Legend

“I'm going deeper into the fog.”

Wait here or go ahead.

With those two choices, Bob chose to move on.

If you think about your own safety, maybe you should stay here.

But Bob was honestly not confident that he could deal with the animals and monsters that were coming after him, even if he stayed here alone in the absence of Ray or Set.

There is no doubt that Bob is a good hunter.

But I wasn't an adventurer, I was a hunter.

Besides, Bob knows that this is the periphery.

And now that I've thought about how to help myself a little bit... I guess I still thought it would be better to go back.

Of course, there was a curiosity to get a little closer to Fairyland besides my own safety.

Given my current situation, I want to enter the fairy village immediately.

It will definitely make you safer, and at the same time satisfy your curiosity.

There's no way Bob wouldn't choose such a best option.

... but that means we have to stay with the wolves in the fog.

"Well, if that's what you're going to do, I understand.I accept that too. "

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Good luck.

Ray, Set, and Nielsen called out to Bob.

Bob, who had been called out to him like that again, was, to be honest, uneasy.

I didn't fully grasp Ray or Nielsen's personality.

However, even though I still understand their personality to some extent, I was naturally anxious when I was told such a thing in the current situation.

Well, Ray-san, I'm going to ask you a question, but are you sure you're okay?

"That's right, I don't think there's a problem."It's just that Bob has to imitate things like attacking the wolves or walking in the fog for nothing. "

"Of course, I'm not going to imitate you like that!"That's... well, it's true that fairy townships are a concern.However, given the current situation, even if you imitate them like that, you can only keep them alert. "

“Then I don't think there's a problem.... but that's just what I think.If the leader of the fairy hometown doesn't like Bob... I don't know what's going to happen to him. "

"Hey, Ray-san!?" Please don't be too intimidating! "

In response to Ray's words, Bob raised his voice like that.

He was a curious Bob, but he might still be afraid to be threatened in this situation.

That said, it wasn't a threat to Ray.

In fact, the judgement about fairy township is left to the foreman. If the foreman refuses to let Bob into the fairy township, that's all he has to do... In some cases, it's not strange to have to do something about it.

Still, considering Ray's acquaintance, it was more likely that he would not imitate Ray indiscreetly.

"Anyway... hm? Looks like you're here."

It was Ray who was talking to the foggy side, but suddenly said so.

What the hell is going on here?

Yeah, Bob thought about it, but he knew right away what Ray was saying.

After all, I heard several things running in Bob's ear.

Bob, a skilled hunter, understands the sound of footsteps and what approaches him from his current situation.

At the same time, it is not difficult to predict the opponent who is approaching the story I just heard from Ray and Nielsen.

I mean... wolves.

Wow!

Bob's mouth leaked such a surprise to the wolf that came out to break through the fog.

Still, I didn't get the bow because Ray and Nielsen were by my side.

The wolves came and looked at Nielsen and Set calmly.

In addition, Ray didn't seem particularly concerned.

Fairy Nielsen is a resident of the fairy township that we are defending, so there is no problem.

And Set knew that there was an overwhelming difference between them.

That was what the wolf felt for Nielsen and Set.

... it's not strange to be scared, knowing that it's not just about Set, but about Rey as well. But I don't think Rey noticed that there's a lot of Set around here.

Or if this was a monster or a stronger instinct, I might have noticed Ray's presence... but with all that hatred, these werewolves don't exist that far.

Still, I didn't do anything to Ray, probably because he had been talking about it for a long time.

But unlike Ray and the others, Bob was the first to be here.

It was no wonder the wolves were alert to strangers.

The pack of wolves roamed around Bob.

It obviously meant vigilance, and if Bob had done anything suspicious here, it wouldn't have been strange to start an attack immediately.

I don't think Nielsen is doing such an imitation in this situation right now because he's with us.

Bob turns to Nielsen for help.

I turned to Nielsen for help, not Ray, because this was the fairy village.

Therefore, I decided that it was Nielsen, not Ray, that should be relied on here.

Relying on Nielsen, he turned a slightly better gaze to Ray and then spoke to the wolves.

“This guy is Bob. He's going to enter the fairy village.I'm going to ask the chief for permission now, so I'll keep you waiting until then.I'm telling you, don't attack them. ”

When Nielsen said that, the wolves stopped roaring with an understanding.

Bob was relieved by the wolves, but the wolves did not completely release themselves from Bob's vigilance.

Although he didn't raise his voice or move around Bob in a circular motion, his gaze was still on Bob.

If... if Bob ever did anything strange, he would bite right in.

Bob was relieved that he had stopped roaring and walking around himself, but it was understandable that he was still not completely distracted by the wolves.

So, please come back as soon as you can.

While listening to such a voice, Ray and the others entered the fairy village.

Once inside the fairy township, a large number of fairy people came to say they were waiting.

"Ah! It's Nielsen! There's Ray too!"Hey, hey, don't you have any souvenirs?Sweets, sweets, sweets! "

It doesn't have to be sweets, it has to be fruits!

I like dried meat!

Even though some of the fairies said they wanted to eat dried meat, Ray was surprised.

When I came here before, the fairy once asked me to give me sweets and fruits, but there was no dried meat in them.

Of course, considering the character of the fairy, it's not strange to imitate it like stealing dried meat while playing a prank somewhere.

However, considering the preferences of the fairies, they would have preferred sweets and fruits to dried meat.

(Nevertheless, people's preferences are also very different.If it's a fairy, isn't it strange that some people are interested in dried meat just because they're curious?)

After judging that, Ray handed over the fruits and sweets appropriately.

Give the dried meat properly to the fairy who wants it.

Originally, there was no need to imitate Ray to give him sweets and fruits every time he came to Fairyland.

Even so, I gave them to them because I thought they would be very stuck if I didn't.

Of course, if the fairy had told me to get on my feet and do more, it would have been a different story.

Fortunately, the fairies were good at spotting that area.

If anything happens, you understand that you will be scolded by the chief.

"Come on, we have an errand to attend to, so please leave us alone."If you get in our way here, you'll be angry with the Chief! "

When Nielsen told me that, the other fairies couldn't argue either.

If you say something here and you don't want to get angry at the head for it, you probably think so.

The fairies took their own loot and moved away from Ray.

Of course, the number of sweets and fruits Ray gave her was limited, so it didn't reach all the fairies.

The fairies chased after the food Ray gave them.

Of course, the fairy with the sweets and fruits runs away because she wants to eat them herself... but while we're chasing after each other, we completely forget why we were imitating each other.

I'm obsessed with chasing... and then, of course, the sweets and fruits are slower than the weight.

Without disturbing me, I threw away the sweets and fruits I had around me... and suddenly another fairy took them and tried to make them my own.

After that, another fairy began to chase after her...... such exchanges continued.

"Come on, Ray. Let's go."

Ray obeyed Nielsen's words.

If I stay here, the fairies who are tired of chasing after me may come back.

Just as I was going through the fairy township, some of the fairies didn't come to where Ray was just now.

Although I was curious, I was somewhat calm.

Or something more intriguing than Ray and focused on.

Even so, some people looked at Ray with a slightly interesting look, but there was no other person who could burst in like before.

(Nielsen did, too, but it doesn't have to be in a tree when a fairy goes to bed.)

Looking at the fairy asleep on the flower, Ray felt like that.

A fairy sleeping on a flower is a very picturesque sight.

I guess the sleeping fairy didn't think she looked like that.

I was blinded by the sight, and I continued on to Fairy Home... and eventually arrived at the deepest part of Fairy Home, where there was a leader.

In addition, on the way, the wolf child came again, and he left Ray to deal with it.

I'm more convinced that Ray will be noisy when he's talking to the chief.

You came back so soon, didn't you?

When the chief sees Ray and Nielsen, he says so.

At first, Ray thought the words of the chief were cynical or something.

After I got the Smog Panther's Magic Stone, I camped somewhere along the river, and then I came back to Fairyland.

However, I didn't mean to be particularly ironic when I saw the long figure, and I really thought that Ray and the others were coming back quickly from the bottom of my heart.

In fact, the chief thought that even if Ray and the others got the Smog Panther's Magic Stone well, it would take even longer to get back... it wouldn't be strange if it took ten days.

However, in reality, it only took a few days to return.

This was frankly surprising to the chief.

Looking at the state of such a length, Ray said a little puzzled.

I thought you said it was too late.

"It's so late... but I think you picked up some extra stuff along the way... no, I see."

The director who suddenly changes the subject.

Ray immediately understands what the captain is saying.

"Bob... you mean the one who's waiting in front of Fairyland?"

“Yes, that person. It's got some sort of stain on it.”

"... dirt?"

I didn't understand the meaning of the word "dirty", and at first I thought that I was saying "dirty" in the sense that my body was dirty, but I could see that it was different from raw hatred by looking at the length.

“Yes, I think I've dealt with something like that.Besides... it looks like you're connected to someone through the dirt. "

"Ah... I see. I see."

"Ray? What's wrong?"

I guess I didn't understand Ray's idea.

Nielsen asked with a strange look.

"Bob didn't have to follow us, but you said the enemy came to where we were camping, right?"The reason for this is probably the connection due to the dirt.I don't know how you do it, but maybe you can find out where Bob is somehow. ”

"Ah, so... but why did you come so close without Zet noticing?"

"Huh? Honestly, I don't even know where it is."However, I may be using that stain.... actually, we need to find out what it is to capture them. "

This is how Ray finally understood how Bob was being chased.

... but that was all I expected.
