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

A certain mansion in Aleister.

Fairy hometown... it's been a while since I've heard that name.

Night.

I explained what happened to Louise, who was also a guild master in the adventurer's guild in the capital.

I went to the dimensional distortion that seemed to be connected to the ruins, and after joining other adventurers, I won the duel, and was invited to the other side and set foot in the fairy homestead - the fairy homestead.

Moreover, fairy townships had problems in fairy townships, and it was not a place where they could benefit from the usual exploration of ruins.

So, what do you want?

Mr. Louise's eyes are on me and my companion, Iris.

After the battle with the ant-shaped monster, while I was busy cleaning up after herself and explaining to the fairies, Iris was the only one who investigated the world with the fairy homeworld. I didn't have the time to look into the least, but there were a few things that bothered me.

I want you to tell me about the fairy.

We know too little about fairies.

Even Iris, who knew best, thought it was a rumor, and the others, including me.

But the fairy was real.

Wasn't it the monster that attacked Fairyland that you were asked to kill?

"Just intercepting it doesn't make sense."

It's been going on for days, if only to surpass the raid of that day.

If we are to solve the problem, we need to do something about it in the fundamental part.

"I think you need to know about the fairy."

Why?

"The god tree in the fairyland is bigger than the god tree in the Elf Forest."

Still, as long as it was easy to investigate, the Divine Tree's ability remained unchanged.

"Elves and fairies living next to the god tree. When I thought about what the difference was between the two, I thought," I don't think it's going to change either. "

Elves and fairies are alike.

That was the last conclusion we came to.

"First of all, I won't say no, but I don't know about fairies either." I can still make some guesses by talking to an adventurer who seems to have gone missing as a guild master and has returned from a fairy hometown. "

That's fine with me.

"... they must be essentially the same as the Elves."

As a guildmaster, Louise had looked into Fairyland to track down the missing.

The first thing she noticed was the fairy powder (fairy powder) that was only available in fairy townships. As time passed, the nature changed, and the Alchemist obtained by trading did not notice, but the fairy powder had properties similar to the magic power of the elves. Ms. Louise, who was able to make early contact with the missing person who had returned, noticed the slightest trace.

The question is, why is there such a big difference in appearance?

The Elves are long-lived, and even if they are skilled at magic, they are close to human nature.

However, there are only females in the fairy world, and the number of people is increased by the benefits of the world tree, and it is said that when the lifespan comes, it disappears without trace.

“I think there's a clue to the problem.”

"I'd like to help if I can." Even though I'm retired, I still have a good hand. "

Louise's influence has not faded since she retired. I didn't know how to do it, but more adventurers of higher ranks than before were stationed in Aleister, diving deeper into the labyrinth.

Louise was known to have influenced the situation.

The labyrinth was bustling, and Louise was truly grateful.

“You don't have to worry about that.”

"Besides, to get there, you need to go through the dimensional distortion." I don't think the gatekeeper will let us through no matter how much we introduce her. "

"In that way, you seem to be convinced that there is no other entrance." Until now, I thought that fairy township was somewhere in this world. "

Unfortunately, we know that this is not the case.

"We are using our magic right after we reach the fairyland world."

At first, I wanted to see the God Tree in the distance. After that, they were allowed to explore the surroundings, and the necessary information, such as the terrain, was minimal.

Among other things, Iris noticed the stars she saw when she looked up at the sky.

"When Philip and the others got lost at night, they were taught to rely on the position of the stars to figure out the direction. So the stars that should be marked are in my head."

We didn't mind because we rarely visited remote places at night, but before she became one of us, Iris had to keep herself from relying on her knowledge and skills.

"The stars in that world are completely different from the stars in this world"

It wasn't like there was a fairy home hidden somewhere.

Connected to further afield, or with different dimensions hidden there.

Either way, there was no other way to visit Fairyland than to take advantage of dimensional distortions.

"In that case, I guess I can only give you advice." As I said before, the essence of a fairy is no different from an elf. So, what do you think is making a decisive difference between elves and humans? ”

Once upon a time, when a Magic Disaster occurred, the Elves escaped the Disaster by being next to a Shinobi tree that purifies the environment. At the same time, it was the elves that changed their nature from humans so that they could adapt to the magic power of the Divine Tree.

That fact is not known to the elves. Our source is the Labyrinth Core. The Labyrinth Core, which has kept its personality intact for a long time, has limited information, but it does not forget what it has learned.

Divine tree, is that it?

The reason why I made a fairy into a fairy is because of the god tree.

I still have no choice but to investigate.

However, it is not easy.

The fairy holds the Divine Tree sacred, and usually prohibits someone from even approaching it, so it's unwelcome if it's inadvertently close.

How hard is it?

"It can be tough. However, I have already received a request.”

"You seem very motivated." Is it warm? "

"I'm not the one who did it."

Look at Iris.

It seemed like I had a lot to think about since I set foot in Fairyland, so I spent more time in silence.

A friend of mine had vanished into Fairyland before.

I didn't really care, but I had no idea where and how to get there.

I was able to finally get hold of the clue.

Even though you don't care, do you still care?

"But..."

"Missing husband. I couldn't see my wife left behind." After all, I couldn't wait for my husband to come home, and my wife left the city to escape. That's all I'm talking about. "

It's not uncommon for an adventurer to go missing.

That's why I couldn't allow a man who couldn't remember anything to come back a few years later.

"I want a reward, but one of my people cares more about Fairyland than that." Then all I have to do is try my best to find out. ”
