Chapter 21 (2/2)

“He-,Here…tea”

“You shouldn’t have”

“Just obediently accept people’s kindness!”

“Y-,yes”

In front of the puffing Melby, I obediently drink from the tea

“…delicious”

If I were to compare it to the previous world, it would be a taste similar to rosehip tea with added honey

“I see I’lad”

Saying that, Melby smiled sweetly

After that, I accidently made her melancholic

“My Master liked that tea There were no visitors lately, so there were no opportunities to serve it”

“Your Master?”

“The one who created us fairies was our Master, a Pioneer Elf The fairies in other villages were also created by different Pioneer Elves”

Then the description in 『Abaddon Magic Coht

“Where is your Master?”

“………”

Melby’s face darkens and she casts down her eyes

“Ah, no, I’ bad”

“No, don’t worry about it …Rather than that, Edgar, why did you coe?”

It feels like she forcefully changed the subject, but I decided to go along with it

“I deciphered the code left by fairies So, when I went to the back of the waterfall atthere, and then before I noticed I was here”

“Hnnn You deciphered that one, huh”

Melby stares at reat interest

Yeah, she is cute

“And also, I’ve coe”

“Rumors?”

“I would like you to hear ry…”

“Okay What is it?”

“…There was a child disappearance case in Riverette Village, you see So a racket about how it may be the work of fairies”

“What’s with that!? There is no way that’s true!”

Melby hit the table with a ‘Bam!’ and jumped up

…but you said you wouldn’t get angry

“Th-that’s why I said don’t get angry I heard that fairies are virtuous existences, so I thought the rumors were suspicious”

“Wh-ould fairies even do with hu them anyway!”

“Uhm, well…eat them?”

“We won’t eat them! How rude!”

Melby seery

…yeah, really that’s what I thought would be the case

“That code was near the place that kid disappeared from So then, it looks like they suspected they were related”

“We leave that code around the forest at fixed intervals I ask the fairies that go to play in the forest to leave them”

“Why are you doing so like that?”

“…that is…”

For so

According to 『Abbadon Magic Compilation』 fairies can’t lie

That’s why, thatthat is hard to talk about, Melby can’t e the question

“But, it’s true There is nothing to gain for fairies froin with, we are not built in a way that ould be able to……”

Mn

It’s not the 3 rules of robotics, but since fairies were created by Pioneer Elves, it’s perhaps obvious that there would be such restrictions

“Well, it’s difficult to trust us if we just simply ask you to So, until we are cleared of your suspicions you should stay in this village If you want to see some places I will also show you around”

“I’ht”

“No If there are other humans that are suspicious then stay and look around”

“But as you can see I’ht on my oould mom and the others say”

“…Now that youlike I was talking to an about 30 years old adult”

Gulp

“If you are worried about the time I don’t think there is a problee is one tenth of the outside world”

So if I stay a whole day even, only 24 hours would pass outside

It’s like the Palace of the Dragon King

“Do I also get older by that much?”

“You don’t Since this is a half-spirit world It’s like you are leaving your body behind on the other side”

“Isn’t the other half material?”

“That’s true, but for the material substance, the outside time applies A traveler that visited here before said that”

Then that means maybe only the mind is on fast-forward or overclocked?

But, at any rate, this is a rare opportunity

There is no way I would just go hoht in front of me

“…If you insist that much, I will stay for a while”

When I said that, Melby’s face suddenly lit up

“Really!? Then, there will be a party today!”

Saying that, Melby left the rooood mood

…They wouldn’t just use the suspicions as an excuse, only to use me to liven up the party, would they?

Well, if can frolic around with fairies I wouldn’t really say no to that

――At night

The fairy’s party was over and I was lying down on a bed in the log-house

Of course, because of [No Fatigue] I won’t be sleeping, but I can’t really raise ic skills in the house of a fairy either

Also, there is so on my mind

This log-house is clearly for human use

Or rather than human use, it was probably for the Pioneer Elf

However, there is no Pioneer Elf here

Since they say they are an ancient race, perhaps they have already perished, but fro that’s not the case

When Melby says 「My Master」, the e of memories of a deceased Master

Most likely, that 「Master」 is still alive

However, she can’t meet me

The fairies are cheerful without limit, but once the topic of 「Master」 coloomy

Of course, there must be some circumstances to that

So as someone that just happened to come by, I don’t want to poke my nose in it

Thankfully, fro, there was no possibility that their 「Master」 would secretly go around Riverette Village and kidnap villagers

So there is no place for an outsider like me to butt in… or there shouldn’t be

However, Melby really looks like she is burdened with so

It feels like she is breaking under the pressure of the chief’s position and her own sense of responsibility

Inas an office worker, one irls was in that state

After that, she felt responsible for aabout her after that

It’s not like I was responsible for that or anything, but I felt guilty that I didn’t lend her a helping hand

Secel and Secela also

“Please help Big Sister cheer up” “Cheer up!”

They said

――To Melby

I was thinking that, but I couldn’t cal there

I hate et sleepy at times like these

Quietly, I get up fro careful not to wake up Melby, who should be sleeping somewhere in the house

So I start taking a sloalk in the Fairy Village that is faintly bright even after the sun went down

The flowery plains are continuing to no end, but the fairies only live centered around the log-house it seems

On the outskirts of that, I’ve found an old looking te

That being said, there is no roof and the walls have also collapsed, so calling it a ruin would be more accurate

There was a staircase leading down inside there

Beside the staircase entrance, there is lid-like wooden board that was pushed to the side

And froht leaking that was inviting me

That grabbed my attention so I went down the stairs

Beyond the stairs, it was a limestone cavern

I went a few meters forwards in the limestone cavern――

“What… is this?”

There was a giant crystal looking thing

But not just an ordinary crystal

Inside the crystal, there was someone imprisoned

Silver colored long hair, skin so fair it’s alraceful bodyline And also,

――Long ears with pointed tips

“――Pioneer Elf?”

I reflexively used [Appraise] on that person

Wha-……

What, the hell is this?

“――So you’ve seen it”

My body twitched from the voice that called out to me from behind me

“――That’s right This is our Master”

When I turned around, Melby was there with a sad smile on her face
