Arc 21: Women’s battle

Chapter 173: Balum tribe, and the Spirit of the Great Tree

We easily won the first day and were able to advance to the next round after getting three victories. Or rather, with the exception of the vanguard Rue, the spearhead Elsie, and the center Yae no one else had fought. All of the matches were ended with three wins. The so-called victories based on straight wins.

As far as I could see, we were blessed with the opponents since those weren’t that great.

「I hope we can keep this rhythm and win tomorrow as well」

I muttered while watching the sunset which brought the day to a close. This is the forest near the river away from the Deity Tree region. All the matches have ended, and everyone starts preparing the meals.

The tribes who lost their matches came back to this forest as well and began to cook their own meals. I guess they are going to watch the matches till the end since they have already come here.

(TL: Wow Touya didn’t you forget about the rule?? they want to see the rule as it may affect them)

We could have returned to the castle and have our meals there, but we decided to partic.i.p.ate in partaking the meal with Rauri tribe since they already went hunting the prey for us.

I take out a barbecue set from [Storage], ignite the charcoal and prepare it for cooking. Then I take out the seasoning like salt and pepper, as well as the sauce.

Eventually, the Rauri tribespeople came back after catching the prey that looked like rabbits and turtle doves. Because the only ones allowed to hunt here when it is not the time of [Pruning Ceremony] are [Referee tribe], there seems to be a lot of prey. Naturally, a large quant.i.ty of prey is hunted during these three days, but it seems to return to its original numbers by the next [Pruning Ceremony].

「Having such cooking which is overflown with rural beauty is nice once in a while, don’t you think so?」

「You are right~ Ah, Touya-san, this one is burning」

Yumina is gallantly a.s.sisting me with grilling. Given that both of us look like women when watched from the third person’s point of view, I hope we are not seen like we have a strange relations.h.i.+p.

Since the nutrition based solely on meat is incomplete, I have taken out the vegetables such as pumpkins, onions and green pepper from [Storage]. After simply cutting them, I skewer them together with the meat and then eat it with homemade BBQ sauce. Delicious.

「Something like this is a first for me, but it looks enjoyable」

Rue smiles while apportioning the meat on her saucer. It should be unusual for her who has lived her life as the Princess of Regulus. I am delighted she is enjoying herself.

As for me, however, I can’t calm down with there are only women being around me after all. The level is a bit too high for me to enjoy it. Though if it was Sen’Ou-heika of Restia, he would likely to happily jump in.

With that said, I heard a voice making a racket behind me. When I turned around, I saw muscular men fighting each other. So it is a quarrel. How irritating. Do that in some other place or something.

「This many tribes have gathered, so one or two quarrels is a daily occurrence」

Having said it, Pam bites into the spit-roasted meat. Accidentally speaking, those who partic.i.p.ate at [Pruning Ceremony] must not do anything if anything happens. Because of that, there is such a rule stating that the companions from the fellow tribes will tidy up the occurring disputes. Then, it means that the ones fighting there are not the contestants. Well, it doesn’t matter anyway.

「What is that? I did think there are some weird people here. So they are from the Rauri tribe, right?」

Pa.s.sing next to the quarreling people, other muscular men have come here. Their upper bodies resemble an inverted triangle tempered with brawny muscles. On top of that, their scars and tattoos running along their bodies increase their overwhelming presence even more. In addition to that, their heads are shaved and look like mohawks. The evilest style ever.

「What business you have, Balum tribe」

Pam points her glare at the coming men while chewing meat. Are those guys the Balum tribe?

Certainly, they are looking at everyone here with eyes full of superiority. There are also some guys who are smirking and laughing. I decided in my heart to definitely not become the same as those guys.

「We had considered that you wouldn’t show up at [Pruning Ceremony] this time. Weren’t the prominent warriors of the village done in by the likes of some magic beast as I heard? What a pathetic thing. As one could expect of women, after all」

「b.a.s.t.a.r.d....... Are you insulting the fallen warriors?」

Following Pam, the other Rauri tribespeople lower their bodies a little. They do it in a way to be able to switch to battle at any time. Having guessed their intentions, Balum tribe also nimbly a.s.sumed guard stances. An ambivalent atmosphere gathers between the both sides.

「I don’t have such an intention in particular. I simply think that we of the Balum tribe would have caught such a magic beast with a moment’s delay」

「Ha. Not knowing anything is a foolishness by itself. Even if you from the Balum tribe were grouped up, you wouldn’t be able to match that crystal magic beast. You would end up annihilated to the last one of you 」

「What did you say!」

Now they are exchanging verbal insults. Thumbs are flying here and there. They are exactly like cats and dogs, aren’t they?

「Quit messing around! There is no way the Balum tribe wouldn’t take it down if the Rauri tribe could defeat it!」

「Although it is Regrettable, it wasn’t us who had defeated that crystal magic beast. It was Touya who is sitting there」

「Ah!?」

Oi-oi. Do not wave at me. The gazes of the Balum tribe turned towards me at once.

「This woman?」

A man from the Balum tribe came up to me. This man whose height is probably around 190 cm looks down on me with an impolite scrutinizing gaze. Eventually, he expressed a disgusting smile.

「Aren’t you quite a good woman? I like you!」

「I feel gross!」

「What did you say!?」

I instinctively let out my voice. But it can’t be helped, right !? When you look at it from my view of point, a muscular man says something like that to me!! w.i.l.l.i.e.s are running through my entire body!!

「This b.i.t.c.h!」

The angry man extends his hand towards me and tries to catch my arm.

「Don’t touch me!」

「Guboue!?」

I kicked the man’s abdomen, blowing him a few meters away. There is no way I could adjust the power. I felt the danger towards my body! In a different meaning!

「This b.a.s.t.a.r.d!」

「Get her!」

I nimbly dodge the Balum tribesmen who are attacking all at once and send them flying one by one with a kick. I don’t want to strike them with my hands. Since I am disgusted to even touch them!

I wonder what is it, it is scary to be glared by such muscular men in a s.e.xual meaning. It doesn’t even matter whether you are a man or a woman!

「This b.i.t.c.h....... Catch her with everyone!」

『Uooooooooooooo!!』

A wave of muscles is coming. Ueee!!

「s.h.i.+eld!」

『Guuuuu!?』

I stop them with an invisible s.h.i.+eld and the men who were jumping here fall to the ground just like that. Ah~ it was disgusting.

「Balum tribe is not that big of a deal. Aren’t you in this state with just Touya?」

「Dam.......」

Pam is laughing at the remaining Balum tribesmen like she is provoking them. Oi~, Do not agitate them!

The remaining tribesmen had deeply red angry faces. They were done by only one woman (on the outward appearance). So there is no way they won’t get angry as they are from the tribe where man is the dominating one.

「Take those battered guys and quickly leave. It will be a bother if some incapable men stay here」

I totally agree with Pam on that. I have a feeling I will have a macho phobia if it stays like this.

「d.a.m.n it, we will remember this!」

Balum tribe left while dragging along the collapsed men.

Uu, that was unpleasant. Those eyes of the ill-breed men felt disgusting that much. Let’s be careful so that I do not turn out like that myself.

「Were those the Balum tribe? They didn’t seem that great」

「There were no contestants among them. Those fellows are underlings even among the Balum tribe. They are just brats who haven’t grown up yet」

Pam answered Elsie as such, but I couldn’t believe my ears. If I am not mistaken, don’t they treat those who turn 15 years old as adults in the Great Forest Sea!? Eh, even though they look like that, are those guys younger than me!? They looked like terrifyingly rough ossans!?

That’s impossible........ There is no way they are junior high school students....... What kind of training are they doing? I somehow lost my appet.i.te.........

==================Scene Change==============

After the barbecue ends, several people are going to be on the lookout and retire to sleep in turns.

Though it is to watch out for the forest beasts, it will also serve as protection from the surprise attacks of the other tribes as well. Naturally, it is not like all tribes will try to do something like that, but some of them apparently do such a thing silently as well.

We could return to the castle with [Gate] by ourselves, but disregarding this matter after hearing about it would leave a bad aftertaste.

I have set up [s.h.i.+eld] barrier around us and decided to sleep in turns with several people. That’s because [s.h.i.+eld] is only a temporary preventive measure. The five partic.i.p.ants have been exempted from being on the lookout since we can’t have them be fatigued tomorrow. So we have them rest till the morning. Ah, even if Suu was up, it would be meaningless, so we let her sleep as well.

Right now, several of the Rauri tribe enclosed the bursting bonfire and paid attention to the surroundings.

Next to them, Lindsey and Yumina were making quiet sleeping sounds while being wrapped in blankets after having stood guard till some time ago.

Suddenly, I felt a queer presence. This feeling.......

I stood up and walked to the depths of the forest. The Rauri tribespeople who were standing on the watch together with me turned their eyes towards me for only a moment. It seems they thought it was a toilet and didn’t particularly say anything.

Having advanced deeper and deeper into the dark forest, I understood that presence was gradually getting stronger. There is no mistake, this is the same as Ramisshu.......

I stopped at an open s.p.a.ce deep in the forest.

It exists. Here. In this place.

「Can you hear my voice?」

The moonlight began to s.h.i.+ne on me who was standing in the darkness, and all trees in the vicinity were stirred by the wind.

A s.h.i.+ning green light faintly surfaced in the midst of the moonlight.

『Who are you?』

The green light slowly changes its shape. Before long, it has changed into the figure of a young girl with emerald-green hair. Her whole body is emitting green phosph.o.r.escence including a one-piece-like dress she is wearing. Both eyes also s.h.i.+ne brilliantly like jade.

「Spirit.......right?」

『Yes. I am the spirit of the great tree that govern this Great Forest Sea. I am also the incarnation of the Great Deity Tree』

「As I thought. I thought I felt a presence similar to the spirit of darkness I fought in Ramisshu. Well, that one was more muddy and stagnant」

Though I felt a small presence from the great deity tree as well, it felt more clearly than the one before me. Would I have not felt it so much if it didn’t manifest like this?

『You fought? With spirit of darkness.......? Then, are you the one who freed that child?』

「Did you say “freed”? I just rushed in and purified it though」

『The spirits are immortal existences. The spirit of darkness will eventually return to this world too. More than that....... Who are you? This appearance is a pretense, isn’t it? And what is that power slightly emanating from your whole body.......?』

Eh? Ah, is she able see the divine power by any chance? I used magic such as [s.h.i.+eld]. The divine power might have leaked out at that time. I cancel [Mirage] and expose my original form.

「I am Mochizuki Touya. I am working as the Sovereign King for Brunhild Dukedom to the north from here. Due to slightly complicated circ.u.mstances, I have a strange const.i.tution, but I am a human」

『What exactly you mean by that......?』

The spirit of the great tree expresses a confusion all over her face. Umm, what shall I do? The explanation is troublesome. I don’t know whether she will believe me if I talk about Kami-sama.

But on the other hand, there is no reason to especially ask Kami-sama to come...... say, Ah, there is one other G.o.d. Though I am not sure about that one.

I opened 「Gate」 and dropped here the person who was most likely lying down on her bed.

「Ouch! W-w-what ~nanoyo!? Huh, is it you Touya-kun ~nanoyo?」

The dropped Karen-nee-san looks around in half asleep eyes. What are those pajamas full of pink heart marks?

If I think about it carefully, although she is a low-level G.o.d, I still treated her quite roughly. When I look at this person (G.o.d), I don’t feel she is that important-looking. She is irresponsible, likes to do mischievous things, s.n.a.t.c.hes foods, and she is selfish.

But I can’t bring myself to hate her. Perhaps, I feel like she is also my family. Maybe because she treats me like her younger brother.

「Karen-nee-san, can you do that “Pika~tte” thing like Kami-sama?」

「Hoi? Pika~te? Do you mean the “Divinity Release” 《しんいかいほう》?」

「It is probably that」

A dazzling light is released from Nee-san’s entire body. It isn’t as great as the one Kami-sama has, but it is still amazing. Ah, it feels like that even though she is like that, she is still one of the G.o.ds.

「......Are you thinking of something rude ~noyo?」

「Soorr~y. F~rgiive mee~e. L~et me~e go~o」

She is pinching my cheeks. It hurts.

As I rubbed my released cheeks, the spirit of the great tree was prostrating itself on the ground to the side.

I guess it is effective even against the spirits. The G.o.d’s influence of is strong. Even if that G.o.d is Karen-nee-san.

「Are you thinking of rude things again ~noyo?」

「A~m surrrr~i. F~rgiive mee~e?」

G.o.ds, I can’t make light of them.

Chapter 509

"Oh, look, look!

"Wait, Lynne!

Late in the day, I let Mr. Takasaka take a paragraph of the work he turned around, and as I was drinking tea on the balcony, two people, Lynne and Erna, came running from the back of the room.

We're both dressed as maids, not our usual outfits. What is it, what is it?

"Well, cute! You look great!

"Hmm. He's cute. It suits you well."

Yumina and Su, who were together, praise at will. Pretty, huh? You can't say that in those words! If you put this feeling into words,

"How's it going, Mr. O'Hara? This."

"Hey, cute"

d.a.m.n, I've got a r.e.t.a.r.ded looking return. Well, that's a fact. Oh, you're cute. It's not your head, is it?

"Kohon. What's the matter, that clothes. Is that Lindsey's handmade?

"Yeah. When I said I'd help Mr. Rene with her work, Linze, your mother made it for me. Pa Pa."

Elna answered my question. [M] It's all right... Probably really made it in a few minutes. Linze's sewing skills are now divine level. No, there's actually a G.o.d.

But help with the maid Rene? Well, I'm certainly close to my age, and it's not strange to get along...

Was Rene ten or eleven now?

"It feels weird working with Mr. Rene as a kid"

"Yeah. It's like someone else."

"Oh, really?

Well, you two know Rene is Rene more than a decade from now. He'll look different before and after the growing season.

"Um, personality in one way or another......? We know Mr. Rene, because he's the perfect maid. He's also our courtesy teacher."

"What!? Is that Rene?

Raise your voice like a surprise. Shh. I can't seem to believe the future for my sister, who was making me call her "Su Sister" and let her blow the precious wind.

Well, I know how you feel. Because I can't believe that Rene, who I also called "Winter Night Brother," would be such a perfect maid.

"Mr. Rene can do anything. Cooking, sewing, fighting and courtesy are top notch. It's a little too hard on us, though."

"I see. That's why Rene's an educator because she's tough."

Yumina nods as convinced.

"Lynne was just p.i.s.sed off because she skips her manipulation studies a lot. Mr. Rene is sweet."

"Mmm."

My sister Lynne swells at the point of my sister Elna. As we relieved ourselves of the smiling sight, we opened the door of the room and the person, Rene, appeared.

"Um, isn't Erna and Lynne over here?

I told Rene that they were my relatives. [M] [Mirage] should also look like a normal child with a granted badge (though now it's a brooch). Calling us "Father" and "Mother" is like an old nickname.

"We both have a maid chief waiting for us. Shall we go quickly?

"Oh, you shouldn't! Come on, Elna, sister!

"Yeah. Then I'll go, Fathers, Mothers"

"Oh, wait a minute. Let me take a picture!

I spoke to Lynne as she turned her heels and tried to run out. Can I miss such a precious shot? Then I take the smartphone out of my nose.

"Oh, yeah. Mr. Rene, come in, too!

"Yes!?

Elna and Lynne solidify both sides by attracting surprise Rene with or without her. Yes, keep it up...

Cut the pastry and shutter. Yeah, I guess that's a good three-shot.

"Send that to me later!

That being said, the three rushed out of the room with a b.u.mmer. It's like a whirlwind.

"That Rene...... The pa.s.sage of time changes people..."

Su sighs emotionally at the tea.

"Maybe that's true, too, because Lene is originally a serious solid person and a hard worker. I think he had the qualities of a first-cla.s.s maid."

I often say, "The environment makes people," but I don't know because we're in this environment. Because there are people there who can become masters, both in made-to-measure skill and in combat. Because the G.o.ds usually walk.

I wonder if Rene also has some kind of G.o.d blessing. Per Uncle Kosuke. I heard they often take care of the fields together.

"But I envy you...... Ha... when will our children come..."

Yumina sighs deeply. Hachi is the same as Hachi who hasn't come, but Hachi's child, Hachi, has some sightings. The only children I can't capture at all are Yumina and Su, the first and second children from under my child.

"No, Sister Yumina. From the kids' conversation, it's likely they're already here."

"Huh!? Then why aren't you coming to see us!?

"I don't care if you ask me rubbishly...... Is there a reason you don't want to come, or are you caught up in something..."

Why don't you want to come... Please don't just say 'I hate your father'.

"Mr. Winter Night, can't you [recall] the kids remember and look for me?

"Hmm, because Grandma Jiang forbids me at that time...... They told me not to worry because all the kids will be here safely."

[Recall] is the magic of having the other person's memory conceded. I guess you can use that to find out what it looks like, and then you can look for it in [SEARCH].

"Either me or Su's kid is a boy, right? You forgot to go home obsessed with playing..."

"Uhm. It could be. But Alice tells me she's a solid boy for her age, Kuyuan. Don't you think it's funny?"

"So you're involved in an extra disaster or something?

"He's my son for winter and night. That could be enough…"

"Whoa."

Don't take it personally. Although the child's mother would be either of you in the first place.

"Well, I can't help but think about it. We have to wait."

"Right. By the way, Mr. Winter Night, please give me the picture just now"

"Oh, wow."

"Yes, sir."

I sent them the photo I took earlier. [M] You've had more pictures since the kids arrived. I'll send it to those apps who share photos because they want everyone to see it too.

"What about the other kids today?

"Frey goes to the training ground with Mr. Hilda and Mr. Yae, as usual. Arcia also prepares lunch in the kitchen with Mr. Lou. Yos.h.i.+no and Kuhn are supposed to be in Babylon."

I know c.o.o.n, but Yos.h.i.+no's in Babylon, too? Did you run some errands?

I was a little concerned, so I decided to go too.

I thought c.o.o.n would be in the 'workshop' and went, surprisingly, Josino was there too.

Next to the work-equipped golem that Kuhn was a.s.sembling, "Armed Gear," he used the "Workshop" tool and made something.

"Ah, old man"

"What are you making?

"It's an instrument. Here."

Yos.h.i.+no gave it to me. It was a small box with a bunch of elongated metal plates attached to it. This is the instrument?

There was a hole in the middle, like a guitar, and the plates of metal were regularly lined up in a V-shape. I also feel like I saw it somewhere......

Press the plate of metal and it's quite stiff and doesn't make any particular noise. How do you play this?

"Oh, don't push it. It's called" Hajiji. "

"Play?"

Playing down at the tip of the nail, as I was told, the pin, and the clear tone sounded. I see, is this how you make the sound?

"'Kalimba' is an instrument. Don't you know? My dad told me about this."

"Oh, really?

Not me. I guess that means you taught me the future. [M] "Kalimba"? It's like I've never heard of it.

I took out my smartphone and connected it to the Earth's Internet to do a search. Oh, this one.

Kalimba. An African instrument? Sam piano, or also called hand orgol...... Sure sounds the same way Orgol does.

Oh, well. My grandfather's favorite band of vocals used this instrument. I've seen a few live videos.

"Does Yosino also make instruments?

"Yeah. I can do the easy stuff myself. The hard part is asking Sister Kuhn to make it in [modeling]. I like to play instruments."

Really?

He also likes to sing as much as his mother, Cherry Blossom, but one way or another Yosino prefers to play the instrument. Um, the influence of Yasuke, the music G.o.d?

"Can you play something?

"Fine. In this song, then."

When I asked, Yos.h.i.+no started playing songs in Kalimba.

Sounds slow and clear, creating a beautiful melody. Is this song... "Cannon" by Paffelbell?

Johann Puffelbell's "Cannon". Correctly, it's the first song in "Three Violins and Canons and Zigni Longitudes for Percussion Ba.s.s".

"Canon" refers to the manner in which the songs played by the main voice are carried on one after the other.

Paffelbell's 'Canon', also known as the Golden Code, creates a simple but beautiful melody and sounds comfortable thanks to Yosino's Kalimba.

Brilliant performance. You can play well with just two little thumbs...... that?

Suddenly I heard a flute tone from somewhere. I mean, there's only one person who does this.

Raising his gaze from Yos.h.i.+no, Brother Songsuke was joining the performance at some point, as expected. As usual, you don't brace, you G.o.d "one"......

Listen quietly to my daughter from the future and her performance with the G.o.d of Music. Isn't this a very luxurious moment?

Polon… and at the same time that the last sound was over, I applauded Josino and the others. No, this is brilliant. That was a good performance.

Not only am I applauding Kuhn and Rosetta from "The Workshop" who was listening beside me. Yeah, why don't c.o.o.n stop applauding in arm gear?

"Eh heh. You can light it."

"No, no, why not? That was a great performance."

Now I'm in. A concert with my daughter...... this looks like fun.

Looking up at the c.o.o.n while on the armed gear, I ask.

"Can c.o.o.n play an instrument?

"A little bit. Because your mother likes to listen to music."

Apparently some of the kids are still interested in music and not so much.

There doesn't seem to be much interest around Hachiyun, Frey or Lynne.

"More than that, Father! How about this! This is Beowulf, a heavily armed gear!

c.o.o.n made me move to brag about the armed gear he wore.

Big arms, thick legs. I'm just not saying it's a power type. G.o.dd.a.m.n body. What a strange imbalance it creates, coupled with the body of a small c.o.o.n.

"What are you going to fight..."

"Not yet, especially with this. But I've never had more power."

Hmm, are you considering fighting the apostle of the Evil G.o.d as this child? I'm a bad parent to let a child worry about this.

Immersed in mild self-loathing, the nostalgic smartphone signaled an incoming call.

Hmm? From His Majesty King Ferzen?

Yes, h.e.l.lo.

"Ooh, Your Majesty. Our finished Magic Train, it's time to ask for that unloading. to Belfast and Leaf Leasing '

"Oh, speaking of which... I get it. I'll be right there."

The world's first (actually, it was already built five thousand years ago, and there is something similar on the Western continent) Magic Train cars Nos. 1 and 2 were built in Ferzen and were to run between Belfast and Leaf Leases.

The tracks between the two countries had already been completed by the wizards of the earthly attributes, and all they had to do was wait for the delivery from Ferzen.

Naturally, I was supposed to take on the metamagic. How about that, I totally forgot about the commotion here.

Hang up King Ferzen's phone and face the c.o.o.ns.

"I'm going as far as Ferzen to pick up the Magic Train for a second. I'm sure it'll be over soon, but lunch first..."

He tried to ask me to take it, and I saw him! and the hand of the coun that can be raised upright. Originally, arm gear hands.

"Me too! I want to go too, Father!

"Yeah, but just bring it in to Belfast and Leafleash, and let it run at a later date, huh?

"That's fine! I want to take a picture of a s.h.i.+ny freshly grated demon guide train!

Was my daughter a shooting iron? No, in this kid's case, it's not just the train, I guess.

Well, it's not gonna get in the way, okay?

"What about Yos.h.i.+no?

"I want to adjust the pitch a little bit more, so pa.s.s. c.o.o.n, hey, you should go."

Right. Apparently Yosino is not interested in the Magic Train. Ordinary girls do.

"Shall we go then?... you can leave the armed gear behind, right?

"Er... I wanted to show off to His Majesty King Ferzen..."

Don't. It's gonna be a ha.s.sle. Whatever His Majesty King Ferzen is, because Elisia, the queen, will definitely be interested. I've got my hands full on a lot of things right now. Why don't you do it again?

Convincing the reluctant Kuhn, we jumped at the [gate] to the Ferzen Magic Kingdom.

◇ ◇ ◇

Then a week later. We had come to the king's capital of Belfast, Alefis. To attend the opening ceremony of the Magic Train, which connects Belfast Reef Leases.

The test operation has already been completed, with two tracks run by the Magic Train and stretched out of the newly built station building.

It is the route from this station, which takes the name of the w.a.n.g capital and is named Alephis Station, to Bern Station in the Imperial capital of Leaf Lease, Bern.

Along the way, we stop in four cities and reach the end of the line in just under five hours.

At the station's home, its Magic Train One, the Rhinebell, couples pa.s.senger cars and waits for the departure time now or now.

Overall, there is a blue line running on the silver body. Slightly rounded shape, no chimney like SL. but from the spray holes attached to both sides of the body, the sparkling ether remnants were released as if it were steam.

Its st.u.r.dy body is reminiscent of a steam train that is likely to even come out on steampunk. Actually, it runs on a magic battery, so it seems somewhat close to the train. Sounds quiet, too.

"I mean, the pictures would be good already, c.o.o.n. How long have you been shooting this?"

"Just a little more! Because it's the best from this angle!

I sighed deeply at my daughter, Kuhn, who took pictures of the magic train that unleashed the remnants of Aether. I also took pictures the other day during unloading...... What are we going to do with so many identical shots?

This opening ceremony is supposed to be a memorial event and we're going to be on board as well.

It was originally just me and my wife, Yumina, but I couldn't help but get the c.o.o.ns on board. And Alice at last. Ende also rides as Alice's escort, but this guy is as an adventurer hired to escort pa.s.sengers.

Starting in Belfast, he is supposed to board dozens from Belfast n.o.bles and large merchants, along with his family, starting with the Duke of Ortrinde, the father of Su.

So not only c.o.o.n, but also the children of other n.o.bles and merchants, were excited about the first magic trains they saw.

"Ed, you seem happy too."

In the arms of Ellen, Su's mother, the d.u.c.h.ess of Ortrinde, sitting on the bench of the platform, Edward, Su's brother, was laughing when you saw the Magic Train properly.

"Oh, does Ed like the Magic Train, too? We're not getting on that one now."

Su holds your little hand, Ed. I watched that Ed as Lynne and Alice peeked in.

"Wow, you're cute to Ed."

"Little Ed sounds weird."

The Duke of Ortrinde twists his neck to the two statements.

"You're in Ed?

"Oh, Father! Well, isn't it time to get in?

Speak to the Duke like Su panicked. Yabba, and Lynne and Alice came this way away from the spot.

"d.a.m.n... be careful"

"Sorry, I followed..."

"Ed used to play with us. You look like a child. It feels weird."

He was away in Belfast and Brunhild, but my kids and future Ed, he said you played well.

Well, he's Su's brother, so he's my uncle for Su's kids, and he's my uncle for the other kids. No wonder you got to play.

The people of Belfast are starting to get in the pa.s.senger car. Is it time to leave?

We board the train in turn, too. Our bus is number one.

It's not an automatic door, so the station man locks it from the outside after the last time I get in. Now I can't open it from the inside. Of course, in an emergency, when the handle on the internal door is pulled, it opens.

"Wow, that's beautiful!

Else looks in the car and shouts a surprise. The first car was so relaxed that it seemed like a salon. Underfoot is lined with fuzzy carpets, luxurious sofas to the left and right, and ceilings lined with skylights and demonic stone lights. There were even drinks available in the corners of the car, such as wine and fruit water.

This first car is so to speak a VIP car for the royal n.o.bility to use primarily. It has many features for a comfortable journey. It has heating and cooling.

Watch the outside home over the windowsill as the kids kneel on the fuzzy sofa.

Pirilli, a whistle sounds on the platform, and the magic guide train vibrates small. The magic battery set off the demonic motive and the wheels of the locomotive began to spin.

"It moved!

With the remnants of the ether glittering, the 'Rhinebell' slowly ran out for the leaflet.

The view of the windows flows. Less vibration, less noise. It's a different ride from the train I know.

The tracks to the leaf lease are made like viaducts set up a few meters high from the ground. Earth would take months to build, but earthly magic would do it quickly, so it would be convenient. I helped in part, too. The part of the bridge on the river, the enhanced magic of the finish.

So the view is great. Some time after leaving Alefis, the vast plains seemed to spread. It's got to be all the woods and plains up ahead.

Even though the same landscape would continue, the children were stuck snuggly at the window, wondering if the flowing scenery was interesting. I did it as a kid, too.

"Mr. Winter Night, do you want something to drink?

"Yeah, I'll have it then"

Yumina brought me a gla.s.s and a drink.

Well, let's just say we enjoy this short journey.

Chapter 317: The Elves

Translator: Forest Zou

Proofread by Ruriko

"If you could transfer yourself to the castle, you will get 100 points . It's a pity . But you have arrived in the right world, so I give you 70 points . "

She is so strict . I have a wry smile and ask her what I concern .

" . . . By the way, may I go back to my original world by Dimension Transfer?"

"The world where you were is too far away, so it may be difficult for you to go there now . But if you get used to the Dimension Transfer, it's not impossible . Though it's not recommended . . . "

Well, I see . It will be a problem when a dead people appears there . I may make myself invisible and just see how things are going . I want to go there someday, but not now .

Besides, this world is my home now .

"Can I use the Dimension Transfer to move anyone else?" "

"Yes, you can . However, because the destination maybe a world full of poisoned atmosphere, you'd better not take anyone to a world unknown . "

Indeed . If someone is not able to use the spiritual energy like us, he may die quickly in such a world . . . . I wonder how Ende deals with it .

In that case, I guess he will first confirm the situation from outside of the world barrier before starting transfer . I haven't seen him recently . Is he alright? I don't think he is easy to die .

"When I fought with a subordinate G.o.d before, I jumped into the so-called Elves' World . Is that also a different world?"

"It is a small world attached to each world, to be precise . Like a satellite in your original world . If the main body of the world disappears, the related small worlds will disappear, too . "

I see . The elves will be implicated by destruction of the main body . Ah? Wait a minute .

"Is the elves' world of this world different from the one of the Reverse World? What will happen to the elves when the two worlds' main bodies merge together?" "

"If the two worlds are far away, there will be two different elves' worlds . There is only one elves' world, because the two worlds are next to each other . But I don't know how elves' world will change when the merging starts . Maybe various disasters will take place; e . g . , the sea level will rise, or the land will swell, or abnormal weather will come . "

" . . . No, no, no . Though you say it lightly, sister, it's very important, right? You should tell me at the the first place! Why don't you tell me that early? "

Hearing this, Sister Hanakoi looks serious and stands still there . After two or three blinks, she puts out her small tongue and cast an amorous glance at me .

" . . . Yeah ♪"

"h.e.l.lo, is that Universe G.o.d? There is a G.o.d who binges on the sweets, averse to work . I'm hoping to change one . . . "

"Ah ah ah ah!! I did teach you Dimension Transfer! I didn't goof off! I just happened to forget to tell that!"

Sister Hanakoi begs me when I'm pretending to call the Universe G.o.d .

Ah . . . Did she forget really? It's too dangerous . If the new elves' world sinks to the bottom of the sea, how can I face the Universe G.o.d then?

"Well, what should I do?"

"Oh . . . Just to persuade the elves not to be shocked too much? Or rather, ask them to follow your instructions . You are also a subordinate of the Universe G.o.d . "

Right . The sand elf I met in Sandra also said so . G.o.d's power is supreme to the elves .

"Well, you are not a formal G.o.d, so it may not be easy to make them obey you . But they will . "

"To make the elves follow my instructions . . . How?" "

"There are many ways . "

① Persuade .

Persuade them to follow your orders, with a peaceful solution . This is love and peace .

② Defeat them .

Let them know who they are . Power is justice . This is search and destruction .

… That's all . "

"There are only two methods! Not many! The options are not enough!"

Talk or knock! They are not solutions!

"③ Find their weaknesses, and then threaten them . . . "

"Hmm . . . "

"Well, ③ will just make them obey you with reluctance . But I cannot a.s.sure that they will do whatever you want . So to speak, you are the new boss of a company . There must be some employees who support you, and some who are against you . If you have time, you'd better talk with them one by one . However, if you don't have enough time--"

"Then conduct the option ② . . . "

Search and Destruction?

No, no . In this way, a company will collapse . Thus it will become a b.l.o.o.d.y company, not just an unethical company . That's a terrible metaphor!

"There seems to be no other option now . You used a similar method to subdue Kohaku and other Divine Beasts, didn't you? "

Well . Hmm, are they the same creatures?

"We will leave alone the elves that are willing to obey you . Just show our power to the rebellious elves, and thus they will admit your leaders.h.i.+p . Because most of the elves are simple and honest . "

Is that true? Will I be treated as a villain? Maybe I will be called "Elf Hunter" . Or we will be able to understand each other after a fight, just like the adolescent dramas played in the past? This sounds like fantasy .

" . . . For now, should I go to the elves' world to have a talk? "

"Well, yes . You just need to say 'I'm appointed to manage this world . There are a lot of work to do, so please be my subordinates . ' They may be divided into two groups with different opinions: a group that supports you, and a group against you . Then destroy those rebellious elves . "

I really have no intention of killing them . Sister Hanakoi just likes to say that, right?

Well, I learn that the elves won't die . If you leave them alone, they'll revive soon . So is it unnecessary to go easy on them?

I just want to deal with it as peacefully as possible . . . In the way of love and peace…

However, in my experiences, things always develop in an unwanted direction .

. . . Search and Destruction?

Chapter 83: The Investigation, And The Nosebleed.

[Too suspicious]

Rin crossed her arms and made the conclusion. Nope, that’s what I thought as well.

After that we returned to the [Garden], I told everyone my conversation with End.

[Having 5000-year-old currency, defeating a monster in one hit that we couldn’t even put a dent. Furthermore, he also knows well about the monster, and wears a m.u.f.fler in this heat like an idiot. Even the huge explosion was suspicious, I think]

I don’t think the last one was irrelevant though, but well, it doesn’t change the fact that he’s suspicious. Who the heck is that guy……

[That crystal monster… the Fureizu. In the end, what are they?]

Elsie says the main problem. It surely is not a mere monster. After all, 5000 years ago, they are the fellows that started destroying the world. However, only s.h.i.+zuka and I know about this, and I’m still wondering whether I should tell everyone about it.

Even though I kept silent because I was thinking it will raise everyone’s anxiety, but it is hard to say now that it becomes the opposite way. I did not think it was a good idea to thoughtlessly worry everybody, and adversely it has become difficult to bring up.

Ji───────────i……

Ulp. It’s been a while since Yumina has started attacking me with her gaze. My eyes swim unintentionally. This is bad. I have a feeling it’ll be impossible to lie to Yumina after we get married.

[Touya-san, do you know something?]

[Ugh]

Yumina easily sees through my suspicious behavior, then I was made to confess the message from the professor to everyone.

[Why did you keep silent about such an important thing!?]

[Well, I thought about mentioning it sooner or later but…]

As Rin pressed me on, I utter lame excuses.

[An invasion of 10 thousand Fureizu…… It was the cause of the ancient civilization’s ruin. Well, 5,000 years ago there were so many, but now there is hardly any sighting information…… And now it has begun to appear. I wonder what on earth changed……]

[… Survivors, or, did the sealed ones start coming out?]

Lindsey expresses the thoughts Rin was distressing. Actually, the cricket type we first encountered was in a suspended state. That idea is certainly possible but…

[That kid End mentioned being obstructed by [Barrier] or something…… The Fureizu I encountered seemed to emerge from a tear in s.p.a.ce. It’s possible that the Fureizu are sealed somewhere in another dimension…]

[And maybe someone is trying to break that…… Or something like that -degozaru?]

[There is no conclusive evidence though]

Un-un, at Rin’s feet Paula crosses its arms and nods. Did this guy really understand?

Leaving that aside, what’s really bothering me, is that there’s no way to oppose the Fureizu. End called it [Middle Cla.s.s Kind]. Which means there is a [Lower Cla.s.s Kind] and an [Upper Cla.s.s Kind] as well.

Most likely the cricket type and the snake type Fureizu are [Lower Cla.s.s Kind]. We couldn’t even manage a [Middle Cla.s.s Kind]. If, an [Upper Cla.s.s Kind] appears……

It seems I seriously need to start searching for [Babylon].

[s.h.i.+zuka. Was there any fighting between the humans and the Fureizu 5000 years ago?]

s.h.i.+zuka who is standing in front of the monolith, turned to face me at my words.

[Well, there was fighting. The situation of the war was considerably bad though. The professor also developed weapons for the final battle, but when she completed it, the Fureizu was already gone and nothing remained]

[Final battle weapons?]

[The weapons the professor created were man-piloted weapons. She named them Framegear]

Man-piloted weapons!? Isn’t that a huge robot!? That professor, she even made something like that!

Certainly if she can build a robochild like s.h.i.+zuka, then it’s not strange that she can make a huge robot……

[And what happened to it afterwards?]

[If I am not mistaken it is stored in Babylon [Hangar]]

s.h.i.+zuka answers Elsie’s question. In other words, if the ruins we are headed to has the transfer point for the [Hangar], we can procure it.

d.a.m.n, I got excited for a bit. Because it’s a robot you know? It’s a robot a person can pilot you know? If you’re a boy you can understand this feeling right!? Although there are only girls here.

『Master, it seems we have arrived at our destination, however』

『It doesn’t look like there is anything here?』

『It doesn’t look like there’s anything buried under the sand』

Kohaku and the others report while looking at the monolith screen. The coordinates are good, but nothing could be seen but the desert reach alone.

[How about we get off for now?]

I leave Kuroyou and Sango in the [Garden] in case something happens, and go to the ground using [Gate]. It’s just the desert reach as far as I can see, nothing else. Just in case I take out my smartphone and try searching for [Ruins], then a pin fell into this place on the screen.

[It is here after all. Further down……]

Now, how to deal with this? Although I could say we should dig here. But I don’t know how long it would take if we started digging with a shovel.

[I will blow the sand off with wind magic. Move away a little bit]

Rin takes a step in front of me while I was thinking of a way to dig. No one objected, so we move away as we were told.

[Wind whirl, the whirlwind of storm, Cyclone Storm]

The raised tornado steadily sucks up the sand, and soars up into the sky. The sand is placed downwind from where we were, and instantly the part of the desert in front of us became a mortar.

Eventually, the hemispheric ruin begun to appear. [That] was a dome-shape about the size of a house, but I’m not sure whether the material was stone or concrete. There’s a door that looked like the entrance. It’s not a double-door, just a single-door.

We go down the mortar after the tornado stopped. There’s nothing on the door that resembles a k.n.o.b. Is it an automatic door? I stand in front of the door. There’s no reaction. And there’s nothing that resembles a sensor either, so how can I open this?

When I casually touched the door there was no response, so I went through it.

[Ugh!?]

[Touya-san!?]

I just almost fell down, when I stepped in, and entered inside into the ruin. There are six stone pillars and a transfer formation dimly lit.

I touched the door again, but this time I feel a solid and cold sensation. I tried to use [Gate] to go outside, but the magic doesn’t invoke. What? Was I trapped?

『Master!? Are you alright!?』

『Kohaku? Ah, I am alright. I am uninjured. There is a transfer formation inside. I will go and try it for a moment, tell everyone no need to worry』

『I understand. Take care』

The transfer formation is probably not destroyed, and perhaps there’s some trick related to the door. Like only someone with all attribute can pa.s.s, or something. I don’t know why I can’t go out though. I’m a little weary because the professor implicitly said she [Doesn’t miss] anything.

It can’t be helped. Either way if the transfer formation doesn’t work I can’t come out.

I pour the respective magic attribute in turns. After I finished pouring the six magic attributes, I stand in the s.h.i.+ning transfer formation in the middle. It’d be nice if if was the [Hangar], is what I was thinking when I was pouring the no-attribute magic, then I got transferred.

———————Scene Change——————

When the whirlpool of dazzling brilliance settled down, in front of me was a scene similar to the [Garden]. There’s only one difference, a large building can be seen in front of me. A pure white cube-like building was built.

As I was about to start walking on the road toward the building, a girl jumped out suddenly as if to block the way.

[Stop there ~dearimasu!]

She held her right arm up, to stop me from leaving. There was a girl with orange hair and a dumpling on both sides, held together in a chignon cover with a ribbon. She had white skin and golden eyes which shows she is the same as s.h.i.+zuka. She’s probably the manager here. She looks younger than s.h.i.+zuka. Maybe because she is shorter.

Welcome, to the Babylon [Workshop]. I am the management terminal here, High Rosetta ~dearimasu. I would be grateful if you give me the favor of calling me Rosetta ~arimasu.

As I thought? However, I have a feeling she refers to herself as a boy. Isn’t she a girl? She is wearing a skirt …… Isn’t she!? I mustn’t, it is that professor! I mustn’t trust her! She is not [A girl boy], right!?

[Etto, Rosetta? You, are girl… right?]

[? I don’t understand the intention behind the question, but I am as it appears ~dearimasu?]

I know, right! I am relieved. That reminds me, s.h.i.+zuka said that [No male type was made].

However, a [Workshop]? It isn’t the [Library] that Rin desires, and not the [Hangar] that I want either.

[Here is the [Workshop] centre ~dearimasu. Entry is currently prohibited except for the [Compatible person] ~arimasu!]

[Pretty much, I am the [Compatible person] according to s.h.i.+zuka though……]

I bring up the name of our Robokid-san since they are probably sisters.

[s.h.i.+zuka…… You mean Francesca ~dearimasu? I see, you have already obtained the [Sky Garden]. In that case this talk will be quick. Whether you have the qualification as the [Compatible person] or not, I will test it out right now ~dearimasu]

Test… What on earth are you going to test me with?

[Without moving one step from there, try to guess the color of my pantsu ~arimusu!]

[Are you stupid────────!!]

No good after all, these guys! They are made by that professor, so of course she is like that! Definitely, she is laughing! That person!

Instead of thinking like a fool about the answer for the test. Isn’t it white even without lifting the skirt up?

[You can only answer once. The time limit is 5 minutes. So come on, what is the color ~dearimasu?]

Ku! This fellow is in such high spirits! The time is running out while I was worrying about what to do. Grr, it’s annoying but I should just do what she wants!

[The wind blow, the whirlwind soar, Whirlwind!]

The wind whirls at Rosetta’s feet, the breast ribbon and bangs dances in the air. However, the skirt doesn’t shake. What the heck!?

[This skirt can resist wind magic ~arimasu]

Rosetta grins and laughs. Mumu. It’s not going to be simple. Then I’ll erase the skirt itself.

[Flame burns, Breath of incineration, Fire Breath!]

I used fire magic to burn only the skirt, but the fire doesn’t spread to the skirt. What!?

[Similar to wind, it can withstand fire magic ~arimasu]

What is with this strongest skirt!? It is a waste of high technology!

Ku, don’t get carried away. If I got serious, I could peep at pantsu at anytime!…… Um, strange. I don’t understand why I’m getting so desperate.

Enough. I’ll just peep directly. I will transfer my sight inside the skirt and peek a little, that should be good. It can’t be helped. There’s no other way.

……I wonder why all the excuses, me……

[Long Sense]

I hurl only my vision inside the skirt, and open my eyes. It’s dim but I can clearly see it…… However……

………………………………… Butsu.

I crouch in place, then tremble while holding red liquid flowing from my nose that taste like iron in my hand. That thing!? Is it that!?

[So, what is the color ~dearimasu!?]

[………… Colorless………… transparent………]

[Correct answer ~dearimasu! You have been acknowledged as the compatible person, and right now number 27, with individual name [High Rosetta], will transfer the owners.h.i.+p rights to you ~dearimasu. Please take care of me forever ~dearimasu!]

After Rosetta said that, she strikes a pose by snapping a salute, but to be honest it didn’t matter. It wasn’t on the level of see-through, it was panties made from food wraps but…… in front of my eyes…… Doesn’t this fellow have any sense of shame!? Such transparency……

Botatatatatsu …… Are? But my nosebleed has not stopped.……
