Reincarnated As An Ogre, I’m Going To Enjoy Life In This Other World! - Chapter 9

After putting on the pants, I finally set foot in the village.

“First, let’s go see the village chief.”

Led by Elma, I walked deeper into the village, feeling uncomfortable as people’s gazes gathered on me. Eventually, she guided me to the front of a large house.

“Please wait here, I’ll go get the village chief.”

After a few moments, a white-haired old man about 70 years old appeared from inside the house, leaning on a cane.

“So, you’re the unique monster of the ogre species who saved Elma?”

“Ah, yes, my name is Kingil.”

I gave a slight bow and answered.

“My name is Rob, and I’m the village chief of Ritt Village.”

The elderly man who introduced himself as Rob spoke clearly and decisively, and despite his appearance, his posture exuded authority.

“I also heard you took down the Bloody Horn?”

“Ah, yes, these are its tusks.”

I showed the two tusks to the village chief.

“Oh, this is definitely its tusks. Thank you, Lord Kingil. That beast has been a thorn in the side of our village for the past few years.”

“No need to thank me, it was just a lucky accident.”

“Hmm. So, its body is still in the forest?”

“Yes, it was too large, so I just left it there.”

“I see.”

The village chief turned to Elma and said.

“Elma, could you go and call a few of the men from the village?”

“Understood, village chief.”

Elma ran as soon as she was asked to.

After a while, Elma returned with a few men in tow

“Everyone’s, this Lord Kingil has defeated that Bloody Horn!”

As the village chief said this in a loud voice, the men around started to buzz with conversation.

“I hear its body is still in the forest. Please, everyone, go bring it back. Lord Kingil, could I ask you to guide them?”

“Ah, yes, I’ll take care of it.”

The village chief nodded and returned inside. Once he was gone, the men gathered around me all at once.

“You’re the one who took down that massive boa?”

“You’ve saved us. We were really troubled by that thing.”

“I guess ogres really are strong, huh?”

In my past life, I had built walls around myself and tried to keep my distance from others, so I wasn’t used to situations like this, and I found myself struggling to react.

“Ah, sorry, sorry. It must be hard when everyone starts talking to you at once.”

“Ah… no…”

“Anyway, can you guide us to where that thing is?”

“Yes.”

I went back with the men to the place where I had taken down the boar, and its body was still lying there unchanged.

“Whoa, it really is a Bloody Horn. It’s still as big as ever.”

“How the heck did you manage to defeat something like this?”

“How did you take it down?”

“Ah… Well, I grabbed its tusks and slammed it headfirst into this tree.”

I explained while using hand gestures.

“Wow, so Unique Monsters can do stuff like that too?”

“You’re able to throw around something this gigantic?”

The men spoke in awe, expressing their admiration.

“Alright, let’s carry it back.”

“I’ll tie the rope, you grab the other end.”

As the men began preparing to carry the boar, I spoke up.

“Um, would you like me to carry it?”

“What?”

“I’ll carry this to the village.”

“That’s great, but are you sure you can do it?”

“You said you threw it earlier, but can you actually carry it?”

“I think I can handle it, probably.”

For some reason, I had a strange confidence that I could carry it.

“Alright!”

I hoisted the Bloody Horn onto my back, the ground slightly caved under its weight. The men around me murmured in awe.

“This is unbelievable…”

While I could feel the weight, it was no worse than carrying a backpack stuffed with textbooks back in my college days, so walking wasn’t a problem.

“Alright! Let’s go!”

I began walking toward the village.
