The fall of Zoltan is short.

Despite the fact that they are less frequent to get herbs than before, they had no time to feel the autumn on the mountain, and the leaves had fallen, turning into a winter mountain that felt somewhat lonely.

"While there is no snow, the number of medicinal plants available in winter is limited."

Winter is winter, and polyp mushrooms, which are a remedy for colds, snow vines that are effective against foul fouling from wounds, and gray starfish grass are still available.

However, it is painful to be unable to obtain raw materials for high-demand medicines such as herb, which is used as a hemostat and disinfectant, and leaves of the body, which is an antidote.

In the meantime, we will have to recover these two herbs as much as possible.

"I want to make a greenhouse so that it can be secured in the winter to some extent."

Talk to Gons when you return.

For now, I'm focusing on collecting herbs.

I hope they can help if Chimairas are watching.

He glanced at Chimera, who was far away and asked me, and she fled in a hurry.

I'm Tise. It used to be an assassin in the past, but now he's just a head-woman.

The cause is, of course, the hero.

"I'm just a traveler, not suspicious."

The brave explains to the Zoltan gatekeeper.

Not bad, not bad.

The hero was carrying a Greater Giant Frog, which was likely to be about 500 kilometers.

why?

The time I had been giving bribes while explaining the lie to the gatekeeper should have been about 10 minutes.

It's been less than 15 minutes.

I told the story here, so the hero only had to wait calmly.

"Ah, that rule,"

This rule is the pseudonym of a hero in the city.

By the way, I'm Tifa.

He is looking for a missing father.

I don't know exactly who the alchemist the hero is looking for, but if you're looking for a person, it's a good idea to be a family. If the information was similar and different, there would be no after-rot.

Anyway, it's right now.

"What happened to the frog on its back?"

"I was hibernating in the immediate soil, so I thought I would be dangerous in the spring and got rid of it."

"Well, well, I understand, but why are you carrying it?"

"?"

"No, don't tilt your head there"

"If you defeat animals and monsters near the town, they will carry you to the town's purchaser."

I guess so!

The gatekeeper hit my shoulder.

When I looked back awkwardly enough to make a squeal, there was a gatekeeper that shone with surprise.

"I'm so glad you bring me. I'll call you a butcher and a dolly, so wait a minute."

The brave man is uncertain about praise and curiosity from around him, and is aloof.

Anyway,

"Rul, the gatekeeper will bring you a butcher and a cart, so you can drop the frog."

"so"

The frog is lowered to the ground with a bang.

Oh, this is going to be a rumor all over the city.

There was no stealth action ...

At this time, the mountain nights are cold.

I shivered in a sleeping bag.

The bonfire is burning with a crackling sound.

I hold a hot water bottle with warm water.

"It's cold"

Because the mountains are near the edge of the world, the wind blowing down from the Great Mountains is well cooled.

Windy days can be as cold as the subtropical Zoltan, with so much wind-dried snow from the mountains.

Although it is only carried by the wind, it does not accumulate, but cold ones are cold.

"I miss the bed"

Previously, you wouldn't have missed your home that much.

I was planning to build a hut here.

If you stay a couple of nights in the mountains, the efficiency of herb collection will increase.

But not now.

I want to go home as much as possible.

"I see, is this a place to return?"

I fell asleep thinking of the house that Litt waited for.

The next day, he gathered herbs in the mountains and descended after darkening.

Let's go back to Zoltan at full speed without anyone watching.

I run all the way down the night and return to Zoltan.

"Hey"

As I shouted, the gatekeeper, who tried to close the gate, looked back.

"What's red, is it a return of herbs?"

"Yes, please put in."

"Thank you, get over the fence there"

"I hate it, I'm troublesome."

The gatekeeper waited a little while closing the gate, while tapping the light mouth.

The Zoltan wall is a stone wall only 2 meters high.

If you want to get over it, you can easily get over it.

Adventurers who are late for their curfew will sneak up the fence and return home, but it is a tacit agreement to pretend to not know.

That would be a big problem in other cities, but in Zoltan it's laughing.

"Dangerous and dangerous"

"Red, you're really good at coming the last minute."

"I'm serious"

"If you're serious, come back with plenty of time!

"Oh, bad. I'm going home."

"Hey, I can't make it, I'm going to get a bride over me."

"of course"

"Don't say with a serious face ... I understand, at least I really want one cup."

"Oh, well, I didn't drink all the time, just a glass at the stall I knew."

Well, friends are important too.

I'm not going to be late though.

We entered the "Oden" stall at the border of Minato-ku and Shitamachi from the castle gate.

"Hello!"

It wasn't a frustrated father ... but a high-elf with a sleek style and a ponytail with silver blond.

My dad was also a good year, and when he was about to fold the store, the opalala said, "I don't want this store to collapse, so I'll take over!"

A weak father who looks down and looks at a beautiful woman refused for about 30 seconds, but lost the enthusiasm of Oparara, and then came to pull the stall with two people, and now Oparara often stands alone Was.

The tribe of High Elves is the only non-human race on the continent today and has the kingdom of Kiramine with a formal crown.

Dwarves living in Sir Beard Mountains are only autonomous territories owned by Countess lords.

Only the human and the high elf are on Avalon continent, claiming to be the kingdom in the right sense, rather than the king at the top of the country.

For that reason, he calls himself a high elf, a noble elf.

Humans call it a high elf without question.

However, despite being a mixed race with humans, from the Half Elves, descendants of the Wood Elves who were once the legitimate conquerors of the Avalon continent, and from the Wild Elves, which have lost civilization but are descendants of the Ancient Elves, the Urban Elves (City elf).

In the wood elf days, she was called gray elf because of her hair color.

I usually call it a high elf.

I'm a human being and I'm usually in a bad mood for an urban elf.

Basically, high elves have no front and back. I always talk in real.

If you are in a bad mood, you will be mercilessly claiming that you have been hurt in the current language, so it is difficult to associate in a sense, and easy to associate in a sense.

Of course, there are individual differences.

There will be many high elfs with both sides.

They don't use it, they don't like it, they use it more cunningly than humans.

The Knights' leaders often complained that the royal family of Kiramin was unreliable.

"Radish and beef streaks, eggs and hampan. And beer."

The gatekeeper orders while pointing at a tool floating in a square pot.

"Then I'm a radish and a wiener, an art lover, and a cup of beer."

"Aiyo!"

Opalara responded vigorously with a bell-shaped high-elf voice.

Put the utensils in wooden bowls with familiar hands.

"by the way……"

When I handed my bowl, Oparara asked, as I remembered, looking at my herbal bag on the ground.

"Do you sell red, mustard anymore?"

Before opening the stall, she was Red, but if she imitates her father to call her, the high elf is quite stiff.

"Ah, I didn't go to the mountains as much as before. I only collect spices for myself."

"I'm sorry. The purchase in town is not stable."

The price of a mustard is about 5 peril per kilometer at the market.

It will be higher if you pass through the market from the post.

Suitable for Oden, but of course a paid service.

So I and the gatekeeper are patient.

However, a girl appeared there.

"Hello!"

"Daikon, beef streak, egg, four chikuwa, and mustard"

"Aiyo!"

Upon receiving the bowl, the girl generously put the mustard on a small plate.

That way of eating is a king oden style that asks for additional mustard when the mustard becomes thin!

Awesome!

It is amazing that there are four Chikuwa.

I guess I like Chikugawa.

But this is the first face I see.

He is small, but well-trained.

The clothes are worn out on the trip, but the quality is good.

One short sword on the waist. There are three throwing knives around the side of the clothes.

Short swords are magical enhancements and some other special effects. And the magic of hiding them.

Don't sew a mythril silver chain shirt on the lining of your clothes.

The equipment emphasizes practicality. It is deliberately made to look like a normal product so that it is not noticeable.

This child is amazing. If so, adventurers who are used to traveling ...

It's a job that has to be done to keep the sign off.

Bandits, spies ... or assassins?

At that time, the girl turned her face toward me.

"something?"

"Oh, it's bad. I'm worried because it's my first look. I can afford to ask for a mustard."

"Must be must for oden"

"I also want to earn enough to say that."

I just glanced sideways, but did this child notice that I was paying attention?

This is pretty strong.

Who is he?
