Welcome to Japan, Mr. Elf.

The Kitase family is always bumpy.

It was fun to watch from a distance, but it was particularly noisy today.

”Hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry!”

Saying so, it was the young elves who were still pulling the arms of the young man.

According to a commentary, the concept of "old age" seems to be poor among the elves. There is a source of power that people will never know, and it is a race that has given up about half of what can be said to be the main stream of life.

To put it in more detail, it is called the "Great Spirit World", and the old people who know the Magic Age and the Night Age are called the "original sight". However, those who knew the world before it was shaped were limited to magic dragons, so it would be very rare.

After all, the Elf tribe is difficult for humans to understand.

However, the human race was not to be underestimated. In ancient times, wise men discovered that the Great Spirit World was still real. Their obsession with understanding what they do not understand is great.

The trail remains a secret ruin in the city where Mariabel lived, but no one knows about it, and it continues to quietly collapse in its old days.

No, the girl who is stomping on the spot and the young man who is in a hurry to tie his shoelaces may still remember. They looked very eye-catching at this. Especially when it comes to things that seem interesting.

Let's hurry! Mui might be frightened!

Mariabelle's centuries-old moon days are by no means short, but it can be seen that her face, which still retains a great deal of dullness, lived with few hardships.

Human beings grow spiritually through the growth of the body, but in the case of the elves, there is also the theory that the shape of the body changes according to the spirit.

I wasn't sure if it was true, because it resembled a fabulous fairy. Appearance is only part of the essence.

"Yeah, I'm really glad there are Tsukiko-san downstairs." But if you run away again, it'll be tough. "

It seems that his usual relaxed tone is not going to be the same today. I hurried to tie my shoelaces so that I could be driven away from the Elves.

Yes, the residents of the fantasy world stand out.

They live in very different worlds, different cultures, different cultures, different ways of life, different ecosystems. The Mariabelle of the Elves looks shining to the people of this world like a longing for the unknown.

Mui, who is a cat clan, is similar to a cat if she stays silent, but she can stand up well and talk in her beast language or in a common language.

Although it has much in common with cats in terms of adoration, many people would be surprised if they saw it. And it could be a commotion.

So the two of them were in a great hurry, and when they finished tying their shoelaces, they jumped out of a room in the apartment.

"What should I do? I jumped from such a high place." What if I'm injured? "

"Hmm, that's okay, isn't it?" Originally, the Cat Clan was a fast escaping race, and they were good at climbing and descending from high places. "

“I don't know. When you're new to the other world, things are totally different. Even I can't handle spirit magic properly anymore."

Indeed, when she first visited Japan, she could only see the Spirit. However, it is also true that now that we have passed through the three seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter, we can at least use the fire so that we don't have any trouble with heating. It was only an addition to the household budget.

Now, their feet will not be dulled by the cold air of winter.

Quickly, when the Elves were driving down the hallway again, an electronic sound rang across the hall.

Apparently, it was the sound of the elevator coming from downstairs, and it was Toru and Mui who showed up. Hiding the Beastman's Son with her husband's large body, she must have managed to get here. It was a difficult thing.

"Ah, Marie-chan..."

Behind Toru, who greeted her with a smile as usual, Tsukiko froze for some reason. As soon as I saw it, I turned into a very impatient expression, and I pushed my husband away and walked up to him.

Tsubaki whispers as he turns his fingertips toward the elves, shouting out loud and grunting.

"Mi, ears! Marie-chan, ears, ears, ears!"

Huh? Ah, ahhh!

She was poked with her fingers, and Mariabelle finally noticed her disfigurement.

Sharp ears are the hallmarks of the Elves. He hears the sounds of the distance, and hears the voices that are never heard, and he is closely associated with the Spirit.

However, only today, she seemed to have forgotten to hide her panic, and Kitase didn't notice either. The girl lifted her lovely scream, covering her raised ears with both hands.

However, she doesn't have to be as frightened as she is.

There is an anecdote that the Elves are beautiful once they see them in their dreams. Even if they were to be seen, the opponent would be dazed and not concerned about the long ears at all.

Just as much as Mui...... No, the girl who was completely distracted by what stood out more than that, quickly turned herself upside down and hid herself on Kitase's back.

This time, Kitase panicked to see if it was the perfect place for the girl to hide from her enemies. Maybe I tasted a feminine touch.

And in the meantime, in our room!

Right, let's hurry!

Kitase and Kaoruko must have been in a hurry. With a loud voice that could catch people's attention, they received a gruff-faced cat clan, and Kitase and the others quickly walked down the hallway.

When I met the inhabitants of the condominium on the way, I looked at it and made my body so small that I felt sorry for them.

Although it is a noisy Kitase house, it is still much noisier today than usual. I usually spend a lot of time reading.

I let out a much smaller sigh than the squirrel's whisper, so that no one could hear me.

Behind the open doors is a pleasant room temperature that doesn't seem like winter. Then, thanks to the fire lying on the stain and the wood stove, the little hand was shown to the visitor waving.

I think it's a little humorous for a dangerous spirit that once caused a "fire disaster" in Alexei.

But that was the end of the observation. Because the eye-catching black cat made the golden eyes shine.

Ticking, I ran into the sky.

§

Ice Labyrinth, is that it?

Kaoruko-san, wearing a slightly thicker pair of glasses, is about to put a mug in her mouth. The same thing was prepared for Toru-san who sat next to me.

Maybe they were on the verge of going out. Cold shields such as coats are placed over the hangers and warm cocoa is added to the mouth.

Although this room is slightly spacious, it is a studio, so when four people sit at the table, it is a little small. That said, Marie's hobby is to have small plants, and it doesn't look like a coffee shop.

"That's right." I'm in a dangerous place right now, so I can't take you two with me... "

I say that in a somewhat slurred tone. [M]

Because, to be honest, I actually enjoyed the secluded journey and the labyrinth that I had seen for the first time.

So I feel sorry, but there is no doubt that it is dangerous. Marie seemed to agree with this.

"That's right. It's very dangerous, and the frozen cold keeps coming at us." I think my fingertips will bite. "

Holding her shoulder, she shuddered, and then Marie leaked again, "Oh, horrible." But she said, "Isn't it very cold? Why do you think that?"

Is it because it is unusual for the elves to live in nature, and it is cold and hot? If Marie is fine, I may think I'm fine.

She said so as a warning. However, the couple here had the opposite effect.

"Sounds good..."

"It looks fun, and it's more fun than anything."

"Gruuuu," said Toru-san, envying her from the bottom of her heart. Marie's well-shaped eyebrows slightly warped in response to the two less anticipated reactions.

"Huh? It's very cold, isn't it? The humans don't like the cold, do they?"

Um, well, maybe Marie's colder than the humans. Even if everyone here thinks so, they will never speak. Marie never bursts into harm's way because she's a compassionate person.

In any case, the reason for envying the cold is very simple.

My husband and I were born in Hokkaido, and I also spent time in Aomori as a child, so it goes without saying that they are very resistant to the cold. It's harshness that you can't live without.

However, there are times when there is distress because you have lived in such an environment.

“It's hardly snowing this year, and I don't feel like winter at all.”

I knew it was impossible, but I should have thought about traveling to Snowland.

Tsukiko snapped at the table, and Toru-san roared with her arms folded.

Incidentally, Mui is hiding under the bed over there. I wonder if you didn't like the bath so much. Sometimes you sniff your own hair.

"There are many houses that are well heated these days, but it's extremely cold when you go outside."

If you have leftover cups in your room, they'll freeze normally.

Marie's expression turns pale in such a conversation between the couple. I was complaining that it was cold, but I didn't think there was any colder land than that... Needless to say, the ice labyrinth is much colder. I was just helped by a fine fur.

"Speaking of cold, that's it." It is really delicious to eat hot pots and warm things in such a place. I can't stand ramen noodles floating in the moisture anymore, can I? "

The eyes of the black cat glowed. Same goes for the drooping saliva, but don't feel like you've given me knowledge that you shouldn't give.

And the elves are also weak in appetite. I could not believe that I liked it cold, and I retracted my words, and my throat was throbbing very suddenly.

"We're going on a trip to Aomori's grandfather's house soon." I wonder if there is something better to eat at that time. "

"Wow, that's great! I envy you!" Eating while watching the snow... hmm, I can't wait. Tell me where to go and I'll show you the best places to eat. ”

Kiran and the black cat's eyes shine. Speaking of which, on the previous trip to Aomori, I was happy that I ate all the hot pots from my stomach.

No, you don't. Marie is happy and excited, but I want you to realize that we're in the middle of putting gasoline in the fire.

Well then, I wonder if Kitase-kun is going to report his marriage to Grandpa

"Oh, yeah, that's right. There's a lot to think about to become a couple, but I'm going to do it one at a time.”

Yes, and Tetsu-san narrowed his eyes and nodded.

I'd like to talk to Marie about her family register. His words of "no problem" made me feel better, or it was thanks to those words that I decided to register.

Oh, yeah, that's important.

After a few small nods, Marie blushes and says something like that. It's her habit to shake her hand and place it on her mouth, thinking about things I wouldn't expect at a time like this. [M] Now, what kind of "things to become a husband and wife" did you think about?

"When it's over, I thought I'd go to the Elves."

It is probably a failure to say so casually. Atsuko-san covered her sad face with her hands and groaned, forgetting her salutations.

Hmm, I know. I know how you feel.

If I knew that the Elf's Town was real and that I could walk through that space, I would envy it from the bottom of my heart. I've been here since I was little, but it's still a lovely place to remember.

I never wanted to be proud. So I laughed at both of them. [M]

“You're safe, and I'll come with you if you like?”

“I'm going, I'm going! Shit, shit, shit, shit!"

She said so, clinging to my arm with a tearful expression on her face. It is a momentum that will make this opportunity missed, and I can also feel the obsession. Marie and Tetsu-san moaned "Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.

In a nutshell, Tsukiko gets up.

"Don't you see, this is amazing!" It's incredible that we can actually get to the land where the Elves live! The town of the unburned elves! "

"Burned...? That's right, when I said it..."

The hips are completely receding, and the attitude of "I'm in line with the story" is, on the contrary, dissuasive to Sakiko-san's feelings. He's always polite and gentle, but he's not a woman. Sniffing out the disturbing air, I stare at Marie unexpectedly.

Well, well, it's still ahead of us.

"Yes, and I haven't gotten permission to go inside yet." I'm sure your father will be fine. "

Apparently she realized that we cared about her, and Satoko-san was unexpectedly happy. And this time, my face turned bright red, and I bowed my head.

"I'm sorry I followed you!" But when I thought that there were a lot of beautiful and cute Elves, I was... over-excited. I'm reflecting. I'm sorry. ”

I was able to keep my head down. I'll keep in my chest a very sloppy expression for a moment.

I'm telling you, the Elf's Town is a pretty pastoral place. I don't know what kind of scenery you're imagining.

I open my mouth after I really cough up. [M]

"That's why I can't guide you two to the other side, even though I'm on holiday."

That's right. Aside from the cold, there are terrible monsters, and there are some witches who don't know how to do it.

Well, I guess he was kind.

By the way, if you defeat a monster, you will get reinforced materials, and keep the labyrinth to help you craft items. Otherwise, they might say, "That's good."

By our persuasion in such a breath, Tsukiko-san sheds her shoulders. But it didn't seem more sad than before.

Of course I'll be patient, because you can guide me to the Elf's place.

"I'm sorry for interrupting you when you go out." So, where were you planning to go? ”

Asked, Tetsu-san returns a bad look.

No, well, I didn't have a big plan, but I thought it would be a waste if I didn't go out on holiday.

"Is that so?" Is that good? Well, we can't even go out today. "

Saying that as if you were in trouble, you should look under the bed.

There is a dimly lit creature like a cat, with a pin and triangular ears. Although it is more calm than before, I don't know about Japanese, so I think you are looking at the situation.

We can't just leave Mui alone, who doesn't know the right or left of this world. Come here and gesture to him.

"Mui, why don't you say hello?" They were very helpful when they created the third tier. "

"The third hierarchy? Haha, this is the first time I've reached Masita."

Earlier, he had a grumpy ear, but it was always him who came out. I suddenly stood up with a small body, and when I wiped off the dust that was on my hair, I turned to my big eyes.

“He's Mui. He's small but full of talent, and he makes his living by smelting magic stones. I've had my sword trained before."

"Well, that's amazing." I'm Ayako. Ah, ah, Kaoruko, Death. Words passing masca? "

Muy's tail swayed suddenly.

He was surprised because he had heard the beastly language of the few who could speak it. Of course, I can talk, but I can't learn much and live much, so I'm in a very small minority.

I'm sure he'll be even more surprised from now on.

In the third tier, he teaches various language courses and techniques, and he is starting to manage the fields with the lizardmen. Even those who have just emigrated to Alilai, the fear of beasts and demons is fading with each passing day.

"As I said before, there are many beasts and demons in the nameless country." There will be more people who can speak in Mui's language from now on. "

As he strokes his head, his eyes shine again.

The Elves, who were supposed to hate Beastmen, came hugging each other and saying, "Cute! Like I said, there's going to be a lot of fun things going on.

It's sloppy.

Cutting off our air like that, the elves keep coming in. Why are you looking at me with your fixed eyes? [M]

The pale purple eyes are beautiful enough to see, but it's not the same as being cold. I was sweating, and I said, "Well, what's going on?" I ask.

"I also want to learn Beastlanguage. It's terrible to be left to my own devices."

"Um, yeah, I'll tell you anytime. Somehow Marie and Muy seem to be communicating their intentions. And even Toru-san's words....."

"Oh, I can say that because I'm someone who understands words." Even you and Atsuko-san would think the same thing if you didn't understand the words. "

Although my angry face is close, my eyes are big and beautiful, so I think "cute" is probably because I am a man.

No matter how much you're dating and close to getting married, your cheeks get hot just because a girl with pure white hair tied to her side and laughing beautifully from time to time is just nearby.

That said, the question mark of Hatena comes to my mind when I can tangle my little fingers with each other.

"Then I promise, you will teach me the language of the beast every day from now on."

My mouth is unexpectedly loosened by a girl who is pulling her face upwards. A long time ago, I was told, "You are such an idiot that you are learning the language of beasts."

Of course, I'll be happy to teach you.

"If you lie, I'll give you a thousand needles... I'll give you three, even two and a half."

Um, well, I think it's a bit scary when it's three pieces and the reality increases.

I waved my hand up and down and promised to keep it.

Then, when I thought about how to teach it, my eyes suddenly met with Mui, who was next door.

That's right. There's someone I can talk to. Let's play with Mui and learn the human language today.

"Neither I nor I! I would love to learn too!”

When they raised their hands, two students took their seats. The other one turned to the ceiling and said, "Mm."

"We were just getting bored, too, so if you don't mind, let me play at Kitase-kun's house today." Tsubaki, it's a good time, so can we get out of here? "

"Oh, that's good!" Marie-chan, Tetsu-san will treat you to anything. "

That's what he said, and in his mouth he said, "Demaye?" Marie tweeted, but she shone her light purple eyes at the menu she was showing on her smartphone.

Sushi, bowls, pizza, and more are just some of Marie's favorite foods.

I think it is this flyer that is skilful in Japanese cafeterias again. An appetizing light, an original design for each store, I can never blame a girl who throats, and I don't care if the black cat clinging to her back has a cheerful expression.

"Damn you!"

If your eyes shine brightly and you say so, I can only crush "I wonder if it's a rare occurrence".

No, I don't disagree, but the seasoning is strong. Rather than that, I, Kaoruko-san and Tetsu-san each dazzle their faces. You can't beat a pretty girl, we're grown-ups.

On the table is an assortment of cat goodies that I just bought. And there's Tsukiko-san, who is very good at playing indoors.

That's why, while asking for lunch early, we decided to consult on how to play with Mui, who is not yet used to Japan.
