Shinka no Mi

Well, is it time to go back to the inn?

Having played at sea with all my heart, I suggested that to everyone.

"That's right. I played a lot today and I'm tired!

Sort of. In normal combat, I moved parts of my body that I didn't move very much, and if I succeeded, would my muscles hurt tomorrow?

Well then, when I get back to the inn, shall I massage Al's body?

"What? Sally, can't you do that?

"Yeah! I'll take care of it!

Salia slapped herself in the chest against Al.

Recently, Salia has done less of a thing, but it's an incredible spec.

I do housework and everything perfectly.

Besides, it's even more amazing because this is the gorilla before we changed into humans.

Surprised at the height of Saria's specs, Oliga pulled the bottom of my pants by surprise.

"... Seiichi Oniichan"

"Hmm? What's wrong?

"... something's falling."

Heh?

When Oliga-chan turned her gaze towards her, something did roll up there.

I don't see much from here, but what?

"Should I check it first? I wouldn't be in trouble if I were you."

That said, it's impossible for people to flow in...

"People!?"

Was it one man... who was on the beach? Woman? What do you mean, she was a neutral person.

But what attracts more attention is the clothes that the person is wearing.

What a person wearing…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… After all, there is something like a knife on my waist.

I mean...!

"How much do I do!? This is a person, isn't it!? This is a person!?"

"Calm down, idiot! First you check your consciousness, right? Plus, you'll be able to see it with healing magic!

"Ha!? Sure!?"

I was frightened that the body of water was rising, but I immediately regained my mind and activated the most effective of recovery magic, the highest level of light attribute magic "Healing of the Virgin Mary".

As it is, light is drawn into the body of the person who is lying in front of him.

Then a change came to the person who had fallen.

"Uhh...."

He's alive!

I see. Seiichi's magic now won't hurt me, but I'm weak from seeing it... and I think you should take me back to our inn once. That's where I can help after I wake up. "

"Okay."

I hurried back to the inn when I held the fallen man.

◇ ◆ ◇

We arrived safely at the inn, but soon after we arrived at the inn, the person I was carrying woke up.

"Nh...? Here, here..."

"Ah... are you okay?

"Hmm!?"

The moment I spoke, the person holding me stretched out his hand and pulled out the sword.

Haah!

"Makoto!?"

Al shouted at the sudden attack...

"Ha!?"

My God, before the sword touched me, it bent over to the point where I didn't know what was going on, like a kind of contemporary art sculpture.

Looking at the sword, the sword-puller opened his eyes and Al sighed with astonishment.

"... no, I don't know what that means. How does a weapon end up like that?"

Come on?

"Why can't I see you?"

I'm sorry, I don't know if that's what they say.

Before you left Barbados Magic School, when you fought the Kaiser Empire soldiers, your weapons and armor broke and broke like this.

Worse, I hurt myself or something broke my body on my own...

But I want you to believe me. You definitely didn't do something from me....!

With that in mind, the man who pulled the sword escaped from my arm and showed me how alert he was.

"Who are you...?!"

"No, that's my line..."

"Hmm!? What's with that outfit?! Shame on you!"

Being confused by the vigilant figure, he noticed our appearance now and pointed to me with his face red.

"What... swimsuit...?

"Mizuki...? I don't know what you're talking about! There's a naked bastard wandering around! That girl over there, what are you dressed for!? I'm in a hurry!

I don't know, but apparently I've never seen a swimsuit before for anyone in front of me.

Sure, it looks like underwear to me. Well, I don't really feel it unless you tell me.

It doesn't matter, but let's cut to the chase.

"Would you please calm down and listen to me? We just brought you here because you fell on the beach."

"Were you down...? No, wait. I am...!?"

Suddenly I thought I'd shut up, and the person in front of me was bluishing and suddenly about to run out.

"Dear Moo-sama...! Kh!?"

"Oops...."

"Hey!?"

However, even though the wounds were healed by magic, my health did not recover, but I was able to hold where I was about to fall.

"Get away, you insolent bastard! You... you're a fool to know the Guardian God!

"I'm sorry, I don't know...."

"What!?"

The figure in my words... the Guardian opened his eyes. I'm sorry, I really don't know.

After all, I thought maybe I was the only one who didn't know, so I asked everyone.

"You know what?

"I don't know!

"I don't even know."

"... I don't know"

"Wow, me too...."

"I'm not interested!

About one person answered, but nobody here knew about the Guardian God.

However, it seemed quite shocking to the Guardian and fell off his knees.

"Let me tell you, I don't know who I am....? Fearing that Yamato was that person, this awkward guy....?

"By the way, that Yamato? I don't even know...."

……

My words were bad, and the Goddess was silent for a while.

As she watched the situation with concern, the guardian God eventually opened his mouth.

"... I want to ask you one question. Where are we?

"Here? This is an inn called Umineko Pavilion in Suzanne, a port town in the Kingdom of Wienburg."

"The Kingdom of Wimbledon... is a foreign country...!? Well, why...?"

"Um...?

"... I'm sorry, I'm upset."

Then, the guardian goddess stood up and lowered his head, calming down the confusion.

"... it looks like you saved my life. I'm sorry for pointing my sword at the benefactor, though I'm mistaken."

"Yes, no. If there's a stranger out there all of a sudden, you'll be alert... and it's my fault? I don't know if it is, but that's how the sword went..."

"Ah...."

The Guardian looked at the sword in his hand and remembered it in my words.

Al pushed me aside in such a guardian image.

"... hey, Seiichi. I can't do anything about it."

"Yeah!? I don't even know what to say..."

"No, I don't care. That sword? Looks like he didn't want to attack you with a weapon.

"I hate swords!?"

What, you hate weapons?

... no, not now. He was avoided by the sea.

So, are you sure you don't want to attack me like that?

So... if I forgive you, I guess I'll go back?

"Um... can I go back now?

Yes, it was the moment I spoke up.

The sword, which had been bent so complicated, returned to its original form in an instant.

"Ha!?"

"Oh, really?"

"... I didn't really think I was coming back."

Hey!

I asked if Al could do it, but he didn't react!

After staring at the sword again, the Goddess shook it several times on the spot.

The dagger was very beautiful, and even from an amateur's point of view, I found that the Guardian God was strong.

After shaking the sword to a certain extent, I put it into my sheath and lowered my head again.

"I can't help it. It was originally the result of an awkward manipulation... but I need you to return the weapon."

"Oh no... I'm glad I'm back."

"... you didn't give me a name. My name is Yaiba the Guardian God. It is the eighteenth generation of the Guardian deity who has served the Yamato family for generations."

Wow, I said thank you!

I was touched by such a saying, but the more I saw the Guardian, the more I felt like I jumped out of an era play.

Slit eyes on indigo hair tied together.

A samurai stands up.

I don't know what to say, I'm going to be in the new team. He's handsome. No, doesn't that have anything to do with your face...?

The tone feels like an overseas person who admires samurai, but it suits me very well.

We introduced ourselves lightly because of Morijin-san's name, but Morijin-san has an unfortunate look on his face.

"If it's true, I'd like to repay you, but I have to go back. Therefore, I would like to thank you again."

"That's fine... are you okay?

"No matter what you look at, you have confidence in your arms.... I was unconscious back then, but I'm fine now."

The guardian god stares somewhere far away.

I don't know what happened, but I don't think it's a topic for us to get into.

"Uh... you said you'd be back, but do you know where it is?

When I asked her that, she frowned and looked worried.

"That's... I didn't expect you to come to another country. The only thing I know is that my country is beyond the sea...."

"The sea? What's the name of the country?

Al asked as he noticed something, and the god shook his head.

"There is no name in the land of the wicked. Because it's like we're still taking each other's small territories… Speaking of which, I've only once heard how the countries of the handicapped are called by other countries. Sure... it was an eastern country."

I see.

Al sighed at the word of the Guardian.

Rather, the eastern country... is a mysterious country where I've heard only the name of many times, but I didn't know the truth.

I'm sure it's because of the appearance and the atmosphere of the patron god? I was expecting that, but when they say it properly.

"So I'm sorry, but I have to leave here right away. The country is awaited by the Self-Help."

"Really...."

"It seems like there are circumstances, and I can't help but keep it here. This is my first time here, and there's nothing I can do."

Al is right. We've come here to Susan for sightseeing, so we didn't have much to help.

Then Salia raised her hand.

"Yes! Then why don't you ask the Guild about the ship?

Huh?

"You're from across the sea, aren't you? Then I don't think I can go home without your ship!

Sort of.

"If we could help, wouldn't we be asking you where the ship is?

Salia's right, we could do that.

Luckily, we were here before, so we know a little bit about the land, and it's perfect for the Alliance Branch location.

"So we'd love to help guide you to the ship....."

"Oh, no! I just want to thank you for saving me... but I can't let you do that..."

"So-so. If you have to hurry home, please come with us."

He nodded as if Al had said something.

"... I can't wait. I'm counting on you."

----This is how we moved to the Alliance Branch in Susan, caring for the Guardian God, who hasn't returned to normal.
