Noon.
Hulim and Tzarkin stopped to rest by a stream.
"... ...Charkin, are you really A-level?"
Hulim asked her own question.
"ah."
Charkin did not deny it, but nodded while chewing on the dried meat.
"Do you have a name?"
"Name?"
Tsharkin stopped chewing the dried meat.
“… …there really is such a thing.”
"What is it?"
Hulim asked curiously.
"Hmm...that's it."
Tsarkin picked up his warhammer.
“???”
Hulim was puzzled.
"This war hammer?"
"Yes, that's right, it's the Warhammer."
"?"
"So... my name is 'Warhammer'!"
“… …”
So that’s it, it really is Warhammer!
It’s so simple and clear!
"Then why did Tsarkin open a blacksmith shop in Langard?"
"Hmph~, that's an interesting question. My main job is a blacksmith. If I don't open a blacksmith shop, what else would I do? Would I beg for food like other adventurers?"
"... Then why is your nickname not Hammer, but War Hammer? It sounds like a name for someone who's into combat, right?"
“Who said that?!”
Tsarkin raised his war hammer and pounded it on the ground.
"Who told you that a war hammer can't forge iron?"
“Huh???”
Hulim looked at the ferocious hammer with a pointed end in Chalkin's hand in surprise.
"That... can be used for blacksmithing?!?"
"Of course you can. Don't be fooled by its appearance, its main job is blacksmithing! Just like me, hammering people is just a side job."
“… …”
Is it normal for someone to make a forging hammer like this...
"Come to think of it... If Chalkin is A-rank, then is Irus also A-rank?"
"Um???"
Tzarkin looked at Hulim in surprise.
"you do not know?"
"? What do I know?"
"She didn't tell you?"
"What? Tell me what?"
"Is that so..."
Chalkin touched his chin, lowered his head and thought, without answering Hulim's question.
"Well, Tsarkin, what exactly are you talking about?"
Tzarkin raised his head and looked at Hulim.
shook his head.
"Since she didn't tell you, I can't tell you. You should ask her yourself about this kind of thing, right?"
“???”
No, what are you talking about?
However, no matter how Hulim asked, Chalkin avoided the question.
Hulim had no choice but to give up temporarily.
But the seeds of doubt were planted in my heart.
... ...
... ...
"The Milnabis Mountains are ahead."
After crossing a ridge, Tsarkin stopped.
Hulim looked ahead and could see a stretch of snow-capped mountains rising at the end of her sight.
After a long journey, the two finally approached their destination.
"The road ahead won't be as smooth as before. Hulim, you have to be careful."
"I will."
"Okay, let's move on then."
The two men rode on the shield-horned beasts and continued to move towards the mountains.
As the Milnabis Mountains became clearer and clearer in view, various ancient ruins began to appear along the road.
Most of these ruins are in ruins, with only walls and foundations remaining. One can vaguely see the former glory and power of civilization in past eras, but it is a pity that they have all been gone with the wind.
Today, these ruins not only stand here silently, testifying to the past to those who come and go, but also provide a good habitat for certain creatures...
"roar--!"
A B-level monster, the Fortress Demon Spider, suddenly jumped out from the nearby ruins and pounced towards Hulim and Chalkin. Its body leaped high, forming a shadow that completely covered the area where the two were.
“It’s endless.”
Tsarkin complained, swinging the hammer in his hand.
boom--!!!
After a loud bang, the Fortress Demon Spider's body flew back and fell into the ruins, and there was no movement anymore.
Because the body above the abdomen of the demon spider has been completely shattered.
"Have we accidentally entered its territory?"
"Yeah," Tzarkin nodded, putting his warhammer away again. "This kind of thing is hard to avoid. Milnabis is full of high-level monsters, and each territory is very large. It's impossible not to break in."
"Keep going. These monsters are nothing. The real trouble lies with something else. They are the true masters of Milnabis..."
"Something else?"
Hulim was curious.
"Don't worry, you'll see them soon. Or rather... after a while, you'll be fed up with them."
"?"
What on earth is this...
As Tsarkin said, Hulim soon encountered the real troublemakers.
