Vorpal Rabbit and Fortress Uncle
Episode 97: Guiding the Way of the White Deer
"Really... for you too..."
When we told him we didn't know how to get back, he dropped his shoulders and got smaller.
The previous confident smile disappeared, and a small animal cuteness aroused the desire for asylum that I had at the beginning of the encounter.
"Isn't there anyone else coming down the stairs besides Letty?
Letty says next to the circle of fire.
It's a new field that I've been so eager for.
It is no wonder that there are players other than us who accidentally and intentionally descend to the lower levels.
The very existence of a circle is proof of that.
"Indeed, I think some of them are already coming down."
She says while holding a small chocolate bar with both hands.
It looks like a hamster eating a little bit.
"But I think all of them are my colleagues."
"Wiki editor... Survey team?
Lacto, holding the same chocolate bar as her, leans his neck.
Himami agreed after a little talk.
"That's right. Like me and Length, wiki editor. And I'm an intelligence gatherer who's skilled at acting alone."
Well, why don't you ask your colleagues?
Amy was right.
We are just ordinary people who have stumbled into the lower classes by accident, not a tactical group trying to solve the mystery of this field with conviction.
I feel it's faster to rely on other players in my industry than to ask us for directions.
However, he didn't seem to think so, and shook his head left and right without force.
"That's not how it works.... is this the wiki editor's melody?"
She says with a heavy look.
"Including me, they are proud and proud to add to the wiki. That's why information must be clear and reliable, and it's not public - I hate being written to wiki ahead of the information being investigated."
"I mean...?
Letty floats a lot of question marks and leans her neck around her words.
"If there's no information on the wiki, you can't tell anybody, even if they knew."
"I see...."
You know the importance of the responsibilities associated with releasing information because you are a coward of working with it.
"Still, isn't it more efficient for everyone to have a thread on the bulletin board and discuss it?
"That's...."
She narrowed her eyes as if she was in trouble.
"The main informant who is taking the skill of acting alone is generally less willing to cooperate."
She sighed and said that she had been stabbed in a painful place.
It wasn't that I couldn't understand it somehow, but it was a reason to applaud.
"Everyone is hiding in the shadows, observing the energy of the field, and if they find us, they'll be able to escape right away."
"Is that what wiki editors do?
Lacto said with astonishment that his shoulders were relaxed.
Her cheeks became slightly red around her face and she rushed to deny it.
"Not everyone says that.... some people use connections as a treasure like Length."
A slightly unintentional whisper of the name.
Indeed, he introduced me to Toka and Mikage's sister and brother.
That harsh appearance is memorable and pleasant personality is friendly.
I seem to miss him a little bit, too.
"Mr. Reggie, are you being rude?"
"I didn't think about it...."
Glitter and harden your words.
It's easier for me to show my face than to say that women have a good hunch...?
So, Mr. Reggie.
Yes, what is it?
Separate topics and open your mouth around them.
"That white deer sleeping under my feet....."
"Ahh....."
Behind her gaze is a white deer breathing back and forth.
His ears were knocked down and he couldn't hear us on fire.
"Is that the white energies you were talking about on the bulletin board?"
"I don't know anything about boulders."
Little wiki editors take it for granted.
As she gathered more information from Mame than Letty, she looked at flyers and white deer from the beginning.
"I don't know why you miss me, either."
In the meantime, I'll tell you what happened when I met him.
"Is it a bud crushed by rocks in the back of the forest?"
"Oh, I broke a rock and found something like this."
Remove the meteorite shards from the inventory and show them around.
She looked at it with interest and looked into the details using appraisals and the like.
"It's an unknown item. It's probably a new item."
"Well, that's what I was thinking. When I get back to Susano, I'm going to show it to a blacksmith I know."
"If you can tell me what happened, I want you to tell me."
"It's fine."
There is no particular reason to refuse.
When I nodded, she shook my hand brightly.
"Thank you!
"Oh oh...."
Was it so thankful?
Um, Mr. Reggie.
Being confused, Letty opened her mouth unexpectedly.
"What's wrong?
"Doesn't the reindeer know the way back to the upper levels?
Does this mean that the scales fall from the eyes?
Letty's opinion was persuasive.
It was the upper echelons that we first met the white deer.
If he lived in this forest, he would know the path we don't know.
"Hey, I'm feeling sick sleeping..."
Pompously and modestly slap the back of the stag.
The soft white fur was nice to the touch and slightly cool where it was not illuminated by fire.
He opened one of his eyes and when he saw my face, he puffed and exhaled.
"If there's a way to get back to the top... of the waterfall, can you tell me?
The white deer is staring at me.
The collapsed ears are moving, so you should be able to hear them.
There was no guarantee that I could understand what that meant, but I felt something like the kind of intelligence that came out somehow.
Oops.
Suddenly, the white deer stood up.
When he saw our faces surrounding the fire, shaking the corners of Sharari and the crystal, he snorted.
Then he walks out towards the entrance to the camp.
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on.
I'm taking out my weapon. Please wait.
"Suddenly!
Seeing the moving deer, we hurry to get ready to move.
Fold up the camp, light the lantern, and Letty and the others hold weapons to protect the surroundings.
"Are you sure you want to show me the way?
"I don't know, maybe."
Surprisingly, I agree, but there was also trust in the white deer.
When everyone is ready, the white deer walks out of here.
"Let's go after him."
"The lantern will keep the enemy away for some time, but be careful."
"I can't use a bow. Don't count the fighters."
Ahead, Amy, Letty stands behind you and watches the perimeter.
Needless to say, there was almost no weapons-free lact and little attack power, and the two of them were lined up on my left and right.
While taking on a diamond-shaped formation, we follow the lead of the white deer through the forest.
The white deer scratched apart in the dark forest, which was still open at night.
It's parallel to the waterfall.
Himamori says.
Speaking of which, she was good at space grasping.
It reminds me of a time when you guided me through a tunnel strewn underground in Susano.
"I thought there was a secret passage behind the waterfall."
It's a little unexpected and a little regrettable.
Letty looked at me like that with warm eyes.
"That was the first time I checked."
I knew you checked.
He nodded as if he were right.
As far as I can think, I may have already looked into it.
Reggie, there's a river.
Amy said that she was moving forward.
If you listen, you can hear the splash of the rapid current.
One of the rivers that branched fine from the waterfall pot was lying.
The white deer jumps over it lightly and goes further.
"Be careful, it's dark."
Help them cross the river while illuminating with lanterns.
Afterwards, they alternate between the forest and the river, gradually moving toward the edge of the field.
Oh?
Then, when time passed, the white deer stopped and turned to us unexpectedly.
Arrive?
When he comes near the white deer, he looks up.
When the lantern was raised, the traces of the cliff's slippery collapse were lit by light.
"You're not going to climb here?
Even though it's broken, there's a huge rock rolling around more than my back.
Looking at it on a large scale, it is a mild slope, but it is not very likely to climb.
When he looks at the white deer with that in mind, he slips away.
And he walked under the rock, and threw his head into the little gap that was made therein.
"Hmm...."
Scratch the ground with a gooey hoof and push your body in.
Does it spread a little inside, or does the white deer stick the black tip out of the hole?
"I'll put it in a lot...."
"I'm worried the corners won't break."
Letty and the others who saw it stood still.
No matter how big the white deer is, it's smaller than us.
We can't get into a hole as close as he can get.
Standing in the middle of the night, a white deer crawled out as if it had cut its roots.
As he circled behind me, he pushed his back with a gooey head.
"Hey, what are you...? No way...."
When the white deer stood next to me, I hit the corner of the branch against the rock.
Looking at it, I understood what he was saying.
