Gate of Amitilicia Online

Episode 59: Condolences

Dry adds, that's a name that often comes out as a plant spirit. [Botanical Knowledge] So, as Zachris said earlier, it comes out under the official name Cuisine Tree. They say it's a tree with a high affinity for the Spirit. I'm not sure what that means. A tree liked by the Spirit, is that okay?

As we approached, we also began to see details. You look like a broad leaf. The branches are also quite thick and wide spread, with blue leaves thriving.

"Is the Cuisine Tree some kind of special tree?

"The tree itself is not unusual. The number is small but it grows normally in this forest. but there's always this tree in the elf settlement. For us, it's a living tree with the settlement."

I wonder if I'll plant it when I build a settlement. But then, how long has this tree and settlement been supposed to be here? I can't tell you anything because I don't know how fast the Cuisine tree is growing, but you're a pretty big guy.

"But why are we putting this tree in the settlement?

"It's easy for spirits to gather in this tree. Tree sperm, of course, gathers lots of earth sperm. The land is enriched by lots of tree and earth sperm. Many trees grow and crops grow well."

If you just ask what it is, don't make the land sound right for agriculture. [Botanical Knowledge] So all I had to say was that the tools made of this tree give correction to spiritual magic...... oh, more items.

But wait, okay? Now that we're talking about it, it seems less beneficial to elves living in the ocean. Around there, what do you think?

"Is it also in the settlement of sea elves?

"There is. We're talking about weighing in on the woods and the oceans to get food. It's no different that they also live with the benefit of the Cuisine Tree"

Does it mean that when I say sea elves, I'm not completely out of the woods?

Anyway, one day when I'm building a field, I'll try planting it nearby. I may grow up and reap better.

The settlement itself is not that big, so it was only a matter of time before we arrived at the Cuisine Tree.

Um, once again nearby, it's still big. The thickness of the trunk, I thought about 3 meters earlier, but you have about 5 meters. I wonder if I could live in a tree if I slipped through the contents of this.

Other than this one, no emerald trees have grown. I mean, all those big trees I saw when I climbed the tree trying to find this place were the same tree? It looked like a lot of tall trees.

At the front, the mouth is open about two meters vertically and horizontally. There was a statue inside. Is that a god statue? Elves can be a race that doesn't believe in God, depending on the work, but I wonder if GAO elves have faith.

Yeah, well, GAO has religion, too. Polytheism as a form. The temple may only worship certain gods, or it may worship multiple gods. Some priests serve their respective gods.

And in fantasy, there can often be magic rooted in such beliefs. A monk or something can use healing magic. but the GAO does not confirm the magic of its lineage at this time. Nor does it exist in the skills list.

I hear a lot of players complained about this. Such a recovery job would be mandatory for fantasy, he said. Here was the operation's answer to that.

"It is the power of God with faith. There is no reason to use it for those who do not believe in its existence. '

Are you convinced that I am a table talker? There is a doctrine by God that TRPG, and it can be a constraint on behavior, and if it gets to a high level, it can require the behavior it deserves.

But this way of running it, if you have faith, you can use it. So there are rumors that it exists as a hidden skill. In fact, some of the books I read in the Great Library still contain stories about people who embody the miracle of God. Nevertheless, the available residents have not been confirmed at this time. It's just unconfirmed because there's no player to go to the temple, maybe it usually exists.

Either way, in the sense of restoration, it is not a major problem because there is a cure magician's cure curse, and even spiritual magic has restoration magic by water and earth sperm. There's a potion.

Well, that's fine.

Zachris now talks to all the other elves in front of the Cuisine Tree. Kurt's body has already been transferred inside a hole dug in front of the emerald tree. The dirt I was replacing the coffin was out there, so I guess that means it stays peeled out in the hole.

What am I supposed to do, by the way? Even if the funeral starts, there's nothing I can do about it. I haven't had any meetings in particular. Really just join in, what is it?

The number of elves is increasing. They say there are a total of 104 elves in this settlement. That's quite a few minus the number left on the lookout. I didn't know you were going to see this many elves at once. Would Elfsky be happy to see this sight?

Elves that mostly look like youthful youth, but some look like children's elves and presbyterians. I asked Zachris that the rate of growth of the elves is not much different from that of the people until they become youth, and it is extremely long until they start to grow old. So there can be no legal lollies in GAO elves. It would be unfortunate information for both the perverted gentlemen of the world. I don't have any damage.

"Guest"

That's how I heard so much, one elf came over here. It's a male elf that starts to get a little wrinkle in his face. The outfit is somewhat dignified even though it is no different from other elves. Maybe he's the head of the settlement.

"How can I thank you this time?"

I'm so unfamiliar with being able to bow my head like this. A bunch of elves came to say hello to me earlier. That's not just Kurt's family, either. I know it's important to them, but it doesn't really come with me.

"Uh, it's the result of whims and coincidences, so you're in trouble if you're so awed"

So I just had to answer that. But the length (tentatively) shook his head sideways.

"As a result, Kurt was able to return to the village without being invisible and decaying somewhere in this forest. Our elves are long-lived, but the birth rate is low. So take care of your people. We're family, even if we're not connected."

In the words of the long (tentative), the elves finally got to the point of attitude. I was simply going to turn over a member of the village. But it wasn't. I handed over my family. That's a lot to be thankful for.

"Can that be considered an awareness of an entire species called Elves?

"That's right. It's not a limited story to this village. No one will ever forget it, even if they are one of those leaving the village."

So this is the GAO elf. I don't mean to be reluctant or humble, but I think I'd rather take it honestly than figure out how the elves think. But before that.

"Uh. First of all, may I ask your name and your position in this settlement?

With that said, the chief (tentatively) opened his mouth after blinking his eyes. Wouldn't it be an accidental facial elf or something valuable?

"I'm Joaquim. I'm the head of this village."

I knew it was a long fit. Then I'll have to come with a lot of attitude.

"I say Fist. I'm a Gentile adventurer. This is my partner Quinn."

Introduce yourself and Quinn. Oh, think about it, should I have treated Zachris and the others with respect because they would be older than me. But not now... well, okay.

Called by the other elves, the village chief walks toward the Cuisine Tree when he bows his head. Apparently, we're all set.

Well, what kind of funeral would that be?

The funeral itself was performed by the following procedure:

First a declaration of initiation was made by the village chief, and what the dead were. An elf named Kurt, apparently a young elf in the village. Even so, he seems older than me.

Here, they told me I took Kurt. The elves, including the children, bowed their heads to me. Mr. Joaquim said before the funeral, but your consciousness is penetrating properly on the kids, too.

The next thing you know, a participant throws flowers into the tomb, making it a farewell greeting. Zachris told me that I usually see dead faces and donate flowers. This time he had become a corpse (zombie), and since the corpse is quite damaged, few people seemed to see him dead.

Then pray. After the chief has spoken the words of prayer, both hands together for silent prayer. In the words of this time, it was found that the statue of the god worshipped in our midst was Alzafos. God of the earth in Amitilicia. A god who directs the earth and the plants, a god who also possesses the position of a rich god and a farming god.

When it was over, firewood was put into the tomb and pine lights lit with fire were distributed to several people. That was given to me, too. Thank you. Between them, it seems that whoever sees death will be the guide of his soul. In this case, I'm the one who freed Kurt from the undead.

The elves with the pine lights started calling out to the fire elves, so I imitated it too. A flame emitted simultaneously from the pine lights jumped into the grave and burned the body. Fire was strong, of course, but the firewood burned well. Looks like they used fatty trees.

Why doesn't it cook normally, to prevent it from being made undead? It sounds like we're talking about another village in the distant old days, but it seems that the elves we buried have been zombied or something, and measures since then. Well, with that firepower, the bones would collapse considerably, and they wouldn't be skeletonized.

Wait until the fire is out to cover the soil and fill the grave. Born in the village and raised with the benefit of the Cuisine tree, the elf appears to be the food for the Cuisine tree after death, which again benefits the village. I also feel like being a corpse is more nutritious, but if there's a reason ahead, I guess I can't help it. Even calcium is necessary for growing plants.

There are no grave markers. Can Cuisine Tree also be considered a tomb mark? This concludes the funeral.

My house is Buddhist, and the funeral is Buddhist. That's all I know. Without an overnight stay, I thought it would be simple to call the funeral of an elf who would not have a scripture with a temple and attendee. The method of cremation was flashy though.

But if you do this, it doesn't mean you're superior. These things naturally vary according to religion and its sects. Well, I never thought it was set this far in the game.

The elves who were in the queue scatter. Among them, the women are traveling on small runs.

"Is there anything else after this?

"Oh. Dinner with the deceased."

When asked by Zachris, such an answer. That kind of thing is here, too. What do you mean, the women were ready?

But that's the end of the funeral itself, right? Then is it time to resign?

"Bye, Zachris. We should probably go home."

Real convenience, too. I'll be back in Zvand from now on. It'll be just in time when I log out.

"Are you leaving already? Slow down a little bit. I haven't even been able to thank you for this one yet."

Zachris trying to hold me back. No, even if they say so.

"I'm glad to hear it, but I have my own convenience. We need to get back to the city."

"Well... then you can't say you can't... but you can't leave without doing anything..."

Um, are you being presumptuous or serious about something? I wish I didn't have to worry so much. First of all, I don't know anything about the deceased. I have no place to be if I'm present for a meal after this. I'm interested in eating. I'm very curious about what an elf dish is like.

It sounds like I'm sorry I had to do something over there. Looks like the elves listening to our conversation are wondering what's going on...

All right, then here's what we'll do.

"I'm pulling up for today. Instead, can I come back here? I mean, thank you."

"I told you there was nothing wrong with coming here. No thanks."

Yeah, I thought you'd say that. So there's a continuation.

"No, next time I come, I want you to stay here."

"What?"

Zachris floats a question mark wonderfully.

"I want to know more about the elves. I don't know what you're eating or what you're doing when you're hunting. I want to see the life of an elf"

"Is that okay with you?

"Oh, of course, that doesn't mean you can expose it to confidential information."

Raw information on elves in GAO. That's what you get. There will be nothing like this from a player's point of view. Naturally, there are some things that we can't talk about in a customary way, but it will be enough for us to deal with normally. Me, it's better than getting loaded with gold.

"Okay. If that's the case, let's wait for our next visit."

Zachris nodded as he was convinced. The same goes for the surrounding elves. Oh, man, you got it figured out.

"Then just give me a moment."

That said, Zachris called on the wind elite to start some conversation. Wind voice, I guess. I think I'm telling someone to bring something.

After a while, an elf woman came here.

It's my wife, Maille.

An elf woman who bows her head over here with an introduction by Zachris. Zachris, were you a wife beloved...... Ugh, I can't believe I envy you...... I do...

Maille is a skinny, mysterious beauty. If you look at it this way, female elves are closer to the image I have of an elf than male elves. However, Maille's chest armor is there. The female elves we saw in the settlement also had a difference in volume, so apparently, GAO elf women are not lactating as a racial feature.

"This way, please"

Maille offers a large leaf wrap.

"What's this?

"It wraps up one of the dishes to serve at this later dinner party. Earlier, you said you were interested in our meal, so I asked you to bring it. This is all I was able to do, so I hope it fits the people's mouth."

When I hear it as I receive it, such an answer. Well, I'm glad to hear that.

"And then we'll do this too"

Said Zachris took the leaf wrap out of his hip pouch.

"This one's just a portable meal, but I guess you're interested in this, too?

"Oh, thank you."

"Okay, I'm waiting for another visit. Be sure to come."

"Oh, not right away, but definitely coming"

We made a deal, and me and Quinn left Elf's village behind.

Well, on the way back to Zvand. Naturally, I am concerned about the contents of what was given to the souvenirs. I hope it fits your mouth, but it's the same human type of food. It won't be something you can't eat. Aside from whether it suits my taste preferences.

"I think I'll pinch it for a second"

Stop and sit with the appropriate tree on your back, try to open the wrap. Quinn's gazing intriguingly, too. Well, I wonder what's coming out.

Large and small wraps, I tried to open both.

○ Baked Bee Kids

7 stars

Giant Wasp larvae boiled in rock salt, then jetted, wrapped in para leaves and baked.

○ Dried Black Wolf Meat

7 stars

Exhausted from black wolf meat and dried meat.

……………………… Ooh?
