The Road to One Day Be the Strongest
To Moriguchi, 002
That day.
We were gathered in front of the carriage.
"So, what is it all of a sudden, Kuse?"
That's what your chef asks.
Quickly pressed up glasses glow hard and tell us that he is upset that he was called in early in the morning.
Your chef - of the seventy-three glasses, the command tower of this party.
And he's also someone who had a lot of respect for silver. I guess that's why you're so upset.
That's why.
"... of silver, you may have figured out where my people are"
"- Huh!?"
The words had a huge reaction.
"Oh, that's..."
"At the request of Mr. Elgrid. Kyoka and the others are likely to be there. Go to that place and ask them how they intend to revive the silver."
First one.
The existence of such a tomb means that silver is in a situation of death and some kind of incident prevents resuscitation by the power of the Reaper.
I knew that far.
And from here is Mr. Elgrid's reasoning.
"It is also clear from the fact that the tombstone is made of blood metal that they are alive. And I'm sure Kyoka-san knows that we're concerned about the death of silver and that we want to help."
And on top of that, it means nothing's interfering with us.
"- Which means that we were not counted on at all when silver was resurrected."
Out-of-the-box warnings.
Everyone unexpectedly opens their eyes to it and grips their fists.
Even we've worked hard, we're getting stronger.
Still, we don't like the current state of affairs that we can't rely on - our weakness.
So I stopped waiting for you to rely on me anymore.
"So this time, I just stopped waiting. I don't know. We have to take action. It's not going to change forever."
It doesn't change the fact that you can't rely on it.
No matter how long, I can't keep up with the silver back.
"... but I don't know where my brothers are"
Rin's voice sounds with her face down.
Silver - the exact location of the silver companions.
The silver clan home that is most likely in the Wang capital. But the place is difficult to identify, and the only one I can go to, Mr. Elgrid, also tells me that he would have gone once but was deserted.
And the second most likely place was here, and if you're not even here...
"Possibility is where he and the others have been once. In it, it is suitable to hide ourselves, even more difficult to reach below ourselves, and the residents are cooperative with the silvers. Where all of them are -"
Yesgins A harbour country where joking religions travel.
Or...
"The only country once ruled by silver - Ulstan, the forest country"
There, they must be there.
Head to Forest Country.
In the meantime, we're going to need a way to get around, but our party is fundamentally, all-ways short of money.
That's why I don't own a carriage.
"Ha!? Ulstan, the forest country!? Why do you have to go to such a tochi crazy country like that if you like it! I don't like us!
"Well, do something about it... Huh!
I was asking my old man in the carriage right now.
I only get transportation from Mr. Ergrid, but anyway, Ulstan, the forest country, has an even worse reputation these days than before.
Because...
"Only the princess and her surroundings still make sense, but otherwise if she elves, she'll solicit it as soon as she meets her eyes!? And that's not all, if she goes like she meets her eyes, she'll always be match-pumped and solicited as a result! That's a magic place over there! We're never going!
- And well, it is like that.
Silver, I want you to say from the bottom of your heart what a joke you've made of your country.
I need him to come back to life for it.
- So I bowed my head.
"... please, I will"
"Oh, hey...... Huh!
If you go by with your head down enough, I'll lower your head as much as I can.
Even if they call me the strongest SSS rank, the head of the next EX rank, I know a lot of them who are stronger than me.
So there's no such thing as pride.
Because if I cared about pride, I wouldn't be able to keep up with him on his back for the rest of my life.
"... oh, shit! I can't believe celebrities like you bowed their heads and still didn't move. Our stock will crash! I'll give you a lift if you want to get to the entrance to Forest Country!
"Oh, thank you!
This old lady is quite famous for traveling around the world, and we've been given rides more than once.
I thought it would be difficult to get familiar with my face all this time, but my grandmother was a good person and really helped me.
"But what can I do for you in that demonic realm? If you have that demonic specialty, at best it's the jail or the crazy elves... and then there will be the patron saint of that country, the Automata."
"... Automata, is it"
- Automata, automatic doll.
Until a while ago there were no such rumors anywhere, but since the information had flown that silver had gone to that country, the information on that automatic doll had also become available again.
Says the patron saint who protects the Forest Nation and.
Rumors are circulating that its power is comparable to that of the Great Devil alone, and that the God-fearing people can retreat on their own, and if that's true, it's like an ancient weapon, or an artifact made by the gods, or...
"... because I may know someone in that country. And I'm really interested in that automata."
"Hmmm......? I don't really pursue it, but do you really like staying in a country like that, or are you a follower of that religion? Either way, it's not a lot of shit."
- Right.
I laughed, but I was just a little bit interested in that automata.
A few days after that,
We came all the way to the entrance to Ulstan, Forest Country.
The entrance, because it's a forest entrance, to be exact.
- Ulstan, the forest country.
A small settlement nestled in a forest that serves as a juncture. Is the population the same as, or less than, one city?
Still, it has the name of a country only because every elf is quite combative.
At the entrance of such an elf forest...
"Welcome aboard."
One priest waited, bowing his head respectfully.
"Uh... who is it?
"Oh, I'm late for this."
The priest with his face up laughs nicely.
Though I was the one who unexpectedly liked that uncontrolled grin.
"First of all, I am the king of the harbour country of Aussie, and our supreme priest of Yesginism, and Lord Ginn has casually called me 'Father Fucking', etc."
"" "Ugh!?" "
Strange screams leak unexpectedly.
than that the king of the harbour country Aussie was a Jesuit.
"Oh, of that religion, Sa, Sa, even the High Priest!?"
Your old man yells with his face bright blue.
In contrast, the priest laughs huffily and joyfully.
"Well, the Yesgins who worship us are a bunch of lunatics from the rest of us. I was well aware that if I said the High Priest or something like that, it would be such a reaction."
"" "Ugh!?" "
Weird scream that leaks again.
Now...
"No way......, I can't believe there was a Yesginist that made sense"
"Sa, about one in the boulder..., I think he's here...?
"I hear you, cook, Kouri."
A priest who comes to name me with a full smile.
Unexpectedly embarrassed, I can stare and suck at them both.
"Ko, you idiot!
"" Shh, excuse me... "
Turning to the fearful priest, there's no longer a priest there.
"Don't worry, I'm used to it."
The chill ran through my back to that voice I heard from behind me.
Two voices echo in my head as I accidentally get stiff.
"... who is this priest? I didn't see any movement at all."
The owner of that voice is Blue Dragon.
I also thought about naming it like Gin is giving it to "White Tiger" or "Xuanbu" a few times, but every time he refuses and still calls it Blue Dragon.
'Huh... Oh, my God. Well, it's creepy as it was when I put that guy in front of me. The boulder only worships that man. "
Now it's nine tails.
After that, Nine Tails were absorbed into me by the hands of silver. Both I and Jiu-Tao used to belong to "Jiu-Tao," which was fine, but later Aolong taught me about the power of "Energy Drain," which I sweated cold.
Ton ', I feel like I'm getting slapped in the back, and I look back, and I still don't see a priest there.
I just hear his voice coming from somewhere.
"Now, if you'll excuse me here. Kyoka-san originally asked me to explain to you, and I've opened up my country."
"Shh, description...?
- Kyoka, and.
Enquire as you open your eyes to the name.
"Explain, is it a message rather than a"
Yes, he was the last to correct just a little.
"'I'm not going to rely on you. I'm not going to teach you anything. If you still want to come, I won't stop you. If I could break through that forest, I'd be talking about it."
That's what I left out, and I couldn't hear him.
