Kuro no Maou
Lesson 29 Back to Daily
Since I met Lily, I've been trying to get a month early.
In this world, too, the counting of a day, a week, a month, a year, is correct, because it is the name that is different, but it is the solar calendar that is employed here, as is the Earth.
I met Lily in the first week of the month, the equivalent of April, called the "Green Wind Moon".
It's time to go into May's "Far Thunder Moon," the second week tomorrow.
This otherworldly solar calendar is entirely together, including the fact that February "The Moon of the Ice Crystal" runs up to the 28th and also exists a year that counts 29 days every four years.
Thanks to this, I was able to remember immediately, and the time of the day is roughly 24 hours.
I don't have a watch anyway, so I don't know if it's clear.
And I've learned a lot about this village and its surroundings.
The villages of Iles and nearby are rural areas with wheat as their basic crop.
However, since there is a dangerous presence in this other world called a monster, the village where people live gathers quite a few people in any countryside and has a minimum defense, such as a wooden fence, like the village of Iles.
So there was nothing like countless dots of extremely small villages with only a few doors, and people seemed to be able to grasp it quite accurately, even though it was a medieval level of civilization.
In addition, a map describing the large clutter but the surrounding geography was also shown at the village chief's house, and the general positional relationship was remembered, such as the village of Quaal in the neighbouring village in Iles, the fairy forest designated as a dungeon, the Quaal cave, media sites, and rivers in other forests and mountainous areas.
Around the village of Iles, it seems, is part of the territory of a country where the Dragon clan named Garvinal recently arose, and Daedalus, its capital, is used instead of the country name as it is, also known as the territory of the Dragon King.
Garvinal said he was young among the dragon tribes, but with great power and ambition, he became king himself and built his country.
Oh, and I totally forgot, this pandora continent is in the process of being conquered by humans.
I heard such a dialogue in the harbour town about pioneering or colonizing, but that was true.
By the way, whereas this is the Pandora continent, where the experimental facility I was originally located is called the Ark continent.
And in my world, history has already taught us how humans who came across the ocean conquered the New World.
In Africa and India, aboriginal people were ruled in slavery and entered into unilateral deals with their home countries.
On the South American continent, Inca and Asteca, the two great empires that flourished at the time, have both come to the worst end of doom and ethnic extinction.
So this Pandora continent is also going to take either a slave or an extinction, a path? Speaking of which, apparently not.
The colony was conquered because there was an overwhelming difference in force if you poke it down, so that even children could like the simple logic, the stronger the weaker.
Subraces, such as elves, dwarves, goblins and beasts, who live on this continent of Pandora, have as much power as they can fight, even if humans armed with iron and gunpowder appear.
In this magical world, guns can't be weapons of absolute power, like even small dagger raptors can't be satisfied.
It was clear from the equipment of the people who were most in the facility that the guns had not been developed.
Then, in the last month of my life, I was able to know once again what the power of a species called man in another world was.
When escaping, masks and groups of light armor with swords were powerful enough for me to kill in one breath, not because they were occasionally weak, but because the basic strength of humans was that much.
He's as powerful as that Sariel, and I don't think he can make 10,000 or 100,000 legions.
After all, Sariel is completely different, and people in this world have the same basic performance as the people who were in my world.
There will be magical power, but a legion of humans has no absolute advantage over a group with the power of monsters, Ningro individual abilities are inferior.
And if there is such a powerful man as Sariel on the human side, then this one too, there are those who are powerful enough to overwhelm other monsters.
Its representative is the dragon, and Garvinal, the dragon king who governs Daedalus, is one of them.
of humans crossing from the Ark continent, the landing point in the Pandora continent unfortunately, no. Should we call this luck, it was at the end of Daedalus' eyes and nose.
Thus, the people of the Ark continent are in the form of a powerful Daedalus army headed by the Dragon King, and cannot invade the Pandora continent ahead of them from Daedalus.
The Daedalus army has now succeeded in almost completely sequestering landed humans and is said to be in the process of threatening to negotiate the full withdrawal of humans from the Ark continent.
All of the above is what the village chief told me, but it is probably almost true because the conversation I heard in the harbour town matches the contents that the Pandora conquest has not gone well.
Apparently, my worries about getting into the war were going to end in worry, and I thought I was going to be able to continue my adventurer life for a while.
And today the peaceful routine of the other world begins.
"Ah, good morning, Mr. Wertz"
"Ooh, good morning.
Oh, there's no Mr. Lily today, what's wrong? It's unusual. "
"I've been working at home all day making psychotropic drugs. There's nothing more I can do to help."
"Well, I've seen Mr. Lily almost every day with you here lately, but I still miss you without her.
But, you know, it's time for the drug sale. "
"Looks like we can make a lot more this time than usual, so if you like, of course I'll pay for it."
"Haha, I'm a merchant"
"Life depends on it."
"Say that, you're making a lot of money with adventurers, aren't you? I heard you're pretty good with your arms."
"No, no, black magic is just unusual."
"Whatever it takes to get rid of the monster.
You're going to the guild again today, good luck!
"Yes, I'll see you later"
It is also the earliest habit to greet Mr. Wertz during field work on his way to the village in the early morning.
The first time I saw it, it was a surprise that a goblin appeared... hmm, it's amazing to get used to it.
Mr. Wertz and his wife, the way their children work in the field, they still only look like a bunch of goblins except in their outfits, but they are splendidly part of the village of Iles.
"Good morning, Mr. Grint"
Good morning, Mr. Lily.
Don't let everyone you meet from earlier tell you, well, I was certainly always with Lily.
The explanation of the situation is there too, entering the village gate by facepath.
Lily was there when I first got here, so she let me through.
He said, "Hey, look at the windows. There's a lot of them. They're having a big herd."
Windle is a monster also known as the Wind Wolf, finally a wolf who uses the magic of the wind.
They hunt in herds just like the Dagger Raptors, with a hazard level of Rank 1 and lowest, but from the villagers they deserve enough threats.
"Really? Then I'll exorcise you if I see you."
"Whoa, nice to meet you. Wow."
Listening to daily monster trends is also the usual thing.
Mr. Grint, who seems to be the head of the vigilante, thinks it's in the sex that he's gatekeeping like a physicist Lizardman?
Still, they've heard a lot about the area around the village from villagers and other vigilantes, especially familiar with the monster situation.
Even though humans are coming to invade, the only direct danger to the village of Iles is monsters, both now and in the past.
"Morning, what kind of book are you looking for today?
It's my morning routine to visit the village chief's house and read books about different worlds.
Mayor Sione welcomes me as a student (active and high school student) who immerses himself in the library every day, no, I'm really sorry that you always serve me tea or something...
"Does it say anything about transfer and subpoena magic or the ruins where its ritual equipment is located?
"There's no magic book, but, hey, there's nothing like an adventurer's record for challenging a monumental dungeon."
"So please"
I didn't give up going back to the old world, of course.
I just have no idea what to do, so I can only do enough to find out about summoning magic in books and stuff like this.
"When it comes to magic and dungeons, it has to be a library in Daedalus."
"I guess so, I'll also think about going within it"
Well, fine, I can't help it in a hurry, and I'll take this issue slow.
