... live free!

But why couldn't we have discovered more than a thousand goblins before? And I thought about that. The orcs were the cause, but I think the Goblin settlement was formed at that time.

“But at that scale, why didn't you find it when you investigated the increase in the number of goblins?”

"It's probably... but it's possible that the orcs appeared in the Goblin Village and were scattered, or that they haven't settled there yet."

"... how can you say that?"

"... As you can see from the investigation report, there were reports of several broken houses in the area where the Goblin settlement was found. However, there were few sightings of the surrounding Goblins and they could not be sure that they were using it, so it was not confirmed as a settlement.”

"... I see."

"When I investigated, you weren't there much..." Could it be that the Goblins gathered to form a village?

"An urgent request has been sent and we are going to the crusade tomorrow."

Well, it's an urgent request, so I'll leave tomorrow... Can I join in on the offer? I decided to ask Elena.

“By the way, what are the conditions for participation in the request?”

"There is no rank limit on the condition that a goblin group can fight, but are you willing to participate?"

"Well, if you meet the conditions, I'm going to do it..."

"I don't think there's a problem with Lena, but it would be a very dangerous request." Are you sure you want to take it? "

Yes.

I want to take it, too.

Then Yua said something like that.

"Huh? Is that you...?"

Elena seemed surprised and a little worried. Perhaps you're worried if I can accept your request because I have something to do with you before. Well, I'm sure you can do some goblin group combat, but it depends on how much Elena expects.

"I think it's okay, right?" I've been fighting five or more goblins lately, and I've raised my skill enough not to have any problems. "

"Well then, I have to accept it, but it would be a very dangerous request." Are you sure? "

Yes, yes!

"... Ok, I will accept Yua's request to participate. However, this time it is likely that you will be assigned to a location with relatively few fights due to the large number of goblins involved. In other words, you and Lena may not be able to act together, but are you sure?”

Yes, yes.

“Okay, I'll allow you to join the request. Please come to the guild to explain the details in the meeting room around noon.”

Got it.

That said, we left the guild behind.
