I Said Make My Abilities Average!
112 Ruins
After a breath, the beasts were kept away and three discussions were held with three ancient dragons: the 'Red Vow' Plus, Dr. Couleleira. The place is near that great hole. The ancient dragons can't fit into the building, so there's no choice but to be outdoors.
Beredetes, sitting face to face with the Miles, was depressed now that the exaltation from the battle had left. That's big.
And as a young man or an ancient dragon, shallow and bloody, that Wens grows up with is a pretty serious illness.
Sherala, on the other hand, looked fine. He said that he had just surrendered if he thought there was danger to him, and he seemed quite reluctant.
"First, I'll be the first to check.
I'm pretty sure it was you, the ancient dragons, who ordered the beasts to work here? And it is not the arbitrariness of the three of you, but the totality of your clan. "
"That's right."
Beledettes answers miles of questions honestly. Apparently, he was gonna be honest with me. Is it discipline, because it's not a big deal, or do you think it's okay to be known like a human being?
... I just hope you don't think about blocking your mouth later, or something.
"What is its purpose?
Discussion or questioning, anyway, the delegate on the 'Red Vow' side was to be served by Miles. There was no one else who might be able to ask the right questions.
Dr. Cooleilaia will also join the question if necessary, but now I'm still leaving it to Miles to watch.
The representative of the ancient dragon side is the ancient dragon named Beredetes, who seems to be the oldest. The other two, so far, didn't seem to intend to actively join the conversation.
"It's just an excavation investigation."
Beredetes replies so, but it is possible to combine "do not spit" with "do not speak the truth". This is why the questioner's knowledge, perception, and power were questioned in such cases.
"What is the object?
"... it's a relic"
Answer slightly delayed. And it wasn't the answer. The purpose of the excavation survey of the site is the site.
Sure, it wasn't a lie, but it was an obvious answer.
But there's no way Miles is convinced by such an answer.
"What were you looking for? Is it a treasure, is it some information, is it a tool, is it a demon king, is it an evil god, is it a demon, is it a weapon, is it a magic object, is it a machine"
…………
silent Beredetes. Apparently, he was struck by what he did not want to say.
"If you don't talk to me there, I won't talk to you. How do you think the humans would accept that the beasts, and the beasts with the whole clan of ancient dragons behind them, are breaking into human space and doing something suspicious? If you think it's an act of aggression, a total war will begin. It's a tremendous killing of beasts and ancient dragons versus humans."
'We don't mean that!
"Whether you're going to or not, that's what you're doing.
One day, suddenly, humans, elves and dwarves joined forces to break into the ancient dragon's territory without permission. And start some suspicious construction. The ancient dragons who went to see how it went were attacked, one after the other missing. Still, if the humans say 'no offense' without explaining it, can you leave it untouched?
If that's the case, I'll go around touching the humans immediately. Whatever you do in the territory of the ancient dragon, you can say. Oh, can you write and wear a statement to that effect now?
"Hey, what are you doing stupid..."
"It's exactly what you're doing, isn't it?
…………
Silence, Beredetes.
"Your reply determines whether you can pull the trigger of a full-scale war or avoid it. Now, think about it and answer me."
………………
After a time that felt very long, but would in fact have been only a few dozen seconds, Beredetes finally opened his mouth.
"... It's a Lost Civilization"
"Huh?"
'It is said that there was a country in this world with a very advanced civilization in the distant past. It's just a legend..., no, they thought it was just a legend, but that's...'
"Is that it?
Miles urges Beredetes, who once again interrupted the word.
"Apparently, evidence has been discovered."
"Yeahhh!!
On the side, Dr. Cooleilaia shouted out loud.
"Ma, Ma, no way, you discovered the real proof of a super ancient civilization, a 'prehistoric civilization'!
"And you know what, Clay!
"Don't abbreviate me funny!
Then, Miles, who ran into stories because of his habits, was pissed off by the Doctor.
"Prehistoric civilization. It's a legendary country, said to have flourished a long time ago.
In that country, it is said that people could see and hear the rest of the world while sitting in their homes, and that diving at the bottom of the ocean, flying in the sky, could even get those stars in the sky.
There was no hunger, no battle, that it was exactly like the heavenly realm where the gods lived...
Humans are losing their inheritance because they change generations quickly, but among species with long life expectancies, ancient dragons, elves, spirits, they still have inheritance... "
of Dr. Cooleilaia's description, in the part called "Flying in the Sky," Lena, which attracted her face.
And the miles.
"Yes, are you there, Spirit! What about the fairy?
It was eating on strange places.
"It doesn't matter now!
And the Doctor pissed me off.
"Anyway, it's a big discovery, if that's true!
Hey, what kind of evidence is that? Where did they find you? The situation! "
Ancient dragon Beredetes was also a puzzled face to Dr. Cooleireia, who would pop a bubble out of his mouth and recruit him.
'And I don't know. We are not professional scholars. Because we, the ancient dragons, are not going to investigate directly all over the place, we are merely liaison officers to check the working status of the demons and beasts who are letting us investigate everywhere instead, or to check if we discover something.
And this time, they even pushed me to babysit......, no, nothing!
Beredetes, bewitched by Sherala, hastily clouded his words.
"Anyway, there's been a report of discovery from the beasts who are entrusting the excavation investigation here, and Wens, my apprentice, and Sherala's three dragons, who forced the chief and elders to gobble the companion. That's all. And as a result of the confirmation, it turns out that this place is" hazy "'
"Hassle?"
'That's right. This was a much newer era than the "lost civilization" and was merely made by those who sanctified and worshipped the "lost era". The temple-like hall where it was discovered only contained an illustration of why on the wall, which made no sense.
I don't need you here anymore. The beasts make them pull away. So, there will be no more problems!
Beredetes tried to wrap up the story with it, but the inquisitor wouldn't wholesale it.
"That's all you've got to do here, right? So now, you're gonna do something similar somewhere else? Breaking and entering again, capturing the nearest one?
…………
"And not only the Beast Man, but the Demon Clan is also leaping," he said?
………………
To the penetration of the mile, Beledetes realizes that he has leaked extra information and shuts up.
"And for what, are you looking for that 'lost civilization' and the ruins of it? Its purpose is…"
"I don't know! Even if I knew, yes, there's no way I could talk about anything!
Sure, you're right. Prisoners also have the right to remain silent, and I guess the only honest thing you're telling me is that you've decided to 'talk this far won't be a problem' to avoid the fight. Besides, maybe you don't really know. The lower end isn't always taught everything.
Because of the look of the ancient dragon and the way it talks, it somehow looks great, but from earlier stories, apparently, this ancient dragon was not in a big position, but the lower end of the use run, still young. The apprentice and the lady dragon who just followed with interest, needless to say.
It seems impossible to gather any more information, and capturing the ancient dragon and handing it over to the lord seems a little impossible again. Besides, it would be catastrophic if we really turned the clan of ancient dragons against our enemies.
Things are a hundred times more important to figure out how to pull them off than when to start. Miles knew that well from the news, stories, warfare training, etc. he had seen and heard in his previous life. And our task now was not to arbitrarily capture the ancient dragons or pull the trigger of an interracial war in just one C-rank hunter's minute. Never.
That is up to the great men of the country to decide, and it is up to those who are in that position or who have been duly rewarded for it to do so. At least, it's not the kind of job that four girls who get dozens of gold coins do.
"... ok. Now, we'll show you what we found, and then we'll pull it off. If you're no longer needed here, withdraw from here as soon as you can. Hopefully, before a soldier or something comes from the Wang capital, it won't have to be a hassle.
Reporting to the Lords will be done in proper fractures so that the problem does not get bigger, but perhaps the report will go to the Royal Palace, so I will mention the likelihood of similar things happening again. That might prevent the encounter from suddenly starting a battle. Is that all right?
Beledettes nodded after conceiving for a while.
"So please."
As Miles looked left and right, Lena, Mavis, Pauline, and Dr. Couleia also nodded.
The Doctor apparently decided so more as an 'investigator hired by the Lords', as a researcher and in his position as an elf clan. Well, naturally, naturally.
"Now, Mr. Sherala, I'd like your guidance, please."
"Uh, me?
It is a suddenly shaken and surprising Sherala, but a natural judgment as a mile.
Diving underground in front of three ancient dragons who do not know when they will be attacked in a flirtatious manner, or with Beredetes, who is highly combative. This is an option, an option that seems the weakest and takes Sherala, who works best as a hostage, no, dragon quality.
Miles, just in case, kept the barrier open to everyone without chanting.
"So shall we go..."
