The Branded Female Fencer

To Yugdrasil's question, Alphilis was honestly eating face to face. But the yugdrasil of the day is serious in itself, and it doesn't seem like it's willing to give in.

Alphilis answered the question with strange emotions.

"Well... I'm a woman too, so maybe she wants to have a baby someday. But I still can't imagine that, and I guess it's a long way off. We need to find someone who can do that first."

"Right. That's a very common opinion."

"I'm sorry, you're here."

He looked mumbled not knowing how many times Alphilis would be today, but Yugdrasil laughed thinly, and now tightened his expression in an instant.

"No, that's fine. It means that even holders of flexible thinking like you are no different from others on that one point. On the contrary, that's normal."

"? What do you mean?

"One more question before that. Where do you think humans are better than other species?

"... that's hard."

Alphilis was seriously troubled this time. This is an agenda that has once also been debated with Aldrius. where humans are superior to other species. It is no exaggeration to say that humans are now the champions of the continent, even though they were overwhelmingly abused until hundreds of years ago. Elves and seekers, who are supposed to have a race similar to humans but overwhelming power, only live secretly in the corners of the continent. Even in view of the giants and the people of Milius, who excel in motor skills, as well as all kinds of peoples leading up to subhumans such as Hobbits and Marshes, and Oaks and Goblins, man occupies an overwhelming position on the continent just to say he is a winner.

Aldrius said the ability to interact and cooperate with the factors that made it so. More importantly, its spirituality is needed. Alphilis used to think so, too. But now, Alphilis has another idea. Maybe it's because I've met a wide variety of people on my journey.

That 's--

"Diversity..."

"Well, diversity."

"Yes, diversity."

Alphilis succeeded in finding the right words to put his thoughts in a nutshell. Diversity of people. Yes, I feel that word suits me well.

"Human diversity is wonderful and diverse. With all this number, and the like-mindedness of those who belong to the same community, no one presents the same face or thought at all. That is even true of the Arnelian Church, where Miriazal exists as an absolute bishop. Even in her former pursuit of the same ideals and ideals, the means are completely different. This diversity of thought may be the weapon as a human race"

"What about that heart?

"Change Resistant"

Alphilis responded instantly. Yugdrasil snorts at the words as well.

"Um, I agree. The more diverse it is as a species, the more resistant it is to changes in the environment. For example, even creatures who cannot live without water are a huge difference between a race that always dies when it loses 10% of its body's moisture and a range of 5 to 30%. Naturally, the latter is more resistant to changes in the environment. One day suddenly, even if the nearby water field dries up, it can survive to some extent"

"That's true. But how does that relate to the question I asked you earlier?

"Right. Humans, for example, can leave their children with any race. So are the beasts, and so are the elves and everything goblins. No, this is actually the case with other species, but from a long-term perspective, you could replace it with saying that a species is surviving that is capable of mating with other species.

There used to be many other races, but in the last millennium the numbers dropped sharply. They are nothing but inhospitable with other races. Dortmund, once a lifeless servant, is also a subhuman said to be a rare species. Did you know that?

"No, I didn't know that."

"That's all this millennium has been a turbulent time. Sift from continent to continent and leave the strong. That was exactly the time. Paradoxically, as survived in this age, a race called man may have adapted his abilities. Or did they make you?"

"That's a weird way to put it. It's not like someone manipulated us to make it right for our time."

The alphilis was meant to be a bit of a tear, but the look on Yugdrasil's face was serious in itself. Alphilis with one answer on that look.

"Yugd... no way"

"You can't say this from me any more. But let me tell you another fundamental fact. Although there are differences in the extent of dialect on this continent, there is almost one language used by every race. What does this mean?"

"!? Hey, that's... no, that's stupid?

Did Alphilis find out what Yugdrasil was trying to say, or he was inadvertently standing up for that stunner. Yugdrasil snapped as he looked worried about the alphilis.

"... tour the ruins, Alphilis. There comes a time when you have to know the answer. It's still early, but I'm sure that time will come for you. Above all, your mission is supposed to be. The road opens before you. It's not the others, it's before you, and only after you walk.

First of all, the land of the north. There will be a first answer there. "

"Yugdrasil! You, what do you know?

"When I get one end of that answer, I reappear before you. And you've already seen all the answers. Oranzeble realizes that. That's why we took action."

Yugdrasil's appearance softly diminishes. Apparently, he's going to disappear from this place. That's the same with Alphilis' body. The metastasis has already begun, but there is not even any indication that the magic will converge.

Alphilis screamed his best while Yugdrasil was in sight.

"Wait, Yugdrasil! Who are you!

"I 'know everything'. When you touch one end of it, I pray you take a different path from the Orange Bull. Farewell, then. Oh, and..."

Yugdrasil snapped at the end of the day, but wondering what Alphilis' vision was in the light with the words, the figure of Alphilis was once again in the corner of Arnelia, near the residence of the Seekers.

Conversations with Yugdrasil always bring strange remnants to Alphilis. Alphilis was repulsing Yugdrasil's words.

"Ask Muscade first? Watch out for Arnelia's changes, huh? What the hell is wrong with you? It's refreshing to say all the thoughtful things, that girl."

Alphilis roared like that in the corner of the transferred expanse, eventually stretching the grass back to the pillow and taking a good rest.

And Yugdrasil was alone in exchange for his own workshop. Unlike regular magicians, Yugdrasil doesn't build workshops that enhance their own magic. Nor is it intended for research. He just goes back to the workshop to meditate. It was a murderous room there, just with Notice trapped in the crystal.

"Ugh, it's hard to have a dialogue amidst constraints. I hope it gets through to you."

"(Were you going to see Alphilis)"

A voiceless Notice talks to me in a nutshell. He can't even move his eyes, which is the means he recently remembered. That's just what they say is the smartest of true dragons. Yugdrasil did not intend to seal it so that it could do so.

At first I thought about making the seal even stronger, but these days I'm wondering if that would be good too. Either way, nobody can come here but themselves.
