My First Trip was to Another World
Elf Village Hero
Here in Elminsur, a whole village of elves has migrated. Living in close proximity, though less involved because of the split residential area.
The only person I'm directly involved with is Elf's Elder. Occasionally he shows up at the palace and gets a status report. Today is the day of the report.
"I'm sorry I took the time to ask you."
"No, it's not a problem. So, how's it going lately?
"The construction of all the houses is over. Now you can live in peace."
Apparently, the digging shed update is complete. The architectural magic props that make the stones are on loan, but all the architecture was done by the elves. I watched him do something in the distance, but I haven't seen the finished product yet.
Don't worry about it.
"Can I see it?
"Of course not. I want you to visit the new village."
Grandpa said, nodding contentedly. Let us sweeten your words and show you the village.
The new Elf village was built a short distance from the palace. The perimeter of the palace is dotted with broken buildings, but it has been decided to leave them unanimously. It's an important historical document. Restorable parts shall be restored, and parts that cannot be restored shall also be left as much as possible in the current situation.
From the palace to the village of Elf, about ten minutes' walk. The palace I live in was once used as a royal palace. Considering the times, we built a village where the castle was located.
It was heavily weathered and completely drinkable by the woods. I cut it open and tidied it up, but I only found a little something that looked like a relic. For this reason, he did not hesitate to build villages and fields.
The village of the new elf is lined with symmetrical stone houses. The village of the old elf was made of wood, but once the elf lived in a stone house. I guess I made it in the way it was then.
The sewers are in place. The upper water is pulling from the palace, and the sewage flows into a large hole dug in the back of the forest. The treatment of sewage is solved with special magic props. I don't know how it works, but they'll fertilize it in a short time.
Walk through the village with Grandpa's explanation. Then, in the middle of the village, a large, circular park was built. It's paved with cobblestones and it's pretty lavish. Just the right place to stop for a walk.
"Isn't that a good place? Can I come here now and then, too?
"Of course not. That's not all I'm proud of. Look in the middle."
When they said that and shifted their gaze to the center of the park, there were several large stone statues lined up there. The big stone statue in the middle looks a little familiar... or me.
"Stop it! What a creation! I'm so embarrassed!
I'm not the only one. If you look closely, there are even stone statues of Luna, Leeds, Claire and Mr. Lily. Leeds and Lily would love it, but Luna and Claire will definitely hate it.
"Mm... shy good. You're the heroes who reclaimed this land, aren't you?
Grandpa says, without further ado. Looks like I made it for real good.
You can't come here...... What makes you sad and go to a park where your stone statue sits... I'm too shy to bear it.
This park is uncomfortable, so we moved quickly. Further into the back of the village.
I see the villagers, but I just see this one as flirty, and I don't see the will to interact. On the contrary, he seems a little frightened. I'm not offended by anything, but I'm just curious.
"Hey. Why are you guys avoiding me?
I've been a little concerned since I was in the village of the old elf. For some reason, the elders were the only ones who dealt with us, and the other villagers didn't try to get involved with me.
People out there are supposed to be rare, but they don't even try to come and see. I thought it was a little unnatural.
"Your Lord's aura is too strong. Non cares so much, but it's too irritating for the others"
"Hmm? Really? You've never been told that anywhere else, have you?
"I heard humans are blunt... but they haven't noticed."
I wonder why... I wonder if it's because of physical strengthening. We always activate physical enhancement when we're asleep or awake. At first it was for training, but now I get anxious if I'm not wearing physical strengthening.
However, my physical enhancement is a technique that suppresses the magic that leaks out of my body. Aura should be weaker the other way around. Maybe it's a feeling only the elves can understand.
"Right...... Then I guess it's annoying to come to this village"
"No, that's not true. To the Lord, we are all grateful. It may be hard to understand, but I also have respect for you.
Right... for example, if the king was nearby, he'd be nervous and atrophied? That's what I'm talking about. "
It's hard to understand the analogy... Never before has it atrophied on a king. That's what I've been feeling since I was in Japan.
"I don't know, but I kind of passed it on. I hope it's not a nuisance."
"Well, we'll all get used to it sometime. Stay with me."
No, no, Elf's temper's too long. Life expectancy is different. Aren't I gonna be jizzy by the time you get used to it? Well, when the elves have business, should I pinch the elders between them?
Walking through the village, a security girl, often seen in the village of the old elf, rushed over.
"Grandpa! Oh my God! Uroboros is out!
"Mm... ok. Gather those who can fight in the square. Non will take you with a metastasis."
When Grandpa gave the immediate instructions, the girl rushed away. Speak to your grandfather as you drop it off.
"Uroboros? Were you still there?
"Mm-hmm. With the information we have, two more. Not one of them."
"You're almost to the eradication. But what happened to the junction? If we had a bond, no demons would come in, would they?
"Uroboros... absorbs even the magic that makes up the bond. The village has also been attacked several times."
I see...... Aren't you the natural enemy of the elves?
If you are a normal demon, you cannot reach the village by being held back by the junction. I think a flying demon can make it through the border, but unfortunately a dragon (the elder's pet) won't allow it to break in.
The only thing launching an attack is Uroboros, a biological weapon developed by the elves. That's ironic.
"Well, let's go help out a little bit"
"Are you coming with me?
"Oh. I'm free today. Besides, I don't like it when they raze the villages I've built."
"Uhm, that helps. Because there is no doubt that he is a dangerous opponent, even though there is a must-have"
The magic item I made called "Capacitor" absorbs the magic of Uroboros. Originally made with the intention of a battery filled with magic, it turns out to work tremendously against Uroboros.
With about twenty empty capacitors, you can wipe out Uroboros. Then, magic builds up to open the gate to Earth. Great value for one stone and two birds.
Together with about twenty inhabitants of the village, they moved near Uroboros. It is quite far from the village.
Elminsur's boundaries are as wide as fools, and I don't get the full story. The elves seem to be walking around and grasping because there was a reboot of the junction. I wonder if I should walk around any of them. It's my own garden.
Check Uroboros again. This time, Uroboros is slightly larger in size. They're accumulating a good amount of magic.
Uroboros absorbs the magic of all creatures, including humans, elves and demons, rendering the opponent incapacitated. Once they've built up enough magic, they're going to set up some kind of attack magic. If this size absorbed a little more magic, it would turn into an attack.
I've never seen that attack before. I always burn them before they attack me.
"I'll help you, too, so tell me as soon as it's dangerous."
"... thank you..."
A traceable thank you came back. I feel more scared than Uroboros.
If the elves are the only ones who can deal with it, I'm not gonna get my hands on it. Being unfamiliar with working with elves, it's dangerous the other way around when you get your hands on it poorly. The elves alone also establish the means to defeat them, so we first observe them statically.
The elf threw a capacitor. Avoid turning your body around. I threw the next capacitor there and scraped a little bit of Uroboros black.
What makes up Uroboros is a particulate nucleus. The nucleus is like a dragon, creating the shape of a dragon. When the nuclear magic is completely gone, that part cannot be regenerated.
The one who designed Uroboros has a really bad personality. Absorbing magic stops him completely, making him unable to fight back or escape before stabbing Todome.
The nucleus is too small to work in an attempt to defeat it with a sword, and it magically absorbs it in an attempt to defeat it. The only weakness is the extreme heat, but chanting magic doesn't raise it to the temperature of destroying the nucleus. If humans fight decently, they are near impossible to crusade. Now the elves, the ones who made it, are also struggling quite a bit.
Probably the guy who released this stuff to the world, but the guy who designed it is pretty distorted.
... and why I'm thinking like this, because I'm bored.
Due to the nature of Uroboros, they don't use attack magic with their magic shredded. Because unlike creatures, they can only move as programmed.
The attack pattern of Uroboros nowadays is simply contact and absorb. But as long as you have a capacitor, Uroboros can't absorb magic.
I never get pinched, so I don't show up.
And an elf attack. I think the elves are fighting well. But this is so boring. Throw Capacitor, Avoid, Throw, Hit. This repetition all the time. I can't replace anything. It's boring to watch. It's plain, I'm free, it takes time.
"Hey, is this how it's always going?
"Right. Last time I crusaded one, it took a whole day. It's a little early this time. It's improving."
Grandpa replied, nodding satisfactorily.
Shit. Bad cospa. I thought it would be easy to accumulate magic, but it wasn't that sweet. If this is the case, it's faster to fill the magic with manpower.
"Bad. Let's get this over with, let's get everyone out of here"
"Mm...? Just now?"
Grandpa shrugged with a strange look.
"No, come on!
"... um. Okay."
He confirmed that the elf had evacuated to the safety zone and stood in front of Uroboros. It's small and missing all over my body, but it still leaves the shape of a dragon. At that rate, it wouldn't have ended at sundown.
Did Uroboros feel bad about his minutes, turn his heels back and try to escape? No, no, he said he wouldn't miss it.
When the elves were subjected to the magic of heat resistance, they unleashed a larger fireball towards Uroboros. The temperature is 6,000 degrees. The battle ended in an instant. No, it's not even a battle. The fireball swallowed the uroboros and evaporated the uroboros as it melted the ground.
Confirming with care that the signs of Uroboros had disappeared, he turned to the elders.
"It's over."
"Ha!? What 'd you do? Lord, what have you done now?
Grandpa says excitedly.
"What, you've told me before? Uroboros is vulnerable to high temperatures. Burn it and it'll be over easily."
"Such a flame... I've never seen it..."
He has distant eyes, pulling his face together. Is that so surprising? I think elves can do it normally.
"No, you told me before. The magic attribute of the elf. That's the application, right?
"I don't remember teaching such magic..."
"You can do it if you practice. Because it's just unchanging magic."
The elders are tilting their necks, but well, they don't care. Too much time was spent in the Uroboros battle. We know what's going on in the village of the new elf, and we should go home today.
A few days later.
Did they show my bravery in the Uroboros? What a thought, but it was totally counterproductive. The elves who were in the Uroboros battle became even more frightened of me. On the contrary, when you see me, the beginning and end of worship with your hands together.
In addition, the offering has now arrived. I originally received the land money, but apart from that, food and crafts are sent to me personally.
Grandpa gave it to me, grumbling with a wrap marked 'Dedication'.
"Me, treating you like a god?
"I don't mean to. Everyone's in awe."
With that said, Grandpa's face is cramped. I guess it's more awe than awe...... Well, that's fine.
