Sylphy's ears twitched.

".Thank you for the compliment."

It is worth mentioning that during the past six months of getting along with Sylphy, thanks to Alan's early intervention, she did not suffer bullying for a year as in the original work. She also felt friendship in advance, and her timid character gradually faded away. She has become closer to the image of the gentle and considerate White Mother in the original plot.

Even now, when I hear Allen's compliments from time to time, I won't be too flustered or shy. I can accept them gracefully and express my gratitude.

When Roltz saw this scene, he couldn't help but smile, then he looked up and said to Paul who had walked up to him.

"The snow has stopped. It's time to prepare to clear out the monsters."

-

There are few monsters in the Kingdom of Asura because the monsters in the surrounding villages fall into a period of fatigue in winter, and the knights of each village often lead a siege on a regular basis. This is the national policy of Asura to ensure the prosperity of the commodity economy.

This kind of thing doesn't even need to be mentioned deliberately in the original plot, because it has nothing to do with Rudy, but we can get a glimpse of it from clues, such as:

The book collection in Rudy's house: "The Monster Ecology and Weaknesses in Fitoya Territory".

You have to know that books in the world of Musashi Re:Zero are very expensive. The fact that he has such a book at home means that he definitely didn't buy it as a children's book.

Speaking of this, logically speaking, the monster clearance should not have any intersection with Rudy in the original storyline or now.

However, in the past six months, Allen's father often fell ill, and because he was worried about Sylphy, he dragged Rudy to deliver food to Lortz, so he also helped hunt many monsters that escaped from the forest. Correspondingly, Rudy would also act as a chef to clean up the mess. Over time, most of the adult men in the village realized one thing.

That is, although Alan and Rudy are both under ten years old, they cannot be simply regarded as children. In some aspects, they are even more capable than adults.

Naturally, they were fortunate enough to be able to participate in the preliminary preparations for clearing out the monsters, and Paul himself believed that boys should go out and gain more experience, so naturally he took Alan and Rudy with him to go and see what was going on.

At the edge of the forest, the dense leaves of the summer have completely fallen off, and the woods are wrapped in a thick coat of snow, with each tree clearly separated, allowing people to clearly see the scenes deep in the forest, unlike in other seasons when the shadows are hazy and unclear in the dense shade of the trees.

The men of Buena village pulled the specially lengthened and widened thorn nets, stepped on the thick snow, tied them tightly to the tree trunks in the forest one by one, and then gradually surrounded the entire edge of the forest.

This is to avoid a formal extermination of the monsters, which would cause escaped monsters to sneak into the village.

Alan and Paul stood at the front of the team to keep watch, preventing monsters from suddenly jumping out from under the snow and hurting people, while the two little ones were at the end of the crowd, watching everyone's activities from a distance.

"Uncle, does this kind of cleanup happen every year? I haven't heard of it before."

Paul looked around with the sword in his hand.

"You won't see this kind of scene in the capital. Why, is it new?"

"Not bad. Then, what is that?"

Paul was stunned for a moment and looked at Allen, only to find that he was pointing his finger at a corner deep in the bare forest in the distance. Between the tree trunks, a simple wooden house revealed its mottled eaves.

"Uh, the safe house."

"Safe house?"

"Yes, it is a temporary shelter specially prepared for hunters passing through the forest in winter or caravans that stray into the forest when encountering a blizzard."

"Temporary shelter?"

"Don't underestimate the wide view now. When it snows in the Red Dragon Mountains, it often snows for a month. At that time, it is almost impossible to distinguish east, west, south, and north in the forest. If someone gets lost in the blizzard and enters the forest by mistake, and the carriage is trapped in the snow, it is easy to die in the wind and snow. Therefore, the kingdom ordered the construction of many small shelters like this in the woods to deal with such situations."

Alan was stunned when he heard this, and recalled the scene of driving his fighting spirit through the forest in the snow last year. Before he was assassinated last winter, his original plan was to travel by carriage.

"When the winter wind blows, the updraft on the hillside will easily cause snow to fall, and the carriage will definitely not be able to move on the road."

"I overlooked this point when I made the previous arrangements. So, if nothing unexpected had happened and I had continued on my journey as planned, would I have been delayed by the carriage? I certainly wouldn't have been able to make a timely judgment to abandon the carriage and continue on foot in the forest, but I would have chosen to wait for the snowstorm to end."

"Maybe we'll stop to rest after we find a shelter. If the snow has been falling for a long time, and we find that the carriage can't move, it will probably take a long time. It would be faster to travel on foot using fighting spirit."

'If I did that, I might not have been able to meet Luo Qixi. If I hadn't met Luo Qixi, my score would probably have been hovering around the passing line at best. It was a close call. Although it was very tiring to drive my fighting spirit through the snow to travel, the result of the assassination turned out to be a blessing in disguise. Blessings often come with misfortunes, and misfortunes often come with blessings?'

'Good luck.'

At the edge of the area several dozen meters away from the two men, Roltz was setting up a net with three people around him.

"Hey, Lorce, are you digging a little too deep this year? It's several dozen meters deeper than in previous years. Isn't it dangerous?"

A bearded man nearby scratched his head as he tied the net to the tree trunk and said with some worry.

Roltz said seriously.

"It's okay. In previous years, Paul was the only senior swordsman, so we were more cautious. This year, we have Alan, so even if we awaken some monsters in the east, we can quickly deal with them."

The man smiled when he heard that.

"Alan is indeed excellent, but I didn't expect that the boy from the Knight's family has such talent in magic. In the past two years, first it was Roxy, and now Alan. I believe he will be able to make a name for himself in the future. I heard that your Sylphy has a good relationship with them~ That's great, but it's a pity that they don't play with my child."

Roltz was stunned when he heard this.

"Luffy, yes, ever since Alan came, Luffy has made friends and smiles more often."

Thinking of this, he turned his head to look at the back of the team. The small figure of Sylphy and Rudy were looking at Alan in front of the forest across the crowd. They stretched out their little hands and blew air into their mouths, their ears trembling.

This adorable look was imprinted in Roltz's pupils, and his face melted like snow. Roltz actually cared about Rufei very much in his heart, but he was not very good at coaxing children, which created the illusion of a strict father.

'.That's great. If Lu Fei is happy, Noda can be relieved. She felt guilty for a long time after giving birth to Lu Fei because the child had green hair. It was obviously not her fault. Who can she blame for this phenomenon of atavism?'

The next moment, the distracted Roltz stepped into a clump of snow in front of the tree.

Still in a daze, he seemed to feel that he was not stepping on the air of snow, but on something cylindrical.

His vision was tilted, his feet were shaking, and he was about to fall. At this moment, he heard the terrified shouts from the people around him.

"Roz!!"

"Get out of the way! Lorz!!!"

Almost at the same time, the uncompacted snow under his feet made a thud sound. Surprise flashed in Roltz's eyes, and he tried his best to turn his head.

In sight, clusters of flying snow burst up from the ground, and a huge mouth was already within reach.

As Roltz looked at the huge mouthpart, he felt a surge of heat in his waist and his adrenaline was surging. The circles of tiny fangs in the mouthpart were so clear in his sight, and they were covered with mucus.

But the body is too late to mount any effective response.

Lorz's heart went cold.

Mutated forest snake D-level monster.

The monster was awakened from hibernation.

He delivered a fatal blow to the human who disturbed his sleep.

Transition chapter, fill a main plot hole and dig some new holes.

I will enter and exit the track line tomorrow, no delay.

I'm going to give my fellow readers a round of chapter recommendations! Hehe, I postponed it yesterday. If you like Gundam, you can go and take a look.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 61: Alan, the pretentious and charismatic man, has an affair

The cold wind chilled Roltz's heart. At the moment of life and death, all kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind.

"This kind of thing is too sudden."

"I haven't got Luphy Norda yet."

The forest snake's ferocious mouth was getting closer and closer to his face, and its fangs were already within reach.

Then, it cracked.

In mid-air, in front of Roltz's horrified and regretful gaze, it instantly broke into more than ten pieces in a gesture that was completely sure of its death, and fell in front of Roltz's face like food scraps thrown into a kitchen trash can.

At the same time, he felt a gust of wind blowing on the side of his face.

A trace of light flickered in the air.

Hot blood gushing from the forest snake's body splattered on his face. Only at this moment did waves of exclamations spread around like a tide.

Lortz had no time to pay attention to the concerned responses from the crowd. He turned his head to look at the figure beside him that seemed to have suddenly "squeezed out" from the air.

“Are you okay?!”

This voice has been heard almost every few days in the past six months.

The wind just now did not come from any part of the snowy forest in the mountains.

It was just brought here by someone.

"dad!!"

Sylphy's panicked cries gradually approached. Roltz looked at the dead forest snake on the ground, then looked up at Alan who looked anxious in front of him. He was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses from his trance.

"Thank you. It's a great help."

The adrenaline surged and then faded, and Roltz only felt scared. His legs went weak and he was about to fall, but Alan caught him.

The latter checked Ross's body from top to bottom and left to right, and breathed a sigh of relief when he found that there was nothing wrong. At the same time, Sylphy and Rudy had already run over on the snow.

When Sylphy saw the corpse of the forest snake on the ground, she immediately realized what had happened. She pouted and buried her head in Roltz's arms, but at the same time she reached out and grabbed Alan's sleeve tightly.

Lorz, still feeling a lingering fear, touched Sylphy's head and whispered to comfort her.

Alan breathed a sigh of relief at this scene, and couldn't help but smile at the little hand on his sleeve.

'Luckily we made it in time'

Paul, who was standing by, also suddenly stepped out, looking annoyed.

"Are you okay? I was just paying attention to the other side. Damn it."

"Near miss."

Paul breathed a sigh of relief, and looking at the pieces of forest snake on the snow pile that could almost be cooked and eaten directly, he couldn't help but twitch his lips.

"You are becoming more and more proficient in using the Silent Sword. Your movements are so fast."

“It was just luck.”

"What happened to your previous reaction? You noticed it faster than I did?"

"I have been keeping my senses. Uncle, didn't you say that there might be a monster?"

"You are very thoughtful, kid."

Alan touched Sylphy who turned her head and threw herself into his arms again, and smiled helplessly at Lorz and Rudy who was scratching his head.
