A Settlement Tale 1 (side Zerate)

"Nooo... I didn't know you were going to run. Abel, he'll do it."

Zerate, Abel's father, sat back on the chair, saying so.

I woke up in the morning and there was no sign of Abel.

I made a fuss and searched around the settlement, but I still can't find it.

Not one of the sightings.

I also thought that I was involved in something because I didn't have one of the letters to put away, but I'm pretty sure I saw it as something I rebelled against the example marriage from the timing.

Plus, the mysterious crap that Abel called the Autoem Trolley is gone.

There were signs of moving something like a trolley in every part of the settlement, but following it leads to the entrance and exit of the settlement.

I'm sure Abel left the settlement in the middle of the night.

Neither are the tracks so firm.

If you've left the settlement, it's hard to find it.

If you don't know where you're going, you can't even chase him.

Zerate sighs deeply, then peeks at his daughter, Gisele, from the gap between her fingers.

When I heard Abel had escaped, I was wary that Gisele would storm, but that doesn't look like it.

Giselle is lonely, but not disturbed.

Zerate was relieved, but he felt something that didn't fall.

I rebelled against marrying myself and my favorite brother ran away at night.

Sometimes you wonder.

If you let it build-up, you don't know when it'll explode.

I'm also afraid to irritate you poorly right now, but if you ever have anything, you should let me throw up.

"Giselle, I'm sorry. There's no way Abel's guy..."

"Father, the... don't blame him if your brother returns"

"Mm?"

"My brother is not very keen. There's a little bit of stuff going on, and I think I'm surprised. Maybe he'll be back soon after the tour. Don't ask me anything then, I'll welcome you."

"That's not how it works. Abel broke the discipline of the settlement and left the settlement. That too, such as fleeing before a marriage with all the attention around...... If you don't blame me for that, what do you think of the surroundings? No, I don't know what other houses already think..."

I thought I'd keep talking for a long time, but Giselle lost her eyesight.

Gisele is the biggest victim of this one. That's why she wants you to forgive her, so maybe it's a funny story that she makes herself a kick.

"Well... if you go home, I'll try to. If you want to come home yourself, then yes."

"I'm sure I'll be back"

If Gisele is thinking positively, she should refrain from watering it down.

But if this is clearly proclaimed, I would also like to question the grounds.

"... but, you know, Abel must have left of her own free will. Is that what makes it so easy to come home?"

"First of all, your brother is not physically fit. There will be no patience and no guts when it comes to anything other than magic. You may not be able to withstand the changes in the environment to come back. Whatever it is, you might come back broken on the road. I'm sure you'll be full of creativity then, so give him a warm welcome. I don't want to chase you where you're hurt."

"Mm, mmm... mmm... sure, well, maybe..."

To a lesser degree of appreciation than I thought, Zerate often lost his answer.

I still thought I had something to think of my brother who abandoned himself and ran away, but I don't feel anything more than my sister worrying about my brother in Gisele's expression.

"... as early as possible, right. You might be back by twilight."

Something, it was a sure way of saying it.

Maybe there's some basis for this.

"If you don't come back by tomorrow... I'd like my brother to come home on his own feet if he can, but let's go over the map and pick him up here. If you go to the chief's house, you may also find a map that your brother used as a reference for his night escape. As long as you know that, you'll see where you're going. I have an idea what kind of place your brother wants to go."

The map is not that accurate.

Scaling also varies dramatically depending on who wrote it and the times.

Depending on which map you see, your impression of where you are close and where you are far away will also change.

Conversely, as long as Abel knows which map he referenced, it's certainly not hard to narrow down where he's going.

Gisele is also familiar with Abel's tastes.

"But the settlement code says it doesn't go out without darkness..."

"It's not dark! If I left you outside, it's not something I figured out what would happen to your brother! My brother is not very mentally strong!

"This code is heavier than the rest. It is so said that if the Marlens leave the settlement without darkness, they will necessarily regret it."

In fact, they say there have been young people who have left Marlen settlements in the last few years.

But the young man said he had returned less than a month later.

He said he was a grand, energetic man, but when he came back, he was in a suspicious mood for behavior, and he was rattling and shivering?

Since that one incident, it has been rumored that anything that breaks the code will be cursed.

"That's just superstition. If you might be back soon, you can't hang the chase on your brother, who came back too noisy. Hurry up and chase, but if you don't know the direction, you won't be able to catch up. But if you're not coming back after a day of waiting, you should go find it!

"But even though I squeeze where I'm going, I can't say for sure. It will take decades to find it. Take the trouble..."

"... but with!

Gisele, who didn't show up disturbed even after Abel disappeared, finally came here and wept in her eyes.

I know Zerate and myself are stubborn.

But searching is not something you can afford.

It's a code breaker, and it's a complete family inner rub. I can't possibly ask anyone else to help me.

If you have a high chance of coming back naturally, as it stands, you just have to bet on it.

Giselle won't convince me.

But I can't let this pass.

"... ok. Right. I've said things that don't make sense."

"Mm?"

I thought so, it broke lightly.

But why? I have a bad feeling about it.

Gisele stood up softly and tried to leave the room.

"Wait, Giselle! No way, you're not thinking about leaving the settlement after you!

"No, I don't stand up for magic arms like my brother, nor do I have anything else I'm good at. Because I don't know any other common sense. If you go outside, you'll be back soon."

"... so is that"

Sure, Abel could manage to live outside because she could push anything forcefully with magic.

But Giselle isn't.

He doesn't seem to know that either, so he won't be impotent.

"I have an errand to do, I beg your pardon"

That said Gisele bowed her head and left the room.
