Farewell

Farewell
A whole day had passed since the battle with the Orc King. I was sitting on my bed in my room at the inn, checking my status.
And as I looked at the window displaying the results, I muttered a few words.
“I was quite disappointed to lose to that female demon.”
I don’t think I have done any bloody training……in the past few days, but I just continued to intensively train my basic abilities.
All of this was done to cover up the impulsive feelings that came from not being able to admit the humiliation of being defeated by that female demon and being made painfully aware of my own powerlessness, but it worked in return and I was able to achieve more than my targeted abilities.
[Name]: Roland
[Age]: 12 years old
[Gender]: Male
[Race]: Human
[Occupation]: Adventurer (C-rank), Former son of a lord
Physical strength: 7500
Magic power: 9100
Strength: S-
Endurance: A+
Agility: A+
Dexterity: A+
Mental Strength: S-
Resistance: A+
Luck: S-
[Skills]: Appraisal Lv9, Physical Enhancement Lv9, Presence Detection Lv8, Presence Blocking Lv9, Magic Control Lv9, Magic Manipulation Lv9, Fire Magic Lv8, Water Magic Lv8, Wind Magic Lv8, Soil Magic Lv8, Flame Magic Lv5, Ice Magic Lv6, Lightning Magic Lv5, Earth Magic Lv5, Swordsmanship Lv7, Hand-to-hand Combat Lv8, Focus Lv2 (NEW), Increased Skill Acquisition Rate Lv1(NEW), Increased Skill Proficiency Lv1(NEW)
…huh? Isn’t the swing of getting stronger strange? But that just showed how intensive my training was. At any rate, the ability to “Focus” has grown into a skill, just as its name implies.
In addition (“Concentration”), I also got the skills [Increased Skill Acquisition Rate] and [Increased Skill Proficiency]. From the wordings, it probably meant that the skill acquisition rate and skill proficiency increased, making it easier to learn a skill and raising its level. These might be quite nice skills to get.
Since I had this ability at the time of the Orc King battle, the Orc King was no longer my enemy, but I did not want to act too conspicuously in order to continue my journey in peace. I thought that I could get Gyrmzak and his party, whom I happened to have trained, to do something about it, but unfortunately, my intention was not fulfilled.
After the orcs were exterminated, the cleanup work began immediately, and a banquet was held a short time later to celebrate the city’s salvation, but for some reason, I was feted as the hero, not Gyrmzak and his party.
The other adventurers were full of praise, saying that my magic was amazing, that I had held off the attack of the Orc King, and that I was indeed the master of Gyrmzak and his party.
As a small resistance, I tried to argue that it was Gyrmzak and his party who put the finishing blow, but my argument was not accepted because I had contributed more to the fight than Gyrmzak and his party, and they themselves said, “Master was doing much more than us.”
I guess it can’t be helped that I did this myself, but I dare to say……I can’t understand it.
If one were to compare Gyrmzak’s team with the Orc King in terms of strength, the winner would be the Orc King.
No matter how much I trained them, there was a limit to how strong they could become, as it would depend on how much talent they originally possessed in order to become stronger.
Although Gyrmzak and his party had certainly become stronger during the past few days of training, it would still be difficult to say whether the four of them could defeat the Orc King.
That was why I intervened directly myself, but this was where the miscalculation occurred. The Orc King was stronger than I had expected.
Even Gyrmzak and his party, who were originally supposed to fight him, had a tough time, so I had to change my plans and fight him myself.
“I was hoping for a more peaceful life. Well, now that it’s come to this, I guess I have no choice.”
After muttering a few words, I left the room and went downstairs to the inn. The dining room was already overflowing with drunken, sleeping adventurers, including Gyrmzak and his party.
With a wry smile on my face, I spoke to Nesana, who was tending the bar.
“It’s so lively.”
“Ara~ it’s the little boy. What are you doing here so late at night~?”
“It’s a bit sudden, but I’ve decided to leave the city.”
“Ara ara~, that’s really sudden~ Do you hate this city?”
I shook my head to the side to deny her question. It wasn’t that I was becoming tired of this city, but rather that I was ready to move on to the next city.
The reason I originally came to this city was that I chose the city of Rendark to earn some traveling expenses as part of my plan to leave the Malbert family while my siblings, Mark, and the others, were away at an unveiling party in Royal Capital.
Originally, I had planned to leave the city a little earlier, but I got caught up in the Orc King uproar, and my plans to leave the city were simply extended.
“This is a nice city. It’s lively, the people are friendly, and the women are all beautiful.”
“Ara ara~ you’re so good~!”
“But I have something I want to do. To continue that goal, I’m going to the next city. That’s all. I don’t hate this city.”
“That’s good to know.”
Nesana let out a sigh of relief at my words, but the next words she opened her mouth were concerned for me.
“But why would you leave in the middle of the night~? At least, you could leave early in the morning.”
“That’s when the guys who are drunk right now are going to wake up and try to stop me. This is a perfect time.”
“Right…”
“Thank you, Nesana-san, for taking care of me.“
“Yup. Eii”
“Bofu”
Finally, when I said goodbye to Nesana and asked for a handshake. She suddenly hugged me. But because I was too short for her, my head was buried in her chest.
“Mmm, mmm!”
“Ara, I’m sorry. You’re so cute, I couldn’t resist.”
I was buried in Nesana’s chest, and she hurriedly released me when she realized that I could no longer breathe. I felt a mixture of sadness at the loss of the happiness of the touch, but also mixed emotions, not knowing whether to be happy or disappointed that I had avoided the worst-case scenario of suffocation.
After saying goodbye to her, I left “Spring Break Tree,” the inn that had taken care of me until now, to go to the Adventurers’ Guild.
When I arrived at the Adventurers’ Guild, I called out to Mirian, who was at the reception counter, to see if the guildmaster was there, and headed to his room.
“Is that so…we will miss you, but be well.”
“You’re not going to stop me?”
“I had a feeling you were going to leave the city. And you wouldn’t listen to me if I tried to stop you, would you?”
“That’s right. Don’t ask.”
I said my goodbyes to the guildmaster and left the Adventurers’ Guild. Needless to say, I also said goodbye to Milian as I left the guild.
The sun had not yet risen, and the town was shrouded in darkness, as there were no streetlights. Some of the bars, the Adventurers’ Guild, and other public facilities were lit at least minimally, but other than that, there was almost nothing to see.
“A lot has happened in this city, but now I can go to the next one.”
Thinking back to when I first came to the city of Rendark, I showed my guild card to the gatekeeper and walked out of the city. I thought I would be blamed for going out of town at this time of night, but surprisingly, the gatekeeper let me through without any problems.
With one last glance back at the city of Rendark, I set my feet forward to the next town.
