Chapter 40: 40

Chapter 40— First battle

"Fugo, Fugo."

　My eyes are looking at the big boars in the field.

　The boars are eating the vegetables in the soil as if sticking their noses into the field that I made.

　They're eating the food deliciously with a crunchy sound. Mocha, mocha.

　That is natural.

　This is because all the vegetables I have planted and grown are delicious.

　However, it seemed that Hatsuka was the favorite one.

　Do you like it because it is chewy?

　It's originally for the Valkyries, and I'm impressed that you can eat such a hard-covered food without any worries.

"Even so, they're huge since they are big boars."

　The wild boars' large bodies are noticiable just by checking from a distance.

　Maybe they're about 3m long.

　These boars are not the same as the wild boars that I know.

　Moreover, there are two large fangs next to the pig's nose.

　No one would be able to survive if stabbed by something like that.

"So what do you do in this case? Can anyone fight that?"

"No, it's impossible. It looks like a bow and arrow won't penetrate its skin."

"Seriously. What are you doing, Baito-nii?"

"Ars, you should learn to do these type of things."

"Don't be crazy. Shouldn't we ask the aristocrats to get rid of them?"

"No, even if you ask, they won't come. Even if you say that there is damage by the wild boars, it's only Hatsuka that is being eaten. That's why the aristocrats won't send you any help. In the first place, they can't send anything that can fight against the wild boars quick enough."

　What is that?

　If you can't rely on the aristocrats that govern this land in an emergency, then it doesn't really make sense.

　However, for now, the only real harm is to the Hatsuka.

　Even if we appeal, if the aristocrats eat the scrap vegetables that are purveyors of poor farmers, will you accept them properly even if you are requested to dispatch them? (TLN: ?)

　So it seems we have no choice but to do something ourselves.

　Or rather, Baito-nii seems to have another reason.

　If you are longing to be like a hero, I would like you to devote yourself to exterminating monsters.

"Well, I have to do something about it ... I'll think about it for a moment."

　I decided to think about getting rid of the wild boar, with the desire to complain.

　* * *

"Okay, Valkyrie. we'll go according to strategy!"

"Kui!"

　Giant wild boars are ruining the fields.

　I devised a plan to get rid of those creatures who keep eating my precious harvest in front of my own face.

　However, it is quite scary to put it into practice.

　That's because I have to get out in front of the big boars' eyes.

　I'll have to get as close to the wild boars as 3m soon.

　They have two sharp fangs as a powerful weapon.

　Perhaps they won't just scratch me if I get a rush attack from those giants.

　When I tried to go near them, my body trembled in fear.

　Valkyrie may have felt my tremor.

　She waited until I settled down.

　I feel the warmth of Valkyrie's body by touching her.

　Then mysteriously, my fear disappeared.

　Finally, I took a deep breath and called out to Valkyrie.

　Feeling that my fear had settled within a controllable range, Valkyrie began to move in response to my voice.

　I see a parent and child wild boar who are eating while snorting.

　I got on Valkyrie's back and approached them with a run-up from a distance.

　Every time Valkyrie's foot hits the ground, we speed up.

　The speed at which the surrounding scenery flowed backwards increased, and soon enough, we finally reached the top speed.

　We're fast enough to feel the the pressure of the air.

　It was my first experience to ride Valkyrie running at such a speed.

　However, I manage to cling to her body and continue to ride without being shaken off.

　The bodies of the wild boars, which were visible from a distance, became clearer as we approached.

　They truly are big.

　When the big boars noticed the existence of me and Valkyrie approaching, they turned their heads to us.

　I gently put pressure on the thighs of both my legs to pinch Valkyrie's body.

　Then my left hand firmly grasped the bridle and only the right hand protruded forward.

　I breathe to match the movements of Valkyrie, who runs up and down.

　And I concentrated the magical power that I had kneaded in advance on my right hand.

"Shotgun!"

　A wild boar that has become more vigilant is approaching towards us.

　With Valkyrie running past it, I cast a spell.

　I fired a stone about the size of a golf ball from the palm of my hand.

　Moreover, the stone is not a single entity.

　I released several stones from my right palm at the same time.

　I shouted "shotgun", but I didn't have a spell name.

　It's a magic that was completely released only by the image in my head and not by a spell.

　I can use magic with a wider range of effects as long as I touch the ground, but in the current case where I do not touch the ground, I can only shoot out small stones.

　Moreover, it was on the moving Valkyrie that I used magic.

　I can't aim properly.

　To make up for that, I fired multiple stones at the same time.

　Dodon!

　I heard that.

　Apparently, a shot hit the wild boar brilliantly.

　I quickly run towards it sideways.

"Boooooooooooooo!"

　However, although the wild boar, which should have been hit by the shotgun, was about to lose his position for a moment, he immediately stepped on the ground with his four legs and made a loud roar.

　The roar was angry.

　Apparently, the stones did some damage but not much damage.

"We should run away, Valkyrie."

　All the wild boars started pursuing the attacked individual, who was following us, with the sound of hooves hitting the ground.

　With the sound of the earth echoing in the background, Valkyrie and I started to escape.
