After checking the wolf's corpse, he continued his journey deeper into the forest. On the way the sound of the forest turned into silence making the atmosphere feel suspicious. Moirai carefully looked at his surroundings.
"The atmosphere... too quiet..."
In the midst of the silence Moirai saw a deer that had become a corpse near the trees. Moirai approached the corpse of the deer by passing through some bushes that blocked it.
A moment after approaching, it was clear that the deer had dried to death from blood loss. Before approaching further he checked his surroundings first, he also held his necklace just in case.
There were bite marks on the neck... the flesh was untouched... I guess that blood wolf was indeed the goblins' pet...
In that case... the goblins will definitely take this corpse away...
WUSH
As he was watching the corpse, an arrow suddenly flew past Moirai's head. Luckily, the arrow missed and did not hurt Moirai. He quickly dodged another arrow that was shot. The goblins had surrounded Moirai in all directions. Moirai grabbed his necklace and turned it into a sword. Without wasting time he immediately move towards the goblin carrying the bow.
Moirai quickly cut off the goblin's head with ease. Seeing this, the other goblins tried to attack Moirai. One of the goblins tried to stab Moirai with his spear. But Moirai immediately parried and cut the spear.
"Kieekkkk...." The goblin's frightened voice
"Sorry but your green face is very unpleasant" Moirai said when she managed to cut the spear.
After cutting the point of the spear, Moirai immediately took a position to stab the goblin in front of him.
JLEB
The other goblins seemed to freeze because of Moirai's attack. Seeing this, Moirai immediately took advantage of the situation by charging at the remaining archers.
Seeing Moirai coming towards him, he frantically tried to run away, but Moirai immediately slashed the goblin in half. Not stopping there, Moirai immediately attacked the remaining goblins one by one. He slashed the goblins one by one until he realised that there were no goblins left.
"CK... I should have left one... at this rate how am I going to find their nest..." Moirai said while kicking one of the goblin corpses.
After the fight, Moirai approached the deer corpse that the goblins wanted to take. Moirai also cut some of the meat of the deer with his sword.
At least I got some free meat... But... Cutting meat with a sword is really annoying.
Why didn't I bring a knife with me...
Moirai tried to cut the meat neatly but instead the pieces were shattered. As he focused on cutting the twilight sky had enveloped the entire forest. The quiet atmosphere plus the darkening sky made it difficult for Moirai to cut the meat.
He also took some tree branches and followed them to make a campfire. After finishing, Moirai touched one of the branches and magically a fire appeared from the branch.
The campfire was lit brightly illuminating the pitch-black forest.
Moirai also took the meat that had been cut to be cooked over the campfire.
I wonder if this food is even eatable?
Moirai took the wood and flipped the meat. After a few minutes passed Moirai picked up the meat and ate it.
Hmmmmm... it's bland... I guess I still suck at cooking...
If only I had brought some seasoning... I think it would have tasted a little better
Moirai continued eating until the meat was finished. Moirai was thinking for a moment.
"Huff..."
He looked up at the star-filled night sky. Silence seemed to envelop the entire forest.
Without any sound
An absolute silence
A bird-like flame emerged from the bonfire and circled Moirai's head.
Moirai lay down on the grass while looking up at the night sky.
"Hey if there something happens wake me up okay..." moirai said to the bird.
The bird flew away leaving Moirai who was lying relaxed.
"Hmmmm... sleeping after eating is comfortable"
Moirai slowly closed his eyes and began to fall asleep under the stars.
"Happy sweet dreams I guess..."

"Sister hanna... what are you doing here?" Asked little Moirai
"I'm fighting a dragon here hehe..." replied Hanna in a teasing tone.
Little Moirai made a confused face.
"Dragons?"
"Pffftt... of course I'm cooking little Rai..."
Moirai was surprised
"Sister can cook? Sister can really cook? I mean make things eatable?"
"Hey hey... of course I can... a bit, do you think I'm a Priestess in the church can't cook hmm?" Said sister hanna while cutting carrots
"Can sister teach me how to cook please..." begged little Moirai pleadingly.
"Hey why do you suddenly want to learn how to cook? Don't you want to be a knight?"
"I... I want... "
"I want to be able to cook myself so that I can eat well every day" said Moirai with sparkling eyes.
"Kyaaa... little Rai is so cute... then I'll give you the secret to eating well every day..." Hanna said as she rummaged through the kitchen for something
"Hmmm... it should be here..."
"Ahaa... here it is" said sister Hanna as she showed a small jar of spices.
"Hmmm?"
Little Moirai looked at it with confusion.
"What is that thing?"
"Hehehehe... this is a special seasoning that can make all food taste good... even people who can't tell the difference between salt and sugar can eat well with this"
"So sister hanna can cook because of this?"
"Yep... of course..." sister Hanna replied proudly.
"Wait... I mean I can cook... not because of this spice... but because of my skills" said sister Hanna with a face reddened with embarrassment.
"Where can I get it?" said little Moirai curiously.
"Fufufu... you have to defeat a dragon and take extra from the dragon's nail to get this seasoning"
"Really... I have to defeat a dragon?"
"No... you can buy it in various places in various continents... anyway this spice is common in various places and the price is cheap" Hanna said as she continued cooking
"Hmmm what's the name of this thing..." asked little Moirai curiously.
"It's called ...."

A branch fell on Moirai's head. Because of that Moirai immediately stood up and set up his combat position.
"UGHHHH...."
Damn branches...
Then a small fire bird appeared from the tree.
"Why are you bothering me... I was meditating a while ago..."
The bird immediately wore an expression of disbelief
It circled Moirai's head many times and started flying towards the village.
Hey... let me rest for a while
Why does everyone always rush into things
"Whatever is done is done" Moirai said limply, following the bird back to the village.
"I hope nothing bad happens today..."
