When I said "I absolutely want the gift ball", Mr. Knock simply asked me to go look for it. I was prepared to react "I can't use it anyway."
But when I heard "where did you hide it?", I changed my expression.
"Oh, you, not to mention hiding it in the eggs of the early summer birds!? What are you thinking!
Hy!
Punta ran away to the corner of the cabin with her head in her arms.
"Don't run away! I told you to stay away from that--"
"Wait a minute."
Hold down Knock, who has the momentum to beat him.
"Early summer birds... what do you mean? I've never heard of it."
…………
I was a knocker with an angry face, but he explained.
I will not stop if I still go, but with the premise that.
It could be dangerous. But I concluded that we should take the risk of getting the Demarcation Pact.
Mr. Knock told me about all the dangers, but I was able to decide that there was no problem if I didn't hit him badly.
I wanted to confirm the ability of the special talent ball, which exceeds 8 stars and contains the word "covenant".
Mr. Knock doesn't know I have 16 skill holders.
"... how drunk."
and stunned,
"The Guard is at liberty to go, but it is hard to forgive you to take Hielf with you."
said.
That sentiment was correct, and if I had to take Asha, I might not have been able to get Punta's help in the first place, so I decided to persuade Asha to go with Punta.
The time is noon.
I left the dark elf settlement with Mr. Punta. [M] Asha looked worried on the tree, but the Dark Elves would not harm Asha. I want you to wait with confidence.
"You... you're a strange person. I heard it was so dangerous that I wanted to go to the bird's nest in the early summer...."
"Even though it's a nest, it's just an egg, right? And in fact, Punta will be back safely."
"That's true, but..."
"Hey, is that the early summer bird?
Walk through a land where dead trees grow sparsely. There are many trees around here that are less nutritious or dead, but on the other hand, there were trees that took care of less nutrients and survived somehow.
Nature is tempting.
I pointed to two birds that looked beyond those branches. [M] Small shadows line the sky.
"You don't look like yourself... was it a herd?
"No, just two."
"Well then, it's a late summer bird (bangkacho). Blue late summer birds, red early summer birds cheating."
The silhouette is exactly the same, but there are two different types of birds: blue and red.
No, maybe it's not two types. Is it the same type of bird?
Late summer birds, I hear, set only one lifetime connection, live side by side with two, and nest and lay eggs just like normal birds.
Conversely, early summer birds form a herd where they lay large numbers of eggs in association with many heterosexuals.
I don't know which eggs are whose children, so I can do things like "egg storage".
"It's around here." Egg storage area "
I walked for two hours —— I had a meal on the way, so I didn't go much further.
You're pretty close to the settlement.
"If six months pass before the eggs can fly again, the 'egg dump' will be abandoned... and everyone in the settlement will stay away."
I see.
The place was just east of the Holy King's City. Located in the hemisphere of the mountain, the recessed land was surrounded by large trees. Surrounded by grass and bad prospects.
"Wow... really?"
I heard such a voice unexpectedly. [M]
It's odd to say "egg storage place". Rather, there are no other words.
There were a few milky white eggs there that were not enough for 100.
Some are placed directly on the ground, stowed, collapsed, and cracked.
(When this grows up, it's going to be really big.....)
The blue-summer bird that was visible earlier felt no threat because it was at a considerable distance.
"Be careful. If you stimulate a living (...) egg, the herd will fly."
That was what Mr. Knock said about "danger".
It seems that early summer birds will be attacked by a herd if they want to hurt or break eggs after laying them.
I don't know how you're looking at the condition of the eggs.
Even if he escapes, he will follow him to the end of the earth.
Once in the past, hungry dark elves broke to bring back eggs and were chased by a swarm of early summer birds. With the herd coming to the settlement, the dark elves fled in the direction of the settlement - the dark elves never returned.
"Did you hide it here?"
"Hey... when the eggs come back, I wonder if I should come back and get them slowly..."
"But it's a useless gift, isn't it?
"It's beautiful if you look at it."
I see... I wonder if it can be used for objects in the room. It looks like indirect lighting with bad taste.
"Besides, about half of the eggs don't contain any contents. I think the female early summer bird is making an appeal by laying karapo eggs to attract the attention of males."
Ha.
"Isn't it amazing? Bird Love Rush"
"Hah...."
You're alive all of a sudden.
Punta, you must have a mysterious hobby that no one else understands... early summer bird research.
Maybe you hid your gift balls here and you felt like you were going to experiment. I wonder what happens after the stone melts when I bury it in the snow.
If you don't, you won't get close to where you know it's dangerous.
"So, in which shell did you hide the gift ball?
"Ah, yes. It's that way."
As he said, he approached the "egg storage area".
"The strange thing is that it's not just about laying karapo eggs, but both early summer and late summer birds have a certain percentage of each other's hinnas in their eggs. Among these hundreds of eggs is a late summer bird chick."
"I hear so. For the survival of the species."
Flexible in responding to changes in the environment by providing diversity.
The evolution of life.
"Yes! So the birds in the early summer--"
"Um, Punta. I already have eggs in front of me."
We reached out to the point where we could touch the egg in front of us.
Looking at this, it looks like the eggs sold at the supermarket have grown as they are... It was said that there were karapo eggs, but as far as [Mora Magnificent] could see, they all had the same "egg" reaction. I don't know just by looking at it.
"Ah, well... what I found was an incredibly beautiful cracked shell with a carapace inside. So if you put it back on, it'll stick tightly."
"Yes, which one?
"Er...."
Punta's gaze wandered.

"... Mr. Punta?

Punta, who saw me, had a charming smile and cold sweat.
"Eh, eheheh... I don't know which one it is anymore..."
