Vorpal Rabbit and Fortress Uncle

"--This is her shop, isn't it?"

Fu, who had broken up with the maples, was visiting a single industrial park. Among various production bases such as blacksmithy and carpentry shop, the curse workshop [Moonlight Firefly] is quietly lined up. This shop is the biggest reason she came to Kiyo.

”I need to tell you a story about how I'm going to beat you to death.”

Fuyu's sniffs were rough, and Huyu put his hand on the closed door of [Moonlight].

You don't have permission to enter

“How's it going?

However, the shop's thin doors are stubborn. A small window in front of her shows a simple sentence.

What, what do you mean!? Even though it's a shop, you're putting restrictions on entry?

Unbelievable, Huu swells his tail.

Normally, any player who runs a store should be able to enter the store floor. There is also a vending machine, so you don't have to be logged in. That should be the biggest benefit of deliberately paying high rents to rent a property.

"Ugh! Ugh! Why can't you open it!"

Hu grabs the door and tries to pry it open with his hand. However, the systematically closed door can no longer be opened with any hand.

"Ugh, as long as I have the [Unlock] skill..."

She was the one who gave up such a thing regretfully, but of course she couldn't open it even though she had a level 100 skill. In a sense, the FPO relies on the most robust security.

I wonder if there's a back door.

The thought of a foolish fu gradually starts to run wild.

She glanced around and saw that there were no human eyes, sliding her body into the narrow alley between the buildings.

"Fufu, don't lick the cat-type robot." It's just a little bit like this. "

He shakes his beard and progresses through the gap with his proud face. Eventually, she reached the back of the Moonlight surrounded by the ridge.

Hmmm. Maybe it's a little garden out back.

Because of the tall bamboo, it can't be seen inside, but it seems that there is some land without a roof.

Fu walked around the ridge like a thief, checking for any gaps that might get inside. Of course not.

"... yeah?"

However, her sharp hearing captured the sound emanating from the vault. The cat's ears twitched, and he leaned his head against the ridge and listened.

"Fufufufufu. Fufufufufufufu"

It was an adorable song.

Someone came out to the backyard of the building in a lethargic manner. Hu intuitively understands that it is the owner of this [Moon Night Firefly].

"Hmm, the quality of the bloodstained cloth is not very stable." I wonder why. "

The Lord of songs speaketh not unto any man, but leaketh a voice like the sound of a bell. It was quite noisy, but the Moonlight was a spellbinding workshop. Hu convinced himself that there were some of those things.

"Is it more stable to mix all kinds of blood?" I wonder if I should add various fusing agents. Either way, I want more blood. "

Fu frowned as he raised his ears.

I know, but my tail swells unexpectedly at the end of my many fierce words. I'm sure his personality is also damp.

Thinking of the most rude thing, she wonders how she can get past this ridge.

Just looking at the height will overcome it lightly, but it won't allow us to enter so easily. Probably higher than the ridge, with a transparent wall. Then there is only one way.

"Ah, um... hey, did you like Firefly's shop?"

"Wahhh!?"

If you can't get it in from the outside, you can get it in the person inside. With that thought, Hu shouted at the other side of the ridge.

― ― The person was going to shout mightily, but what a weak question it actually leaked out of his mouth.

However, it seems that the girl behind Itabashi was also surprised by the unexpected voice of people. There is a cute scream and a dull sound of something hitting.

"No, no... no, no, no, no."

The girl looked confused and lost in words. Fufu was fufu, and she was wondering if the girl was injured.

"Well, who is it?" "I'm sorry, but we're on an introductory basis..." At first glance, she refused... "

"Oh, I see. I'm sorry."

In his troubled voice, Huu inadvertently apologized.

So the conversation breaks down and an uncomfortable silence is created.

No, that's not it!

Little by little, Hu pushes himself in.

Why are you backing off so honestly here? Remember what you came here to do.

That's how she inspires herself, and she stirs up her feelings again.

"Hey, Firefly-san! I'm a friend of Mikage-kun's, uh... and I know him!" Please give me permission to enter! "

Oh, I see.

Hu shouts with courage.

I was familiar with Miggage-kun and Friend Leah. I have eaten dinner together, and when I was a child, I slept next to him in a forest school (although my sister was also with me). It's like coming and going to each other's homes (although they're on the doorstep with restaurants).

With such words in his chest, he said it with vigour.

However, across the boardwalk --- the shopkeeper Firefly said, "Is that the kind of guy that came again?" and returned.

"I-I see..."

Fuu's ears pinned up.

We're from a perimeter settlement. There are only three childhood friends: me, Mikage-kun, and onee-san. And I protest in my heart.

"Mikage-san is a celebrity." There are many people who want to use my store. In that case, even though I didn't know Mr. Mikage in person, some people said that they had introduced me to him. "

"Guuuu"

Piercing the pain directly in front of him, Huu groaned unexpectedly.

She should be close to the real Mikage, but she has no contact with the Mikage in the FPO. I've never met her before and she can't have exchanged her Friend Card.

"Um, if you know Mr. Mikage, can I check with him?"

"Guu... I'm sorry, Mikage-kun doesn't know me"

At some point, Hu raised a white flag to the firefly that had come to the right side of the ridge. If it is directly confirmed by Miglage, various activities up to this point will be ruined.

However, as Hu hung his back on the ridge, the firefly was still there.

"... can I ask your name?"

Fu replied, a little surprised but in a hurry, as he asked reluctantly.

"Heh, heh. It means tiger!" I'm a cook and I'm using it! "

"Cook and concurrent user? Well, aren't you a magician?"

The firefly asked a question.

I couldn't see the expression from Hu, but I knew it was very clear.

“No, I'm not.”

"Well, then, why did you come to me?"

"Um, I'm a little confused when I get confirmation from Mikage-kun..."

Fuu clutches his fingers and puts them forward in a small voice.

"I'm a friend of Mikage-kun's." So I asked him to introduce me to this game, and then I got a blog called the FPO Journal. "

"Oh, Reggie-san's..."

Knowing that it was a violation of manners, Huu tells the situation. When I named Ledge's blog, the fireflies seemed to know it too.

That's where I found Firefly-san, and I'd love to see you again.

I-I see?

Suddenly, the story leaps and the firefly becomes confused.

Fuu was shaking his tail and beard without restlessness.

There was a little silence, and suddenly a small door attached to the boardwalk opened.

"Uuhhhh!?"

Fu jumped up in surprise at the sudden event, and a firefly said from the other side of the ridge.

"It's inconvenient to go over all the way." That doesn't mean that Fu-san has come to chill mischievously. "

Ah, wow, thank you.

Please, Hu thanked the fireflies who urged him inside in a hurry. Then, he peeked into the wall from the door that had been opened in surprise.

It was a melancholy garden exposed to the soil. Nothing but a few bonsai bowls lined the side of the ridge.

A black-haired girl wearing a kimono and a cat-shaped lycanthrope stood in a garden about the size of a cat's forehead.

"You're Mr. Firefly..."

Hu muttered as he stared at the girl's yellow eyes.

You must be Mr. Hu.

At the same time, the firefly stared at Huu again and said.

The two instinctively understood the moment they exchanged gazes. They say we're family. I'm not talking about the model of the plane. A certain young man is in the same position as a common denominator.

"... I see, is that what you mean?"

The firefly nodded in relief.

"Shit, you're cute."

Fufu was gnashing his teeth in remorse.

If the firefly was just a girl who was nothing, there was a cute way to induce shelter even with the eyes of the same sex. With this, there's no way he could be entangled with someone who's somehow good at caring.

……

……

The battle began quietly in a quiet garden.

The two stared at each other with caution. They knew how to move and how to get out of each other.

In real life, Hu had an overwhelming advantage. After all, we grew up together from a very young age. However, I cannot say that only within the FPO. Mikage left all her magic gear to the fireflies, not to Neva. The relationship of trust is quite strong.

By the way, you haven't introduced yourself yet.

"Ah!?"

Suddenly, the firefly loosens its mouth.

As the sense of urgency dissipated and Fu was puzzled, she walked up with a relaxed body.

"I am the firefly of the Cursemaker." Mikage-san is a dedicated spell craftsman. "

"Ahh!"

Fu noticed the firefly's words highlighting some of them. She made a mistake.

"Me, me too..."

"I know." Honestly, I envy you so much. "

Huh?

The fireflies inflated their cheeks as they blocked Fu's voice as he tried to rebel. Poisoned by his adorable move, Hu leaned his neck in bewilderment.

"I want to become familiar with Mr. Mikage as a child."

"Yeah..."

"Fu-san is a childhood friend, but I'm just a game friend." Isn't it hopeless to think about it? "

No, no, I don't think so.

Hang in there, and for some reason Fu will support the fireflies. I can't stop thinking because I'm not feeling well.

"Fu-san, please tell me a lot about Migage-san." I'll also tell you about Miss Migage in the game. "

"Huh!? But what about the real thing..."

"Ah, as long as it doesn't bother you!" Oh, please. "

"Wow!?"

Fu panicked at the firefly trying to get down on its knees. It is not seen by anyone, but it is a terrible thing in the external appearance.

Why are you doing this? "she nods in confusion.

"And, it's only in the unidentified range!"

"Thank you! Ah, you can make tea." There are sweets, too. "

The fireflies fled into the building.

"...... it's not what I thought"

Fu, who was left alone in the backyard, stood dumbfounded and made a small speech.
