Defense Manager Luanda

- You cannot proceed because you have too many items. -

[Luanda]

Who are you?

Ah! Ah! Ah!

I've heard that they hire adventurers because they don't have enough hands to defend the village. I guess that's you?

By the way, haven't I seen you somewhere? Your face looks strangely familiar.

Oops, I'm not in a position to compare similar faces... We're twins. Ha ha ha

Should I say hello? Nice to meet you. I'm Luanda, the defense manager of this cave.

For simple quests, we have prepared a request board, so you can find them and report them to me.

The quest itself doesn't have to be difficult, as you just have to go around the cave and deal with the monsters or bring the byproducts of the monsters.

Since you've been hired by the village, I'd like you to work hard and lighten the burden a bit. It's really hard these days. Please.

Then have a good time. Adventurer.

What's up, adventurer?

Told Luanda about the strange shimmering you had witnessed.

A strange shimmer? As you said, it's a really strange phenomenon.

I've lived in the village for a long time, but it seems like a phenomenon I've never heard of. I'm guessing, but I think it's just started happening recently.

I don't live alone in the village, and if someone had seen it, it would have been rumored, but hearing it for the first time would make my guess clear.

It could be dangerous, so if you find it, why don't you avoid it? There's no need to take a risk.

Reported to Luanda and gained experience.

Told Luanda about three young men you met and talked to.

Uh.. huh?! You saw me and young men who look like like my brothers.

It seems like it happened a long time ago. Unlike Mao, I don't have a very good memory.

I vaguely remember it. I did warn a stranger I met before I went hunting with my brothers.

It's not uncommon to see strangers in town, so my memory is hazy, but I remember it.

It's interesting. If what you're saying is true, doesn't that mean you've been talking to me in the past?

Ah! Come to think of it, do you remember the first time we met? Didn't I say I was used to being an adventurer?

As expected, I don't think it was a bad feeling. I really can't believe it. An adventurer who met me in the past...

That sounds like something similar could happen in the future, right?

I apologize. Deep down, I felt that it was annoying for adventurers to talk to me. Now, I'll ask you first.

If you ever go through something similar, please let me know. I'm begging you.

Told him about Karoo and Asudem.

Puhahaha I think you came to see the place where Hyung-nim and sister-in-law are dating.

Oh my gosh.. that place is where my brother and sister-in-law often went on dates.

My brother might think it's a secret place only he knows, but it's a place everyone in the village knows.

It's quite a popular spot among village lovers. It's quiet and a good place for a date.

Recently, I haven't had much to laugh about because of various things, but thanks to you, I laughed out loud. I look forward to the next story.

Told Luanda about who was painting murals in the cave.

Have you ever met me when I was painting the mural? I don't remember, but...

I think I can tell you why I painted the mural.

It's not much of a secret, but each of my brothers has a mysterious ability.

In the case of Karoo-hyung, he has the ability to see accurately even from a distance..

Maknae Maru has an excellent memory that never forgets what she has seen and the ability to read her opponent's mind..

I'm not always correct, but I can see into the future. Ah! I have more abilities than that.

I can see people's good and evil energy. In the case of adventurers...

I can feel the good energy that can't be touched. That's why I feel more bitter.

Coming back to the original story, the reason I'm painting the mural is because one day I dreamed of a village burning down.

Many monsters have come to town and people are crying out in pain because of it...

After the hellish dream, I saw myself recording the day's events on a mural in a cave.

Haha, don't worry too much. The dream hasn't happened yet.

Do you know? If I paint the mural in advance, will the future I saw in my dream change?

An adventurer I haven't seen in my dreams is helping us, so I'm sure we can change it.

Told Luanda about Mao, who was training alone.

Mao guy... you've been thinking about a lot of things.

Brother Karu lives separately from his sister-in-law, and we still live together, but I don't think he cared too much about his sister.

It's said that I lost my mind after having a painful dream, but somehow my anxiety...

Looks like he's been infested with Mao. Maybe because of his abilities, he's often swayed by other people's emotions...

He... training to become stronger... even if he doesn't become stronger... he's still enough...

Thank you. Thanks to you, I found out about Mao's troubles.

Told Luanda about someone who was taking something from the cave.

You saw that too. I think we've talked about it before. In my dream, I saw monsters coming into town.

And in preparation for that time, the village warriors evacuated the elderly and weak to this place, and they stored supplies here and there in the cave.

These are literally emergency items. It would be perfect if they were not used, but...

You don't know how the world works. If you find something, just ignore it.

Told Luanda about the story of meeting the villagers and the village chief.

You really came to see what happened a while ago. It wasn't as much damage as you saw in your dream, but it was a lot of damage.

When I think of that day, my heart hurts. All of a sudden, when my brothers were away...

Still, the village chief, the best elder in the village, seems to have suffered less damage because he was calm. Thanks for the story.

Told Luanda about the story of meeting the brothers who ran somewhere in a hurry.

You must have seen the day my brothers and I came back from hunting. There was a big disaster in the village and it was the next day.

Kuh.. If me and my brothers hadn't emptied the village... the people wouldn't have been taken by the monsters...

If so... my sister-in-law also...

I know. It's not because of me and my brothers.. but.. that day.. we.. .. .. it's just a pity

You've shown me, adventurer, something I wouldn't have seen. I'm just here to tell you what I remember...

Told Luanda about the story of seeing Karu and Asudem.

... ... ...

Ka.. Karu hyungnim.. hyungnim

That's the reason why you shut yourself up in the west cave.

I feel resentful of myself for not being able to help with the village defense.

Your heart... I can't even imagine your sister-in-law's... whoo... your sorrow...

When the situation here is sorted out, I will look for my older brother. He must be alone in pain and sorrow.

My heart hurts like this too, but if you know the youngest who struggles because of his abilities... I'll have to prepare. Thank you, adventurer.

Told Luanda about stories of unknown people.

It sounds like a conversation between a Wootan or Megalith monster targeting the village.

Follow a strong leader? Recently, I felt that the movements of these guys are disturbingly orderly...

It seems that a monster has appeared to lead them.

It's embarrassing. Even now, all we can do is block it.

This is not the time to be sad. We need to build more defenses and take other measures.

A strong leader is also a problem... but a power that has been handed down as a legend? This is a story I've never heard of before.

I'm guessing this is the reason why the monsters are attacking the village, but I'll have to tell the chief and investigate.

The story you just told me was really helpful. Thank you, adventurer.

It's a situation where even one request is regrettable, but

Each and every request is precious. Thank you again and again.

You worked hard.

For quests that are recruiting in town, there is a separate request board.

Ah! Watch your mind. The location is in the middle of the battlefield, so I installed it in the corner for safety reasons.

There are cases where you cannot complete a request on the bulletin board right away, but there is no specific time limit, so don't be in a hurry.

Adventurer, you are really curious about everything.

The Luanda Caves are strategically the only way out north of town.

That's why we're defending against monster attacks here.

Ah! Did you notice? Yes, my name is Luanda too. The village elders say...

The triplets are said to have been named Karu, Luanda, and Mao after the village caves.

My neighborhood friends teased me a bit when I was young, but I don't have any complaints about the name.

I heard they were named after the guardians of the village. I'm rather proud of them.

It's very puzzling to us too. If we knew why, we'd have put everything away.

This isn't a town with plenty of food, and I don't think there's any particular reason for monsters to target it.

But what can we do? We're just living here, and the monsters keep coming, so we have to live while blocking them.
