Ryuugoroshi no Sugosuhibi

"Is this okay? Oh, I'm so sorry."

Kohok is floating at a height that reaches the clouds and tries to soak up sweat that isn't even flowing.

I work very attentively and have tremendous mental fatigue. If I was at all alarmed, I was doing something that was likely to spread the problem not only to my own life, but to God as a whole. This was not arbitrary. I won't do this arbitrarily, and I don't want to.

"Was the destination Calibarette? It's a long way from here."

Far below the eyes of Kohok lies the Ezembian continent.

"After this, the town is damaged, and that's when Koske informs me. It's a little complicated, but you can't miss the opportunity."

Don't feel bad about it. Someone's in there, and Kohok metastasizes.

There are only clouds and winds on the spot, and the distortions that Korhock has painstakingly carried without touching them are flushed into the wind.

The distortion had been decided to fall into a town in Calibarette.

When Yusuke went to Rickart's store, the Merrills kept a message from Galeon. The message was three days ago, and if you hear it, you need to hurry up and come to the guild.

Having run an errand for the store quickly, Kosuke heads to the guild and talks to the receptionist as usual. Today's reception is Tione, to whom I refer when I disguise myself as Zion.

"Hi, I just got a message from the guild chief to come right away"

"Hello, Mr. Watase. I'm asking you to let me through as soon as you get here. Go to the back."

It's been a long time since I started going through this guild, and I can remember my face. If I had seen the guild chief many times, it would have sparked my interest, and was it a factor that I could remember bringing Galeon's plug in to the guild staff?

While greeting a different official, he knocks and then enters the Guild Chief's office.

"I've been waiting for you."

When Yusuke sees him come in, he interrupts his paperwork and puts his pen down.

"Hello. Something sudden?

"Oh, you know Calibarette, don't you?

"It's a country with a singing princess, isn't it? Someone I know is from there."

"I hear the guild there is getting a call from the state, calling you. Normally, I would say no, but there's also a message from the princess that she wouldn't be able to say no if she asked."

Because of this message, Galeon also left a message at the store.

"Surely if Master Fleur asks me, I can't say no. And it's important that you come from the country?

"I don't know the details, but they say one town is doing something about it. And I'm talking about a young lady named Weale."

Yusuke's movements stop for a moment. Calling Wiale would have been associated with eighty-nine distortions. Galeon coughs and draws attention to Kosuke, who wonders if it happens occasionally, or if it is the effect of a previous battle.

If you want to talk, I'll let you know first.

"Please. I've been to Calibarette, so please tell me it's transferable and I'll be there soon."

"Okay. Already got a request from this guild?

"What's in it?

"There's something called Survide Ore? This can be a magical mediator of walking on water, allowing underwater breathing, or causing a big vortex, but I don't know who did it, but the buy-in is happening and I'm running out of it. Fortunately, I want Calibarette to be bought in tonnes, one of Survide's regions. I can handle this if you give this envelope to the royal family as far as gold is concerned. You'll have it ready, too, bring it back with a metastasis."

"Okay."

The envelope given to Galeon is sealed with wax, and the wax is stamped with some kind of crest. I don't know about Kosuke, but it's the family crest of the Count's house in this country. This Count family has a territory bordered by the coast and grows specialities in the sea. It uses the magic of underwater breathing to harvest it.

Yusuke nostalgics the envelope he receives and transfers it directly from here to the dripot to the basement where he is doing his research.

Ellis and Wiale stop their hands and turn their faces to Yusuke, who came in.

"What can I do for you?

"I hear there's been an incident in Calibarette about distortion. So through the guild, the country asked me to come to Wiale with you."

"From the country? The princess over there hears the circumstances from God, and you know it's best to leave them to Wiale when it comes to distortion. Speaking of which, you also had resistance to distortion in the title of False God Killer. Can you handle just Yusuke?"

Sasuke looks like she just realized that some of those things were there. I don't normally use it, so I can't immediately notice it.

I don't know Fleur about fake god killing, so it would be more reassuring to take Wiale.

"Master Fleur takes care of me and I can't say no. I want Wiale to come with me."

"Okay."

"What about Mr. Ellis?

Sometimes it's good to go away.

Ellis nodded, showing a slight gesture of thinking. Always in the basement, I thought it was not a bad idea to accompany you with a change of mood.

I thought Yusuke and I were traveling together. Wiale sighs in her heart alone.

No one knows if Ellis nodded to his companion to stop him.

We all decide to go out, tell Shyte that we have a sudden job in, and we go back home.

Getting ready to get dressed, etc., Kosuke talks to Mitaram and Korhok, who thought it would be a little far to Calibarette.

"That, I haven't heard back"

"Hmm? Were you going to ask the gods for a transfer?

"Yes, but well, does this happen sometimes? You can go via Calhoud and transfer on your own."

"I'll go to Calhoud."

"Please, I'll transfer from there."

To Ellis, ready for the metastasis, Yusuke and Wiale touch to transfer to the continent of Calhoud.

Fly to the appropriate plain where you previously traveled by carriage and transfer from there to Calibarette. We have arrived in a flat area far enough away from the King's capital. I can see the capital building in the distance.

"It would be convenient to have two people who can travel long distances."

Wiale speaks out that she was impressed by the fact that she previously traveled less than an hour, a distance that took time to travel on a monthly basis. And I look rarely at the first time Calibarette.

The three of them decided to take the inn for now, but without taking it, they head to the Adventurer's Guild, as they may soon move to solve the problem.

Speaking to the receptionist, an official is called, and the official is advised to give him a letter of introduction and escort him to the castle.

Yusuke, out of the guild, tries to advance to the castle, and Ellis can stop him.

"I decide not to go, but to crush my spare time in those coffee shops there. Because they didn't call me."

"I guess I'll go that way, too. I'm used to seeing royalty, but I don't want to take the initiative."

Sometimes Enesia metastasizes without even touching it, and no, but we get used to it.

"I think Mr. Ellis would be nice, but shouldn't Weale go?

With her index finger against her jaw, Ellis opens her mouth a little thinking.

"You may not have to go. We don't need Wiale in the castle. Just go and listen. That should be enough for Koske alone."

I know it's safe, but there's an idea that you don't want anyone associated with distortion entering the castle, but I didn't say that.

It's a decision that sometimes it hurts Wiale without darkness.

"Well, I'll go alone."

We'll find out, we'll head to the castle.

I go to the castle of Calibarette, which has been a long time, and pass the references from the guild to the gatekeeper. Seems to have been contacted and passed through the castle without being inspected for luggage. Instead of being guided to the viewing room, it was one of the rooms. So fifteen minutes to wait for the maid to serve tea and sweets. Fleur came in. Previously, the escort came into the room with me, but I'm keeping him waiting outside the room today. We can't let them hear about the use of distortion, we can't let them in.

Fleur is twenty-five, but he hasn't married yet. In this world, you will be rewarded, but I do not care for myself, and I care more about my fathers and ministers. Marriage stories with neighbouring countries have disappeared. Sometimes it was Shayt's job to negotiate well, but he was able to connect with countries like Honeysuke and Kouma through Kosuke, and he showed hard work in diplomacy and succeeded in increasing his national power. The fact that Fleur's performance comforted and made a better impression on people in other countries would also be part of the increase in national power.

"Long time no see"

"Yes, it's been a while"

Standing up from his chair, Fleur returns his greetings with a grin to Kosuke, who thanked him. I don't mean to move on to the chat as it is, but I squeeze my expression and look at Kosuke. It's a waste of time to chat.

"Being here means you can take the request, okay?

"Yes."

"Thank you. Then we'll talk about the situation quickly. I was contacted more than ten days ago by a town in the southwest called Ahos. I need to get tired of all the townspeople. I didn't know what it was about, but they also sent me more information, so I read it and I found out that they kept the word."

Fleur agrees that the reaction would be natural to Kosuke on the face that he is not sure. When I first heard it, I didn't know what it meant.

"If you move, you consume strength, you rest a little, you eat a meal, you recover when you sleep, right? They've been gone since there was such a recovery. No, you have a little bit of a saying that it's gone. If you eat, your hunger will be filled. Sleep well when you go to sleep. But I can't get tired. It means that my days go on. Even if your health recovers from this condition, it will decrease faster and your upper health limit itself will decrease."

Here I will cut the explanation once and look at Kosuke to see if I understand it. I don't know, so I keep going.

"They say that such a phenomenon is happening only in town, and when you get out of town and rest, you can take away fatigue. But not being able to get into town was a problem, as were the dead for the less able-bodied old and sick. We now move it to the surrounding villages and so on, and we also have state support, but it can't stay that way all the time. You can't stay in town long enough to investigate, and the investigation is progressing poorly. I thought these strange things would be distortion-related, and I was contacted by Master Seminroos saying that he was right, and that if you knew him, you could do something about it."

"What we're asking for is an early resolution. It's okay to put the town back together, right?

"Yeah, there's a national soldier near town. I'll give you a letter of reference so you can stay there until the investigation is resolved."

"Should I have food or something?

"I let you have enough, and I carry it regularly, so that kind of care is useless. Do your utmost to solve it."

"Okay. I'll be leaving soon."

"Sorry for the rush, please"

I really hurry when I think of the people in town. I nodded that Kosuke could see that, so I left it to him.

Fleur gives Yusuke the reference he had. Receive it and hand over a letter about Survide Ore. Kosuke, who thanked him, left the room.

Fleur, who read the letter, asks for immediate arrangements.

In the coffee shop where we meet, there are two people eating Mont Blanc or cheesecake.

The expression is subtle. It's delicious, but it also seemed like a loss that I paid for it because Kosuke could make it better.

"It's delicious."

"Oh, that's what Koske makes for me every day, and you've got a fat tongue"

"You feel like you've been grabbed in the stomach and fed"

"I also feel like I've had one less pleasure. It's not like I don't like to eat different flavors every once in a while. You've had some unexpected harm. Is it weird that it's harmful?"

Having found the two, Kosuke enters the store, sits next to Wiale and orders the right tea.

"It seemed like something was bothering you, but something troubling happened to you?

"No, it's nothing. What was that all about?

Ellis asks as she pokes the cheesecake.

"It was a distortion. It's like a town shutting down its functions."

"Like when I was?

"I wonder if it's worse than that. There are dead people out there, and I can't stay in town. What can be said is that you are free to come and go. I couldn't get out without losing my sanity then. You think the townspeople are going to a village now? I hear there's soldiers by the town."

I'm going to tell you exactly what's going on.

"Can you keep us harmless?

"Maybe I can, but when I do, I don't know where the distortion is unless I concentrate on you and get close enough, okay?

"Can't you guess the general direction from the outside?

"They're covering the whole city, so I think the signs are dispersed. I don't know for sure unless you actually go, but I think you should think it's hard."

"Is there some kind of search policy?

"You should think about it from there because it often has a specific effect on a particular subject. I mean, I can't get tired this time..."

You can't think of it. Words stop.

"When Wiale, everyone went crazy, didn't they? The traits didn't come out the way they were, so there's a chance they might be a little different this time."

"Then the original characteristics are. Tired easily. Use health. I get sick. I don't know. Is it likely that things are stuck with the fact that the anomalies continue to occur even without people?"

"It's easy to process, but it's going to be hard to find. If there's an organism that moves in a town where there's no one, it's a distortion. I need to be prepared to walk around town at worst."

Thanks to Wiale, you'll find it. Because the soldiers walked around town tired with no tips.

"I heard where the town is, and fly that way? Or are we taking an inn today?

"Fly away and you'll have magic. If you can get some rest over there, you can fly away."

"I got a letter of introduction, so I don't think they'll let me get in the way."

"While we're off today, maybe we should ask what's going on in town, where the building is located,"

"So you're leaving now?

Listen as Wiale stabs Mont Blanc's end in the fork.

Ellis nodded and ate the cheesecake exactly. Again, it doesn't taste bad, but when I get home, I think about getting a cheesecake made.

Pay, the three of them leave the store, they're outside the city.

"It's a seven-day walk southwest. Which one of you carries Weale?

"You're a powerful man."

Keisuke and Ellis, carrying Wiale, use flying magic and fly southwest. I did some magic again, and it didn't take me five hours to get to town like that.

There are several tents lined up outside the town, and there are no figures in the town in the distance. Some pedestrian carriages I was thinking of stopping by this town. There were fields in the north around the town, and tree greenery was visible in the south. There are people working there.

After seeing them, land on the flat a little further from the tent.

The soldiers who noticed the three of them come closer.

"What can I do for you in this town? I am currently off-limits. I don't even know when I'll be able to get in."

"I am an adventurer commissioned by the state. This will be the reference. Please confirm."

Yusuke gives the soldier the references he gets. When I saw the seal engraved on that seal, I decided to take the three of them, under the person responsible, that the soldiers who found out they belonged to the royal family could not determine for themselves.

Soldiers lead the way and enter one of the tents.

"Captain, an adventurer seconded by the country has brought a letter of introduction. Please confirm."

"Good luck, get back to work"

"Ha."

The soldier who has guided me leaves the tent when he salutes the three of them.

The forty past man, called captain, opens the references he receives and reads inside. Something slightly bitter appeared on his expression.

"That's an introduction from the princess. I did check. It says you're used to these things, is that true?

"You've solved several distortion-related cases."

Even so, counting with both hands is enough. That would be too much before the distortions were scattered.

"Experienced? To be honest, we want to solve our own country, but we want to do something about it. Tired as if traveling through an extremely cold snowy mountain or burning desert, losing strength fast"

"Can't you tell me how active you were"

To Ellis' hard tone, the captain nodded, although he looked strange.

"An hour and a little bit was the limit. I didn't think there was a situation that wasn't going to recover so badly. Do you guys have any precautions?

"Because in the dungeon of leisurely crushing, I got the tools to resist distortion. Not more than three or four people."

You can't talk about distortion users, you delude me that it's a tool.

The captain gives a convincing look without suspicion. The dungeon of leisure is the territory of the gods. It is not strange that such tools are available.

"I'd like to see a map of town or something. It could be a hint of where you might be lurking."

"Okay. Uh, yeah, this is it."

To Wiale's request, take the map that the townspeople made from the documents on the table.

The town mayor's house is to the east, a grain depot and militia stuffing a little to the north of it, shops and artisan shops to the south, and residential streets from the northeast to the northwest. Large square slightly beneath the west. There is a straight boulevard from north to south, and a boulevard from west to center.

"It's a normal town from what I've seen, isn't it? Do you have a trait or something?

In Yusuke's eyes, it doesn't look like it's out of the town that I've seen so far.

"This doesn't mean you have a specialty. It's a town that sells and runs things made in the fields. What we make in the field is pumpkins, barley, cabbage, grapes, apples. The damage has not been done to the field, so I'm glad the harvest hasn't been damaged. But to take care of them, it's going to be tough going from a nearby village to a field job."

"In the meantime, can we just take a look at the town from the outside for today? I'm a little uncomfortable with magic. Just in case there's a fight, I'm worried."

"Okay. I'd prefer an early resolution if possible, but I don't know how to rush it to failure."

"Then I'm going to go around town now"

With the captain's word on his back that in the meantime the three will have a tent to sleep in, the three leave the tent.

Walk clockwise from a group of tents west of town. The southern trees were apple and vine trees.

Looking at the town, he asks the people at field work if there was anything strange other than distortion, and gathers information.

"He said there were no anomalies other than distortion."

"I shouldn't have tipped you. Weale still couldn't get a sign?

"Yeah. If the distortion had just occurred, you might have figured it out by the thickness thin, but it's full over time, so I can't."

Tomorrow's an internal investigation.

I decide to start in the west, close to the tent group, and try to get into town once. I wanted to experience how much it would drain and how well it would prevent its effects.

Stop at the edge of town so you can get out right away and move your body.

"The air was different. You were uncomfortable."

"That was clearly different. Are you sure it's a distortion?

Wiale nodded to confirm Ellis.

He also confirmed that his health had decreased enough and that his condition remained unchanged after a five-minute break.

I'll also ask Weare to change his title to Fake God Killer and see if he can completely block the impact.

"That's faintly uncomfortable. Sounds completely unprotected. But it's a lot easier than staying that way."

"Prevent Influence"

"Okay."

Wiale closes her eyes and pushes the distortion around herself, creating a normal space. The normal space shrinks when distracted, in such a state that you are constantly exerting force on your body.

The air becomes the same as outside, and Yusuke and Ellis take a breather.

"I think six hours a day is the limit when it feels like this"

"It's better than an hour for the soldiers. And he seemed to manage more than an hour on his own."

The experiment is over, the three of them leave town.

Releasing his concentration, Wiale exhales and pulls his strength out of his body. The sharply narrowed eyes also return to their original loving eyes.

The three of us back in the tent take our time. In his spare time, Kosuke helped to make dinner, and the stewed soup made with vegetables from the townspeople was well received.

At nightfall, the three of us who are in good hands enter town quickly.

I look over the square and look for strange things like under a chair or in a branch of a tree. Under the influence of distortion, plants are also faded and shriveled.

It would be helpful if there was some kind of reaction from the other side.

"If you're stuck on things, you don't have any emotions, and I guess you can't give back your reaction"

I have no intention of distortion per se. When I was in Wiale, I got emotions and reacted to people. If you focus on emotionless inorganic objects, you just keep quietly influencing them.

"It's troublesome. I wish I could use the tips as a basis."

"Right. After a little more exploration of the square, let's go to the next place."

We spent three hours exploring the square and its surroundings and decided to head next with no reaction here.

"That's quiet. I'm afraid it's too quiet."

Wiale distorts her face to a painful silence in her ear. What you hear is the sound of tree branches and signs moving in the wind. Naturally, the living sounds are not heard, nor are the small sounds made by the creatures. Birds, dogs and insects fled town to escape the effects of distortion.

"There's a different vibe to ruin, isn't there? Scary or creepy. I think it's a place I don't want to walk around alone."

I guess the smell of rotten food that I couldn't bring up is also applauding the creeps.

"Which way shall we go next"

"Shall we go north or south? If it's just a hint of something or something that makes you sick, you can't look for it. The store and the house are overflowing with goods. Can I think of other tips that are not good for you?"

"Something that's not good for your body... like poison? Cigarettes aren't good either. I don't even think the weapon is the same."

"If it's a weapon, there's gonna be a lot of murders and stuff."

Wiale says while concentrating.

"Why don't we just go south? I hear there are a lot of shops. If they come off, will they be looking around the city?

Travel to the south of town and look around the building and trails.

Without finding it for today, the Wiale limit came to an end.

"I'm tired of being careful all the time."

"Good day. Get some rest."

I work for Wiarray, who fell asleep in the tent. The two leave the tent so as not to wake up Wiale, who immediately and easily begins to take a nap.

The two go to see the captain, trying to get me to show him the map again.

"Was there any progress?

"No, I wanted you to show me the map"

I wanted to know where the pharmacists, doctors' houses, and stores dealing in cigarettes were. That's probably where the poison is. Some people may be secretly poisoned, but that's the only way to find them when you're looking for them to smudge.

Explain the properties of the distortion and the captain is convinced to spread the map to the table. I will also issue other materials and mark the doctor's house, etc. Marks were placed on residential streets and the south.

"Tomorrow I'm going to go around the hospital and stuff, and then I'm going to do a full investigation into the south. Can I borrow the map?

"I'll burn it when this case is over, so give it back to me."

It's not an important town, so it's not classified, but it's supposed to be disposed of just in case.

"Okay."

Kosuke pockets the map he receives.

The next day, the three enter town again.

"Go around the doctor's house in the residential area first. Is that all right?

"Yeah."

Ellis checks with Wiale and walks out.

Explore two small hospitals and a pharmacist's house, but Weare never reacted to anything and found it empty.

"You had the ingredients for poisonous drugs, but you didn't have the poison itself. I didn't miss it."

Bad for the landlord, but let me look into it in detail.

"So as planned, I was wondering if we were headed south"

Moving from north to south, I also saw a shop dealing in cigarettes, and there was no anomaly there either. I tilt my neck to see where it is, and as I look for it, time comes and I leave town.

The town, looking back with a breath, remains quiet, regardless of the beginning.

And the sun goes down again, and the night falls, and the three resume their investigation. Today I enter from the south of town. He walked around just like the day before, and Yusuke stopped.

"It smells weird"

"What's that smell? It smelled like rot."

"I guess it feels like it's full"

"What direction does it smell?

This way, Yusuke leads the way, and the destination is not that big a barn. Is it smaller than the average house?

If we got closer, Ellis and Weale could feel the smell, too. There is a store right next to the warehouse, and the items look like booze.

"That's a brewery. If you drank too much alcohol, it would have made you sick. I'll check it out."

It was locked, but Yusuke took it off a little. When I opened the door, a strong odor poured out of the warehouse. It stinks enough to stain my eyes, and tears come to my three eyes.

Once this is irresistible, the three of them retreat.

"There it is. There was a reaction out of it."

Pinch your nose, and Wiale points to the barn.

"I hope they found me, but I don't really want to go in there."

"Wouldn't it be a little bit if the wind magic changed the air?

Before that, Yusuke asks him to change his title to Fake God Killer, holds his breath, enters the barn, and opens the window.

Where Yusuke comes out, Ellis lets the wind blow and pushes out the smell in the warehouse. The smell fills the surrounding area and Kosuke pushes it away with the magic of the wind.

Continue for about five minutes and stop the magic and go into the barn if that's enough. There was still a smell, but it was better than when I opened the door, to the best of my patience.

"This is it."

Wiale pointed to the wine barrel. Is it grape wine or apple liquor?

"Should I break it? But that just breaks the barrel, and the contents just spread on the floor?

"I guess we should just evaporate the contents, but it would be quicker to get Weale to do something about it directly."

"Right. I'm gonna do it, so I'm gonna stop influencing you, okay?

Put in a no and unconcentrate. The discomfort that I have felt before strikes me as soon as possible. but returned to normal air without a minute.

In the palm of Wiale, there is a distortion removed from the liquor. They distorted the rate of growth of weeds there and consumed that distortion.

That solves the problem. The changed liquor will remain intact and you will not be able to drink it.

The soldiers also notice that the atmosphere in the town has changed and step into the town to make sure there are no problems.

The three report to the captain what the distortion was, the building entered for the investigation, etc., and receive a report created by the captain.

The three flew to Wang Capital on the transfer, and the soldiers stayed on site for some time now for reporting to villagers scattered among the people.

"Is it resolved safely? Thank you."

Fleur reads the report given directly by Kosuke and learns that it has been resolved. Give the finished documents to one of the escorts and have them taken to the king.

Pleased to solve the problem, Fleur smiles calmly, as usual.

"You'll have a reward. And that's the problem solved, and can you give me a minute? It's been a while since we've sung together."

Yusuke doesn't sing, he plays.

"Okay. The place to play is in the usual room?

"Yeah, I'll have the reward ready while you're singing. We also have the Survide Ore in the letter."

A little while later, a lazy singing and instrument sounded all over the castle that I hadn't heard in a while.

When they heard that, the inhabitants of the castle knew that their daily routine had returned.

At the same time, the Cohocks watching the ground were confirming the success of the operation.

Even so, it is not the movement of the Kosuke people that I watched. It's the distortion disturbance that was taking place on the Sebsic continent.

"Did you get it? Now all we have to do is wait for it to move."

"Right, how long will it take?

"We'll be traveling by boat, soon. Long-range metastases are not possible."

"When it moves, let it know, let it move, let it finish"

"You don't have to let me know, we're just gonna lose one or two countries."

"Depending on your path, you'll come to the country where the dragon killer lives, so you should avoid that. If an acquaintance dies, you will grieve."

"You mean watching the irresistible progress and moving as planned?

The gods nodded at Kohok's confirmation.
