I Was the Heroine, and in the Sequel, Even Though I’m a Mob, All of My Stats Are Maxed Out

Some Things Are Bound to Happen When Traveling 1

A few days later, in the late afternoon, I was on an ogre hunt with Theo and Dirk.

“What a nice weather! It’s a perfect day for ogre hunting.”

“What kind of a day is that?”

Ogres were vicious creatures that attacked human villages, stole money and goods, and ate people. Therefore, when a sighting was reported, the knights were supposed to immediately go to the village to subjugate them promptly.

And this time, I was invited by Theo, who had gotten word that there was a horde of ogres, along with Dirk. Incidentally, the ogre’s core could be sold for quite a high price, so it was a very big income for me as well.

Frankly, an ogre wouldn’t be difficult with Theo and Dirk. Even so, Alvin-sama said he was against it and wouldn’t budge.

“Nina, you don’t have to do that anymore. I’ll send the knights, so you can relax and do whatever you want. There is no need to go to dangerous places.”

“It’s all right! Theo and Dirk are with me.”

“…. Nina.”

“If I don’t move my body or use magic once in a while, I might be in trouble if an emergency happened.”

“I’m here for you in case of emergencies.”

Alvin-sama was busy with his official duties and couldn’t move immediately if something happened, so he seemed to be worrying even more.

“You know, you used to let me go to the troll’s den alone. And now, I’m still alive and well.”

“…. I’m sorry, Nina. You’re still mad about that. I was really out of my mind back then. If I could go back to before, I would cut off one toe from each hand and foot─”

“I’m sorry, I don’t mind at all, it was my fault, please don’t worry about it, I’m really sorry!”

I was hoping to get permission to go by bringing up a story from the past, but it ended in failure. I would never say anything unnecessary again.

Eventually, Alvin-sama put on a sad expression.

“I want you to do what you want, I want you to live happily, but I don’t want you to be in danger. I want you to be within my reach at all times.”

“Alvin-sama…..”

To be honest, I didn’t have a hobby of wanting to defeat an ogre. However, if I was going to live in this world for a long time to come, I couldn’t just be protected by Alvin-sama all the time.

I was sure that things would be fine with Theo and Dirk.

After that, I continued to argue with Alvin-sama, and in the end, I got his permission, promising to use the magic tool for teleportation if I felt any danger and not to leave Theo or Dirk’s side.

We then visited the forest where the herd was said to be, and we just kept on defeating them. By the way, an ogre was a C-rank.

“Wow, amazing…”

Theo and Dirk were no longer the two people I knew back then. They had become much stronger.

I was taken aback by the sight of them, but I was determined not to be outdone, so I got back into fighting.

Eventually, the ogre was no longer visible in the forest, and it was time to split up and search for the rest.

“Hey, Nina! There’s one going that way!”

“Got it!”

Theo’s voice stopped me in my tracks, and I prepared myself for the approaching ogre.

Immediately, I saw a giant ogre nearly 5 meters tall in front of me tearing down the trees around it and roaring.

Judging by its size and the jewelry and other gold items wrapped around its body, it must be the leader of the herd. It seemed to have noticed my presence, and it raised the corner of its mouth into a sly grin.
