Return of the Former Hero

Chapter 3. Former hero ? Strikes the thieves

There is an attack by thieves.

I who recognized so, begins running north leaving my luggage.

Though I do not think about people getting attacked all the time, I am thrilled with such a development.

This is also but the composure of growing up with the strength of a former hero.

Being summoned previously, my first combat was a goblin.

In accordance to it’s image, the goblin is an low level demon who is the demon version of a thief that builds its nest close to village and town to abduct humans.

However, it was scary for me in those days who was still a 12 years old brat that was near my elementary school graduation.

With the latent power and magic of a hero, although there was no risk to my life due to an escorting knight, to be honest, I cried, wet myself and vomited.

Even if I was an adult, I think I would wet my pants there. It’s seriously scary.

Returning to the royal palace afterwards, the embarrassment when I handed the wet underwear and pants to the maid is unforgettable.

Well, if it’s the same situation now, there will be even more unforgettable memories in a different meaning.

……Oops, I had a strange delusion.

While nursing the delusion, I arrived at the site.

There are 15 thieves altogether.

There are a 3 people group for each of the 3 guards, and a total of 12 people from the group are keeping the horses in check so that it doesn’t escape.

2 of the remaining 3 people are keeping a look out.

The remaining person is standing at a slight distance on alert like a commander.

The people of the guards on the other hand does not have anyone who has fallen, but should I say, they are outnumbered.

Being divided individually and surrounded, it’s a matter of time before they are defeated.

Rather, should I praise the ability to hold out with one to three?

“Oi, something is coming over here.”

I am discovered by the thief on lookout.

The location where the camp is pitched is a good place with a view, so it’s impossible to approach while hiding.

The attention of everyone at that place is turned towards me, and each of them is showing vigilance.

I got involved as it is without being concerned.

“Binding of the earth”

I invoked magic while shortening the distance.

I’m in range to see their feet and ivy made from soil is born from beneath the steps of 9 thieves, twining around their feet.

“?!……wha, what is GOFU!”

A thief on lookout is surprised at the sudden magic and restriction,

and I expressed my condolences while performing a body blow when passing him.

As I had strengthen my physical ability with magic, there is the power to break several bones easily.

“Please fall behind a little. Binding of the earth.”

While issuing an instruction to the guards who doesn’t understand what has happened well,

I moved to the location looking over the thieves who have not been restrained yet and cast the magic again.

Unable to avoid the earth ivy extending from their steps too, the remaining thieves stopped moving.

“Ku…..this shit is”

“What the hell happened?”

While the thieves with their feet sealed are shouting about something, they slash at the soil entwined while squirming about.

When I approach, the sword was swung towards here.

There are no sword lines when both legs are fixed too, and they are just swing it around recklessly.

While sneaking around behind, I strike their side one by one.

Striking half their numbers, a fireball flies at me from behind.

“Oops”

Naturally I avoid it.

The thief who seems to be the commander a slight distance away shot the magic.

However, I guess he was found out for using fire series magic for a surprise attack in the middle of the night.

There would have been a possibility to hit if a knife is thrown.

The thief clicks his tongue at being avoided and begins his next chant.

Before it was invoked, I drew near from the front and gave him a hard blow.

After that, I knocked down the remaining thieves afterwards too despite their sorry degree of resistance.

—————-

Seems like the group under attack, as expected, was the merchant party.

Giving deep gratitude, it was decided for me to go together until we reach the town.

This way, because walking a 2 days distance to town while taking the 15 thieves captured along is extremely troublesome, I decided to accept the kind offer.

One thing that is regrettable, was the 3 merchants helped were all male.

In such case, if a cute girl was here, I could expect some development of falling in love with my strength.

Tsk.
