We Live in Dragon's Peak

All the way south of the continent.It is said that there is a deep mountain range where mountain ridges with rich expressions extend all the way.

The mountain people seem to live behind these deep mountains.

A mountain nation with a small but resilient body shatters the hard rocks of the mountain, digs tunnels, and processes mineral resources for trading.Uncle Rudoldo tended to tell me that he was a species that lived in peace while interacting with other species.

Anyway, we'll have plenty of time while we burn and mourn the remains of the beasts.I'm going to ask you a lot.

Southbound, huh.That means it's more southern than the Empire of the Gods, right?

"Stupid kid.The area you know is only a small part of the world.In the first place, there is a vast expanse of ocean to the south of the god empire that extends south of this land. "

"Speaking of which, the Tower of the Wise in the South was close to the sea."

Sages of the South.

"Do you know him?

"The Wise of the South, the Witch of the North.The Virgin of the West and the Magician of the East, right?It's a regional legend I heard about in the West before I came here.But only the wisest men of the south met him. "

So, do you even know Alessia?

I'd like to ask, but I'll do it again.First of all, I want to hear the story of a world that has spread all over the world.

Uncle Rudoldo spoke with distant eyes in front of the flames of mourning.

"Further south of the Great Sea Plains.There's a vast continent. "

"Eh! So there are two continents in this world!?

The Goddess of Creation created the world.One continent and the sea that covers it.But I've never heard of the second continent.

Seeing me and Sephina tilting their necks, Rudoldo lowered his eyelids a little.

Apparently, the dark feeling of wanting to die was temporarily clear.

Maybe it's because you got caught up in our stupid story?

"You don't know anything about this, do you?

"After all, I know we can help you.I'll listen to you carefully later.

Anyway, I'll ask Uncle Rudoldo to continue.

"There is only one continent, according to the religious teachings of the children.Far west of here, the northern and southern continents are connected.The east side is not connected, but it is close enough to cross the strait. "

"I mean, is the whole continent in the shape of an arc like the March Moon?

"I don't know that much.There are places I've never even visited before. "

Anyway, the continent is still one.

And if you go around the west, you can go south of the continent, where Uncle Rudoldo is from, and if you go around the east, you can catch a boat and get there.

"Mum, wait. Can we go south of the continent sooner if we go south of the sea?

"You really are such a fool.Cross the ocean? You leave the harbor and sink into the ocean in half a day. "

"Eh, why!?

"Nyah. The southern sea is home to a temperamental sea dragon."

"Nimia, is that an ancient species of dragon?

That's right.

"Well then, can't you cross the sea..."

It seems very close, very far away.

Uncle Rudoldo has traveled from such a place.

"But wait. Jabalayan also said that he has emigrated from the southwestern part of the continent.The Beasts have traveled from the southwest to the north for hundreds of years, right?While searching for resettlement sites for all races, I think traveling alone is different.Still, you can't walk from the south of the continent to here for years or decades, right?

"Average life expectancy of mountain people is not as high as that of people."

"That means around fifty years.Even if your uncle has traveled all his life?

Uncle Rudoldo, the hairy one.Deep wrinkles are hidden behind dark eyebrows and beards.But you certainly don't look like you're 50.

When I think about it, I still have doubts that the years of travel and the age of Uncle Ruddo are not proportionate.

Then, the shadow fell again on Uncle Rudoldo's eyes, which seemed to have regained his vitality.

"I've lived too long...I was summoned to my mother's mountain about 500 years ago.More than that, we have raised many, polished what can be called the supreme ball, and shaken down the battle in many (and many) lands.But.... "

Uncle Rudoldo stares at the burning remains with dark eyes.

"I'm tired and tired.Lived a long time. In the meantime, there were countless farewells.If you continue your journey for decades, you will see the same landscape wherever you go.I'm tired of living... "

"Oh, no!

Uncle Rudoldo did the same for us.I don't know about Mother Mountain, but it's definitely like Michelle and the others, the transcenders.

And Uncle Rudoldo, as a favor to the world, has lived.

However, I have lived 500 years, and my heart has shrunk, and I have lost the meaning of life.

That's why you wanted to die.

"But I can't believe you're ruining my life!

We were removed from the shackles of longevity to engage with the world. [M]And yet, it's too selfish to want to die because I'm tired of it for so long.

But Uncle Rudoldo, who actually lived ten times the average life expectancy of his species, threw up that my idea was sweet.

"Hey, kid. How much money do you think there is in this world?

"Huh?

"Mother mountain, and the existence that has brought you to charity, chooses a man of qualities.Hundreds and thousands of years later.It is no wonder that there is a world full of people who are called helpers.But actually, what do you think?Is there anything else I can do for you?How many people have you met? "

"That's...."

Except for the family who helped the dragon god with me.Speaking of other things I've met, it's like Bartonoire.

The Baltic Noir came from far east, didn't it?

"Remember that.Even if you don't have a life expectancy, you'll die.If he chokes his neck, he dies, and if he suffers from a serious illness, he dies.But the most common cause of death is suicide. "

"Eh...."

"Kid, didn't you just take it for granted that you could live forever?

"I don't have such a sweet idea.But the most common cause of death is suicide. "

But I'll think about it.

How was Baltonoir?

He was a pioneer who lost his life after a great disturbance involving the Demons and us.Again, the root of the darkness that Bartonoire had might have been "dying".

Despairing of the death of his family, he cursed the system of the world and rewarded the demons with an arrow.And I was dying.

And Uncle Rudoldo wants to die.

Living long, losing new emotions and stimuli, tired and seeking death.

Bartonoire and Uncle Rudoldo. The reason for wanting to die is different, but if you push it, you're a "suicidal aspirant" who wants to die.

"No matter how noble you are, the longer you live, the more you get tired of living.That's why you ask for death at the end of your life.I'm so tired... "

Uncle Rudoldo's dark eyes were not alive at all.

I really want to die.

But I can't admit it.

No matter how long they want to live, there are those who die in longevity.And yet, it's wrong that people who don't have a life expectancy want to kill themselves because they're tired of it!

"Uncle"

Uncle Luludo looks up at me with dark eyes.

"This is a no-go zone.This is the land where we live.We welcome those who have visited there.That's why you're invited to our house. "

"No, I won't.If you're not going to give me a guide, it would be nice to go to Dragon Peak.I hear there are handmade dragons and dragon tribes. "

"That's a mistake.The best dragon tribe is my wife, who is now in the Forbidden House.Besides, the strongest flying dragon has gone far away, leaving Dragon Peak unavailable.So, if you're looking for a handcrafted dragon tribe or a dragon tribe, come to my house. "

Well, even if you come, I won't let you fight Mistral or Revaria.

But I really want to invite Uncle Rudoldo home.

"Hospitality.So make sure you come to our house. [M]And, look. If you're our seniors, do you have enough metrics to be thanked for mourning the beasts?

"You're a good liar."

I don't care why.

Anyway, we can't just abandon Uncle Rudoldo like this.To do this, we need you to come to the Mansion first.

Well then, Nimia.When you're done mourning, will you take us all home?We need to burn it until it turns to ash, so it'll take a little longer.Let's go back to the mansion together. "

When I made the usual request, Nimia, who was relaxed above her head, cried cutely. [M]

I hate it.

"Phew!?

No, why!?

I feel like this is the first time Nimia has refused me a favor!

Sephina was surprised to see Nimia.

Nimia saw us surprised by the unexpected reaction and said with a long fluffy tail.

Stinky uncle can't ride it.

"Nah, what!

Uncle Rudoldo also looked up and turned his head in dismay.

"... there was such a disturbance."

We're back. [M]

Leave Uncle Ruddo and go to the Forbidden Mansion.

The Mistral who heard our report shook his shoulders and laughed.

Nimia's being honest.

"Yan. It was a beast."

"You collected the remains of the beast.The smell of death was sticking together. "

"That's not true. That smells like people who don't wash their bodies."

"It smells real!

"Fufufu, so what happened to Ludo?You haven't given up on persuasion, have you?So you didn't cancel the invitation?

"Yes, you're on foot!

"I asked you to wash yourself in the fountain along the way."

Sephina was laughing too.

"You can't just walk away from your promise, can you?

"Never.Because I asked Tell-chan for surveillance. "

Well, then, don't worry.

It was a little aggressive, but Uncle Rudoldo will definitely come to the Mansion.That's where the show starts.

We will definitely try to persuade Uncle Rudoldo.

I want to clear your dark eyes and remind you of the pleasure of living.

Once I couldn't connect with Baltonoir, but now it's time to save the pioneers.

Because before you can save someone, it should lead to the future of saving yourself and saving your family.

I want to live with my family for hundreds and thousands of years. [M]And I want to live a lively and fun life forever.

So first, we need to clear up Uncle Rudoldo's mind and get him well.

Now, let's all get ready to welcome you.

In response to Mistral's decree, not only us, but also the ear long tribes who lived together in the Mansion raised their voice.
