"That's what my mum says is Lamia Village, the women there are half snakes! It's unique!"
"Lamia huh? It's interesting, I think we'll go there one day, okay?"
"Okayy~"
They continued their meal, Kraugel picked up two skewers and gave them to Gumi and he ate one first...
Hmpmmph...
Unique too, the texture is not too tough but not soft either. The feeling, like eating crocodile meat... seems like Gumi likes it, well she is an eater of everything anyway
"Hmmp. Yes there is one more thing, when me and my mum went to little Far to the west, we saw a lot of things, the Country That Always Has Dark Clouds, my mum called it Jicstave."
"Then south? How about this region we want to go to? Besides Re-Kastrize"
"Hmmm if I'm not mistaken, there is a village in the forest with big trees! But I forgot to ask what village it is.. hehe"
"Never mind, finish your meal, we'll continue our way"
"Fumu"
They finished eating in less than 10 minutes, continued walking until nightfall, and continued repeating the same daily routine until the 2nd day in the afternoon...
They walked through the road on the slope of the mountain, there Kraugel felt a 'spark' of magic being fought below him...
"Wait a minute, gumi"
he went to the side of the slope and used his enhanced vision magic then...
"It's not fair! Master, I want to see it too!"
Finally Kraugel gave her the same sensory buff...
They saw, a horse-drawn carriage being attacked in one direction by some kind of big fat monster with pale green skin carrying a thick wooden stick as a weapon...
Interesting, if it's in Wonderland I'm sure this monster is some kind of Troll, its estimated level should be in the 20s, but it looks like the young man can overcome it easily...
The chariot was protected by a grey-haired teenager with silver chest and leg armour and white robes, carrying a unique hilted sword...
—The teenager's POV...
"Haha~! damn, there are so many of you!"
Tzzztt~
He darted at the Trolls, the blade of his sword radiating golden-coloured light, and he called his skill as...
"[ Holy Charge ]! "
Enveloping his blade with Holy Energy, making his attack just one slash away from splitting his body into two and so on until the 12 trolls were gone.
"Fyuuh~ all clear! Your Majesty"
I almost used that skill, it was my ace in the hole but Senior said to use it only in emergencies.
"Hoho thank you, Toare, as expected of a Battle Saint haha, ah can we continue the journey? I'm sure my father is waiting for me"
"Ah yes, let's go"
Toare got on the front of the carriage and got back on the horse...
—Back to the original POV
Battle Saint huh, interesting, that holy power, again gives me goosebumps. But "Your Highness"? Are there any prominent nobles in there?... and the direction they went, Re-Kastrize huh...
