The carriage carrying Kagya, Aishera and Naki was well on the detour.
Aishera served as lord, and Kagya took a nap on the roof of the wagon.Naki sat at the back of the carriage and was watching his surroundings.
Naki moves to his seat and tells Aishera.
"Thank the Dragon Clan for not having a Magic Beast.Thanks to this green emerald and the scarcity of beasts, many animals are breeding. "
"It's a good thing we don't have beasts... but animals are dangerous."
"Well, I'm thinning out hunting.Well... the Dragons hunt strong beasts and don't look at animals.In addition, the Elves can't hunt without the permission of the Dragons, so the animals are breeding. "
"Oh dear... the beasts aren't the only ones ruining the forest."
"Ah, well, I don't have any trouble with prey like this!!
Short arrows fly with whistle signals from the arrow hanging on Naki's waist.
Then an arrow stuck in the head of the boar that jumped out of the side of the carriage and penetrated it.
"Well, dinner's fine with him."
"Excellent work. Nice arm."
"Well, anybody can train for over a hundred years."
"Nhh... what?What are you doing here?
Kaguya wakes up and looks out of the carriage roof.
Long silver hair dripped and blocked Aishela's vision.
"Hey, I can't see."
"Nhh... I'm sleepy.Hey, what about dinner?
"Either you're sleepy or hungry... okay.Help me dismantle the boar.If you dismantle it, you'll wake up sleepy. "
"Eh ~... it's annoying"
"Absolutely. Let's camp around here for now."
Having taken out the boar, today's journey came to an end.
◇◇◇◇◇◇
Ah, it was delicious.
"Mm-hmm. It was salty.Nostalgic... when I camped in a knighthood, expedition, etc., it was definitely a whole barbecue of boar and deer "
"You guys are amazing... the two of you almost ate it."
In the evening, the three of you surround the fire and finish the whole boar grill.
Kaguya sucked on the bones and said to Naki with satisfaction.
"You're just a snack, right?We're fuzzy, huh?
"Mm-hmm. Meals are important.There's nothing wrong with eating a lot. "
Really? Well, I wasn't wrong about the elf snack... but I was wrong about the idea that there would be enough preserved food left. "
Naki removes the smoke pipe and smokes.
Aishera took out a small bottle of wine from her luggage.
Naki, how about a drink?
"Oh, that's nice.Wine?
"Oh, I bought a lot of them in the border town."
"I want to have a snack... uhh, that's good.I really don't like alcohol. "
"Fu, child tongue."
"Shut up. Ah, there's a river nearby, right?I'm going to take a bath. "
"Be careful, there's no beast, but there's a lot of nocturnal snakes."
"Yes."
Kagya takes her clothes and towels to the nearby river.
Looking backwards, Eichella and Naki had already begun to serve alcohol.
"I'm so close... well, I wonder if you're happy to have a drinking buddy."
I only drink alcohol, Aishera.
I can drink flare. However, I order not only alcohol, but also fruit water and unusual items that I have never seen at a town tavern.
I can't drink a prime.But in the past, when I got drunk, I had the eye shell covered, and I haven't drunk it with the eye shell since.At that time, Aishera said, "Attempted!Even more so because she was shouting.
I can't drink Kurone. Completely downstairs, they prefer drinks that cat Wesen prefer: water, fruit water, and snail water.
I don't want to drink kagya.It's a simple reason I don't like the taste.
Naki appeared there.Aishera seems happy to drink with Naki.
Well, I don't care.
Kagya arrives at the water field.
It was a beautiful stream.Lighted by the moonlight, the water is sparkling.
Undressed and equipped, the naked Kagya hurried to the river.
"I stung... nh, but it feels so good"
The river is quite deep.
Kagya slowly goes to the middle of the river.Just deep enough to lose sight of your chest, it feels like you're soaking in the bath.
Kaguya washes her body, washes her hair, and tries to swim a little.
"Nhah ~... the moon is beautiful"
Floating on your back, you can see the full moon.
The fairy tale that gave Kaguya's name is Kaguyashime.The moon is the one with the sea lion.
"I wonder if my feet will get there."
Kaguya has never tried to see how far her feet stretch.
I tried it up to a few kilometers, but it never stretched any further.
Maybe it will reach the moon.If it reaches the moon... we may be able to meet Kaguyashime.
"Hmm, it looks like a fool.I'm not going that far ─ ─ ─ "
The next moment, Kaguya's body sank.
"You!? Ngaboo...!?
My body sank.
Suddenly I was dragged into the water.
And then I realized... something was tangled up in Kagya's right leg.
"Boo... Boo... Boo boo boo boo boo!!
You've got a lot of nerve.Yes, shout in the water.
Kaguya stretches her left leg out to the bottom of the water, where nothing is tangled.Then I stretched my left foot to the axis.Then Kaguya's body comes out of the water... with something wrapped around her right leg.
Then, he shrunk his left foot to the surface of the water, swinging his right foot with thoughtful stretching, and hit the nearby rock.
"Ngah!?
"Eh... what is this?"
Together with the moaning, the wound leg separated.
It was like a girl... a snake.
◇◇◇◇◇◇
I'm home.
"Oh, are you back... ah?
"All right, next time I'm going to take a shower... hey, what's that?"
Kagya dragged the Stunned Raider Snake Woman back to Aishera and the others.
The light of fire finally revealed the whole snake woman.First of all, the upper body was a human woman.But the lower body is different. Her lower body had a snake-like tail.
Naki soon understood.
"You're a serpent.Why are you here? "
"You don't know?
"Oh, it's a rare species living in Green Emerald."
"To Green Emerald?
"That's right. Green Emerald is the species with the most elves and dragons, but subpopulations like the Snake and Spider tribes live in hiding.There are also beasts and subhumans. "
Kaguya throws a snake bitch.
Then the snake woman woke up.
"Uuuu ~ nn... ah"
Ah, you're up.
"Eh... ah, what?Who is this... eh?
"You sold me a fight.Now, shall we continue?
"Hih... chichi, no.I'm just hungry, so I'll take the fish.... "
"I'm not a fish."
"Eh... well, that's what I was thinking."
"Atashi. So, who are you?Are you having a fight?
"I won't!!I am the Sheza of the Snake Clan.The dragon tribe attacked me, so I ran away... and I was hungry, so I took it with me... "
Naki says, lighting a cigarette.
"Running away from the Dragons, huh?
"Yes... recently, I heard that the Dragons are circling the Green Emerald to capture a species that is likely to be a force for battle... and came to our village."
"... Ishera, Kagya, can I ask you more?
"I don't mind."
"Atashi, I think I'm getting excited!
"That's why. Miss, tell me what happened."
"Ha, yes...."
And the Kagyas were with the Kagyas, and they put their necks into trouble.
