One day. Seiki, standing in the kitchen, sighs, opening the underfloor storage.

"It's gone. The onion has run out."

The dungeon onions that were stored in large quantities have disappeared.

The reason is gone. Seiki ate too much.

Dungeon onions are quite large, with the size of a single ball larger than the baby's head, but Haruki flattens the whole ball at a time.

Once you eat, you will not stop. The dungeon onions were so delicious.

"I can't help it. Go get it."

Haruki muttered as if harvesting crops from a vegetable garden, but headed to the dungeon.

A variety of demons are rampant in the dungeon that suddenly appeared in Japan five years ago.

Naturally, those demons are different from any living thing on earth. Vicious, ferocious, and strong enough to easily take a person's life.

If you are careless, you will lose your life easily. To go to such a place, Seiki is a little nervous.

That should be it. Seiki had already grown up to the second floor of the "garage dungeon" in her home, where she could clear it without difficulty.

Equipped with dungeon gear, Haruki headed to the second floor of the "garage dungeon".

"Well!"

Haruki who drew his dagger smiled at his mouth.

What we are going to do is defeat monsters. It is a struggle with life forms that kill humans. But now Seiki's head is all about roasted onions-today's lunch.

The onions stand and stop before Haruki steadily moves deeper into the dungeon.

One touch of armor sleeve. Seiki handles them quickly and puts them in her bag.

They were boldly attacking onions, but their opponents were bad. Haruki, who was instructed by Kitora from an early age and learned to harvest a variety of crops, is scared to attack onions.

A little while after entering the dungeon.

Harvesting onion monsters so far-no, Haruki's hand, which he has defeated, has stopped.

"......... Hmm?"

In front of Seiki, there was a three ball onion. The monster, unlike before, did not attack Seiki.

Without attacking, Santama shook and shook each other.

Seiki stepped forward one step. Then, the onion monsters shuddered and jumped up.

At the time of the jump, flowers bloomed at the top of the head.

"Huh?"

Seiki tilted her head greatly.

Usually, demons attack humans. Even if humans are overwhelmingly strong, they attack humans frankly. Such a creature.

However, the onion monsters in front of me were shaking rather than attacking Seiki.

It's as if "Wow! "Please miss it!" "" ] As if I was scared ...

It is Haruki who is scared of them-to humans.

This was the first composition for Seiki.

If monsters attack, you can fight without any resistance. However, if they come together and become scared, they lose their will to fight. Even Seiki, who changed her eye color to harvest vegetables, didn't want to harvest it.

(Hmm, is that a strategy?)

Are you going to attack you when your opponent is out of guard? However, the appearance of the onions is truly approaching. Seiki did not see it acting.

(Fight with this, it's just bullying)

Seiki sighed and put a dagger in the sheath.

Then the onions, which had been terrified before, looked at each other and fell down on the ground all at once.

The onions are each desperately reaching out, rubbing their faces on the ground.

It is prostrate.

"Well ..."

It ’s like “Hah! "Thank you for overlooking me!" "Thank you for God! ], And their prostrate was filled with heat.

Haruki was amazed by the unexpected behavior of the onions, despite being in a dungeon.

If the opponent were a cunning monster, Haruki who showed a big chance must have been seriously injured or dead at the moment.

However, the onions are desperately rubbing their heads on the ground, knowing or not knowing such terribility.

Seiki opens her mouth with an awkward smile.

"It's alright. I know, raise my head."

"How! "The adventurer has a big heart!" "Thank you, thank you."

As if saying, the onions rubbed hands, moisturizing their eyes.

The opponent is a demon. An enemy of mankind. I know it. But in their gestures, Haruki was completely poisoned.

The bag already has a lot of onions. All this will last a week.

-Do you round up?

Haruki turns his back on the onions and walks towards the ground-

"……Hey"

He stopped and looked back.

"Why do you follow me?"

When I asked, a flower was blooming from the corner of the dungeon, "ぴ ゃ!?"

Needless to say what flowers. Onions.

Seiki noticed the onion pursuit from the beginning. Haruki did not take action so far because he did not feel any hostility from them.

I was worried about what I was pursuing. But forever they did not take action.

So Seiki asked.

As a result, the prostrate began again.

"No, no, I'm not angry, so raise my face ..."

"Really? "Isn't the adventurer messing around? ""teary-eyed"

The onions are approaching horrible Haruki.

It was more like a scared puppy than a monster.

"Why do you follow me?"

"Why? "It's kind of an adventurer."

The onions faced each other and nodded, joined hands and saw Seiki.

Glittering light is floating in their eyes (?).

As if saying "I'll follow you", "I'll go with the adventurer."

"Wow ..."

Monsters and humans compete for life. But their gesture was that of a pet animal.

Though she shouldn't be fooled, Haruki is attracted to her loveliness.

(I wouldn't take a monster home.

Haruki's gaze, which she was thinking, heads toward the bud that gradually extends from the head of the three onion.

A bud can burst when emotions rise. Effect unknown. At this point, his physical condition has not changed, so it seems unlikely to be an attack.

(Is flower a kind of emotional expression like human expression?)

A light flashed in the brain of Haruki who was watching the bud.

--This is it!

I thought it was a good day. Haruki immediately escapes the dungeon, hugging the onion (when he embraced, the bud of Santama popped off). He unleashed the onions on a fallow land next to Seiki's house.

It is a part of the land owned by Seiki, which was used as a home garden before stampede.

"This is your home from today"

"Here is? "Do you live here? "Are that

Thoroughly, the onions tilted all at once.

"Yes. You can use this land freely, but don't go outside here. You can't attack humans. Just keep it."

"Yes," "Okay," "Yeah."

The onions shimmered their eyes and nodded.

"Well, this is lonely, so let's do a little leveling."

With that said, Seiki first treats unlimited weeds.

The horsetails and dandelions are pulled out with carelessness. The onions watching the scene mimic Haruki and pull out the weeds in the same way.

As the weeds came off, the onions lost balance and tumbled backwards.

Rising up, shaking his head, stroking the back of the head, the onion heads to the weed again.

While looking at such a situation, Seiki thinks.

(If they do so, will they have onions in the field next year?)

In summer, the leaves are stretched quickly, and in the fall, dragonflies remain on the leaves. A vast onion field with plenty of earth scent.

Haruki has not seen the onion field of the Kitora family since Stampede. That's because Kitora's wife has died.

It's not just life lost in stampede. Onions, onion seedlings, and fields have all been lost.

(I used to grow with my husband before, but this time with me ...)

If you are with Seiki, Kitora may be able to make an onion field. Having such a faint hope, Seiki would improve the habitat of the onions.

After this day, those who passed in front of Seiki's house were often surprised by the unknown creatures moving in the grass.

However, like the onions who roll around following the butterflies and gaze at the dragonfly that stayed in their head,

"Oh, Haruki-kun from the sky star's house did something strange again, though I can't see him. Ufufu

Yes, he narrowed his eyes.
