People gathered in front of the rock.

They were embarrassed or cursed at the rocks blocking the road.

“What the hell is this!”

“what is this. Since when have you been here?”

The rock, the size of a two-story house, was mysteriously blocking the middle of the road.

If you want to go, you can go, but it seemed difficult for the wagon to go.

And this is something that wasn’t even in the original story.

That means someone pushed this rock here, or removed it from where it was.

“I can’t use the wagon.”

got off the wagon

I couldn’t move by carriage, so I didn’t want to delay the time just to be a little more comfortable.

“But there’s something strange about that rock.”

I got off the wagon and inspected the rock.

It was an ordinary rock.

A very large and hard rock with dirt and stone debris flowing down it.

But strangely, the rock felt strange.

Rocks are inanimate objects.

“No matter how you look at it, it looks alive.”

“What do you mean? The rock is alive.”

“Are you Raymond?”

Hearing my murmurs, Mahol and Reina looked at me curiously.

It is very strange to say that a rock is alive.

However, Alice did not take my words lightly.

I narrowed my eyebrows at my words and approached the rock to examine it closely.

‘There is nothing that feels different.’

After following her through the rocks, I couldn’t find anything out of the ordinary.

Because it was the rock itself.

I even looked at it using an aura, but there was still nothing wrong with the rock.

But why is it so awkward?

It’s like brushing your teeth and not rinsing with water.

[The ‘Unknown God’ is looking at you.]

[‘The Unknown God’ looks at you and frowns.]

[‘Unknown God’ makes a complicated expression.]

And even if it was because of the god who had been talking to me earlier, I could tell that something was wrong.

What is it, what am I missing?

“young master.”

At that time, Alice took a step back from the rock and spoke with a hardened face.

Looking back at her, her complexion had darkened.

“It is dangerous.”

“what?”

It’s all risky.

Impressed by her words, he backed away like her.

She’s not one to say things like that without meaning.

“Among the monsters, there are monsters that only live in the desert.”

And her next words sparked my mind.

why did you forget that

“Mahol. Stay far back with Reina. Alice, you too.”

Sending the party as far as possible, he pulled out the sword given to him by the crown prince.

I was worried because it was a decorative sword, but it’s better than nothing.

‘Among the monsters, there are monsters that become like inanimate objects when they sleep.’

A monster that only lives in the desert.

Rapid climate change and scarcity of food and water.

There was a monster whose body was made to live in an environment where everything was lacking.

When you’re hungry, or more precisely, when you’re low on energy, you move around and hunt.

A monster that normally sleeps as if it were dead by controlling its breathing and all body functions.

“Golem.”

A monster whose entire body is made of rocks and moves with magic stones.

Originally, it was like a guardian made to protect wizards.

There were also naturally-created golems.

Eat creatures and replace mana with them.

And the Golem, the Stone Golem, was a rare and powerful monster that could only be found in the desert.

“Why is the golem here… .”

But I couldn’t believe that the golem was here.

I wondered if it was the magician’s work, but I looked it up.

There was no sentence saying that it belonged to a wizard.

That means the northern monsters are right.

How could a northern monster be here?

I was embarrassed, and I felt embarrassed that something had happened.

Could it be that the main character did something? I was worried too.

I shook my head and shook the thought away.

The main character had to wait at least half a year before he could move.

‘The reason I found out about Al was because I met William and threatened him.’

The reason why William teamed up with Mahol was the main character.

The main character threatens to go to William and give out information if he doesn’t want to die.

William had to tell him the top-secret information he had with tears in his eyes.

And among them, there was something about Reid’s egg, and the main character who learned about it moved.

“Isn’t this what I need to tell the lord?”

“What is this inconveniently!”

It seems people haven’t heard me yet.

So, he must be kicking a golem or swinging a weapon.

If he knew he was a golem, he would never do that.

He must have raised his weapon and stood guard far away from the golem.

I don’t know everything, so I can be like that.

‘It can be handled without me.’

put the sword back.

Even if I didn’t have to step out, it was possible to deal with the golem with just the people here.

I don’t have to step out.

“let’s go.”

At my words, Mahol and Reina approached cautiously.

Elise took a deep breath and looked back and forth between the golem and me.

“From now on, my name will no longer be Raymond.”

“Yes? what is that… .”

“My name is Red Mill. Keiji was born as the son of an ordinary farmer and became a knight after losing his parents. It should be enough to be around 30 years old.”

“What do you mean?”

“Raymond-sama is Raymond-sama. What else is Red Mill… .”

Unlike Mahol and Reina, who were taken aback by my words, Elise nodded without wavering.

“I want you to know that. From now on, I am Red Mill.”

“Are you using a pseudonym?”

“So how do we… .”

As I was wearing a mask, Mahol and Reina asked if they should also use pseudonyms.

I shook my head and said there was no need to do that.

I get tired of being known, but nothing happens apart from being known to them.

But Alice is different.

Beatrice knows that Alice is my exclusive maid.

But if I see her with me, I’m sure I’ll think it’s strange.

“You wear this and don’t take it off.”

“Yes.”

“Your name is Merina. Well… Yes, let’s go with a couple feeling. you and i are a couple together wherever you are.”

“… !”

Alice was still, but Mahol and Raina reacted violently.

He opened his eyes wide, looked back at me and Elise, and raised his hand to cover his mouth.

Handing over the bast face to Alice, she said to them.

“You guys are the siblings I met during my travels. We’ve become quite close, and this time we came to the North to aim for one round. Understand?”

“Yes.”

Mahol and Reina, who grasped the situation, nodded their heads with solemn faces.

Leaving them behind, I turned to Ellis.

The calm beauty’s face disappeared to reveal a plain-looking woman full of freckles.

She felt the bast face covering her face, perhaps because it was strange.

As expensive as it was, it was completely similar to human skin.

It was so sophisticated that you wouldn’t even notice it unless you were really sensitive.

I checked to make sure I didn’t miss anything and walked to the northern city, the fortress gate.

“There, stop!”

Two guards clad in thick iron armor stopped us.

They glared at us with grim faces and insisted on identifying themselves.

I showed them the knight’s plaque I received from the crown prince and called the party behind me my companions.

“Hmm… .”

The guard carefully examined the knight’s plaque I showed him, and then nodded.

It was impossible to imitate the knight’s plaque with the magic sword drawn on it.

That’s why it was judged that there was nothing wrong with the knight’s shield and let us in.

“Wow… .”

“There are so many people.”

Upon entering the city, Mahol and Reina looked at the scenery of the city and burst into exclamations.

There were a lot of people in the fort.

And most of them were heavily armed with weapons.

There is no one who is not carrying a weapon.

For those who lived in an ordinary city, it was full of strange things.

Even the merchants wore leather armor and carried weapons.

Weapons were also sold alongside the food they sold, such as fruit and bread.

It was creating a rather bloody atmosphere, befitting a city that did not know when monsters would attack.

“Would you like to take a look?”

“Yes!”

Since we still had plenty of time, we decided to take them to see the city.

To those who left the academy, all of these things were like a new world.

Even within the academy, I lived a life of oppression until I met me.

They have no money, and even if they have it, they cannot use it, so they are like sheep in a cage.

I had to live only in the academy’s classrooms and in the garbage dump.

And even after meeting me, it was the same.

Reina was not feeling well, so Mahol had to stay at the inn as well.

But not now.

‘As expected, money is good.’

The expensive therapist did her part.

In line with my graduation, Reina’s diseases as well as her health were restored to normal people’s.

Rather, it is because I am healthier than before I got sick, so I can move freely like this.

“The atmosphere is brutal. right?”

“yes. It looks like they are preparing for war.”

The two of them walked one step ahead and looked around whispering to see if everything in the city was interesting.

I followed them and looked around.

A very tense atmosphere.

I was speaking brightly, but whether it was a merchant, a mercenary, or a free knight.

There was fear in their voices.

I came here to take a bite, but I worry about whether I can return alive without dying.

Because going to the north was tantamount to risking one’s own life.

‘Where is Beatrice?’

Glancing at them, he searched the surroundings to see where Beatrice was.

But she was nowhere to be seen.

It may not have come yet.

We still have to wait a week for the northern gate to open.

I also came too soon.

“Now, let’s grab an inn. Let’s do the unfinished sighting tomorrow.”

“Yes!”

They answered at the same time and headed to the outskirts of the city.

The inn where Beatrice stayed in the original story.

And like her, we headed to the inn where the main character had taken care of.

[The place where the clouds stay.]

I saw an inn with a unique name.

Only those who knew and those who did not know did not know, so there were not many people around the inn.

There was no choice but to do so, and there was nothing to enjoy around the inn.

If there were no people passing by, it would not be strange to say that it was a slum because there were only so many old buildings.

“uh… .”

And I was able to find one there.

A man who couldn’t enter the inn and walked around at the entrance chewing his nails.

‘found.’

The Beatrice I had been looking for so long was there.

Covering his appearance with magic, with a troubled face.

[‘Unknown God’ smiles strangely.]

It was a very grateful situation.
