Forty-second dig: fox and answer
Fox and Answer
side: kaya
I couldn't do anything.
I was looking at a burning village.
I don't have the power to get my worn out body up, I just lay there like no other...
In the village, he is even said to be a candidate for the next vigilante.
Martial arts, witchcraft, and sober command skills were also quite proud of themselves.
And my lover was in the village, too.
He's childhood friendly, he teases men about his strength, but he's very sweet.
I was happy. A little, discreet, but hardly hungry.
It should have been a village where serene times flowed...
But one day.
... The Virgin of Elge visited the village and everything burned down.
No, technically, after the Virgin of Elju visited our village and left, soldiers from the same Rochelle country visited and looted it.
They came to dispose of us because they found out we were connected to the Garz Country.
I didn't know what that meant. I wondered why they would attack me.
There's no way this village would do that!!
I responded desperately to let everyone in the vigilante and the villagers escape.
The Fox are a particularly rare and magical species among the Beasts.
The exceptional Fox Clan is dominated by witchcraft, weaving physical arts and becoming a far-away all-purpose warrior.
Still, the number was overwhelmingly low, and there was no easy way to do it.
As the captain and I were desperate to the end, knocking down a number of soldiers, a man in luxurious clothes came from behind.... Poke your sword at my loved ones.
Taking hostages, the coward has made demands.
"Kill the man beside you. I'll guarantee the safety of this man and you. I am the Minister of the Rochelle Country. Loire Esha. Same with the other villagers. The safety of the people we're protecting here will be assured if we kill the man."
What the hell... you think? From further afield, they will be held hostage.
There were most of the villagers in this village. It's a small village, less than 100 people.
Even I can tell right away who's not here.
Think outside of the body of a fellow rolling here, four or five.
"If you're still resisting. You will recognize this villager entirely, as an interlocutor of the Garz nation. I mean, execute him on this occasion."
We didn't have a choice anymore.
Even though I knew it was a trap and a lie, I had to make demands.
In the end, almost all the villagers killed.
... a young daughter survived, but a few died on the spot as comforters.
The rest was sold as slaves.
"... Ya!! Kaya!! Hold on!!
"... sorry. Leave me. We're both gonna get caught."
And I dream of this dream again.
It was amazing at this time, even though I'm usually poor.
My childhood lover runs through the woods holding me.
Still, your health doesn't last indefinitely.
His breath gets rough.
The moment I understood they were all going to kill me.
A village magician cast a flash of magic all at once and closed his eyes.
I escaped with childhood training, too.
You expected it, arrows poured down like rain from around you, and only a very few were able to escape.
The previous battle and the wounds on the run had already made me almost physically weak.
So at least I wanted him to help.
But...
"I was over here!! That's the one I was resisting to the end of earlier!! Enclosure!!
"Kaya, I'll protect Kaya!! Run..."
An axe was piercing his head.
Someone from the enemy must have thrown it.
Keep it up, fall down with him when he stops moving.
"This woman is worn out, but you're an upper-ball. Killing him like this doesn't make it worth it. Treat them and sell them!!
A man who said Loire grabs my hair and pulls it to look at my face.
Oh, I hear a thousand cuts in my hair that he told me was beautiful.
"What will this man do?
"There's no way I can live with an axe on my head. Throw it away."
be separated from him.
Put your strength into the hand you were holding and make your last resistance.
But they also wield that power lightly, leaving him behind.
Tears flood out of my eyes. I won't stop.
"... whoa!!
Wake up in a dim room.
Where were we?
I look around and finally notice Tori and Riel getting into view.
"... Inn... Ka"
Yes, this is an inn at the bottom of the dungeon.
It's a private room given to the Dungeon Master.
But most members gather in someone's room and sleep between 3 and 5 people.
I think there were some perfectly luxurious private rooms.
It's my private room, but I'll just use one even if Tori and Riel are asleep.
The private rooms are mainly made up of three rooms. Did Yuki say 10 tatami, 8 tatami, 8 tatami?
He says, ten tatami is the living room, eight tatami is the bedroom. And the last eight tatami is the hobby room.
Plus it has a toilet and a simple kitchen. Closet? There is also.
The bath says, "Are you stupid about your own bath or something at the inn? Are you going to die?" He didn't wear it for any reason.
"... water"
After all those dreams, they don't make me nervous enough to go back to sleep right away, either.
Get out of the futon so Tori and Riel never wake up.
Go to the kitchen and pour water into the glass.
"... luxury. This is going to be a very luxurious happy place."
People get used to it, Yuki said, but it seems so.
Just six days. Still, I'm no longer surprised by the convenience of the kitchen or this facility.
And I get it.
This luxury, convenience, makes people happy who will surely live here.
That's not all, if you're going to run this dungeon under Yuki's policy, the people who live there can choose what they want, with their own hands.
This dungeon is also a very effective fortress against external enemies, unless Yuki or we solidify our personal appetite.
"... so we need to get rid of personal feelings as best we can.... You can't bring contention into this dungeon"
Tell yourself.
The next day I came here, I found out why my village had been burned and what caused it.
Master Elju was being danced by the Loire, supported by the Holy Land of Litea, to act in a way that incited war.
No, Loire had deliberately burned the towns and villages Erge had stopped by and brought them into a state of war as the work of the Garz nation.
So that day. Eventually, I couldn't help but hate Master Elju, who appeared before me.
At that time, the Loire was disposed of.
The only thing I could call my vendetta was Master Elju, who was in front of me.
Millie threw hot water, screamed, and gathered everyone's gaze, though.
I was also held back by Tori and Riel.
But Master Elju was also bowing his head to Millie to apologize for what he thought to himself.
That's why I'm not talking about forgiveness.
It was surprising, I thought it was the same as the Loire.
Then Master Elju asked me to help him find what he needed to do to make amends for him and bow his head to us.
"... I don't know, things go crazy"
Yes, Master Elju is a stranger.
I was desperate to ask forgiveness or just flinch, but it wasn't.
Somehow, I guess she was doing what she thought was right too.
I also heard about Mr. Maub and his relationship.
She lowered her head and apologized to the person who tried to make herself a slave, assault and comforter.
... hell, a flower garden.
"... I'm sweating. Bath."
Drink water and notice that your body is wet with sweat.
Even if I sleep like this, it's me, so let's go take a bath to change my mind.
Yes, I'm sneaking around the room with my imaginary yukata.
"Ah."
"... ah"
When I went into the stripper, someone was taking off their yukata.
Who do you think it is...
"Kaya... was, wasn't it?
I should say another one of my enemies, Master Lulua was there.
She calls out to spy on my mood.
…
"... excuse me. Sounds like you're interrupting. I'm leaving..."
"... it doesn't matter"
That's all I say, take off your yukata beside her and go straight to the bathroom.
"... I'm not coming in."
"No, I'm sorry to disturb you"
"... nothing, you don't need my permission"
We get awkward air from each other, but more than I said no, we don't even distance ourselves poorly, wash our bodies, and grab onto the hot tub together.
In the sky... fake, but beautiful night sky is spreading.
Silence ensues.
"... why are you taking a bath at this hour?
Somehow, I asked Master Lulua a question.
"Hey, you're thinking. … I was wondering what was going on."
Oh, well.
I had a drink with myself about this dungeon, but is it tough for Master Lulua?
Unlike Master Elju, he is not protected at the request of the Rochelle State.
I'm in the way, so I was cut off, I was about to be assassinated, and I rolled in here.
In a way. Just like me. I'm here because I lost everything.
When I thought about that and was silent, did Master Lulua get awkward...
"... do you hate me?
"Yeah, as much as I'd like to kill you on this occasion"
I will answer her questions firmly.
This feeling is not false.
"... but one day, Master Lulua. I wish I could forgive Master Elju."
"What do you mean?
"... whoever cared about me will surely not laugh at you for killing you"
……
That's what I noticed.
Oh, you're still here.
"... I... a loved one wants to live the way he laughs at me.... yet, I was left. I thought I lost it... all"
Tears spill out of my eyes.
"... are you okay?
Master Lulua sees me crying and calls out.
Yeah, she's nothing wrong with herself.
Well, I guess not as the top of the country.
"... okay. Thank you, Master Lulua. Thanks to you, I can remember.... I thought the village, everyone, loved ones, lost everything about me, but it wasn't."
That's what I say and meditate my eyes.
I can't easily remember before, I remember the smiles of villagers and loved ones.
"... I must have lost it. I still have memories of you all here, certainly. Everyone in the village must look subtle, no matter what the vengeance"
Yes, dyeing this hand with vengeful blood, everyone in the village, he won't deny it, but he'll look subtle.
Because he was sweet.
Then I'll live the way they laugh. I'm sure that's because I should be happy too.
Yeah, maybe we'll keep dreaming about the sight of him and the village getting burned.
But it's not even enough to dye yourself into revenge.
Was this how Mr. Maub and the others felt?
No, Mr. Maub and the others should be awkward for a good amount of rambling around.
"… will rise first"
"Oh, yes."
That being said, I leave Master Lulua and go up from the hot tub.
I feel like I can sleep well already today.
"... Dear Lulua. I lost them all, and I still had things left."
……
"So Master Lulua must have something left too. I think finding it will solve your problem."
I don't understand her troubles.
But I'm sure he'll stay.
Something that convinces me from the bottom of my heart to decide what she's going to do.
"... my, remaining, things..."
