Reincarnated as a Farmer Gamer: Rising to the Top with the Evolution of the Weakest Job that Only I Know About!? - 27.1

The next day.

Today, too, I came to the Emblam Dungeon.

Phew… I couldn’t sleep well last night after seeing such a shocking map.

“Kun…?”

Pochi looked at me with a worried expression.

“…Hey, Pochi. I wonder what it feels like to have to marry someone you don’t even like?”

“Woof!”

“Haha… It’s no use asking you, huh? My bad. Alright! Let’s defeat the Minotaurs vigorously today too!”

“Growl!”

After that, Pochi and I hunted down Minotaurs with all our might.

Without knowing how much time had passed, I felt a bit hungry, so I decided to leave the dungeon for a while.

Outside, surprisingly, the sun had begun to set, and I was surprised to realize it was already this late.

At that moment, a man with a pale expression approached me.

“B-Beryl-kun!”

“Hm? Mr. Moose, isn’t it? What brings you all the way here?”

“S-Something terrible has happened!”

Ah, I could tell just by looking at Mr. Moose’s expression.

“It’s Lady Evans, right?”

“Y-Yes…! It seems she’s been kidnapped by someone!”

“Inside the mansion?”

“T-That’s right!”

To go as far as to kidnap her within the mansion, the enemy must be quite skilled.

“They demanded a hefty ransom from the master!”

“I see. Understood. I’ll hurry to rescue Lady Evans too. Do you know where she is?”

“I-I’m not sure… but the ransom drop-off point was supposed to be at a cabin on the outskirts west of the town.”

“I see. Then I’ll go check near the cabin.”

“R-Right! I’ll inform the master!”

“Okay. Thank you.”

I ran at full speed towards the west of Emblam City.

I quickly passed through the main street, then exited through the castle gate.

The area around Emblam City is surrounded by plains, but in the darkness, the city would soon be out of sight.

“Pochi, come here.”

“Woof!”

“Hurry and follow the scent of Lady Evans.”

“Woof!”

Sniffing the air with his nose held high, Pochi turned his face towards the Emblam metropolis.

“Oh, seriously… Guide me. Take me through places where there are no people.”

“Growl!”

Then I followed Pochi.

We easily climbed the city wall using shadow movement, making it seem like nothing had happened.

Shadow movement is quite convenient; you can climb straight up walls and barriers.
