“Huh, you’re alone?”
By the time I arrived at the rendezvous point, Weiss was already there.
“Yeah, due to a number of reasons. She might come later perhaps, but she probably won’t make it in time.”
As far as it goes, I left a memo with the location before I left the house, but she might not notice it.
“Weiss, do you know anything about ogres?”
“Well, only the general information.”
“Then it would help if you tell me about them.”
Since it was this kind of situation, anyone was fine as long as they were more informed than me.
It was originally planned for Weiss to come too, so it should be fine.
“Okay.”
“Then let’s hurry up and head there.
We quickly left the town, and headed to where the ogre was. I was already wearing the black cloak just in case.
“What’s that for?”
Weiss asks, as if seeing something strange. Come to think of it, I still haven’t explained about [this].
“I told you before about not wanting everyone to know about my recovery magic, right? And so, I fought a monster troop while wearing this to prevent my face from being exposed. And before I knew it, I ended up being called the [Jet-black Saviour], you see……”
“……Ain’t that cool?”
“As if it isn’t lame!?
Even I know that. I thought it was a pathetic name when I coincidently overheard it, and when I learnt that it actually referred to me, sheesh……!!
However, it’s not like I can do anything about that now.
Moreover, somehow the townspeople don’t think the [Jet-black Saviour] moniker was out of place at all, and even consider it stylish which is terrible.
Even though they should know what a cruel name it was if they thought about it normally…..
While hearing about the ogres in advance, we arrived at the intended location.
The astonishing thing I learnt was that [Ogres] were apparently humanoid monsters. Of course, they couldn’t fly either.
I learnt that they had no relation to large moths at all, but why then would they call them [Ogres], I wonder……
Another piece of intelligence I should keep in mind, would be the ogres’ overwhelming physical strength.
It seems they would even surpass dragons, if it’s just regarding the ogres’ physical strength. If I take them on directly, I would be helpless.
“Sigh, I’m starting to get nervous now.”
Nothing ogre-like has entered my field of vision yet, but I dare say it’ll approach that point soon.
Thinking back, the goblins weren’t much of an opponent, and the dragon was scary but I was able to flee from it.
But this time is different.
I already know that it’s [strong]. I also know that I might die if I’m careless.
And also the fact that this a battle where I absolutely can’t [run away]――
