Almark – Northern Sword, Southern Wand

The colony of Irvinotal Hogsa was relatively close to the colony of the first Mogatsukibana.

Once again, the forest opened.

"Here we are. That's it."

At the tip of Morgan's finger, the grass with the golden hoe was shaking in the wind.

"Is that Irvinotal Hogsa? But this is...."

Almark frowned.

The Irvinotal Hogsa was lurking in the wind in the moonlight on a rocky area that was high enough to look up.

You're going to get it there?

There are a number of places on the rock where feet and hands are likely to hang, so climbing and descending is unlikely to be difficult.

But it didn't look like they could afford to stand on the rocks.

"I'll go."

Almark said.

"Morgan, take the grass downstairs. I'd like to ask Wendy to use his technique."

"Yeah."

Leave it to me.

The two nodded.

"I want to go too."

It was Zap who raised his voice.

"I want to climb up too."

My eyes were sparkling with the moonlight. Usually a big boy, but maybe he's actually a more active boy.

"All right, let's go then."

Zap nods happily at Almark's words.

Sometimes next year. It would be better than not to experience anything.

"Fita, Radmar. What about you guys?

As Almark turned around, Fita looked up at the rock with an interesting face.

"If you're interested, come with me."

Almark smiles at Fita.

"You should try anything."

"But I may not be able to climb well."

When Pheta says no, Morgan gently pinches his mouth.

"It's okay, it's okay. When Almark is ready, he can climb up and down with you in this rocky area."

"Yeah, it's fine with Almark. Don't worry, just go."

Wendy pushed her back too, and Fita, well then, stepped forward.

"What about Radmar?

When Wendy asked, Radmar shook his head and replied softly.

"I'm not interested in rock climbing. Wait downstairs."

"Yes."

Wendy smiles.

"The people down there have jobs for the people down there."

"Oh, I know."

Radmar has a white face.

Then I'll climb with the three of you.

Wendy nodded at Almark's words and took out the knife.

"Be careful. And cut it as close to the ground as you can."

Say so, wrap the knife in your hand and give it to Almark.

"Okay. Thank you."

Almark nodded and turned back to the rock with Zap and Fita.

"I'll be the last to climb. Zap, why don't I climb up from you?"

"Yeah."

Zap nodded and put his hand on the rock.

Light it up.

Wendy says so and flies the wildfire over Zap in a quick motion.

"Let's start there."

Almark points to the depression in the middle of the rock.

"Okay."

Zap nodded in an unexpectedly agile motion and climbed the rocks.

"Very good. Be careful not to step off."

Almark shouted from the bottom, but Zap reached the middle of the rock without danger.

I'll do it.

Morgan leaked his voice as impressed.

"Zap seems to be fine."

That's how Almark nods to Wendy.

"Zap, I think we can get up from there."

When Almark calls, Zap nods with a smile.

"Then you can climb up carefully. Fita, you climb with me."

Almark calls out to Fita, pointing out the rock.

"Put your hands there. Yes, I'm good."

After a while, the three Almarks stood safely on the rock.

"Good work, Fita."

When Almark praises, Fita nods with her cheeks flushed.

I didn't think I could climb.

"Zap will be fine with this rocky field next year's practice."

"Yeah."

Zap nods proudly.

It was easier than I thought.

I see.

Almark smiles and turns to the grass with the golden hoe.

All right, let's mow it.

Almark waved down.

"Morgan. I'll mow it and drop it."

Morgan looks down.

Morgen had already raised vines from the woods to tie the grass while Al Mark and the others were climbing the rocks.

Radmar, who was used by Morgan, has a vine with a faint face.

Illuminated by Wendy's manipulation of the wildfire, Almark makes a pleasant noise and trims the irivinotal hogsa and throws it down in one piece.

And then Zap and Fita took the knife in turn and mowed the grass, and threw three bunches of it down.

"That's enough."

I hear a voice.

"All right, let's get off."

Almark called out to both of them when he broke the knife.

The two nodded, but as they went down the stairs, they peeked downstairs and showed their scared faces.

"I was obsessed with climbing."

Zap says.

"Why is it so expensive?"

"It's okay. I'm watching."

Almark also decided to let Zap down first.

"Zap, don't look down there. You just need to see how far you can reach your limbs. I'll tell you from above."

Almark peeks up and watches Zap manage to get off in a reckless motion.

Downstairs, I can see Morgan holding a staff and preparing in case of an accident.

As Zap landed safely on the ground, Almark clapped from above and saw Fita.

Hey, how's Fita coming down?

However, Fita's face did not have the excitement of climbing, and she shook her head without strength.

"I can't. I'm scared."

"Okay."

Almark nodded and turned the dagger he was carrying forward, kneeling his back towards Fita.

"Then hold on tight to me. Don't look down there."

"Yeah."

With Fita back on his back, Almark began to descend from the rocks.

Almark, are you okay?

"Be careful."

The voice of Morgan and Wendy rang from below.

"It's okay. I'll be right down."

Almark kept his word, and as soon as he got down to the ground, he lowered Fita from his back.

Standing in front of the two relieved faces, Almark asks.

"I wonder how it was when I actually climbed."

"I was more afraid of going down than climbing."

Zap says, Fita nods.

"You can't just climb. I have to think about getting off."

"Yeah, that's right. They're right."

Almark nodded with a smile.

"That's because you actually climbed it. I'd love to teach it to junior students next year."
