Kuro no Maou

Episode 671: Over the Meadows.

Rocking the gatagotto and the carrier, the carriage carrying the children goes to the meadows of Partier.

"Give me the boulder, and I won't chase you again."

"You left Farren and came all the way to Partier. The Baxter General Assembly doesn't seem to be active in this country, and I think it's okay now."

Two Ursulas and Cruz, sitting in the passenger seat of a two-headed carriage, look at the vast meadow of sunny Partier with a somewhat soothing look on their face.

I went through Farren from Sparda and came all the way to Partier. Unless you're a traveler or a merchant or an expedition soldier, you've treaded long distances just for the kids not to travel. That was not just a miracle, but something that could have been accomplished because of Leki's and Ursula's non-standard powers.

Sometimes on the road, they looked at me like I didn't know if I was another slave trader or a rogue, and I was surrounded by a bunch of hungry monsters. But he pushed it all by force and came here safely without missing anyone.

Leki and Ursula are also reassured that we have finally reached an exotic place called Partier, which seems to be a safe area. Regardless, the Cruz boy, who only has a slight healing magic, is finally starting to feel at ease from the bottom of his mind and comfortable living.

"It's thanks to both of us that we made it this far."

"Yes, because me and Leki worked great. More praiseworthy feats"

"Yeah, you're right, thank you"

"But Cruz and everyone worked hard. Because no one cried, and you followed me this far. Thanks."

Its pure Ursula words and smile were just a little too dazzling for Cruz to look directly at.

"Yes, no, that, of course. Everybody's just good kids."

"What's in the light?"

"Ah, haha..."

Other than laughing and deluding, it is a cruz who knows no art.

However, for the little ones, Leki and Ursula are like dependable sisters, and they won't understand how awesome they are. But I can already feel how miraculous these two are for Cruz, who is well beyond the age of discernment and who sees something called reality.

Occasionally, I seriously wonder if Leki and Ursula are angels that God has sent us from heaven with pity. It is also a truly desirable description in terms of its cuteness, adorability, pity and appearance.

I mean, for Cruz, who has a very ordinary boy's sensibility, it was so powerful for Tokimek that every single one of them acted, just every smile.

"Ha..."

It's a wack to see the charm between the two right beside each other every day, but something that makes me want to throw up even one of my sighs if I don't think there's anything like what's going to happen to me, situationally or positionally. Still, the days when you can be with two beautiful girls so lovely are enough to call you lucky, even after subtracting the boundaries of fugitive slavery.

I have already been blessed with too much happiness. I wish every day like this would last forever.

"Hey! Ahead, Yu Me Min? Death has a village! I think I can rest there today, Dace."

Making a light hoof sound, Leki, who was single, straddling horseback riding and ahead, returns, and Nico smiles and shouts so.

I'm already in the hall to hold the reins tightly and run the horse, but only the shaking up and down of my chest, which is not the right size for Leki's age, can withstand direct vision for Cruz.

"Oh, shit, that's good"

"What's in the light?"

"haha......"

With impure feelings, still laughing and deluding, Cruz could only turn his red face away from the two of them.

Thus, after entering the Partier, the road continues peacefully. The nomads of Centaur are roughly friendly and do not ask in depth about them just for their children. For the nomads, the people to migrate, the attitude of meeting people for a time was gratifying, without much stepping in and having a refreshing relationship on the spot.

Most of all, some of them were really worried about the children and told me to live with us, but Leki and Ursula didn't intend to sweeten me that favorably on the boulder.

"I'm going to live in Babylonica, the capital of Partier, for a while."

"Now I can finally calm down, Death"

From the nomads, who will be in several contacts, in a tent rented overnight, Leki and Ursula discuss the plan they had been thinking about for a long time.

With no more worries about pursuing from the Baxter General Assembly, we don't need to continue our journey any further. Even if there are no attackers, just keep moving, which is a huge burden on the little ones. Regardless, Leki and Ursula are no exception.

Escape, which requires constant vigilance, is mentally exhausting. Neither Leki's superhuman power nor Ursula's satanic magic can beat his opponent for the mental fatigue of stress.

Everyone needed a place to calm down, that is, a house.

"Babylonica is a big city, so I don't even have trouble with the adventurer's job"

"Hmm, finally, the time has come for the Lekies to be big as adventurers, Death."

While an adventurer in the capital, Babylonica, he waits until most of them are cold, taking care of the children first.

The purpose of the two is to search for the Chloe Priest, so we must return to Sparda within not so far. That's why irresponsible imitation, like throwing out the kids we've been running away with, doesn't even mean it.

"Leki and the others now, sister, so"

"Yeah, I'll never abandon you"

Like Chloe Priest.

He had no stepchildren to defend the pioneering village, and on the contrary, even the Crusaders, who were supposed to be hostile, he stood up to the rampant Gratney Oct to defend.

If we cut the kids off because we're in the way here, we'll never be able to face him again. The back of a man Leki and Ursula can fall in love with was big enough to make him think so, and far enough.

"It's okay, if it's me and Leki, we're gonna make it."

"Yeez! There's nothing you two can't do together, Death!

In this way, with a view to a first restful place, the line goes to Babylonica, the capital of Partia.

It was blessed with the weather, and with one more day it came to its arrival, at that time.

"Hehe, a bunch of weird kids, are you talking about Temei and the others?

"Oh, I knew it, that's for sure, these kids are fugitive slaves."

Unexpectedly appeared the men of Centaur, dressed in flashy red costumes. Bows on spears on swords, frivolous armaments show that they are not hunters.

Already, only a lot of times have I gotten tangled up in this Te guy. There's plenty left to see who it is.

"No, no, no, no, no. This... is the Bandits of Centaur."

"Ahhh, a bandit, huh? I'm not talking about licking you. Bye, you fucking kid! We are runaway thieves!!

Cruz's words crushed with a trembling voice are dramatically elevated by the man who names the runaway thief for what difference it makes.

"Come on, don't yell at the kid like that, you pathetic bastard."

"Oh, General!? I'm sorry!

More red men appear dignified from beyond the red men standing in front of the carriage.

Bright red hair like a chicken crown, flaming dragon tattoos on her musculoskeletal body. Horse body is also redhead, burning hairs. Because of its appearance and atmosphere, it is apparently the head of this runaway gang.

"Burning Fire on Partier Prairie!" Red Lotus Takeshi (Gremlin) "Third Generation General Oh, Daniel Byrknuckle Oh, it's about me!!

"... who is it?"

"I don't know, Death."

Leki and Ursula have returned reactions with vegetables to abrupt names they haven't even heard of.

"You don't know me, oh... hey, well, ignorant kids. And from what I've seen, Omei and the others have just come to Partier from a foreign country (Yoso)."

"Then what is it?"

"Get out of the way, Death. Let's clear the way."

Leki and Ursula entering an already battlefield posture. Cruz, useless in the battle, had just returned to the carrier and had already begun to help keep the children from getting scared.

If it is a battle, no one but Leki and Ursula is anything but a handful of feet. On the road so far, everyone remembers with their bodies that it is best to be locked in the carriage carriage carriage for the most part so as not to stand in the way of the battle between them.

"Damn, there were some dumb merchants out there. After being run off by such an upper-ball, they even took a carriage. Oh, what kind of chamber of commerce is that?"

I'm in a good position to go into battle whenever I want, but I don't even think of it as dew, like a kid pointing a blade, etc. Daniel The Below Runaway Thief was laughing, not even alert.

"Hey kids, listen up, I'm your new owner. Just a bunch of chicks, but you guys look good, I'm gonna sell you for exactly the right value, so don't worry, follow me."

He appeared abruptly and suddenly seemed to say, "Red Lotus Wuqi (Gremlin)," a runaway bandit led by Daniel, had researched enough about a group of only children who had recently appeared in Partier. I pay the nomads who come into contact with them to buy information as well.

There is no malice in nomads. If the person who wants to buy the information has a legitimate consideration, it is concluded as a business. That's just the story.

And based on the information examined, Daniel was convinced that they were fugitive slaves and that no one had yet got their hands on them, so to speak, in a 'lost' state. If you keep them exactly the way they are, it is a massive arrival of a costly commodity called a beautiful child's slave.

If a treasure chest had fallen in the meadow of Partier, our territory, there was no reason not to take it for us.

And before they went into Parthia, the capital, where the eyes of the knight glowed, they appeared to take all of it.

Damn, it's an easy job - I thought so until this moment.

"Erase it, 'White Stream Gun (White Breath)'"

"Whoa whoa whoa!?

Intuition as a trained warrior moved Daniel's body.

Something dangerous is coming. Follow that intuition, lay down your body without shame or outside hearing and evade urgently. Shortly afterwards, I felt something strange fly away to blur my own body.

"Death breaking through all at once, guys, it's a solid hold on Death!

The carriage departs abruptly with a noble horse.

The bastards of runaway thieves who were blocking the path are neatly 'disappeared' by the 'White Stream Cannon (White Breath)' unleashed by Ursula in a pre-emptive attack. Daniel was the only one on that ray who succeeded in dodging it.

"Shit, you're a magician, that kid! You guys, go after him, and never let him get away with it. Bye!!

Only the ones who were ahead were made to disappear. Most runaway thieves remain intact because they had surrounded carriages in close to a hundred numbers. Hearing Daniel's ambitiously stained orders, he immediately began to chase the carriage.

"How dare you, you fucking kids... in the Partier Meadows, you think you can get away from me. Then hey! Come on, tremble in the scorching fear of Red Lotus Wuji (Gremlin)!!

Thus, the Partier, which was supposed to be a resting place, was turned into a dangerous zone, to be chased by the criminal group of the country's largest faction, the runaway bandit "Red Lotus Wuzhi (Gremlin)".

The children's escape is not over yet.

Rocking the gatagotto and the carrier, the carriage carrying the children goes to the wilderness of Adamantoria.

"To the boulder, give me around here and I won't come after you anymore..."

"Oh, right..."

Indeed, by the time I entered Partier, I remember telling a similar story. Back then, I didn't feel like I had a glimmer of hope that I could finally finish my escape.

The plan to live a calm adventurer in Babylonica was completely ruined by the eyes of Red Lotus Wu Lin. That, if it was just the banditry of a local rogue forming a detachment party, it could also be a payback.

But "Red Lotus Wuzhi (Gremlin)" was a bigger organization than I imagined, exceeding the number, frequency, and limits that Leki and Ursula alone could handle together. He managed to shake off the obstinate pursuit of "Red Lotus Wuji (Gremlin)" and finally ran south through the Partier Meadows, fleeing to Adamantrian territory.

If we cross the border into boulders, 'Red Lotus Wuji (Gremlin)' will not seem to follow us as a territory of Partier meadows... but I didn't feel like I could expect a very bright future. The rugged, desolate landscape of the Great Rock further annihilates the mood.

"Hey! Keep going straight, Dace, it looks like there's a village. Lucky you don't have to go wild."

At a time like this, I appreciate how energetic Leki looks.

Totally, tired or giving up, I can tell you that a naive smile that doesn't put on your expression supports the kids today. Even the oldest Cruz is being saved with it.

Only Ursula, however, knows that about half of it is also compensated for by aerobic energy.

"Ur... Adamantria is the Dwarf country, Death, right?

"Yeah."

That evening, when Leki arrives in the village before sunset in a critical way, in one of the rooms of the inn, the two talk as usual.

"Dwarves are just people who seem kind of scared, a little anxious Death"

"Sure, there is."

Just because we don't have a chaser to target us doesn't make it an ideal place, I know in pain for the two of us who spent their childhood in a poor orphanage. If the inhabitants there are exclusive, it's hard to live. Even if poor, an institution called an orphanage serves as a solid backing for the protection of children and has not lived an unimaginably privileged life, such as what happens to children who have even lost it.

I got scattered in Partier, but still the nomadic people did something good, and I have no doubt that those impressions gave me hope for my life in that country.

However, as far as dealing with the race Dwarf in this first village in Adamantoria is concerned, neither he nor anyone else is unfathomable and bewitching. Whether when the monster material hunted on the road was wholesaled in the Adventurer's Guild or when the weapons used were sent to the blacksmith for repair, the response was as if the concept of customer service had been missing.

In a state of physical and mental exhaustion, this cold response is quite indulgent for both Leki and Ursula, who are still just children. Even Leki makes such a weak noise in front of Ursula.

"It's okay, we'll definitely figure it out. Me and Leki, we'll never..."

"Yes, Death... Leki and the others, if we don't work hard, we'll all..."

That's how I fell asleep to push and kill anxiety that could stand in like a dark cloud of black, the day after that.

"Well, you guys, I wouldn't have even serviced Locke with a carriage. The body and shaft are rattled. Damn, I had a bad feeling about all the kids on board, but it's totally, like, them... because I just left the first aid for now. Just go to the damask and see it all in the big workshop."

For some reason, various wagons had been repaired. The father of a blacksmith in a work outfit gives it to Leki to throw the weapon of a repair request before leaving in a grumpy mood.

"What, you know, the cost of fixing the carriage..."

"Ahem? That's what the kid cares about. Bye! I'm not even in this job!

Leki snapped as she looked at Daddy Dwarf's back as he yelled and left.

"Ooh, a day you might be able to do surprisingly"
