"To be honest, though I may be rude towards my benefactor, I also have doubts. Bye... but I think it's enough to believe if you look at the presence of Lady Atra and the power of the two of you. Ask me any questions, and I will answer them as long as I know."
Zames looked back at the three with a determined look that it was now time to settle his belly.
"Then let me hear it. Gregor, Marvin could use some kind of autobiography, a book, whatever, but have you left him any kind of legend? About the battle a thousand years ago."
In Aotearoa's words, Zames meditates his eyes as he touches his own beard, often contemplating. Neither did the Ethereals ever rush to wait for Zam's answer.
"... Yes, but what are you going to do when you know that?
That's what Zames returns after a lot of silence. I said I'd answer anything. I didn't mean to withdraw the foreword, but I still couldn't help but ask. This story was the reason why the dwarves divided the settlements and why they continued to be targeted for years.
"I don't care what they say. About yourself, I think you have every right to know?
"Yes, you were. Excuse me, but it's a serious secret that only some of the dwarves know about. I'll be very careful."
Zames said he was convinced by words that Aotearoa was a brave man a thousand years ago, but regrets himself for forgetting to ask about it because he didn't believe it somewhere in his heart.
"No, I promised I'd answer whoever you are. Let's talk about it. I want to talk to you about one thing first. It's my age, but I'm just over 200."
"Two hundred!?
"No! You're a dwarf, aren't you?
Ethereum and Deena were surprised by the words, but it was also natural. It is commonly known knowledge that when it comes to dwarves, they have a shorter life span than other races. It was common sense.
"Exactly. Bye. But this isn't just for me. We Marvin's immediate family have lived for generations. I hear you know Gregor lived hundreds of years, too."
Aotearoa looked at Atra reflexively.
"Um, in my memory, Gregor Marvin should have lived 200 years since we met."
At the time I was traveling with Aotearoa, I could have expected that to be the only time I lived to be nearly three hundred, given that I was quite old.
"What the hell is this all about?
"Of course I'll answer you. Bye. Joe Gregor Marvin created a magic tool for long life to keep a variety of heirlooms. And we've embedded it here for generations."
Zames roughly rolled up his jacket and pointed at his heart. There was after the surgery and it was slightly swollen to snoring because of the implantation of demonic props.
"There's only one thing about this, so it's a one-child heirloom. It is said that the existence of this is one of the reasons why we dwarfs are targeted. But I didn't expect you to tell anyone other than the clan about this or the inheritance in my place."
Zames will look somewhere far away.
"Oh, excuse me. You've missed the point, let me tell you a story from my ancestor Gregor... first of all about the battle against the Demon King a thousand years ago"
Aotea slightly caught on to the "first" part, but waited for it to continue without breaking her lower back of the story.
"We hear Gregor fought demonic executives during the battle a thousand years ago. And I fought ready to stab him wrong, but he managed to save his life thanks to the demonic props he was wearing. Bye. After a long break, when we went to the demon king, it was the moment to stab the demon king in the face."
Ethereum and Deena continue to snort silently because it was as inferred from the information gathered so far.
"I tried to speak to him right away, but he said there was a figure there that I didn't expect. Bye. He said it was Delbert, the prince of the people and brother of Francis, the princess known as the Virgin."
This was also something I knew, but by asking again, Aeta had something to tremble about somewhere.
"And Delbert took the lives of a weak elf, beast, and dragon man brave man, manipulated his sister Francisle, and sent back the brave men of different worlds. Surely the name of that brave man is Sorta......!? But what if you are Lord Sauta, the brave man of the other world!
Zames arrived at Ethereum's identity from his story and surprised him to get here.
"Oh, yeah. More than that, please."
I'm surprised Aotearoa made a light affirmation, but I remember it was on the way. I cough one up before returning to the conversation.
"Whoa, after each brave man was killed or repatriated, the Virgin, who almost lost her magic using repatriation magic and was about to pass out, said she was taken that life by her brother's hand. Bye. Gregor, who saw the prince's face, said he couldn't stop trembling on his madly filled face."
Zames was trembling himself, as if he had seen it himself.
"When Gregor secretly created and buried the tombs of the brave men, he left behind various books to convey this truth. Of course for the dwarves, but they also left a stop at the Land of Beasts, Dwarves, People, and Elves. When I stopped in Elf's country, she said it broke her heart to see the Elf's brave sister sealed...... that, maybe you're the brave sister you are?
Following Aotearoa's identity, Zames confirms that he also reached Deena's identity. Deena nodded deeply that she was right.
"Then you two really... no, it's nothing. More than that."
Zames embarrassed himself to speak the language of suspicion and returned to the story.
"The legacy that prevails in the world is that warriors from different worlds have been manipulated to take the lives of other warriors, but Gregor is the only survivor to know the truth, so the dwarves have been targeted."
Aotearoa questions the word.
"If you were then, who are you after now?
The situation of the human race is changing, with a country that was in the past doomed, a new country born and a major change in history. On top of that, I had no idea who was continuously targeting dwarves.
"Um, that's..."
