Chapter 61: 62

Chaptet 62 - Immediate Contact

"Hey, Barca guys. What the hell are you coming here to do?"

　A man yelled from the village while both sides were facing each other, prepared for battle.

　While holding a weapon in one hand, the man jabs it forward and comes out to the front of the group.

　He has a big sword.

　Can it be considered a great-sword?

　Despite having a wide and thick (TLN:ヽ(｡◕o◕｡)ﾉ) sword in his hand, he is moving without showing any particular pretense that makes it seem like the sword feels heavy.

　His weapon is quite different and unique even in this group.

　Like the guys in our village, they basically don't have very good weapons.

　There are many people who just grabbed their farm equipment and came out if their weapons were rusting or the like. 

　It is a spear that is often used as a weapon for war, not farm tools.

　The reason why there are many spears instead of swords is related to the economic aspect.

　A sword that requires a certain length of metal from the handle to the tip of the blade versus a spear that only has a cutting edge attached to the tip of a wooden stick.

　By comparison, the amount of metal used is overwhelmingly less for spears, and the price is cheaper.

　Therefore, it can be said that owning a sword shows that one has economic power.

　In other words, what I want to say is that having a great-sword that is larger than a person's height in a group with only trashy weapons is a unique presence by itself.

"Hmm, maybe he is Vargas?"

"Vargas? Dad, do you know him?"

"Oh, I know him. He's like a hero around here, because he used to have great successes on many battlefields."

"Then he's pretty strong, isn't he?"

"But it is a story from a long time ago. We heard he had gone somewhere ... did he come back?"

　Apparently, the man seems to be a celebrity next door.

　It seems that people of the same age or older as my father are familiar with Vargas.

　After Vargas appeared, voices rose here and there and people started getting upset on our side.

　On the other hand, the people in the neighboring village seem to have regained a great deal of calm with Vargas coming forward.

　It is said that he once left this place, but is he still a reliable man for the people in this village?

"Listen! The Fontanas committed an outrageous act against the inhabitants of the village of Barca. We got angry with that and decided to rebel, so cooperate with us!"

　It was when I was observing the man named Vargas who spoke out just then.

　Baito-nii, went out in front of our group and started talking to the other side.

　The appearance of Vargas's holding a great-sword gave a feeling of intimidation to us, but Baito-nii should've also given the other party the same feeling.

　My brother is by far the most well-clad in terms of equipment.

　That would be natural.

　After all, the equipment was prepared by me.

　First, Baito-nii is riding a hornless Valkyrie.

　Usually, few farmers have riding skills.

　In the first place, few humans even have a Familiar that can be mounted.

　Baito-nii was riding a majestic Familiar which had a pure white coat.

　His body is wrapped in brand new leather armor.

　This is an armor created from the wild boar fur tanned with Mana Recovery Medicine as a catalyst.

　Most of the farmers only use farm tools as weapons, and there is almost no armor.

　At best, one might use a wooden board as a shield.

　The leather armor is made to fit perfectly on the body of my brother, who is still a child and is clearly going to continue to grow.

　But even more amazing was the weapon he had.

　It is not as big as Vargas's great sword, but it is a hard fang sword made from the fangs of large wild boars.

　It was given to him by me, who created it with Gran-san's help.

　It is not metal, but it is a sword that shines a fascinating light.

　What kind of existence does such a Nii-san look like from the other side's point of view?

　They would never dream of him being the second son of an ordinary farmer.

"That equipment, maybe it's you? The one who is called Barca's Hunter ..."

"Hmm? Oh, that's not the case. The one who is 'Barca's Hunter' is my brother. Ars, come forward."

　My brother and Vargas speak a few words and niisan calls me.

　I don't understand who they are talking about for the time being, but let's still go forward.

"Hey, don't joke with me. You don't seriously believe such a small kid can kill a wild boar alone!"

　Ah I see.

　Is the 'Barca's Hunter' the name given to me because I defeated the wild boars?

　By the way, Gran told me that he came here because he heard about the extermination of the wild boars.

　I wonder if rumors are spreading far and wide.

"Oi, I'll forgive you and I'll just laugh at your kid's joke. Just go home with the guys behind you, already."

"Don't be silly, as I said earlier. We citizens of Barca will fight the Fontana family. You guys will cooperate with us, okay?"

"I won't play along with your stupid games. You can't convince me that such a far-fetched joke is true."

"Oh, really?"

"What, gonna challenge me?"

　Dangerous.

　Baito-nii and Vargas began to turn the conversation into something like a quarrel.

　However, it can be dangerous if a quarrel starts.

　Behind each other, humans with weapons are leaning forward and getting closer to each other.

　It cannot be helped.

　I gave up the peaceful solution I spent time to think of and fired magic as a warning towards Vargas.
