We just found the First Villager. I work in a nearby field. Let's just speak up.

"Hello"

"Who...?

The First Villager looked terribly surprised and called out when he found this one.

Probably an elf, a beautiful woman in her twenties or so with long golden hair tied behind her back. My ears seem just a little pointy, but otherwise they look no different than humans.

"Sorry, sorry to surprise you. We're the ones looking into the elves.

Don't do anything harmful. Can you let me talk to him?

"... Somebody come!!

I was worried the words would make sense but I was fine. But the First Villager called my people. Kind of a hassle......

The First Villager is in a battle with a sickle. Silently stop Leeds and Claire from trying to take out their weapons.

"What the fuck!

Two girls with swords rushed over. They're both little blonde girls. The sword the girl has is a regular double-edged single-handed sword, not a falcata-shaped single-handed sword. Where'd McHaela go? Bring the legendary sword.

"Hi. Hello."

"Who!? How did you get into this village!?

I'm going to say hello to you as briskly, refreshingly, as possible, but two people who won't let me go off guard.

No wonder the elves have broken through. I don't know why I was able to break through either. I think Luna did something......

"Luna, how could you break through the line?

"I don't know...... For some reason, I thought this was the right thing to do. So are the directions to this point."

"Are you...?

Suddenly a voice rang from behind us.

Looking back in surprise, one little gray-haired grandfather stood behind him at some point. He has a white mustache on his mouth, but he looks classy somehow.

The grandfather doesn't have anything like a weapon and walks up to us without warning. The eyes seemed full of confidence and felt like majesty.

"How did you know about this place?

Grandpa repeats the question. I don't see the color of anxiety or confusion. He stared at us in a grand position.

"The friendly dragon showed you around, didn't he?

I'm not lying. We just went after that dragon.... Maybe he was going to hang himself in a trap?

Ordinary human beings are shipwrecked when they approach the juncture. There's no river nearby. If you get wrecked in the woods, it's hard to get home alive.

"Mm... Wolfan brought me..."

He had a name? Was it still an elf keeper dragon?

"Right. He may not have guided us."

"Aren't you being rude? Wolfan hates humans so much."

Oh? I was prepared for some clashes, but aren't the people here so resenting humans? Thank you, though.

"No, it was rude of him, but it would be nice to say that there was mutual.

And you don't resent humans more than that?

"I used to resent it... But I don't resent you now. I understood that not all humans were evil after the war was over."

"Right...... You may not want to engage with humans, but we're not going to do any harm to the people here. I just want you to let me talk."

"Hmm...... I've never seen anything like this before. I don't know what to do."

"Can you de-alert me first? I want to give you a souvenir."

I could give you the snake earlier, but I'm going to give you Ruby and silver that's going to be more than happy here. I'll leave the sapphire aside.

Silver is a small amount, and ruby and sapphire are made from dirt, so it's free. My nostrils don't hurt.

"Behold! You mean give me this!?

Grandpa took it with great joy, but the young elf doesn't look happy...... You seem disappointed in one way or another.

"Doesn't the young seem happy, but isn't it very precious in this village?

"Young people don't know the value of this. I want you to forgive me.

Besides, what we need most in this village right now is food. "

Don't you know the value of silver and ruby? I think the guy who makes the magic props knows... Speaking of elves, it would be a magic prop.

Well, I know you need food. Food is scarce if civilization does not advance beyond. The King's capital, which has plenty of food, is unusual.

But there was a field of considerable size around the village, and it seemed to be fruitful there. There are also magic props, so it's not strange to have an efficient production of the earth.

I don't know if I'll be happy, but I'll give you the mamba, too.

"I can't give it all away, but I also have this stuff"

Saying as he retrieved the mamba, the complexion of the young elves changed. Surprised by the serpent without his neck, he gives a delightful look.

You have a culture of eating here. It might have been quicker to give it to me first.

The two guard-like girls remain vigilant, but the first one I met went back to field work.

"Thank you. I haven't had much food these days. It's a little tricky."

"There seems to be a lot of fields, though?

"No, the field isn't big enough. Would there have been boundaries around this village?

You mean the junction that Luna broke through. The sense of direction was insane, the sign perception ceased to work, and it was quite a nasty juncture. It's more dangerous than the type of junction that makes invisible walls in the woods.

"Oh. What's wrong with that junction?

"In recent times, the boundaries have narrowed. The fields are getting a lot narrower because of it."

"Is the junction about to break?

"No, the connections that are running now are fine. There were three devices in the junction, but they destroyed two of them."

That's a problem! Two out of three isn't working. That's a pretty critical situation.

"Are you being attacked by some country again?

"It is not...... It's not Elf's past fault. It's the reward of dyeing your hands for what you shouldn't do."

Oh? I thought humans blew the war of aggression and destroyed it, but the elves were doing something too?

My grandfather kept talking with a bitter look on his face.

"Sometimes I resented humans... Elves also did outrageous things. We were doomed."

"Is that okay? In the country where I was born, there was still literature on elves, albeit marginally.

There was no record of the elves doing anything outrageous... "

"Mm... right... That's what happened. The only people who know that weapon are the Han Empire.

When the war is over, only weapons remain, stripping us of our fangs. It's ironic. "

"Can't you destroy that weapon and them?

"I can't do that. You can't make extra sacrifices. Because it's not what you come across."

"Hey, that's what we're talking about, right?

Claire corrected the flow of the story. I would have liked to know more about weapons......

"... sorry. That's right. Ruby and silver that your lords gave you... with this we can repair the junction.

I gave it up because it's no longer available in this village. Thank you. "

I see. This village is made by cutting through the woods. I don't think there's a mineral vein here. And resources are skewed if you never make a deal with anywhere.

Even if you knew the means to repair it, couldn't you do anything about it?

"The fact that you don't have the ingredients means you're not making magic props anymore?

"Right...... When we abandoned the country and fled, there were no more competent craftsmen left. I don't even get the ingredients. I've already lost it."

"Right...... That's too bad."

"I'm sorry, but can you answer this question?"

"What?

"The only connections I put up here are those that pass through the elves. Otherwise, they will be lost.

Your lords are not like humans, and one is not a beast. Wonder how we got there. "

"Um... that's me. I felt like someone was calling, so I headed there."

Luna raised her hand to apologize and said. But I couldn't get there without Luna. I think I was lost and in trouble.

"Become!? I don't know if that's possible..."

"What's up, Grandpa?

My grandfather, who had ever been calm and grand, showed confusion.

"Not before the war begins. An elf princess has been married to a human country. Though you wouldn't know it from generations ago in human life.

I think the Lord is his descendant. What's going on with your lord's lineage?

If I said it was before the war, it would have been 1,000 years ago. There wouldn't be any lineage or shit after all that time. I think the blood is diluted and the calpis water is drained from the calpis water.

"My parents died when I was a kid... so I don't know anything..."

Were Luna's parents already dead...... Somehow it was hard to hear and you hadn't heard it yet.

But, Luna, I don't think you have to answer that seriously, do you? I don't know a thousand years ago unless there's any literature left.

"Well...... I've heard bad things about that.

Even before the war, no one is alive, not even the elves. Think of it as old bullshit. "

Is Luna the descendant of the Elf princess...... princess? Are you a royal descendant...... yeah. It doesn't matter. So I'm talking about what happened.

"So is there a problem as well?

"I'm sorry. It doesn't matter to the Lord. The LORD shall be the descendants of the elves and their families. I can't do much, but you should slow down."

The alarm has finally been lifted. Well, if there's someone in a closed village who doesn't know, that's suspicious. There's no reason to be alarmed.

But this grandfather says it's like he's been watching war for some reason. There's an image of longevity when it comes to elves, and there's the possibility of a hell of an age.

"Hey, Grandpa, how old are you?

"I don't know... I don't know how old I am... but I'm probably 800 years old."

That's appropriate, dude. But when you get older, is that so? 800 means a generation that doesn't know war anymore. I wonder if my parents told me that.

Grandpa was called an elder in this village's mayoral position. He said he was "not great just because he's old," but I guess he's the chief that the village residents acknowledge.

I decided to have my tent set up in the corner of the village today.
