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

Edvard, the son of the Spirit King, who had grown up to speak to his young voice, seemed to have remained only at the age of 56, but was now about ten. I felt that my eyes and manners had grown stronger than I had seen before. The pattern of the forehead also has a large branch stretched out beside it.

Kia, the second prince of the kingdom of Ziltania, was taller and his face changed as an adult when he met him. The white exotic clothes suit me very well because my physical condition has improved. But the curious eyes remained intact.

"Ruth, how are you feeling?

"Are you awake? Ruth"

The two lonely faces slowly entered the room without responding to Ruth's words.

As if there had been no disturbance until before opening the door, they came silently to Ruth's side and peeked into their faces together.

"Kia, Ed, maybe I was asleep for a while? Where the hell are we?

There's no change in the amount of magic.

"So Ruth is here, right?

They continued the conversation again without reacting to Ruth's words.

"Ed, can't you hear me?

"There's no change in the situation, so I'm pretty sure we're here."

"Kia, look at me. I'm here."

"But how do you know what happened to Ruth? Didn't he say he couldn't move his body at first?

The conversation continued ignoring Ruth.

"Sure, but I'm sure there's some sort of reaction."

"Both of you, where's Alec? What's going on with Alec?

"Something.”

"I don't know."

"If you don't know, I don't know if Ruth is awake!

"Can't either of you hear me...."

Ruth realized that his voice had not reached them, just as he had called Alec before.

I don't know what's going on with my body, but I can't see my hands or feet in my usual place. It doesn't seem to be in normal condition.

"I don't know what to do, but he's running away from me, saying," I don't know how to treat a small one. "

"Ask Yuan if he can catch you."

"You can't, Yuan. I had it done, but I didn't know what it meant because it was the same type as that guy."

"I see. He's got a few mouths. If this happens again, Karen can come in between us."

"I'd like to, too, Karen, but it looks like they're asking me to do it here and there, and they won't catch me in time."

"I can't use either...."

Are you and Karen... here in Mikana Village?

Yuan and Karen - they are the halves of Elves and Dwarves who met during a group kidnapping in the village of Mikana, a short distance from Hashi village.

Yuan is a man of wild taste and usually quiet, but he is the type to ruin everything if he opens his mouth badly about eroticism. Ruth was sympathetic to the village woman who hated her. Strangely enough, he favoured Ruth, but he couldn't take it because he was worried about Alec, and he spent the rest of his life as a normal friend.

Karen is a childhood friend and friend of Euan's, with short, gentle hair, and a little complicated person named Oneje inside. The level of communication quickly got along with everyone at MAX, and Ruth was in a lot of trouble with Alec. Incidentally, Karen is his name, and his real name is Gordon.

Are we all meeting?

It was also surprising that those two names came out of Kia and Ed's mouth. Of course, Ruth knows, but Kia and Ed never met Yuan and Karen, and never had a name in their correspondence before.

"... what the hell is going on now?

I don't know anything about Alec, about myself, about them gathered for some reason, about where I am now, Ruth, and I have a slight headache. And I can't even ask anybody that.

"Kia, Ed, please, notice me...!

Ruth gave a desperate gaze to the two people who kept talking in front of him.

From the two stories, I understand that there is Ruth around “here.” Neither are they deliberately ignoring it, nor are they seriously failing to understand it.

But Ruth is not normal right now, so he can't communicate his intentions to them well. If you don't tell them that you're awake, this situation will last forever.

"Hey, why don't you ask that old man again about his' reaction '?

"I knew it... but instead of that personality, I'm stroking it."

"I'll help you again! Good luck, Ed!"

"... please don't let go of me because I'm deceived by food."

"Ah, that's because that old man lied about having special dishes...."

The two of them walked away from Ruth while talking like that.

Wait, both of you! Please, just notice!

Ruth shouted desperately at the back of the two who were leaving. But after all, they leave the room unaware.

"... how can you be noticed?"

Instead of moving my hands, feet and body, it was more difficult than I thought to convey my intentions in the current situation where I could not hear my voice. Ruth desperately searched for a way to take action, but nothing would change.

At least with Orha, I might have been able to do something, but it doesn't seem to be close, so what should I do! Ugh... I'm starting to feel sick. "

I feel nauseous even though I don't remember putting food in my mouth because I worried too much.

Ruth was cluttered about what was going on even though there was nothing to spit out, and Kia and Ed entered the room again.

"It's unusual for Ed to forget something."

"Because Kia always says weird things. Do not follow me on the next test."

"Yeah, it's not good! Me too, Ruth...."

"What's wrong?

When Kia suddenly stopped talking to Ed, she rushed to Ruth and turned into an animal. Stay on the bed and approach your nose in front of you.

"What happened suddenly...."

"I smell a little Ruth!

"Eh, what do you mean!?

"Meaning as is! I never smelled Ruth before, but now I do!

Ed rushed over to Kia's voice, who seemed to be able to speak in an animal form. When I pushed Kia with my hand, I stared at Ruth from the front of my eyes.

"... the color of my eyes has changed. It's not purple. Blue - it's Ruth's color! Kia, get Mr. Cyrus!

"Okay!

When Kia jumped out of bed in Ed's voice, she ran down the hallway as fast as the wind.

"Ruth, Ruth, can you see me!? Ed, do you understand?

"Ed? Did you see I was awake?

Heavy footsteps sound from the hallway as you try to talk to Ed. Unlike Kia who ran away, the weighty footsteps eventually opened the door with a kicking momentum as they approached Ruth's room.

"Is it true that Ruth reacted, Ed!?

"Mr. Cyrus."

It was Cyrus who came through the door and was taken care of during the incident that happened in the village before.

Cyrus looked like a big man in his forties.

He was originally a historical figure who died in the war more than a thousand years ago, but was specially crafted by his father, Tomash, who continued to live even after losing his body. The present body is also given by that Tomash, and if you don't feel the need to live, you go into a dormant state.

Thomas said that he had suddenly fallen asleep and didn't know when to wake up next.

Cyrus said he didn't know when to wake up again - but now he comes into the room and looks at Ruth with a big body.

"I think my eyes are blue. What do you think?"

"Oh, you found it. Ed, this must be proof that Ruth's consciousness is back."

Cyrus brutally disturbs Ed's hair. It seems to be a compliment, but for little Ed the power seems to be great, "Don't grab your head. Your brain is shaking! He complained.

"Oops, I'm sorry, it's hard to apply or reduce my strength after all....."

"That's enough. Ruth, hurry!

"Oh, yeah.... Ruth, you know me, Cyrus!

I understand! Perhaps Cyrus can hear me!?

"To tell you the truth, I don't know what you're thinking!

"... no way."

Ruth is shocked by the instant denial of a hopeful question.

But that's what Cyrus bothered to say, because he knew that Ruth would make a mistake.

"But that's only natural. You're unfamiliar with the contents, so you just can't use them. Don't worry, I was like that at first."

"" At first...? "

Ruth 'Possible' came to mind in Cyrus's words.

Memories of your own death.

Live limbs and voices that do not exist.

Yet, there is a clear consciousness.

Recognition of existence from others.

Ruth once saw these elements intertwine.

Ruth turned to “Cyrus”. When he got on the bed, he sat down and looked serious.

"You may have noticed, but let me be clear at the outset. You're just like me now. --A very rare state in which the body is lost, only the soul is caught by magical phantom crystals (phantom cores) and managed to survive the world."

(I knew it....)

I expected it.

Loose seems to have survived the loss of his body. That's why I don't feel my body. That's why I can't hear you. It seems that the magical phantom crystal containing Ruth's soul was attached to Orha.

Thanks to the presence of Orha with the magical phantom crystal, Ruth was able to remain in this world without the ascension of his soul even after losing his body. Orha is not flying on Ruth's side right now because she has removed the Magic Phantom Crystal and returned to her initial state.

"But don't worry. Because my soul is well connected, I can talk and move my body as soon as I train."

How do you do it?

Cyrus nodded slowly as he understood Ruth's doubts. I've been in the same body before, so I guess I can see Ruth's confusion in my hands. It was a pleasant ally for Ruth now.

"I'll teach you, so don't rush. Don't think about anything extra. First of all, focus on moving your body rather than making a sound, which is easier in its present form."

Body?

"I'll start with my right fingertip. Just don't move your fingertips, be aware of the flow of your brain, neck, shoulders, arms, elbows, wrists, fingertips -"

"--Ruth, are you ready to move!?

While Cyrus was learning how to move her body, Kia, who was still a wolf, came back noisily.

"Is it true that Ruth is awake!?

"Ruth, can you move!?

Then comes Karen and Yuan, whom Ed and the others were talking about earlier.
