Episode 729: The Ring That Carved Love
On the night of July 31st, the Great Sky Pavilion......
The evening of the day Lu and the others returned from Fort Aethos.
The dining room at the Great Sky Pavilion holds a debriefing session that combines dinner.
That said, only Gemma and Julia, employees of the Great Sky Pavilion, besides Zeta, the village chief, are in front of the Ludakran Star (Stella) because it is in the form of a brief overview report to the village chief on the exploration of the fort.
"... and that's why"
"I was horrified. Now you can live in peace for the moment."
This is where the results of the search for the fort have just been reported from Luu.
Zeta had long suspected that the fortification was responsible for the village's exposure to demonic threats.
The suggestion was that all the remnants of the orcs or even the immortals (undead) were nesting.
But when he heard that everything had been exorcised by Lu and the others, he stroked his chest down.
"It is only natural to assume that the Kingdom of Valentine is willing to reuse the fort, even if it pays us to do so."
"... will there be a war?
Since the founding of the Kingdom of Valentine, there has been no war with the countries of the South.
"Uh-huh... I can't say for sure, but I don't think I am. It's only on a personal note, and it contains aspirations."
"I don't mind Master Lew's personal opinion. Talk to me."
"Oh, security within the Kingdom of Valentine's has recently deteriorated. It's mainly demonic damage, but recently there's been a move to rethink care for a region that felt abandoned. There was a massive orc outbreak this time. I'm guessing we'll put a guard nearest to Jetre."
Lew's story was not appropriate.
That's what I was talking about the other day when I met the Chancellor, Philip, and when I spoke to Edmond in Bertrand.
"Oh! If so, how reassuring!
"Well, I hope that happens to me too."
A break-in suddenly appeared here.
It's Julia.
"Brother! Are you going to Jetre tomorrow?
"Come on, Julia! Master Lew is talking to the village chief, so stay out of the way!
Gemma scolds, but Julia doesn't mind.
Luu also smiles gently and declares that he will keep his promise.
"Ha! I want to leave early in the morning with Julia. Don't fall asleep."
"Yeah! Good luck getting up early."
Gemma is on top of the Buddha when she sees Julia responding well.
Zeta has no choice but to thank you.
"Thank you! Thank you, Julia."
"Ha ha, village chief. So here's a suggestion..."
"Proposal?"
"When I went to Jetre, I would buy the livestock I lost this time and donate it to the village. I want you to count, but is there any hope?
"Yeah!?
It was an unexpected story for Zeta.
A reckoned, profit-savvy adventurer usually doesn't say anything like this.
But the look on Luu's face is not like he has some kind of lower heart.
"I just wanted to ask you something. No, there will be hope and circumstances in the village"
"Duh, why?
Zeta wanted to know Luu's sincerity.
Because I thought there must be some confusion.
"Ha ha, this time we came to the land at the request of a street blockade (mission) by Oak. I fought with the orcs that were sieging this village because of its ancillary work, but when I calculated it earlier, the rewards were going to be pretty good. It's the money for an irregular job we didn't originally have, and we were lucky. So it's called restitution."
"Or reduction?
Zeta was surprised.
Because I found that there was no back in Luu's words with an uncontrolled smile, and that everything was out of favor.
"Yes! When we're in trouble, we're friends."
"No!"
"Mayor! Let's keep it sweet! Instead, if Master Lew comes to the village again, you should be very welcome."
It was Julia who gave the guidance to Zeta, who was still lost.
I believe that there is no such thing as evil in Lew.
"Julia!"
"Ha! Then it's settled."
"Ha, ha! Thanks! We will accept your favor."
I'm listening to Luu and Zeta and the rest of the clan members have a convincing look on their faces.
I must have decided to talk on my way home.
Lew and Zeta have a lot to discuss.
As a result, he decided to buy 20 cows, 50 pigs, 30 sheep and 100 chickens.
According to Lou, it's worth about 1,000 pieces of gold in monetary terms.
"Wow! So, but I can't believe 1,000 gold coins! Ho, is it really good!? Adventurers make a lot of money, huh?
"Oh, that's all the orcs that attacked me. Isn't that great? And an escort, but I'll arrange this one for you."
"Haha! If you buy all that livestock from Jetre, you won't have to ask to be accompanied by the city's defensemen."
It smelled good while Lew and the village chief were interacting.
This is... herbal.
Gemma appeared with a pot of tea.
"I was brewed with tea leaves received from Master Minmi. Herbal tea, they say it's also specially made for the Art."
"Wow!"
Zeta raises her voice like a girl, in excess of joy.
She loves tea and has no eyes, especially for herbal tea.
This is all the more so because it is rarely available in this peripheral village.
"Ugh, Julia, I'll give you this"
"What? Sister?"
It is some kind of seed that Minmi offered.
Could...
"Sister! I don't think so!
"Ugh, yes! Herbal grass seeds grown by the Aalves. There are many kinds of seeds, so work hard to grow them."
Minmi also gives away pieces of paper that write about cultivation methods and how to turn them into tea leaves with the seeds.
Julia says clearly when she receives it happily.
"Me, I've decided! Make this Tatra a southern herbal attraction! I'll let them raise you as much as they want Tatra herbs!
"Eh! Julia, I'll do that. I love herbs!
Zeta raises her hand seemingly regrettably, but if you look closely, her face is filled with happiness.
The debriefing was at once exciting and concluded.
- Two hours later.
The night in Tatra Village is early and early in the morning.
Zeta was already in bed ready.
I can't stop being excited like a child when I'm reminded of the herbal seeds provided by Minmi from time to time.
A lot more livestock arrives than before it was damaged in a little while.
Future crop harvests are likely to be expected, and it is no exaggeration to say that the future of the village of Tatra is rosy.
Tong Tong!
The door knocked lightly.
It is an unfamiliar knock way.
The villagers shall not come to visit the village chief's self at such times unless it is an emergency.
"Who?"
"Sorry I'm late at night, it's me."
"Oh, Master Lew!
What can I do for you late this evening?
In the meantime, Zeta decided to welcome her.
Zeta, who was dressed in skin, weaves her robe and opens the door.
It was still Luu who stood outside.
"Welcome! Would you like some tea inside?
"No, here. It's too late. I'm here to give you this."
I wonder what it is?
What is on Lew's hand was... a small ring.
Besides, Zeta looks familiar.
"Oh, that!
Strangely enough, it is a Mithril ring that I always wear without leaving my skin.
It was an old ring that Zeta, the first village chief of this village of Tatra, was said to have worn, and all the village chiefs of history were bound to wear it.
When I look at the middle finger of my right hand in a hurry, it is securely attached.
And, when it does, what the hell is the ring that Luu has?
"Oh, I found it at the fort. I thought I'd give this to you softly."
When Zeta receives the ring from Luu, she compares it to her own.
The two rings were still - exactly the same.
"What is this! It still looks just like it. It's even with a letter that's carved. Here, here! Simon and Zeta!
"Yes, it seems... it must have been a pair of rings originally. It's a ring with the pure thoughts of a noble and kind man... take care of it."
…………
Lew smiles calmly and turns his heel back and leaves.
He blended into the darkness, and Zeta dropped him off.
