The South Gate, which meets Daniela, was busy with adventurers. Everyone thought it was a valley survey, but as far as the voices around them are concerned, they're apparently crusade-based quest orders. I can hear the name 'Oak'.

And it's more Daniela than that. My dear girlfriend is somewhere...

"Asagi"

"Ugh!?

Suddenly he called from behind and turned around in a hurry, and there was a familiar face nearby. It's Daniela.

"Stop calling me all of a sudden... you'd be surprised, wouldn't you?

"I stopped you because you'd slip by my side."

What, am I the one who didn't notice? He was too focused on his ears and his eyes were neglected. But when we made the rendezvous, we walked out to the gate. Along the way, what you hear is still the name of the oak.

"I hear the oak is out on the other side of the valley"

That's how Daniela cuts it out.

"Five days ago, they say one village was vandalized by an oak. A returning adventurer occasionally finds him and rushes back. Looks like he asked the guild to do it."

"So the expedition is today?

"Don't be."

I see... so this is the number. That's quite a lot. I guess that's how many oaks there are. I met with Oak a long time ago, but I'm relieved to think there's a lot of them.

"Haven't you heard anything from the valley?

"There are many things about suspicious shadows. First, the number of shadow sightings increased a week ago. The valley usually seems to be wrapped in fog, but the fog seemed thin that day, and the merchant crossing the suspension bridge saw multiple shadows at the bottom of the valley."

"Fog-wrapped valley, hey. Isn't that Mistgoblin?

"That's the difference, apparently. Because if the fog is thin, Mistgoblin will not be active. The merchant who saw the shadow said," He looked like a big shadow. "

Big shadow...... Mistgoblins were small.

"And what about the investigation?

"It was two days after the discovery of the oak thing. The Alliance hastily embarked on the formation of an oak crusader, which seems to have delayed the investigation. They had sightings during that time."

"So they didn't investigate, but instead formed crusaders, did they?"

"Don't be. Replant has a lot of fighting power because of the town of adventurers. So apparently there's only one minimal connection to the Imperial Army. That's why I don't join the army in this crusade. At best, they say there's a mix of guards in the liaison."

When I look around listening to the information Daniela has gotten, I do see only adventurers. You don't see anyone in military uniform. Well, I don't know the Imperial Army uniform...

Came right next to the big gate. Tell the guard who is the gatekeeper to go out to investigate the valley and present a status card. We are not citizens of Replant, so we do not have a residence permit. So ask them to present a status card to make sure the quest is ordered. The guard, whose confirmation was completed, gave me permission to pass, so I thanked him and went through the gate.

Beyond the South Gate there was a flat ground. Neglected trees, but good views. Beyond the flatlands you can see the rocky mountains. I hear a village around that foot was attacked by an oak.

"That rocky mountain foothill is five days away. And they say it'll take three days to get to the valley."

"That's quite a long way..."

"Let's go easy. We're not going on an oak crusade."

Is that true? Looking back, I saw the adventurers still playing gay. You won't get there in 5 days because it's a big area. It doesn't feel good to be followed around behind us by a bunch of adventurers. Talk to Daniela to get some distance and we'll go down the road with a little temper.

As a result, it was two days after leaving Leplante that we arrived in the valley one day early.

"Is this the valley?"

"You sure are wrapped in fog..."

The fragments of the earth stretching beneath our eyes, standing in the abyss of the valley, are as we speak, wrapped in mist, with no view of the valley bottom.

"Well, Daniela, let's go as planned."

Copy that.

Daniela boosts her magic. The boiling magic is jade. Wind attribute. Furthermore, Daniela amplifies its power with the help of the Spirit of the Wind.

Here's what we set out to do by the time we got to this valley. First, ask Daniela to blow the fog with wind magic. It's a form that relies entirely on Daniela, who has been discovered to be able to start a tornado. Daniela had been asked to go and buy various potions during a different course of action. Some of them included potions to restore lost magic. I didn't expect to rely on it sooner, but vice versa, it's also an operation I came up with because I had that potion.

We thought that the shadow at the bottom of the valley did not have the ability to fly. We came up with a lot of maneuvers that said, "Well, if you sweep all the fog, let's go down to the middle of the valley and see who you are."

"All right, let's go. Stay with me."

"Leave it to me!"

"Hih!? Where are you touching me, you idiot!

I'm in too much of a mood. I think I made a little mistake. When firmly supported back, coughed Daniela reaches out with her hands toward the bottom of the valley, releasing the magic she accumulated in her savings as magic.

"Gailstorm!"

Activate it while using the magic name as a word only because it is a major move. Apparently, the finest wind magic is Gayle. Still, it seems difficult to activate a magic name alone. The boulder is Dr. Daniela.

The activated tornado of emeralds proceeds to lick the valley wall and descends its tip towards the fog. If you wave your outstretched hand, the tornado starts moving laterally to match it. The fog also blows up in the gust to go with it. Gradually exposed valley bottom. Driven by the urge to peek in, but with the major role of supporting Daniela, I can't leave.

After less than a few minutes, the fog at the bottom of the valley was washed away by Gailstream. Daniela loses her magic and enters the ground with a blue face, even though I will accompany Daniela's mouth with a potion to restore her magic. Daniela, who drank slowly, took a sigh of relief, but she didn't have the energy to get up, and lay down with her head on my lap.

"Ha... if this is a pretty girl's knee, she'll recover soon..."

"Sorry, you're not a cute boy"

They have the energy to make jokes. Daniela smiles softly when I fix her hair that has been gushed by the wind. Platinum hair is thin and soft. I don't have any weird habits and feel great like a fine cloth. It is Daniela with shorter hair for women, but I know very well that it is not a hassle to take care of and keep it short. I'm sure he's just keeping it short so it's easy to move. You care a lot about your hair.

"Speaking of which, it's strange Daniela's hairstyle."

"Really?

In this world, it's strange. I don't often... see it, but it wasn't a hair I didn't know about. Daniela's hair was so-called asymmetrical. Women in this world are basically unfamiliar because they are short, stretched, tied, or tied.

"I looked in the mirror after I cut myself, and it felt pretty good, so it's always been this."

"I see."

You couldn't balance it because you did it yourself...... I'm sure this would have happened if I had cut it too short and cut it to go after it. A little dodgy Daniela comes to my attention. I said after I cut it, but I must have panicked in front of the mirror, and the laughter came in as I was pushing evil.

"Mm, what are you laughing at?"

"Heh, no, it's nothing."

"Mmmm... I feel like I've been mocked for something!

I'll stroke Daniela's hair, which is punctuating her. Then I close my eyes very quickly and slowly weaken, so I'm choking.

Then for a few minutes, thanks to the focus on recovery, both the potion and the effect appeared and Daniela quickly became fully happy. Stand up feeling a little lonely that the small weight hanging on your knees is gone and activate the Legs of the Forest Wolf as you hug Daniela. Step into the sky and proceed over the valley.

"Hmm, that's brilliant while I'm at it."

"I'm sure no one around here would have seen the bottom of the valley so clearly."

Daniela's magic kept the fog perfectly clear. It's really brilliant. As far as I can see from here, I don't see any suspicious objects.

"Then I'll try to get down slowly."

"You can't go to the bottom of the valley. Investigate in a way that looks down the middle."

He said, "I know."

Aim inside the valley to jump slowly down the steps. As we approach, we can feel the breadth of the valley. It's also quite deep. The two of us are already below the ground. Looking up, the sky, blocked and narrowed by two walls, was still blue and clear.
