Konjiki no Moji Tsukai (WN)

56: parting, and traveling

When the bridge connecting the demonic and beast worlds - [Gedurt's Bridge] - was destroyed, the sun color had seen strange phenomena in the underground research facility of Laraszeek Funnal.

All of a sudden, Larasyk's overhead space began to distort.

I rub my eyes unintentionally, but they are still distorted by the way I saw them somewhere.

Then a crack entered the space, from which Pyocon and something jumped out and rode over Larasyk's head. But for some reason Larasyk is not in a hurry even though he's supposed to remember the feel.

"Hey, what the hell is that?

The sun color stares at the strange object present in front of you, frowning. I think it's shaped like I saw it somewhere, and I lean my neck.

(White and small, ravioli... Ah, here it is...!

I came up with it, but Anold Ocean raises his voice first.

"Oh, Master Spirit, you've seen it a long time!

"Spirit? This is it...?

I suspect my eyes by accident.

Because how I saw it in front of me was the snow rabbit itself that kids make on snow days. I think it's natural to be surprised because that's what's moving and jumping with Piong Piong.

"Oh, Yuki, what's up?

When Larasyk asks the Spirit only with his eyes upwards, the snow rabbit moves his head slightly to affirm.

"Oh no... what the hell... is there really an irregular...?

When Larasyk is saying a bump with his hand on his jaw by himself, Anold speaks for himself and puts the question to words.

"Oh, that master? What the hell...? Was that...?

…………

"Oh, you know...?

…………

"And, Master...? Ooh..."

As time stopped even when he spoke, Larasyk thought in the same position and did not respond at all to Anold's voice.

Anold scratches his head and looks at the sun color. The sun brings the colour to the wall with a shoulder clasp. I had no choice but to wait until Larasyk came back from my world.

While waiting a little, the Spirit rides over Larasyk's head and bounces out with Piong Piong. Then the stimulus made me hack and finally turned my gaze to the suncolors.

"Ah, master?

".................. ha"

The suncolors, who are sighing out loud somehow but don't know why Larasyk behaves like that, look at each other frowning.

"Master, what the hell is wrong with you?

Anold asks again,

"Um, actually..."

Looks like he finally responds to the explanation. The content was just astonishing.

- Looks like the King's Army is coming home.

"... hey, the army? Is that right... and Ma, Mama, are you serious?!?

Anold was responding with momentum, but grasps the meaning of the word and shows surprise at just losing his hips.

Because the King's Army should be at war right now.

There is no way that a battle hanging the fate of a race will settle for a day or there. Larasyk's words only sounded like a joke.

"Seriously. This kid's been looking into it."

That's what I say. Put your hand on the Spirit's head and stroke it. Close your red eyes and it looks good.

"Yes, no, he said he checked... Huh? You were at war, weren't you?

"Oh."

"And it started recently?

Probably not.

"... and yet the King's Army is coming back?

"Oh."

"............... Isn't it too soon to lose? No, even if I win, it's too unusual..."

Anold is right.

Even if we lost, we gathered the best of the Beasts and supplied them on their way to the border. A good number of them, too. How can this be possible in a few days? It shouldn't be a force of war.

And that's something you can say to your opponent's 'Demon Nation'. The other side is home. We have to deal with all the 'demons'. Even if I win, it's too embarrassing.

"Uh... isn't that some kind of false alarm?

It is impossible for Anold to think so. But Larasyk shakes his neck left and right.

"No, I asked this kid to watch the end of the war. And I was supposed to let you know if there was any movement."

"So... really...?

"Apparently so. I can tell if you ask because this kid was watching."

"Is the King's Army in the country yet?

"No, it seems the war is just over, and you haven't arrived. But you'll be back soon."

At a time when the two of us had a difficult look at the anomaly of things, the day color we'd been silent would say what we wanted to hear first.

"Hey, what's that spirit more than that?

It was a really my-paced day color.

"Oh, you! The war is over. The war is over! You'd be a little more surprised than that!

Anyone will understand what Anold has to say.

But for the sun color...

"I'm not interested in war or anything. I care more about that puny guy than that."

The Japanese colour meets the 'Spirit Clan'. Besides, I also talked to the fairy head straight away. That is why I was not least interested in the presence of the Spirit. Moreover, from the form of a snow rabbit, there was a sense of intimacy.

"Oh, you..."

Anold glances at him with his jitty eyes, but Larasyk stares at the sun color as a pocan, then loosens his mouth nicely,

"Nahahahahahaha! I knew you were a funny guy, boy!

I held my belly and laughed out loud.

"Are you interested in this anomaly? And you're the same beast! Nahahahahaha!"

No, I'm not an animal man, but Anold gives me a look like I'm putting up with him about to slip his mouth off.

Larasyk holds the Spirit over his head with both hands, gently rubbing his tearful eyes with too much laughter.

"I'll tell you what. This child is Yuki, the spirit of the eagle."

I thought it might be a bad idea, but I didn't say it. Because I didn't know if there was a snow rabbit in this world. It seems to snow, but not necessarily in the same way as in Japan.

"Why are you here? Or can you use the Spirit?

"Mm-hmm. You're an animal man, don't you know that? No, I don't think he's wearing an Unnamed Bracelet... but he's not an adventurer, is he, boy?

I wondered how you answered. The sun colour is not the beast man.

There's no way they're equipped with an Unnamed Bracelet because they're just being transformed by Lettermagic. I've heard of Anold, but it seems the Beastman adventurers are all bracelets to fight.

Without it, he said, "cosmetic art" cannot be used, because it will be tough on the battlefield.

Anold sees the sun color as chilling and looks softly.

"I'm not wearing a bracelet, I don't know the spirits in detail......... what do you mean?

Day colors that are gradually hunted down. Look at the situation. Anold is even more dodgy. But the color of the sun doesn't look different. Pierce the flat as usual.

"I have no obligation to answer that"

"Chi, dude, dude."

Honestly, there are things that concern me about the Spirit, but it's not something I need to know in a hurry, and if I'm in the beast world, I'll probably find out sometime.

"No, Anold, what about you?

"Yes? What is it, Master?

"I'm talking about training. You gonna train with Muir, too?

"Eh... no...?

He was going to take a proper ride, Anold. I guess there was also a reason that I came back to be stronger myself.

Perhaps the thought is remarkable, especially since these days we have seen the sun colors and the substandard people named Wincaa Geo.

Larasyk Funnal glances at him half-eyed, but when he sighs shallow, he flaunts his shoulders.

"Ma, one and two are the same. When I was on active duty, that's how stupid my apprentice was."

"Oh, really?

The sun colour asked with a little interest. Anold answers that.

"Told you? Even the biological parents of Cosmetic Arts. Everyone came here to volunteer as an apprentice. I mean, most of the people who are at the top of the country right now are disciples of their masters."

Whether it's a king or a bunch of people named Three Beasts, the nation's highest power, she's her godson.

"... a hell of a lot younger than I thought... you're a little rabbit"

The moment I said the sun color was young...... a tremendous killing air seeped out of Larasyk, so I'll read the air there and reword it. It was a relief for my neck to get sore again.

"I mean, that's it. You could've taught a pervert like Osama a lot to a big guy like that, huh?

"Pervert, don't say it! Come on, Conoya Row!

The question of the colour of the sun should be especially so. It's totally strange why a big guy like her was to teach him to be just a cook and adventurer who is not a resident of this country, if not a royal like Anold.

"Well, I know what you mean. I was just lucky..."

"Luck?"

"I was pushed."

"Shit, master!

In Larasyk's words, the sun color is "what?" I look at the two of them alternately like that. Muir and Wincaa also look at it similarly while poka ~ n.

"At the request of my old drinking buddies, Anold Boy brought him here to take care of the eagle."

"Huh."

"No, heh... I'm just a little interested"

Even if they say that, it doesn't matter what Osama's past is.

"But well, that's a nostalgic story. Anold, who was still a kid, wasn't an old face like he is now, he was cute, though."

I smile at nostalgia with distant eyes.

"Hey, hey master!?

Are you ashamed, Anold dyes his cheeks up slightly and raises his voice.

"Oh, by the way, what about the boy and the lady there?

"What?"

All of a sudden the conversation came down toward us, so the colour of the day makes me speak up. It's just that her gaze is directed not only at the sun color, but also at the winkaa.

"No, I see the two of you training, but the kid and the lady there... anold?

"Huh? Uh..."

Anold scratches his head like he's in trouble too.

Because he knows that the sun color and winkaa are not pure beasts.

This training should be for training only the Beast Man's "Cosmetic Art". But the day color, which is human, and the winkaa, which is half, have little meaning for that training.

Anold who can swim his gaze into the sun color without knowing how to answer. So the sun color is a word.

"I'm not gonna do it."

I just said.

(I don't know if I can train the Beast Man.)

More than that, Nikko wants to train in "Character Magic". He decided that if he had received such training as harsh, that time would definitely be taken away.

"Uh-huh, I was interested in the kid, too"

For some reason Larasyk makes his mouth pointy unfortunately.

(You're not kidding. If you keep staying next to a guy like this Mad, you might try to experiment with me one day)

That's what I'm afraid of. If she wants to find out who she is, she can expect to be asked about magic or tested for her body until she's satisfied. Absolutely not.

"How long does it take to train?

When the sun color asks Larasyk, he turns his gaze to Muir.

"Uh-huh, it depends on him......... well, don't take at least six months to be able to do that as an adventurer quite one person. Fortunately, the level seems quite likely, and" masquerade "is applied to basic combat training, to that. Pack it up, but that's all it takes."

When I heard it was six months old, the answer came out in the sun color. Point your gaze at Anold and Muir.

"Well, then goodbye here."

Muir catches his breath and looks sad, but Anold shows how he said after all. Muir, anyway, I guess Anold had noticed the sun-colored answer lightly.

"I knew it would happen. Can't you do it?"

Anold is giving up, but Muir is stuck to see if he hasn't given up yet.

"Duh, why not! If you don't have to train, if you spend time in this country..."

I'm sorry, but I have a purpose.

"Also, purpose?

"Oh, it's about seeing the world. Can you do it for six months?"

To that word of the sun colour, Muir lay his eyes down and silenced. It's a short relationship, but you may understand that you're not the owner of a personality that looks into the sun-colored eyes and bends the words of confidence with words of your degree.

That's why I realized it was useless to say anything. Anold can only laugh bitterly when he sees her like that, too.

He didn't seem so surprised because he seemed to foresee that the sun color would say so, but for Muir, I guess he's a companion he's traveled with so far and feels lonely for his first human being to leave the side.

It's like siblings from the side, but the race is different, and the sun color never thinks that.

But Muir must have liked the color of the day. I guess I can't sort out my feelings about missing the day colors that my feelings are attracting.

But you two should know very well that no one can bend the will of the sun color.

"You can't fish for more than six months with food..."

Anold whines small. I think I've come up with a proposal for a day color that shows an unusual obsession with food from time to time, but I'm shaking my neck left or right just because I decided it wouldn't be possible.

"... hey Hiiro, what are we going to do?

"Right, when I gather information here for a couple of days, I look around this continent all the way, and then..."

Tell you what, Larasyk was looking at this one with interest, so I stopped talking.

"……… no further obligation to answer"

"... well, that's it."

Anold says so, but he didn't say strongly if he had noticed Larasyk's gaze either. Larasyk is tongue-in-cheek.

I stared at Muir, who was still depressed, in a way where the sun color looked down.

"Hey, little one."

When you shake your little body slightly vicious at the sun-colored words, you slowly raise your face. Eyes on each other.

"Six months later - when I'm free, I'll come and show you my face. Be a little more helpful by then."

I would not have meant to say these words in the sun color if I had. But I wonder why, seeing her depressed, I felt a little irritated. I don't know if it's against her or against me.

But it's also true that when I heard my words and saw Muir smile happily, I felt the pointy atmosphere soften a little.

A lot happened today, but when I said, "I'm off now," I decided to rest in the bedroom in Larasyk's basement.

Looks like the Anolds were having fun talking to Larasyk until late. When I saw it, Winkaa and Hanemaru were resting in the next bed.

The next day, the day color I decided three days later to leave [Beast Kingdom/Passion], I was now walking in the city with the Anolds.

By the way, Larasyk is breathing and pulling into the lab to make liquor out of the nectar he got from Anold.

"You haven't known the people yet."

Anold looks at the people he sees.

Interruption of the war - no, maybe it can be called an end. Looks like the people don't know that yet.

If it were known, it would be quite important. But it's quiet in the country.

"But I really didn't expect Hiiro to smash the bridge like he said. What does the Demon King think..."

Yes, that was oddly the same ending as the proposal that the sun color gave. It collapsed [the bridge of Doha] to prevent the beast man from entering the demonic realm.

"So, but this didn't hurt anyone, did it?

"Mm-hmm. Sure Muir's right, but for the Beast Man, it would feel bad to have his pride uprooted and denied. I'm an animal, too."

"I don't know about that, but if no one died, I think it's a good thing."

"I can think of that, but the main point is, what did the Demons do that for? Well, I can understand if you hear that humans have destroyed a bridge connected to the demonic realm. They're afraid of demons, and if they break them, they'll feel better."

Muir also tilts his neck without knowing the true intentions of the Demon King.

"Hey Uncle, speaking of which, how come 'Humans' don't break the bridge?

"Hmm? What are you talking about?

"Look, I just told you, didn't I? How could you not have broken the bridge before if that would have prevented the 'demon tribe' from attacking?

Muir's questions naturally. The continents are connected by a single bridge. Bridges also exist on both 'human' and 'demonic' continents.

Name it - [Bridge of Moutihi].

It does not extend in size or stubbornness to [Gedurt's Bridge]. If you want to break it, even humans should be able to break it.

"I didn't break it, I couldn't break it."

"... why?

Muir tilting his neck in a cocky way. The sun color also attracts interest and listens.

"The bridge is always guarded by demons."

"Oh, yeah."

Besides, the guy you're protecting seems like a pain in the ass.

"Trouble?"

"Oh, sure, what's your name? - Did I say Eelaora or something?

"Is that person strong?

"Oh, he's so strong."

I'm pretty sure he's quite capable of that, because he's about to be entrusted with an important bridge.

"He was a former Demon King's Guard." That's very strong. "

The Immediate Guard of the Demon King is a unit of only six.

All so fierce that they have the power to protrude and are told that ordinary adventurers are no match for a bunch of hundreds.

"Well, it's hard to break a bridge if someone like that is protecting you."

"If you can break the bridge, you can cross the ocean if you're a Demon."

The sea has vicious monsters, vortexes, etc. where you have to put your life on the line to cross, but if you're a demon, Anold seems to think you can cross even such a place.

"Where are you going, by the way?

"Ah? It's a guild, of course. There's something I'd like you to redeem, right? Look, like that fucking snake."

I think the sun color is gone, and I stop on my feet regretting asking the question.

"Hmm? What's up, Hiiro?

…………

"Hey, why are you looking away?

…………

"... you, crusade site... you have it, don't you?

…………

"Hey - All right, let's just calm down a little. At that time, we succeeded in capturing Clay Viper, thanks to this cute angelic Muir, didn't we?

Muir is lit up when she says she's cute. But the sun turns a blind eye and shuts up.

"And besides Hiiro, you got out of [Glee Cave] first, and you stayed to get the site, didn't you?

…………

"That's a lot longer - it was a long time................ What were you doing then?

I had no choice but to poke my eyes at them with choke as they stuffed me giddy with suspicious eyes.

"Ahhhhhh!?

Anold starts rolling down the ground holding his eyes. The gaze of the passers-by around them is directed at Anold, who suddenly behaves strangely.

"Okay, let's go."

"Wait, Kolaohhhhhhhh!

The sun color impresses me that the resurrection is faster.

"Tenmei, yeah! I wonder if you'd like me to explain what that means!

I get my eyes glistened to all these yakuzas. I thought I'd poke him again, but Anold learned or was taking a good distance and ended up explaining it.

"... Phew. So that weird guy had every snake?

"Oh."

"What's your name?

"... I don't know"

"... you forgot"

"I just wasn't interested"

So I have to be bad to get my chest up in the sun.

Anold says, "If it's taken, we can't help it," and puts a bolt on his head.

"Mm-hmm. But there's a guy who can do that. Besides, I'm dealing with a hippo. What did you take it for?

"Do I know?"

"Right. What do you think of Muir?

"Uh... to build you a grave... or something?

"Oh! That's Muir! What a cute idea!

Hold her tight, Muir looks a little bitter. Look at those two. The sun color is a word.

"Super Loricon"

"At least tell me you're a parent idiot. Ya bokeh! I don't know. I don't give a shit about getting promoted.

Anold on his ass yelling at him not just saying what he would do when he got the title again, and the sun color goes on explaining.

"That's why, if you try me, it's like I've been robbed. You're giving up the snake area. I'm not worried about the money, okay?

"... Fair enough. I mean, that's faster! Tell me then!

You were absolutely right, but I forgot.

"Why don't you just go to the guild and redeem some of the other monsters?"

One line takes you to the guild.

None of the guilds looked like adventurers.

I guess a lot of people went to war after all. Looking at the suncolors, the staff is so surprised. But when I said I was a traveler, he convinced me.

When the redemption is over, leave the guild as it is.

"I mean, if the Beast Kings were to return, this country would be noisy, too."

"-!?

Ha in Anold's words. A day color that looks back at what I have become of this country and turns my face bright blue. I thought this was a mess and ran to Larasyk's lab in a big hurry.

"Oh hey Hiiro!?

Running away ignoring Anold's voice. Those who were left stood still in silence as a kyoton.

"Oh, what are you doing packing?

With a bottle of liquor in one hand, with his left hand in the pocket of a white coat marked by spills of liquor and dirty marks at Yoreyole, it is Larasyk who is moving Piokopyoko and Rabbit that speaks to the sun colour he is packing in front of him.

In contrast, Japanese colors are packed in bags with ingredients that I had bought away.

"We're going on a journey soon"

"Huh? Didn't you say in a couple of days from now?

Indeed, the sun color told Muir that it was only a couple of days later that he would embark on his journey. But things have changed.

"This is sudden again. What the hell happened?

"No. Remember, I had a little trouble."

"Trouble?

"Don't worry. That's not like annoying little rabbits...... maybe"

"Maybe!... Do the Anolds know?

That's where Anold and the others came back. He sees the sun color and speaks enlightenment about what he's doing.

"Oh, hey Hiiro...... You're not gonna tell me you're going on a journey anymore, are you?

"Liar... you're lying, aren't you, Mr. Hiiro?

The sun colour bears the packed bag and rises, and sees Anold, Muir, Winkaa and Hanemaru there.

"I'm sorry. I've decided to leave before the royalty returns from the war."

"How dare you!

Muir comes stuffed. Are you desperate to stay longer than a day with the sun color? But she put her hand on her shoulder with a pong, and it was Anold who answered.

"You, what does this have to do with the healing of Master Mimil?

Muir also gives the look she remembered as A.

"Surely when the Beast Kings return, it will be more noisy. If you're bad, you might find out you're cured. Otherwise, maybe we won't be on our journey."

He's right, if that happens, it's expected to be a sure stumbling block and trouble. I don't give a shit about that.

"Ke, but all of a sudden it's too much..."

"This is all about what you guys have already decided to say"

Keep your mouth shut and get out to the ground. Winkaa speaks out in front of Larasyk's house.

"Mm... Hiiro"

"Antenna woman...... what are you gonna do?

If you're going on a journey, I don't have a problem with what I'm going to do with you. Because she's strong, so she doesn't even get stuck. But I know she has a purpose, too.

"... stay. I said I might know about the concert. Somehow I'll be reminded."

"Well, then don't break up with you here either."

Winkaa lays her face down lonely, approaching Tokotoko and grabbing her clothes quickly, looking up at her uppermost.

The look obviously feels like the child is sweet with a "don't go to work" feeling to his parents. Hanemaru also stares at me with a similar face, so I unwittingly hold my temples.

"Together...... no?

"... you're looking for a father, aren't you?

"... yeah"

"Then why don't you pierce that thought?

…………

"Besides, you're still trying to gather information here, right?

"... yeah"

"Nothing. Breaking up here doesn't mean I won't see you for the rest of my life. If we live, we'll see each other someplace again."

"Hiiro......"

Yes, if you're alive. If we're anywhere on this earth, we'll see each other.

"Honestly, I envy you."

"... hmm?

The sun color stares into innocent eyes that contain nothing such as jizz and her filth.

I didn't mean to say this, but it's true that I admire her strength.

"I'll be stronger like you too... never. Being protected is not about sex."

…………

"So the next time I see you, I'll surprise you. Show me more strength than you."

"Hiiro......"

Then Winkaa overflows with a crunchy grin.

"Hmm... but even wi can't beat it. Hiiro is King of Wi. To protect the king, wi get a lot stronger too"

"Aw!"

"Hmm... Hanemaru will be strong too"

"... well, then it's a battle"

Smile at each other and declare to be strong.

I had an admiration for the strength of Winkaa, but I can't let it remain an admirer. If you have strength to indulge in this world, make up your mind to desperately grab it.

"Bye, antenna woman, honeysuckle"

"... yeah"

"Ku ~ n......"

I'm ready to say goodbye, but I'm still not convinced of that look.

The sun color leaks one exhale with "Phew," then tonnes...... and gently presses it with her index finger on her forehead.

And now turn your gaze to Muir. She looks up again.

"Like I said to the antenna woman, this isn't the last time. You've decided to be strong. So try your best here. - Be strong."

"Mr. Hiiro......"

"Surprise me one day, little one"

".................. will you?

"What?"

"I can work hard.......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Tear-eyed girlfriend. I feel like I can't stand these younger expressions.

The sun softly lays her hands over her head.

"I'm looking forward to it, little one. And Osama."

"How am I now!? It's me. The next time I see you, you'll be in too much trouble!

Come on, man.

"Too pale against me!

The sun colour turns its gaze to Muir again. Gently stroke her head as she did to the children who used to take care of her in a child care facility. She looks comfortable, her eyes closed as she dyes her cheeks. As if you are engraving that warmth into your heart.

"Bye, little one"

"... Yes. Mr. Hiiro, be well. Absolutely...... I'll try to be strong. I'll surprise you!

When the sun color smiles slightly, he returns his heel and walks away from them.

"Hiirous! Absolutely, absolutely, I'll see you again. Ugh! Absolutely!

The sun color just responds with your hands up gently.

"Oh, you're as sappy as ever, really."

"Hmm... but it sounds like a hiccup"

"Awwww!"

Honeymall is offering his ambition to celebrate the safety of his journey in the sun. Muir waved all the way until she could see the sun color.

(Man, that was short, but that was a pretty meaningful trip)

At first I had decided to travel alone, but my journey with the Anolds was fresher than I thought. So much so that I wonder if I could travel with those people again. It seems like an unthinkable change when I was in Japan.

(Well, at least six months ahead of us next time we see each other...?

Looking back a little from the woods, put The Tree of Beginning Aragorn into view.

The great trees that rush through heaven seem to be dropping off the sun color.

(I wonder what's going on with them then...)

It's about the Muirs, so it would be desperate to do the training. Muir in particular was looking for strength. I'm sure I'll be strong. I thought I'd look forward to seeing you next time.

The sun color is a word with a zip view of [Beast Kingdom/Pacion].

- Let's go.

Even though I felt a little remorse, I proceeded to walk and disappeared into the woods.
