Three days after I went to the ranch. We were in the woods to see Lynne.

I really wanted to come as soon as the next day, but I said three days later when I broke up, so three days later. I don't have a cell phone. It's very inconvenient. Though it might have been just right for the time to cool your head off.

By the way, I've been spending the last three days collecting information.

Rhina's sister was just attending the Royal School and was familiar with a variety of things, from the level of technology and science to the product, politics, aristocratic royalty, and other matters.

Some things are different, but civilizationally, it's about the same image as the Roman Empire of the original world.

The wonder that, in a way, it is more advanced than the Middle Ages.

There were signs that Eina was still a little wary, but I think she's been pretty deluded by her sister's delicious culinary offense. That's Kaori.

For that reason, as usual, Lynne appeared softly from the shade of the tree when she broke up with Rhina at the entrance to the forest and proceeded for a while.

The last time I suddenly came down from the top of a tree, I was surprised, so maybe he took it into account. Good boy.

"Hey Lynne, a lot of the elves in the city are like people born in the city since they were captured, but is there any way to tell them from forest-born elves?

I tried to appraise the elves I saw in the city as many times as the numbers allowed during the last three days, but although there were some roses in my age, they were all ranch-born and thought-provoking people.

He said that even the ranch he went on a tour to is about 4,000 births a year, so it seems overwhelming in proportion.

Lynne seems to have felt a little hooked on the word city-born elves, slightly strangling her neck. Well, you don't want to imagine that happening...

"... I can't say for sure, but if you judge by your age, you'll know to some extent? It was within the last 100 years that people began actively capturing the Elves, so if you're over 100 years old, there's a good chance you'll be born in the woods."

Oh, I see. Was Elf's 100-year-old a little equivalent to three, in human terms? But not there if you're 12 and 15. It's a unique way to distinguish longevity elves.

But when I think of the elves I've seen so far, I feel like they were all about 12-13 years old in appearance. That's enough to make Lynne look a little older. I guess forest-born elves are still rare.

"Yes, there's a butcher near the inn I was in, but I think you'd probably be just like me or a little above. Why don't you ask him to try it?

"Really! All right, I'll go quick. I'll come back and report, so stay close to here today!

"Yes..."

Break up with Lynne, who looks distracted by my momentum, and join Mr. Lyna for an inn where Lynne used to work.

The old lady, who was the former owner of Lynne, doesn't miss her or want to see her, so the innkeeper goes through and looks for a butcher. The store was quickly found.

It was a human uncle in the store, but when I snuck around the back there was an elf doing laundry. I'll try to activate this sneak appraisal again.

Lena Ant-Elf, 129. Skill: Cloth Processing Lv6 Breeding Lv3 Status: Fasting (Medium) Fatigue (Weak) Status: Slave

Bingo! He's an elf with stunts (skills).

I'm not as good at it as Lynne was when we first met, but I'm guessing they don't feed me much about hunger. I'm a butcher......

Return to the store as soon as possible to negotiate with the owner and Uncle Si (Bo) Shiki.

"Excuse me, I need you to give me the elf behind you"

"Am I?"

Well, I got suspicious as much as I wanted. Was I in too much of a hurry?

"This is disrespectful, not suspicious. In fact, the rich people have asked me to buy an elf that fits the order. I happen to see an elf that fits the request, so I was hoping you could give it up. How about two gold coins?

Arrange the bullshit out of your mouth and attract consciousness by showing gold coins before you are suspected. My uncle has eaten twice the price.

That's right, I was negotiated the price like a merchant, but I was able to put up 30 pieces of silver coins and get them to give up for 2.3 million astols.

Rhina looks surprised by my actions, but she hasn't asked me anything about my escort duties. I'm sorry, I'll explain someday...

It's all over the city, so I pull a chain tied to my collar, take Mr. Elf, who looks confused, into the shadow of an unpopular building.

Offering a skewer of meat bought along the way, Mr. Elf was wary at first, but when he recommended it twice, he received reluctantly and then began eating with great momentum.

I thought I should have bought some more, but the elf, who quickly ate the skewer, bears mostly.

"Thank you for your patience..."

... I know very well that I wasn't treated like a rock anymore. Tell her not to care and let her stand up and introduce herself.

"I'm Yoichi, this is my sister Kaori, and the other is Rhina, the escort. What's your name?

"... until now it was called 'Hey Slave'"

Ooh, let me give you a name, uncle of the butcher.

"Original name or not?

- Lena and I were called.

The name I saw in the appraisal was' Lena Ant ', but speaking of which, Lynne was also' Ringnace ', wasn't she? Is elves also a habit of abbreviating names?

"Well, nice to meet you, Lena. By the way, I'd like to ask you one thing, don't you notice the 100 + year old elf?

"... I'm sorry, I don't know"

Oh, my eyes swam for a moment now.

I was hoping I could secure something else, but he's on alert. I don't know if I can do it.

Stop asking, pull the chain and head to the woods.

Break up with Rhina by way of example and rendezvous with Lynne. Unchain Mr. Lena and give Lynne the collar screw that my uncle at the butcher gave me.

"Lynne, this guy is Lena, but take him to the forest stronghold. So I had Lena work in an environment where she could do a good job, and Lynne came back here again. How many days does it take?

To my inquiry, Lynne stares at Mr. Lena.

"10 days back and forth, I don't know what this guy's stunt is, but I was wondering if I could get the environment ready in a few days"

That's the forest people. Much faster than when we accompanied him.

"See you here in 15 days. Look at the timing of Lena's collar screw and give it to her. I'd like you to be one of them if possible, but if they say I really don't like it, I don't care if you let me go. Oh, and give him a proper meal."

"I understand. I'll certainly keep it for you."

He deposited the grumpy Mr. Lena with Lynne, who instead gave him Fran's flowers and ingredients for the fragrance weave that Lynne had collected over the past few days.

Lena calls out on our backs trying to get back into the city.

"Um! I have an elf over 100 years old in a blacksmith who stopped on two front streets from the store where I was. I'm from the same village as I am, save her too!

"- Roger that! Lynne, let's go. Wait a minute. 'Cause I'm bringing another one!

I'm glad you trusted me. I'll leave my stuff and go back to the city.

I searched for a blacksmith and bought Mr. Elf, who had been blown away, for 2 million astols.

Try the appraisal.

Celestina Elf, 107. Skill: Wood Processing LV5 Condition: Fatigue (Medium) Fasting (Weak) Status: Slave

That. A carpenter's staff for the memorial!

As a result of my introduction, I will call myself Mr. Ceres, and I will return to the woods and hand him over to Lynne. Lena and I were hugging each other and weeping that she was from the same village.

Elves over 100 for Mr. Ceres as well. Or under 100 years old, so I asked if the elves from the same village had any idea, but unfortunately they didn't.

Well, let's just try to be good if they find us both.

Drop off the three Linnes heading to the forest stronghold and head back to the stronghold within the city walls as it is already getting dark. Let's go redeem Fran's flowers for Lynne later.

"Don't ask me anything now because I'll talk to you next year" was accepted by Rhina, who always had a strange look on her face.

Now, let's finish what we want to do in the city by the time Lynne gets back. Hopefully we'll find some more company too......
