Dungeon Master Makeup Money (formerly known as Dungeon Master Funding)

A forest that seems to stretch everywhere.

It's a very wide forest.

Aira muttered when she saw the sight in front of her.

I see. You can only see the forest.

What do you mean, outside of the woods?

Instead of answering Aira's question, I summoned the Sapphire Eagle with Summon (Samon) . When summoned, it flew to the sky with the Lord's will, without even receiving instructions.

I could share my senses with the monsters in the labyrinth using Labyrinth Matching . The Sapphire Eagle's sight is visible.

"Huh? What is this..."

It looked like Ira had noticed.

I, Melissa, who was sensitive to magic, and Noel, who had a special sensation, had noticed it immediately after they crossed the dimension.

By synchronizing the senses, Sylvia and Iris also accurately grasped.

"I was aware of something..."

"Maybe..."

It seemed that she had noticed something, and Iris shouted.

Is this a fairy town?!

What, is that?

"I can't believe it! You're an adventurer, but you don't know Fairyland?"

Fairy hometown.

An adventurer who normally needs to go to places where people don't get close at all or where they might step footstep. It is not uncommon to go to a place where there are no people inside and not come back.

But sometimes people who thought they were dead come back when they forgot. Those who had disappeared had vague memories of their time and could not tell where they had been.

However, there was a starch attached to the body of the person who came back that did not know the details. The starch became a valuable ingredient in medicine, and since it had a beautiful color, it naturally became called "fairy powder", and it was believed that it was somewhere where the fairy was.

The place where the fairy is located is "Fairy Home".

It seemed to be the name of a place the adventurer had heard of before.

Speaking of which, I haven't heard much from you since you came to Allister.

"Is it a famous story in Krashel?"

"There were many people in the north who thought they were going to fairy towns."

It may not have reached the Aleister region in the south.

Iris taught me that story while Miel was guiding me. Although it is a famous story, it is not known to the public only among adventurers. It was like a precaution to avoid getting lost in Fairy Home.

I see. That's why fairy powder was so valuable.

Did you know about Melissa?

"I didn't know about Fairy Home." However, I have heard of the name of the fairy powder while investigating the valuable material from the pharmaceutical relationship. ”

I could have picked it up if I had to.

Even if the value is high, we need expenses.

No, I wasn't in a situation where I needed fairy powder.

It is very difficult to obtain. It was also valuable, but because of its limited use, it was unnecessary, so it was not ordered.

"If there's no problem, that's fine."

The only thing to worry about is the fact that this might be the fairy town.

Why did Iris think this was a fairy town?

This

Give me your handkerchief.

The white handkerchief was wrapped in glittering powder.

Is this fairy powder?

Iris nods to my question.

"I saw the real thing for a few years. Still, you can't go wrong with it".

"Where did you pick it up?"

"The ground just past the distortion of the dimension."

Iris knew there was a glow in the grass growing on the ground. When I bowed down and sampled it, I noticed that the grass was not shining, but that the grass had a shining powder attached to it.

A glowing powder. When I saw it before, I wasn't sure because it was from a distance, but it was proved to be fairy powder by Melissa.

You must already have noticed the identity of Atai and the others.

I nodded to Miel's question.

Although the quality of magic power was imprinted on humans, it was clearly different from humans.

If you can show something like "fairy powder" there, you will reach one conclusion.

Fairy, what the hell?

"Correct"

Miel affirms her answer.

A thin, transparent feather resembling a butterfly feather appears from her back. The dense magic power was shaped like a feather, and there was no substance there.

Fairy.

Its existence exists only in tradition, and it is born by condensing its dense magic power into a shape similar to that of a person. Because it's a magical body, even if it slashes down, its arms regenerate, enabling it to strengthen its physical abilities at levels that humans can't.

The reason why the S-rank adventurer was challenged by a mixed opponent was also a fairy.

Why was that fairy the gatekeeper?

The fairies that appear in the legend are confusing, and even if they play pranks, they shouldn't take the initiative to be hostile.

"Of course, there is a reason why I was doing that." If I got lost in this world, I didn't want to be able to easily attract people. "

"This is how we're going to get in, is that okay?"

"You're strong, so no problem."

Miel and the gatekeepers were there to test if the opponent had enough power to set foot in Fairyland. In order to fulfill their grief, they had to have at least more power than the gatekeepers.

And Aira passed the test.

"Is there anyone here who gets lost?"

"I don't know the detailed conditions. However, if the conditions such as" place "," time ", and" human qualities "are met, it seems that you will get lost."

Whether it's an influence that has gotten lost and transcended dimensions or not, the consciousness while in Fairyland is vague, and I can't remember if the fairy cares for it so that I can't run out of strength.

The role of the fairy is to return lost people to the original world. It was easier to solve it with strength considering the strength of the gatekeeper, but the fairy hated to go out and exercise her power from her original personality.

So, what happened?

This time, the dimensional distortion occurred like a ruin.

However, the fact that the fairy who was supposed to be on the other side was working as a gatekeeper and becoming militant is considered intentional. Of course, it was the fairies who intended to do it.

What a tedious imitation of a gatekeeper. Did you have to call on someone who could do it?

If we don't defeat the doorman, we won't be able to get to the other side.

If that happens, I will call a strong person naturally and try to get the gatekeeper to do something about it.

Miel's purpose was not to "let no one pass", but to "let only the strong pass", and the duel was a ritual for selection.

"Obaba will explain that to me."

Miel stopped walking ahead with the guide.

They arrived at a place like a square with a giant tree standing in the middle, and houses were built around the giant tree. Looking idle, when someone comes out of the house, he finds someone he knows and talks to, and a person holding the luggage with both hands enters into a large building.

Everyone who lives there only looks like a human being. However, when I turned my attention to it, I found that it was not a person.

Is everyone here a fairy?

"Yes. Sometimes there are lost people, but there are no people here right now."

I was guided to the fairy town, the world where fairies live.

“Follow me. I'll show you to Obaba."

Can I ask you one question first?

What?

"What's that over there?"

A giant tree stands in the center of the fairy town.

I have seen the same thing before. It is not a picture in a book, but something that exists in reality.

"You mean the god tree? It's like a god watching over all the fairies."
