Din no Monshou (WN)

Episode Three: A smooth journey

"... Phew"

I spent two days like Shura in a cow truck.

Bud and Limris formed an awkward space, and it was a form of us getting caught up in it.

It was counterproductive to be a singer and try to soothe the field.

Now let's stop singing short songs and turn it into a river willow.

"You're finally here."

"... Huh. I knew you'd get the most tired of this."

It's early morning now.

Alec stretched out with Akbi.

Well, I let you run light for 18 hours a day.

While driving, everyone was hypnotized, but she was the only one holding the reins at all times.

I really want to say good luck.

"You can rest in the canyon anyway, let's go."

"Right. So it's time to wake you both up"

Walkins also nodded at Alec's suggestion.

She sleeps while sitting Bud and

I woke up Rimlis lying down and resting.

"... what, you've already arrived"

"To the northeast end of the kingdom, in just a few days..."

The two muttered smudgingly.

Well, I was surprised at first, too.

I can't believe there was a warcraft that could run so fast.

It's not supposed to live in the kingdom.

Probably brought them from some secret border.

Alec's range of action far exceeds my expectations.

"Damn, I'm finally farewell from a cramped smoke split."

Bud leaves the carriage in a whim.

And when I could put the pipe in my mouth, I breathed out smoke like it was delicious.

I thought I'd check my face while I slept.

Bud wakes his eyes just a little closer.

Are your senses sharp, or are you alert?

Probably both.

"It's like you scored half a goal when you got to the spiritual peak.

I'm sick of hearing you're going by road, but it's easy to get out of here. "

Being able to assure you it's easy means you probably have mountaineering experience.

But it is impossible to cross the spiritual peak with half-baked readiness.

I hope they don't shrug my legs.

"Stay with me after my senior year. If you step off your feet, you'll die instantly."

"Oh really...? I'm ashamed I'm not good at bad scaffolding."

Limris blued a little.

Maybe I've never climbed a mountain.

The first time you climb a mountain is the spiritual peak of death. You have a pretty hard life.

Seeing Rimlis looking frightened, Alec sighs.

And all I had to do was call Walkins.

"Can I leave the back row to you? Exactly. I can't take care of three of them alone."

"I'll take care of it"

I see.

Last time, there were two elves from the canyon against one of my amateurs.

I guess it was relatively easy to lead the way.

But this time, the elf is Alec alone.

I can't help but be blind to all of them.

Alec looked over at the spiritual peak and began to break his fingers for calculation.

"If you take the shortest route, you'll be there in the middle of the night."

"It's gonna take a lot longer than before."

"Except for you, dear fluids have not been applied to a large number of people.

Perhaps mountain roads make it difficult. "

Couldn't you break through the barrier blocking the shortcut without my dear fluids?

Without the lead of the elves, we would not know the right or left.

But Bud looks confident.

"... I don't know, but the point is, you climb mountains.

Don't be so frightened. "

With Alec's guidance, we set foot on the spiritual peak.

Then, in the first 5 minutes, Bud seemed uncomfortable.

"... what a strange flutter"

"There's a barrier that drives the senses crazy.

Without my guidance, I wouldn't be upside down at the bottom of the valley. "

It's still a creepy place.

An atmosphere that darkens the sea of the Fuji trees to the extreme.

It is an environment where you can hear the roar of the Warcraft from afar and stir up anxiety.

Ground conditions also suck, always accompanied by the risk of slipping.

Really, it's a hard mountain to climb.

"... when the Warcraft will appear from the bush. That's scary."

"Watch your step. Like walking after my life's steps."

Alec seems to be pioneering the blue-blue Limris.

But to be polite, you take good care of yourself.

- And here Alec stopped to pitch.

Turning to Bud behind, she tells with a sharp voice.

"Bud and I do. Don't smoke pipes in the spiritual peaks."

"... ah? Why not?"

"There's a trap you can't even notice if your sense of smell isn't sharp. And..."

The next moment, suddenly, a shadow popped out of the bush.

Flying objects moving at high speeds.

On the lookout, it was a giant bee with as much as a person's torso.

Looks like Bud just ate it too.

"What the hell is this guy?"

"Ha, bee-!?"

Limris sweats cold.

The bees wore thick crusts, pounding chickens and jaws.

Because of the narrow path, we are sealed in motion.

You know how it is, the bees are headed for Limris, close to a straight line.

"... get out of the way"

Bud drew Limris and let him back down.

However, the motion creates a gap.

A giant bee tries to strike at the defenseless Bud.

But...

"-" Accurate Breeze ""

Faster than my chant, Alec was shooting wind magic.

The blade of the wind breaks the bee apart.

A bee that tries to eat even if it's half full.

But Bud kicked in for where he fell to the ground.

As it blows to the slope, the bee falls straight to the valley bottom.

Seeing that, Bud muttered with a bitter look.

"... damn, what the hell"

"Well, I'm glad you're both safe."

One thing settled.

But it was almost catastrophic.

Alec sighs and warns Bud.

"As you can see, there's also the possibility that a warcraft noticed smoke would come by.

If you don't want to die, it's not about punishing the pipes. "

"... oh. Okay."

Hearing that, Bud got the pipe out of his mouth.

Sounds like a shame, but I missed it without leaving out any objections.

Rimlis, covered in buds, speaks to him with a nagging.

"... sorry, Bud"

"What are you apologizing for? It's my fault you called... sorry."

That's what I said, Bud turned forward.

Alec also seems to have regained his olfactory acumen, choosing the path more accurately than earlier.

Cut it off, everyone resumed their steps.

Alec keeps going without fear.

Limlis, who will follow in horror afterwards.

And Bud walks like he cares.

Stay away from me, Walkins.

It reminds me of the old RPG.

Teamwork would be perfect if the person chosen at the first tavern.

This face, chosen in the Wang capital, very often clashes.

It doesn't stay that way.

When we reached halfway down the mountain road...

Alec stopped in front of the cliff.

"It's not a suspension bridge from here.

Be careful because the structure is unstable. "

"Wait a minute. Where's the suspension bridge?

Oh, it's reacting exactly the same way I did before.

Well, naturally so.

Because the suspension bridge is hidden by barriers and only the elves can see it.

"Anyway, you don't look familiar, so I'll skip the explanation.

Well, I don't know how to get over here. "

Coming here reminds me of my last trauma.

because he was afraid to take a step,

Alec threw him across the shore.

I was just ready to die then.

"Regardless of Regis and Walkins,

To carry you with floating magic and throwing, it seems heavy. "

Alec stares at Bud and Limris.

Well, Bud will definitely be heavy.

He's tall and his muscles look pretty good.

Limris is wearing light armor, which makes him much heavier than usual.

"I think it would be nice to take off my armor... what shall we do with Bud"

"Hmm. I'm having a little trouble with this."

Theoretically, it's fine if you follow in Alec's footsteps.

But since this bridge is transparent by the power of the barrier, it does not follow in the footsteps of the heart either.

Walkins was the name when Alec was thinking of a way to open it.

"- Floating magic is not required. Leave it to me."

"Drop the bridge or something. Elves won't be able to come and go."

"Whatever."

Walkins nodded coolly in response to Alec's confirmation.

What are you going to do?

She put her hands where she thought there was a suspension bridge.

And...

"Lake Swamp Frozen Ice Demon Breath.

The Spirit of Freezing doesn't dance on ice - "Apparition Freeze" "

The moment I chant, everything around me freezes from grass to grass.

And an ice bridge appeared in front of me.

Make sure he's frozen by the bees, and Walkins exhales in relief.

"If there is an entity even if you can't see it, freeze it and you'll see the shape."

"Oh wow... and you'll never shake this"

"Heh, heh. As long as I get my water magic back, I'll be here before breakfast."

Alec is burning up a sense of confrontation against Walkins.

But you should honestly praise Walkins here.

This idea is great.

"This makes it a lot easier to cross."

While praising him, Bud just tries to take the first step.

But Walkins stopped in a cool voice.

"Please wait a moment. It could slip like this."

Even though the bridge has been visualized, it is covered with ice.

It's a straight line to the bottom of the cliff on a slippery day.

Can it be even easier to cross from here?

Walkins meditates his eyes softly.

And the next moment I opened my eyes, the color of my eyes was suddenly changing.

The color as if it had melted red and gold.

The magic released is also full of scourge.

In that state, she chanted sternly.

"The Devil Nite Kaijus Immortal no Crystal.

Crushed Kalezarha Infinite No Demon Block - "Ibir Crystal" "

Goosebump-like magic vegetables cover the bridge.

Then the frozen bridge instantly discolored.

The ice on the surface turned into a jewel-like material.

The run-down bridge - to a sparkling light purple color.

After a while, it had become a beautiful bridge that reflected light.

"I crystallized the surface of the ice.

Now we should be able to cross as a normal bridge. "

That said, Walkins went back to his predetermined position.

I just say, "It's okay now," and I encourage you to move forward.

But the previous two had their feet completely stopped.

Bud was stunned and interested, but Limris was stunned and his face snapped.

"Oh, ancient magic."

Bud squeaked smugly.

Apparently he has a lot of knowledge too.

Ancient magic.

Alec is plainly the subject of research,

It was originally forbidden to use as contraindicated magic within the kingdom.

The reason is simple and lucid - because it's dangerous.

Ancient magic once brought to this continent and has wielded disaster.

Methods of acquisition, effects, influences, and all of them are riddled with mystery.

"Ancient magic should be a contraindicated designation..."

Rimlis asks Fearful Walkins.

But here, unexpectedly, Bud interrupted.

"Lim. Contraindications or whatever are prejudices decided by the royal family.

I don't give a shit. I'm not trapped in discipline. "

"... I know."

When Bud told him to teach, Rimlis nodded haphazardly.

Oh, my God, that's oddly light broken.

It also bothers me that Limris stumbled on the words.

Above all, Bud is caught tolerating contraindicated magic.

Conceiving, Walkins smiled softly.

"Rest assured. I chose something that was not specified as contraindicated among ancient magic."

"That's good, but I guess we can disarm it later, huh?

Seeing the ice-covered bridge, Alec turns a chilling gaze.

They're only making bridges transparent with barriers to hide.

I guess it's inconvenient for anyone to see it this way.

In response to Alec's concerns, Walkins told him to appease them.

"Immediately after crossing, we will solve the crystallization.

It's a sunny cliff, and in a day, the ice will melt. "

"Hmm, then fine. Let's move on."

Leading Alec.

Lord Walkins.

The mountaineering proceeded smoothly thanks to a perfect formation that was no more.

◆ ◆ ◆

To be clear, the road to the canyon was extremely difficult.

There's a bottomless marsh ahead of the fall,

I thought the visible ground was actually a steep slope in a straight line below the cliff.

I realized, in a true sense, why I couldn't live to return once I stepped in.

And then at dusk...

"All right, we'll be there."

"Do it... I'm tired of it"

"It was a long journey"

Bud and Limris muttered in an exhausting manner. I can't help it.

My knees are laughing, too, and I'm in a tough condition to run if I don't get some rest.

As I breathed on my shoulders, Walkins approached me to care.

"Are you all right, Master Regis"

"No problem, I'm just a little tired"

The gentleness of Walkins, who worries me, makes me almost cry.

She pushed my back to support me.

"Master Regis, Master Bud and I are going to be real.

You want to keep your mind on it. "

"Oh. But I just want to stay here for the night today"

I have a place to stay.

There is no point in breaking through spiritual peaks in the forcible army.

We followed Alec and stepped into Elf's neighborhood.

But it's like you're forgetting something important.

Twisting his neck, one of the elves noticed this one.

"Oh, you are - heh!

When the elf woman noticed Alec, she whistled her fingers echoing around the canyon.

Summon with even more slaughtering ringtones.

"Meet. Meet! Alexandia's back!

"WHAT!? WHERE? Awwwwwwww!

"Get him! Hold him in! Don't let him go home alive!

Elves coming together in succession.

There was a firm intention in his eyes to kill.

Yes, I remember.

Alec set a hell of a trap when he left the canyon.

Indeed, the elves were served diuretic medicines.

Watch them lay down their weapons, and Bud sweats cold.

"Dude, why are the elves attacking me..."

"Alec, it's definitely your fault! Apologize!"

Put your hands on the back of Alec's head and try to keep his head down.

But even this time, I'm bringing an outsider to the elves.

If you do poorly, you get attacked for real.

I'll apologize with you.

I'm sorry about the elves. Let's do it.

"Look, I'm sorry."

Alec's head tries to tilt with full force, along with a hanging voice.

But it doesn't move a millimeter.

I'd rather have the momentum to stick my finger out.

What you.

Do you even have a steel neck?

Are you even going to compete in football using Shaolin Fist?

Alec provokes with a tattered grin.

"What, you still have it in your roots?

Think of it as a cute flirt and take it with Dawn. "

"Can you take it?"

That's the best I can say.

Seeing the weaponized elves, Alec gives a belligerent word.

"Ho, are you going to do it with me? I can't help you."

That said, Alec showed a single scale of magic.

The illusion of chilli and air burning.

It's a sight to see when a vast array of magic vegetables appear.

You know that the exercise of strength does not make sense.

The elves lay down their weapons and look at the story reluctantly.

"What are you doing here? Bring in strangers.

If you're going to sell the Holy Land, I'll risk my life to eat your throat. "

The elves are turning a serious eye.

I guess if it was just me and Alec, I wouldn't be so vigilant.

This time it's suspicious from the looks of it Bud and

I have a Rimlis dressed as a kingdom nobleman.

I can also snort that the elves are careful.

"What, I didn't want to come my whole life either.

I just needed to cross the spiritual peak. I didn't just visit you as a relay point. "

"... how annoying"

The elves sighed.

Predicting the gap, I look around the elf crowd.

You don't have a familiar face.

I ask one of the elves.

"Speaking of which, where are Isabelle and Jackle?

"Those two are going on an inspection inside the southwest. I hear there's been some magic fluctuations."

"Are you not in the canyon?"

That's too bad.

With Jackle or Isabelle, it's easy to talk through.

What happened to the magic fluctuations?

I care about you too, but first it's right in front of you.

I asked him to express my truthfulness throughout my body.

"We have to go through the canyon to get to the Union. Please, please."

"............... wait a minute"

That's what I said, one of the elves turned around.

And there will be a meeting among the elves that are coming out now.

He's laying low with Gonyo Gonyo, but some of his voice has leaked.

"It's forbidden to let outsiders into the canyon."

'So, you want to get rid of Alexandia?

'Who does it? I don't like it. "

'Forgive me if I'm about to pass, and let me leave immediately -'

Sounds to me, too, naturally means Alec is a loser.

She cringed her fists as she drove away.

Then the next moment...

The elves snorted unanimously as they scratched a cold sweat.

I cough up and one woman tells me to give in.

"... fine.

But if these humans leaked the existence of the canyon outside - Alexandia.

You're to blame. "

"Uhm, come on"

Alec answers with a cool face.

I made it clear that I would take responsibility.

Now you won't just be impotent.

From the expressions of relief of the elves, I could see such thoughts.

All right, let's go.

Elves paving the way.

But Alec gets a decent face.

"No, I'm gonna let you stay here for the night, okay?

"... what?

The elves raised their voices of doubt from the bottom of their hearts.

But Alec also said, "Did I say something strange?" and lean his neck.

"If you're going through the canyon anyway, you better get some rest.

It's not dangerous to cross the mountain at night.

It doesn't seem to accumulate the fatigue of others. "

Alec will look at us for a second.

In fact, I was just hoping to get some rest, too.

Regardless of Bud, who can't see half his face, Limris also looks exhausted.

Walkins, on the other hand, seems as though he's not tired.

Again this servant...... horrible.

In response to what Alec said,

The elves try to stop with their voices trembling.

"... wait a minute. Admittedly..."

"And tomorrow, my son, because I'm staying in the canyon for a while.

Let them use the mansion in the lab. "

"Heh, I'm kidding. Ahhhhhh!

The elves shouted with full force.

That scream, that's just the roar of the soul.

Without rebellion against Alec, they showed rebellion.

I don't just give in to the strong anymore.

It made me feel that way, it was a powerful refusal.

Then, at that moment.

Alec's eyes glistened.

Let's conclude.

Alec's point was made.

No, should I say I forced it through?

The eyes of the demanding elves were completely dead.

"... Whatever you do now"

"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry!

I make soul apologies on Alec's behalf.

Thus, after the efforts of the elves, the decision was made to stay in the canyon.

... Honestly, I'm sorry.
