"Uh, it's cold"

Although it is a meadow, it is cold in the morning because there is almost nothing around it.

"So, how long have you heard how long you were crying?"

Last night, I inadvertently eavesdropped and heard the demons cry. I slept early so I didn't know how long I was crying.

"I stopped crying in the middle of the night. I heard a curse-like voice, so I sprinkled with healing medicine around me.

Versa called on everyone, but no one was particularly ill.

Eat breakfast and decide on today's schedule.

There is no sign of Jeri coming to the meadow yet, but I would like to wait in the meadow in the afternoon.

Aisle says he has a map of the desert today.

Marquez continues to harvest and survey desert and grasslands.

The remaining me, Versa and Mermo capture the locust hopper. Carefully examine the amount of the aspirant to die, and reduce the amount of medicine as much as possible.

"Can I go to the village?"

Bersa asked. You may be worried about eavesdropping.

"I won't do anything, especially if I go. Will you go ahead with a windmill on a rocky road?"

"Isn't it better to let Riddle's brother do it?"

If we end it, there will be no jelly current.

"That's true. Anyway, let's capture the locust hopper. If there's a need, go to the village."

""Roger that""

Having said that, there were times when I thought I could easily find a locust hopper.

The only thing we caught in the morning was the seven we caught right after we had breakfast. If you can find the figure, you can catch it by covering it with a wall of magic power, but when you search with your detection skills, most of the dung beetle monsters and beetle monsters did not encounter at all.

"It's outbreak when you don't want to come, and you don't want it when you want to."

Versa is blurred.

`` If I thought that it was a beetle monster and overlooked it, I sometimes flew away with a locust hopper. ''

"How did you catch before?"

"It's definitely different from before. It was more and easier to catch."

Did it evolve, or did you sink deep into the desert? Why. Maybe we have a cause?

"Let's use their power"

"Whose?"

We headed to the village of former slaves.

Adventurers seemed to be taking a fleeting vacation in the village, helping the fields, drinking and playing with the children.

"Okay, I'm moving so I can't take up the base. It's important to never give it away!"

An adventurer of a demon named Saki was playing with the children in a position drawn on the ground. I'm losing good things.

"Wow, I can't beat the crowd. Ito! Will you join my team?"

Saki talks to the daughter of the beast who was watching the game in gym, but just shakes her head. That girl doesn't seem to make a voice.

"Hello ~"

When I called out, the children were surprised and hardened.

"Oh! Hello! Okay, I'm trader's extermination. Nobody kidnapped just to come to the investigation."

Saki calms the children.

"Actually, children are asking for it ..."

"What do you want to do?"

Saki's eyes sharpened for a moment.

"I want to experiment to reduce the medicine, but I did my best because I could not find the locust hopper, but I was able to catch only this. I would like everyone to help if possible, how about?"

I showed the children the locust hopper I caught. This is a human tactic. Maybe we have much more magical power than before and the locust hopper could escape just by approaching.

"If you catch ten, just one copper coin, or five, one copper coin?"

When Versa proposed, the children raised their hands and shouted, "I'll do it!"

The sitting sits up and is motivated to hold his fist.

The power of money is great.

"The deadline is until evening. Make sure you return to the village before the sun sets!"

According to Melmo, the children were scattered.

"I'm sorry, but do you see the children not going too far? Because we go looking for locust hoppers."

He told Saki, "It's a good pocket money for the kids."

Standing on the rocks and using your detective skills, you can see the children and the location of the locust hopper. But why can't we just be caught?

Children usually catch locust hoppers.

"Why can't I get caught when it looks like I'm far away?"

"Because children have a child's gaze, I think it's better to wash clothes once."

Saki replied that I was a boy.

"Are you sweaty?"

The desert was dry, sweating quickly, and it was covered with sand anyway, so I decided not to wash much.

"No, not the sweat, the smell of the medicine ..."

Our nose seems stupid because we were too used to it. From the demons' Saki, it must have been stinking. It also became clear why the locust hopper was not caught.

We did the washing in the village river before catching the locust hopper.

Waiting for the sunglasses to dry in their inner appearance, they will help the villagers dry the date-like dates. It seems that the ripe fruit should be spread out in a large dish-like basket.

"It takes time, but when it's dry, it's nourishment for caravans traveling the desert for days and it sells best in town."

Villagers told me.

It was evening while doing so, and the children caught nearly 100 locust hoppers. However, it is not meaningful because it is about half crushed. For the time being, I bought them all, gave them one color, gave them one silver coin and five copper coins, and threw them round, saying, "Please share them properly."

Returning from the village to the meadow base, Jeri and others came.

Ayr and Marquez seem to have responded, and Jeri and his colleagues are already asleep.

"It looks like one of the squads was attacked by Forest Wolf in the woods. I was injured and kept resting with recovery medicine. I heard that others seemed tired and said I would keep a lookout. I went to sleep"

Isle explained.

Ms. Marquez and Ayle gave 10 locust hoppers to help the children in the village.

"No, I just caught it."

"I'm quite where you are."

Apparently only we didn't catch it because of the smell.

"Experiment anyway! Experiment!"

Versa was outraged.

It is said that live individuals are gathered to find out the preference of the locust hopper.

"Because it's cold during the night, it's hard to move, so you're resting on dead branches. Find out what kind of place you prefer to rest on, and if you lure it after you get rid of it, I think that you should have the least amount of medicine."

It's like a demonologist.

"Is it necessary to get rid of the outbreak before it happens?"

"That's it. Tell me where Ayr and Marquez caught a locust hopper today."

They marked the map and taught Versa.

Dinner is Melmo's special dessert salamander stew. A little spicy. Your body warms up in the desert nights when it's cold.

"I'm sorry. I just let you investigate."

I spoke to Marquez. While the Red Dragon was networking under Margaret, Marquez felt bad because she was with us.

"No, in fact, it's more calm than a lot of people. You know, I've been in a dungeon for 300 years. But there's surprising traffic. I thought it's a desert, so it's a place where few people can enter. "

Unless there is a flash flood, a sandstorm, or a locust hopper outbreak, it's a merchant path. Seth must have gone through the desert to Flora.

"I'm going to go to the elf's village as soon as possible, so wait for a while."

"Yeah, it's okay. I haven't done it before, it's social study."

Marquez said so, but I'll try to hurry as much as possible.

As usual, there was a demonic cry from the communication bag.

The sky is full of stars. Stars can be seen near the desert air, probably because of its low moisture. A crying sound was heard in the beautiful scenery, and it was strangely painful.

The next morning, he and Jeri depart to the village of former slaves west.

The women went to investigate the desert vegetation and terrain.

It is said that Marquez is at home and waits for Seth and Shiose.

"I'll smoke the dessert salamander and dessert eagle meat."

Mr Marquez said so and gave me a look.

Upon arriving in the village, I was given a locust hopper surrounded by children. Yesterday, he paid a little more, so he said.

"Easy to catch early in the morning because the locust hopper is not up."

I got some important advice.

The villagers knew the threat of the locust hopper, so they didn't look as bad as the first day.

A meeting with the mayor and villagers with Jeri. He will also report on his progress, future measures, and what Riddle had been examining before. After heavy drought, locust hoppers are more likely to occur when heavy rain falls.

I'm grateful that if you explain logically, you will understand properly.

It is said that this year it is neither drought nor rainy.

Then, Jeri and the village chief discussed the construction of the port. I don't really care so much, so I made a windmill with the people with Jeri. Place it on a rocky area near a village or on a road in a gap between rocky areas so that the wind blows and makes a sound.

He informed him in advance of the day when he would spray the medicine, and advised him to stay indoors when the wind was blowing.

"Even if you say you're in the house, there's nothing like this

The villagers complained.

"Is it something like fabric or basket making? I think it's easy to become a specialty product. If you make insect baskets, we will buy them at our company."

"Can you buy that kind of thing?"

The villagers were reacting to the insect cage. However, because only our company wants such a thing, he said, "If it is something that we usually use, other people will be pleased." In fact, I think a large dish-like basket is very good for drying fruits.

"If you make a port, you can make more money, so it might be better to make a variety of products now. Especially baskets, vases, and other items are important."

The villagers heard my story and nodded, "Yes." Is it honest or easy to be fooled? Be wary when you meet for the first time, but once you accept it, you may trust it completely.

The caravan adventurers in the village seem to be worried about it and say they aren't too involved with us. You might think they'll get a job.

I didn't see Saki today. They say they are going hunting with the kite.

After the discussion, the sun started to fall and we decided to return home. Seth reports that Shiose has arrived at the base.

The windmill was a work in progress and decided to work again tomorrow.

Returning to the meadow base while hunting for the desert monsters, it was already a banquet.

It is said that Marquez and Shiose were immediately uncle with each other.

"Why a Komuro Company?"

It seems that Shiose asked Marquez in the first meeting.

"Embarrassing story, there's a woman who is not good at it."

"Hahahah! Same? I said I wanted to train, but the reason is that I can't show my present style to an old woman."

That's how we got together.

Mr. Shiose also seems to have difficulty with Lisa, a teacher of Versa. The destination is the same for both, the elven village. We're all too.

The banquet lasted until midnight, when a white tent was lit by a light of fire and a large number of insect monsters were approaching.

Moth demons, beetle demons, and locust hoppers cling to the tent.

"Do I do this?"

Versa seems to have inspired something, but it's dangerous because a toxic scorpion monster is coming. Of course, we got the poison, but we only do that.

Witching hour. I was drunk and fell asleep, but screamed from the communication bag and got up.

"What happened? What happened?"

We asked employees sleeping around.

"Are you talking about someone ...?"

"No, it's the same demons."

Aisle, who was watching, said.

The example demons are probably Saki. I was crying at night, but there was something in the village that screamed late at night.

"I'm heading to the village right now! Aisle, support me!"

"Roger that"

We held the flying broom.

"Naoki-kun! The dessert eagle was flying low in the evening. The wind is getting strong. Watch out for the sandstorm!"

Advice from Shiose when flying. As expected, the man who can read the wind is different.

"Thank you!"

Thank you and Ile jumped high in the sky.
