The picturesque rice cakes are delicious today

"In other words, when a man enters the pond, his body stops moving.""....."

"We didn't have a problem, though." I'm a little surprised. "

Therefore, everyone came up from the water and shared information.I don't know if there's anything in the women's group that's in the water.

"I'm in trouble. If it's the work of the Spirit Lord, I'll let you know what happened, but even if you call me, there's no response..."

If that happens...... I'm going to dive.

And the conclusion came lightly.Yes, that means that Mr. Interlia will try to dive into the underworld.

"It's lighter than Ed, but, well, I'll be able to dive enough into the water, too.I'd like to leave it to you, Mr. Tougo. Are you sure? "

"Ah, yes, but safety first, please."

Interlia-san is motivated and brave, but she's safe.... so I decided to draw a rope and let it be Interria-san's lifeline.When pulling up, our plaster statue, Lao Cres, pulls up the rope and pulls up Interior.

Well then, let's do it!

Good luck, Interlia!

... so Interlia-san jumped into the water.With Carnelia's cheers, I went deeper and deeper into the water.

The water is so clear that I can see how far Interlia-san has dived.Interlia went on and on... and grabbed the sealed jewels and the pedestal!

Alright, let's pull!

At once, Lao Cres pulled the rope and pulled up Interior.

... I was supposed to.

"... what is this?"

Gishi and the rope twitched. I saw Lao Cres' muscles moving as she gripped the end of the rope.

"Hey, hey, what's up? What's going on?"

"I don't know, but... something's dragging me."

There seems to be a lot of strength in Laocles' body.You can tell by looking at the uplifted muscles, the sweat floating on Lao Cres' skin, and the rope that's pinned and tensioned.

... the rope stretched straight into the water... and seemed to be gradually drawn into the water.

Huh, is there something there?!

"I don't know... but it's pretty strong...!"

Although Lao Cres was desperately resisting even though she was out of breath, she still had the same strength to pull in the rope for each interior.

"Ahhh, damn it, I don't know, but I'll help you!"

Then, Faye grabbed the rope that Laocles pulled and towed it together.

Me too!

Lila also stuck together and towed together.

"I... I'm sorry, but I don't think I can be very helpful..."

"I'll give you my backup, too!" Good luck! Good luck! "

Ms. Crore and Carnelia were supportive. Well, in the right place.

... again, I'm a known type after I joined the tug of war.So, I'll do what I can only do.

"... um, give it back."

I'm going to talk to the water.

The surface of the water swayed slightly. It's a loose movement where plenty of water is lifted and swayed slightly from the bottom.However, I understand that in order to produce this slow movement, we need a tremendous amount of force to move the water of an unbelievable weight.

"He is a child of the forest. Give him back."

But I can't leave here. [M]Mr. Interlia is a child of the forest.I just got married and I'm happy... I want to be happy in the forest forever.

That's why I won't give it to you, Mr. Interahamwe.I will never forgive you if you want this pond so badly!

"If you don't return it, I'll put all the paint I have in this pond and make it a ridiculous color!"

I tried to complain about the threat that the pond might dislike.

The pond shakes with a puff, a puff, a puff.I saw the movement of the pond in a bit of a panic, and I was convinced that this would work.

And to show my determination not to threaten you, I took out the paint tube and opened the lid on the pond...

... so Lao Cres fell backwards with a lot of momentum.

Apparently, she was no longer able to pull Interlia into the pond.

I rushed to Laocles and pulled the rope with him. [M]Then the rope was easily pulled up... and Interlia-san came out on the water!

”Puhaha!...... Kheh, I've had a terrible time...... Kheh”

Interlia coughs a little and comes up to the shore.In his hand was a firmly sealed gemstone and a pedestal.

Interlia, are you okay?!

When Carnelia rushed over, Interlia immediately smiled and shook Carnelia's hand.

Crore takes a towel, wraps it around Interia, and she looks fine for now.

... so...

Will you come out soon?

Once again, I speak to the water of the pond.... and then...

Nnh, nnh, nnh.

The water in the pond stretches... and gradually forms a shape as it shakes and trembles.

The water that is shaped is transparent everywhere.Even though it glistens in the sun, it doesn't know how deep it is, and it's like a sight that doesn't have any reality.

And it eventually takes on a solid form.

"... it's a horse."

It's a horse.

The water came to us on foot, in the shape of a horse!

I thought maybe a horse could talk a little, so I stepped forward, and the horse made of water was quiet in front of me. [M]

"... not only Interlia-san and Carnelia-san, but everyone here is a child of the forest, so I won't give it to you"

Therefore, I declare that as soon as possible. Then, the water horse makes a sound like "puff-puff...".... Huh? What was that, a squeaking? It resembles the sound of gargling, and the sound of pebbles sinking into the pond.... you sound like a strange horse.

"I'm sorry I tried to take the sealed jewel with me, but if I don't do something about it, it's going to burn here, so I want to do something about it. Okay?"

Continuing to talk about the sealed jewels, the water horse heard or not, walked loosely around me, and then began to smell me.

Um, are you listening to me?

As for me, I don't really know if this horse knows a lot or if he's not there, so I can't help it. [M]Then, without worrying about me, the water horse turned behind me and squeaked... then it deformed and dived right at my feet!

From there it was in no time.My body was poured into the water, lifted and floated, and the water horse returned to the shape of a horse...

"... hehe?"

The water horse that put me on his back keeps going back to the pond.

"W-Wait, wait! I can't!"

I tried to get off the horse, but this horse, dexterously... deformed part of my body and grabbed me by the ankles!

Moreover, my legs and waist were also taken into the water, and I couldn't move.

Even though the water is just wrapped around me, I can't get out of it in a strange way, and I just can't get out of it.

"Hey, hey, hey! Where are you taking the cane?"

Faye once attacked the water horses with the fire, but the water horses walked away with a fine face.

"Wait! No! Don't take the cane with you!"

Carnelia's Phoenix pokes a water horse with tremendous force, but it doesn't work on water horses that have no substance.

At last, the water horse approaches the pond...

"Hey, you're telling me to wait!"

Alicorn and LaoCles intercepted me... and thundered into the pond in front of the horse, not the horse.

You're surprised, puffy!and the water horse screams, otherwise, it returns to the shape of the water.Then I was thrown out on the spot, and Laocres caught me. Thank you.

The water horse went back into the pond as soon as he got back into the water.And for a while, the pond was wobbly, trembling like a trembling body...

"... do you want another shot?"

The low voice of Laocles is plumping!And so, she raised her voice like a scream.

...... What is this spirit?

"No, I feel like another creature..."

"Hey! We may be the children of the forest!"It's Mori himself!That's why we can't do it, but it doesn't make sense that cane is good! "

Faye is scolding the water horse.The water horse is somehow sitting in front of Faye, nodding his head, and giving off an atmosphere of preaching.

... the water horse said, "Okay, come out again because I need to talk to you!Come on, let's thunder again!Laocles and Alicorn! 'As soon as Faye said it, she came out of the pond again, so I will preach as it is. "I don't know..."

"... so what the hell are you?" Is it a spirit? "

"Um, Faye, maybe he's not."

And now that I'm talking about the identity of this pond called the water horse... I'm going to try to pinch my mouth a bit.

“It's not spirited. Maybe it's not a competitor.”

"Oh... oh, I see. Does that mean he's just a monster?"

"Perhaps... it's like a watchman prepared to retaliate against those who came to protect the seal."

"No, it doesn't look like he has that kind of intelligence."Maybe it's something that's pretty powerful, because it's been here for a long time. ”

According to Lao Cres' reasoning, this pond, even though it was well-appointed, was burned by Crore.I see, I've lived here all my life, quite strong, something... "

"But, when I was here, it wasn't like this!"I used to play in the water with Interia, but it wasn't dragged into the water! "

"... there was a time when I felt something in my gaze."Well, I was convinced that the fairy around here was falling in love with Master Carnelia... but perhaps there was already a monster in this pond from that time on? "

Hmm, as far as Carnelia and the others were concerned, I was there, but I didn't particularly attack them.

I don't know. Did you really hate being taken with a seal?Or is it just because Interlia-san dived so deep that you decided to catch him? "Hmm..."

... while I think about it, I may not be able to stop thinking, but I'll look around for a moment.Everyone else is looking at the water horse or peeking at the pond... but I feel like something's moving and I'm looking at you.

It was the seal.I thought I saw something glowing in the seal, so I took a closer look...

"Oh, no!" What are you doing! "

Towards the seal, the arm of water stretched out from the pond!So I grab the arm of the water.

... and then...

"What are you doing, you rude!" It hurts! Don't grab it! "

A girl made of water came out of the water.

... wow.
