The Reincarnated Sage ~I Will Forge the Strongest Empire in the Demon Forest!~

A year or so has passed since then.

The goblin village has grown a lot over that time.

A few things have changed.

First, the roads have been paved and stoned.

The farmland has expanded. Non-meroon crops are being grown.

The goblin population is up. I've been finding goblins in trouble outside and welcoming them to our village. The current number of goblins is about 100 in total.

By the way, I've evolved all the new goblins into hobgoblins.

The goblins' clothes have changed as well.

Bellamus went back to the city and bought a bunch of clothes.

Now they are well dressed.

The Orcs' clothes cannot be bought from the humans, so they remain untouched.

I'll make them for you later, Vellums thought.

And the orcs had evolved into high orcs.

They had evolved and grown in size and strength.

Other things were being built, such as new houses, facilities for training, teaching them to write, and making and buying things that were useful.

Among them was a lamp made of light-collecting stone, which helped to keep the house bright at night.

That's about the only thing that has changed in the town.

Fat.

Well, let's go.

Vellums had eaten his breakfast and was about to leave.

A year later, Vellums had grown up in his own way, but he was still small.

"Me too!

Delarosa said cheerfully .

Delarosa had evolved further from hobgoblins to become a magic goblin.

As a magic goblin, the amount of magic power increased greatly. As a result, the types of magic she could use had also increased.

Their horns grew in size, and the color of their horns changed from the reddish-brown color of their skin to blue.

The goblins had all trained and grown stronger, but it was Delarosa who had become the strongest.

Belamus and Delarosa leave the house.

They head to a training camp.

It's a facility where they can practice their archery and swords.

There are targets and scarecrows.

Although melee and archery are not his specialty, he still has some knowledge of them, so he teaches them.

O.K. here's Bellamus. Is Delarosa here too?

When you go to the training camp, a young male hobgoblin calls out to you.

He is Ugo. He's about 15 years old, but he's the best swordsman in the village.

Veraams... Delarosa... Good morning.

The hobgoblin girl who stammers and greets Ugo next to him is Medeiro .

She was modest, but second only to Delarosa in magical ability.

She would be a magical genius, Bellamus had predicted.

'Medeiroda! We're playing magic together today!

A......

Delarosa pulls Medero's hand forcefully away from her.

Medero's magic was getting better not only because he was naturally magical, but also because Delarosa was keeping him company.

'I'm sorry every time.'

Medero seems to enjoy playing with Delarosa. No need to apologize for that.

Yeah. Haven't the other guys arrived yet?

Yeah. I've been training a lot lately. I've been getting a lot of demons from kobolds and such, and they look tired.

Oh, my God. So we'll have to cancel today's training.

Lately, demons have been coming around the goblin village.

We're currently investigating why.

We've had to increase our training because the amount of monsters that come in can be rather ridiculous.

I guess there's no need to cancel the training. I think he's here.

The goblins have come to camp.

There they are. Then we'll stick to our schedule.

We do the training.

It usually consists of simulated battles and target practice.

When the training is over.

"Demon da! It's coming from the south gate!

This again, we all thought.

I'll head to the south gate.

The monster that came this time is a giant killer bee.

They don't speak our language, so we'll kill them as soon as possible.

There weren't many of them this time, so I was able to defeat them all by myself.

However, if there were too many of them, the current magical power of Vellum's is not enough to handle them.

The amount of magic it holds increases quickly when it's low, but as it increases to a certain extent, it increases at a slower rate.

The current magic power of Vellumus hasn't increased as dramatically as it did a year ago.

"Nah, Vellum. Why are there so many demons coming around lately?

I don't know. I'm looking into it now.

Bellamus was investigating the woods near the village.

But they can't find the source.

They hadn't traveled far enough to investigate, so something might be happening far away.

I didn't want to leave the village for too long, so I didn't want to go far, but if there's a monster attack like this, you might as well go.

I hope this isn't a harbinger of something bad to come. ...... Bellamus hoped so.
