Death March kara Hajimaru Isekai Kyusoukyoku

18-22. Dwarf Village (2)

* It's a little long.

This is Satou. It is said that a faction can be formed if there are three people, but fortunately there was no faction-like thing in my company. However, there may have been a muddy faction dispute behind the smile just because I wasn't aware of it.

◇

"How did it happen? Master. Did you find the cause?"

"No, no. I knew the cause was underground, but I couldn't follow it all the way."

Miasma vision skill is a space magic " Distance view Clairvoyance"And the magical" Clairvoyance Through eyeIt was unexpectedly difficult to put it on, and I couldn't follow it it to the end.

"Pull out?"

"I agree that it is reasonable."

"Do you want to pull it out? !! Is it the lotus of life? 』\

"Nara, Nara! It's contraindicated! 』\

The old men of "Lotus Tsukasa" who heard Mia and Nana's remarks jumped and got angry.

It looks comical, probably because of its fist-sized height and plump body.

"If so,we can dive into the pond--"

" Wu Kannagi It is contra intuitive to pollute the holy pond without the permission.

"If so, isn't it okay to drain the water?"

"It's outrageous, to do such thing as draining the water from the Holy Life Pond! 』\

Arisa's proposal was lightly rejected, and the old man was furious at Liza's confirmation.

"Did you grasp the cause? Big person."

It was the warrior Chipita Chopeta who guided us to the Hidden Village.

Behind him is a corpse of a mole tied up with a rope, which soldiers are pulling according to his command.

This mole seems to be an ordinary vermin, not a monster.

"Warrior Chipita Chopeta! 』\

"It's outrageous, such as bringing dirt to the shore of Holy Life Pond! 』\

"Get it away quickly! 』\

The old men leaned on Chipita Chopeta, but he kicked the troublesome old man and ignored it.

The lady who asked her son's whereabouts had a naive attitude, but he seems to be basically rough.

"Young organisms! Tell them that violence against old people is prohibited."

"Hmm, don't let the stranger pinch your mouth."

Chipita Chopeta says so and walks away.

He is a person who drew a picture of the irreverence of Ogishi.

The soldiers pulled the mole and headed for the village while issuing a command.

"Are you injured? 』\

"Injury? I have to get rid of the filth rather than such a thing! 』\

I was worried about the old man, but the dwarfs seemed to be stronger than I expected, so he jumped up and started giving instructions.

"I'm need a cleaner! Call the cleaning boss! 』\

"Go Call"

"hurry up"

The servant ordered by the old man runs.

It seems that there was a little pain as Mia cast a recovery spell just in case, and the old man said thank you.

Is it more important to manage the pond and lotus than your own injury?

"Many came."

"Young organism …"

A lot of women called cleaners came.

Nana keeps her hands raised, but she doesn't want to get in the way of their work, so was careful not to hold them in her hands and take impulsive actions.

"Wow, it's blood"

"It seems that it will take time for a broom. Let's use Loofah ? ? ?

"Mison, what happened to the cleaning boss? 』\

"I have been lying down since my son, Tapita Tokata, disappeared."

"Was it already a month? By the way, Lipotarepot is also missing. I wonder what happened to the next generation of warrior chief candidates … "

By the way, when I came to the village, Topto somehow said that you didn't know where you were.

I don't think it has anything to do with the lotus case this time, but I searched the map to find out where it was, but it didn't find it. At least not in this map.

Just in case, I searched for the body, but it didn't get a hit either.

It's possible that the body was eaten a month ago, but it's also possible that you've gone off the map-outside the vast basin that surrounds the Hidden Village. Let's not say anything unneeded.

First of all, it is time for a survey.

"Where are you going?"

"I'm going to take a look around the pond."

The old men seem to be busy, and head to the opposite bank where the lotus has just begun to darken.

"I will tell you that there is nothing in particular"

"Lulu, is there anything you notice about?"

"Nothing in particular. The flow of the wind is normal…Tama-chan?"

Tama, who pressed his body against the ground, heard the sound of something fluttering below.

Perhaps because she was curious about the situation, it was the same pose up for Pochi.

"I hear screaming!"

"Sound disappeared?"

"It's gone. Did you hear voice too Pochi?"

"Donmai"

Tama and Pochi stand up.

"What was the sound?"

"Sound of scratching the soil ~?"

--HM.

"Can you hear the sound again?"

"Ai"

"Pochi will not fail this time either."

Tama and Pochi listened to the ground and sent a signal that they were ready.

In line with that, I fully open the spirit light and exorcise the miasma that the lotus wears.

At the same time, Tama's ears stand out and Pochi's tail shakes violently from side to side.

It seems that they picked up some sound.

"here"

"It is."

After a few steps, they repeatedly listened to the ground and stopped at a distance from the lotus pond.

Is it okay here?

I dig a hole deep underground with the earth magic "pit".

At the bottom, there was something earth-colored that fluttered, leaving the lower body on the wall of the hole.

"I'll got it out"

"Well, nanodesu!"

Tama and Pochi jump into the hole.

"Tottodo ~"

"Wow, nanodesu."

Pochi was so overwhelmed that she was about to slip on her hand while leaning and fall to the bottom of the hole, so I supported her with my "Magic Hand".

The earth-colored being that come out with Tama is like the moles carried by the warriors Chipita Chopeta.

Hey-No, it looks pretty big.

Pull up two people and one other in the hole with "Magic Hand".

"Fuonfuon ~"

"It's a captcha, nanodesu."

Tama and Pochi lifted with moles seem to be having fun.

I think it's a situation that like being caught by a UFO.

After I smiled at them, the mole monster-- Red claw clay dragon Rouge Nail Mall was indentified.

It's rampaging, but it's a small fry of about level 6, so it can't escape from my "Magic Hand". There is no race-specific ability that could be a range attack, so lets observe it as it is.

"It's not the mole you just saw, right?"

"I wonder if it's a master ball, I think it turned into a monster with miasma."

"Then, isn't this the cause of the lotus darkening?"

"what about?"

I search the map for "Red Claw Earth Dragon".

There are many under the lotus pond, but I don't think the lotus is miasmatic at this concentration.

I searched for monsters, but the results are the same. There are no monsters other than "Red Claw Earth Dragon" around this lotus pond.

"I'm not sure if it's the cause, but I don't think it's irrelevant, so let's show it to someone who seems to know about it."

We use Thorn ivy foot to tie up a monster with the ivy and Self-propelled Floating board to carry it.

It would be a problem if you were rampaged near the dwarfs, so let's hold it down with the "Magic Hand".

The old men are--.

"Well, that's a monster."

"Run away, oh oh"

――They screamed and disappeared in an instant.

Such healthy legs that I can't think of as belonging to old men.

"trouble, huh"

Okina Wu Kannagi who I was thinking of asking if she didn't recognize it, but if I took it over the town, they would panic.

"Is the mole here-Giya ah ah ah ah ah ah"

"Run away, oh oh! 』\

The warriors Chipita Chopeta and the soldiers appeared dashingly, but as soon as they saw the monster, they threw their spears and ran away.

Compared to ordinary moles it is as a raft compared to a battleship.

"Everyone waits here and I will come to the company for a while."

"Okay. Take me alone to prevent cheating."

"Hmm, leave it to me"

I don't think it's physically possible to flirt with a dwarf.

I give Mia a light head chop.

◇

"--Is it a monster? !! 』\

If you report, Wu KannagiMr. Turilfururi shouted with a deep blue face.

She sank into the floor as it was, but it can be said that it is better as it is not as faint as the side servants.

"Huh, is that true? 』\

"Yes, it's true. Are monsters rare around here? 』\

"… Oranu"

"Okay? 』\

"There are no monsters here. Only a few are mentioned in the traditions left by our ancestors. No one has actually seen it. "

Indeed, if it was so rare, the reaction of the warrior Chipita Chopeta might be unavoidable.

"Well, I want to see that monster. Bring it here-No, I'm going "

"Let's form an escort"

It's usually carried by a litter or something, but it's dangerous if it's thrown out by a monster, so I carry her on my palm.

"U, Uoooooo"

I'm moving as slowly as possible, but it seems to be a horrifying experience for Mrs. Turilfururi, clinging to my fingers and closing her eyes tightly.

There was no Mia's "Guilty" judgment, so I just returned to where everyone was.

"Is this a monster?"

After screaming for a while, Mrs. Turilfururi looks down at the mole monster from above my palm with a tired and weak face.

"Similar to moles"

"Probably a monster mole"

We then told her that the "lotus of life" had turned black because of its miasma, and reported that simply purifying its miasma would quickly restore it.

"In other words? What do you mean? 』\

"I think there is another source of miasma that is desecrating the" lotus of life. ""

I tell Mrs. Turilfururi, who doesn't understand well.

For the time being, I checked the bottom of the lotus pond on the 3D display of the map, but there were no particularly suspicious objects.

I thought of a pattern that would be solved by defeating all the monsters that are common in the game, but looking at this mole, it wasn't that miasma, and I couldn't find any prominent monsters wandering underground.

"Moshiya--"

"Do you have any idea? 』\

"--There is no confirmation. No, but I have something to worry about. "

The shrine maiden, who muttered a meaningful word and shut up, ordered me to return her to the company, so I took her back.

She will be in panic if I keep carrying the monsters, so I put them in a "magic bag".

"Otome," The same maiden. " Please answer my wishes "

After returning to the company, Mr. Turilfururi began to pray in front of an altar like the Gomadan.

"Nothing happens, right?"

"Arisa, let's wait a little longer"

It seems that Arisa is getting tired of it because there is no change even after waiting for about 30 minutes.

By the way, Pochi and Tama curled up and fell asleep in less than 10 minutes. Liza continues to be vigilant about her surroundings, and Nana is delighted to have a little surprised child on her lap.

"A monster has appeared"

"After all, the pollution is …"

I heard the conversation of the dwarfs from behind the mushroom house.

Perhaps because they are small, their voices are so quiet that they cannot be completely heard even with my listening skills, even though they are not so far apart.

"The next warrior chief is not decided …"

"If it's right, Topto Tapeta …"

"……Coward……"

"That's why Chipita Chopeta …"

"Maybe there are no other candidates? 』\

"Don't say such things! If someone … ”

Somehow the conversation began to flow in a disturbing direction.

I don't feel like being involved in the power struggle of the dwarf village, so I stop turning my listening skills.

"I'm getting tired"

Arisa grows greatly.

"Hey, Mia. Can you do something?"

"Muu"

Mia, who was fooled by Arisa, looked up at Taiki with an embarrassed face.

"Dryad"

Mia calls for dryad.

Arisa stares at the tree with a promising face.

…… Nothing happens.

"Impossible"

Mia gave up.

Speaking of which, elf was quick to give up for a long life.

"My husband!"

Arisa is clinging to me.

Rarely, there is no sexual harassment.

"Arisa can't help it ~"

Looking up at the tree in the mood of a cat-shaped robot, I tried using Transfer of magical power.

Basically, it is inefficient if you do not touch it, but there should be no problem at this distance.

"… Huh"

Overlapping the pattern, a yawning green kid emerged.

"Dryad"

"Oh? Baby chan, right?"

When Mia called, Dryad, who was speaking in the local language, answered in Elvish.

"so"

"Why are you here--wait a minute, it seems like something is being called out."

"She responded! The "Unchanged Maiden" responded to the call! 』\

From the back of, I heard the delighted voice of Mrs. Turilfururi.

After all, it seems that she didn't understand because she didn't have enough magical power to act.

"It's over. Somehow, it seems that the place where the elves made a barrier before was broken. I think that magical power and miasma flowed through the ground vein that should have been drowned. Thank you for the rest."

The dryad said so and disappeared in the trunk.

"Big person! The "Unchanged Maiden" has bestowed wisdom! 』\

With a big smile, Mrs. Turilfururi jumped out.

I reach out and help her when she is about to fall down the stairs.

"Sorry, I was saved"

"So what about the maiden? 』\

"It seems that the old barrier has broken. Perhaps one of the 64 ruins on the surrounding Sotowayama was in trouble. "

It's the same as the information from Dryad, but I've never heard that there are 64 archaeological sites to investigate.

"I understand. Let's investigate immediately. "

"Um, I'll leave it to you, as a big person"

Leave the company and return to Hasuike with friends.

"Do you look around in order?"

"I won't do that kind of trouble."

Put your hand on the shore of the lotus pond and be aware of the flow of the ground vein.

This is the place that was most affected, and if you follow the ground from here, you should find the place in question.

Follow the ground vein like a thin thin spider's thread.

Although it is thin, it does not have the cleanliness of a mountain stream, and it feels like going through sludge at the bottom of the Dob River.

Dryad said that "magical power and miasma flowed in", but the proportion of miasma is quite high.

--I got you.

A part of it is torn like a tear in the wallpaper, and a small amount of magical power is flowing from there.

Apparently, the stagnation of miasma is clogged up and it looks like a pseudo bank.

I disconnect from the ground vein.

"How? Did you understand something?"

"Oh, it's perfect."

Answer Arisa asking, imitating her tone.

"Mia, can you summon Garuda?"

"Hmm. ■■■■ ……"

Mia begins chanting without asking why.

We ride on the Garuda that Mia has summoned, and move toward the ruins that we found earlier through the ground connection.

◇

"Mikke ~"

"I found a human in the ruins."

"Is that a ruin? It looks like a monument just piled up with stones."

I found the ruins on a cliff in the distance.

"Huh? Master, there is someone behind the ruins."

I saw the place Lulu pointed out, but I couldn't tell at all with my bare eyesight, so I tried to concentrate again with the help of my telephoto skill.

"You're there. It's like a young dwarf."

It seems to be quite weak.

You may be frightened by Garuda, so land a little further away and walk from there towards the youth.

"My husband, that child, isn't he the dwarf who was said to be missing?"

--Toptotapeta.

It is a dwarf who was said to be a coward.

I couldn't find it when I searched the map before, but it seems that the outside of this ruin is a different map, so I think he was going to the other side of the boundary at that time.

I don't know the dose of magic medicine, so we treated the young person with Mia's healing magic.

The young man remained fainted after the injury was healed, but when Lulu warmed the soup nearby, he woke up with a belly rumble.

"……Where? 』\

"It's near the ruins"

When we showed up, he were surprised and seemed to lose his conspicuousness again, so we projected the figure of us who became dwarfs with illusions, and supported the soup plate and his body with "Magic Hand" soup to drink. Voice was handled by ventriloquism skills.

Perhaps he was hungry, the young man drank the soup in no time. Until now, it seems that he used to whisper moss to avoid hunger.

After drinking about three glasses and taking a break, he start talking.

"Why are you in such a place? 』\

"I wanted to escape from the village. I'm not suitable for warrior, but everyone says to aim for the legacy of my father who was a warrior chief. Mother, ladies and servants … ”

"So, in order to escape, you destroyed the ruins and make a hole in the barrier? 』\

"Wrong! 』\

When we made a deduction that the point was breached, he was denied with a strong tone.

After all, reasoning is difficult.

"It was Lipotarepot that broke it."

A familiar name-it must have been the name of a dwarf who disappeared at the same time as him.

"Does he also run away from the village? 』\

"Wrong. He and Tapita Tokata have been chasing me. "

"To bring you back? 』\

Then why did you destroy the ruins?

"Wrong. To make me look like an accident and kill me. "

"To kill? For what?"

Arisa caught her mouth, and the young man was restlessly looking around and looking for the source of her voice.

We will also make a image of dwarf-sized Arisa and show her appear from the back of the ruins.

"We are friends"

"Well … did my mother ask you to bring me back?" 』\

"No, it's not. I came to investigate the ruins at the request of Mr. Turilfururi. "

"Really……"

The young man went down and shut up.

"please tell me. Why did you think that Lipotarepot and Tapitatokata came to kill you? 』\

"My bloodline was in the way. The lineage of the warrior chief ”

I see, it's a common story.

"Why did they destroy the ruins? 』\

"It's an accident. The spear that tried to kill me broke the keystone of the ruins. "

With that said, the young man showed me a broken keystone.

It looks like a magic circuit based on a large magic core.

"I slid down to the other side of the mountain with the collapsed ruins. I saw them chased by monsters overflowing from the torn barrier and went to the other side of the barrier while running away. "

When I was told to go beyond the barrier and search the map, I found the remains of the two bodies.

It wasn't too far away, so I went with a flash and collected it.

It would have been better if he was alive, but it would be better than unknown.

The rest is the restoration of the barrier.

In a distant place, I contacted the leader in the forest of Borenan, with "The space magic" World telephone, and learn how to repair keystones.

It was quite easy with the material I had, so I repaired it quickly and re-established the barrier.

"Check completed with space magic. No problem."

"Hmm, spirits too"

Arisa and Mia endorsed my work.

"Emono ~?"

"I'm eating!"

"My husband, the mole hunting has been completed."

The beast girls are back with the corpse of the Red Claw Earth Dragon.

"Master, the incense of the demons has run out, so I report."

"That's the last time, so it's okay."

This completes the extermination of monsters in the barrier.

If left unattended, the dwarfs would be wiped out, so I got rid of it.

On the way back, I walked to clean the miasma along the ground and returned to the village.

◇

"Big person! "Lotus of life" has regained its original freshness! 』\

When I returned to the company, Mrs. Turilfururi reported with a smile.

"The barrier has been restored. I've also purified the ground veins, so it's okay. "

"Really! Thank you! Give thanks. Please receive it! 』\

A large amount of ornaments, cloth, and nuts are piled up.

Can the cloth be used as a ribbon?

It's a great feeling, and I'm grateful.

"This is a sign of friendship"

We provide the dwarfs with the groceries obtained in the Kingdom of Shiga.

"Food stock, full"

"This will allow us to go through winter"

"No danger of us starving to dead"

The lower-level dwarfs, who speak DeChapta, jumped and were delighted.

"It's a feast! A thank-you party for the big ones! 』\

Perhaps he had begun preparations when the lotus returned, and as soon as the sun went down, the banquet began in the square in front of the company.

Bring the food in a small cup to your mouth as recommended.

It has a light taste but is quite delicious. The amount is small, but it feels like they were put out in barrels at their size.

"Having enough, big people?"

"Yes, I am entertaining. Let's show our cooking too. "

With that said, they served dishes that could be eaten at their size, such as pancakes and fruit punches, from the storage via the storage bag.

The dwarfs climb a mountain of pancakes and swim in a bowl of fruit punches.

"I will rescue the young organisms, so I declare."

"I'm not delicious!"

It seems that Nana was causing a little misunderstanding, probably because she used chopsticks to help the dwarf was about to drown in the bowl.

"Do you guys eat too?"

Meat dishes are taken out and served to the beast girls with unfufilled faces.

"It's amazing meat, nanodesu"

"It's like eating together."

"Sheer!"

Pochi cuts the hamburger steak and provides it to the dwarfs, and Tama cuts the shrimp into pieces and invites the dwarfs into the hollow of the shell.

Since the scales are different from each other, it will be interesting no matter what you offer.

"Thank you on behalf of my son"

"Well, he delivered my son's bones. I can make a grave with this. "

Two relatives who broke the barrier came to thank me.

Another surviving father of Toptotapeta is …

"My son's Take care of death ? ? ? ? ? ?Thank you for bringing thH lost. "

Saying that, he bowed my head.

He beckoned me, so I put it on my palm and carry him to my ear.

"I read the letter of folly. I deceived my wife and others died as my son wanted. …… Ask for my son "

The bearded dwarf said so and bowed.

Toptotapeta didn't want to go back to the village, so he decided to die on the condition that he wrote to his father.

Toptopetapeta is hiding in Nana's pocket.

After leaving the village, he plans to stay in the royal capital of the Kingdom of Shiga for a while and then move to the Boluenan Forest at the right time.

The fun party with the dwarfs will soon end.

"Is it over?"

"The maiden! The maiden has moved! 』\

"Has the same maiden changed? 』\

"See! It was true! The maiden has moved before! 』\

"It's a feast! How about a maiden too! 』\

The dryads in Taiki suddenly moved, and the dwarfs were surprised to sit down.

The one who insists happily is probably the one who witnessed the forward rotation. Drunk people are moving normally.

"It's over, dryad"

"Then, I'll send you."

I haven't finished the farewell greeting yet, but the impatient dryad said, " Fairy way Alf Road I have opened it, so I will return to the Kingdom of Shiga as it is.

When the transition light went out, we were in the park at the starting point.

"Thank you, Ningen!"

This dryad thank you and disappears into the cherry tree.

It was dusk, so the park was crowded with people withdrawing and people watching cherry blossoms at night.

I want to see cherry blossoms at night, but the park at night is full of drunks, so it's bad for education.

"Then, let's go home."

"Ai Aisa ~"

"Yes!"

We left the park in response to the voices of our energetic friends.

"This is the city of big people! 』\

Topto Tapeta, who came out of Nana's pocket, was impressed by the night view of the royal capital.

After inviting him to the royal capital, he became friends with the wise men, but he could not overcome the fear of the crows on which the Raven Riders were riding, and decided to move to the Boluenan Forest. …

It seems that owls were the biggest threat in their village, and there was an irresistible fear.

Later, when I went to see the situation in the forest of Borenan, I was sure that he was having a happy life because he was on good terms with another girl of the dwarf tribe who lived in the forest.

The letter to my hometown is supposed to be delivered by Dryad, and I hope you enjoy your second life.

If possible, it's okay even after the child is born, so I'd like to reassure the mother who was worried when she came to her hometown.
