Background
This is a story you should have seen somewhere--the village of Carne continued to recover with the help of the goblins summoned by the village girl Enri. However, new signs of incidents appearing before Enri as she enters the large forest to collect herbs, which are a valuable source of income.

Summary
Carne Village which was attacked by knights and saved by Ainz Ooal Gown. The situation in the village has calmed down for the time being, but scars of the attack are still visible. Enri and her sister Nemu see the chieftain and several of the villagers gathering in the square talking about the future and the possibility of future raids Enri is shocked and worries if there are signs of another attack on their village. But the chieftain states that to be not the case, but there has been a big shadow near the village and rumors of another attack are spreading in their community. This news distresses the adults and Enri, though the latter ties to keep a positive attitude to her sister so she isn't worried. The two return to their home, Enri tries to be firm in the situation and wonders if there is anything she could do to help. She then recalls the two Horn of the Goblin General that Ainz gave her remembering if she blew it goblins would appear and obey her.

Going to an isolated part outside the village Enri decides to test the artifact out. Nineteen goblins soon appear before her. One of the goblins asks Enri if she is there summoner which the girl confirms. The goblins asks where are their enemies that they need to fight, but Enri tells him that there aren't any yet. Confused the goblin leader asks why they were summoned then. Thinking she insulted the goblin Enri tries to apologize for her rudeness. A goblin with a scar finds the scene where his leader is making their master worried comical, but is rebuked by the leader. After Enri gives the goblins a briefing on the current situation with her village and the air of anxiety, they are interrupted when one of the villagers spots the her and the goblins. Seeing goblins, the man assumes them to be hostile and tells Enri to run. The situation deescalates once Enri explains that she summoned them through Ainz's magic.

The leader asks about the rumor that monsters were coming out of the forest close to the village. The villager still unsure to trust the demi-humans tells them that around ten monsters have emerged from the forest. The goblin leader tells them not to worry as he and his companions will not only take care of it but bring the monsters' meat for dinner and rallies the goblins in his troop.

After a while, the goblins that Enri summoned have slowly become accepted by the villagers, coming to trust them. Meanwhile Enri prepares breakfast for not just her and sister but her new charges. Though the amount is six times from what she normally prepares, she throws herself at the task. Nemu arrives to help her with breakfast but Enri politely directs her to another chore. Nemu's lack of resistance and obedience to her, makes Enri bitter as it's been like that since the loss of their parents. Her bitterness turns to rage as she slams a her knife into the wood block in anger, just when Kaijali enters the kitchen. Noticing her face he asks if anything is wrong, which Enri deflect stating that she just handled the knife wrong. Kaijali tells her to be more careful as there is not blacksmith in the village to repair it or their equipment. Enri feeling guilty, is cheered up by Kaijali not to worry about it and helps her prepare breakfast.

After making breakfast, Enri and Kaijali then head to the residence where Lizzie Bareare and Nfirea Bareare are busying with their potion research. There the two tolerate the noxious fumes of the herbs to invite the Bareare's for breakfast. They are greeted by a tire looking Nfirea. The pharmacist enthusiastically greets the two, unaware that his odor is causing them discomfort. Nfirea begings boasting of the new purple potion he and his grandmother concocted, though Enri is at a loss on the excitement. Kaijali eventually stops him there, telling him that he should wash up before breakfast. As Lizzie is too invested in her work, her grandson reports that she will not be coming to breakfast. Hearing that the Enri decides to return to the breakfast gathering and allow Kaijali to help Nferia freshened up. After she leaves, Kaijali aware of Nfirea's feelings for Enri tries to give him advice on giving more attention to Enri so as not to drive her away. Realizing the truth of his words, Nfirea agrees, and Kaijali makes a suggestion on trying to win Enri with his strength appeal. Later at breakfast outside the Emmot residence, some goblins are arguing on who should marry Enri, but some are against it as she's their boss, while Nemu laughs at their silly banter. With one goblin joking that, since he got more meat in his soup, Enri loves him more. But as they all converse, Nfirea falls asleep in his soup, so as Enri takes him to her bedroom to sleep it off. In private, Enri notes that Jugem and his goblins not only help out the village but have since become a part of it with their care and laughter. Later, Jugem rallies the Vigilance Committee for archery practice with fine results. Nemu finishes mashing Enkaishi herbs to make for medicine. Enri wishes to head to the forest, though Kaijali advises against this as it could be dangerous for her as something is going on in its depths. But as they only grow this time of year, they need to gather more from inside the forest, and they also bring in some revenue to the village. The goblin seeing the issue thinks they need to speak with the leader before any action is made.

After some consultation, Enri and her friend Nfirea decide to head to the forest to collect herbs. The two are escorted by Gokou, Kaijali, and Unlai who join them not only to protect them but also to gather more information on what's going on in the forest. As they explore the forest and search for both herbs and information about the forest Nfirea tries to go with Kaijali's advice with less than subtle hints. The group find the herbs they need and Enri notes how motivated Nfirea is; when they've finished, Kaijali hears something on approach. They quickly hide, and see a goblin child covered in wounds running from a Barghest. Thankfully the scent of the herbs they gathered hid their scent from the beast. Nfirea seeing the helpless goblins opts to save the child to learn why he ran all the way to where they were and determine if something dangerous is nearing the village. While the goblin guards are against it, placing Enri's safety as a priority, Enri herself wants to help as doing nothing would only be a shame. Taking her wish as an order the goblins and Nfirea work together to defeat and kill the Barghest. Thanks to Enri's command, and Nfirea's magic they succeed in killing the monster. Nfirea quickly tends to the goblin child and gives him his newest potion he made from his research. The potion heals the goblin's wound in an instant. After he is healed, the goblin is initially annoyed that the human used him as a subject to test its effects but becomes intimidated by the older goblins when they think he lacks manners. He then thanks them for saving him, introducing himself as Agu of the Gigu Tribe.

Being brought back to Carne Village, Agu is hesitant to enter as the wall surrounding the community gives off a vibe similar to the Monument of Ruin, a place which he explains to be a recent mysterious structure that appeared in the Great Forest surrounded by undead. Their conversation is interrupted by the appearance of one of Ainz's maids, Lupusregina Beta seemingly appearing out of nowhere. Nfirea hands her the Purple Potion to deliver to Ainz with a progress report; her expression changes into genuine glee of bringing her master good news. At the goblins' residence, Agu gives his statement to not just Enri and her friends but also Brita, a former adventurer. The young goblin tells the group that ever since the Beast of the South vanished the power balance in the forest has been upset. Now there seems to be a new power growing in the forest that rules undead from the Monument of Ruin called the King od Destruction. The other powers of the forest, the Giant of the East and Demon Snake of the West have joined forces and began to coerce other inhabitants of the forest to join them. Agus' tribe was one such group who tried to escape being conscript. A battle will likely reach Carne, and given the village's force are unlikely to hold against creatures that can match the Wise King of the Forest, but Lupusregina opts that they call Ainz for aid. Enri, while wanting to, decides to do all that they can do on their own instead of asking Ainz to save themselves whenever they're in trouble. Nfirea and Enri will head to E-Rantel tomorrow to ask the aid of the Adventurer's Guild and sell medicinal herbs respectively. While Brita will inform the Vigilance Committee of actions in case of emergency. Agu in awe that the human women wonder if their females are such strong. The other goblins confirm Enri is strong as is Brita, however as for Lupusregina they warn their junior to stay away from her as she is dangerous.
