Isekai Ryouridou

Two Days of the Green Moon ② - Doug and Iphius

"... what can I do for you?

While hiding my inner agitation, I let him answer it that way.

The man does not answer and grins slightly.

Seeing it this way, it was still a much younger looking man.

I regarded it as a leader because it looks great, but the age, etc. still looks a little over twenty. A young man with dark brown hair, black eyes, and ivory skin with a stern face.

However, he is over 180 cm tall and extremely disappointed in his physique. Is it bigger than Dalm-Lou and thinner than Giza-Lou? I have a hard time finding myself in boarding town, and I have a hard time working out.

Wrapped around it is a somewhat unusual outfit. Quilted material, or an awesome material that seems to be stuffed even with cotton inside, with leather belts wrapped around the waist all the time. So I'm sure it's hot and bitter in Genos' climate. The ribbon on the chest is untied and the long sleeves are wrapped around the arms. Everyone on the spot was dressed like that, and all had a fine long sword down their hips.

(This guy... that's so powerful)

Powerful humans, etc., are familiar to hunters by the woods.

But this young man, or he had a unique force of different atmospheres.

He has a deep carved face for the people of the west, which may be the category of man in one way or another. But his black eyes glowed sharply like a raptor, and his face, with a mundane grin, felt like the power of willingness to give in to nothing.

"I see. This guy is definitely a punk."

A young man finally opened his mouth.

The other men are laughing silently and slightly. That appearance also made me feel compelled to differ from the town outlaws.

"Um, is there something I can do for you? I'm in the middle of business right now."

"I don't want to talk about business like that. You don't come near me. You're a tough kid."

Then Barsha, who had refrained from replacing me, raised her voice "hey."

"Are you soldiers from Wang Du? Why do you want to interrupt Asta's business?

"Yeah? Who are you?

"I'm with Asta. I take care of myself in the woodside settlement."

"I see. So you're the survivor of the Red Beard Party, the Balsha of Masala."

Barsha glanced cautiously.

"... well, I guess you and I are telling the story of Wang Du. I won't be surprised."

"Then you pull in. I don't have any business with you at the moment."

That's how the young man turned his gaze to me again.

"Do you want me to give you a name? I'm Doug, Chief Lion of the First Expeditionary Regiment of Alglad, Unit IV. So this guy..."

And, speaking, the young man named Doug let his gaze wander away for a moment.

Where the hell did Iphius go? You were just walking behind me, weren't you?

"Hey, my general is here for you."

As one of the men called in the rear, the elongated figure appeared loosely in front of the stall.

I can't help but breathe in that unusual way.

"Oh, there you are. This guy is also a hundred lion long Iphius. Look at me like this, but most of them are noblemen's blood muscles, so if you go against them badly, you look at them painfully?

That certainly could have been an aristocratic look, except for one thing.

She has long, pale chestnut-colored hair, and her long cut eyes are pale. I'm sure it's a people in the west, but they're originally thin pigments. The skin color also feels a lot whiter.

He is about five centimeters smaller than Doug and has a smooth physique instead. Impressions may be similar to the Leiris of the Earl of Saturas family. Skinny. None of them feel weak at all, and they are like noble swordsmen.

Besides, I'm sure it's also a neat face. The long cut eyes have long eyelashes, the lines of the mandible, etc., are tight and are constructed to make you want to call them neutral beauty.

But I couldn't say that clearly.

Because the man was hiding a part of his face.

The person hides everything from the under-eye to the upper lip with a metal mask.

It is an odd mask that only covers both cheeks and the nose and upper lip, and where the nose should be, the beaked protrusion of Totos protrudes slowly. The odd mask was often creeped out just because the make-up of the face was noble and delicate.

And there's an odd breathing noise.

You know, like the villain characters in the famous SF movies, they're constantly scattered with shucks and deaf breathing sounds. That was probably the tone of the nasal breath echoing the metal mask.

"A hundred lion chief means a hundred soldier chiefs. You mean the hundred men in this lodging town are my men, and the remaining hundred are the men of this Iphius. Our superior captain, Captain IV, is welcome in Castle Town, so the soldiers of Innkeeper Town will be our responsibility."

That said, Doug put a successful arm in front of his chest.

"An introduction would be enough like this. Then now let me listen to you, Asta at Fa's house."

"... are you talking about me?

"Oh. Who the hell are you? What kind of people are you talking about?

Doug's eyes glow brightly, laughing invincibly.

A Raptor-like eye that misses nothing.

"An emigrant people is such a large family of figures that it is said that they are Mahdra's blood. Still, it's a classic redhead, blue-eyed, white skin. Some of them have golden hair or brown eyes, but they're all big men poking at heaven anyway. There's no way a cute boy like you is a migrant."

"No, that's..."

"Most of all, he's a dragon god's people visiting from the North Ice Sea. They are the most common ones coming from outside the continent, so it has become a theory that the people of the migrating people, namely the people of the Dragon God. Apart from them, there are no clans coming from the outer sea. You can see all kinds of delightful people in the port town of Darm on the western side of the king's capital, like the people of Drol, who have black skin, or the beautiful Mincian pirates."

That said, Doug hoisted one eyebrow.

"But you're not exactly like those delightful people. By and large, the language of the west is too skillful for the emigrant people of its youth.... That's why I'm asking. Who the hell are you, man?"

"… to begin with, similar questions have already been exchanged with the nobles of Genos"

I said it back.

"I can only answer the same words then. I'm certainly not born on this continent, but when I realized it, I was down in the Morga Forest. I have no idea how I visited the land."

"Hmm... sure, that's how I hear it, too"

Doug laughed spirally, not looking impressed at all.

"So you're not going to undo that bullshit, are you? Who can believe a story like that when you were born outside the continent and you realized you were falling in the middle of the continent?

"Right. I think it's a ridiculous story myself. But there's no other explanation."

So the word "people without stars" came to my head.

But I don't understand exactly what "The Starless People" are. It didn't seem to make much sense to say the word in such a state.

"I was born in an island country called Japan. I've never even heard of a continent named Ameshorn. And yet, I don't know why I'm here, and I don't know how the words work without difficulty."

"Hmm. If so, you're either a big rooted liar - or the contents of your head are smashed to pieces"

Doug stroked his sturdy mandible with his fingertips.

"Fair enough. It's not my job to question him. By now, even Castle Town will have the same questions as the forest chief."

"... I pray that the people of the King's Capital will be convinced"

"Hmm. I wonder where I pray to God"

That's how Doug finally put his gaze around the people besides me by the woods.

"Still, there's a lot of good women around the woods. We've been marching for a month, and it's poisoned our eyes."

It also seemed a lot more crackling for the woodland women to get stuck like that.

Worried, I turned my gaze to everyone too - with Raina-Lou at the head, the woodland ladies looked very deposited and chilled at the soldiers of the King's Capital.

"Well, you interrupted. You should earn at most within the moment. If you don't have a dark spot behind you."

"... there's nothing behind the forest folks."

When I let him answer that, Doug twisted his mouth, "That's lucky," he said.

And when Doug returned the calumny, the soldiers of his companions followed him silently. Iphius, a hundred lion lengths, and Ya also followed it as he sounded shchowdling and creepy breathing noises.

"Those are a lot of troublemakers. I can't compare you to the outlaws in town."

And where the soldiers were far enough away, Yamil-Ray said it that way.

Barsha also has a "hey" hard face.

"I knew that was a soldier, not an outlaw. You're harder to train than you are to be a town guard.... Oh, Lyada-Lu, you're annoying."

Another escort, Lyada-Lou, was at the Blue Sky Dining Room.

Lyada-Lu, who approached us as he dragged his right leg, had a terribly serious face.

"Asta, who the hell was that man who was exchanging words with you?

"Yes. That's the name Doug, and he says he's in the position of a hundred lion chief to bind the soldiers. Looks like he and another person named Iphius are in command while staying in the lodging town."

"I see, is that the head of the soldiers"

Lyada-Lu compared me to Barsha's face with a harsh look.

"It's Barsha. Me and you don't seem to have enough business."

What does that mean?

"... if they come with a sword, we can't protect our countrymen alone. A man named Doug and a man with a strange side to it - that's no less skillful than a hunter by the woods."

"Right. That's what I was feeling, wasn't it? If we do this right, there's no life."

"Uhm. Starting tomorrow, we should put more hunters on escorts. Not a man with a hand wound like me, but a hunter with decent powers."

I was truly surprised.

It was certainly men of unusual force, but I didn't expect Lyada-Lou to say so much.

(Seemed less belligerent than I imagined... but I guess I don't know what I'm good at)

And they were wiping out my existence. I mean, you came all the way out to the stall to worship my face. It also had to be called a new anxiety material.

Thus it is again at night.

That night, Ai-Fa was set to reveal more anger than last night.

"Why do we even have to get rid of Asta now! Wherever Asta was born, it wouldn't be anyone's nuisance, though!

Everything that happened today was over.

Plus, we were told by Birdu-Faw that the meeting was over.

Even at the meeting place in Castle Town, my identity was still questioned severely.

"Besides, that wasn't the end of the story. The nobles of the king's capital even said that the Marquis of Genos and the people of the forest had consigned to the house of Count Turan."

At dusk, Birdu-Faw came out to Fa's house himself and stated so.

"Or should I say that the Marquis of Genos, who disturbed the Count Turan family, used the people by the woods to push them to a loss of legs…? Anyway, that's what I was talking about."

"It's ridiculous! Didn't the story of Cycleus and the Sung family committing major crimes in the past also show proof!

Ey-Fa, who had just returned from his hunting job, was still outraged at that time.

I think Birdu-Fou was neat because of the meeting, which spanned several hours.

"As a matter of fact, I didn't know how far they were serious about stating that. It just seemed like he wanted to make the Marquis of Genos obnoxious... and in the first place, a crack in the nobility kept you mouthful of fruit liquor."

"What the hell is that! In an important place of discussion, and that you were drunk from within the high sun!?

"Uhm. So extra, I didn't know the truth. There's no such thing as a barren discussion."

Moreover, the nobles of the king's capital also called the chiefs from Jomtien tomorrow.

The chiefs also preached on the importance of the giva hunting job and suggested that we at least get some time in the morning, but they kicked it too.

"Why do I have to get up early for you guys?

The nobleman, who was drunk, said he had said so.

You remembered that story again when you were heard at dusk, Ai-Fa was pulling in a pot meat-style stir-fry twice in the shape of anger.

And then he swallows it, and then he screws me.

"... so what happened to the stall escort?

"Oh, Donda-Lou said wait till night, I hear. When the other hunters get back from the woods, they'll discuss what to do."

So I got to take a deep sigh.

"But maybe it's just a little harsh this time. Even though, Donda-Lou and Gazran-Rutim have to head to the castle town, and I don't want to give the hunter any more rest, you might think"

"... then what are you going to do?

"Um, I don't think the soldiers in Inn Town will come at me with a knife for no reason. But there are previous examples of Sanjula... even if it's hard from the start to fight 200 opponents, if the opponent asks me that there are two humans comparable to the hunters by the woods... should I withhold... to continue my business without a solid escort...?

"I'm listening to you."

"I know. I'm in pain, too."

"Hmm. I guess it's careless and irresistible to stop the business hand with something like this"

Ever since I mentioned it that way, Ai-Fa has been putting his face much closer together.

Those blue eyes are burning badly, as if they were welcoming their enemies to the present.

"Don't guide me. As thoughtless as I am. In retrospect, it was not a time for rest."

"Oh, even more so if you think it's time for a break in about half a month. Well, on the other hand, I'm only half a month away, so I can ask the Ai-Fas to escort me."

And I was about to say, the front door door slammed.

"Who is it!," Ai-Fa grabs the knife.

"It's Lyelpham-Sudra, the head of Sudra, and Chim-Sudra, the head of the branch. I need to talk to Ai-Fa and Asta."

Ai-Fa breathed heavily and headed towards the doorway.

I'm gonna put down a near-eating wooden dish, too, and turn around.

"I'm sorry you were in the middle of dinner. There was something I wanted to talk to you about."

Lyelpham-Sudra, who entered the interior of the earth, bows his head.

Gill and Brave, who were resting in the same place, watched the untimely guests properly.

"What the hell's going on at a time like this? If you're talking about Castle Town, you've already asked Birdu-Fow."

"Oh. That's a different story. I'm sorry, but could you lend Totos and his luggage?

"Gill and the luggage car? Why?"

"I'm thinking of heading to the settlement of Lou. Tomorrow I want to tell you about my work in Inn Town."

That's what Lyelpham-Sudra said, with a serious look on his little monkey plated face.

"If it's hard to get an escort out of the Lou family, four of us Sudra want to do the job. I was hoping to get that acknowledgement from Chief Donda-Lou."

"What? But you guys have a giva hunting job."

"Sudra's hunting ground has finally eaten up the grace of the forest as well. So from tomorrow until the harvest festival, I was just thinking about working at Fou or Sung's hunting ground."

Chim-Sudra also nods next to Lyelpham-Sudra.

"But even Fow's house isn't short handed, and going to Sung's is a story that wasn't originally about learning. I was just discussing with Birdu-Fow and the others that we should be doing our job in Inn Town."

"No, but... are you sure that's okay?

"There's nothing wrong with that. We are no longer the family of Fou, so we cannot hold our own harvest festival just because the hunting grounds have run out of fruit. Besides... when we helped Fow's hunting ground, the harvest festival season seemed to slip back."

That's how Lyelpham-Sudra laughed like a monkey.

"Doing so will make harvest festival days unsuitable this time with Fa, Lid, Din, etc. Then even more so, we should get out of the giva hunting business. If we're not just talking about taking time off from work, but off to protect our countrymen, Mother Forest should forgive us too."

"Right......" Ai-Fa breathed.

"I appreciate that offer. I was mindless in stopping business from doing this."

"Oh. The people by the woods haven't done anything wrong, so there's got to be no muscle to back off awesomely. Donda-Lou will certainly acknowledge what we have to say."

"But never be impotent, it's Lyelpham-Sudra. You've just had a precious baby."

"Mm-hmm. I know that best myself."

That's how Lyelpham-Sudra looked more at Gilr.

"Then rent a luggage car with Totos. I'm sorry, but I'm gonna need another job, Gill."

"Oh, thank you so much, Lyelpham-Sudra"

Lyelfam-Sudra grinned like a little monkey again as I rushed up my voice, too.

"Never mind. It's a pleasure for us to spend a long time with Asta, even though we work."

Drawing Gill's reins, Lyelpham-Sudra and Chim-Sudra left the front door.

Hang it on the doorboard, and then Ai-Fa looks back at me.

"... in retrospect, it's a shame it wasn't a time for rest"

"Huh?"

If you look closely, Ai-Fa's lips were full of fun.

I don't think, "Oh," I laugh.

"Right. I wanted to go down to town with Ai-Fa, too."

"Hmm! I'll get a chance to deepen my bond with Lyelpham-Sudra and others, and I won't be dissatisfied with your side!

"Of course, I'm glad to hear that.... You're in trouble. Don't be so rude."

"Oh, my God!," Ai-Fa stepped on his feet.

"Whatever it is, don't throw away those who have the same power as the hunters by the woods. If I hunt down the hunting ground giva too, I'll be joining the escort! Starting tomorrow, they'll hunt the Gibbas more than ever!

"Huh? But as long as grace is fruitful in the woods, is Gibba something that comes from all over the place? Then the harder I = fa works, the slower the break...?

"It's weird! It's - even though it is!

He's an eye-fa who originally cared, so he's going to excite me one way or another. But that also seemed like too much behavior to guide me, and my chest got hot.

Together, the second day of the green moon passed in such a manner.

But the green moon, which was a great disturbance, was more of a production from now on.
