Awkward silence dominates the Alliance.
Durahan, an armour without a neck, tries to find a helmet that rolls onto the floor by hand while confused.
I'm sure they're not taking Tamer with them, but they're supposed to be alert to monsters that have never appeared here before, but when they see something like this, the tight air spreads.
"What the hell is that?"
"Hmm, Durahan should not have been identified in this kingdom, but where did it spring from?"
Both Rick and Serra are stunned by Durahan's actions.
I looked like Durahan, who was desperately looking for a helmet on the floor, could not leave it somehow. [M]
"Hey, I'm coming."
"Huh? Are you going to Durahan's?"
"Yes"
When I nodded to Sella's words, Shifu, who had deformed into a hat, jumped onto my shoulder.
"Be careful. Lime, stand ready to protect Kite at all times."
"Cu!"
While seeing Lime in a cage on my right arm, I approached Durahan as slowly as I could.
Aren't the adventurers around you trying to get too close? They're looking at me as I approach Durahan.
Or is he Tamer's....
It's a decent Tamer's kid....
Is he going to do it?
Pick up a helmet that is lying on the floor while not listening to whispers.
The contents (...) are not contained.
It's just a cavity, I don't know how many years ago, but I can only tell that it's a substitute for the extraordinary season.
With it in my arms, I walk towards Durahan.
"Um, this...."
!
I'll try to offer it as slowly as possible.
Durahan then stretched out his fearful hand, distracting his chest from looking alternately at my face and the helmet at hand.
……
Durahan's stretched hand reaches his helmet as everyone on the spot sips and watches.
Oh!
Mysterious cheer.
Regardless, Durahan, who had a slip and a helmet in his hand, puts it back where it was.
Afterwards, he stood up with an atmosphere that would not allow him to feel the fine dust, such as the appearance just now, and offered his respects.
Durahan took my hand and waved with joy. [M]
I was surprised that you suddenly grabbed my hand, but...
"No, you know...."
?
Head, back and forth, right?
!?
The orientation of the head was reverse.
Durahan, trying to fix his head in a hurry, is he about to drop a helmet he took off? Looking at me, I relieve the tension I've been feeling so far and relax my shoulders. [M]
Tell the adventurers who are listening to us that it is not harmful.
You don't look like a bad monster, do you?
"Hmm, but where did it get mixed up..."
I don't think Shif will be able to consider it.
Looking nearby, the armor is cracked everywhere, and the surface is dented as if it had been hit by some strong force.
"Durahan. It's unusual."
Wow!
Sella was just next to me asking about Durahan.
She is observing Durahan's armor with curious eyes.
"Hmm, this is the armor of the Hendir Kingdom. It's also old... until about two generations ago."
You're very knowledgeable.
"I don't think so. It's just a hobby to fish for monster history."
Aren't you Dr. Monster the earliest you could get there?
I have a great enthusiasm in the first place.
"Hmm? This is quite an advanced knight's armor.... yes, I recognize him, but I don't know where he belonged... I have to look closer...."
That said, Sella approached Durahan without a sound.
Did you finally notice that? Durahan, with his head firmly attached, trembled and moved to hide on my back.
"Whoa... Sera-san, I'm scared..."
"Haha, I'm sorry. I'm sure it's harmless, but I don't look lost. Well... why did you come here?"
Sella asks Durahan as she peeks behind me.
In contrast, Durahan only shook his head sideways after a brief tour.
"Missing memory? In other words, I nod that it is not Durahan who is born in this world with hatred. If you think you've arrived at this place with your feet in the unexpected kingdom of life, then the Tsujitsu suits you.... Hmm"
Sera-san?
Sera murmurs something with her hands on her chin and a smile.
Looking slightly at the state, she turned to me. [M]
"Let's find out a little about Durahan."
"Examine it....."
"It's no wonder that wild monsters enter the country. This could be a bad omen, and we may have to proceed with caution.... after that Demon King army raid."
That's right.
Even if not, we should take precautions to prevent it.
"Can I leave Durahan's surveillance to you?"
Eh, am I?
"It's Tamer's business to get along with monsters. More than I'm afraid of, you have to see Durahan. Or should I put him in a cage and watch him?"
Look behind Durahan.
I don't see any weapons.
The armor is worn out, and it seems fragile enough to collapse with a little impact.
... I didn't do anything wrong, but I don't want to be locked up.
"Sif, you got it?"
"Mmm, I don't know what I'm talking about... but as far as I can tell, it's not so much a threat. But when it comes to trouble... you know?"
"... of course."
If anything happens in this kingdom that hurts people, I will handle it responsibly.
... no, let's check Durahan's intentions before we make up our minds, maybe we want to go back where we left off.
"Well, I'm supposed to be watching you... but what do you think?"
I thought you'd react aggressively, but Durahan shook his head.
Apparently, that's fine.
Rather, it's armor that's bigger than my height, but I think I'm dealing with a lost puppy... Oh, I've never met a lost puppy.
●
Afterwards, after explaining the situation to the Guild leader, Berse, I took the lost Durahan back to a hotel run by Merck.
I'm not trying to be a magician, but Durahan is under surveillance.
I thought I should be able to monitor it closest, but I took it with a fairly easy feeling -
Go back to where you were.
"Sonna!?"
Merck, who was royal at the front door, said that when he saw Durahan.
I complain with a desperate look, hiding Durahan sitting down with his back down.
"But I don't know where she's going to go!"
"I'm going to leave it somewhere. It's obviously too small for your room. I wonder why you're not a magician and you're bringing monsters."
"I can't hear a sound..."
Sif roars at Merck's argument.
Merck pointed at Durahan, looking down at him in the apron with great eyesight.
It's probably the armor of the Senior Knights. Why should we have monsters in their armor? "
"Is that so!?"
"... heh, did I say something I didn't want..."
Armor of the missing...!?
As for Merck, who knew her face for some reason, she sighed as if she had given up.
"Ha, I'll get you another room. Throw it in there. However, you'll pay the rent for the two rooms."
"Ah, thank you!"
I'm glad after the money came in.
I can rent two rooms easily now.
In the meantime, I don't have to worry about being out there, so the door behind me opens when I'm reassured.
"I'm home."
"Ah, Reefa, welcome back."
Looks like Rifa's back from the castle, too.
To welcome her, she turned to the front door and at the same time - she stopped breathing.
After all, Rifa had a thin, gold-haired woman she didn't recognize.
However, I knew that the ears were different from ordinary people and that they were beautiful even though they were weak.
"... Reefa, who's behind this?"
"Got it."
"No, you picked it up... but you're not an elf..."
"I was hungry and collapsed."
I don't understand the situation at all...!
Unexpectedly, he turned to Merck for help.
Merck also looked at Rifa's unexpected behavior, but immediately coughed up his face.
"... go back to where you were."
"Sonna!?"
Oddly enough, it was the same as what I was told first. [M]
