Tacket amazing at the power of the Spirit Gun. In contrast, Chante clapped her hands with joy.

"Good at it. I've heard that it's hard to fly straight without getting used to it, but you're good at tacks.

"Eh, but I don't think this kind of high thermal power should be used against humans..."

In a flash, the target is charcoal. You can't just kill a poacher if you see him, right? I was a little anxious about the tacket.

"Really. There's a letter written on that magic stone, right? So, you're ordering the Spirit to do something about it. If it's a magic stone for spiritual guns, it probably says you can fly straight and fast. But every time a user adds an order like how wide to fly, that kind of fine order."

"People who use it... I mean, what do you do when I shoot them now?

"Yes, there's a magic stone stuck on the finger, so I think that's probably the medium."

Indeed, I was told that something like magic stones was fitted in the trigger. I thought it was just a decoration.

"You can add orders by touching the magic stone and remembering in your head. How accurate and accurate it is depends on the technology of the person using it."

"Um... I mean... Is it up to me to make ballistics thinner or, on the contrary, wider?

Chante nods to the words of Taketo.

I see. Tacket weapon, that's good, right?

I have often received training in the use of live guns from the police academy and commissioned officers. So I know how to use it basically, but I've only shot a mat that doesn't move in training. I mean, I never shot a moving thing. Can it be used as a weapon? Though uneasy, it may still be better than any other weapon that has never been touched, such as a sword or bow. That's how Taketo nodded.

Well then, it's settled. Now, is it time for us to go out too?

And Chante smiled, and turned his silver hair, and walked toward the forest. That's where I'll call Ulu. When Taketo served the Spirit Gun as a holster, he hung it through his belt to his waist and chased after Chante.

Taketo and Chante, and the three of Brigitta, riding on Ulu's back, head for the Rittoria region.

On Ulu's back, a bridge sits next to the neck root, and Chante is right behind it. I got rid of it in the form of a tucket at the back. Somehow, I feel like this is going to be the home position in the future.

Ulu's run is stable enough to run in the plain, but it doesn't shake at all. To avoid being shaken off, I was quite tired even if I was just holding my body by Ulu's hair. But Chante and Brigitta seem to be used to it, and I'm a little jealous of riding with a cool face.

From King's Land to the Rittoria region, it takes about a week to get there by carriage, but the speed of Ulu's feet allowed him to spend the night in a post town along a highway along the way and enter the Rittoria region the next day.

On that day, Lord Rittoria came to greet me and exchange information, and I was stopped overnight. Then, the next morning, I went to Sheila Village.

We arrived at Sheila Village before the sun came directly above us.

Chante told me that the villagers were scared when I got into the village while riding in Ulu. I got off from Ulu a short distance from the village and walked into the village.

The village was at the foot of a series of mountains. This is a small settlement built by a rugged flat house made of stone, loosely clinging to Yuru and the slopes. Livestock like Alpaca is walking in swarms throughout the village. At the far end of the line, a boy with a thin stick was chasing away the livestock. I'm going to graze.

While walking along the village road with such a pastoral view, several men appeared to block the road in front of the tackets. Looks like the mayors of this village. Their expressions were evenly dark.

You will be guided to the village chief's house, where you will explain the situation first.

They said they found traces of another intruder on Sheila Spirit Peak yesterday. The tracks were still fresh, and there seemed to be a larger number of human intrusions than the previous one, with more footprints.

So they gathered the village's youths and went with the village vigilante to see how Phoenix was doing. But on the contrary, the intruder found him and attacked him with a bow or something, and he ran back for his life.

"Hurry... if you don't hurry, Hinotori-sama's egg!

Hinotori-sama seems to be referring to Phoenix. That's what they call it in this village. Speaking of which, Taketto recalls that the commander said that we serve as gods in this area.

"It's okay. Village chief, we will definitely catch the poacher."

Chante took the mayor's hand and looked him in the eye and smiled gently. The village chief grabbed Chante's hand back.

"Please. That Hinotori-sama is a spiritual bird who has been watching us for a long time. Once upon a time, when this mountain erupted, Hinotori-sama taught us that our ancestors could survive. However, when Hinotori-sama is in trouble, it's not worthwhile that we can't do anything....."

And suddenly I want to regret it.

"But the village chief told the lord to call us. It's okay, we'll figure it out."

While the village chief and Chante were repeating such interactions, a child broke into the house because he couldn't wait. If you look closely, it's Brigitta, not the kid. When she entered between the two, she put her hand on her hips and stretched out her little breast, and looked up at them with a mighty look.

"In the meantime, the poachers are approaching the Phoenix nest, aren't they? It's not like you're eating time here?

That's true.

Chante looked at us and nodded. Apparently, the situation seems to be contentious, and I want to get to the scene as soon as possible.

Chante looked at the village chief again and said, "Mr. village chief. I'll go. Absolutely, eggs. I will protect you." The village chief just nodded back.

The priest said he knew where the Phoenix nest was at Sheila Spirit Peak, so I asked him to guide me along. Nevertheless, it takes too long to walk. I decided to take Ulu where I could go.

On the outskirts of the village, Chante calls it "Ul--!", and that big black body pops out of the forest. With his long legs, he kicked the ground gently without a sound, and came before the tackles. The man of the priest was surprised to see a huge dog coming down in front of him. I'm sorry, but we're about to get on this thing, and I feel a little bit sorry for the priest when he says it's going to get a little more sloppy.

Sheila Spirit Peak is a mountain. Besides, it seems to be the tallest mountain around here. Therefore, Ulu's back climbing on it was very inclined. Taketo had been holding the priest's trousers, which were crawling on all fours in front of him and clinging to Ur's back, with one hand to keep him from falling. Once, I think it would have been dangerous if the tacket hadn't grabbed it, such as when Ulu jumped a little over the creek. As Ulu jumped, he jumped to the priest's body and was about to fall. I hope I'm not traumatized, but I'm worried. Despite this, Ulu arrived near the Eighth Half of the Spiritual Peak in a few hours.

From there, the slope was steeper. Brigitta also decided to walk further, saying that if Ulu, another beast, was approached too close to the Phoenix nest, Phoenix might become emotionally unstable.

The area is foggy and cool. At this point, only the tallest plants and trees grow. There was a crusty black rock skin all over the place.

When the priest came down from Ur, he was already very tired, and finally stood up.

"We're almost at the top of the mountain, and we'll find a nest if we ask where else, so you can rest here for a while."

And the priest kept his blue face,

No, I'm coming.

"Tough," he insisted on going with me and didn't let go while holding the hand of the tacket.

As a detective, even a fairly confident tacket has grown so fatigued as to climb all the way up here, it seems that this humble priest has already reached the limit of his strength. I'm still worried about Phoenix.

Phoenix's nest was near the summit. There's a big empty cave. They say that's the entrance to the nest.

The entrance to the nest was quiet and there were no signs of creatures. However, red feather-like things are falling everywhere around the cave, accelerating anxiety.

(... maybe it's too late already?

The priest ran into the cave. The tackets follow.

The cave was only about ten meters deep, and the cave inside was like a hall with a high ceiling.

"Ahhhhhhhh...."

The sight caught the priest kneeling. His moaning voice leaked out.

The huge bird nest in the middle of the cave, which is likely to be three metres in diameter, was severely ravaged. There are scattered red feathers around, and all the eggs inside are broken.

Immediately beside the nest was a bright red bird about four meters in length with a long tail, scattering its wings and falling. This must be Phoenix.

Looking closely, Phoenix's body was white and sparkling from one wing to the chest, as if it were snow-covered. He fell on the ground tightly, but sometimes he tried to get up by kicking his feet on the ground. However, all he did was squeeze his body and scatter the feathers on the ground for nothing.

"It was too late....."

Tacket bites his lips.

The nest was after the poachers attacked it.
