Otome Game no Heroine de Saikyou Survival-Chapter 214.2
The town of Ludo was several days away from the royal capital by carriage, but under the Ostole family’s management, a chapel was built alongside the mansion, and many people from the surrounding villages visited the town.
“I’m an adventurer in the royal capital, and I’m Aria. So, what happened?”
“Ye, yes.”
Colette explained to us as we walked along.
Although not as large as the chapel where the assassin’s guild was located, a large cemetery had been built in the town of Ludo, extending to the forest side of the town.
In this world, to prevent the outbreak of the undead, people were cremated and cleansed by priests. Then different burials were done according to the number of donations from each community, each family, each individual, etc. Recently, however, they noticed miasma in the graves that were supposed to be cleansed.
“That’s where we [Golden Arrow] were asked to come in… to investigate the situation in the area…”
Their party [Golden Arrow] was a rank 2 party of two people, one scout hunter, and one magician.
They have a good balance and could probably handle most requests, but they must be trusted by the Adventurers’ Guild if they were asked to investigate a matter that would affect the security of the town.
However, the girls encountered an unexpected enemy in their request.
“We knew we couldn’t win…so we split up…”
“Hey, Colette’s at her limit!”
Perhaps because she had escaped from the orc zombies and started moving without a decent break, Colette was so exhausted that she was unable to speak, and Cara’s leg was trembling slightly.
“Cara, I’m…okay. Quickly… we need to report to the guild.”
“Colette is weak, don’t push yourself!”
“But…”
“That’s part of our agreement, I know, okay? Look, you, I just want to give Colette a break, okay?”
“Okay.”
Colette wanted to get back to the guild as soon as possible, but Cara stopped her. I didn’t want to meddle in another party’s affairs, although Cara’s tone was a bit annoying.
Besides, it was my fault for not noticing that the girls were tired after seeing Colette’s impatience in worrying about the safety of her friends. I had also forgotten that an ordinary adventurer could not keep running for half a day.
But there was a reason I thought so. Colette was concerned about “something” when she spoke. If she was unable to talk about it here, she felt it would be better to get back to town as soon as possible.

Taking a break, the girls sat down on a nearby rock and began drinking water from a leather bag.
I also took out a bowl from my {Shadow Storage} and poured water with life magic to drink, and when Cara saw this, she scowled.
“You, weren’t you taught not to waste magic power? It’s common sense to refrain from using life magic if you’re in a place where there might be enemies.”
“Cara, don’t be rude! Aria is a strong adventurer.”
I didn’t know what kind of common sense it was, but it was certainly wise for her to refrain from using magic if her magic power was only about 50. But when Colette chided Cara for saying that, Cara took her gaze away from me and turned to the side.
“Even I can defeat an orc if I get a little higher in rank.”
Indeed, at rank 3, she would be equal to an orc in rank.
Apparently, the reason why our characters were strangely embroiled was that I, who was not so different from them in appearance and age, seemed to be trusted by Colette, and I thought that was uninteresting.
After a few more stops, we managed to reach the town of Ludo by evening.
It was a small town with no more than a thousand people, and there must be larger villages than this one. Nevertheless, the reason it was called a town was simply because it was managed by a baroness and the town was well-equipped with all the necessary amenities.
There was no change in the appearance of the town seen from the outside, and the soldiers guarding the gate let me through just by showing my adventurer recognition tag, which was unchanged, but the soldiers were acting a little suspicious when I showed them my rank 5, magical iron recognition tag.
The whole town didn’t look any different. …visually.
