Samu!

Wet clothes take away body temperature, and the cave is limping cold.

That's the waterfall cave.

The cave was a main road but wider and deeper than I thought.

The road is equipped with demonic ore lights, and there are certainly traces of people living there.

And by this time, my head was completely cold, and the cloudy sky was smoking inside my chest.

"What is it, Mr. Alice? I was so depressed."

"Makina......"

This kid doesn't pull tails either, does he?

"I'm sorry, Makina. I told you I wouldn't be forced to ask about you, but I can't believe I'm trying... I'm reflecting."

"Ha ha! Fine, fine. I should have told you more about the situation."

Really positive and bright.

But... last night, I heard an old story about Makina close to monologue.

I can't easily guess my mind, but this kid is straining something too much.

Remove all danger with one of them.

I felt a dangerous temper somewhere like that and I never wanted him to talk.

Withdraw the foreword.

I'm so worried about this kid I just met that I seem to wonder.

"Was it? Are you kidding me?"

"It's okay, Lynn"

"Ha ha."

I come over worried. I stroke Lynn's head.

In the meantime, I only wore a towel from my head and wiped my hair, but I need to do something about the clothes.

And Cu, who can't get on his head, rarely runs his feet quietly.

"Oh, that's a dead end"

"Yeah, and we're here."

When I went around poking, I found an obvious artificial door in my rock skin.

Finally meet the blacksmith.

Now you can get Mr. Zion's sword, which is also the purpose?

Um, I want to take my knife home and be praised.

I want to nod my face to your chest.

"Hello ~!"

Makina raised her voice as she knocked on the door.

A woman's voice returned from inside.

Go ahead, that's a kind voice.

"Sorry to interrupt ~ su!

Don't hesitate, Makina opened the door.

Beyond the door was a workshop - not that it was.

It's a common private living room.

Except that the walls are all covered with natural rocks.

"It's been a long time since customers have asked for a blacksmith?

The woman with the little child on her lap responds with a soft smile.

A woman with three beautiful braids of dark hair.

Is this guy the blacksmith?

"Yes, but actually, this time I'm going to ask you to tell me the trick, that you're an apprentice"

"Well? That guy is stubborn, so that sounds tough"

Apparently this guy is the blacksmith's wife.

Look at me wet and take a bath (natural hot springs!) I was entertained by all the blame for letting me in and welcoming me to a far away place and serving tea.

He said he was happy to visit for the first time in a long time because there were not many people coming.

Now that I had one, the blacksmith and I were finally facing each other across the table.

I hear the blacksmith who was working in the back workshop was forced to pull by his wife.

Uh-huh, so is the relationship between an old man and an aunt, but your wife is the strongest.

"Nice to meet you, my name is Alice. With this introduction to Makina, I stopped by today."

"Hmm...?

Smile in front of an already grumpy looking blacksmith.

It is a clear mode activation for external use.

The blacksmith looked strange with an eye on Makina with me like that.

It's also in an instant, shaking my wear and gazing at me again.

"Oops, it's an eel."

Isanagi......?

Memories are stimulated by blacksmiths who stick on their cheeks and rot like evil kids.

"… indeed, the name of the knife my sister used was also Isanagi"

"Am I right? He's using my knife. He's not supposed to be there."

"My sister's name is Theon. I'm a swordsman from Linnal, blacksmith."

The blacksmith's thick eyebrows jump just one way.

"Theon, is that Theon? of the speed of human separation."

"Definitely."

If you know how fast that is, it's a figure that comes to mind in one shot.

"Did you try to get that chest up?

"Definitely."

I nodded loudly.

I was turned cold by Cyra and the blacksmith by his wife.

"Fine, but you're not like Theon."

The blacksmith looks at me from top to bottom with a deep suspicious gaze.

"Is it? The color of your hair and your eyes are just a little different."

"A little...?

Assuming me and Mr. Theon are real brothers and sisters, I was born from my aunt, and you tell me, your old man is going to freak out.

Ma ~, I can feel the breadth of my nose that my old man would love by swallowing it all.

"When you live in a secluded place, do you like to think of other people?

"... whoops"

Keep smiling, I'll stab you a little.

But not tightly, I have Lynn on my lap, and you have a kid on the blacksmith's lap across the street.

Is it just about the same when you were old?

It's unique to this country, with the same dark hair and dark eyes.

Lovely girl.

"What about Lynn?

"Five! What about Sil?

"Five!

and the situation where there is currently a double conversation.

"... that was bullshit, was it a knife?

Apparently, the blacksmith was completely detoxified, too.

"Yes."

"Unfortunately, I can only beat the crap out of the material in my hand right now."

"Material, is it? So, can you teach this Cyra how to train a knife?

It's going to take a lot of work to collect good materials.

"You can't tell me. It's the top of the mountain, the temple of the trials."

Is that a condition for acquiring skills called knife training?

"Is that dangerous?

"Isn't it like proof that there's no one you can hit spread? For the demand."

Certainly.

He also said he wanted to buy the eyelid if he could smell it.

Doesn't it feel more like an art antique than a weapon?

Then profits are big even if the number of copies is low.

"You're just a substitute for the crappy rich."

So you're in such a despicable place?

I see. You don't like being decorated.

But I'm willing to accept even a deal to be decorated.

It's business.

I'll turn my gaze from the flow of conversation somewhat to Cyra.

Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh.

And I think I moved my mouth slowly.

I can't read lips, so I intend to have a conversation with my heart and mind.

Turn to the blacksmith.

"My sister, she's not like that. It brings out the power of weapons."

"Theon, or he was a good user, but still is?

"It's more than old times. The blacksmith struck me with a knife and crushed it."

"Shattered!?

The blacksmith opened his mouth and began to laugh when he caught up with Leonil's demon sword being a better knife and how the strength of his weapon had not followed Mr. Zion's sword speed.

"That bastard broke my knife...? Heh, nice, nice."

When my smelted knife breaks, will it burn?

If you played a role in the actual battle and the weapon could not meet the owner, can you also nod that as an artisan there is something to be expected?

"Instead of asking you to hit me with a knife... did you ask me to plant it on your lady?

"Yes, can you?

"It's up to the lady to tell me that she's immature even if she only acquires skills... but if she's on Zion's side, she doesn't have to do it."

"Thank you!

Good craftsmen want to deliver weapons to good users.

In that sense, I didn't have to convince him again.

If you already know my sister, then it would be the common understanding of the world that I'm going to hit her, no doubt.

"I don't mean for free, do I?

"Of course I'll pay you a fair wage."

"I appreciate it, but it would be more appreciated if you also put booze on it"

"I'll try to arrange a surprise."

"Heh, lady, is that the lady you look like?

"Come on? What do you think?

Negotiations are in place!

After that, should I acquire skills in a place called the Trial Temple of the Mountain?

"... but I honestly think we should stop going to that temple at this time."

"This year... I heard that the mountain is angry"

"If you don't know, it's quick. There's a time of year like that every 10 years. Touch from the country. Well, I guess this year is it. Every time a great man in the country does something to calm him down."

"... somehow?

"I don't know the details. It's just that there's something famous about people in the country."

I ended up letting him stay the night.

Lynn is here, and I really appreciated it when your wife said "because of it" because she didn't want to force me.

The reward has to be colored.

I feel it's not enough with my hand, and I'll have Ilia bring it to me.

Lynn and Miss Sill were also totally close in just one night to what should be called child privilege.

I felt refreshed and started moving towards Wang Du again. Uh-huh.

- Sacrifice and quell the mountain.

This seems to be the famous mountain town rumor in the alley.

I'll sort my head out a lot.

The first thing we want is a knife.

To do this, we must take Cyra and challenge her to the temple of the mountain.

But apparently, that mountain is the year of anger.

It is said that we do not know what natural disasters will happen if we leave it alone.

Apparently, the Kingdom of Assitaca is applying some measure each time.

Sacrifice is the countermeasure.

It's just a rumor... it's nothing.

Not in this other world, but in the world I lived in.

And here's the problem.

We were attacked somehow by officials from the country, Makina said.

Assuming what the country is doing is a sacrifice, and that sacrifice requires magic... for me?

I won't fall...

The fact that you recognized me and attacked me means that I am known as Alice of the kingdom of Arseid.

Given the background, attacking me would be an international problem.

You might be complacent, but I think Clan's gonna be mad at you, huh?

So you're saying that Makina is the person on the side that stops it?

It's obvious that the country is not a single rock, so there is a tsunami.

But I don't think that's what this kid is up to...

Uh-huh?

"Mountain shrine, it may only be dangerous to head into this period"

"I will obey Alice if she turns back."

"No, no, no. I told you it was forbidden to turn back."

"Yes, I want to eat you!

"Cui!"

Ahhh, already!!

"Let's have some dough"

"Yay!

"Overwhelmingly sweet on Lynn!?

Forgive me, Machina.

So cute that I don't know what to do either.

And Kew doesn't know what he's talking about, does he?

Kiku, don't insist, please.

"Makina, do you have a dough shop in Wangdu?

"I don't know, it's everywhere."

Makina swelled her cheeks.

But so far so popular, when I left the country, I had to stop by the dough old man's shop and buy souvenirs and go home.

"Makina, it's not good to come!

"When Lynn tells me, like this, it's a mess"

What the fuck?

"It's a novel phonetic, but is it closer to the Wang capital to climb the mountain than that?

"That's right. On the itinerary, once we take the inn in Wang Du, we leave early in the morning? I have accommodation on the way, so I'll stay there. I'll climb up in a night or two."

I see, because of the trials of the temple at the top, that would be an impossible climbing plan.

"Do you know what alpine disease is?

"Yes, as for knowledge"

"Yeah, honestly, I think you should leave Lynn..."

"Lynn's coming too!

I'm not sure, but I definitely disagree with you.

"Ma, fine. If you need me, I'll take care of you, and I can magically make the space comfortable."

Oh, I can do that, too, right?

I couldn't say that in my mouth.

"The mountain roads are well maintained, so don't worry so much."

Huh?

Sounds like Mount Fuji.

"Ohhh..."

Talking about that, there was another earthquake.

It's not even that big, but it's shaky enough to tell.

".................. sooo fast"

I heard Makina whining.

I still don't care what you think. This kid knows what it is.

But I don't think they're gonna make us worse now by trying to get this far together...

"Makina?"

"Yeah?"

Makina wrinkles between her eyebrows like she's hardened, it's hard to watch.

"If you need anything, talk to me, will you?

……

Oh, the rugged look disappeared.

"Yeah, I'm... yeah, it's nothing"

"Uh, it's nothing, is it? That's it."

"Haha, that's okay. It's just about me... look at me. Hold on, I want you to see it."

I can't find a word to call you because it's something that looks like a cut that doesn't fit my age there.

I've seen people show signs like this before.

I acted for the kids, Amy.

And I put my body up for Leonil, Raimia.

What we have in common... self-sacrifice.

"Makina, don't you think heroes are the only way to live?

I got anxious, so let's stab the nail a little.

"Hmm, I'm sure the hero... is better off being gone for everyone's sake"

Apparently, Machina and I had a different sense of heroism, but I only knew that at this time.
