Ch. 11: Encountering after Infiltration   It wasn’t hard for Loren to crawl through the crack. It wasn’t that high, so he had to crawl flat on the ground and the great sword on his back was slightly in the way, but those weren’t big problems to him. Getting Lapis, who still couldn’t move much, … Continue reading Broke Mercenary Chapter 11 →

Ch. 10: Moving from Destination   “Still, don’t you think there’s something abnormal about this cave?” After staying silent on Loren’s back for a while, Lapis suddenly spoke up. Loren, who was running with the help of the magic light Lapis had conjured, looked at her with a face asking her what she was trying … Continue reading Broke Mercenary Chapter 10 →

Ch. 9: Confession after Escape   “Oh yeah, about what happened earlier.” Loren was jogging through the tunnel with Lapis on his back. The sword pressed onto Lapis’ body must have been uncomfortable, as she squirmed around on Loren’s back. But she still couldn’t move her limbs to help herself. “Earlier?” She neared her face … Continue reading Broke Mercenary Chapter 9 →

Ch. 8: Running Away after Collapse   “Guess I’m not getting out of this easily!” There was nowhere to run, being pincered in by the two groups. As Loren decided that the only way out was to cut through them, he heard Oxy finish chanting her spell. “Scatter the sands, bring upon slumber! <<Sleep>>” Based … Continue reading Broke Mercenary Chapter 8 →

Ch. 7: Engaging after Pursuit   It was most likely a trap. That was the thought that kept going through his head. Although goblins had low intelligence, it was hard to believe they were stupid enough to not post anyone to keep watch at the entrance. Even mindless beasts, if they lived in packs, would … Continue reading Broke Mercenary Chapter 7 →

Ch. 6: Chasing after Attack   In a slightly listless atmosphere, Loren’s eyes suddenly turned sharp. Lapis, slightly surprised, watched Loren as he started to reach for the great sword strapped to his back. “Wait! I just heard something!” Naron’s warning rang out a moment after Loren’s sudden action, and everyone tensed up. Loren scanned … Continue reading Broke Mercenary Chapter 6 →

Ch. 5: Giving Up after Recovery   The conversation with Lapis continued until morning. Although Loren thought of switching watch duty with Sarfe at one point, he despised the idea of putting his head into a tent where business was done. He concluded that it would be better if he just continued watch duty until … Continue reading Broke Mercenary Chapter 5 →

Ch. 4: Recovering from Shock   The premonition that Loren felt earlier soon became a reality. It wasn’t exactly from the watch itself though. After parking the carriage on the side of the road, tying up the horses, and eating dinner made from provisions, everyone went to their tents to rest except for Loren, who … Continue reading Broke Mercenary Chapter 4 →

Ch. 89: Meeting after Running   “I can’t help but feel that this isn’t a good situation. What do you think?” Lapis asked him as they ran through the forest, but Loren had too much on his plate to answer her. He was running through a place that was hard to run in and had … Continue reading Broke Mercenary Chapter 89 →

Ch. 3: Departure and Disbelief   The next morning, Loren showed up at the east gate. He had his supply of food in a small cloth bag, his great sword strapped around his back, and wore his battered leather armor. It was not much, but it couldn’t be helped because he had to leave everything … Continue reading Broke Mercenary Chapter 3 →
