First, I'm the type of person who prefers to close the point—in other words, getting straight to the point. Second, I don't like eating orc meat, goblins, or anything like that in this world. Third, if asked whether I'm good or not in this world, I can only say that I'm doing my best for now. Fourth and fifth, I hate crime, crime, mischief—if I find a person who does such a thing and is given the task of exterminating that person, I readily accept that and kill that person.
By the way, having sharp eyes, jet black hair, and an indifferent face makes me feel like a cold, fierce person, hated by many people, and so on. Many people say that to me, even though I'm just an ordinary human who always completes missions properly and correctly. Almost every mission I succeed I do well and correctly, and the probability of failure is 3%.
Do you know why I still have a 3% chance of failing my mission? Ah, that's because I still have a human nature to the humans I want to see. It happened when I saw the face of the human I wanted to kill looked pitiful. It was so sad, I had time to think about whether this person deserved to be alive or not.
To be honest, being an army major was tough. It sounds good to ordinary people, but for me, the missions given to me, on average having to fight and kill enemies without mercy, are so hard for me to accept. Sometimes I have to lock up my room after killing, sometimes I have to think about the fate of the family of the person I've killed.
But even so, until the last second, before I declared my retirement from my military service and before I killed my father, I was still wondering whether I was indeed assigned to live in this world to kill, or to judge guilty people.
Even now, in this new world, I'm living in, I'm wondering whether I deserve to do this or not.
With just one principle, maybe that's what I hold on to right now and continue to breathe in this world.
"Oi, in this world there are cigarettes?"
"Why? You want?"
"I want one."
Handing me a cigarette straight from the cigar, he seemed selflessly affectionate to me. Even though if you remember that I am a stranger to him, he might not do that and forbid me to smoke because it is not good.
"Ah~ thank you."
Checking my trouser pocket, I found a match in there, possibly from my previous world.
"I forgot to return the civilian lighter."
Glancing at me for a moment, the man who was driving his horse seemed to want to ask the match I was holding at the moment, and I burned this cigar behind him.
"Umm, this cigar is pretty good too."
A cloud of smoke came out of my mouth, creating a pleasant aroma to my tongue.
Cigars are not bad in this world either.
Since arriving in this world, my body feels light, as if I could fly at any moment. Maybe because the oxygen in this world is still fresh, my body responds well so that my breathing flow is maintained. In this way, every blood that flows in my body can make my muscles stronger, and it was proven when I kicked the monsters last night.
Maybe mathematically, judging from the realm of this world, I can breathe 7% better than in my previous world.
Because the geographical location of this world is still green, not filled with cities filled with tall buildings, trees, and planktons capable of producing oxygen more quickly delivered to living things that need oxygen. Therefore, maybe people who have asthma can recover when they arrive in this world.
But then again, I can't judge this world completely well. To be honest, my limited information about this world makes me hesitant to say that this world deserves to be said to be good. Because seeing what happened last night, the many monsters that roamed every corner of the city, I came to know that this world was in danger.
If you can't survive you will die, but if you can survive you will continue to see the faces of those who die, maybe that's what people in this world are currently experiencing. Of course, in this case, it is not appropriate, let alone having to be forced to survive in conditions that do not know when it will "die". But I think whoever the people who are on the podium, a podium for those who can survive until the end, those people will be happy for what they have experienced so far.
Yeah, I think so.
On the way to Wibowo Village, I saw birds flying undisturbed from the plane. Flying high, enjoying the breeze, the birds are comfortable in this world.
It feels like they have the freedom to roam this world. That must be pretty fun for them.
"Looks like the seasons are about to change. The birds are looking for a new place to live because this place is about to enter a long dry season."
Hearing him speak, I saw the birds up there flying in flocks.
"Oh, maybe..."
Putting my cigar up, level with my gaze, I saw the tip of this cigar looks like the sun was setting the birds on fire but the birds were able to pass.
"Is it a dry season?"
***
After a long journey, the horse-drawn carriage finally arrived at Wibowo Village.
"We have arrived."
As I lowered my feet to the ground, I began to feel a threatening air around me.
Looking around for a moment to determine if this village had anyone living, I couldn't find the source of this threatening air.
"I think the air is coming from the forest."
Having a distance of 450 meters from this village, the forest seemed to threaten anyone who was around here and intended to stay here.
After parking the horse, he came to me with a worried face.
"Are you sure?"
He asked the same thing again, it irritated me a bit.
What the hell people in this world, always ask the same thing. Very annoying.
"Yes. If you ask that again, I will…"
"Hmph?"
"Just forget it."
"But by the way, there's no sign of human life here, but why am I feeling this strange air?"
While asking that, he looked around.
"As expected you feel the same as me."
"You know something?"
"No, I don't know anything."
After I said that succinctly and sharply, he walked over to his horse carriage, took something from there, then returned to my place with a backpack probably made of hand-woven, and handed it to me.
"Take this!"
"What's this?"
"Judging by this place and your clothes, you need food supplies. That bag contains some food for my lunch, and there's also a change of clothes for you later."
"Why did you give this to me?"
"I don't know, maybe because I think you need it more than I do."
He turned back after saying that, and I couldn't help but stare as he watched him walk.
"Then I'll excuse myself. See you later. Please return safely."
Waving his hand as he walked, he left this place in his horse-drawn carriage.
"Strange… Why are people in this world so nice to me?"
It seems strange to me because since I arrived in this world, they have always been kind to me, even though I am a stranger, nothing to them.
Obviously, at this time they don't know my true identity, there are only 2 people who know my identity, but they seem to judge me as an important person.
Worrying about all this, I decided to walk through this village.
Seen some debris that has been mossy around here. There are some debris and roadblocks made of wood that have been crushed over time so that they blend into the slightly wet ground. There's no sign of human life here, it's just me. And when I looked carefully, some dried bloodstains could still be seen around here.
"It seems that this village was brutally attacked. The bloodstains still linger, leaving memories for this village."
Following where the sun was at the moment, I walked south, according to what the innkeeper had said.
"It will probably take me 50 minutes to get there, and it will be 20 minutes less if I throw this backpack away. But it's better, I don't throw away the thing that has been given to me."
Accepting all of this, I continued walking while looking around cautiously for this threatening air.
While walking, I did not forget to also look at the position of the sun. Because at any time the sun can change to a red moon, and I have seen it directly yesterday, I can swiftly run at any time and arrive at the Rojali Forest sooner than my estimated time.
"The mission this time, my first mission in this world, is likely to be quite difficult than the mission of killing a ministerial official. I hope I can repay my debt to her before I die."
