Though the Gnomes were waiting armed when they felt a crisis in strange armies as they approached the settlement of Gnome,

"Long time no see! How have you all been?

and welcomed him by disarming him to a masal that would release openly and well.

"It's time to put the land around here together and turn it into a country or something. It's hard to defend each settlement. Right? Every time someone comes like this, I have to be alert to everything.

"Sure... so who's going to wake up the country?

"Well......... aren't you a massal?

"But I say no! I mean, there's no way a little citizen like me could be the representative of the country!

"Am I the only one who wants to say what a little citizen is?

Grandpa Botz appears on a small run from inside the settlement as Zag blurs with his ragged face.

"It's been a long time, I thought I didn't see it properly. Bringing someone unusual like this is insane in the same good way.

"What a breed to turn to this little citizen!

"Masal... little citizen stories are good enough now, huh?

"I see... well, I'll think about my next story.

"No, you don't have to think about it!?

"You lords are utterly... so what the hell is this group?

Until Grandpa Botz frightened me into interacting with Zag.

"This group is a unit of the Kingdom of Greitas, which was sent to the King's Capital of Bazelarca not long ago.

"Huh! No way war!?

"No, I'm not. The king capital of Bazelarka fell by demons. Anyone who misses the escape is wiped out.

"No way! I can't believe the king capital of a country is going to fall... so, the demon!

"Masaru killed them all... every building in the King's capital. Now the king's capital is more of a wasteland than a wasteland.

"It's... it's a masal. It's not too much, is it?

"...... shut up.

Massal turns that way and rejects the conversation.

"Well, there didn't seem to be any survivors, and it seems to me that Massal's deeds made sense just because demons like destroying the king's capital didn't run away.

For once, I won't forget to include a follow up zag.

"So what did your troops come here to do?

"That's Masaru............ get in a good mood... at all. What, you actually cared unexpectedly?

"Naturally! I was concerned about safety at first, but you can't keep saying it like even the Demon King went through it and make me feel bad!

"Oh? Did you care about the safety aspect... for example?

When Zaag asks, not to mention surprised, even Grandpa Botz peeks intriguingly.

"Well, the first condition is not to miss adversarial organisms. For this reason, I contemplated the technique of defeating all demons simultaneously… that is the new, magically extensive way to explode and defeat the target.

"... as a result of safety considerations, right?

"Think about the dangers of missing it, don't you think there's no choice but to do some damage? Besides, there's no survivors in there, is there? If you think about letting him get away with it and making sure he goes stabbing Todome, even if it's a little excessive, you'll get the answer, right? Which is more dangerous?

"Don't feel better about an excessive attack when they say that...

"Besides, I'm pretty sure the Wang Capital building collapsed, but have you ever thought about the high technology being used there?

"High technology? It takes a lot of skill to crumble the King's capital from castle to castle in the first place...

"Wait... collapse every castle and town in Wang Du? Even Warcraft can't get that far!?

Grandpa Botts solidifies with a stunned look.

"Besides, old man... he said everything collapsed in one blow.

"One shot!?

Exactly when my open mouth didn't spread, I just froze with my big mouth open.

"But, you know, there wasn't supposed to be a phenomenon of haz happening... only rubble and dust fell on the crumbling king capital and castle towns, and later only rubble remained.

"…… the phenomenon of haz that happens……?

"Oh, there's a court magician in the kingdom of Greitas too, isn't there? I heard the magician was good at the magic of explosions? Imagine what happens when that magician blows up the house?

"You're gonna blow it, aren't you? So the house burned down...... right! Flames!"

"Exactly! Not causing secondary damage such as flames after defeating the target demon with a single blow on that scale! (all buildings collapsed... boso)"

"How could that happen...

The two of them were surprised and reassured that they were taking proper care of their safety. Even Masaru doesn't like to be criticized, and he's just a cute person who we are.

"So, Zag should meet and greet Grandpa Botz properly. This is a settlement that serves as a base for agriculture. It's hard to negotiate with someone you don't know when you trade.

"Wait a minute! Why me? I'm just a knight!?

"Well, you have to report to the king that there's a settlement like this and I'm on my hands and there's a chance of a deal, right?

"Yes, but...

"Well, thank you! So when you're done saying hello, you can move to the King's Capital, but don't forget to come by because I'll personally give Zag a souvenir before you leave. I'll say hello to the chief.

"... I have a bad feeling about something...

"It's my fault! Be sure to come!

With anxiety on Masaru's back as he walked away, he returned to sanity and greeted Grandpa Botz, who was still hardened.

"Masal... we're done face-to-face, right?

"Oh, come here. I'm ready for a souvenir.

"What is a souvenir...... this!?

"Yes! Is this Ant Crust for a year? and a Trent wood bow with worm strings.

"... where's Othi? It's too matmo for a Masal souvenir and I'm too happy...

"...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

"No, no! I'm so happy! Thank you!

Express your gratitude in haste to the Massal of the Zito Eye.

"So... what's this crust... for a year? How many are there?

"Uh............ about 600 sheets? Perhaps 200 pieces at a time.

"How many of these crusts are you willing to use a year... if you have 5-6 you can do an easy light armor...

"I know... well, if you have any excess, make it an appropriate addition to the cost of the expedition.

"... that's your destiny. But, well, that helps… this will narrow the space for the carriage home, but it's going to give you a little bonus.

"... and there's three olive pickles in barrels outside, so take them! Because it made it look good for the sake.

"Pickled olives? Yeah, it's a new specialty here. I have salted olive fruit soaked in olive oil, I'm sure you'll love it!

When he heard about the space of the carriage on his way home, Masaru added a souvenir as if it were going to be more impossible, but Zag instructed his men to load the carriage without questioning his preference.

"Bye! I'll see you around!

"Right, the next time I see you, I'm sure Zag's an ambassador! Yo, show up! And this is a letter to Axion, so definitely give it to me directly. Don't forget, there are reports about the statue of the goddess you were asking for!

"Whoa... I don't know why this one seems to be following me, but I'll definitely give it to you directly.

"Well, I pray you'll be safe… go home with care!

"Ooh, bye!

The head of the Massal and Gnome drops off the Zags, who don't go away with their hands waved loudly until they're much smaller.

"Oh, Masaru... what's in that letter?

"Of course, it's Zarg's ambassador's letter of recommendation.

"The Lord is evil, too.

"I'm with the chief who's aware and won't say anything.

Haha, it's still a long way off for Zag to know the thoughts of the two laughing at each other.
