Volume 5 Intermission 4 (1/2)

Interer-sanMy name is Yusala Touya, an elf as born in Bornean forest

”Manager, the preparation is complete”

The one who calls h she wasn't even as tall as rown taller than me before I knew it

Hurows fast

”Let's go”

She answersrucksack below her feet on her shoulder

She presents another

That's e huh

”Laborer”

”We can't We don't have extra money for that”

I tried to tell her that I wanted to hire a laborer to carry the luggage, but it was rejected Since she's in charge of the shop's accounting, I can't push it too much

It can't be helped, I put my favorite staff in the rucksack, and shoulder it

”I've putin the bento, so let's do this energetically!”

Hou, it's quite rare for the economical Nadi to look out for others

My lips gets slightly loose Since the sharp-sighted Nadi grins when she quickly sees it, I tighten it hard

◇

”Let's enter the mountain from around this area”

Nadi says so while showing the map to me

We tie the horses that we rode here on trees Just in case, I sprinkle medicines to ward monsters around them

We're in the middle of a job frorey ratkin people who live on an undeveloped land deep in the mountain

Nor job, but since he's taking care a girl from my race, I couldn't decline it

Rather than saying I cannot decline, nore

But a good-hearted person he is, he requested the job forold coins

as the payment I wanted to tell that I didn't need the money, but Nadi quickly blocked my mouth and I was stopped

”Manager?”

”Sorry”

I lost in thought for a bit

”Then, please”

”Umu”

I use the secret art for walking in the forest

”■■■　■■■　■■■■■■■ Wood Walk”

Green aura wraps Nadi and me

It's been awhile since I use this ic

While we're advancing through the forest in these states, branches and weeds as tall as grown man avert themselves from us

”This , no matter how many time I see it”

”Is that so”

I feel slightly eht praise

As a nihilistic grown man, I have to remain expressionless

I guide Nadi while we continue advancing thethehway

”Ah, that's the firefly lily of the valley flower!”

”We can't”

Yes, while we're using this ic, we cannot hurt creatures of the forest Once we do, the ic won't be usable for a season

”So it's like that, aah, even though we could get five gold coins from the alchemy shop with that flower”

I lead Nadi who keeps staring at the flower in regret by hand, and advance ahead

I wonder if there was a big hts of rocks and trees that are gouged unnaturally Did soh level monster have settled down in this forest?

I was going to use ic to check it, but then I noticed that my hand was still joined with Nadi's I want to separate our hands, but she doesn't let it go

”Nadi?”

”Err, there, it's separated”

It's rare for the intelligent her She's really interested with the flower before is she

I'm worried with her condition, but I have to confirm the safety first

”■■■　■■■　■■■■■　■■ Forest Whisper <natural whisper=””>>”
