178 Looks Like A Wooden Spirit.

Check the clock in the living room, the time is already 2 o'clock in the middle of the night.

Ain't seemed to be sleeping over a few hours, which means Chris may also have been spending some time in a difficult sleeping position.

When he made me feel even more sorry for him, I found an affordable piece of paper and wrote it down.

As for the content, a concise statement that I will write down the time now and then go for a little walk.

"... I wonder if just taking a deep breath would be enough to rest"

Quietly opening the door to Chris's house, Ain descends the stairs feeling the wood characteristic stiffness.

Is it because it's behind the woods? Where the night breeze was, I felt different from Wang Du.

"Hmm. It's more hysterical than just now"

I'm glad I brought my coat.

I went for a walk on my own. I'll give you a cold. You can't just go back and get mad at Chris.

Weaving a jacket that you can see at a glance that you are royal tames your sleeping body.

- The stars are amazing. Somehow, close?

The starry sky is full of stars, and the light of the big stars is in your eyes no matter where you look.

Fantastic to this point, I fear in the elves.

Let's go to the fountain.

Chris and I went inside, and the fountain immediately caught my eye.

Somehow he wants to go for the waterfront, and Ain follows that path with remembrance.

There is no way in the elves, so there is no problem with their path.

But in addition to the fact that it was night, it was possible that Ain would get lost in the landscape where many trees stood a little further apart.

"... unfortunately, I don't have a bad sense of direction"

Hehe, and when he smiles, he moves forward in an upbeat mood.

I've only experienced enough to count these evening walks, but when Prince Wang's self does, I don't feel bad immersed in the feeling like I'm doing something wrong.

The truth is, I didn't have an escort, so I was sure it was a bad thing.

In the meantime... I feel the warmth of Marco's sword on my hips protecting me, perhaps because of a mistake or a distraction.

Perhaps even now that it has become a sword, it still protects the second generation of demon kings?

"- No, I think it's possible, right? 'Cause those two were conscious even after they turned into demon stones... and they obviously turned me down."

I don't know what to say, but using Ishtarika's wisdom doesn't make sense.

If so, it is unlikely that Marco will be able to protect us even after he has become a sword.

I just don't have the art of judging it, so now I just have to end up being paranoid.

- Ein, who was thus whining to himself, arrived by the fountain without getting lost.

"Water...... is it okay if I try it?

Well, okay.

It doesn't work with poison anyway, and you don't have to break your stomach.

Ain moulded the vessel with his hands in brackets of height and swallowed the water.

"... yeah. It feels natural."

Too abstract, but exhausted to that one word.

It's probably like spring water, but the palate is gentle and the temperature is colder than I thought.

When he replaces the other drink, Ain sits on the big rock that was nearby.

Let's go home after a little slowing down.

That's what I thought. When two glowing balls show up, they start to circle around as they circle around Ain.

It's about the size of a fist, and the speed of flying around is as fast as a dragonfly.

"- Hmm?"

Ein, who was looking up at the sky and falling in love, notices the appearance of a ball of light.

What, an attack? and for a moment he reaches for the sword in a hurry, but when he gazes into the ball of light, he sees the shadow of a small human form.

"Who are you guys? Residents of the inside, I guess?

While I was there, I was impressed with the way the liver was handled.

When the ball of light heard Ain, it slowed down flying around and stopped in front of Ain.

Seeing it stop, Ain offered his right arm.

"Wow, wow!

"Wow... there are rare creatures!

Then two balls approached Ain's right arm.

When the light subsides, you can clearly see the little man.

He had translucent feathers on his back and floated the universe in light motion.

"Ha ha... that's a rare creature. It's the first time we've met, and you guys are gonna say it inside."

Hearing Ain's words, one of them started hanging on his finger and playing.

Shivering your body back and forth like a blanco makes you laugh with pleasure.

"I'm your sister!

"... sister?

"Yeah! Me, this kid's sister!

Speak to Ain better when you say wow, wow in the first word.

Moreover, when the light subsided, it was found that the small human form was female.

If you mentioned yourself as your sister, you have blonde hair, and silver hair hanging in Ain's hands.

Back in the year, they both look about twelve.

"- What do you say your sister's name is?

"Name? You don't have a name?

"... So should I call you sister?

"Yeah! 'Cause I'm your sister!

I know you don't mind because he says he's good in person, but it's also somewhat uncomfortable to just call him your sister.

Even so, there's no other way to call it that, so I have to call it that.

"So what the hell kind of race is your sister... eh?

I'm also curious about the name, but I wanted you to tell me what kind of creature you are.

"Um, they called me a fairy!

"Yeah! We fairies!

- I see. You're a fairy.

When I laughed bitterly at the two words, I nodded honestly for once.

Even if they say fairies in a word, that includes pixies, and there must be all sorts of races.

But I don't feel like such an intelligent (...) conversation is going to be difficult for these two somehow.

It was quite emotional when I first met her, but Ain said something similar, so I was reopening it.

"Ah! I doubt it! I doubt it. I have eyes!

"It's called a suspicious ghost, that!

- Surprisingly sharp.

Seeing the difficult emotions in Ain's brush tongue, he rose in front of Ain's face, along with a very dissatisfied voice.

Then the two fairies put their arms together and wrinkle between their eyebrows.

"... because it's not. Even if they call me a fairy, I just didn't pin it."

"- Pin?"

"Here's the thing! Pean!"

My sister tilted her neck and showed it to me, but my sister let her hands and feet stretch out with pins.

This contrasting figure creates a grin on Ain's expression.

"We're really fairies! It's amazing!

I was thinking about the meaning of Ein's words, but my sister who gives it up and insists on herself being awesome (...).

"So what can your sister do?

When asked to abandon the child, he answers this in a confident manner.

"Bye, bye! I'll find out about you!

... and I answered, staring at Ain, 'Mmmm...' he raised a voice that seemed difficult.

Seeing that, my sister shows the same trick, but in her case she gets tired of riding Ain's shoulder along the way.

The way he looked too free, he associated himself with a wasted cat in the king's capital.

"Hmm? Are you going to look into me?

"- I'm already looking into it! Be quiet!

"... Ah, yes"

Did you disturb your concentration, your sister steps on the estate waste in the air?

When that was over, I showed him how to think again, and that went on for a few minutes.

"- Yeah! After all, a rare creature!

"Wow! It's a rare creature!

When my sister also took a ride and spoke with a rare creature, she confused Ain easily.

"Er..."

I leak my voice like this naturally and look at my sister floating in front of me.

"Why? Your father and mother. Why are you the same and weird creature you are?

"... because your father (Logus) is the only weird creature, right? Your mother's a prettier dry-adder than anyone else, remember?

Ain answers with a smile, but your sister leaned her neck left and right again and again in a way that didn't make sense.

"Alley......? No? Your mother, not a dry ad. Okay?

"... what?

No, I have no idea what that means.

Without a doubt Olivia is her own mother, and she is born special, but she must definitely be drawing the blood of a dry ad.

What are you talking about? I stare at your sister with those eyes.

"The first person to (...) give birth to you...... not dry adds! Liar -!"

"Yikes! Liar, liar!"

"First...? What, huh? No way, you're lying, right?

I don't know what or how I looked into it, but if they say I gave birth first, Ain't only remembered one thing for me.

That was definitely a previous life thing, and your sister might have been exploring something that Ain't even remembered.

Rather than being a fairy, I feel like I have some kind of power close to God. Unlike his young attitude, what he was doing was far above Ain's common sense.

"I'm not the person your sister knows! So weird creature!

Oh, you mean a strange creature because you're from another world.

Where I was finally convinced of only one thing, Ain's spearhead of interest shifted to his mysterious ability.

"I don't like liars! Oh, but I'll give you this!

"I don't like it! Bubba!

"-Ah... hey, hey! Just now......!

You show up all of a sudden and suddenly you fly away somewhere.

As for Ain, he didn't accumulate because he even looked into the contents of people, quotes calling for strange creatures about scattered people.

Even the appearance of a little fairy gets smaller and harder to look at by flying away.

When he flew away to the woods before, he left Ain with a lot of confusion.

Even though I say I hate liars, I see them waving away with pleasure.

By the way, the last thing your sister fairy left was a giant doughnut about ten centimeters in diameter.

"... what is it? This, I don't know, defeat."

If you think you've been swept away, the fairies walked away calling you a liar.

Ain looks at the night sky in the direction he flew away, staring powerlessly at his arm, which remained stretched.

- Of all that, I only knew one thing.

"A fairy is amazing..."

Let's not worry about personality at this time.

Because if you look only at your abilities, what an irregular effect you have had.

"Oh? I thought you'd talk. Was it you?"

"... Mr. Cyrus?

"Are you alone at this late hour?

Similar to when it was the long house, Cyrus approached Ain with a long bow and dagger as he wrapped himself in light armor.

Would it be around at night, not particularly sleepy eyes, but lightly stopping by Ain in the footsteps?

"Evening. - We were three until just now, and now we're the other one."

I don't know how to count fairies, so I'll count with people and tell Cyrus for now.

"I see. Is it to your left?... Was it the elves you were talking to? Because I was wrong."

Asking Ain with a strange face, Ain tells Cyrus about his earlier encounter.

"I don't know what kind of race. But they're two girls who call themselves fairies."

Answering with a laugh as troubled, Cyrus raised her voice as surprised.

"- After all, are you attracted to those who draw honorable blood?"

"... to?

"And I beg your pardon. I thought the fairy you met was probably a young wooden spirit. Being vigilant and not coming close even if the other person is an elf..."

Are you the wooden spirit?

I mean, that or it would feel like a spirit living in a tree, but I never thought of it as so precious.

"It's a wooden spirit... wow, I like it. Talk to him. He's gone somewhere."

"Ha... I've never met you before, but I've asked the chief what I was like when I was a kid."

I guess I remember.

Laughing sympathetically, Cyrus coughs once.

By the way, how many years ago was it when I was a kid?

"When you have someone you like, they shake the trees and drop the nuts. And talk to whoever picks up that nut, repeat the little prank or something"

... That's all I asked, it was strange that it just seemed like a vicious beast.

But Ein doesn't speak it, he listens to Cyrus.

"That's all, it may seem annoying. But the Wood Spirit protects the person he likes."

"Protect?

How do you protect it with that weak body?

I doubt it, but it made me think that there might still be hidden power around exploring Ain's past with mysterious abilities.

"Yes. Long time ago, I heard that the Wood Spirit would protect me. I don't know what that means, but... I thought it was like a legend."

"I see..."

When Ain said so, he saw the huge dongle he had received.

"- What the hell is that?

"Oh. This was just given to me by a wood-spirited kid."

"... Your Highness must have liked that wooden spirit"
