A Chronicle of Life in a Different World

"Hey, kid."

What's up, Sebastian?

"Of course I said I could bring the dwarf home... I told you. But... I wonder if I could bring back nearly 50 dwarves."

It took about ten days from the dwarf settlement to return to the abandoned city of Laval, but when I reported the incident to Natalia at the Adventurers Association, I was told with a smile. A precious, troublesome smile inside.

I wanted to go straight to Dominic's restaurant if I could, but I couldn't leave the dwarfs alone. That's why I rushed into the Adventurers Association, greeting my fellow towns.

"No, yeah... it's unexpected for me. I want to think that the" castle collapse "is bad and I'm not bad..."

I would like to protest as a Reurus. If it hadn't been for the Castle Crash and the giant worms, we wouldn't have taken the dwarves back to the abandoned city of Laval.

However, there is no other way to talk about such “what if”. As a matter of fact, I brought in nearly fifty dwarves.

It's a dwarf that looks like a small person if you just look at it, but if you walk down the street, you'll notice it. As a result, he took a big detour from the street and moved into the woods, returning carefully so as not to be seen.

Even as humans approached, they were caught by Sarah's heat sensing and were able to avoid contact. In the case of monsters, we were caught in the thought of Reurus, so we just had to have a meal on the way.

"... nobody saw you, right?

"You've been careful around here? Sarah and I ransacked each other, and the dwarves are now hiding in the woods."

I walked through the woods so I couldn't see through. It is a thorough attempt to make sure that there is no shadow in the surroundings when crossing a gap in the forest, and to travel to the night as far as possible when passing through a place with a good view.

"That's why I brought Calvin here to represent the dwarf."

"Wow, I'm Calvin from the Dwarf... I was surprised when I finished beating Reurus's sword and woke up in bed with my buddies and ran away from home."

That's Calvin's resentful gaze, but Reurus doesn't stray from each other. I didn't have time to wait long enough to wake up in that situation.

Calvin stared at the distracted Reurus for a while, but eventually sighed and turned back to Natalia.

"We Dwarves can live anywhere with beds, rice, sake and a blacksmith. But you can't be honest with me, can you?

"Well... if you accept a subhuman dwarf, it's going to be quite a problem."

Natalia sighs tired. Because of the circumstances, only Natalia and Bartolo, the president of the Adventurers' Association, were there, but Bartolo was scratching his head like he was in trouble.

"One or two of the dwarfs can deceive you as much as they want, but that's exactly 50 of them...."

"Tough?

"I simply need food... but I have to say that I can handle it in a short period of time, but it's tough when I live here."

As the face of Laval Waste City, Bartolo must have judged it that way from the state of the town's stockpiles. The problem of accepting a subhuman named dwarf is the same, but the problem in the first place is lack of food.

"I hunt monsters....."

"Kid? Monsters don't usually run into each other that often.

"Yeah, I know... but I've been seeing monsters too often lately..."

It seems impossible to hunt down monsters and make up for them. Not only the red sword, but also Eliza's wand and other "colors” made for Reurus, so I couldn't bear to throw out the dwarf like this.

"Hey, Reurstemekola, that's not true."

"There were more dwarves than I expected...."

Originally, Natalia didn't think there were so many dwarfs. It is an unexpected scale for Reurus.

If you think of it as a group of nearly 50 intermediate monsters, you can also see its unexpected swing.

"Hah... well, I didn't originally think I could live in a human town. If you're one of Reurus' people, I'm sure you can trust me, but it's not easy for us to wander around town, is it?

"If you're officially going to be friends with the town, you'll get used to it soon."

"That makes me uncomfortable. If you're one of Reurus' people, you don't know when they'll eat you. Is that what you guys are? Do you eat anything at Coribo?

Calvin laughs whether it's a joke or not. But then Natalia turned a cold eye to Reurus.

"Our town seems to be misunderstood... boy, what have you been doing?

"What? I just ate it because there was a monster that ate it."

"You're not going to eat it...."

Calvin told me he was tired. In response to Calvin's reaction, Natalia looks behind Reurus. There was Eliza, who looked tired in the army so far, and Sarah, who seemed normal.

"Lady?

"It was" as usual ”... that's all."

Along the way, he was attacked by a bandit, questioned by soldiers, encountered a traveler of immense strength, and at the end of his sentence, he met a noble figure, but with the exception of those, he would have been “as usual.”

Natalia plays with the smoke pipe she had in her hand in trouble, but after about ten seconds she turns to Bartolo.

"Guild president?

"Temporary acceptance will do your best. If you could make armor at the town blacksmith's, it would be gold, but that would cause problems. Nearly 50 dwarves, anyway. You can't deceive yourself if you produce massive quantities of quality equipment."

There seems to be a lot of problems besides food. I can think about what happened to Reurus, but there will be no quick way for everything to work out.

"No, even this way, if you can lean in temporarily. Even so, I'm confident in strength and forgery. Tell me if there's anything I can do. I'll borrow it and let you find a candidate for a new house."

But Calvin offered a solution first. Instead of living in the abandoned city of Laval, they're going to build their own house again.

(Rather than a reasonable drop....)

I don't want to abandon the dwarves as a Reurus, but I can't bring a “problem” into the abandoned city of Laval.

"Then I'll pay for the meal. I didn't pay for all the stuff you made."

"What am I supposed to do with human money? As Dwarves, we were able to strike weapons and defenses with such precious materials. That's all I'm satisfied with... oh, but will you let me eat? And add some alcohol to it."

That said, Reurus takes out the kind of gold that he never gave to the dwarves. That's right, I can't use the full amount, but Reus thought of keeping about half of it in Natalia for now.

Well then, can you do something with this money? If it's a little bit of a nuisance, just take it out.

"Yes, yes, I can't help it... with all this food and alcohol, I can handle it. If you're not in town, you just have to buy it from somewhere else."

When Natalia received a cloth bag containing gold coins from Reurus, she handed it to Bartolo.

"So, where do you live?

"I don't need a place to live. You can't blacksmith, but if you just want to live, you can dig a hole in a nearby forest. There are no strong monsters around here, are there?

"Kimira has appeared before... right?

Reurus looked at Natalia for confirmation and Natalia nodded small.

"The boy and daughter are back, and the weak monsters won't stop by. In the first place, even if you were strong monsters, it wouldn't be easy to defeat them if you were classified as intermediate.

That's right, but when you're near the Reurus, aren't there any advanced monsters? I wouldn't be surprised if a firedragon flew in. "

As a realuse, I would like to ask you carefully what it looks like in Calvin. However, it was difficult to contest the fact that the castle collapsed.

"For the time being, I don't think the conditions for a temporary stay are such a place... but please don't imitate it as if it would be outrageous in the city.

"I won't. If you do that, Reurus will eat you."

"Hey, so what are you looking at me for?"

That's how Reurus stares at Calvin, but as he imitates the previous Reurus, Calvin is distracted. But I turned a serious eye to Reurus as soon as I remembered something.

"That's right... hey Reurus, I need one favor."

"What?

Apparently, it's serious. Judging that way, and taking Reurus seriously, Calvin said, feeling a little upset.

"My daughter... will you keep Meer with you? He likes you guys, and he's got a lot to say about us."

Calvin looked like a “father”, even though he was in a bad mood.

Meer has a complex about her height. I wonder if this is a statement in light of that.

"... I don't mind, but I need to renovate my house before I keep it.

In the meantime, it may be temporary, but there is no reason to refuse to keep Meer as a Reurus. It will have a good emotional impact on both of you because you are close to Eliza and Sarah.

However, it was a problem that there was no room to keep it.

It was originally built with Reus and Eliza in mind. That said, Sarah joined in a short period of time, and the house was too cramped when she took care of Meer in addition.

"That should be up to us. If we can even prepare the materials, we'll finish the renovation overnight."

Of course, with Dwarf's technology, we can do it overnight. In order to do this, it will be necessary to collect building materials, but it seems that the dwarf will greatly improve the ease of living and the robustness.

However, there are problems such as land even if it is renovated. Asking Natalia what to do about it, Natalia smiled meaningfully.

"You're after the girl, aren't you?

"It's a misunderstanding... it's a misunderstanding..."

Speaking of which, Reurus remembered what he said when he heard about the dwarf.

It was a reunion of stories about the treatment of dwarves, a reunion that struggled desperately to solve misunderstandings while shelving the houses where the reunions lived.

After leaving the Adventurers' Union, Reurus takes his feet to Dominic's restaurants. Calvin is heading to a nearby forest to tell his friends about the incident, but his neck has a letter of recommendation from Reurus on it, so they won't be able to stop him.

After dark, the dwarves returned to the abandoned city of Laval to avoid sightings, but Dominic's restaurant is open at night. It will be closed in the middle of the night, but it is not late yet.

Reurus takes Eliza and Sarah into Dominic's restaurant. It was already rumored that Reurus and the others had returned, and Corona soon showed up. There is also Dominic in the kitchen, and when he sees the revulsions, he gets small and falls apart.

Mr. Reurus! Welcome back, Eliza and Sarah!

Corona rushes over. The face smiled, but there was also a feeling of relief, and Reus, who saw Corona's face, smiled as he thought he was “back.”

I'm home, Corona.

"Not now!

"I'm home. I'm Corona."

Eliza and Sarah respond as well as Reurus. Hearing that, Corona smiled more and more - panicking out the keys from her pocket.

"That's right... I have to return this."

"Oh, thank you. And... I'm a souvenir."

Once you receive your home key from Corona, Reurus gives you a souvenir instead. It is a rugged stone picked up after defeating the Castle Collapse, but it was shaped and polished in an oval shape with the help of Meer before returning to Laval Waste City.

That's why it looks like a jewel if it's just a look - hopefully, Reurus thinks.

"Eh... well, this is expensive..."

It looked expensive from the corona. However, although it took a while, it didn't take a yura, so it was difficult to react as a revulsion.

"Ah... no, the price is zero. So please feel free to accept it."

I thought it would be like a decoration such as a necklace, but I don't have such a technology. I wanted to make it a more caring souvenir for Reurus, but this time it was the limit.

"Didn't you buy it in town?

Corona leans her neck with a strange face. If you thought it was a store product, it was worth spending time polishing it up.

(I'm sorry for the zero originals....)

It may be a jewel, but as a realus, it feels like I've only picked up a stone that looks good. For that reason, Reurus laughs at the very least at the thought of talking about souvenirs.

"It's not expensive, but there's a lot going on until we get it. I'm going to leave town first..."

I finally came home.

After ordering salt soup from Dominic and sitting on the chair, Reurus started talking souvenirs not only to Corona, but also to his fellow towns.
