It was only in the evening that we arrived, as we slowly made our way from the woods to the barracks and proceeded with a lunch break along the way, as we had done last time.
"The ones there, stop!
As before, the guards at the station looked like they were obnoxious. Everyone stands ready to release their weapons at any time. The man in charge of this scene is signaled with his face, and one of the guards peeks inside the carriage to confirm.
"Captain, there are four women in there, three people in one elf, and one Dwarf!
The confirmed man speaks up and tells the captain how many people are on the line. He was young, and Ethereal had never seen Deena's face, of course, because Ethereal Tails had become the service of this post after the kingdom of Elves. And the Karenas all three wore camouflage bracelets.
"One elf...? And excuse me!
The man called captain also checks inside the carriage. He saluted and greeted Deena because there was a familiar face there.
"Deena, can you get that one out?
Deena greets the captain of the precinct before disembarking from the carriage she hands over the dagger she took out of her bag to Aotearoa.
"Go ahead."
Ethereum nodded at Deena for her intentions.
"We met during this time, but you're in charge here, aren't you? Look at this."
Towards the captain of the station Aeta showed him the dagger he had previously received from the king of the elves.
"I understand, sir. Dear Deanna, please come through because those with this dagger are told to come through."
Seeing Dagger and Deena's face, the captain of the station remembered Ethereal's face and rushed to issue permission for passage. When the guards on the spot are instructed, the next step is to run to the immigration office in the back and talk about clearance for passage.
The guards, unaware of the circumstances, were looking at the condition with a suspicious look, but convinced that there would be something when they saw the captain's hasty face, they paved the way to stay out of the way of the Ethereal Tails.
"Come on, let's go"
Ethereal progresses naturally, but his companions, excluding Deena and Laurie, were astonished.
"Oh, what the hell did you do?
Karena was most surprised to know well that there were no passage permits in this country, and she mouthed the question.
"Uh, I made a bit of a slip. I got something for you a while ago."
Aotea showed the royal mark of chirali and dagger toward Karena, who was embarking on herself.
"It!? Why would you do that?"
"Do you have it? I have all sorts of ears here, so let's just talk about it in a calm place. It's not a big reason."
Aeta interrupted the conversation and encouraged her to move on. Karena also goes back into the carriage when she thinks and nods about it.
A row of Ethereal Tails, almost no-check and passing through the lockup, was also noted by the elves up there. The Karena family, who had felt their presence was noticed, seemed not to be relieved that they were using disguised bracelets, and were hissing themselves.
Except for one more.
"Hmm, it's been a long time since I've been home."
Laurie approached your table and looked around her face from there.
"I'm excited because I'm new here -!
Leila was excitedly shaking her body while holding the reins. The excitement culminates where the sacred tree has been seen.
"Hey, what's that!! Wow! Sota, Deena, there's a huge tree!!
"That's a sacred tree. By the time I was there, it was smaller, but it seemed to have grown to that point in the long months."
Deena gave a commentary, but Leila's ear only got about half of it.
Also, the craftsmen are equally surprised, and Antogal and Bogdi are walking with their mouths open. Alisa had similarly opened her mouth when she saw the sacred tree from inside the carriage.
From there, things went smoothly without any obstacles, and the line arrived in the capital of the Elf country, 'Gilnor'.
"Well, shall we head to Naruas' workshop for now? I wish I was there..."
"Um, if you haven't been called to the castle, maybe you have a master. Basically, we do a lot of research."
Lowry is the longest living with Naruas these days, so I decide to believe that word and head to the workshop.
"Well, don't worry, I have the keys, even if you weren't there."
And this word holds my back.
"Naruas, Arezel, are you there? We're going in."
The door to Naruas' house is open, he speaks and then goes inside. I hear voices from the living room when I hang out in the basement. At this stage, Karena, Laurie and Elmia had their disguised bracelets off.
"Are you over here?"
Aotea strokes Ed's head when he keeps the carriage in the same spot as last time before knocking on the living room door. I got a response from inside after I reacted to it.
"Yes...... who is it?
The voice was Allezel.
"Hey, Arezel. Now we've got a lot of people coming."
Speaking to Ethereum, Arezel is surprised to see her eyes open.
"Arezel, what is it... Lord Sorta! Isn't that Lord Sota!!
Naruas, peering across the door over Arezel's head, noticed Ethereum and raised his voice.
"Yay, I'm home"
"Master, long time no see"
Now Laurie and Karena speak to Naruas over Ethereal's shoulder.
"To Laurie...... Karena!!
Naruas' surprise was by far the biggest since Ethereum met him.
"What!? Or, Master Karena!!
Arezel also had an admiration for Karena, and was surprised that the person was in front of her, and more than that, she had pampered her mouth and lost her voice.
"Uh, for now, there's a number of people besides these two, so can you let me in? All in all... the nine of us are here"
Hearing the number of people, Narus and Arezel were once again surprised, but Ethereal Tai's opinion was also the best, passing a line inside.
