Several days had passed after that. I acted like usual, in the daytime I am a Heart Family employee. At night I’m living a double life to hunt goblins to take their souls while using my Glutton skill.
Also, I was anxious about Rafal’s group. I have staked out many times on the luxury stores where I had witnessed them. However, they haven’t shown their appearance in the shop. Most likely they were always changing their gathering places. But, why? I don’t know their reason as the time flew by.
I could have informed this matter to Roxy, although reporting information about them plotting to do something would have zero value . She should already be suspecting that Rafal’s group would do something bad. The important part was the content.
There were no clouds in the night sky tonight, it’s a splendid night for hunting. The Warriors brought their weapons into the Goblin Prairie and the Hobgoblin Forest.
While keep repeating that, the worried voices about my existence among the Warriors were gradually growing.
I had killed ten goblins, and when I was resting, there was a scream that came from the grass.
[Lich is here! The Corpse has appeared, everyone run away!]
The bar shopkeeper said because the time period when The Corpse appeared was around midnight, there was no impact yet to the logistical distribution. However, if the rumour spread outside the Royal Capital, the story would be different. If the quantity stagnated, the purchasing price will rise, which may put pressure on the management of the bar.
I apologized to the shopkeeper in my mind, I was waiting for the Holy Knight-sama to make an appearance.

[You looked gloomy, Fate, do you not like coming to the territory…?]
She looked at me with doubtful eyes. Was I really showing such an uninterested face earlier.
Every year when she returned to the territory, Roxy harvested the grapes with the people there. It was one of the few events where she could interact with the people within the territory. From the time we got out from the carriage, I felt excited because I was being highly taken care of .
Apart from the wine, being able to contribute various agricultural products to the Kingdom, it was said to be the pride of the Heart family.
When I distorted my eyebrow, Roxy laughed while she put her hands to her mouth.
As an opponent, they surely were a considerably troublesome monster.
When I was thinking about it, my stomach felt hungry.
Guuuu….
[Fate, what’s the matter? Did you get hungry? You just ate a little while ago]
I tried to deceive her with wry smile.
