Survival in Another World With My Master

"Hey, Sylvie. Can I ask you something?

"Yeah? What?

After finishing today's labor, spending two hours and finishing the first fight. I decided to talk to Sylvie about sleeping in the same bed as usual. I mean, I decided to take a step forward.

"Can you tell me about Sylvie? The past, from the time the kingdom of Merinard was nationalized to the kingdom of the Holy King, until Da Nang and the others came to the black forest and met me."

"... I see. Where did you start? Did you tell him I came to the Black Forest because of the royal family?

You heard me. Surely when I turned ten, I would learn how to live as an elf in the black forest. "

"That's right. Soon thereafter, the kingdom of Merinard was nationalized to the Holy King. At that time, I was still a child, and I was neglectful of the situation in the world. Later on, I'm sure my father wanted to leave me in the Black Forest."

"Well, that's a good idea."

Being king of one country would have been familiar with the situation in the surrounding countries. They must have understood that the Holy King's kingdom would invade the Kingdom of Merinard. It's no wonder I let my youngest daughter escape to the black forest beyond the Omit Wilderness in preparation for that.

"About twenty years ago, the kingdom of Merinard was nationalized to the Holy King. After a fierce battle, the kingdom of Merinard surrendered and many of its people were sacrificed. Instead of offering their royal identity, Father and Mother wished the people peace."

"... I see."

"When it comes to whether the promise is kept, it doesn't seem to be the case. Broadly speaking, King Merinard's people have not been sold out as slaves to other nations, but many villages on the border have been destroyed since he became a kingdom of the Holy King. The residents were supposed to be killed by monsters, but I don't know."

I don't trust you.

I don't have enough evidence to say no to black, but I'm sure it's suspicious.

"Did you tell me that Danang and the others rebelled in the kingdom of Merinard three years ago?

"Yeah, I heard."

"Back then, I was still in the black forest. From that time on, the refugees had arrived in the black forest, and I had no way of knowing anything about the outside of the forest other than asking the refugees about the state of the Kingdom of Merinard. But one time, the refugees who fled told me that Danang and the others had rebelled."

"Yeah."

Sylvie stares at the back of her hand lying on the bed as if she were checking her brown skin.

"I can't stand or be around anymore. At that time, I had already grown up so that I could call myself an adult as an elf, and the arm of the bow and the magical arm of the Spirit were quite good. I also learned the secret technique of event collapse using spiritual stones. I pushed through the opposition of the elders and the elders in the village, and jumped into the great wilderness of Omit with as many spiritual stones as I could hold."

"Ball of guns."

"I think it was shallow now. After all, Danang's rebellion had already been suppressed and he had just fled to the great wilderness of Omit. We were lucky to meet."

"It's a big place, here."

"Hmm. Da Nang and the others had a chase for the Holy King. I used Spirit Stones to destroy my pursuers and became known to the Holy King's kingdom as the Witch of the Black Forest. Then Danang and the others returned to the Black Forest. This happened to my skin and body when I buried the pursuers of the Holy King's kingdom with hatred and impulse."

"Oh, seriously. What the hell happened to Mirakuru?

As a result of killing with hatred and impulse, he fell into darkness and became like a dark elf? What is that? Cool.

Sylvie answered with a bitter smile.

"Elves are very close to spirits compared to other tribes. Emotional upset, use of magic, the surrounding situation at that time, the purpose of exercising spirits, and various other factors may overlap to transform the body. Kill a lot of people with hatred and anger like me back then, keep feelings of fear and resentment in them, release spirits for slaughter, and destroy as much as possible, and you can become the skin of me now. The white skin turns black like this, the body is tough, and using spiritual magic to destroy is more effective than protecting and healing."

"Hmm. I mean, they evolve specifically in combat. Elves are wonderful creatures."

"I can't believe Koske said that."

Sylvie pops my nose. Certainly, I may not have lost with mysterious creatures.

"Elves like me are called dark fallen elves, dark elves, fallen elves, filthy ones, etc. It seems that there were a certain number of elves like me in a time of great strife, but these days it seems unusual."

"Hmm, I see. Very well. Perhaps even if Da Nang and the others called me Princess or Princess, I feel uncomfortable. Does what you just told me have a lot to do with it?

"... spend peace in the safest black forest in the country, not in time for the rebellion. The country is as good as gone. I can't believe I deserve to be called Princess."

Sylphie guided my hand to her cheeks and rubbed it sweetly. I'll stroke Sylvie's cheek as she asks.

"This battle is more than everyone wants, it's my own self. I am trying to sacrifice the lives of many people for my own sake. I'm going to hell too."

"I'll stay with you till the end of hell, master."

"That's nice... I love you, Koske"

Instead of answering, they cross their lips and smile at each other. The night has just begun.

Two weeks have passed since we finished setting up the outpost.

The outpost was surrounded by a wide empty borehole laid out by Dr. Woodspike, and a jump bridge was installed at the castle gate. In battle, we plan to wind up this jump bridge and rain crossbows and barista arrows from above the barrier.

There's an escape route underground, and we have the last resort to activate it when we abandon the fort. I talked to Isla and established a way to safely and securely detonate the explosive blocks from afar. Fuhahaha.

This outpost was to be staffed by a small group of 150 men, roughly half of King Merinard's citizens who had taken refuge in the village of Elves. All of them are healthy and healthy enough to withstand the battle. More than 80% of the combatants, including those who originally had combat skills and those who had been trained after evacuating to the village of Elves, were actually on the front lines.

Incidentally, the ratio of men to women is surprisingly 1: 21. Of the 154, there are only seven men, including me. I, Danang, Cubi, Lord Leonard, ex-guard Blutbad Warg, ex-adventurer Blue Ghost Indi, alchemist Monkey Psycho. To be honest, my shoulders are very narrow...

"Psychs shouldn't go out alone much."

"I was scared...!

This is the men's lounge set up at the front line - it sounds stylish, but it's mostly a hangout for men.

Psychos of the monkey tribe, who was about to be taken into the girls' room in that hangout, was depressed and sweating cold. My palpitations haven't healed yet.

Psychos are a little bit more hysterical than me... Incidentally, the monkey tribe is a monkey by its name, with a slightly longer arm, a clever tail, and a little hairy than normal humans.

It possesses a soft and gentle personality.

"Sometimes I feel like I'm in danger."

Warg mutters with his teeth peeled off. It's a scary face, but it seems to be laughing bitterly.

"With all these subhumans, it's always someone he's in love with."

Indi, a former adventurer of the Blue Demon race, also smiled bitterly. Should I call him an adventurer scout or a bandit? Seems to have a different skill than the army scorn, but I don't know the details. It is a fine macho with blue skin and only one horn growing from the forehead. He is also the one who cured the legs and arms that I used to make bad with my splints.

You mean, gorgeous or rough? How about an adventurous personality? I like Cubi and Schmel and I see them hanging around.

"My life has stabilized, and my morale has risen as a result of my training days... it's a problem, but it's hard to say when I think about the past and the future."

Da Nang, who is sitting in the same seat, also laughs bitterly. Da Nang and Sir Leonard are not as overt as the Sikes, but they seem to be approached by the women's side.

"... I don't have that kind of thing?

"You're a princess."

"Not only that, I don't know about Isla or Merti or Schmel, but Gerda or Pirna and Harpy are after you, too. We all know what they're after around here, so I don't think anybody's gonna call."

"Eh, what's the first time I've heard that?"

"It's dull."

I am stunned by the words of Cubi and Indie. Really? Am I being targeted by Ira, Merty, Gerda, Pilna? Think about it. If Sylvie wasn't around, someone would be by my side, but you're not pretending at all?

"We are discussing things with women around here. When the time comes, I get angry."

"Hmm... or as a minister, my relationship with Sylvie is..."

"We wouldn't have gone without Koske. He's a legendary rare person, and there's no problem."

"The elders of the Black Forest admitted to being rare, so there's nothing wrong with being who you are."

Seriously, it's rare. It's amazing.

It seems that the position of a rare person had a more social status than I thought. Marrying a royal family isn't a problem, it's amazing. Isn't it amazing? But it seems that there is a legacy like the so-called Densetsuyushi, and if it's appropriate, so is it?

"Anyway, the shortage of men is serious. If you don't infiltrate the kingdom of Merinard and bring a man, Six's chastity will pinch."

"What if I can take it?

"That's definitely not enough. And then Koske will have to take care of all of them."

"I just want Sylvie."

"It's a way to appreciate it, but it's also a man's measure to receive a woman who's worthy of him."

"What about Lord Leonard?

"... I give my heart to my late wife."

"I don't think double standards are good."

Mmm.

Warg and Psychs pushed Ser Leonard into silence.

Hmm, Harlem, right? It would be a lie to say that I don't admire it as a man, but I'm not interested at the moment. Sylphie alone is enough, or Sylphie alone is enough.

"By the way, Koske, what's going on with the underground shelter?

"It's a forceful conversation... well, that's fine. The installation is going well, or it's over. If we make it once, we can set it up in an instant with just the ingredients."

"It's as convenient as ever. So, finally?"

"Hmm, I've already started selecting people. They'll be announcing the start of the operation soon."

"The first thing we did was we toured the surrounding villages, liberated the people, and protected them as bases."

"The delivery of supplies is over. Food, water and arrows."

Is that food? Block Cookies "

"Yes."

Yeah, it's delicious.

Block cookies are block-type nutritious foods that I create with my craftsmanship. It's like a cookie about the thickness of a thumb, with dried fruit, honey, nuts, oil, etc., kneaded and baked inside. The texture that crumbles if it's rodent is one of the items for sale.

Have you heard of it anywhere? What do you want me to do? I don't know. This is a high-performance nutritional food made from a confectionery called shortbread, hahaha.

By the way, all of the ingredients for block cookies are grown at the base. There are some fields in the outpost, but this is for consumption and stockpiling at the outpost. Nevertheless, when King Merinard's people are released and brought here in the future, they will also be protected here for a certain period of time, so stockpiling is not only to prepare for battle, but also to regain the power of such liberated people.

"Koske, are you there?

Along with a voice that rolled the bell when the conversation broke down, Isla peered at her face from the door. According to Cubi and Indi just now, this Isla is after me too...

"Koske?"

"No, it's nothing. What's the matter with you?

"The magic stone engine has been designed. This time, it's self-confidence."

"Well, don't jump out of it. The question is whether it will be properly registered."

"This time it's okay. Come here."

"Okay. Then I'll go."

The men will send me out in reply to each one. Grabbing the hem of my clothes like that, Isla started pulling me toward her lab. I don't have to pull it like that. I wonder if this is what the Cubs were after.

Walking with her neck tilted, Isla looked back and leaned again.

"What's wrong?

"... no, it's nothing."

There's nothing I can do about it. She said that we would discuss it between women and suddenly there would be no problem. Let's start by enjoying our comfortable relationship without much concern. Mm-hmm.
