Chapter 66 – Imprisoned Elven Village
Sticking her face out of the carriage window, Mea looked onwards.
「There it is! Over there!」
When Mea shouted, the two elves poked out their heads from the opposite window and looked ahead. Before their eyes was a part of the arm of the robot, that was carrying the carriage, a fleeting landscape, and a light brown field with a number of simplistic tents lined-up on it.
「So many already…!」
The male elf said in an almost ecstatic tone.
Everywhere, near the tents, and near carriages, that stood in line in their surroundings, people could be seen, and all of them appeared to be elves.
Seeing the two delighted elves, Torraine, who quietly sat inside the carriage, now also had a smile on her face.
Soon after, the carriage with Mea and the others stopped in line with other carriages, to which the other elves immediately flocked.
「Litt! Shall!」
「You were alright as well?!」
With such voices being heard, the two elves jumped out of the carriage.
「Turk! How many years have passed already……!」
「Haha! Hahaha! It’s like a dream!」
As a tall male elf said that with a laugh, the elf called Litt nodded with tears welling up in his eyes.
Then, seeing a female elf, who half running came from inside of tent, Shall made a loud shout and started running.
「Mother!」
Yelling that, Shall hugged that elf. Crying, the hugged elf put her hands on Shall’s shoulders.
「Shall… I’m so glad that you are fine. To think we were able to meet again…」
Mea and Torraine, who just got off the carriage, also couldn’t hold back the tears after seeing that touching reunion.
And the robot, which carried the wagon here, silently watched over that scene.
【Taiki]
「This is so touching, Taiki-sama…」
Nodding to Ayla, who said that while sniffling, I spoke.
「Yeah. But anyway, are these two sisters? It didn’t look like there is much of a difference in their age……」
Ayla awkwardly laughed when I said that.
「I can’t determine the age of elves. Despite that youthful appearance, they can appear to be the same age as their grandfather.」
