Transported to a hyper-realistic RPG.

Episode 593: Dark Elves

In this case, it was the black dog that was moving to kill me and Nil, but the plan to attack the city was made by Barabanta, and the black dog was not involved in the attack itself.

I'm sure it was manipulated from behind, but it was just speculation. Without physical evidence, the black dogs could not be detained for the crime of assault.

I feel like I don't have any physical evidence in front of this desolate people, but if I break my guilt without proof, it will be the same level as a bandit.

Best of all, if you punish them for being suspicious, the laws of the city will be disrupted in the future. Even in keeping order, the city side must be judged by a firm law.

Therefore, even if I tried to judge the black dog, I couldn't.

Well... they're not stupid enough to leave something to connect with us, and there can't be physical evidence. All the people who would have been directly involved with the Black Dog are dead, and the dead are left speechless.

He was in the basement of Bourdon's mansion and attacked us, but if she said she had targeted us with a personal grudge, she wouldn't be able to judge us as the people involved in the attack.

Naturally, if the black dog had thought so much and acted so much for himself, if he had noticed and asked about the raid, he would have said that he had fought through unknown circumstances and with only a grudge against us.

When it came to that... Nil, Heine, and Pilte were demons, and I didn't want to be investigated too deeply. If we want the black dog to be brought to justice, we will naturally find out who we are, so we have no choice but to ask...

If we don't sue, the sin itself will disappear.

The black dogs should have thought about it and been involved in this incident. It seems that even the enemy feels respect for the thorough behavior that doesn't feel dusty, such as the sweetness of stuffing.

However, Kevin and the others don't want to leave the black dog alone if they can. I know that the black dog was involved in the situation, and because there is no physical evidence, it is too dangerous to be free.

So Kevin and the others decided to leave the black dog to us.

It seems that Heine has negotiated around here, and it seems that the woman's custody is under our control.

As for why the extinct race is alive, I can imagine a number of reasons, and perhaps there is also a reason for loyalty to the Demon King.

It would be impossible for the black dog to break his mouth, and it would take time for the wound to recover and the blood to return. In the meantime, Heine and the others could not read the memory of the blood. Considering it takes time, I want to hold some kind of hand when I try to proceed in the direction of listening to the story.

"If you let me keep her here, I can talk to her."

But... it was a black dog. I don't think I can break my mouth that easily, and I want to collect all the information I can and keep my hands together. "

When that happens… it seems like it would be a good idea to investigate about the Dark Elves, but when it comes to races that were extinct a long time ago, it's doubtful that even the Demon Realm has any material left?

"When it comes to wartime, you can't say things like that one by one, and even if there are materials, it's highly likely that they've already been lost..."

Besides, considering the situation when Heine and the others came out of the demon world, and the fact that the black dog attacked, I didn't have time to go to the demon world and look for materials for Yasuo, and it seemed stupid to take that woman to that point.

It's a race I've never heard of either...

If Nil hadn't heard of it before... it might not have been a lot of talk outside of the demon world. At least not at the level of rumors in the city.

"If I collect information normally... I'll have all the materials, so maybe the library?"

Even though there may not be any material left in the demon realm, I don't think there is any material left outside the demon realm.

"Ahh... I see..."

"Then... why don't you ask the longevity race?" For example, the Elves... "

”Ngh!!”

When it was a blind spot, me and Sura-Tan rolled up their eyes.

There were no long-lived races in Japan, so I eventually forgot, but there are a lot of different races in this world.

It's much more efficient to talk to a longevity race, which is a living dictionary, than to look around for poor materials. Besides, you can think of the Dark Elves as having something to do with the Elves.

If we talk to the longevity Elves, there's a good chance we can get some information.

However, if the Dark Elves and the Elves are not the same as the common fantasy stories, and are in a friendly relationship, I don't think they will speak honestly to those who suddenly try to ask about the Dark Elves.

In that case, it's best to have a good relationship with the elves who know us and know our situation to a certain extent... There is something convenient about having such a convenient person...

“Maybe we should talk to Promerté.”

"That's how it is." I know where Eagle Crow is, so I'll call her. ”

I'm coming!

When Heine gets up, Surakutan reacts immediately. There are still bandits left in the city, and there's no real chance of anything happening, and they're probably worried about it. But...

"Suratan says hello to Sinya-san." Of these, Suratan has the highest level of medical knowledge. ”

"Ahh... that's true..."

"Don't worry, I'll come with you."

According to Nil, both Heine and Pilte seemed to be quite fatigued, but there were no major injuries, and they recovered completely after resting. I don't think the two of them who were healed can be hurt by the dull, stinking bandits who are still in the city. It must be my fault that the opponent was so pathetic.

Well... Surakutan's worries are that they're beautiful... so I don't think there's any need to worry about that.

Under the circumstances of the city, such a small villain who is doing such a thing, the two of them should shrink and flee at an explosive speed.

So even if you say don't worry, they won't say it's a problem...

"Um, yeah..."

It's okay! Then I'll go!

Pilte and Heine follow the figure behind them with their eyes.

Looks like Heine's plan to get along is about to succeed.

Sura-tan.

Huh?! Yeah! What?!

When the Pilates called out to Surakitan, who was staring at the door they had left, he replied as if he had noticed.

"... there's something I need to check before the two of you bring me Promerte."

"... yeah."

You realize that my tone of voice is a serious one, so you're sitting in a chair and straightening your posture.

"This battle with Hunters Larrabee was quite large and special, but I think we really know what kind of journey we're on.

There have not been so many major battles, but I have experienced many events that are just as life-threatening. ”

………………

"And, perhaps... from here on out, there's a high chance of getting into even more danger."

Demon Realm… Demon Clan, right?

"Yeah. I don't know what's going on in the demon world right now, but at least it's not safe." No, you'd better think of it as a pretty dangerous situation.

The black dogs aren't going to be all of them, and it's the worst... this time it could be as hard as it gets.

Of course, the number of people killed increases, and the likelihood of being killed increases. ”

"... yes."

"If you split up with us here and wait somewhere for a while, you can call me after everything is over."

To be honest, I think it might be better for Surakutan to do so. ”

"Huh?!"

"Don't get me wrong. I think the power of Surakitan is very reassuring for us, and I think it's one of us."

Um, yeah.

Even though you've saved me so much, I'm not prepared enough to put my feet together, and I definitely don't think about such a thing against Surakutan. Well... that speed is nothing but a threat to any race.

"I just don't want Sura to kill any more people because I think they're my people."

Sometimes you have to kill your friends to protect them. There are situations where you can only protect your life by taking it.

I really don't feel like taking a gentle sura-tan to such a place.

"Now that the battle with Hunters Lalabah is over, I want you to think twice." I was wondering if you'd come with us from now on.

I'm not going to make a fool of Sura Tan's readiness. This is... like my selfishness. "

…………………

In my words, Surakutan looks me straight in the eye as he thinks about something.

Normally, no one would want to go through such a tough battle over and over again that they have no idea whether to die or live. It's only natural that I don't want to experience it again if I can.

But if not, at least I think Surakutan should have about time to make a choice.

If we say that there will be slack here, we will not be disappointed with the slack, and there will be no change in our feelings towards the slack. You know that, too.

So, no matter what happens, I'm going to respect Surakutan's intentions.

"I want you to think about it and make a decision."

"Let's go. Together."

After what I say, I'm going to answer you.

"... is it the result of careful consideration...?"

"Of course, it's a life-threatening story, and I've been thinking about it ever since I heard who Heine and the others are."

What should I do… what can I do… and what do I want to do? ”

…………………

“Thinking like that, my answers always end up in the same place.”

The slatan's eyes in the back of his round glasses were not lost, and he was looking straight at me.

"I see... I'm sorry to take the form of trying to prepare Surakutan."

"No, I know you told me because you're worried about me."

But I'm going. "

“Okay, I know it's going to be a tough journey, but I'll be happy to continue.”

"I'll take care of it! With me and Pure Tong, I'll be the strongest!"

That's why I put a pure slime that pulls on my head.

I also naturally loosen my expression to my over-reliant companions.

Then, when Surakutan sees my wounds, and they're scratched around, Heine and the others come back.

Con...

Here you go.

* Giggle *

The door of the room was knocked on, and when he replied, the five of the Eagle Crows came into the room, following Heine and Pilte.

"Oh! You're awake!" You look better than I thought! "

"I heard you woke up. I'm here to pay my respects.”

Seidl and Donnate call out to me first.

I'm worried about you.

"When I found it, I was stunned and surprised, but I'm glad nothing happened."

"Please eat this whenever you're in good shape."

Promerte and Tana call out to me and give me something to show their sympathy for.

"It's for me!"

"Petro, it's only natural for you to be sympathetic." Well, it's not just a gift from Petro. "

I don't care about details!

It's not very detailed, is it?!

When the five Eagle Crows arrive, the room is instantly brightened. Petro, in particular, is a genius who creates this kind of air.

"Hahaha. Petro is always being scolded by Promerte, isn't he?"

Why is that?

"It's Petro's fault!?"

"Just kidding." Promerte is always serious. "

"Ugh!"

"Yes, yes! That's it." Please don't shout in a place like this. "

Tana stops, looks at the calming Promerthe and Petro, and finally smiles.

Then, I will talk about this matter, the current situation, and some public conversations.

Most of it was the same story that Nil and the others told me, but they told me a little more about the current situation in the city.

That said, as things stand, the reconstruction of the city cannot be done immediately, and it seems that we are finally narrowing down the number of people who govern the city to a few and talking to them...

Most of the aristocrats have disappeared from the city and are in a very precarious state, so it seems that they have not been able to talk or reconstruct the city.

On Ouka Island, there were people who gave such instructions, so the chaos subsided immediately, but there were almost no such people here, so it would be difficult.

Speaking of giving instructions, I think that I can do something around Garosa, the head of the hidden village, but if the city of this scale is governed, it will be a little heavy because it will definitely need political, legal and other knowledge. He was originally a soldier and a gatekeeper in Hoog's Mansion, so he doesn't have that much knowledge.

I'm not making a fool of Garrosa, nor do I doubt her ability. Simply, if you are able to respond immediately in this situation, you must already have knowledge and experience.

That's why the person chosen this time is a temporary lord.

If the people say that the policy gathers approval and wants it to continue as it is, it is good to become a lord as it is, or if it is judged that another person should become a lord, then it is good to decide the lord at that time.

"Just... the problem is the title."

"Ahh... there's no longer anybody to shelter this city..."

"Yes, the tallest man around was Bourdon-Fujolde." Count. "

In other words, what Promerte wants to say is...

Originally, Bourdon-Fujorde was granted the title of Count, so don't touch the cities and villages around here because they are under the jurisdiction of the Human King. It was in such a state.

However, because Fjorde, the highest title around here, is one of the masterminds of this case, by pleading guilty, the effect disappears from the city and village around here.

Those who hold the title below the count are awarded the title by being appointed by a person above the count, so without the nobility who appointed them, they would not be connected to the clan king.

As a result, no matter how knowledgeable or experienced the aristocrats may be, they will no longer be able to shelter the city in the name of the aristocrats.

It is the biggest city in the neighborhood and has the largest number of residents, so it is not a city that can be easily dropped without sheltering people, but... there is still no influence from somewhere, and what you feel when you look at it from the surroundings is very different.

If you look from the outside, you won't even know that there are no more nobles than the Count, but if you look into it, you will soon find out.

If you only know, there is no problem, but it goes without saying how fragile the aristocrats without back shields are. If you know that there is such a city, you can easily imagine what kind of people will gather from where. Even though we destroyed the Corner Bandit, it didn't make sense.

Will you bring someone with the rank of Count or higher from another city...?

"There is no such way, but it will be difficult."

They already have their own territory and are Lords, so it's extremely rare that they suddenly ask you to rule somewhere else. ”

Donnate denied it, and I was very happy.

I'm not very familiar with titles, so I seem to have asked some stupid questions. It looks like you're still asleep.

Still, Donate keeps explaining it to me with a face that's as if I didn't know it and it's natural.

"It is highly probable that these nobles will go to a neighboring city ruled by someone with the title of Count or above, and have their titles regained, or they can tell someone close to the Tribal King about the situation and make someone the title of Count or above..."

"When it comes to the tangle of tribal kings, it's not that easy to talk about, is it?"

"Of course, when you are awarded a title of Count or higher, you will be judged accordingly, and it will take time."

I'm not very familiar with it either... but I've heard stories about it. If you're a human, you can cut down on time with money. "

In order to get rid of annoying judgments, someone with a high title will accumulate a lot of money for their convenience...

"Well... even if it can be shortened, it's only for a few days, and it doesn't make much sense." This is a high urgency story, so we don't have time to wait for it to come through. ”

"With money... the aristocrats..."

"Rather than being an aristocrat, in the case of the human race, there are more than other races, so it's hard to clean everything up."

This is not all we can say, nor is it something that changes when we say it.

"However... if I go to meet the tribal king of the human race, I will collide with the Holy Knights, so I will cross a rather dangerous bridge."

The king of the tribe of men is only the king of the tribe, apart from the holy knights.

The Holy Knights are a group that worships the god Ishurbar, and there is no other meaning.
