The Elven King's Forest

I would wager they'll come from the cliffs.

Something's coming.

A lot of them.

O merciful Earth Mother,

please protect us, the weak, with the powers of the earth.

Protection!

I-If this is the extent of it, we should be...

Goblins!

Take the rudder.

Understood!

Why, you little...

I don't know if we can finish them off. Loosen the heads on your arrows.

That's really crafty...

Hup!

Tch.

Ah, a spear launcher?

That's quite nostalgic.

You know what this is?

It was used quite commonly among the warriors in my village.

Is that gonna reach them?

That won't be a problem.

In that case...

'Tis time for a banquet, undine. Now, come sing, dance, and play!

Control Spirit!

I don't seem to get along with this one too well, so I can't increase the speed much.

This is plenty.

This is basically leaving it up to luck.

We don't know how many there are, so we can't finish them off.

Sir Goblin Slayer,

would it be all right if our goal was to escape rather than slaughter?

Of course it's not all right. But...

We can discuss that after we're through this.

How's our defense?

I can still... hold up. I'll try another layer.

Thanks.

Wh-What's that?

They're trying to sink our raft!

Ugh! They're so noisy and in the way!

I'm gonna have the undine lift the raft, so you keep shootin' some arrows or something.

What do you mean, "or something"?!

So they learned from the lock.

This is basically the same as stepping into their nest.

O merciful Earth Mother...

O merciful Earth Mother, please, by your revered hand, cleanse us of our corruption.

Purify!

Wow...

Now's our chance. Please hurry.

Eventually, I'm going to hunt down their nest and kill them all. Now, it's your turn.

Understood!

Bao Long, honored ancestor, Cretaceous ruler, I borrow now thy terror!

I didn't think we were going to wear these so soon.

I mean, if we knew we were gonna get that wet,

we should've worn them to begin with.

I don't understand going into the water with any clothes on.

Oh?

I do not understand the appeal of skin without scales,

but I do believe all of you look lovely.

Really? That's good, I guess.

I guess there's not much point in saying much about how these lasses look now.

Yeah. I'm even a bit jealous.

Oh, what do you think?

I don't really understand it. I think it looks good on all of you.

I think you need to learn a bit more about how girls feel.

I see.

Well, I think Goblin Slayer is fine just the way he is.

Not to mention... being stared at too long is... embarrassing.

So you just need us to catch some fish from the river?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Adventurers sure are amazing.

You come to places like this all the time, don't you?

I wouldn't say all the time...

Yup. Usually, we're covered in gross, slimy stuff and stinking. It's awful.

But this is for my sister's wedding, so I need to make sure I'm nice and clean.

I thought about that a lot when I was little.

Is it something you've always wanted?

Er, no, I mean...

Um, I wasn't talking about being an adventurer.

Oh, you mean a princess?

Don't say it out loud!

Or did you mean a bride?

Don't make me say it out loud!

Hey, that's cold!

But being a bride does sound lovely.

Isn't it a bit dangerous to let the lasses frolic on their own?

I'll just need to protect them.

And I want her to be able to relax since we're going to her home.

After all is said and done, Sir Goblin Slayer is like Maiasaura.

What?

It means that, despite appearances, you have a tendency to worry about others.

Is that something so impressive?

I'm not impressive at all.

Well, even mithril wouldn't know its own worth.

Whatever the case may be, we are already in the land of the elves.

I don't think the goblins will try anything too reckless.

You really think so?

I also thought that.

Is that so? Well, anyway, have a drink.

Just make sure you don't black out.

Okay, one more!

Take that!

Yeah.

Take that!

Stop that!

Come on! You're gonna scare the fish away!

Are we close now?

Yup. We're probably right on the border of the forest and the village.

They might actually find us first.

I bet an elven bride is super pretty.

Well, yeah!

My sister's beautiful! She is a high elf, after all!

Well, so are you.

I do hope they will welcome my kind.

I need to properly greet your sister, as well.

And tell her how much help you've been.

My sister's fine... but my brother's another story.

You have a brother, too?

I mean my cousin. My sister's groom.

He's always been in love with my sister, but he'd always try and act high and mighty.

But since they're getting married, they must've come to understand each other.

I mean, it was always obvious.

I have no idea what she even sees in him, though.

Sometimes, when elves court each other, they sing.

He tried to sing about his supposed heroic feats,

so I smacked him and made some corrections.

Oho, did you now, Lady Archer?

I let my sister deal with him.

Are you serious?

Totally!

Homeland... That sounds nice.

Well, yeah. That's where my heart is.

And there are goblins near there.

Wake up! Where do you think you are?

Oh, an elf.

That's right. You are within elven territory.

Can you even fight with that sword?

Against goblins, yes.

Oh? A barbarian and a dwarf, as well?

I am a lizardman.

Adventurers, eh? You must've been the ones fighting the goblins yesterday.

Yeah.

We took care of the remnants that you didn't finish off yesterday.

I have questions.

The arrows that wounded the goblins belong to our kind.

But I can't imagine that girl would shoot a pathetic arrow like this.

Tell me what you've done with her. Depending on your answer...

Is this the one who tried to win a lass with his heroic feats instead of a love letter?

It does indeed seem like the lad who elaborated his tales for his love.

H-How dare— Both of you! Where did you hear of that?!

The girl you're looking for is right over there.

Daughter of Starwind, are you here?!

Huh?

Wha?

Huh? Elder Brother? Oh, you came to fetch us.

I am sorry to summon you back here when you've just started your journey.

Really? I mean, it's still been some years.

It's nice to see you again, Elder Brother.

You reek of humans now.

My homeland is also impressive, but the land of the elves is quite a sight.

It's been growing ever since the age of the gods.

Mortals may be able to enter, but they wouldn't be able to leave.

But I never thought that the Orcbolg I kept hearing about was someone like you.

I have no idea what others think of me.

More importantly, what's the deal with those goblins?

Well, it's been rather hot lately,

and those creatures seem to come out in droves when it's hot.

Lately?

For the last ten years or so.

It's been like this ever since there was a fuss over the dark gods recently.

I see. Recently...

Perhaps the elves don't care much about the goblins?

I'm sure it's more of a matter of scale than danger.

I mean, we're hearing from the people who actually witnessed the event.

Witnessed what?

The battle of the gods.

Evil spirits, dragons, dark gods, demon lords,

and all kinds of awful creatures from another dimension...

So in comparison, I'm sure goblins aren't a big deal.

I see...

Yeah.

I have something more pressing on my mind.

It appears as though The One That Stops the Waters

is getting closer to the village lately.

What's that?

An ancient thing that lives in the forest. We've been told to not lay a hand on it.

Since it lives in a different territory from ours, it rarely shows itself, but...

Does it actually exist?

I've seen its tracks many times.

Grandfather claims he saw the creature itself when he was young.

Uh, and how long ago was that?!

This is truly amazing...

Yeah.

The capital was lovely itself, but...

This is quite impressive indeed.

Quite. My home is also in the forest, but this looks quite different.

I welcome all of you to my home!

This is nice.

It is.

I've known a few elf adventurers over the years,

but this is the first time I've been invited to their home.

So, what are we going to do now?

Well, we have a bath and lunch ready for you. What would you like to do?

I'm going to unpack. Goblins may show up at any moment.

Then I'll stay behind, too. My sister might show up, anyway.

Why don't we get some food while the lasses bathe?

That sounds like a good idea.

Make sure you actually eat and take a bath, too, Goblin Slayer.

I will.

Hey, Orcbolg. What are you doing?

Do you remember the goblin champion?

The one from Water Town a year ago, right?

How could I ever forget?

This is just preparation should we ever face one of those or something similar again.

Huh...

How'd you even think of making something so bulky?

Well, it's not sold anywhere.

That's not what I mean.

If it were up to me... I'd do this.

What is that?

Look! If you do this, it makes a sound!

And what good does that do?

It's fun!

Wh-Whoa! Elder Sister! What, why?!

What do you mean? I came to greet you.

More importantly, what's that doing out?

Er, I, uh... It's not what you think.

First of all, you—

Oh, my. Pardon me.

It's fine.

So... You must be Orcbolg.

That's what she calls me.

You are far more dashing than I've heard in songs.

Songs are songs. I'm just me.

My... Thank you for always looking after my little sister.

She's not causing you too much trouble, is she?

No. She's always helping us out.

If you find any other more capable ranger, hunter, or scout while you're here,

please feel free to cast my sister aside.

It's not just about skill.

Oh, she's—

I know.

Hey, uh, Orcbolg?!

I killed them.

I killed them all.

I see. So he was the one who saved her from the ogres.

It wasn't just Orcbolg, though.

I'm aware of that.

You saved her. You and your friends.

Well, I need to prove what I can do every once in a while.

In that case... haven't you done enough?

What do you mean?

Kuchukahatari.

Are you telling me to stop being an adventurer?

You're putting yourself in danger

and only earning a small sum of money in return, aren't you?

Well, yeah...

The lizardman is one thing,

but I don't think it's a good idea for you to be associating with dwarves.

People might talk.

Yeah, there's definitely nothing to worry about there.

And then there's him.

Orcbolg?

Yes. The songs made him sound like a hero...

He doesn't look like one to me, though.

Well, songs are songs.

Why are you with a man like him?

Why? I mean...

I don't really know. Maybe it's because I can't just leave him alone,

and he never bores me. That's it.

And that's why you still continue to slay goblins?

Well, he's also helping out as vanguard on our adventures.

You know what's going to happen. In that case...

We all just have one life, Elder Sister.

Elves and humans. Same goes for dwarves and lizardmen, too.

We're all the same in that sense.

Could it be that you...

Elder Sister, go inside!

What happened?

Don't go throwing other people's weapons around!

Goblins?

I'm not sure. Take care of my sister.

Right.

Stay down and head into the room.

A-Are you suggesting I crawl on the floor?!

Oh, is that an elephant?

No!
