Chapter 280: Stupid Fuss


    Returning back to the beginning.


    After I finished my conversation with Finne, I created a transfer gate to leave.


    Silver-sama. Who are you going to meet first?


    There is only one person whose location I know for sure. I have to get in touch with that old man before he gets lost again.


    So you will be meeting with the [Lost Sword Saint] first. The rest are the [Bipr Divine Fist], the [Wandering Bow God], and the [Void Crusher Magic Swordsman] whose identity is as mysterious as Silver. I can pretty much tell how difficult their personalities are just from the rumors but will you be able to talk with them?


    The one who I think will listen to me is only Egor. That persons bad habit is that he always wanders off but now that he is staying in one ce, it is not a problem.


    If not for that, he would be the most difficult person to find since he can be lost for decades at a time. Thats why he was originally someone who you would have a hard time locating the most.


    What about the other three?


    I wont know unless I meet them face to face. I dont think that they will not help me butit will probably cause me a huge debt.


    I dont think that they will cooperate with me without something in return.


    Finding them alone is not hard enough. Persuading them is even harder.


    They dont listen to what people have to say after all.


    Haa


    Please do your best! I will do what I can here too!


    Im a little more motivated now that I hear you say that. Alright, Im off.


    Yes. please have a safe trip.


    Saying so, Finne sent me off with a bow.


    I transferred to a vige inside the Dwarf Autonomous Zone inside the Empire.


    Egor should be here protecting Sonia and her parents.


    At least he shouldnt leave yet until Gordon ispletely rendered powerless.


    This helped me out.


    It seems Egor has taken a liking to Sonia which that in itself is quite unusual


    Thinking so, I walked through the dwarven vige.


    I approached the hut where Sonia and her parents lived before but there was no sign of people there. Instead, a loud noise was heard at the center of the vige.


    A festival?


    No matter how I see it, thats a lot of noise.


    The heavy drinker Dwarves love their festival after all. They always find a chance to hold a festival and have lots of drink. Im sure its like that this time too.


    When I judged so and kept walking to the vige center, I found more and more drunken dwarves sleeping all over.


    I was wondering if I should wake them up but since they seem to be sleeping sofortably and its not like there is just one or two of them, I gave up on the idea.


    Then, I heard loudughter.


    Surrounding a huge bonfire, the Dwarves were drinking and making noises. Judging from this, they must have been partying sincest night.


    Among them, the noisiest one belongs to the group of strong-looking dwarves.


    At the center of that group is a small dwarven old man.


    Cmon! Look at his Sword Saints tricks!


    WaHaHa! Good! Another round!


    Amazing! Its too fast I cant even see it!!


    .


    Egor was performing a trick at the center of the group of dwarves.


    He is naked and the trick he is performing is moving the two pot lids in his hands to hide his crotch at high speed. As expected of the Sword Saint he switched the lids so fast that I cant see it.


    All swordsmen in this continent would be disappointed at the sight but the dwarves surrounding him are allughing their heads off.


    It seems that this is not the first time he is showing them this trick huh.


    This is why I hate dealing with SS-rank adventurers.


    Haa.


    I sigh and look up at the sky.


    What is sadder about this situation is that I have to ask that old man for help.


    When I returned my eyes down to the scene before me, it had already escted. The dwarves began to throw something that looked like a nut at Egors crotch.


    GOO!!! GET HIM!


    UOAAAAAHH!!!


    NAIVE! DONT THINK YOU CAN BREAK THROUGH MY ABSOLUTE DEFENSE THAT EASILY!


    With that said, Egor deflects them away with the lids.


    Seeing that, the dwarves screamed out in defeat and another young dwarf rose to the challenge.


    Now, what should I do?


    Honestly, I dont want to get involved with them.


    When I thought so, female dwarves appeared with trays in hands.


    Yes, yes! Its dinner! Wear some clothes!


    What!? Its time for that already! So no one manages to break through my defense after all huh


    Egor disappointingly muttered so.


    He wanted someone to break through that huh.


    I cant really understand him.


    When I was standing there stunned, Sonia appeared mixed in with the dwarven women who brought the food. Then, she immediately noticed me.


    No way? Why are you!? What happened!?


    Nn?


    Due to Sonias voice, the dwarves who were making merry finally look at me.


    All of them had bright red faces, probably thanks to all the alcohol they drank.


    Whos that? That gloomy looking guy?


    Your Majesty, you dont know him? Thats him you know, him, the guy that is famous in the Imperial Capital..Gold!


    Its Silver.


    I was so tired after witnessing all that so I didnt have the strength to strongly retort.


    I corrected them for the time being and the dwarf they called Your Majesty nodded several times before he loudlyughed again.


    OH! I SEE! I SEE! Its Elder Egors friend huh! You came at a good time! Have a drink! We got a lot of booze from the princess and the duke at the east border you see! Drink as much as you like!!


    Even if you say that, Your Majesty has been drinking for days now hasnt it..please take a rest soon.


    Sonia tells the Dwarven King with an astounded expression on her face.


    It seems she got quite familiar with the dwarves huh.


    When I thought that way, Egor came to me.


    And he still hasnt put on any clothes yet.


    Youe at a good time! Silver! Check out my absolute defense!


    Saying so, Egor switches the lids covering his crotch at high speed.


    I mean its amazing but I kind of felt like asking him what is he trying to do.


    So?


    Young people in the vige wont even give me a challenge! You do it!


    OH! A battle between SS-rank adventurers huh! Good! Do it!


    With the Dwarven King getting on board with it, the other dwarves also cheer.


    Then a fruit was handed to me.


    I unintentionally nced at Sonia but she only answered me with a bitter smile.


    I dont think this will end unless you do it you know.


    I see.


    Cmon,e at me from anywhere you like!!


    Egor who is getting more enthusiastic shuffles the lid at even a faster speed.


    After signing once, I strengthened my body and threw the fruit at him.


    The timing doesnt matter.


    The fruit was blocked by the lid but it pierced the lid and directly hit Egors crotch.


    OUGHH!!??


    WOAHHHH!!


    Amazing! He got him!


    As expected of an SS-rank adventurer!


    Haa.


    How many times have I sighed since I got here.


    Egor holds his crotch and mutters while crouching down.


    Y, You dont go easy on an old man at all huh


    Someone who ys with pot lids like that is not an old man in my head. Anyway, I have something to talk with you.


    Wait a minute..I let my guard down so it hurt a little..


    It hurts because you let your guard down?


    With such a question in mind, I let out another sigh.
