Me, Mina, Sakya, Phil, Mai, Shirazaki, Krall, and Fire came to Alfheim, the land of the Spirit, to get equipment with the special effect of "Protecting Aquatic Habitat".
"Ah! People!
"People!
"There's even the Dragon Nation!
"That's the Dragon King!
"Wow! Oh, my God!
"It's the end of the century!
The spirits who discovered us are making a scene.
But that's the usual thing, so let's not worry too much.
"Wow! This is the Land of the Spirit! It's full of tiny spirits!
... about one girl on this side is also making a cawdy noise, but let's ignore this as well.
"Sorry, Fire. You took the trouble to carry us."
The journey to this point could be significantly cut with the 'spatial connection' of the fire.
I was going to come here using "Dragon King's Treasure Ball," but the fire was also meant to follow us, so I left her to move.
It's a pretty luxurious story to use the Dragon King for something like a taxi replacement.
Too much awe.
"Hum, it's nothing. I'll have this borrowed back by Cross."
"Right."
Then let me give you a hand, Janjang.
I have all my money crossed.
We did it.
(Lord... is there a grudge against me...?)
It's a joke.
I thought maybe you were reading my thoughts again.
I tested that.
Lori, you fooled me so badly!
(What the hell!? I was counted!)
... or naturally read my thoughts, really give me a break.
I can't even think of anything weird with you.
(Mm, mmm... aye ok. Do good. But what's weird, for example?)
That's... weird when it comes to weird things...
Don't ask deeply.
"... Well, then, let's go see the Spirit King soon"
When I was communicating with Cross and it was going to be awkward, I moved my legs to change my mood and headed to the fountain where the Spirit King would be.
"Oh! There you are! See you today for a much rarer combination!
After all, the Spirit King was in his usual fountain.
It's been a long time since we've seen each other again, but this guy hasn't changed at all.
I'm a person who lives hundreds of years, and naturally so.
"Excuse me, I've been in a group this time."
"I don't mind that much! I don't usually interact with the outside, so you're more than welcome!
"Ha ha..."
Before, even when we came here in large numbers, the Spirit King looked rather pleased.
So I thought maybe it would be ok for the eight of us to come... when this gets tense too...
"But I didn't think you'd be with me until the fire. I wonder what that means?
"Humph, no, no. Sometimes it's not bad to go to another continent and find out what's going on."
"You say that and you're really traveling and enjoying all sorts of places! I'm jealous!"
The Spirit King was entangled in a fire.
These two are close or not, you haven't been sure for a long time.
Hey, Cross.
From you, what about these two?
... Is that it?
You haven't heard back.
Did I snake because I was a little edgy earlier?
Or are you taking care not to read my thoughts in the dark?
Either way, that was a bit of a bad time.
I'll ask again next time.
"And Claire! Nice of you to come! How have you been?
"Wow, I'm always fine! So don't come near me with your hands excited!
Is Crail next to the fire?
We're good friends here, as usual.
Although Krall also feels like a spoiler for the Fire and Spirit King.
"No more crawling... So we have a couple of first-time kids this time, right? Could you introduce me?
Looks like the Spirit King has found another target as Krall hid on my back.
"Okay."
In the meantime, I introduced Mina, Sakya, Shirazaki, and Mai to the Spirit King.
"Oh, my God, we're all so nervous. You can talk to me more easily, can't you?
The three men, Mina, Sakya and Shirazaki, were in a slight contraction, in front of the Spirit King.
The Spirit King who saw it smiled a little lonely.
In this person's case, I guess it would be more right to talk to each other with a sense of dealing with friends than with a feeling of dealing with great people.
Because... if you're going to introduce me to Mai, I'm sure you'll be able to crack it down with the Spirit King.
"My native from Earth. Shh! She is 16 years old and she is healthy. My favorite things are food in general and cute things in general!
"Huh!"
Introducing Mai as the fourth, suddenly the Spirit King solidified.
…………
…………
And Mai and the Spirit King suddenly stared at each other... and shook Gashi's hand.
... Why?
"I thought I'd met someone who seemed to fit the wavelength so far, not since Senior Noah!
"You and I are going to have a good drink."
Did they feel something for each other?
It was the moment when friendship sprouted I wasn't sure.
I thought Mai would get along well with the Spirit King too, but all of a sudden you're too close.
"You've all come a long way! I welcome you all!
... For now, it looks like they all passed the Spirit King test (?).
I am relieved that it was difficult to ask for a favor after this when it seems to be damaging to the Spirit King's mood here.
"So, how many days are you staying here this time?
"Uh... Before I do that, I have one favor for the Spirit King. I mean, that's what I came here for..."
"Do me a favor? Oh, what can I do for you?
The Spirit King peered into my eyes with his neck tilted.
"Krall told me that the Spirit King could make equipment with 'protection of the aquatic habitat', could you accommodate about 30 of them to us?
"Of aquatic habitat? Well, I can't make it... but what are you going to do, get something like that?
"Yes, actually..."
I explained to the Spirit King how it happened.
"Oh well... that's what happened"
Then the Spirit King put his arms together and closed his eyes to contemplate something... and opened it.
"Fine, it's a favor from the other Sins. I'll make it for you."
"! Is it true!
"Yeah. But instead..."
The mouth of the Spirit King grinned niggly as he looked at me delighted.
Hey, what...?
What the hell is this guy going to offer...?
"You guys will be staying in this country for at least a week! That's the deal from me!
…………
It was a hell of a yul condition.
Are you sure that's okay...
No, well, I don't mind if they give me weird terms.
"If that's the case, I don't mind. You don't mind the Sakyas, do you?
"Yeah, I'm fine, too. Instead, are you lucky to have time to look around at the Land of the Spirit?
"That's right! We'll all be sightseeing. Whoa!
"Mi, leave the directions to me..."
Mina and the others seem to wish and fulfill this condition.
Being unable to get out of this country for a week is a bit of a time loss... but if they're happy, this won't be a bad idea either.
I don't know, I think I have enough room in my heart to think so right now.
"Hey! Don't worry, Ichinose! Looks like we're gonna be held here for a week!
Only Shirazaki was in a hurry with us like that.
You're somewhat aggressive when it comes to the attack on the underground labyrinth.
It was a little unexpected.
"You don't have a problem with a week or so. Take it easy, Shirazaki."
Shirazaki turned to me like he was surprised.
What kind of reaction is that, here?
"Hey, what the fuck! You wanted to attack the underground labyrinth as soon as possible!
"I'd like to attack, but I'll wait a week or so. Maybe in the meantime, the Spirit King will make us some gear."
He told me to make it, and it wouldn't even be like I could do it right away.
Besides, I got 30 of them.
Instead, if you think you can procure as many as 30 of the items you want in just one week, you don't feel like it's a painful time loss.
"... ugh, what the hell. I'm the only one left empty."
…………
Oh...... maybe Shirazaki knew I'd been adamant about the attack of the underground labyrinth, so he had the attitude he had just taken.
If so, you did something a little bad to Shirazaki.
I was doing something that would put water on his motivation.
"This past week has been like a vacation for us. When this is over, it will be a battle streak again, so stretch your wings. I'm counting on your work."
"... oh, I get it. Damn, I can't help it!
All right, looks like you're feeling better.
Hi, this guy seems vulnerable to words like 'I expect' and 'I rely on you'.
As a matter of fact, I can expect and depend on you, so let's say bang.
Don't think of it as chocolate or anything like that.
"All right, if you decide to, do you want to go to the hot springs first?"
"Heh? Hot Springs?
"There are hot springs in this country. It feels good to come in. How about you come with me?
I put my hand on Shirazaki's shoulder and invited him to the hot spring.
Whatever.
This is one place, maybe with Shirazaki and naked dating.
I'll teach him how good this country is.
"Hot springs! I went, too. - Go!
"Ugh, well, let's start with Hot Spring Time for all of us!
That's how we travel to Alfheim's famous hot springs...
"Oh, I'm not going to that place!
Shirazaki escaped.
