Chapter 256: The Secret Phrase, and the Snow Wolf

「I’ve never seen those letters」(Faa books and secluding herself in the castle library, about those particular letters, but she just says those as a reply

「Those characters look different even though they aren’t so much different from the secret letters of Arte to the language of Paruteno… Those letters didn’t exist before the collapse of the Paruteno Civilization… that’s how masters called it」(Faaht have appeared after the ancient civilization collapsed and they’re already been lost in the current era?」(Touya)

「It’s not only that What’s mysterious is that those characters remained absolutely unknown for about 1000 years By ht have been the letters used only by a minor tribe」(Faam)

The place where we found those ruins is the former capital of Belfast However, those letters aren’t from Belfast By any chance, was it this minor tribe, which was destroyed by frazes later on, who had created those underground ruins in the territory of the former capital? But what for?

「Can you read those “secret letters of Arte to you, resemble this characters?」(Touya)

「I cannot In the first place, the tribe which used the secret letters of Artema was a tribe that didn’t leave behind any books, and I only saw a part of those letters as references」(Faaht’ve been the descendants of that tribe who built the ruins in the for the/Secret letters of Artema」(Touya)

The letters are translated after I invoke theIt’s the sa a person experiences when he or she understands chinese language to soh it’s very likely the sas if the countries are different

For exae of context froirl], but the same word in chinese can, in a certain sense, raph perhaps has those intuitive differences with the secret letters of Artema How should I say this? It’s at the level where I can understand the words here and there rather than whole sentences

「Our red… shi+ning deht? Black knight? … tiuess Once again… dead bodies… pouring…?」(Touya)

Mu demon” is the “fraze” and perhaps the “town” refers to the “forht Baron? Still, what does “small” refer to?

“Our” supposedly refers to the fellorote this pictograph, but since “Our” has been written in plural form, it may refer not just to an individual but to this minor tribe

I don’t knohat the “Red” after the “Our”like “Our readhead tribe” Is that part of the name they went by?

The “repair” word, could it possibly mean that they “repaired” the world barrier?

If that’s the case, this “red” tribe ht possess a skill or possibly a technique like that It ht even be an object siuess I found out nothing」(Touya)

「Seeain 1000 years ago and destroyed the former capital That’s a certainty Someone has defeated or repelled them and repaired the world barrier

I really want to knoho did that It can’t be helped I have no other choice but to do what I can do since I’h even if I say that, I’roup, and I’ards to the knight order If I’s that I can do, they a Alba-san produce new cohts, the s uild master Rerisha-san

「Hi, please speak」(Touya)

『I’h I know that you’re busy, but we have an eency』(Rerisha)

「What happened?」(Touya)

『A behemoth has appeared』(Rerisha)

A behemoth, the one also referred to as “ic beasts who seldoantification to abnorainst a behemoth called the Twin-tailed Scorpion “Scorpinas” Of course we fought using fraears

『The place is the snow field “Sunora” in Elfrau Kingdos to the winter wolf “Sunora Wolf”』(Rerisha)

Speaking about beheain special abilities I don’t knohether they acquire theantification or it’s because of that ability that they gigantify though

The behe acid from its tail Apparently, an ordinary scorpinas can’t shoot anything beyond a weak venom

This time, the one called “Sunora Wolf” seems to possess some peculiar ability…

『Her Majesty The Queen of the Elfrau Kingdoate this Sunora Wolf, but it’s power is dreadful It has already reat deal of dauild has also suffered casualties of dozens of red-ranked adventurers and up to a single silver-ranked adventurer The wolf has already destroyed a s』(Rerisha)

「A silver-ranked adventurer too…?」(Touya)

There are only but a few people in this world with silver rank Me too I’ve only been proon Slayer], the [Golem Buster] and the [Deed to reach a rank higher than the golden rank after defeating the twin-tailed scorpinas, but I’ve fought in a fraear at that time

Perhaps that killed silver ranked adventurer was ai the behe this, Her Majesty The Queen has sent a subjugation request for the Sunora Wolf to His Majesty The Sovereign King of Brunhild How should I respond?』(Rerisha)

「It has been sent to ht?」(Touya)

『That is so On paper, anyone can take that request if he’s a gold-ranked adventurer The reward is a hundred king gold coins In addition to that, a single ite will be presented from the royal treasury』(Rerisha)

Muu Certainly, there is no need to expressly leave it to me I have no connection to Elfrau whatsoever, and there’s one randpa who’s already retired

However, if I leave it be, the people of Elfrau will likely becoh in a practical sense, shouldn’t two to three of our knights riding on frao?

In that case, it won’t be old-ranked adventurer” who defeated it butof Brunhild”… No, it’ll be interpreted as if I’ve ordered the knights to bring it down

Perhaps either way is fine for Elfrau, but I suppose I should personally go there this ti I want to test out Moreover, it’ll be annoying to be regarded as soold-ranked adventurer just because of the fra with just my body on this occasion

「I understand I’ll take this request Please send me an email with the exact location attached to it」(Touya)

『Thank you veryup the call from Rerisha-san, I immediately call Kousaka-san and inform hih he should’ve already been familiar with this kinds of scenario

It ent under the ihed every time his rowdy feudal lord had slipped out of the castle I smile because my relationshi+p with Kousaka-san parallels theirs

(TL: 御側御用取次 – found no translation, the only thing I found is that it’s an agency of close associates of powerful shoguns during different ages)

A ringtone for new mail notification resounds with a sound si the arrival of thethe Sunora Wolf’s exact location The soldiers of Elfrau have apparently been following it as observers It see at a considerable distance since it can sdouess I should first transfer there with [Gate] and then move to my destination with [Fly]

「Gate」(Touya)

Leaving behind Faam, I transfer to Elfrau… So co-o-o-o-o-ld!! As expected of the land during mid-winter This coldness is no joke as always I’ve cootten about it!

「H-Heat co cast the war ht I’d die

I open the map and confiruess I should look for the soldiers of Elfrau first」(Touya)

I’ve never seen the soldiers of Elfrau, but I should be able to catch them since they have the appearance of soldiers identifiable froo Those should be the observers

As I immediately start to soar with [Fly], I can see several soldiers in the forest near the snowfield

I land near the bulky clothes and fur hats which look like Russian “Ushanka” hats to fight against the cold, take a stance with their weapons all at once against me who has suddenly descended fro of Brunhild I’ve coate the snoolf “Sunora wolf” Who’s the person in charge here?」(Touya)

「Are you saying you’re “The Sovereign King of Brunhild”?!」(Elfrau Soldier)

With my feet buried up to my shank in the snow, I la siuild card frouild card… certainly…」(???)

「If that’s the case, shall I suears here?」(Touya)

「N-No, I’ve heard fro Her Majesty The Queen requesting assistance I’ this unit,the ten-odd people, a giant with a solid build who’s one head taller than the rest introduces himself I do wonder if they can really believe what I’ve just said, but they seem to have easily accepted it

I’ve heard about this latter, but it see a staff uild, often talks aboutattention to it, for better or worse

Just in case, he still confirenuine

「Now then, the Sunora Wolf is located beyond this point, right?」(Touya)

「Yes It has eaten several Brudboars on the snowfield, so I think it won’t befor a while」(Aleksei)
