Yotogi no Kuni no Gekkouhime

"Uhhh!!

Serene was alone, in Helifarte's own room, waving both hands and feet rough. With Butler, I might have blamed him, but unfortunately, the butler of the rat is out on a regular basis.

"Easy, easy……………………."

Serene exhales in a rough breath, desperately attempting to take a deep breath. Yes, we have to calm down here.

"Uhhh!!

But I still can't! There is no word for restraint in Serene's dictionary. Serene, angry and cold, now jumped onto the bed and rolled out the mess.

"All of you, Sacrifice!

Serene leaned back and bit her thumbnail, thinking of the incident from four days ago to this morning's conversation with the Red Dragon in her brain.

Four days ago, Serene, who arrived safely at the Royal Palace of Helifarte, was welcomed with cheer by all the castles. The king and queen smiled softly, and Marie sneezed her face and hugged Serene, and Alye, who was summoned to the royal palace abruptly, also held Serene in tears.

"…… Serene! Great! Your sister believed you were going to be okay!

"Hey, man!

Serene also wept a little because of the emotion she had for a long time on Alye. Then, he buries his face in Alye's chest. Oh, my sister's milk is still the best. Because the king of Arquila died young, Serene had never seen his father's face, but Serene should have had this milk. I rather didn't want my father.

... and well so far so good, but then there was a problem. Under Serene's plan, shortly after returning to Helifarte, the Red Dragon had once again seized her sisters and handled her to move into the elves. But the red dragon at the heart didn't come for days.

Probably will come to see how things are going once or so, that's what I was thinking, but the feeling of time is different between dragons and humans and it doesn't show up after three days. Serene, frustrated, looked up at the sky every day and waited for the Red Dragon to come.

And this morning, a giant red dragon appeared over Helifarte. The people of the king's capital were in a state of panic at the arrival of the Red Dragon, rarely seen in the city of man, but only Serene let his eyes shine. The long-awaited dragon courier arrived.

"Kira! Dragon, Kira!

The purpose of the Red Dragon still seemed to be Serene, placing large wings on it and descending straight into the garden of the royal palace. Naturally, the Royal Palace made an unprecedented fuss, and the soldiers surrounded the Red Dragon with a total outing. This is not the kind of opponent we can do with human power, but there are no weak soldiers in the Royal Palace of Helifarte who abandon their masters and flee.

"Whoa!

A girl's voice echoed in the stuck air. It is a rushed Serene. Serene popped out in front of the Red Dragon as he sewed through the gaps between the soldiers. There was no fright in Serene's footsteps, and he offered himself before the great Red Dragon.

"Lord Serene!? It's dangerous!

"Go."

Hand controlled the bear bee, which is still likely to be slashed by the Red Dragon, Serene turns to the Red Dragon again.

"It was stuck."

"Um, looks like you made it back to the human nest without a problem. No injuries, more than anything."

At that moment, the soldiers around him turned. How dare the dragon, ruler of the world, say hello to Serene. The bear opened his mouth and was stunned that his jaw was about to come off, but the same is true of the other soldiers. Serene follows an overwhelming presence of dragons, as if they were well-trained dogs. At least that's what it looked like on the outside.

"Dear great Red Dragon, as you can see, the princess is health itself"

"If you are able to live without a breath, it is above all. You're my trump card."

Red Dragon nodded to Eagle Deep in response to Butler on Serene's shoulder. Serene is an important hidden ball for Red Dragon. You want to keep some information under cover, unlike earlier, and instead of a conversation that everyone could hear, you hammered it with a thought through the magic of Serene that you used before.

"I had no idea Lord Serene could truly obey the dragon…………"

Bear Beech did not collapse through the knife at any time, but he felt the gentle air of Serene and Red Dragon and watched as he rolled away. I'm actually having a conversation with Butler, not Serene, but the bears can't feel it.

"Red Dragon, please, there is"

"What?"

"Elf, inside, I want to go, with my sister"

Yes, I've been waiting for this moment. Serene insisted she desperately wanted to go back inside the elf, but Red Dragon just narrowed her eyes and gave her a smiling look.

"Once you came back, you said you were in the elf again? Got it. You still have the wrong elf, don't you? I guess that makes such irony. To joke about me is the guy with the liver inside."

"Chi, chi............!

"If you're hiding a tree, if you're hiding a tree, if you're hiding a man, that's what Butler said. You must be healthy for a hundred years. Then it's best to live with the humans."

"No! Elf, I want to see you!

'I want to see the elves... so you want to go to the woods? Then there's a problem. They seem to be interested in humans. Sometimes they'll come out soon. You are a human nest, take care of yourself for my glory. "

"Not really."

'If there's anything to hurt you, I'll kick your ass. Don't worry. Goodbye, then.'

"Hey, wait............!

Leaving it so good unilaterally, the Red Dragon rose to the sky again. In order to come to Helifarte, we have to make quite a detour from the Red Dragon's flying air course. The dragon has a long life span and an appropriate sense of time. I have no idea if it's a week from now or a year from now.

Thus, the sloppy resettlement plan initially conceived by Serene ended before it began. For the time being, I had to spend time in Helifarte. Every time I think back, the Red Dragon with that big attitude boils down to killing me.

"Huh-uh!

Serene squeezed her little hand and slammed it all over the bed. If you're angry, you'd think you could just wave your fist down on the desk, but if you do that, your hand hurts. Serene has a stunt that people can't boast about, which is being outraged while she's out of hand.

When he was slammed and ran out of strength, Serene fell asleep and bumped and maligned. That flying lizard. It's a little early. What a great red dragon, a guy like that is enough for a crisp.

Because the scales of the fingers cut off by the bears seemed like human finger sawdust, Serene decided to take the liberty of calling that red dragon 'Sassacre'. It was Serene's heart that stood the most, but there was no room for Serene to realize that.

"Already! Sleep!

Serene decided to put on the futon as it was and decide to sleep infidelly (preteen). I only go to bed at times like this. It doesn't have to be at this time. I slept, but Serene, who is retarded but sleeps well, immediately embarked on a reality escape journey of sleep.

"I heard the dragon showed up, but you were okay?

"I wondered what would happen for a while, but when I checked with Lord Serene, he flew away. The Elves said Lord Serene could follow the dragon, but I didn't know it was true..."

"I'm surprised, too, but more than anything if there's no injured person. I'm sorry I couldn't rush you."

"No, no, rather, is the prince all right? I think my complexion is much better."

"Yeah, I don't have a problem with being awake anymore. Thanks to Serene."

That being said, Milan laughed back at the bear bee and the bear bee nodded back as well. The bear bee, who at one time had even thought to his stomach, also said that Milan and Serene had finally regained their original condition with their safe return.

"But it must have been really remarkable. When I saw the prince's face when I arrived in Helifarte, I thought he was awkward, a dead man."

"... It was really tough then. From the doctor's point of view, if the procedure had been delayed for a few more hours, he would have lost his life."

Now it was time to recover, but Milan was half-dead shortly after arriving in Helifarte. When he ran out of magic in his battle with Gi, he was being eroded by the magic of the White Forest.

At the time we went through the woods the limits were so far exceeded, but we pretended to be flat on the road so as not to cause extra concern for Serene. Then, after depositing Serene with his royal palace squire, he fell and fell into a coma on the spot.

"It is thanks to Lord Serene that the Prince is now able to do this."

"Oh, that kid really has the power to look ahead. So much so that it seems no wonder they say they can obey the dragon."

Milan was able to take his life thanks to the strength that Serene had previously procured in Valvere. Whereas Milan was so exhausted that it was not desirable for a semi-permeable cure, Helifarte's doctor remembered that the potent was in the warehouse.

I had no use for it because it was too powerful for constant use, but if left alone, Milan would die of debilitation. Permission was granted to King Schburn, and the doctor gave Milan a dose of the fortifier. It was one or eight bets, but the effect of the drug was dramatic, and Milan, in a very short period of time, completely rejuvenated.

"Serene always helps you."

Milan squeaks pompously. Serene has a small mouth count and at first glance there are many behaviors that look odd, but that must be all I'm thinking about and doing. Proper diet, loss of shoulder strength, repair of the relationship with Marie... she spots what she really needs that she can't handle on her own, and she prepares it softly ahead of time.

"That would make a good wife. Prince, shouldn't we officially allow marriage now?

"... I told you that kid was only eight years old"

"But not buying Aotea with golden rice ho is a dumb thing to do. That wisdom, that beauty, the one who leans on Lord Serene will continue to grow more and more."

"............ I guess so"

"So, what do you want me to do? Are you going to be one of us to find another man?

"I don't mean that!

"Then I'll have to be the prince's wife."

"Your story is too extreme. Let me think a little more."

To the extent that there was a soothing conversation, Herifarte once again had a peaceful routine, but Milan now had an important project. It is a gift to Gi promised in the White Forest.

Then a few days later, completely demolished, Milan loaded the larger carriage with plenty of luggage and, with the investigative team he had recruited the other day, turned again to the White Forest. This time we arrived at the fountain where we fought the other day without difficulty. Gi and Zana had already arrived and several other elves were waiting around the fire. All of them have seen before.

"Ooh, how have you been?

"You're right. Is your injury healed?

"Injury? I don't know."

Milan was going to care about the other guy, but Gi just laughed naggingly, not wanting to get too stuck getting beat up and defeated. The swelling of the cheeks was almost inconspicuous and Milan recovered completely. Each other's troubles are disappearing.

"I don't know if the elves will like it, but I brought the best quality stuff we can prepare, I want you to check it out"

"Thank you. I've got it ready for you from here."

"No, this is meant to be in good faith……"

"It's bad you just got it. I almost hit him. It's just really crude, huh?

That being said, when Gi urged his people, he carried a large crate for two and unloaded it in front of Milan and the others. When I opened the lid of the crate, it was filled with white stone, tree branches, and leaves.

"This is......!?

"We don't know what human preferences are, but humans like magic, right? Well, it's not a big deal."

Gi answered with a slight apology as she cheeked with her index finger. What Gi prepared were stone shards that came out of the mining yard, as well as branches of second-degree items that he picked up as he collected Kamiki. It is because of the poor handling of magic by humans and the attempts by Valvere's adventurers to steal it that we have appropriately gathered it with half-heartedness.

"This is amazing! I've never seen such a pure demon stone!

"…… Huh?

Back to back with excited Milan and his squire, Gi replied unconsciously. From the elves, this time all I've got is stone or tree branches, or crap. Yet Milan and the others are taking a serious peek into the crate as if they had found it in a legendary treasure.

"If it's anything like that, it's falling to the White Forest?

"If you get such a wonderful thing, this gift will not be safe."

"Is that so?

"Yeah, it's hard to get all this magic in our land."

Even as Gi, when we are innocently delighted with what we have prepared, even though it is crude, we are somewhat pleased that we are being praised ourselves. And then I said these words.

"Something better than that, you can have it?

"You will give way to us, can you think of it?

"Yeah, but on condition."

I wonder what the hell the terms are. Milan turned nervous, but Gi just laughed.

"Your gift, more"

Thus led Milan and Gi, between the elves and humans, a small deal was initiated. Even so, it was only to the extent of bartering between acquaintances, but the differences in their environment were very beneficial to both.

Creatures living in the White Forest often have white body colors because of the white environment caused by magical influences. In other words, many ornaments are also monotonous based on white. Besides, Elf was not in the habit of using iron vessels because he was able to use plenty of magical materials, including Kamigi, which were excellent in fire and water resistance.

That's where the humans come in. Because the costumes made by humans are not magical, they are not comparable to those made by the elves in terms of strength, but there were many beautiful things of colour. This was popular with the young women's elves, and the clothes arrived in the settlement or no, it became a feud.

Popular among the elf men were swords and helmets made of iron. Because of its limitations, Kamiki is sometimes used as a substitute, but it was often treated as an antique for men in one way or another.

For the record, Milan gave away a decent golden crown. Gi was still wearing an iron pan. Giyi "This one seems stiffer and more secure".

On the other hand, the human side had also benefited. This is a reversal of common sense, since magical materials that are handled at extremely high prices on the flat ground can be taken like mountains. In this way, the scale gradually swelled while exchanging excellent materials from each other.

"Hey, you guys, can't you bring some more bulk? If I did this every time, I wouldn't be able to."

In the midst of several such deals, Gi leaked his dissatisfaction. Milan always brings in about a few people, naturally the luggage deserves it. Considering the household items on the journey too, I can't bring too many.

"Few people have magic in them. The number of people coming to the White Forest will be limited."

In Milan's words, Gi nodded.

"Then how about we go to the human city? Humans are weak when they have magic, but it's not a problem for us to leave the White Forest."

"…… Lord Gi is coming to Helifarte?

"Yeah, if they're from my settlement, they're not too prejudiced against humans because they've been watching Serene. However, we have no idea what a human city is. I want you to procure a guide around here. Can you do that?"

I laugh all the time just because Milan is cheap for you.

"Naturally. Let's name a country and make a welcome. Even if I look like this, I'm a prince."

"I'll leave that to you. There's just one problem."

"Problem?"

"Oh, it's the future. I want human supplies as well, but my settlement alone has a limit on the amount I can prepare."

In response to Milan, Gi explained the current situation of the elves. Sure, Gi is Elf's chief and the head of the biggest settlement, but it seems that a species called Elf lives dotted in the White Forest for each small settlement. At the smallest, some live on a family basis.

"I suggested they get on the deal too, but I don't get a very good reply."

"After all, you don't trust humans."

"That's the thing. We're like exceptions. The White Forest Elves hate Bockenshire. We don't have a choice."

"Hmm..."

Milan puts his hand on his chin and makes him think, but he can't think of a plan. If they say they don't like humans, Milan, who is human, has no hitter.

"So do we have to keep going on a small scale?"

"No, I have a good operation."

"Operation?"

"We'll have Serene present at our deal."

"Have a Serene? And what's the point of that?

In response to Milan's question, Gi chips and waves his index finger.

"Ready? Certainly I've never seen an elf other than my settlement before. But anyone in the White Forest elves knows that the Dragon Witch has arrived. So if you send that dragon witch to the witness, they'll be less alert."

"I mean, as a symbol of peace between elves and humans, you mean take on Serene?

"That's what I mean."

Indeed, Serene must be special to the elves who worship dragons as incarnations of God. With that in mind, as a messenger on the human side, there is no one else competent but Serene.

"I understand the outline. Let's ask Serene directly."

"Oh, I asked for it."

Thus the occasion opened, and Milan hurried back to Helifarte.

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

"…… so what do you say, Serene?

"Yeah."

Serene, who explains a certain circumstance, has a sinister face. Milan also understood that Serene was a girl who didn't want to be on the table very much, so it was his assumption around here.

"Of course we can't impose it, but this is in the interest of the elves and our country. I want you to help me if you can."

"Ugh!?

To Milan's dialogue, Serene stuffed the words. If it was Milan's personal interest, I was going to stick with 'I don't like it because it's troublesome', except when they say it's the interest of the elves and the helifarte as a whole.

I want to sell favors to the elves who should emigrate in the future, and not to mention the prince, who is being looked after by kings and queens and Marie. As a resident, I want to pay about the price of my stay before I leave.

"I am not willing to demand a special statement from Serene. You're vulnerable to the light of day, so you just have to be present for a few hours between evening and night. And, of course, we're going to pay for it."

"Ugh……………."

Though I thought it was a pain in the ass, I thought about it a little bit and Serene gave the answer.

"Sit down, if only"

"Right! Serene would have believed you would have said that!

Milan also noticed the use of Serene, a child, for negotiations, but since it is about Serene, I am sure he will say that he will cooperate for the elves and humans. He had such a pale idea, but Milan actually broke his face when he heard Serene's reply.

But Serene didn't have such a special idea. Considering you get paid just to sit there for a few hours, it's not too bad. Unlike discussions at lifelong meetings, constructive opinions are not required.

In this way, Serene took on the serious task of determining the future of the elves and humans with the utmost indiscretion that she might do with a single part-time job, but she was not aware of it.
