75 Episode 75 of Gaiden

It may be important for them to reflect and learn lessons, but it's a good thing.

What Befindil cares about is the safety of his people and the mountain range.

The problem is, after all, what kind of monster it is.

“The first thing to do is to check.”

He left first, saying that he would tell the details as soon as the truth was confirmed.

“Please, I hope this is not a nuisance… …

I'd rather have those idiots tell lies.

But it won't be that simple.

I was already half aware of it.

Befindil immediately ordered his subordinates to confirm the authenticity.

And unfortunately... … .

“Was it true… …

“Is it true?”

When Hetia, who came to hear the information came in, asked, he silently affirmed.

“I heard that strange phenomena are being observed in that forest.”

In fact, the two races of Centaur and Minotaur were driven away, and after a quick glance at the forest, it was confirmed that there was something strange.

“Any more details?”

“Anyway, it is more difficult than that.”

Making them check more than that would be worth wasting their lives for nothing.

In any case, it was well-founded.

And though it became his anguish.

“It’s the worst.”

It's usually not a problem. If you get out of that forest right away, depending on the direction, you will be right here in the Dwarven Mountains.

No, no matter where you go.

If the next place is devastated, it will become their problem someday.

“It is difficult.”

But the first thing that came out of his mouth was a sigh.

“difficult? Can't you defeat the dwarves alone?”

I ask casually, but it hurts my stomach when I hear it.

“It will be difficult with only our power.”

In the first place, Dwarves were not particularly skilled in combat. I don't know what to do with a sit-in or depending on the performance of the equipment, but it would be ridiculous to expect that.

“Then can’t it be like a horse and a cow?”

“… … Do you mean to unite with the tribes?”

Hetia probably didn't mean much, but he listened quite seriously.

it's union

If you can't handle it alone, join forces. That's why the horse and the cow must have joined hands in the first place.

They say they can't afford it, but then you can increase the number.

three rather than two.

no more than that.

“Is that too difficult?”

“hmm. I can't be certain.”

Depending on the negotiations, it might work somehow.

First of all, the head of the Dwarves chose the races they could attract.

“The mermaids can't get out of the water, so even if they unite at this stage, it will be difficult. … … If possible, it would be better to attract harpies.”

There are a lot of guys running around on the ground anyway. It would be good to gather people with as many abilities as possible.

“Other than that… … hmm. It's like an elf in terms of distance, but... …

Is the forest of the elves closer in terms of distance... … . Befindil muttered reluctantly and licked his lips.

After all, there are no guys who are easy to negotiate.

“You mean there? Shall I go then?”

“You mean?”

“I can help you a little.”

Hetia recommended that she go out.

Of course, she is not without purpose. If you work, you have to pay for it.

“What do you want?”

“Let me stay here. That's all you need.”

“indeed… … Citizenship or do you want that?”

In short, what Hetia, a wanderer, wants is to first find a place to stay.

Befindil was already aware of Hetia's smuggling. I didn't point it out because it was better to keep my mouth shut.

As for the problem, Cressel originally tried to think of another method, but since this incident happened, he decided to jump on the bandwagon.

“And with the guarantee of the dwarves, I can easily meet other races.”

There is also a curiosity to meet other races and check them out.

Hetia and Cressel thought so and volunteered for active cooperation.

So there is something to be gained.

Befindil also agreed, as if he understood that.

“Okay. But if we send you alone, we can buy a guard, so this time we'll attach one of our men.”

“doesn't care.”

As it was, Hetia set off for her destination.

The head of the Dwarves, Befindil, decided to send messengers to each race to understand the situation and propose a willingness to cooperate.

And the request to Hetia is to draw cooperation with the harpies.

“But what is a harpy?”

[You accepted without knowing.]

Cressel smiled bitterly and explained to Hetia, who climbed the mountain range.

[A species capable of flight, with wings like a bird and a light body.]

“Ah, that's a bird... …

[Well, don't talk openly in front of them. Don't even drool, you'll hate that. … … And.]

Cressel gave a second piece of advice in a slightly unavoidable voice.

[Help the child that is lagging behind over there.]

“Huh? oh!”

It was only then that Hetia looked down the cliff as if she had noticed. There, a dwarf girl was panting and swaying as if she were about to roll down at any moment.

It is a pitiful sight.

“Wait for me… … Huh!”

I desperately try to follow him, but it won't be easy.

Even if Dwarves have developed stamina, they might not be suitable for climbing such a rough mountain path.

“sorry.”

Apologizing for forgetting, Hetia lightly jumped right next to the dwarf girl and grabbed her by the back of the neck.

“hot'?!”

As it is, without a gap to scream, it immediately jumps up and jumps up the mountain range.

[What you're doing is completely goat, but this... … 』

“Master. what?”

[No, go up quickly.]

After climbing lightly to the mid-slope, Hetia chose an appropriately wide corner and landed there.

“Would you like to rest if you are tired?”

“… … yes yes!”

A dwarf girl asking for some rest. I was almost carried away by Hetia, but that's not normal.

not very caring It hurts so much and hurts so much because it feels like I am carrying a burden on me.

“ah. Would you like some water?”

“huh. … … therefore.”

Hetia fidgeting while accepting the water bottle. Maybe I can't remember the name.

“My name is Paldera.”

“… … I was remembering huh.

Paldera. It's easy to remember. How easy is it?

It will probably be easy.”

[What is that idiot doing with a useless bluff...]

Anyway, after taking a breath, Hetia looked down at the mountain range.

“and… … did it come up well? not there yet?”

“Now, if you go over this half and go down, you can reach the valley where the harpies are staying.”

Faldera pulled out a map and checked it, then looked around and said.

Hetia doesn't know how to read a map, so it's her responsibility to direct the way.

“By the way, that’s great… … . I didn't expect it to come up in less than half a day... … .

If it were us, it would take five days to come up here.”

“Is that great?”

“That must be great… …

Faldera hesitated and admired candidly.

At first, I wondered what he was talking about when I told him to follow this little boy to the harpies' territory, but now he seems to have realized the reason.

“Anyway, we'll be arriving soon.”

“yes. I will do my best.”

“… … No, it means you can go a little slower.”

However, Faldera's wish hadn't come true, and Hetia carried her back and ran.

After crossing the mountain range at once and going all the way down, I finally saw a valley occupied by harpies.

“Oh, there are many birds?”

[…] … So don't ever say that in front of yourself.]

I saw something vaguely flying in the valley.

Going further down, I saw that they were winged ones.

they are harpies

They use their wings to make their homes all over this valley.

For ordinary people, it would take a lot of courage to even step forward easily.

But even such a precarious terrain is nothing to winged harpies.

“By the way, are harpies and dwarves friendly?”

“well… … At least it's the first time I've seen a harpy.”

Paldera said frankly.

In fact, even among the Dwarves, few know Harpies well.

Because there isn't much interaction. Even coming here isn't easy with the dwarven legs.

Above all, there is no reason to take risks.

“But seeing as there were blueprints for accessories and armor for harpies, there may have been exchanges in the past.”

Well, it's a thing of the past.

“Then let’s go.”

As if Hetia didn't want to wait any longer, she took Faldera all the way down the valley.

If you stumble just a little bit, you'll fall down, but I don't care, and I don't make the slightest mistake.

And let's approach it until the appearance of the harpies can be identified with the naked eye.

Peeing!

Something lightly flew through the wind and hit the rock Hetia was about to land on.

“ah??????

Reflexively flinching, Hetia almost accidentally stumbled.

“Wow! Be careful! If you fall, you'll be second and I'll die!”

“… … no i die maybe.”

Well, I managed to hold on to another nearby rock before I fell, but there was no time to relax.

[Be careful, it's coming again.]

The next arrow comes flying.

This time he was clearly careful, so she smashed it with her bare hands and broke it.

When I hit it, it flew quite accurately, but I thought that there would be no problem even if I couldn't respond.

“I have a problem?”

Faldera screamed as if she had noticed Hetia's thoughts.

I think I came to the conclusion that I should shout hard because I think I will go through a big trouble if I make him forget his existence.

“anyway??… As Faldera points out, the one who shot the arrow now is the only one who can shoot it.

When Hetia raised her head, several harpies hovered above her head in the sky.

Some of them have strange things wrapped around their ankles. A long arrow shaft was tied to a string, wrapped around the ankle, and the arrow was carried with the other arrow and shot.

Is it a weapon considering the physical characteristics of harpies? It may be called crude modification, but it is not a bad idea.

“Warning. This place. It is our nest.”

And the man with the largest body and wings warned as if threatening as a representative.

“If you go further than that. pierce with an arrow Snatch it with our claws. Drop it down this valley.”

In a sense, it is a natural fortress and trap. These guys would have used this environment to repulse the enemy.

Faldera hurriedly approached them as they solemnly warned and aimed their arrowheads.

“for a moment! wait for me! Harpies!”

“… … Dwarf?”

Fortunately, he seems to have recognized Paldera.

“My name is Faldera from the mountains of the dwarves. I have come to convey the message and request of our chief.”

When Faldera instead of Hetia said that they were the Dwarven messengers, the harpies were silent for a moment as if hesitating.

It's been a while to face the messengers sent by other tribes. You must be confused about how to deal with it.

“… … follow me If you can come.”

In the end, their captain, the harpy, said so as if he had made a decision, and then slightly lowered his altitude so that Hetia could follow, and began to fly ahead.

Harpies built huge nests in several places along this long valley.

In terms of humans or other races, the residential area of a village unit.

They lacked the technology to build something huge like a city, and it would be a big deal if they fell in case of emergency, so they must have been deliberately divided into several places.

And the leader, Harpy, guided Hetia to the largest of the nests.

“Tell me, but don’t do anything nonsense. Our people are watching.”

“huh. I will not.”

The harpy glared at Hetia, who answered calmly, then turned her head away.

Then, with Hetia on her back, Faldera looked around and muttered in concern.

“… … But how can they let us in so easily?”

Actually, I thought it would be difficult.

Unexpectedly, the harpy responded to such self-talk.

“A visitor. It's not just you guys.

There is another.”

” yes?”

But it doesn't tell me more than that.

I followed it all the way and entered a cave that was presumably the residence of the harpies.

There, the two witnessed an unexpected sight.

Naturally, he thought it was a harpy.

In the first place, the purpose is to meet the head of the harpies and ask for their cooperation.

There is a harpy with slightly reddish feathers. He is probably the chief.

and next to him.

“Aren’t you a harpy?”

“.. Elf y”

For some reason, there were a few elves there.

Faldera was not the only one surprised.

The elves, too, widened their eyes at the sight of the unexpected guests.

“Why are you a dwarf?”

“No, before that, who was next to the dwarves?”

“I feel a strange presence from the author.”

Hetia, who was treated strangely, slightly frowned as if she noticed the nuance.
