How to Live as a Wandering Knight

The ballista had good penetrating power but was quite slow to reload compared to a bow.

Yet, it was frequently used due to its ease of use. It took far less time to master than a bow.

โ€˜But it wouldnโ€™t hurt to learn the bow as well.โ€™

Groups like Johanโ€™s, which moved around in small numbers, benefited from having a variety of skills.

Johan called Gerdolf, who was swinging his sword in the distance.

โ€œGerdolf. Stop swinging your sword and come try shooting a bow.โ€

Gerdolf, though reluctant, came over without complaining and took the bow. This was one of Gerdolfโ€™s strengths.

โ€œPracticing with the bow?โ€

โ€œSuetlg-nim. Are you alright?โ€

โ€œYes. I feel magical energy from that bow.โ€

At Suetlgโ€™s words, Marco blushed and replied.

โ€œYes. My master who gave me this said that as a knight, one must be honorable to pierce the target accurately.โ€

โ€œIt seems to be made from winter-cut vermilion wood mixed with alchemical ingredients Iโ€™m not familiar with. Quite a well-crafted piece. . .โ€

Suetlg was intrigued but showed no further curiosity. The mystery of the arrow flying accurately with more honor was not of interest to Suetlg.

โ€œNatural talent is essential for outstanding archers, but can it be taught?โ€

โ€œBetter to shoot a bow than do nothing, right?โ€

โ€œWell, thatโ€™s true too.โ€

Johan asked the mercenaries if they could shoot a bow. Only two or three knew how.

โ€œKhan, did you use a bow too?โ€

โ€œLearned it from my oldman when I was young. For secretly hunting wild animals.โ€

Goran and Khan were mercenaries who had joined the group unexpectedly, thanks to Johanโ€™s sudden invitation during a restful moment.

Johanโ€™s decision to take them to Duke Brduheโ€™s domain was unexpected, especially considering there were more experienced soldiers available.

Goran was slightly worried, but the anticipated conflict did not occur.

Johanโ€™s selected mercenaries were all tight-lipped and loyal, not the type to belittle or quarrel with unfamiliar faces.

While the mercenaries and knights were practicing with bows, Suetlg spoke up.

โ€œAnyway, I feel somewhat guilty. We could have traveled more comfortably.โ€

Noble travels usually followed ancient Empire roads or at least connected towns and cities. There was no need for nobles to camp outdoors.

However, the current party was moving along a river, necessitating camping outdoors for a few days.

โ€œItโ€™s not a problem. Wizard-nim.โ€

The knights spoke as if it didnโ€™t bother them.

Unless they were high-ranking nobles, all of them were knights from poor families. They were very accustomed to sleeping outdoors, exposed to the dew.

This was even more true for mercenaries. . .

โ€œWhat are you doing?!โ€

โ€œ?โ€

The group was puzzled by the sight of a person running towards them, their face flushed with anger. Since the person was alone and without any significant armament, none of them were tense.

โ€œDo you know where you are?!โ€

โ€œIsnโ€™t this the land of the Balpa family?โ€

The gamekeeper flinched at Johanโ€™s response, which was delivered without a change in expression. From his accent, it seemed he might be a noble.

โ€œE-Excuse me, but where are you from?โ€

โ€œFrom the Jarpen family. And this person is of the bloodline of the Abner family.โ€

โ€œIโ€™m so sorry! This lowly one has committed a crime worthy of death!โ€

The gamekeeper prostrated himself. He had thought these rowdy mercenaries, shooting their bows, were poaching in the lordโ€™s forest.

โ€œWhy are such esteemed individuals here. . .?โ€

โ€œWould a knight seek comfort?โ€

Marco answered on their behalf. The other knights nodded in agreement.

โ€œI will guide you to the lord!โ€

The knights looked troubled. Rejecting such an offer could be seen as an insult. Suetlg said it was fine.

โ€œItโ€™s not necessary to stay by the river. Moving to a more comfortable location to receive hospitality doesnโ€™t seem bad after weโ€™ve been here long enough.โ€
