Rising Of The Shield Hero Web Novel ver

Exit by a kick

The next morning.
Raphtalia got up early today so we went to the barn together.

“Gua!”

Filo rushed up to us happily when we arrived.

“Oh my, her body is already grown up?”

Somehow…… compared to yesterday her head is bigger. It’s strange.

“Her body is almost balanced now.”
“If you say so.”

Her appearance is similar to the other Filolials we saw in the castle town and on the highway.
Her color now is white, with some light pink mixed in.
It’s a beautiful color.
That slave trader doing quite a good job.

“Are you hungry today?”
“Gua?”

Filo chirps while tilting her neck.
Yup. It seems the growing phase is over.
Biki……
A strange sound is echoing.
Is this ok?
We finish breakfast and think of our plans. Meanwhile.

“Gua……”

Filo stares at the wooden carts that enter the village enviously.

“So you want to pull one too?”
“I guess so.”
“How’re you doing Hero of the Shield-sama”

The villager sees me pointing at the cart and comes chat with Raphtalia.
“Ah because my Filolial wanted to pull a cart, I’m wondering what to do.”
“Ma….. It’s second nature to Filolials to pull carts.”

The man nods as if convinced and starts inspecting Filo.

“Right now the village is in the middle of reconstruction so we have insufficient manpower. Hero-sama, can you help with distributing supplies in exchange a cart?”
“Hm……”

That’s not a bad idea. After all I want to take advantage of the fact that I have a demon capable of such.
I could also do other activities as the cart is being pulled.

“What do you need?”
“I cut lumber in the nearby forest; can you bring it to the village for me?”
“Forest huh……”

That reminds me, I didn't check out that forest yet.

“It’ll take a while to return.”
“Eh”
“Understood. Let’s talk.”

On the goodwill of the villagers, one cart was given to me.
Everything from the wheel to the stands were made of wood. It can’t be helped that it’s low quality, because it’s free.
It’s slightly old.

“Gua♪”

After the cart was prepared, Filo pulls it happily.
The villagers prepare reins for the carriage, but it’s only for looks.

“Yosh! Let’s get to the forest today!”
“Alright!”
“Gua---!”

Filo cheerfully pulls the cart in the direction I point.
Goton Goton!
So relaxing……
Goton Goton Goton! Garagaragaragaragara!
Wheels turn noisily as the scenery passes at high speeds.
“Faster! Faster! Slow down!”
“Gua……”

After slowing down Filo walks with a Tokotoko sound while seeming dissatisfied.

“Ugh…… I feel sick.”

Raphtalia seems to have motion sickness and is lying down in the cart.

“Are you okay?”
“Eeh……Don’t sway so much...”
“I see, Raphtalia you have motion sickness?”
“It seems so. Are you okay Naofumi-Sama?’
“I’m fine unless I get drunk...”

It seems for me liquor is related to motion sickness. I remember back in grade school, during a field trip on the bus I was reading manga and light novels while the person next to me got sick, in the end I had to ask for a seating change.
Additionally, I remember on a family trip to meet relatives on boat, and I was playing games while my family got seasickness .
