Absolutely Do Not Touch Eldmia Egga

Chapter 687

Her two eyes somehow resemble those of a human, but the orcish bloodline that shows off its presence from the nose to the lower jaw is undeniable.

Unlike the lower canines of orcs, which are usually so protruding that they seem to pierce the eye, her canines only grow to the edge of her nasolabial folds. Judging from the lack of any signs of grooming, it seems like they were not intentionally cut or anything, but were just born that way.

In fact, it is obvious that life would not have been easy just because of that. The only fortunate thing is that his body type is close to that of a human. Thanks to that, he looks like a giant warrior when he covers his face. Isn’t that why he was wearing his visor down until just now? When he lowers his visor, his fangs look like decorations on his helmet.

Of course, that was only ‘close’, and it felt like the muscles of an orc were forcibly squeezed into a human body, but the appearance of the orcs was at a level that gave off the feeling of a monster even from afar, so that was a nobleman.

“Hello, my name is Ethan Ravisher.”

Just by shaking hands and smiling, somehow holding back from a momentary brain freeze, the eyes of the people around me widened. It was definitely not an overreaction. I was also very impressed by the fact that I could pretend to be so calm.

In the past life, with the flood of various fantasy novels and games, there were many worldviews in which orcs were recognized as intelligent life forms, but unfortunately, in this world, orcs are just orcs and monsters.

It’s not about the realm of twisted sexual desires or tastes, but about people who are incompatible, like the goblins in a certain work. But now that I have a half-orc woman in front of me, it’s hard to even imagine how tragic her birth story is.

She and her mother are just victims, but no matter where they go in the land of the human race, they are treated as monsters, and they are treated from the minimum of being stoned to the maximum of being killed. I am proud of my life, but the other side is no joke either.

But, not only did he survive all those hardships, but he was also the leader of a mercenary group. As my hardened brain recovered from the shock, I could only feel admiration.

Perhaps because of that, the half-orc who saw my reaction immediately showed his teeth and smiled.

“I’m a little surprised to ask this. I didn’t know you’d be so calm when you saw me.”

“I’m glad you saw it. It means that I hid my feelings well, even though I was so surprised that I almost sat down.”

“Hahaha, you’re such a talkative guy, you didn’t even take a step back.”

We create a good atmosphere by talking jokingly and my mind is spinning while she holds my hand.

His eyes move quickly as if he were fighting a battle, and he extracts information from other people’s reactions. Thanks to this, he was able to figure out that quite a few of the mercenaries around him were mixed race, just in the short time he spent shaking hands.

This group called Broken Rose is very complicated.

“I’m Lizzy, the one in charge of the Broken Roses here. I was wondering what kind of person she was when Pimel ran away in a hurry, but I liked her from the start.”

“I told you, this Pimel’s eyes are not wrong!”

“Oh, that’s right. It’s always been like that. So, did this guy join our mercenary group?”

“Doesn’t joining require permission from the team leader?”

“We don’t do that. Pimel is better at seeing people than I am.”

It was a truly trustworthy answer. Even the other mercenaries around Chief Lizzy smiled and nodded, showing no complaints.

“I am honored to see not only Mr. Pimel’s outstanding ability but also your strong trust, but I did not show up to join. I came here to make a deal with Mr. Pimel.”

“Huh? Deal? Would it be better if we stopped for a moment and talked?”

“No, you can do it while walking.”

Chief Lizzy’s eyes lit up at my answer.

Even without being told, I know why you’re looking at me like that. Even at this moment, people who briefly looked away just because Director Lee Ji showed his face are now hurriedly moving away. I wonder if he’s a guy who doesn’t care about the eyes of those around him or if he’s a bold guy.

“In return for putting Mr. Pimel’s mysterious abilities to the test, Levien has decided to help you.”

As I walked away smiling, the other mercenaries’ gazes changed subtly. It was strange to see them walking next to Captain Lizzy without any problem, but they seemed more interested in what I was saying.

“Pimel only has one ability, so it’s nothing new… but he can help us? The mercenary group?”

“yes·”

The plan to use the Kingdom Alliance as a garrison force will surely fall through this time. Trust was already at rock bottom, and now that they’ve deceived and robbed a village that was officially recognized by the government by calling it a group of bandits, if the Itisel royal family decides to press on them, they’ll have to be forcibly flown to the Eastern Front or pay a huge amount of compensation.

Otherwise, you will be annihilated here and now under the pretext of having the intention to invade and take advantage of the exhibition. The royal family will not give in easily, but even if that happens, I will be the one who falls.

“I heard that you are supporting the garrison while checking the situation.”

“Wow, that’s really big. Isn’t it too exquisite to be a coincidence?”

He is so quick-witted and straightforward that he can get straight to the point without any further explanation. Not only is he Mr. Pimel, but he is also a great leader. However, I wanted to say that he is so exquisite.

“I think so too. If only things could go this well on a regular basis, life would be a bit smoother.”

“Hmm·”

With a low groan, Captain Ridge scratched his large fangs and thought about it. Is there anything to worry about when I haven’t even said a suggestion yet? Aside from that, the sight I saw for the first time in my life was like seeing an orc as a race that knows how to shine in life as an honorable makgora, so my eyes turned towards it.

“What are you worrying about? Isn’t it better to lose than to gain?”

Mr. Pimel, who was looking back and forth between me and Captain Lizzy, asked me a refreshing question as if he was scratching an itch in me. Captain Lizzy, who had been thinking with her eyes half-open, gave an unexpected answer.

“Somehow, once I start listening to the story, I have a strong feeling that it will be difficult to get out of it, so I am already contemplating whether or not to listen to the story.”

How can you be that careful?

This time, I opened my eyes wide without realizing it and looked at him. Manager Lizzy must have sensed my gaze and raised her head slightly and smiled.

“Don’t take it badly. You should be suspicious of stories that are too good to be true. Judging from the way it looks, it’s not like we’re negotiating separately, so there’s no harm in worrying about it. I have a lot of family members.”

“That’s right. There’s no rush anyway, so take your time thinking about it.”

“Thank you for understanding.”

Anyway, our movement is not fast right now, and it is not something that we need to make a decision on as soon as we arrive at Levien. We only need to make a decision before the hearing that Bisquente mentioned is held, so for now, it was enough to just mix in with the mercenaries, hide the presence of the Demons, and leisurely head to the city.

“Yo···hmm hmm· Mr. Ethan· for a moment·”

At that moment, Laughter Bell approached me, whispered quietly, and pointed forward. And as I followed the tip of his hand wondering what was going on, I had to clench my molars as I felt the crisis of acute hypertension.

“What the hell is that···?”

This is because an inexplicable bottleneck occurred starting from the camp set up outside by the allied forces of the kingdoms who were unable to enter the city.

“Huh? Why is that?”

“Oh, no. For some reason, it seems like the road is blocked from the campsite in front of me…”

When Captain Lizzy heard the curses that came out reflexively, he raised his head and stared at the same place as me, and Mr. Pimel suddenly ran forward.

“Anyway, I said it was fast.”

Unlike the smiling Lizzy, he was surprised by his speed and returned just as quickly as he left, gasping for breath and explaining the situation as if it was nothing.

“It was nothing special. They were just killing time by checking before passing their campsite. I guess they were just trying to extort some toll.”

But the words that actually came out of his mouth were a very, very serious story.

“Toll?”

What the fuck is this?

Who are they to charge a toll? But unlike me who was shocked, Mr. Pimel just burst into laughter.

“Ah, you, an adventurer, might not know. It’s something nobles often do when they set up camp outside of a city. They find fault with the many supplies coming and going, trying to get something for themselves. It would be worse in their own country, but this is a foreign country, so all they can do is delay time… Don’t you think people who are feeling sorry for something would want to pass quickly by throwing them some small change?”

“Then shouldn’t we prevent them from setting up camp at the crossroads?”

“What is the justification? If you are going to build a camp anyway, wouldn’t it be right to build it on a road that helps the city’s security? If you make the same argument, you will be at a loss for words. If you say, “Are you guys doing this to plunder?”, it is obvious that you will make a fuss, saying that it is an insult to your honor.”

“···Ha, the reason·”

Mr. Pimel and Chief Lizzy shook their heads, saying things like, ‘Anyway, they’re nobles…’ but of course, I couldn’t do that.

How can we just ignore the fact that these bastards, who are in a situation where killing them all wouldn’t be enough, are still acting up without realizing the gravity of the situation and are acting like dogs?

“Yeah, that’s a good excuse.”

I like it too·

I really like it very much

A Word from the Author (Author’s Note)

Did you all have a good holiday?

The writer tried to catch up on the typos that had piled up during his long-awaited break, but ended up falling asleep.

Thanks to that, I was able to turn around my distorted lifestyle to some extent, but looking back, it’s so absurd. I’m just amazed at myself for being able to sleep just by lying down.

Other than that, I gained one new insight:

Fold 3 has a bit of a gap even when closed, so if you accidentally sit on it, it makes a crunching sound and the body becomes unable to open up any further. It’s like a book.
