Reincarnation Paradise: Epidemic Doctor

Chapter 17 Pre-war Mobilization [-]
Early morning, pastures outside town.

The first ray of sunshine in the morning illuminates the vast pasture, and the breeze gently blows over the pasture, carrying the fragrance of green grass in the air.

The dew on the pasture reflected the glory of the rising sun, and everything seemed peaceful and beautiful.

Goblin Slayer began to check the fence around the farm as usual, wading through the dense grass, checking the border between the pasture and the forest.

I saw that the open space at the junction was messy, and the ground was covered with dense footprints.

……

Sunlight pours into the kitchen through the glass, illuminating the whole room.

The wooden cooking table is filled with various ingredients and condiments.

Karona wore a pair of smoky gray denim overalls and a white long-sleeved shirt, with short pink-brown hair, showing off her youthful vitality.

She stood in front of the spacious cooking table, humming softly in her mouth, skillfully handling the ingredients with a light and skillful technique.

She washes the fresh vegetables, cuts them into even pieces, and throws them into the hot pot.While frying, she injected her own special seasoning to make the dish more flavorful, while paying attention to the cheese that was cooking in the pot.The flame danced, making a soft burning sound, and the sweetness of milk filled the kitchen.

The kitchen is filled with mouth-watering food aromas, which makes Karona feel sincerely proud.She cooked every dish with passion, her eyes focused and gentle, thinking that after a while Bunet (Goblin Slayer) would finish inspecting the ranch and then they could eat, with a gentle smile on her face.

When a plate of colorful fruit salad was laid out, Karona tasted it with a smile, making sure it tasted delicious and perfect.Then she started preparing for the next dish.

There was a sudden sound of footsteps behind her. Karona looked back and saw that Burnett had returned, with a hint of joy in her voice.

"Good morning, wait a minute, I'll make breakfast right away."

"Run away." Burnett looked at the childhood sweetheart in front of him, and said without a trace of warmth.

"Eh? Why?"

Burnet's words filled Karona with doubts, but she knew that Burnet would never say something like this for nothing, so she asked cautiously.

"What's wrong? So suddenly..."

"Footprints Found"

"It's a goblin"

"But, can we knock them down?" Karona remained calm on the surface, suppressing the fear in her heart, and asked, "If it were you."

In her perception, Burnett would always deal with goblins.

"No." Hearing Burnett's answer, Karona could no longer hide the fear in her heart, and her voice trembled unnaturally.

Burnett then replied: "Even if there are 100 goblins, as long as I'm in the cave, I can win. No matter what method I use, I can win."

"But there are 10 goblins who came to investigate. It is obvious that there is a leader among them."

"Is it the big goblin, or the shaman? No, judging from the scale, I'm afraid it's..."

"King of Goblins [Goblin Ruler]"

"The time of the attack is either today or tomorrow night. There is no time to ask the princes for help. More than a hundred goblins will attack here."

"The... group of goblins." Karona's voice trembled slightly, and her voice was full of fear. She thought of her hometown that was attacked by goblins in her childhood, and her parents and villagers who died tragically.

"Why...are there goblins here..."

"I guess they want to use this place as a stronghold to attack towns."

"I'm not a platinum-level adventurer, nor a...brave." Burnett lowered his head slightly, his clenched fingers turned white. "To face more than 100 monsters in the field, I don't have enough manpower and strength. I can't win."

Karona looked seriously at Bunet, who had a life-long goal of killing goblins, and said slowly: "So you told me to run away?"

"Yes."

"Is it too late now?" There was a hint of sadness in Karona's voice.

"Yes."

Karona slowly walked up to Bonet and looked at Bonet seriously.

"it is good."

"Have you decided?"

"Yeah." Karona took a deep breath, her eyes filled with apology. "I'm sorry, I'm not going to run away, because you plan to stay, right?"

Looking at Burnett who looked a little surprised, Karona covered her mouth and chuckled, "Look, it really is."

"From before, I stopped talking when I was in trouble!"

Burnett met Karona's gaze and slightly turned his head away.

"It's not as simple as just dying."

"Well, that's right." Carona replied calmly.

"I saw everything. After all, if you can be rescued, even if you are alive, your heart is already dead!"

"So run away!"

Karona's body trembled slightly and she shouted loudly: "So I said, I don't want it!"

Her mouth was slightly raised, showing a smile, and the tears fell from her eyes like pearls on the line.

"Because...I don't want to experience it a second time"

He gently hammered Bunet's armor with his weak fist, and said in a trembling voice: "You will be homeless again."

"And... look! Even if you evacuate, the livestock, cattle and sheep will be gone. Right, won't it be the same after that..."

Carona felt the hand that was holding her heart, and began to hold her soft heart hard. The pain made her unable to breathe. How much she wished that the man in front of her would not go out to take risks again, but she also knew that Burnet had a crush on Gob Lin's hatred will never be forgotten, and he has no choice but to try his best to keep him.

"That's it."

"Well, I'm really sorry. I also know that I am very willful."

"Don't make that look."

Bunet looked at the girl in front of him, with a sad smile on his face. Tears flowed out of his eyes unconsciously, flowing down his cheeks, leaving a tear trail.

"I'll do everything I can."

Then he turned around and walked out.The only sound left in the room was Karona's soft sobs.

"You must protect girls..." Bunnet paused for a moment outside the door, recalling what his sister had said.

"Hey, at least say hello before leaving. That child is a good child. She has grown into a good child, so don't let her cry." Karona's uncle leaned against the wall and said to Burnett with his arms folded .

"I will try my best." Burnett bowed slightly after hearing this, then turned and walked towards the town.

The morning sun shone on his armor, reflecting the light, but his back looked a little lonely.

"I hate you for that!"

……

After a deep sleep, Ye Yi lazily got up from the bed, washed briefly, and headed to the guild.He knew that tonight would be his last battle in the world of trials.

The guild was buzzing with people, and the adventurers were talking about their experiences and commissions.

At this time, the figure in armor and helmet pushed open the gate of the guild, and walked straight to the front of the spearman.

Seeing his love rival, Eric, who was drinking, felt a little unhappy and said in a bad tone: "Goblin Slayer? What, you are still alive? What's the matter?"

Listening to the conversation here, the lizard man priest, dwarf, and elf archer on the second floor all cast their eyes at the same place.

"I'm sorry, please listen to me. I want to ask you something."

The adventurers on the scene were surprised when they heard Goblin Slayer's words.

"Goblin Slayer wants to ask someone for help?"

"Isn't that guy walking alone?"

"No, I've teamed up with a lot of people recently."

"is it?"

Burnett continued: "The goblin group will attack, and the location will be the pasture outside the town. It will probably be tonight, and the number is unknown."

At this time, some adventurers said disdainfully: "What, it really is a Goblin."

"Isn't the goblin group very common?"

……

"Judging from the footprints of the scouts, there should be [Dominators]. That is to say, at least 100 will come."

After hearing Goblin Slayer's words, everyone was surprised and started talking.

"100?"

"There is [Dominator]?!"

"really?"

"No way?"

"what is that?"

"what's up?"

Listening to everyone's words, Stuart was puzzled and asked: "What is [The Dominator]?"

"I don't know?" Erica beside her was also puzzled.

Goblin Slayer explained: "[The Dominator] is a mutant with special command power, and belongs to the highest level among Goblins. The group dominated by that guy will attack immediately, and there is no time."

"It's okay if we're in a cave, but if we're fighting in the field, I'm short of manpower alone."

Burnett bowed to the crowd: "I hope everyone can help me, please!"

"What should I do?" A swordsman asked his companion beside him.

"Are you asking me?"

"Goblin?"

"It's better to do it yourself."

"I'm not going."

"Me too, and those guys are dirty as hell."

Theodosia Electra (elven archer) standing on the second floor suddenly blushed when she heard everyone's tone of rejection, and her hand holding the railing continued to exert strength.

"Hey! Have you misunderstood something?"

"This is the Adventurer's Guild, and we are adventurers." Eric glanced at Burnett, and then said in a beating voice: "There is no obligation to help you! Go and issue a commission! In other words, we need a reward. "

"That's right." He turned his head and said to the adventurers behind him.

The crowd cheered.

"That's right!"

"We are adventurers! How can we risk our lives to help you work in vain?"

Selumia just chuckled after hearing Eric's words and stopped paying attention.

Theodosia Electra was very angry when she heard the adventurer Han Xin's words.

"What are you talking about?"

Just when she was about to jump off, someone called her from behind.A large scaled hand lifted her up.

"Long-eared one, if you go and speak for him now, things will become more troublesome." The dwarf Ugo said helplessly, holding his forehead.

Lizardman priest Zdenek Kukar, who was carrying Theodosia Electra, also advised: "I understand how you feel now, but it's better to wait for now."

Theodosia Elettri struggled in the air, shouting, "Let me go!"

Melissa Klein (the counter lady) was looking at Goblin Slayer worriedly, then turned to look for the guild leader.

"Well, you're right."
