Gallius left the house and grabbed the shovel as it snowed.

Next to the cabin is a wooden stables bigger and more splendid than that. Inside, there is one hairy long horse, two goats conceded from a goblin, and five hens.

And Ao lives here too, but apparently he went out early in the morning, and he didn't even peek inside.

Begin snowflake at best.

I'm used to this work, too. Just right for exercise after breakfast.

Since he came to Limullesta, the nation of the subpeoples, he was about to cross the third winter.

This period wields fierceness as if General Winter were to squeeze his last strength, and the coldest day of the year ensues.

But after this, the snow will melt, and the spring wind will blow.

Gallius snowed around the front door and around the stables, taking a breath.

"Yahoo, Galius Sue"

Rippi from the cat tribe Warcat came running.

Despite her own fur, she is dressed in multiple ways. My ears were hidden in the yarn hat and only my eyes were out with mufflers.

"Ugh, Sabu. Gallius, come on, do that."

Lippi hurries as he steps.

"I'm ready."

Tell him, Lippi glistened his eyes and jumped into the house.

Boy, praise your shoulders and follow them.

When you enter the house,

"Fluffy, there it is... I knew it was a good snack."

No hat, no muffler, Lippi had her happy face on the table.

Furniture covered with a blanket on a low table and placed a plate on top of it to make it table again. There is a kettle with charcoal inside.

Heating appliances called kotatsu, they came from the golden kingdom, lying or true, further east of the endless forest, just beyond the mountains of the former untouched.

I heard the kingdom soldiers talking during their brave years, and this winter I made them while wandering around.

That was very popular with the Lippi and during the winter they sometimes came with cold gear and stayed there.

However, it is not yet out of the prototype area because it is dangerous to continue using it in confined spaces.

Gallius boiled the fragrant, weakly aromatic herbs into tea and poured them into a cup, adding the blocky hardened honey.

Serve with a small wooden spoon and place on Lippi's nose tip.

Lippi finally took off his hat and muffler, his jacket.

He was a little taller and rounded compared to where we met.

Roll the honey block with a spoon. Half of it melted and spooned tea, breathing again and again before rinsing.

"You're so pompous in your body."

"Is that all you get cold and warm?

"It's a matter of mood."

A bitter laugh leaks at the way you say it without a body or a lid.

"Lilia, aren't you here today?

"Though winter, she's busy, too. Yeah, I don't come every day."

Lilianea is in assistant delegate status in the residential district of Elf. I was definitely busy.

"Come on, I wish I could stick around"

"I think it's premature."

If we had been dealing with each other for nearly three years, we also knew Galius was just as fond of Lilianea.

Understanding that appearance nagging is no longer out of people's common sense, she faces her thoughts directly from the front.

I just had to be cautious because the age of 15 is too early for an elf to marry.

"I think we should hurry up."

"I'm prepared to take the time to change my mind. Either way, it doesn't change my mind that she's important."

It's a waste, but if I could find a good person, I wouldn't mind.

I still feel happier to be of the same race, both she and those around her.

"No, I didn't tell Gallius, Lilia was better." If you don't hurry up, someone's gonna steal it from you, right? I threaten you. "

"You don't have to do anything extra. What about yourself? Not one of those floating stories."

"Hmm... I have an invitation, but you don't feel like it"

Why not? and Lippi arms together and twists her neck.

Warcat is premature, so it's time for her "..." I was no stranger to finding a partner.

By the way, if I had been dating for nearly three years, I would have known Lippi's gender just fine. That, too, is what I want her to meet well, Garius says, disturbs her head.

You two, say you've been muddled silently for a while.

"Wow, wow!"

The howl sounded.

"Ao, right. Were you out?

"Oh. But you're quick to go back even though you went to play"

Gallius stepped out of the cottage and opened the door. Lippi dives to her shoulder.

A big shadow was running over the snow. Beautiful bluish silver fur. A sharp, long horn stretched from his forehead played the light of the sun shining from the clouds.

Ao.

I picked it up initially as small as a dog, but now the more Gallius looks up - about the height of a horse.

And on its back, there was an adorable girl crossing, who had grown two magnificent horns.

"Galius. Eh."

Girl - Kukuru probably waves. That figure is little different from where we met. The Dragon Nation grew slowly throughout their lives.

"If you didn't think you'd be here in the morning, would you have gone to the capital?"

"Ao is amazing! I whistled last night and called it in for a try and it really came this morning!

More than hearing, wasn't there a magical exchange?

I ask that question as I stroke Ao as he bows his head and snuggles up.

"Hmm? 'I called Ao', what can I do for you?

"Yes, I'd like to tell Mr. Gallius something."

Standing talked about in the cold is what, so I invite Kukuru in.

"Master Kukuru, it's been a long time. Yes, go ahead."

Lippi turns the blanket and invites it next door.

Kukuru sat right in the cocktail and looked happy with a "fuzzy" look. She loves cocktails, too.

"So, what do you want to tell me?

Preparing honey tea, Kukuru holds the cup to wrap with both hands and also swings "fuzzy." but quickly tightened his expression and told him.

"The Mid-Terrier Kingdom is doomed."

Gallius rebelled the word for a while before

"" Huh?

Lippi and I spoke up, and I was surprised...
