Isekai Nonbiri Nouka

I followed Kuro and Yuki through the woods on the east side of the village.

I have no particular purpose.

It's just a walk.

That's what happened.

Frasia came to my room yesterday evening.

Unusual, but Frau is not in King's Landing right now.

Without Beasel, he'll come to me.

And Holly, the caretaker, of course.

One of Frasia's most recent favorites is stroking black.

It seems to be my favorite.

That's why I followed you.

I wonder if you like stroking Kuro's stomach.

Frasia replied, "It's tough," with a little light.

Well, it's tough.

Well, Kuro's hungry.

That's how I laughed and flushed it, but Holly told me about the shock after dinner.

Frasia's "tough" means "fat."

Why do you think you're doing such a roundabout? They're worried you won't hurt them.

I see.

I can't let Kuro hear me.

I thought so, but I saw Kuro a little farther away.

……

Did you hear that?

I don't know what you mean.

So Kuro leaned his neck.

I see.

That's good.

... ah, no.

Black's way of walking is disturbed.

I think they were asking.

And this morning.

Kuro invited me for a walk.

Unusual.

But I will not pursue it deeply.

I don't say anything extra.

But I think in my heart.

It's okay, I'm not that fat.

No, well, I thought my stomach and thighs were a little... compared to Yuki's.

Nothing.

Let's go for a walk with pleasure.

So I started walking in the woods on the east side of the village....

Don't run into monsters or beasts.

I chose the east side because it's far from the hunting grounds and I thought it would be quite a crow and yuki exercise.....

I'm just cultivating trees and vines with [all-purpose agricultural tools].

Usually, rabbits and boars would attack at this timing.

Find out why you won't encounter monsters or beasts.

Focusing on us, groups led by Chloe and Alice, Chloe and England, Uno and Chloe, Chloe and Ellis formed and escorted us.

I didn't notice each one because it was about 100 meters away.

I realized that the crowd of Croiches and Alice, who were ahead of our path, could not hide the prey they had defeated.

As expected, it would be impossible to defeat everything without screaming.

Kuro and Yuki weren't surprised at the presence of Kuroichi, so they probably knew from the beginning.

If this is about Kuro, I think I'll decline the escort.

Huh? Huh?

Isn't that a guard?

It's just a coincidence.

……

Well, even if you don't need an escort, Chloe and the others won't go home honestly.

I can't help it.

Let Kuro and Yuki exercise only for walks.

It's not bad to walk in the woods that you don't normally go through.

There's a new way.

Chloe and the others can come a little closer.

Just don't come in front of me.

I want to avoid accidents that will cultivate you with [all-purpose agricultural tools].

I walked straight through the woods in the right place and thought I'd turn around in the right place, and I found the box.

A box large enough for humans to fit in.

It's made of metal.

It must be pretty old.

The evidence is entangled in the roots of the surrounding trees and almost buried.

If the nearby roots were not cultivated by chance with [all-purpose agricultural tools], they would not have been discovered.

Is it magical or something that the box is not so dirty as to be unnatural?

What should I do?

If I were you, I'd take out the box without worrying about it and check inside.

But not me now.

Because Lou and Tier are cautioned not to open strange boxes on their own.

The reason is that there may be a trap.

Therefore, it is strictly forbidden to open it on your own.

It seems better to avoid touching it if possible.

However, because I was concerned, the root tangled in the box was cultivated with [all-purpose agricultural tools].

I didn't open it and I didn't touch it, so it's safe.

But if you look closely, it's not just a box.

It is lightly decorated.

Also, the shape is not square.

The upper lid (wavy lid) is camboko-shaped.

In other words, it's called a treasure chest.

There are also keyholes.

Hmm, I'm worried about the contents.

If you till the box, you may be able to see what's inside, but depending on the type of trap, it may trigger.

Like a poison trap.

If the box is full of poison, the moment you plow the box, the poison spreads around you.

For example, a metastasis trap.

Magic is activated the moment the box is judged to be empty, causing it to get caught up in the surroundings and be transferred somewhere.

It would be best not to do anything extra.

……

It's Black.

You didn't hear my explanation?

I know it bothers you, but don't tackle it and try to open the box.

Yuki, what are you doing with magic?

If you can't open it, burn the whole thing?

That's wild.

Well, it was originally buried, so I suppose I didn't find it...

It would be a waste to burn it if you saw it so far.

Contact the village and take someone who can open this box....

Is that it?

Who's gonna open it?

Can Lou and Tier do it?

We can investigate traps and magic, but we can't unlock them.

No, wait.

There are keyholes, but they are not necessarily locked.

Besides, is there a trap in a box in this place?

Just empty boxes?

Is that possible?

……………………

Watch out!

I was about to open it.

I can't.

It may be an empty box, but there is also the possibility of dangerous goods.

Safety first.

In the meantime, I contacted the village that I had discovered a mysterious box.
