"..."
It has been a few hours since we departed.
Currently, we're in a mountain forest.
Nothing much has happened, and I'm not complaining.
Including me, there are a total of eight escorts guarding the five carriages we have.
So I'm not really pressured to take action all the time...
And so, the peaceful travel continued.
Or so I wished...
"Bandits!"
We were ambushed by mountain bandits.
"Let's work, Pyro."
I said, glancing at the cute slime perched on my right shoulder.
And brightly...
-Meep!
Pyro responded.
I immediately left the carriage after that.
And outside...
"..."
Chaos was unfolding.
There were more than 20 attackers, and our side was quickly being pushed back!
'Shit.'
I thought as a frown appeared on my face.
And not long after...
"HAAAHHH!!!"
A bandit came charging in my direction.
