Let's Manage The Tower

(9) High Elf

After returning from the fifth floor and eating lunch, it was first summoned by Kouchi.

Mitsuki's summons were supposed to take place after dinner because it was better at night.

Kouhi, who is going to summon me, is currently paying for the seventy-third floor.

It means getting ready for a summons.

It was said that a call would be made using a different method than the method of summoning Warhid and the others, which required preparation.

The warheads are no match for Kouhi and Mitsuki, but they are quite strong from the level of this world.

(What kind of existence calls more laboriously than the six?

I asked Mitsuki about the study aid that I thought of, and even a simple answer came back.

"Oh, that's a misunderstanding."

"Misunderstanding? What do you mean?

"It's not a hassle to summon those six because the level of summoning is high in the first place, so I usually spend more time summoning them.

Well, I don't know if there are any Summoners at the level of summoning those six. "

"... so?

"When I called those six, I had a rough set of conditions, but this time it would take a little time because it would require detailed designation."

"..."?

"This time you need people to manage castles and trees, right? Regardless of the castle, the world tree... no matter what you think, you'll need an expert on the road, so if you don't identify it and call it in, the tree itself will be useless.

That's why I want to call the people, even if it's a hassle. "

"... I see. Mitsuki, do you have any idea who this person is?

"I've got a pretty good idea. Besides, does Kaiseko-san have any idea?

That said, I thought of the existence of a fantasy classic.

"Yes... I knew there were strangers in this world, but I didn't know there was one."

"Speaking of which, I didn't see you at Lüssen. Well, you'd better wait and see if that suits you until Kouchi's summons is over. When I say it here, Kouhi is stubborn."

Imagine Kouhi's perseverance, and he laughed without thinking.

"I will. So...? How's Mitsuki?

"It's also a secret. In my case, it's a castle, so you don't have to stick to it, but it's hard."

Mitsuki said that and smiled nicely.

Somehow I don't feel like I'm falling in love with that smile and being deceived, but I'm not going to force you to listen.

Kouhi came back while he was talking to Mitsuki about it.

"Thank you for waiting. I'm ready."

"Okay. Let's go then.... well, before that, should we set up the tree first?

"... I see. Please do it first."

"Copy that. Just a minute...... okay. It's okay now."

Well, let's go.

After Kouhi said so, the three went to the seventy-third floor.

Three people set up a world tree seedling tree in the middle of the seventy-third floor and headed to the place...

"... this is the seedling?

Since it was called a seedling tree, Kaosuke, who intended to plant something like a small branch, stared at the seedling tree stunnedly.

Even though it's supposed to be a seedling tree, it's almost the same height as the trees around it.

It is true that the thickness is thinner than other trees, but even if it is said to be a seedling tree, it is difficult to be convinced by the feeling of Kaiseki.

"That's right. World trees are different from other trees even though they were originally trees. If this grows, it will be as big as the trees around it.

"How long has it been... incomparable?

It's roughly a hundred meters.

"... chick!?

It is an incredible size.

"It is a sacred tree that is even said to support the world when it is properly grown."

"... heh."

In the meantime, it was a study aid that was well understood that it was different from ordinary trees.

It took time to prepare, but the summons itself seemed to be over soon, with a man summoned after a few seconds of summoning glow.

As expected or not, the ear was elongated and pointed.

"... after all, elves?

"I see. It's a high elf, to be exact."

Kaiseki, who was standing a little away from the summons, checked with Mitsuki, who was next door.

"Hi" was on, but the fantasy classic elf appeared.

It probably didn't leak, it was very beautiful.

The beautifully shaped high elf was having a conversation with the summoner Kouchi.

"Who did you call me out of deep sleep?

"That's right. My name is Kouhi. I wanted you to do something, and I called you."

"... Unfortunately, I'm already...!!!?

The high elf, who uttered the word of rejection, was surprised at Kouhi's instructions and stopped.

"... no way, that's...!?

"That's right. It is a seedling tree of the world tree. I called you to manage it."

"... if that's the case, I'd definitely like to ask you. But... where did you get that?

"Let's talk about that later. Now, let me introduce you to my Lord."

"... Lord?

Kouhi approached Stasta and Kaiseki with a confused high elf.

A high-elf chasing after him in a hurry.

Kouhi, who had been here until before the study visit, introduced the study visit.

"This is my master, Kaisuke."

"... First of all, it's a list of high elves. Thank you very much."

"Hi, it's nice to meet you. This is Mitsuki. I'm a manager for now, but you don't have to be so hard.

Basically, I'll leave this to Kouhi, so please follow Kouhi's instructions from now on. "

"... yes."

Liston greeted the examiner, who was introduced as the main one by Kouchi, without difficulty.

Do you notice such a state or not? The examiner talks to Kouhi lightly.

"Well, can we go back now?

"Yes, I'm fine. I'll tell you the rest."

Got it. Bye.

Kaiseki put that aside and went back to management with Mitsuki.

The rest of Liston asked Kouchi.

"Is that human being your lord...?

"... yes, but what?

"... to be honest, you didn't seem like the kind of person I was supposed to serve?

In Liston's words, Kouhi said with a smile.

"Does that mean you declare your eyes to be holes?

"... what do you mean?

"It means as it is."

"... I don't understand. In any case, to that human...!?

"Shut up."

In just one word, Liston was uttered.

Then, under the pressure from Kouchi, he knelt without shaking his body.

It is said that elves are generally prized. Not to mention the high elves that are said to be present at its apex. It's impossible to bend your own knees.

Liston, the high elf, bent his knees and lowered his head just under pressure.

Even if she refused, her instincts taught her that she was invincible, that her personality was clearly superior, and that she understood that her words touched her scales.

"... I'll forgive you once, but not twice."

"... I'm sorry."

As I leaned down, I finally narrowed down my words with my own thoughts.

"If you do not understand the Lord now, take the time to understand. If you still don't understand, that's all you are."

"... I was afraid."

After hearing the reply, the pressure finally disappeared from Kouchi.

Liston relieved himself of the pressure and finally relaxed his body.

"I'll give you one piece of advice... No, I'll give you one."

"... what is it?

"If you had done the same thing in front of Mitsuki, you wouldn't even be able to exist by now.

"I'm telling you because you don't seem to understand, Mitsuki is the only person I admit to being.

"... thank you for your advice."

Liston lowered his head again on his knees.

Mitsuki, who returned to management, listened with her arms wrapped around the examiner.

"Is that good?

"What happened?

"* giggle *... you know what I mean?

Mitsuki smiled joyfully, and Kaiseki shrugged her shoulders.

I also properly realized that Mitsuki's eyes weren't laughing.

"Well... if it's so obvious, that's right."

It was clear from the examination that Liston looked down on the examination.

That's right.

"So, I don't know if that was good, but I think it was good.

"Hmm... what's in your heart?

"I mean, if you were there any longer, you wouldn't have been able to stand the mite, would you?

Said Mitsuki slapped out her tongue.

"Is that so?

"So I decided to leave the rest to Kouhi to escape."

"Hmm... Well, if Kaiseki-sama is fine with that, so am I."

Ariko... Ngu

Suddenly my lips got blocked.

"Thank you very much. Thank you."

"... you're welcome."

Mitsuki later told Kouhi that he was in a very good mood to prepare for his next summons.
