As the sun inclined and the color of the sky changed from blue to sea, the silent landscape of the summit was also dyeing its color into dusk so as to keep pace with the sky.

The wind gently strokes the brown skin of the exposed upper body with a slight leaf rubbing sound as the sesame grass stretches from the gap in the stone floor of the company (do it) trace leaves against the wind blowing from the opening of the ceiling.

When I opened my closed eyes and looked at the sprawling weed in front of me, I pushed my right hand out in a motion that flowed from the position I stood on my half to unleash the magic of exquisite force.

"[Wind Blade (Cutter)]!"

When activated [Wind Blade (Cutter)], the basic magic of the magician's wind system, an invisible blade of wind sappily mowed the weed in front of him.

The mowed bundle of grass shall be scattered upon its stone floor without sound, and shall lie upon it.

The basic magic but also the power was considerably suppressed, and this few practice exercises, which were only thorough to mow the narrow range of grass in front of me, have finally got the hang of it.

"Ki-yun! Kiyun!"

Then Ponta, who was watching the situation beside him, raises his voice and rings.

"Oh, will Ponta try it next?

"Ki-yun!

Saying so and shaking the story, Ponta went forward ringing to answer it as she waved her tail like cotton wool.

"Kiku-kun..."

As he caged his strength with such a voice, Ponta stood up to stare at the young tree that was beginning to stretch as he crawled out of the gap in the stone floor in front of him.

Eventually, when the grassy hair of the ponta starts to turn into a bright color, the leaves of the tree, etc. that were falling with a whirlwind around that ponta, begin to dance around the perimeter of the ponta.

"Ki-yun!

When a whiff of temper emanated from Ponta, a whirlwind burst out of that whirlwind, cutting the young tree in front of him from the ground up at the same time as some of the leaves that were dancing around him to show him.

"Uhm, that's impeccable! Then let's do a reward stir-fried bean."

"Kiyun "

I was impressed by Ponta's desire to improve her magic, and as she reached out to give her stir-fried beans from a leather bag on her hips as a reward, Arian's murky voice hung from behind.

"Hey, Ark, I'm teaching Ponta something noisy..."

Looking back at that voice, she stood arm in arm as she frowned.

"In making this my base for the future, I thought I'd do some weed removal. Ponta imitated me when I was trained in magic to mow grass. Are cottonwool foxes less aggressive against external enemies?

For now, pinch your own defense, and at your feet say, "Still no fried beans?," he shifted the axis of the topic with such a question in his mouth as he dropped his gaze at Ponta, who leaned up at his little neck.

To that own question, Ariane also shook her head with her neck tilted as she turned her gaze to Ponta.

"I don't know much about the ecology of cottonwool foxes... but I've never heard of using offensive magic."

"Really? It may start to be used in the growth process, but if Ponta also has the means to defend itself, it's hard to go beyond that."

"That may be so... Ah, Ark, your body is starting to come back to normal again."

Arian was still a little reluctant to return the other side, but raised his voice so that his gaze noticed the change in the other side's body and pointed it out.

"Uhm, apparently even the amount of hot spring water you drink will change the effect time"

The amount of hot spring I drank this time was about one litre, and the effect time was about two or three hours.

The upper body of the brown skin disappeared like a summer and returned to the body of only the bone behind it. I stroke my own chest ribbed to see how it went.

When she told Arian the effect time of the hot spring, she sighed a little and clasped her shoulders.

"It's kind of a subtle effect time."

As Arian said, it's pretty subtle as a time to be able to get the flesh back. Or does it seem a lot better compared to three minutes of a giant hero of a certain X78 nebula?

However, when exercising, the effect time also feels depressed.

It's like some kind of energy in a hot spring is consumed by exercise, but I couldn't get a definite answer when I checked with Williarsfim of Dragon King (Dragon Road).

As he was burying his thoughts on the efficacy of the hot springs, he raised his face and mouthed his original errand, as Arian unexpectedly recalled.

"Yeah, well, dinner's ready. Chiyome made it for me today."

"Ki-yun!

To that word, Ponta, who had been urging the stir-fried beans that had now looked up to him, was singing and driving for the appearance of Chiyome.

"Right. So tomorrow, as planned, once you're out of the King's Capital in Rhoden, you don't mind stepping from there to Lord Chiyome's lair?

Confirming her plans for tomorrow to Arian as she watched that Ponta's back, she answered concurrently, similarly chasing Ponta's back with her eyes.

"Yes, because I'm also interested in the hiding places of the Yamano people, and Chiyome is definitely inviting me. Shall we go too?"

That being said, in response to Arian's urging, I headed to Chiyome's waiting kitchen trail.

Upon entering the kitchen trail room, there was a fire lit in what used to be a faint spot, lighting a dimmed room. The pan is hung on the top of the pan, and the quiet sound of boiling up the hot air along with the sound of the firewood explosion enters the ear.

There was a chiyome listening to its simmering sound with black triangular cat ears, scratching it with the spoon she had to check how it was simmering in the pan, and Ponta waving her tail in such a way that she was already ready to wait for dinner.

"This is wild bird's cabbage juice, which I often eat during my illness at dinner today. It's nourishing and it's a classic dish inside."

Seeing this one, Chiyome moved the meat of the wild bird, Ponta's portion, onto a plate while explaining the content of today's dinner dedication, placing it in front of Ponta, who can wait now or now.

Ponta uses the spiritual magic of the wind to cool its still hot bird meat.

Dinner today seems to be the first meal I've had since I fell unconscious, or a sick meal passed on to the Blade Heart (Jinsin) clan.

─ Well, I'm not exactly a sick person...

It is undoubtedly the shame of this body not to drink or eat for seven days. I don't think there are infusion facilities or anything in this world. If you go to bed for seven days, you will go to the afterlife with dehydration.

"Thank you, then."

Chiyome picked me up a pair of pieces, thanked me and teased me.

The meat of the bird has a slightly wild flavour, a well-simmered body is soft, and its slightly habitual fat dissolves throughout the soup. The bitter mountain vegetables combined with a little salt gas in it made me think of it as somewhere like a medicinal meal.

Speaking of which, I just want another flavor here.

I sip the soup with that sentiment that it would taste better if it had a base flavour like soy sauce or consomme.

"... didn't it fit your mouth? Lord Ark."

As he sipped the soup silently, Chiyome was peering at this side of his face with a slightly anxious look.

"No, I'm sorry. I was thinking a little bit. I want another flavor, but this looks good for my health and delicious."

When I said that and laughed, Arian, who was directly in front of me, pointed to this one as he included the spoon in his mouth.

"Ark, you're back in the flesh, aren't you?

"Hmm? Oh."

As she pointed out, when I dropped my gaze on my body, something that was somehow a bone body had turned into an elf flesh with brown skin.

"Excuse me, Lord Ark. I used hot spring water for the water in the soup, so that's the impact. And as for the flavor, it's hard to get anything but salt and vanilla in there, so there's a lot of flavoring here."

Chiyome knocked the cat ear over his head a little and lowered his head to apologize, so he shook his neck sideways to make a hasty explanation and changed the subject.

"No, I'm sorry about this one. Well... it's hard to get salt or something in there. How do we procure the status quo? And what are you going to do when you move here?

Salt is a necessity for the living. With the sea, you can refine salt from it, but this is a basin surrounded by mountains.

If we do well, we may find a place for rock salt to produce, but it's still not like we'll find it overnight.

Pointing that out, Chiyome turned his gaze toward Arian.

"There are a few places inside that can mine rock salt, but we need to look for those places again when we move to the land. For that reason, I was wondering if the Elves would be able to accommodate us for the time being, so that we could have a discussion with the Elders of Laratoia at the mouth of Lord Arian."

Ariane nods to affirm it, too, in the words of Chiyome.

Apparently a lot of talk was going on while I was losing my mind.

"Well, you had a long story to talk about while I was asleep. So you've done your job at this company?

Chiyome nods small at this when asked so.

"Yes, I was able to find the two objects that I was looking for, the first company and the Spirit Crystal of the Deed."

"" Deed Spirit Crystal "?

Listening back to unfamiliar words about her ears, I recall Williarsfim of Dragon King (Dragon Road) calling her "bearer of spiritual crystals” and so forth.

In response to such doubts on the other side, Chiyome placed a pair in his hand beside him and opened his own chest of sneaky clothes slightly to show it.

Her white skin was exposed to the chest - where she was lit by the kitchen fire that lit the room, peering into her face so that a slightly larger diamond-shaped gem shining in a rainbow color would stick on it.

It was faint and bright repeatedly as it pulsed with slight light, as if it were alive.

"I told Lord Arian once that fusion with this spiritual crystal will allow us to use ninja. This is a magic device that calls and contracts spirits that go well with you, and is a treasure of a family that has been handed down from generation to generation by the first Hanzoo."

With that said, she let Zhu up a little on her cheek and served her chest to hide that crystal from her own gaze, which she was peeking intriguingly into.

I felt some sort of pressure gaze from the front, but it would be a good idea to pretend I didn't see it here. Put one cough in and sip with your mouth on the lid in your hand.

"Well, there are so many strange magic tricks in the world."

Speaking of his candid thoughts on the demonic props with effects he had never seen before, Chiyome exhaled with a slight drop in the cat's ear.

"Lord Ark doesn't seem to know where this came from either - I was expecting a little because I saw him as the hometown of the first Hanzoo..."

In response to her remarks, Arian, who was in the front, moved those pointy ears slightly and looked surprised and turned to this side.

"Huh? Is Ark home to a guy named Hanzo, the first chief in Chiyome's? You were a Hanzoo, weren't you?

I remember Ariane telling me about the origin of the word "ninja”, which she herself said to Chiyome, which was to be used in her hometown.

That being said, at that time, I replied with the perception that I was a person as well as the first Hanzo, but my present appearance has become a specification for the Elves, not the Hate and People.

"... in my memory, I meant to be a human being, too. Thank you. There's so much to remember."

─ ─ This is all I can think of anymore.

Leaning her neck and clouding her words like that, Arian roars at the root of her eyebrows to contemplate.

I put that roaring girlfriend aside and threw other questions at Chiyome for the purpose of getting off topic.

"That spiritual crystal, but not many want to know where it came from?

To that question of his own, Chiyome tried to stroke temporarily the spiritual crystals in his own chest from above the ninja outfit before answering.

"... Yes. Legend has it that other than the first generation entrusted ten" Deed (Chisel) Spirit Crystals "to the clan, I have never heard of this magic prop anywhere else. Eight of them are in there now, plus nine of them were stored in this company (do it). I hear the other one was already lost a long time ago. With a few more of this, I can bottom up the power inside..."

Has the first Hanzo brought its magic props into this world, or has it created them with its own hands since it came to this world - at least not like the items it knows.

"Is it still not easy to remove the spiritual crystal and its fusion?

"When I can remove this, it's when I'm dead. This is because after the death of those who inherited it from generation to generation, it was handed over from the ashes to the next generation of the Liu Ninja Qualifiers."

Quietly illuminated by the flames of fever, her expression was not that of a girl, but of a warrior who had put his life at risk for his compatriots because of the inside.

On the look of that chiyome, I couldn't find a second word there, scratching the mountain vegetables in the leftovers and sighing before moving on to my plans for tomorrow.

"So tomorrow, as planned, are we going to go to Lord Chiyome's lair? Lord Chiyome, who became a treat."

Chiyome lowered her head quietly, trying to show her thanks for the words.
