Magic Gems Gourmet

The sky at the edge of the valley starts to rise in the morning.

Ain woke up, dressed herself, and left the room, just in time to join Dill in the bowl.

“Good morning, are you ready?”

Oh no. I'm fine now, but where's Dill?

“I'm fine, too. Now, let's get to it."

Ein thought about the possibility of Katima going with him.

But it looks like he's still asleep.

In the first place, Dill came out of the room aiming for that gap.

Is that okay with you anyway?

"What? What is it?"

Even if Ein-sama didn't carry his own legs, of course, I could have sent someone to pick up the goods.

”Hmm... this is the side I asked for.”

Otherwise, I would have asked someone.

... naturally, it depends on the situation.

In any case, Ain, as the one who had asked for work, was in a position to show his face, to say thanks, and to receive the goods that he had asked for.

But Dill didn't forget to thank her.

Ain is too light on footwork, but he is still the next king.From time to time, some people forget their positions and make a fuss together, but they are definitely the next king.

As a result, he could not remain silent in his position.

Besides, it's a corner trip.

The morning sun shone into the crossing hallway as Ein's laughter continued unchanged today.

◇◇◇◇

Ain went the other day without a trace, guided by Shannon.

If I get lost, the Fuoruns will guide me.

--Our God.

- Welcome.

― ― ― The chief is over there.

Ein, who had received a welcome almost the same as the other day, smiled bitterly, and although Dill walked next to him, he was surprised once, but he immediately moved on to the forest with a new feeling.

I eventually saw the lake beyond the forest.

The Elder of Fuorun has his roots in that place.

At the same time, something was placed in front of the fountain.

(I don't know.)

Ein approaches something like this.

It was hardwood, covered with giant leaves, bound with vines.The shade peeks from the gap, shining like a polished crystal.

It didn't seem to be called charcoal, by and large.

"I don't want to work for 300 years anymore."

When Ein arrived, the elder let out a sigh.

That's not Kongwu.

“Thank you. I'm so glad you're here.”

"Don't worry about it.I also had an interesting experience with the bowl.Because the material is too good to create a new vajra tree. "

"Hmm? You mean it was such an unusual result?"

"It's not something else." So be careful when you use it.I can't even imagine how much firepower that vajra tree could provide. "

That 's--that's amazing.

Without a doubt, we've got the charcoal to meet Shearling's expectations.

(Asked them to be careful not to burn the workshop afterwards.)

Shearling, maybe the amateur Ein doesn't have to worry about it.

But that Mutton. Instead of making a stir with his disciple Emme, he may be willing to smith in front of a great flame.

In any case, let me add that it is a delicacy.

Next to Ein, Dill gently lifted the Vajra Wood.

Are you all right?

“Of course, I'll take care of it.”

Dill says that and leaves Ain's side.

It's not like I'm leaving first.

Ein was still trying to talk to the elder, so I decided to take the vajra tree to the forest first.

By the way, Lord, you've been making a lot of noise in the nearby forest.

"Did you know that?"

"My brothers and sisters have spoken.I heard you fought the dwarves on the plains a little further away. "

”No... honestly, I don't really understand it either, but it seems that it's not a dwarf, it's a dwarf's legacy”

Oh, by the way, there used to be a dwarf fort nearby.

Ein frowned at the curious words.

"Their technology was quite impressive."Until it was scattered by the civil commotion, it was already proud of its glory. "

"Well, civil unrest is..."

What, you don't know?

"Yeah. I know what I learned yesterday, but the dwarf technology is barely modern."It seems that there are many things in their history that have not been left behind. "

"--It might be something I can't help."But there was a lot going on on this continent. "

"If you don't mind, can you tell me a little bit?"

Yeah, that's all right.

Ein opens his eyes to the pleasure.

I finished carrying the vajra tree, and I heard a surprise voice coming from behind Dill who was coming back.

The elder came from you?

It's amazing, it's precisely due to the prestige of the world's trees

Shouldn't we miss this opportunity?

That's right. We need to make sure that you work for us as usual.

To the voice of the elder, which is spoken of by the mouth, the elder shakes the branches uncomfortably.

Normally, the sound of leaves rubbing against each other, which heals the ears, was heard by Jinta only this time.

"Wow!" I won't be working for a while! Absolutely not! "

After the Fuoruns raised their voices all the time, their elders roared with a mighty voice.

"... it's weird. Everyone was honest and cute when they were seedlings."

"There's nothing I can do about it, it's going to grow."

"Well... oh my. The world is ruthless."The long-lived are slippery and neglected. "

The elder seems to be satisfied here, and he coughs once.

Ein jumped to his heart's content to finally hear the story.

Even Dill, who's back next door, is curious to know a history he doesn't know.

"The Dwarfs' land flourished alongside the Dark Elves'."

It's a new story again. Neither Ain nor Dill imagined that the word Dark Elf would be here.

"But even if it is a country, it is small.At that time, it was big enough to take the name of the kingdom, but now it's true... it can only be done on the scale of a small city. "

The land of the Dark Elves is farther west than here, close to the border city of Clifford, where Ein used to be.

When it comes to the frontier city of Clifford, the city where Baron Krim, Batz's father, is serving as commander, and if you want to add more information, it is next to the area where he stopped during the Black Dragon disturbance.

Meanwhile, it is a dwarf country, but if you go back a dozen days on foot from the forest where Ein is now, you will reach the relevant area.

"Before that, there were many nations that were proud of their prosperity."But in the past, only Ishtarika was able to continue to enrich the country.― ― ― ― It means that the feat of the hero king has been extraordinary.

"--Oh, I see."

"Let's go back to the story." It's said that the Dwarf kingdom was destroyed by civil unrest, but at the same time, the Dark Elf kingdom was also destroyed. "

According to him, it involves the kings of the two races.

"The Dark Elf Queen was cunning."Its cunning robbed the heart of the artisanal Dwarf King, and the relationship of power between the two began to break down.... and then there were many Dwarves who loved the Dwarf Queen so much that she turned her back on the Dwarf King. "

Precisely this is a word of leaning.

It would be a linguistic mistake to depress the opposite sex and tilt the country.

The voice of the talking elder also gave me a glimpse of the feeling.

“Among those who disagreed with the Dwarf king, there were those who spoke out that a new king should be chosen.”

Is that what caused the civil unrest?

"That's right. That said, I hear there weren't many dead."Because the dwarf king was soon to leave the country. "

Ein's breasts are fast, keep up!and rushes up the early bell.

"I heard that the dwarf who left the country was the brother of King Dwarf.The Dwarves led by them will become the people of Ishtarica and support the modern Baltic. ”

"--- So how did the rest of the Dwarf land perish?"

"Because the Dark Elves took away my technology and soon fell into decline."All that remained was an introverted dwarf who had less to do with other races.Everything from food to ingredients has been depleted, and I can't seem to maintain my appearance as a country anymore.So in the end, many of their proud buildings became ruins. "

How long did it take to perish?

If I'm not good enough, I may have perished at the speed of two generations or one generation.

But if I had listened, it seemed like I had no choice but to perish.

Ein and Dill looked at each other and shared their emotions.

“So far, it seems like the land of the Dark Elves has grown.”

Yeah.

"But they were stupid."... the technology you took from the Dwarves must have made you nervous.Nearly every warrior was killed by a single Sword King when he attacked Ishtarika, who was still alive. "

(... your father?)

"The surviving warriors surrendered.Some of the Dark Elves that remained in the country surrendered, and eventually the Dark Elves that remained in the country divided into hundreds and lost their appearance as a nation. "

The Dark Elves must have launched their attacks before Mark was born.

Otherwise, Ein would have been made to feel it with herself.

The events in the built world deviated from history, but there were no omens like omens for them, so if you want to hear more about them, you should visit Cain.

"It's all about stupid countries.I pray that you will not behave like the foolish king of the past as a people who are not subjects of the Lord, but have roots in this continent. "

--- I'm decent.

Yes, we're the right people.

It's like the great head we saw when we were seedlings.

"... damn it. I don't care if you're always great."

The elder's voice, which he could not help, was by no means dissatisfied.

He was like a father who gave birth to a young child, pregnant with warmth and inclusiveness.

"Elder, thank you for telling me valuable stories besides Kong Wood."

"It doesn't matter. But you can tell him as well."Now that you've fulfilled your promise for that day,

"... who is he? Ein-sama?"

Ein did not answer, but returned a bitter smile to Dill, who tilted his head.

“I may be able to talk to you again.Because the historian of the capital of the king might definitely say, "

Mm, that's when--

"I know. I'll give you what the elder wants."I may not want much, but I will do my best to accommodate your request, so it would be helpful if you could just talk to me. "

"... then take some of them to the Lord's castle."It doesn't have to be right away. "

"To my castle? Could it be, Fuorun?"

The elder shakes the branches and creates ripples in the lake.

It seems to be the answer.

Some people want to go to the Lord's side, right?

I don't care what you say.

Fuorun is a tree.

"It's a tree with roots, so I can't carry it that far so easily..."

"The monsters are no different."Therefore, I would like to ask my brothers and sisters to move somewhat because it is flexible.Then we can tell the story in more detail and help the historian turn it into a book. ”

The elder repeats.

"With Fuorun, the surrounding land will be abundant."I think we can bring fruit to the capital. "

Ein, who had already decided on the answer, nodded afterwards, listening to the date.

I'm sure Sylvard will forgive me.

Fuorun is known as a monster without malice, and there are aspects that the elder spoke of.

If it had taken root in the king's city, everyone would certainly have been delighted.

"Elder, I want to stay in a good relationship with the elder."

"Hahaha! No thanks!" I'm so glad you gave me a good answer! "

Ain said goodbye afterwards.

He refreshed his perception of the elder, who said that he did not like to work hard.

(Well, if you work for your brothers and sisters, you work for them.)

In other words, it's full of paternity.

“Lady Ein. Looks like things are moving in the right direction.”

"Yeah, thanks to the elders."

I can say that this trip---and the inspection was a great success.

There are only a few days left.

Of course, I want to enjoy it until the end.
