The surviving of them was sealed. I could have seen it.

But he also had questions.

"Who sealed you up?"

Ensir is old enough to honor even Hastokas, or has the power to match them. Such an existence is sealed in the form of a sword.

"And why is it that only the Swordmaster can hear you?”

The cells of the Ensir are the cells of the sword. It means it's somehow related to the sword, but it doesn't make sense either.

"If you really were a prehuman being, you should have nothing to do with the sword.”

[Me, too] I don't know.]

Nsir murmured despondently. There were so many things I couldn't tell.

All I can think of is useless memories, and the right ones are foggy. What the hell am I? Why do I know the sword?]

It was a question that he could not answer on his own question. After a moment of silence, Asher shook her head.

"It'll work out somehow."

Okay, I'll think about it later.

"You won't kill me after you find your memory."

[No way...].]

The end of the story was blurred. He himself seemed unsure.

Maybe, it'll be all right.]

"Should I?"

Asher left the forest and returned to the Orcs. The fallen orcs were no longer visible, as the elves moved them all.

"Have you come?"

Oak Road was sitting on a rock waiting for him.

"Oaks."

"The elves moved us to our land. Now they're taking care of Rossellini."

"There's no problem.”

The immediate problem is over. What we have to do now is what we have to come."

The Orc Lord, who pulled himself up, walked in.

"We need to talk."

***

Pateless was waiting in the tent along the Oak Road. She nodded her head at the sight of the two who came in.

"You're here."

"Yes."

Oak Road sat on the chair.

"Sit down."

Oak Lord, who naturally guided Asher to the top, put his hands together.

"The Orcs were liberated. We're free now."

It's a recovery period now, but after a week or two, the Orcs will return to normal.

I would like to express my gratitude, which is hard to express with my mouth. And now, I'll ask you what I couldn't ask."

Oak Road's eyes rolled quietly.

"Who put Hastoka in our Orcs, brother? You would know."

"You're not making a guess?”

"…so is it."

Quick.

The table in Rod's hand broke. He spat out roughly.

"The devil. The goddamned lord of the horse tried to destroy us.”

“…….”

Pateless closed her eyes. She also nearly collapsed the forest because of the mutated orcs.

"Dwarf also broke them down.”

"Where did the Maids attack them?"

"The Dwarf monarch blew himself up. In the aftermath, their holy ground turned into a field of blunder.”

"Oak is a proud warrior, and Elf is the owner of the forest. Dwarf is the maker of all the bottles."

Orcrod said softly. It was a phrase that tells the characteristics of the three tribes that have been handed down since ancient times. He muttered to write.

"Now it's all an old story.”

Dwarf is gone and Orcs are running wild. The elves were unaffected, but just by looking at the black forest situation, neither were they.

"Well, what are you going to do now?"

When Asher asked, Orcrod gave his fist a boost.

"…the other Orcs are still under the control of Hastoka."

"You're the only ones I kicked out."

"I want to free them."

said Oak Road with rough eyes. Asher nodded.

"Whatever you want."

Oak's confrontation with Ma means that the king's influence decreases, which is not bad for him.

"You won't need my help this time.”

"What does that mean?"

"Hastoka is a contracted creature that comes down to the world. They're not like monsters."

It can only be enforced under certain conditions, as it is parasitic without a proper body. One condition was that only one species could be parasitic.

"Maybe this is a battle between Orcs and Elves."

It was almost certain that the elf was the first to change and fight.

"But you're not fighting.”

"Thanks to you.”

"Anyway, the terms of the contract are broken. The conditions for the precipitation have not been met.”

"Well."

Orcrod tilted his head to make sure he didn't understand.

"If you're telling the truth, aren't you saying that there can't be any hastokas in the other orcs?"

"They're already parasitic. We can't exist in this world without being parasitic."

“…….”

"So you don't have to worry about the aftermath like now. They'll disappear as soon as they're separated.”

"Oh, that's the sound."

Understandably, Oak Road nodded.

"That's a relief. I've already received enough of your kindness, and I can't trouble you any more."

"I'll need purple powder, but I can make it for you. It's not that hard work, so I'll make you plenty."

"Thank you very much. I didn't expect to get this kind of favor from other people.”

Oak Road laughed bitterly. Pateless, who was listening quietly, opened his mouth quietly.

"Will it really be okay?"

"What do you mean all of a sudden? Elf."

"It means that the hastokas carried by the Orcs didn't disappear. And now Hastoka realized that he could be kicked out. If he turns the Orcs off in a different way....”

Ochrod's face was also stiffened by Petris' words. She said with a sigh.

"We don't know how the crisis is going to change. We have to be prepared for him."

"That's not going to happen."

Asher dismissed the remark. Pateless was so sure that he was surprised and shut up.

"I'm sure. Orcs will be the same."

Oak Road groaned.

It`s a dangerous idea if you think that being kicked out doesn`t affect you. As his existence itself is this type, what's going on?.”

"You're wrong again."

“…….”

Oak Road's pupils were agitated. Asher spoke calmly.

"It would be possible to beat."

Orcs could have gone all crazy.

"Then…."

"But I won't.”

Hastoka said as he left. The loser of the game shouldn't stick ugly.

"He failed the terms of the contract. Now, Beat doesn't do anything without formality."

"I can't believe his formality....”

"It would be more reliable than being on the ground. It's hard to understand the stubbornness of the old."

Sometimes it is more important to be stubborn than my life, and I don't regret it even if I lose my life.

"No problem."

"In that case.”

Pateless leaned down gently.

"So there's no problem.”

"It doesn't take a day or two."

Liberate all Orcs. It was something to be short for years, but Oak Lord laughed.

"Let's say it's a lifetime of homework. I won't be bored for the rest of my life.”

"I'll help you, too. The liberation of the Orcs also leads to the freedom of the Elves."

"Do as you please. Then human. It's your turn to talk.”

Oak Road's eyes were on Asher.

"You said there was a price. What do you want?"

"Not much."

"Well…"

At Asher's words, Petrice blurted the end of the horse. Asher ignored and continued.

"What are you going to do after that?”

Isn`t it far after liberation? I haven't got anything right yet, but I'm not going to stay put."

Oak Road's eyes blazed.

"I'll have to make him regret it."

"That's my price."

He didn't receive anything material from Oak. What will he get from the half-worn tribe? What he wanted was one thing.

"Eastern conditions aren't so good either.

"…no way."

The oak road frown.

"The guards in the North are gone.”

"…the giants have left?”

"Yes."

Asher answered Petrice's alarmed question.

"Now the east and the north are no longer separate."

The boundaries that used to divide the world are now meaningless.

"Why don't you leave where you've been for decades and step into another place?"

***

"I'm sorry."

Arna bowed herself to apologize. Oh Mo-han laughed and waved.

"That's enough. What can I do about my big body?"

"You've come a long way, and I have no choice but to treat you like this.”

There was no building in the Empire to accommodate the Giant. The giants were eventually forced to move to nearby mountains outside the empire.

"Who's the kid behind you?"

Leica, half hidden behind Arena, bowed her head.

"I know him."

"Do you?"

Oh Mo-han smiled happily.

"I was worried when I heard that I grew up in the midst of human beings with my E.L.F.'s body, but I guess there's no problem. I have a human brother."

"He was considerate of many things."

"He was careless and took good care of me. I'm relieved to see you're well-grown."

"It's already been decades."

When Asher visited the giant village, he sometimes brought Arna with him. I got to know Omohan and Arena through that time.

"It's been a long time."

Oh Mo-han smiled bitterly.

"But I'm glad you've got it together. When I came here to deliver his obituary, he looked like he was in danger."

"…it was a nuisance."

"What. Done. What's past is meaningless."

Omohan stuck her hips to the ground. The earth was as excited as if it had been an earthquake.

"How long does it take?”

"I'm sorry, I'm confused in the Empire... I don't think it's that short.”

The giant's visit was the first of its kind in human history. Furthermore, not one, but the whole tribe arrived.

The capital could collapse with just one jump, and dozens of giants. As a result, the leaders of the Empire were still in a sleep-sleep.

Oh Mo-han chuckled.

"Tell him not to worry. We, cursed, have no intention of confronting humans. Most of all, I've come to his invitation, but if I run wild, his honor will be lost. I don't intend to."

"Excuse me."

Laika, who was quiet in the back, opened her mouth.

"The. Oh Mo-han?"

"Sing whatever you want.”

"Do you know Asher?”

"Ho. Are you curious about him?”

Omohan put her face in Leica. In a moment of oppression, Leica grabbed the sword handle and lowered her posture. Oh Mo-han admired the quick response.

"That's great. I can't guarantee it.”

"I've had similar experiences."

Laika said jokingly, but the hard-fisted eyes couldn't help it.

'…what is this?'

She was inwardly alarmed. When I saw Lupa Aru, it was just so. He was strong, hiding something, but he seemed to be able to deal with it.

However, Oh Mo Han was differently. The whole body sounded a frantic alarm.

Arna blocked the two.

"You play too much."

"Yeah, yeah. I'm sorry."

Oh Mo-han pulled back again. Reika, who was relieved of the pressure, took a small breath.

"Yes, little man. What are you curious about?"

"…do you know about him?"

"I know."

"Well, really?"

Arna asked back unknowingly. Unexpectedly, Oh Mo-han frowned slightly.

"Don't you know?"

"Yes…."

"Huh, by the way, I can't believe I didn't even tell you. That's too much of a friend."

It was the moment when Arna was about to ask Oh Mo-han, who speaks in a friendly way. A pigeon flew in before she asked.

in a flap

"…that's the answer from the Empire."

The only bird that did not escape under the pressure of the giant was a bird tamed by man. She solved the letter on the leg of a pigeon sitting on my arm.

"Hmm? Didn't you have something to ask?"

"I'll ask you later. First of all, the mission of the Empire comes first."

When she opened the letter, the magic pattern on it shone. Watching it quietly, she closed the letter.

"What is written?"

"Let me ask you a question from the point of view of the Empire."

Arna looked up at Omohan as the captain of the guard.

"What is the purpose of your visit to the Empire? I will make a judgment in the Empire accordingly."

The priority is to entrust it to the Empire. That's not all."

Oh Mo-han said with subdued eyes.

"I came here to warn humans."
