Episode 82 - I told you about your daughter's footprint
I hear that Merkina left this great forest about thirty years ago.
Apparently, there wasn't a big reason in particular. He just said that he didn't have the kind of person who wanted to make a child out of this settlement or a nearby settlement, and that was why he was so fuzzy because his life here was boring or he wanted to try something delicious.
At that point, Merkina already had enough arms to act as a single hunter in the Great Forest, so she was optimistic that anything would happen if she just lived in the outside world. If you have to, you can run into the woods, or you can come back to the Great Forest.
"I'm just gonna take a look at the outside world."
They left just that many letters and disappeared like the wind. With his own bow and arrow, a little preserved food and a change of clothes, and the money outside that he would never spend in the Great Forest.
"Is that money Dad's artifact? That was the one, wasn't it? 'Cause my dad was a stray man from the outside.'
There are no gold, silver or copper coins in circulation in the Great Forest, such as those in circulation in the kingdoms of Calendyl and Geppelus. It's basically because we're exchanging things in barter.
Merkina's father was once lost in the Great Forest, wounded down, picked up by Mr. Ermina, and made his whole life without ever leaving the Great Forest. I didn't get a chance to use the money.
Travelling with a few gold and silver coins and a number of copper coins there, Merkina headed east first.
To the north of the Great Forest lies just the sea that you want from the cliffs and the colonies of the birds that inhabit their cliffsnow walls, and to the west stands the harsh mountains, and beyond that lies the mount bus, the kingdom of the Dwarves. The Dwarves, who are liquor lovers and hole-dwellers, don't need anything else. The subject of interest was the city of many humans and the food sold there.
Then the southern kingdom of Calendyl or the eastern kingdom of Geppelus, plus the Misscronian kingdom ahead, would be the choice, but the rumor was that in the southern kingdom of Calendyl no other subpeople would be treated very well, either, in addition to clearly discriminating against beasts.
Now in the Great Forest there were many colonies of beasts chased from the kingdom of Calendyl, and a short while ago the elves were ostracized (I presume you mean Mr. Delfida).
So no south either. Then the Kingdom of Geppelus, east by the method of erasure, becomes the current destination.
The Great Forest Demons have many dangerous things to do.
But the Great Forest tread itself was not particularly difficult for Merkina, who, as a hunter, had the power of one serving. The unwinnable opponent can shake it off and hide and do it if he runs away, or sleep on a tall tree at night.
Besides, there are several settlements of elves and beasts in the Great Forest. Regardless of who came to hunt slaves from outside, it was not difficult to rent overnight accommodation in such settlements if you were an elf, a compatriot of the Great Forest.
That is how Merkina, passing east through the Great Forest, reached the Kingdom of Geppelus.
The kingdom of Geppelus is vast, the vast majority of which is grasslands and unexplored wilderness. There are many animals and very few demons. Moreover, the few demons were only weak demons compared to those of the Great Forest. As an adventurer, Merkina earned his way through the kingdom of Geppelus for a while while while escorting the merchants and hunting demons.
No matter how much Merkina had a one-man arm as a hunter in the Great Forest, she still traveled alone. That's a beautiful elf too. I got into quite a bit of trouble.
It was to the extent of being spoken nasty at best in the merchant corps escort, but it wasn't uncommon to be attacked in the sleep if you worked with other adventurers to go hunting.
"I almost lost that kind of thing if I did it with a few people."
Melkina's eyes talking like that scared me. I was humbled.
Having crossed the Kingdom of Geppelus all the way, Merkina then headed to the Kingdom of Misscronia.
By then the kingdom of Misscronia was a little rough. Because an evil wizard named Demon King was turning the princesses and young daughters of the kingdom of Misscronia and manipulating demons and demons to raze the land.
Merkina also had such demons and demons to crusade as adventurers. They were troublesome guys because the demons are pretty shabby and they use magic.
But Merkina never stopped eating and walking. Already at this time, the purpose of Merkina seemed to be just a gourmet journey.
"That was a pretty bad meal in the Misscronian kingdom back then."
Because of the Demon King, the production of soy sauce and miso was not even smooth to harvest the crop in general, and they felt like demonic meat, meat and meat everywhere they went. Still, the local specialties may be finely crafted, so Merkina crossed the Misscronian kingdom while opening up to meat-centric meals.
In doing so, a magician named Demon King was crusaded by the brave men of the sword, and the princess, who had been kidnapped with the brave men after the tortuosity, married. The princess, who had been kidnapped, lost her life once, but said that the brave man in the matter had brought a direct complaint to God to regain that life.
Out of the question, The Story of the Sword Brave challenged God by the Brave to reclaim the life of his beloved princess is the number one story of popularity throughout this continent. They're still indispensable for new issues to be additionally modified or secondary created.
He asked me to give him a very pitiful look when I gave him the latest of these to a short-tempered old man who would immediately slash the whole set. They're embarrassed and dying when they read that everything is too beautified in their actions and words and deeds.
Incidentally, it seems that the three factions of the Realist, the Queen who pierces her pure love with her beloved princess, who later became queen, and the Countess who pushes her secret love with the brave lady who met her during her direct appeal to God and later climbed up to the Count, and the brave are being slashed by the princess and the Count.
Precisely two major forces, the Queens and the Counts, are heavily contending, and the Realists are secretly present, he said. I gave you the latest edition of the Queens. My life would be in danger if I gave you another faction's book.
gossip.
After spending some time in the Kingdom of Misscronia, Merkina decided to next stretch her legs to the Kingdom of Calendyl. He got to know the merchants who would come to commerce via the Kingdom of Geppelus to the Kingdom of Misscronia, and decided to stretch his legs to the Kingdom of Calendyl as their escort.
For a while he walked within the kingdom of Calendyl as an escort to the Chamber of Commerce running the merchant corps and ate a variety of things in various places. It seems that the dish in the Kingdom of Calendyl, which uses a lot of vegetables, suited my mouth best for my diet preference.
About one day I was spending like that.
On that day, Merkina was staying in Alfen, the king's capital of the kingdom of Karendyl.
He thought it was time to eat a lot of food from the kingdom of Calendyl, and go to Mount Bus, the kingdom of the Dwarves, as his next destination. He also had several opportunities to taste the Mount Bus Dwarf dish and was going to try it for real.
Such a fold, I met two Beastman girls in the back alley of Alphen.
He is a slave when it comes to beasts in the kingdom of Karendyl. Every time I saw that treatment, Merkina felt bad, but I meditated on that aspect that as Merkina, who had wandered through the kingdoms of Geppelus and Misclonia to see various cultures and customs, this was also the culture of the Kingdom of Calendir.
It's uncomfortable, and I know it's barbaric, but if that's the culture of that country, he was breaking up that it would be different for him to say something that is Gentile.
"Takeshi"
But when they asked me for help face to face, I got in trouble.
The two beastly girls were very beautiful for slavery. Her hair was fluffy and her clothes looked expensive that she didn't think was a slave. Merkina had also seen such beastly slaves several times. It is a playful beast slave held by the nobility of the kingdom of Karendyl.
Even with a sip with the Beast Man, his appearance varies.
Some have the characteristics of beasts only in a very small part of their ears and so on with a appearance almost identical to that of humans, while others have the appearance of bipedal beasts and so on. It is those with the appearance of the former who are rarely valued as loving slaves of the nobility.
These two were also girls with those looks.
Even if you help me, I'm in trouble.
Slavery is my husband's property, his property. If you take it away on your own, it's a fine burglary.
But the truth is, it's not that easy to steal slaves. Whatever you take away, it's easy to track it if you use slave magic, and you need the expertise and skill to unlock or rewrite slave magic. If you ask me to help, I can't help you.
But the history is unknown, but the girls had not yet been subjected to slave magic. They say they fled before slave magic was applied.
Is that possible? And, in doubt, Merkina took the girls back to her room for now to examine their bodies. Then there were certainly no traces of slave magic.
Merkina was troubled. I'm sorry for the inconvenience, but I was wondering if it would be okay to abandon the girls so young and enslave them.
It was difficult for Elf's Merkina to guess the age of humans and beasts, but I can only tell that the two are very young. Because we're both only as tall as our own hips.
After troubled and troubled and troubled, he had left Alphene the next morning. It is a summary judgment at a speed that makes me want to ask if it really bothered me.
I also considered going back to the Great Forest, but it's tough on boulders to tread through the Great Forest with two young children. So Merkina decided to lurk in a deep forest a little further from Alphen.
It is foolish to keep staying in the Wang capital Alfen. It is Othi who is caught early and late by the chasers and both Merkina. If only Merkina could get away with it.
In contrast, if it is a deep forest, it is easy to repel rather than escape the chaser. Because they are no better than the great forest hunters in the woods. I'm a little worried about the two young kids, but they're smart enough to get away with it. We'll be able to do enough to lurk in hiding while Merkina goes hunting.
Besides, there were rumors that there was a hideout for the Beast Man in the woods ahead. You must be able to help me as long as I can rendezvous. That's what I thought.
Instead of asking for help, I'm the wingman to help.
They did build settlements, but that was too awkward and dangerous from Merkina's point of view. It is rare for a child to grow up healthy, with little food and immature hunting skills. I was often surprised that this was something I had lived in the woods before.
Having decided that leaving two young children in a place like this would surely not survive, Merkina decided to stay in the settlement and teach the beasts her knowledge and skills as a hunter of the Great Forest she knew.
Thus, for more than a decade, there was a great flood when the settlement was finally settling down. The floods have also pushed against settlements in the deep woods. Warcraft, demons and even demonic tribes appeared, as they usually only saw deep in the woods.
It's not like the Beastman settlement didn't do anything about it. The flooding itself was heard by Merkina when she went to the city or village to buy it out, so the village was well guarded. An empty moat was dug around the village and backwoods were installed to prepare for the great flood.
However, after intense fighting, the floods managed to evacuate, but most of the battle power of the settlement fell out of combat and many people were seriously injured. We decided to go looting to a nearby village where there was not enough medicinal herbs or food and supplies ran out, where our bellies could not be replaced on our backs and we were deserted by alienation.
That's where you met me.
"Why in a place like that?
"By then I had just finished quelling the floods everywhere as a brave man in the kingdom of Calendyl. Before I was lifted up as a brave man, I was on edge with the village, and I went to see what had happened."
"Phew, well, fate is such a thing. So?"
Beyond that lies the story of me and Merkina. It's a story.
"No, you're not sure why Merkina fell in love with me."
Yeah, I've been talking since I prefaced.
To have saved it by seeing the tragedy of the village of the Beastman, to have the kingdoms of Calendyl and Misscronia recognize the possession of the Great Tree Sea, to have greatly cut and expanded the Great Tree Sea to give the Beastmen a new heaven and earth, to have negotiated with other species who lived in the Great Tree Sea.
"It's hard to believe."
"Well, you see me now, don't you? Before I lost my power, I really felt invincible."
Answer Mr Delfida, who sipped tea and whined, scratching his head.
"That's because my father hasn't seen Tysi-kun fight. I can believe it."
In contrast, Mr. Ermina smiled and leaned down, dropping her gaze into a cup with tea. Watch how that goes. Mr. Delfida raises a single eyebrow.
"You thought you could live in the same direction, that kid"
"In the same direction?
"What Tysi-kun did to the Beasts is pretty much the same thing that she did to the Beasts, right? At first, that kid bothered to help the two girls for the night. Tysi-kun was almost instant in carrying one settlement. Isn't it?
"Well, yeah"
I didn't make the decision without thinking about it at all, but, well, I think it was an immediate decision.
"Decide to be ready to carry all that life and do its duty properly. It's easy if you just say it with your mouth, but Tysi-kun made it happen, didn't he? She saw it and decided she could live with you."
Speaking of which, it wasn't until shortly after you secured a new heaven and earth in the Great Tree Sea that Merkina declared herself your daughter-in-law. Until then, when I didn't hide my vigilance and tuned in and didn't have such a bare gesture, I suddenly remember being very confused as to what happened when I proclaimed myself my daughter-in-law.
"I'm sure the sweets are hidden in the light. About half of it."
"Are you serious?"
"That kid, he's twice as good at eating."
Well, it's about as good as eating, walking, and hanging out, so I guess so.
"So why did you come to the Great Forest alone?
"Uh, that's why. I don't know if you can believe me, but honestly, I think they're going to doubt my sanity."
"Okay, talk to me and see."
Mr Delfida and Mr Ermina urge me to speak up depending on the matter. Um, all I see is a future to be donned.
"Where did I tell you from... is it better after I tell you where I stand when it comes to telling you everything? First of all, I'm not from this world. He's a brave man from the outside world of Erialdo."
"... go on"
"A certain asshole God brought me into this world. So, there was a big bend and the flood knocked down a ton of demons, and I got a lot of power. The divine grace I received was such that I would gain greater power depending on the number and quality of demons I defeated."
Mr. Ermina nodded at my explanation, and Mr. Delfida meditated with his arms together.
"So, I gained my territory, as I had earlier spoken, but for a different god than the one who invited me to this world, it seemed that I had too much power to be in the way. I mean, we got to have a bee fight with the gods."
Mr. Ermina also started meditating on his eyes and drinking tea.
"So, I hunted down a man named God who threw a spear of thunder, and that stupid god who brought me into this world brought me to a different place, to a different place, to a place where I was fighting, to a different place, to a god outside."
"I didn't take you! I stopped, but I just couldn't help it!
"Ah shut up. So, after the fierce battle, he was defeated and deprived of his power, and he fell into this great forest with that asshole god where he was stabbed with a todome. Thunder struck around here yesterday, didn't it? That's it. So, that asshole god assimilated to me and is making a scene in his head right now."
"... ermina"
"I'm just about to decide how to react, too, so wait a minute."
He turns his gaze to Mr. Ermina as if Mr. Delfida were asking for help, and Mr. Ermina does his hand between his brows as if to reduce the headache.
"It's not a believable story, is it! I knew it!
I push myself against the table, too. Even I have to doubt my sanity if I can believe a story like this in one shot. Believing a story like this is someone who is fooled by an absolute con man or something.
"In the meantime, in my current state, I can't go home to my daughters. I'm under surveillance, so when I get back, it's time for me to stab Todome. Now, asshole gods assimilated to me are deceiving the eyes of the gods, and that's what I can't seem to find unless I visit the temple."
"Apart from the authenticity of the story, I know what Tysi-kun is talking about. Do you have any prospects?
"Like I said now, the first thing you need to do is regain your strength. Ground water, fire, wind, light, space, purity, and junction. It's extremely magical around, but now I can only handle it to the elementary degree, and it looks like my sword and other arms are falling off, so I need to retrain them. And then we have to equip ourselves. After that... Well, it looks like we have a plan."
Creating collaborators and chopping them off to the gods that they are not a single rock is a measure for now, but regaining power is the top priority now.
The question is how to do it. Well, do we have to train to the tunnel? I'll have to ask God if there's any way later.
"I wish I was here for a while, unless I had to leave right away or something like that. I want to know more about Tae-shi, too."
"Right, we should understand each other better"
Mr Delfida also agreed with Mr Ermina's words. You're making money even if you just didn't get kicked out or something like that because you think you're the crazy one. No, really.
Drink cold tea and casually look out. We've been talking for quite some time, but the days are still high. Think about it from the way the sun shines. It would be around 3pm or so.
"The sun is still high, and I'm moving my body a little. I still don't know how much power I have left."
"Yes, there you go. I don't think you need to worry, but be careful."
"Yes, I'm coming"
The two of us will drop you off and leave Mr. Ermina and the others' house behind.
I have to practice wind magic first so I can freely come and go with Tree Uemura on the ground.
