Kujonin

Episode 204

The rain did not stop in the morning.

The demons have no choice but to stay in the castle and, as we are told, clean and care about the room at the back of the corridor. After cleaning, they decided to serve them. They are trying to instill the idea of labor and compensation.

Rita and Affine, a woman holding a baby, are sleeping in a room in the back of the hallway where demonic children are.

The demons were puzzled by the sudden appearance of a human mother and a baby like a goblin. There are a variety of reactions, including those who believe that Bow's girlfriend Rita has given her permission, who suspects that she is a spy in a fireland, and who sympathizes with Affine who was crying. . However, no one attacks or eats.

When I asked Bow, he said, "We have food now, and it's hard to beat humans."

Arachne, taking care of the children, eagerly watched Melmo and Seth cook and learned about cooking.

"Bersa, go see the hole?"

"Yeah, let's take a magic stone light. Isle?"

"I'll draw a map. I want to draw the route that Bow has escaped."

Aisle has been working on paper since morning. does not suit.

"I see. I'm going a little."

"Please come"

I and Bersa jumped out of the castle in the rain, unfolding the walls of magic.

Follow the cobblestone road to the north and you will soon reach the hole.

"Is there more magic around the hole than elsewhere?"

I asked Versa.

"We don't know. The level is too high and we're used to places with a high concentration of magic elements. I don't think the magic stone lamp's brightness has changed ..."

"Would you like to come closer?"

Developing detection skills while the haze is rising. To get down into the hole, hiding the magic stone light as much as possible so that no one can see it. In the mortar-shaped hole, there was a path spiraling the edge of the hole to carry magic stone, but I and Bersa jumped down from the end of the road toward the bottom of the mortar.

While jumping, check your surroundings with your detection skills. A number of side holes were dug in the middle of the hole, and a hole was dug further down the bottom. Because it is a stratum at the bottom of the swamp, it seems that it will collapse if you dig a side hole, but it seems to be digging while surrounding it with a wooden frame to prevent it from collapsing. I'm worried that it's OK.

The side hole is very complicated and stretches, and there are many insects, mascara-like, and small monsters. I don't think I'm a demonic, but I was careful not to dabble.

Corn corn corn.

From the side hole where the light of the magic stone lamp is faint, the sound of digging a rock with a hammer was heard.

"Is mining done so early in the morning?

Bersa said.

"No, it's probably dead because people can't see close with their detection skills. It's a ghost demonic."

"Eh !? Horror since morning ... Is it shadowy, are you going to see it anyway?"

"Yup"

As we headed towards the sound, as expected, a black misty shadow was hitting the rock with a hammer.

"I guess that's why you have a mining skill and you're a demonic ..."

"No, you're just hitting it with a hammer that fell properly?"

"I won't hurt you at this point, so let's just let it go. There's still a hole in the side, so let's go ahead."

There was a puddle in the back. The place was formerly a swamp, so it's humid. Versa collects mud in the puddle. Later, I will give it to the witches.

"Wow, this is damp? Is the wall of magic not thick?"

Bertha told me that the wall of his magic had become thicker.

"It's so dark. If you find it in the underground water vein, okay."

As he turned the hole, white buds grew out of the knots of the crate, blocking the road.

"Oh, this is unusual anyway. The center of the chamber is here."

Versa proceeds while pushing out the growing buds. The buds coming out of the knots in the wood are certainly abnormal. However, we were experiencing anomalies in the Sekaiju, so we only remembered the center.

"It was as expected."

After passing through the side hole for a while, Bersa illuminated a magic stone lamp in front of her. There was a huge puddle, or underground lake. The light of the magic stone lamp is getting stronger. Magic element concentration is high.

"When I saw it with my detection skills, I thought it was because the space was expanding, but I guess it's a rule."

"I guess."

The underground lake extends to the village. If we drink this water from a well in a village, it is likely that the human body is affected by magic. We had more magical powers than people, but we didn't care so much, but in the heart of the world tree, the dwarves said it was uncomfortable. In Nomefield, where there was a hero of the earth, he inhaled small magic stones and watched humans become ghouls. Even if the element is contained in water, if its concentration is high, it can be expected that it will have an effect. Especially if the baby is in the stomach.

Both the Affine children and the demonic children in the castle where Arachne had been picked up in the forest would be pollution if they were demonic under the influence of the water. When I asked Afine's baby and Arakhne about their children's circumstances, I was expecting it, but it's not as troublesome as having a bad expectation.

"I have to avoid using well water in the village for the time being."

"What other sources of water are nearby?"

Bersa asked.

"A brook must have flowed through the forest."

"I need to investigate that, too.

For the time being, I draw water from the underground lake and escape from the hole. The rain has stopped and we return to the castle in a hurry.

The demons are eating breakfast, and Affine seems to be eating properly.

We took the Belsa rucksack and headed for the stream in the forest.

"There aren't so many magical elements.

Bersa immediately investigated the concentration of arsenic in the brook's water by means of sucking grass.

When you put the water of the underground lake in the hole you collected earlier on the anemone grass, it is bon! And grew at a stretch.

"The southern hemisphere anemone grass is easy to understand."

"That's why the underground lake's magic is deep."

Bersa said that he had a gingerbread that grew to a volleyball size. Originally it was a pebble size.

"Well, how do you explain?"

Suddenly when we went to the village, we couldn't be trusted, even if we didn't see it.

"Do you threaten me?"

If threatening, it would be better to do it with a bow or demons.

"I hate demons again."

"But we can't afford to leave it as it is. Even castles aren't very acceptable."

"Huh, humans live in the Demon Lord's territory."

"That's right. It's all the responsibility of the country of fire. You have to try. That? Can this world take the country?"

"Are you going to trial with the country? I haven't heard of such a story."

If it's not democracy, can't we justice with the state? No, it depends on the law. It will take some time.

"Well, okay. Let's think about that later. For now, let's not let the villagers use the well ..."

I'm sorry but someone has to explain.

When walking towards the tobotobo castle,

"Oh, it's a cam. It's been a long time.

Versa was picking a nut similar to a cam nut. Both of them are hungry because they started the survey without eating breakfast.

I looked for something else and found a citrus fruit tree. Surprisingly, the Demon Kingdom may be a fruit kingdom. For now, I don't know if I can eat it, so I'll just pick it and ask the demons.

"Oh, that's so bad.

Arachne told me the fruits he picked.

"The only good thing is training in the summer."

Already autumn. It is not in season, so the taste is inferior. However, if you can eat, it is better to have more food. Cooking may change the taste.

When you try to taste citrus fruits, they are very bitter. It was as if I had eaten astringent persimmon soup.

"Wow ... oh, oh ... what is this ... but it's a taste I've tasted somewhere ..."

The smell is completely orange and good, but it's too astringent to eat. Is the Getemono project popular with demons?

"Oh, this is it. It's a magical syrup taste. Peppe!"

When Seth was poisoned, he immediately exhaled. Certainly, as Seth says, it resembles the taste of magic recovery syrup.

Just because the taste is similar does not mean the effect is the same, but I tried it. I boiled all the fruits in a pot and tried to make a magical recovery syrup while mellowing the taste with honey.

"Well, if you think that tea is a bit sweet and has a strange smell, I guess you have to drink it ... I don't know unless the effect is out of magic.

Unexpectedly, the demons are gone. Bow and Rita have also escaped.

"What are you doing without eating breakfast?"

Versa watches while eating a sandwich.

"Oh, only one person eats breakfast and is sloppy!"

"Only Naoki doesn't eat breakfast .... Later, we'll divide the witch grass, so it's time to put that magic recovery syrup modoki."

"Hey!"

Adults have arrived, so this is the get-to-go project.

I asked Melmo to make a sandwich and I also had breakfast.

"How about Affine?"

I asked Melmo while receiving the sandwich

Last night I had Rita just tell me my name, but this morning Rita is out in the field.

"I'm taking care of demons in the back room. I don't want to get out of the room too much."

"Some demons think it's a spy in the land of fire. It may take some time to come out. Is it alright to talk to me?"

"Good but ..."

Melmo looked at me at last.

"What is it?"

"Just because you're a prostitute, you're a woman!"

"I know! I really think about time and case!

"Well, that's fine ..."

"Wait a minute, what does Melmo think of me?"

"President is a pervert and a pervert?"

This guy! Let's tear off that big breast!

"Oh, look, I'm looking at my chest with nasty eyes."

Unintentionally I was feeding Melmo with an iron claw.

"I'm sorry! I'm lying! I'm lying!"

"The eyes are born. Okay, I'm going to talk about Affine-san and the village, so Melmo is here!"

While eating the sandwich with one hand, holding the mermo in the other hand, I headed to the back room.

As he opened the door, Affine was changing the sac of Minotaur.

"Is it a little better now?"

"Oh, yes!"

Affeine was surprised, but quickly changed shime. Dirty refills are packed in tubs and seem to be washed later.

"My name is Naoki Komuro. The people in this castle are all our employees and I am the president."

"Yes, I asked Rita. He said that he did a special job of cleaning and extermination. Affine. Thank you."

After dawn overnight, I can speak properly.

"Actually, it's the well in the village where Affeine was ...."

I briefly explained to Affeine that the demons' children in the room may have changed shape due to the effects of magic.

"Yeah ... is that so this child will die?"

"No, I don't think you'll die directly. A demonic could live for about 300 years."

At first, I and Melmo used the examination skills for the children, but nothing was abnormal.

"Okay, so it's okay."

Affine may have been prepared for something overnight. The word "scratching except dying" came to my mind. My hungry mother is strong.

"So we're going to go to the village right away and not use the well. It may even be half-threatening. Are you sure?"

"I think that's better. You should stop whatever you do."

"understood"

When we tried to get out of the room, Aphine called out.

"Perhaps some mothers regret having left their child in the forest. If so, would you give me the option to live here?"

"Okay, but this is the castle where the demons live, so we need their permission. Please do your best to know each other. We'll do it as much as we can. "

With that said, I left the room.

I went straight to Bow, who is making a kiln for charcoal.
