That day, he served a sanctuary tent outside, in which the four of us, Ethereum, Deena, Atra and Ed, tongue-in-cheek at Deena's handicrafts. Ed was vegetables, fruits, etc., but Atra was able to eat regular meals without any problems.
After that, when I finish cleaning up, I go back to my respective beds and go to bed. Atra was to be lined up on the doorstep as an intruder measure. Underneath that body, Ethereum prepared the fur of the demon.
Next morning.
The wake of the four who were able to rest slowly was refreshing.
"I was only here for a few days after all, shall we leave?"
Aeta suggests when she is drinking awake tea in the living room.
"Right. Sometimes I worry about a lot of things, and besides... the journey is fun!
Deena was also in Grevin's book, which she read the day before, and her desire to go on an adventure was growing.
'I don't care either way. He's Lord Sorta's beast demon. "
That's what Atra said in her mouth, but it was obvious when she looked at her tail that her feelings for the dwarf settlement were right.
"Then it's a decision. I kept my letters to all places yesterday. I'm going to ask Hula for the mansion and a letter. Now we should be able to leave soon."
The two of them nodded at Aotearoa's words.
When he left the house, Ed waited to see if he expected Ethereal Tails to behave, or if he had left yet.
"Ed's got a good guess."
Ed, right? and snorts towards Ethereum all the time.
At dinner yesterday, Ethereum and Deena were talking about their adventures, and seeing that look, Ed had decided they were close to leaving.
"That's you, Ed."
Deena strokes Ed's back while she is so good.
"Lord Ed is brilliant, I can't lose either."
Atra was burning a mysterious sense of confrontation on Ed.
The carriage was removed from the sub-empty depot and the three boarded when they finished attaching to Ed.
Though we thought about stopping by the inn to secure meals, we decided to head straight to the realtor to tell Hula only about our departure because the food and ingredients we had prepared so far had been stored in the sub-empty storage.
The interaction with Hula was as usual, we knew each other on our own and the conversation went smoothly. Neither did the letter seem to be a burden to Hula looking around at the property in the city, which he was comfortable with.
He crept through the gate where he had returned the other day, taking care and the guards dropped him off and left for the line.
There was no drop-off this time, but that didn't bother me, and my sense of anticipation for the journey wrapped the line.
On the road, Atra will also be an adult wolf size and walk alongside Ed. There were some adventurers along the way, but they were judged to be beast demons because they were wearing necklaces, and they were not particularly concerned about stopping them.
The necklace was also a type of magic prop, and if the wearer was a registered beast demon, there was no problem with the size because even if the size of the body changed due to growth, etc., it would automatically change its size as well.
The journey continues smoothly this time, following the same route as when we headed for the kingdom of the Beasts, but after a few days past the halfway point, Atra stopped the line.
'I think it was about time... everyone wait here'
Atra was off the road looking for something, exploring the surroundings.
Aotearoa and the others wait on the spot as Atra told them. There are no signs of demons around, and Atra returns by the time she was blurry and looking at the view but dozens of minutes would have passed.
'Seems sure here. Some scaffolding is bad if you stay in the carriage, so it would be nice to try the carriage and all head on foot'
Nodding at Atra's suggestion, Aeta removes the carriage from Ed and stores it in the sub-empty depot when she confirms that it is not popular around her.
"That's good. Okay, well, I'm excited to see what kind of place they're taking us."
"That's right. You can't imagine the difference between a city and a village."
Deena also nods at Aotearoa's words. It was a fact known to many that dwarfs were parted into numerous settlements, but the reality was not very well communicated because few had ever been to that settlement.
'Not really, because there doesn't seem to be any contact with the outside world. It should be rare for some to welcome people outside, even if they sometimes head out to the city with a buyout or something'
Atra speaks as she leads the way forward, so she couldn't read the expression, but hearing the words makes Deena anxious.
"Is it okay for us to go?
"That's what I thought too... but it doesn't start with you not trying anyway"
Aotea said so shrugging her shoulders, but Deena's expression remained anxious.
"Yeah, right"
"Don't worry too much, if you have to, Atra will do something about it"
Aotea joked and said as she stroked Deena's head, trying to cheer her up.
'Don't worry, Lord Deena. If I talk, I'm sure it'll be acceptable. Worst of all, even if it's unacceptable, you won't be hostile'
Atra also looks back and speaks to Deena with a confident look.
"Both of you...... thank you. That's right, it's no big deal compared to the inferior words of the nobles of the Elf Country."
Deena would have joked, but Aotearoa had nothing but a laugh that made her cheek snap when she heard the words.
After I got off the road, I still didn't see a dwarf settlement that would have walked for about two hours.
"Hey, Atra. Is it this way?
Atra nodded forward to Ethereal's question several times. And the next spinned word became the final answer to that question.
"I see you."
The only thing Atra showed was that the grass was thriving unchanged. But Ethereum and Deena stared at the sway of that space and felt it.
"I don't normally find this."
"If Atra doesn't tell you, you're just missing it"
The two of them were surprised by the precision of that junction. If it was a normal junction, it would be a great sway because of the use of powerful magic, and you can tell right from the outside, but this was strong as a junction, but its sway was kept to a minimum.
'This should go through perfectly well if there is no hostility and you are aware of the existence of the junction. Let's go.'
A line into the kingdom in the lead of Atra. As the saying goes, we could have gone through the juncture without any problems, but on the other side of it was awaiting unexpected developments.
"What the hell is this all about?
Aotearoa says in a frightened voice, but the Aotearoas were surrounded by a dwarf with weapons.
