Chapter 98 – The Road to King’s Landing, Again – With the Three Girls

As was the case on the outward journey, we could see the changes in the desert in many places on the return journey as well.

First up is the Baska Wilderness, where the number of bandits has dropped significantly as the number of players has increased.

The ones I met on the move were close to the remnants……

“Wait, wait, wait, wait! Geez, ha, ha, ……! What’s with the big, stupid horse?”

“You can’t do this on foot, head!”

I’m not going to be able to catch up in any way, so I go through.

They are wild, savage, and stinky, and you don’t want to spend a lot of time with them.

“Oh, sir! Are you sure you want to be left alone, senior Hind!”

“Oh, no, no, no! Let’s just go on with it!”

Cinerea-chan, who was in the back of the three-seater, turned and shouted at me, but I returned the shout, not caring.

If you hand the bandits over to the city’s security organization, you’ll receive a reward, but it’s a lot of work.

“Let’s hurry along the road as much as possible and just keep to the important points in each place! I thought you said you wanted to get there tonight!”

“Yes! Shi-chan says that it’s better to build a home early and then start working on it, so you won’t waste any experience in anything! Hey, Shi-chan! …… is asleep!”

Licorice was astonished.

The person who rushed the two girls to the capital was sleeping.

Still, it was quite impressive that I didn’t wake up even though everyone around me was talking so loudly.

“Hind, it’s time to go to the city of Baska!”

“We’ll get there sooner if we don’t have to deal with those bandits! We’re going through!”

It would be a good idea to have the three of them know where the horses were resting, and at least the main facilities of the city.

“Oh my God! You just looked at me and laughed, you camel!”

“It’s bigger and scarier than I imagined……”

“I feel some sympathy for this face. I think we’ll get along.”

A three-way reaction at the Camel Market.

I told the three of them that they could buy a camel and keep pace with me.

“””We don’t have enough money.”””

This proposal was rejected for that simple reason.

It was decided that we would continue to carpool on Gradtark.

The next suspension bridge, though, is where we get off the horses and travel in single file.

“Oh, my God! It’s so high! If I fall, I’ll die!”

“Rico! Don’t shake it too much. ……!”

“Senior, I’m tired of walking, please give me a piggyback ride. I don’t mind if you carry me.”

“Hind…… spoil her too much and I’ll drop you both off a bridge, okay?”

“No, no, no, no! Siesta, you haven’t walked far enough to get tired yet! Come on, get a grip!”

“Hey.”

It was a lively march with the bridge swinging in the air.

After that, we entered the desert, where the hot wind was blowing.

The three of us put on our cloaks and got back on the Gradturk for the journey.

“It’s so hot, it’s so hot. …… I’m going to get exhausted. …… It’s a game. ……”

“Because he’s so excited to be alone. ……”

“Gudeh”

Two out of the three of us were limping from the heat.

However, it is not as uncomfortable as it is in real life, so you will get used to it.

We’ll only do a few battles to get them used to the desert monsters, and the rest of the time, we’ll let the horses’ speed take over and shake them off as they go.

From what I saw in those few battles, the three of them were more sophisticated in their coordination than before, so they didn’t seem to need our help as much.

This is how we crossed the Yavirga Desert, the widest field to the royal capital, and arrived at the oasis city of Maiya.

“Oh, I’m coming back to life! What, is there a charge for this water?”

“Rico, ……. Oh, I’m sorry, I’ll pay for her drink now, too. …… Here you go.”

“Gok gok gok …… pu hee.”

“Hey, hey, hey! You have to pay first!”

While drawing water from the oasis into a bucket for the horses, Ymir saw the three of us and approached me.

We’re used to it, so we’ve already paid for it.

“I feel like I’m leading a field trip.”

“Well, that’s good. It’s good to be on the side of taking care of people once in a while.”

“Mm. Usually I’m just taken care of one way or the other by you!”

“I don’t understand why you’re so smug about it.”

After resting at the oasis, we had about 30% of the way to go.

If you can defeat the field boss “Venom Scorpion” in the Rukiya Desert, the royal capital Waja is right in front of you.

After a quick run through with Gradtark, we were finally in a position to see the royal capital.

Immediately after, a large scorpion came flying out of the sand with great force.

Ymir and I let the three of them stand in front of us and wait slightly behind.

“Well, let’s see what you guys can do about it! We’re basically staying out of this one!”

“I’ll keep the party going, and I’ll come in to help you if you’re in danger. Hang in there.”

“Yes, I’ll do my best!”

“I’m on it.

“Okay. I’ll do it in moderation.”

Field bosses have no experience and no drop items.

Therefore, there will be no inconvenience if non-combat members are in the party.

This field boss was defeated by the five of us when we were there, but Licorice and the others were of a higher level than we were at the time.

From what I saw in the previous battle, they should be able to defeat it with a reasonable amount of time.

A large scorpion approached the three of them, clacking its shears.

“Come on, guys, let’s go!”

The knight, Licorice, took out her large shield and guarded the shears.

The arrows that Sineria shot flew towards the scorpion one after another.

Seeing that the arrows were blocked by the hard shell, Siesta-chan used “Light Enchantment”.

This skill is a common skill that can be learned by all types of priests, so even the balanced Siesta-chan can use it.

Cinerea-chan’s arrows are imbued with the power of light magic, and the arrows begin to pierce the body of the “Venom Scorpion”.

As it was, Licorice continued to stop the scorpion by herself, while the two in the rear guard dealt solid damage.

Among the three of them, it was mainly the archer, Saineria-chan, who was giving the orders.

“Rico, the enemy is gathering strength! Something big might be coming! Shi, get ready to heal Rico!”

“All right, Rhino!”

“I’m already on it. Rico, be careful with that suspicious tail that looks poisonous no matter how you look at it.”

“Huh? –Whoa!”

The scorpion’s tail was closing in on Licorice, who was using a series of “provocation” skills to gather hate.

Siesta-chan’s leisurely warning that she was not in the middle of a battle may have been in time, but she was able to shield herself in the nick of time.

She countered with a short sword in her right hand and hit the scorpion with it.

“Sai-chan, Shi-chan, decide!”

She continued to use the defensive knight’s skill “Shield Bash” and hit him hard with the large shield she held.

This will cause the Venom Scorpion to take a stun motion and not move from its spot.

“Nice, Rico! Shi!

“Aye.”

She took advantage of the stun time to wait a little while for Siesta-chan’s chanting, and at the same time released the “Arrow Rain” and the light attribute attack magic “Heaven’s Ray” at the same time.

The large scorpion, which has high physical defense and low magic resistance as it looks, was stopped by the large number of arrows that were raining down on it, and all the rays of light that Siesta-chan released hit it directly.

He was burned by the light and disappeared from the scene.

“Well done! Excellent coordination! Hey, Hind!”

“Really, if the PvP tournament had been a three-player event, we’d have done better.”

In response to our compliments, Licorice and Sineria showed a gesture of embarrassment.

I have to say, I’m impressed with Siesta-chan, who doesn’t change her expression too much, and just keeps coming at me for more praise.

Thus, Ymir and I, with the three of them, successfully made it back to the royal capital Waja in one night.
