The Traveling Hero Won’t Let the Innkeeper’s Son Escape

(Dad and Mom are going to believe Alec's words somehow, but Honza is going to tell me... the village chief won't be able to move without proof... at least if Rihala and the others have stolen the books...)

If you keep the books, it will be easy for you to trust the village chief who is aware of Honza's evil.Then we can solve the villagers' misunderstandings and ensure Alec's safety.

"Hmm...."

"Lou, can I have some water in the river?"

"Okay, but wait a minute, there's a glass here..."

Ruth said so, and Rihala and the others peered into the big tree where the dishes were hidden - something unexpected was found there.

I notice that there is a different thickness booklet from the list of ingredients they used to take out of this tree.

Ruth rushed his body into the tree and looked at the thick booklet.

(This is... the back of the books!)

What was hidden in the tree was the back of the ledger Honza was looking at in the office.

(I don't know where the stash is, and Honza must have been looking for it.Oh yeah! Rihalas hid it here with the ingredient list!)

You wouldn't expect a man like Honza to have important books in the trees.It seems to have been elevated, close to the harvest, but not found.

"Alec, can I have this?"

I called Alec, who had finished drinking water, and pulled out what was hidden in the tree.

(Back of the book, ingredient list, and ruby products are also available...!)

Rihala and the others stole not only the back books, but also the ruby in a fake bag labeled "Console" as evidence.

"Alec, with this, we might be able to meet Rihala and Noah!"

"Really!?"

"But Alec has to deliver this to the village chief."

"... to this place?"

Alec's eyes shake in the word “village chief.”

"Alec, I really need to talk to the village chief to help them."

……

"Alec, can you do it?"

I asked Alec how he was, and Ruth ran into doubt, but I thought about it and changed my mind.

"No, Alec can do it. So do it, Alec...!"

In Ruth's words, Alec cried before saying, "If I talk to the village chief, I won't be able to see Ruth." But he was slightly scared. The light in his eyes was strong.

"... I can do it."

"That's right, Alec! You could have asked the angry Honza, right?You just got away from the guy, didn't you?Alec can do it. "

Alec's abilities are not the same as those of ordinary children.You can do anything you want.

All you need is courage.

"I'll do it! I'll get this to you!"

"Alec, well said! Okay, let's just keep going around the mountain and go straight to the village chief's house..."

"- It's water!"

As soon as Ruth and the others were about to move out, a man was brought out from the woods to the river by a merchant.He's tired of chasing Alec, or he's approaching the river for water, and he starts drinking with his face on the river's water without noticing Ruth and the others.

"Ah... Alec, I'm running away now."

"Uh-huh...."

Loose tried to escape while the men were unaware.

Ah!

Alec, whose feet were in danger when he turned to the man, dropped the backbook he had on the spot.

"Hmm? Ah!"

Alec hurried to pick up the books, but naturally the man noticed Alec.

"Blonde hair, green eyes, you're a kid named Alec who was at Honza's place.Were you here? "

As soon as the man got up, he walked towards Alec.Apparently Honza told me what Alec looked like, and I didn't even suspect him.It would be impossible to deny it.

"Oh, you're so cute.Likes, likes ~ "

A man approached with a standing smile like a birdskin and a gesture like an animal.I can only say that the state is disgusting.

"Uu....."

Alec also felt unusual discomfort in the way he looked, making his face twitch more than ever before.

"Come here, let's play with your uncle."

"No, no, no, no! It's coming!"

"Ah, wait! Don't run away, here!"

Alec shouted as loudly as he could and jumped into the forest behind him.Continue down the path you've come here all at once.

"Ah, Alec, Alec, wait, it's not that way!The way is wrong! You're going back to church! "

I chased after him in a hurry, but Alec ran desperately, and he couldn't hear me and didn't follow Ruth's instructions.Hurry around and try to get the road right, but no matter how much you run, you don't chase it behind you.

(Hold on, Alec's legs are too fast!)

There may be some stupid elements to the fire, but Alec's legs are too early to do so. I can't catch up at all.

"Ruth, Ruth."

Alec went down the mountain all at once to return the way he came.When he stepped behind the church, he jumped out of the square and rolled.

I'm sure they were going to the Browns - back to Ruth.But before that, another man stood in his way.

"I knew you were here, Alec."

Hih

Honza wasn't the only one in front of me.

"At last, you're soft."

"He stole the priest's precious paperwork that year!"

"Get him!"

"Ah...."

When Ruth finally caught up, there were a lot of adults in the square.Everyone is staring at Alec as he shows up.

(I knew you were the first to hit me...!)

Honza gathered the villagers while Alec was running and told them that he had stolen and fled.

It seems that there were not many people who doubted the words of Honza, who had a priest's title, because Alec was born unknown and some villagers were distrustful.Looking upset, only Ruth's parents and some villagers watched.

"But, Father, isn't there something wrong?Alec is still young, and he doesn't do that in the first place.... "

"Mr. Braw, what are you saying?What he has is the best proof. "

Despite Rosa's doubts, Honza shook her head in a grand manner.Because I think my own persuasion alone will suffice, such as Alec's words, which are distrusted by the villagers.

"It is a scripture that only the priests of the church are allowed to see.Alec took it out on his own and fled.Rihala and Noah, who seems to have been leading the way, have also disappeared since yesterday.I'm sure the three of them were planning to sell it to the next town. "

Honza, who noticed that Alec's stuff was in the books, would blame them not only for the theft, but also for not knowing where Rihala and Noah were trapped.

"What a bad guy!"

Alec, give it back to the priest.

"No, take it away!"

"... uhh, no... Chiga"

Adults are approaching Alec to force him to take the paperwork.

Alec, run!

Ruth called Alec to run, but he knew there was no escape for him surrounded by adults.

(As you wish, Honza!Why can't I do anything at a time like this!)

Even if Ruth tries to scratch the adults apart, he certainly can't touch them.It was when I felt unworthy that I could do nothing.

A high voice echoed through the square.

"Don't touch Alec! Ahhh!"

"--Ho ho!"

An adult reaching out to Alec suddenly became a shrimp sleigh and fell on the spot, accompanied by other nearby villagers.

"Eh... what?"

What?

A sudden event drew the attention of everyone in the square to the person who shouted out loud.I was there.

"Ru... Ruth?"

"Alec, are you okay!?"

It was young Ruth who put his legs on the kicked down adult and flipped over.

When he laughs well, he pulls Alec, who has a grip on the ground, and puts him on the spot.

"Alec, I'm the one who bullied you!We're almost done! Shine on! "

"... Ruth"

Alec was stunned that he didn't understand what was going on, but he finally relieved the expression that was so strong on young Ruth's smile.

"--Rururururururu, Ruth!? What are you doing!?"

But there was a loud voice that resembled Rosa's father's scream, who got out of the situation as soon as possible.

All of a sudden, my son kicked someone down.Though not very powerful, the person who was struck by surprise fell to the ground with others.You will have to scream as a parent.

But young Ruth smiled and wondered if he knew the situation.

"It's a bad man's mess!"

"Wow, what are you talking about?You can't just kick a guy in the air, that's a bad thing - "

"- What's your father talking about?!"

Young Ruth saw not only his father, but also the adults who were approaching Alec.

"How could so many adults have taken care of Alec?!Alec, you're crying!Whatever it is, it's a dumb thing! "

Many villagers took a breath at the words.Adults surround one young child and shout - it is not until young Ruth tells them that they objectively understand what they are doing.It is obvious that Alec is doing too much to the child who is crying, even if it is because Alec is bad.

But not everyone was heartbroken by Ruth's words.

"Ruth, it's Alec I'm sorry about.Alec stole my precious documents.You can't steal it, can you?So bring Alec over here... "

Honza tried to forgive Ruth for hiding Alec.You don't have to look at the expression to despise what happens when you say such a kind word to a child.

--But Ruth wasn't sweet enough to handle it.

"You're the best of evil at bullying Alec! Daniel, Fritz!"

"Whoa!"

─ Aye!

"Uh-oh!? Ugh!"

Suddenly ropes and nets pour down into Honza.It's all a hunting tool.

Covered in a net by surprise, Honza was kicked off by Ruth and rolled to the ground before she panicked.

"Hey hey, Ruth, don't! Hey, Ruth!"

"Daniel!? Temeeee!"

"Fritz!? What are you doing!?"

Not only Rosa, but also Daniel and Fritz's parents screamed in the square.They rushed to the three men in haste, but the children fled and were not caught.

"I caught him because he was a bad guy!"

"Yes, yes!"

"We're Seigi!"

"What are you talking about!?There's no way the priest is the bad guy! "

"What a father!There's nothing wrong with Alec!Then it's his fault! You creepy old man! "

"Ruth, it's Father!"

"I don't know!"

"I don't know, I don't know!"

"Somebody, let me out!"

In Honza, the children who fled, the adults who chased them, and the men who tried to get out of the net, the square sat down.

But that doesn't stop the commotion.

"These grown-ups are messing with Ruth the Giraffe, evil! Do it!"

"Do it! Do it!"

Ouch!

"Wow!"

Wow!

Rosa, who was chasing Ruth and the others, threw a net at him.Even if you don't wear a net from your head, you're thrown at your feet and adults fall.The children who saw it, one after the other, brought ropes and nets from each house and threw them at the unrelated nearby adults.

Because it is a hunting village, nets and strings are kept in each household to rot.Therefore, it does not decrease as much as it is used.It's like hell for an adult.
