Let's Manage The Tower

A tavern in the city of Achill.

Currently, there are troops stationed in the city of Achir patrolling the streets of the Seuri forest.

They are also due to enter the woods for a patrol in a few days' time.

Those soldiers were crowded with taverns.

A few days in the city is a precious time for them.

It was their staple to use that time to remove the frame as much as possible.

Of course, I was told not to take it off too hard.

A new customer came into the tavern where the soldiers would show off their grief.

The customer gathered the eyes of the soldiers and immediately turned into a surprised face, then leaned his neck.

I was surprised because the guests who came in were beautiful women and I knew them.

She then tilted her neck because she knew that she had gone into the woods of Seuli a few days ago.

The story of the two beautiful women we met in the woods a few days ago was obvious among the soldiers.

The names Kouchi and Mitsuki quickly spread among the military, and it was in a sense natural that resentment was voiced against the assistants who were acting together at the same time.

Kouchi, one of the two beauties, drooling to find someone as soon as he entered the tavern.

Soldiers who wanted to distract her immediately called out.

"Who are you looking for, Kouhi?"

"Are you with me today?"

Kouhi leaned his neck and asked the soldiers who had spoken to him.

"I heard you had a captain here."

Kouhi said so, and the eyes of the soldiers gathered in the space that occupied the corner of the tavern.

The sight raised the captain with a bitter smile.

"You guys. What do you want me to do when I tell you where my superiors are?

I was the captain who said that, but I know I wasn't particularly blamed for standing up right away.

I'm sure the people around you know that.

Only the laughter echoed in the store.

Looking at those men once, the captain immediately turned to Kouhi.

"So? What happened to me?

The captain turned a slightly tighter gaze towards Kouhi, but he didn't blame Kouhi, he thought something had happened with her presence here, which was supposed to have gone deep into the forest.

As the captain expected, Kouhi sent a letter from his pocket.

"Let's start with this. We'll talk about it later."

After saying that and nodding only once to Kouhi, who sent the letter, the captain received the letter.

"Can I read this here?

"No problem, but I don't think I should show it to the people around me if possible."

Kouhi said so, and the soldiers who were watching the surroundings made a wild noise.

Some of the people who normally let the drunkenness make noise, but suddenly decided it was bad to calm down, took the same attitude as before.

Then the others made noise with it.

Kouhi, who saw it, thought he was a well-trained soldier in his head.

Of course, I didn't put it on my face.

In the meantime, the captain opened the letter he had received from Kouchi.

There was no untouchable one to peek at it.

Even if it is a secret book or a secret document, it is thoroughly stated that it will not be seen until permission is given.

Still, I can see the surrounding high-ranking officials watching the captain.

The captain's expression as he looked at the letter did not change like a soldier, but he found that the color of his eyes changed when he was in front of him.

You realized the importance of what was written in the letter.

I changed my gaze from a letter to Kouhi before I heard it.

"What's the example?

"Here."

The captain prompted Kouchi to retrieve something from his pocket again.

It was the "King's Medal" that I received from the examiner.

Instead of taking it, the captain checked what was on Kouhi's hand.

Though the captain is entrusted with a squad of troops, he does not know exactly what belongs to the country.

However, the emblem on Kouhi's hand undoubtedly depicted the royal emblem of the kingdom of Tauzen.

Something with the Royal Sigil is not as easy as that.

That alone proves that some of what is written in the letter is correct.

"... I understand. So, what are they gonna do now?

The letter contains the truth about what is happening in the forest of Seuli (?), but it didn't say what the examiners were going to do.

Kouchi tilted his neck slightly to the question, but answered immediately.

"I don't care what they say. Do you think you'll continue on your journey as before?

Kaosuke seemed to be thinking a lot about the elves in the Seuli forest, but he didn't seem particularly willing to stick his neck in the case of people.

If so, I don't intend to do anything more than deliver a letter.

The examiner didn't tell me to help.

"That won't do. If it turns out to be true, there should be a payback or something in the Federation."

Kouchi shook his head in response to the captain's offer.

"I don't think the Lord will accept the reward. If you take it in this stream, you'll think it belongs to the kingdom of Tausen."

"You don't belong to Tausen?

Kouchi shook his neck again to the right and left of the captain who tilted his neck.

"I used it to gain credibility this time, but that's all. I don't belong to the kingdom of Tausen in particular."

Hmm, that's what I'm talking about.

The captain, who understood Kouchi's arguments, nodded convincingly.

"Anyway, tell him that you understand the contents of the letter. Of course, we'll investigate."

"Of course. I will be sure to tell you. Bye."

Kouhi, who heard what he wanted to ask, said that he had nothing else to do and left the scene.

The captain who was left behind felt the sight of his surroundings, but now he thought with his head in his heart what to do about it.

The day after the discussion between Kaiseki and Romana ended.

There was a rumor among the elves in the forest of Seuli.

The rumor was that there was a transfer gate between the town and the tower on the Central Continent.

Elves who had lived in a closed village from far away had first heard the story as eyebrows.

However, in a story that was added to the rumor, I realized that it was realistic.

The story was that the elf village in the tower was experiencing an increased birth rate.

As Romana predicted, if the birth rate really increases, rumors are spreading after being perceived favourably.

For the elves, it was a good idea to grab the straw.

It's no wonder you want to jump at a story like it came down.

Incidentally, we are talking about opening a hole in the forest of Seuri, but of course there are other intentions.

I've been talking to Colette before, but if we keep marrying each other in one village, things will go wrong.

I was discussing various issues with the village chief to solve these problems, but there was no good solution.

So I decided to use it fortunately because of the problems in this village.

By now, Colette sent by Kaosuke to the tower will be talking about the transfer gate.

If the same elves can interact with each other, there will be minimal confusion in the tower.

Even in that sense, this story became meaningful to the tower.
