Day 231
In the morning I woke up and heard the situation from the Avenger.
Of course we are talking about the supporting characters he met in his [History of the Legendary Brave Man] - [Shining Path of the Brave Fighting]: [Witch of Mystic Flame] and the [Merciful Maiden]. What happened and who they are, in order to understand the situation.
To summarize, according to his story he, Rusty Iron Knight, Scarface, along together with other comrades, wandered through the Sternbild Kingdom, while exercising, they came upon a village on the border between the Sternbild Kingdom and the Kirika Empire.
They weren't thinking about going into it at first, but after hearing about the good reputation of this village from traveling merchants in the Kirika Empire, well-known for their creation of dairy products, Rusty Iron Knight said: "Let's go take a look ya?", "For souvenirs, you know, mainly for that, we're close by anyway." thus resulted in a small change of plans.
Thus, it was decided that they wanted to buy some souvenirs and quickly entered.
But on the way to the village, he saw some fearful looks from the locals, a large number of wounded, and the traces of destruction, but that's only what they saw from a distance.
Worried about the situation in the village, they left Scarface, as well as obviously recognizable representatives of non-human race team members outside of the village in order to reduce stress, and so only the humans entered the village.
In contrast to their expectation they passed unhindered to the village, but when they tried to find out what had happened, people in a hurry run as soon as they tried to approach them.
What is the reason for their failure, they were able to realize it after when looked at each other's faces.
Avenger and Rusty Iron Knight are not ordinary citizens. They're people belonging to the military, and presumed dead during the expedition in the great forest.
But if the fact that they had survived has come to light, that would cause a lot of problems. Thus when they head out, they had to hide their identity with [Mask of the angry demon].
The village saw Avenger and company wearing a mask (which had became a habit), the company is viewed as approaching armed men in masks, even if they haven't done anything to this village, this reaction is understandable.
When they realized that the masked men, from the standpoint of ordinary people will not provide the individual any sense of security, it was too late.
I unintentionally thought "Are you stupid?", but it was something that could be remedied ,it was decided next time they need to fix this. But lets get back to talking.
From a remote distance, the villagers looked out from the shadows, none dared to approach.
But this was not a problem.
But among them those that aimed at them with looks of fear and rage had a strong look as if they were a longtime nemesis.
In addition, in the shadow of buildings there were men hiding, armed with clubs and hoes. It's a physical ambush.
Even though it's something unusual for a countryside village, but I guess it happens. Avenger was confident about this.
If they continue this standoff, nothing will happen, and if they are attacked, that will only create more problem.
Avenger and company took off their masks and hid their weapons, thus showing they mean no harm to anyone.
All they wanted is to hear the situation from the local head of the village, sat down right there on the spot.
