Mushoku no Eiyuu ~Betsu ni Skill Nanka Iranakattan daga~ Chapter 7

Chapter 07 - I'm not joking old man

◆ ◇ ◈ ◇ ◆

* Gotogotogotogoto * Horse carriage run on cobbled streets, makes a collision sound.
I asked to the old man.

"How long will it arrive to the Sword City?"
"Because there are still three more posts town, if this goes smoothly, we will arrive the day after tomorrow"

That old man answered casually.
Two days?
It's been more than one week of travel, almost there huh.

Five years have passed since then.
I was 15 years old now.

On my 15th birthday, I told my father and mother that I would leave the house.
None of them opposed.
I really loved by them.

And now I head for Bresgia, the city called "Sword City".
I always wanted to visit that city.

In Bresgia, people from all over the world who dedicate themselves to fighting gathered.
They work hard together to reach the next height.
Mother had lived in this city before, and I was often told about my mother story at that city since I was a child.

"What are you going to Sword City for, bro?"

I heard a man in his early twenty talking.

"You too"
"That's because of the dream of swordsman. Although there are many people who are frustrated because the level is too high. Even the swordsman who lives near to me, escaped in less than half a year ”

The man raised the corner of his mouth when he looked at me.

"Kukuku, how long will you be, bro?"

A woman who was the same age as that man spoke.

"By a chance, I also want to go to the Sword City"

That man sniffs his nose.

"Hn, swinging a sword is not meant for women"
"Ara, isn't that an ancient thought, are you not from the wilderness?"
"What did you say~?"
"The important thing is [Class], gender does not matter"
"Ha ~, then try to say, is that a good class?
That's not [Basic Class]'s [Swordsman] right? "
"Of course, this is [Advance Class] you know. I am an [Dual Swordsman]. As you know this has very good attack power among the [Advance Class]”

Compared to [Basic Class], [Advance Class] had more types.
It was said [Advance Class] determined by the nature and experience of that person or the skills acquired.
And of course there are popular and unpopular ones.

"Tsk"

The man indifferent.
While the woman laughed at his victory.

"How about you?"
"... I'm a [Gladiator]"
"What the hell, isn't that an unusual [Advance Class]"
"I don't like being equated with women"
"Troubling man ... if you say [Advance Class], isn't that [Sword Emperor] or [Sword Princess]. And for [Upper-Advance Class] there is only one person. "

Then they looked at me.

"How about you, bro?"
"So how about you?"

I answered all the questions.

"I'm [Classless]"

The two people's eyes are rounded.
Laughter can be heard from them for a while.

"Kukuku, hahahahah! Boy, are you really [Classless]? "

"Isn't it pathetic to be laughed at?. You became [Classless] not because you wanted it ... pufufu ~ "

The woman spoke without thinking.

"Well, why would a [Classless] go to Sword City? I see, for traveling! Say that from the start! That makes us confused."
"This is not for traveling. This is for the peak of the sword. "

Clearly rejected.

"Bufufu ~ !? [Classless] to the top of the sword path? Ha ha ha ha! This is a masterpiece! "
"Very good joke, boy, it's not good to joke with parents"
"I am not joking"

When I tried to emphasize, laughter was heard from other passengers.
When you look closely, the old man shrugged his shoulders.

"No, I've experienced this for a long time. Until now, I had seen a number of swordsmen go to Sword City with ambition. But this is the first time for [Classless] "

Fumu
Of course, as expected if I answered honestly that I was [Classless], I would get a reaction like this.
But it's true that I was [Classless]
there was no point in deceiving or lying.

It doesn't change my mind even if someone teases me.

At that moment one of the passengers said, "Hey!"

A number of figures emerged from the forest.

"Is that a bandit?"
"No, that's an orc!"

Orcs were humanoid monsters.
It had a pig-like head, and only slightly taller than an adult, but the skin very thick.

"Oi, isn't that pretty much !?"

One of the passengers screamed.
There're more than ten orcs that appear one by one from the forest.

Usually there're guards who ride horses to prepare to face the attacks of bandits and monsters.
However, no bodyguards on this horse-drawn carriage there because of the low cost.
Or maybe deliberately not recruiting bodyguards because of anticipating passengers heading to the Sword City.

"Tch, it can't be helped?"
"If the amount is only that, I think this will be easy"

That previous men and women got off the train.
Soon after, their faces turned blue.
Shortly, the largest body of orcs emerged from the forest.

"I-It's impossible ... Orc King ...?!"
