“I don’t like it.”
Luna, who was handing out cookies made by Zero and Leaf to the pirates, said as she entered the cabin, and Rachel, who was pushing cookies full of cheeks, raised her head.
“Where?”
Luna stared blankly at Rachel, whose pronunciation was muffled, probably because she stuffed her cheeks with cookies so much, and then smiled brightly.
Seeing that, Rachel chuckled and clapped her chest as if her throat was somehow choking.
“That’s right. Think of what our young master is going through in the capital city or here.”
Why do you want to torment the young master so much?
As Luna put a hand on her cheek and tilted her head, her droopy ears twitched in the air.
“Where else is there someone we need to protect as much as our young master?”
Adelian, who was very arrogant and grinning at the pinnacle of luck, flashed in Rachel’s mind for a moment.
Rachel gasped, then hurriedly split the coconut and drank, pounding her chest again.
“Adelian?”
“You are too weak. Did you forget that you went to a strange dungeon and suffered because of those mermaids this time?”
Rachel laughed awkwardly at the fact that Luna’s deep pink eyes, which speak of mermaids, seemed to have a little more red.
“Ah, ah. We went through all the hardships together. is not it?”
“We only slept.”
Oh, that’s right.
“He was a person who couldn’t breathe properly in the water and couldn’t move… … .”
Didn’t we do that too?
“Right now, the young master has urgent matters, so he just moves, but shouldn’t we prepare for the mermaids?”
Shouldn’t the mermaids prepare for us?
Rachel couldn’t help but mumble.
Some might think that at this party, without Adelian, Kane would be the leader.
because it is the strongest
‘But in fact, the actual leader is Luna… … .’
Kane is actually smart, quick to judge the situation, and knows how to plan the best strategy.
Knowing and doing are different.
Rather than explaining and framing it, Kane is actually a guy who likes to shut up and charge.
It’s a little more kind to Adelian and Luna, who have been together for a long time.
‘Zero, he’s a senior, so he’s handing over the initiative right away.’
Besides Adelian and Kane, Leaf is the only one who can communicate with Luna, and Rachel herself is strangely weak to Luna.
Levi also became quite friendly with Luna, who played well.
Thanks to that, Luna, who gets a bit more venomous when Adelian falls out, feels like the leader.
‘But something is scary today?’
Luna laughs, but somehow chills run down her spine.
“no… What are you talking about outside?”
What did you say Luna, who went to hand out cookies, came back with her eyes slightly glistening like that?
Rachel somehow lost her appetite and began to eat the three or four cookies one by one.
“No, the story came out by chance. Everywhere I go, an incident keeps happening.”
It’s because someone got lucky.
Looking at Luna, who smiled, Rachel couldn’t help but open her mouth.
‘… Isn’t that wrong?’
Rachel began to listen to what Luna said one by one.
So, the conclusion was not the words that came from Adelian’s sniping.
From noble mtl dot com.
In the Namhae Islands, nobles are usually unlucky. The unlucky guy doesn’t even stick to the trait. It’s unlucky to see brightly colored hair that is shiny and visible in the sea. An unlucky man meets a mermaid.
Well, most of these small talk points to one person.
It wasn’t an overt sniping, but the pirates probably said a word or two while they were chatting among themselves as usual.
That must have been the reason why Luna came in without saying anything outside and showed off such a bad feeling.
‘Ah, but after hearing all that, Adelian gets into the predicament of being so unlucky?’
He has a good-looking face, but he is very arrogant and shows off his cheekiness, so people who see him for the first time secretly say that he is unlucky.
‘But he’s not really cocky every day, so why is the atmosphere like that?’
While Rachel raised a question mark above her head, Luna opened her mouth.
“This is all because of the Evil Gods, the princess, and the mermaids.”
Rachel blinked her eyes at the logic that seemed to know something or not, but Zero and Leaf nodded as they brought the last basket of cookies that would fit in Rachel’s mouth.
“You’re not wrong, senior.”
‘why?’
Rachel shook her head, took the cookie basket, and then tilted her head.
[I agree.]
Watching Leaf write on the newly obtained board, Rachel opened her mouth.
“why?”
At Rachel’s question, Luna looked at her with eyes that seemed so natural and opened her mouth.
“Well, if it wasn’t for the church, wouldn’t the young master not have to go through this ordeal?”
Rachel nodded at first when she said that she must have enjoyed only good things at the home of Laves.
When I heard it, I was right.
“In addition, Adelian-nim’s incompetence became more prominent as he became entangled with 1st Princess Seria. In fact, there was even more unnecessary criticism.”
Adelian may have wandered around the ecliptic without much thought, but those with good ears have heard all the gossip.
Rachel nodded at Zero’s words as well.
[The same goes for mermaids.]
Well, that’s it, I had a hard time thanks to them not too long ago, and since the secret I had hidden so far was exposed, there was no reason to refute it.
“So I’m worried. What if the young master collapses like that?”
You’re still weak. Luna sits down and takes a bite of a cookie, but Leaf nods.
[It’s unfortunate that you have to try the green juice to see the effect.]
“Including what I heard, how many times have you already collapsed?”
Should we add more meat to our diet? Watching Luna and Leaf nod at Zero’s words, Rachel shrugged.
“Ah, but isn’t Adelian stronger than a normal human?”
At those words, except for Rachel, Luna, Zero, and Leaf’s eyes widened and stared at Rachel.
And somehow, Rachel is what, why, what! and opened his mouth.
“Yeah, that’s right. To be honest, he’s not a good person.”
“But you collapse all the time?”
A bridge in the labyrinth… It’s the same when you cut off. Even when you meet a dragon. Even after the Cyclops subjugation, when he took medicine from the princess, and when he got caught up in the whirlpool this time.
Whether or not she flinched at the sound of Rachel meeting a dragon, Zero nodded at Luna’s words as she pointed her fingers one by one.
“Aren’t you able to wear it even after coming?”
If you wear an aura, you’re an aura user! Rachel was stunned. Most of the party members were master level, so it seemed that the users were easy to come to, but it was never common.
[Besides, you don’t have regenerative power.]
That’s because he’s a normal person. Still, perhaps because he grew up as an aristocrat, his basic vitality itself is strong, and perhaps because he grew up eating good things, his body’s mana is also balanced.
However, in their eyes, Adelian, who is not an Auror user, wants to fly away when the wind blows or explode when squeezed tightly.
No, if they squeezed it, it would explode.
Rachel clutched her head with a confused expression on her face.
“No, so it’s weak by our standards, but… … .”
If they leave us out and throw them among the common people, they’ll be able to massacre?
Even if only the magic crystals were replaced and the low-class magic of the upgraded codex was used sparingly, it would be a threat to real ordinary people.
“Anyway, I’ll make you pay for everything later.”
Rachel drank tea in a daze while Zero and Leaf nodded at Luna’s words with a light red flag in her eyes.
‘It’s not that I don’t understand.’
Why does Rachel herself have a mysterious trust in Adelian?
Somehow, the belief that everything can be solved.
It was questionable.
* * *
The water rose. But I didn’t think it was dangerous.
The basis for the judgment was that Kane did not move by his side without any action.
‘And I think my judgment is correct.’
As I was drawn into the mirror-like lake, there was water again under my feet.
Like flipping a discus. Without falling into the water, I walked on the mirror-like surface of the water and headed ashore with Kane.
As they entered the water, the size of their bodies also decreased. Outside, the fairies that would have been a little bigger than my hand are now the size of us.
“It’s human, human!”
“But there are traces of another queen!”
Everyone flies around with candies the size of their heads. A very slightly different appearance from the fairy seen at the border of Gavioren.
The fairies there were miniature elves of the forest, with wings like those of butterflies, and decorated their nests with flowers, mushrooms, and leaves.
But this is the sea fairy’s nest.
corals and shells. With a nest decorated with conch and seaweed, it resembles a mermaid, and its wings are sharper than those of a fairy in the forest, slightly resembling the fins of a fish.
‘It was also true that I did not receive a kiss from the Fairy Queen’s blessing at the border, but instead received a seal representing friendship.’
Or he would have had to forcibly penetrate this place with the help of Kane.
Then friendship would have hit rock bottom. I don’t know right now, but there may be something that catches my ankle later.
As I walked along the flying fairies, as if to come here, I saw a rather ornately decorated space inside.
“A human with the scent of another Fairy Queen.”
Unlike other fairy houses, it is a space made of white and red corals and shells containing pearls.
Could it have been picked up from a shipwreck? In the center of the figure decorated with sparkling bracelets and necklaces hung from coral branches, the Fairy Queen, slightly taller than the other fairies, was sitting at an angle.
“Meet the Fairy Queen.”
As we are sucked into the water, our size has shrunk in advance, so the height of our field of vision is right. When I bowed my head slightly, the Fairy Queen smiled brightly.
“Even the appearance of attracting interest by rolling candy first in the scent of another queen. I didn’t think they were humans who came to hunt us, so I called them… … .”
The Fairy Queen’s eyes move to Kane, who stands silently next to me.
“It is dangerous to stay here for a long time. What are you here for?”
I wanted to bring a cake or cookie, but there was no point in putting it in the subspace unless it was a simple sugar lump candy.
I smiled as good as I could as I pulled out a new jar of candy.
“There is only one thing I want. Let me get the Windscale Cloak.”
At my words, the Fairy Queen, whose eyes were focused on the candy, raised her head.
“How did humans know that and came here? Did the Fairy Queen of the Forest tell you?”
“What is the importance of the source of information? It’s just that I know it exists, and I’m standing here right now, and I know I deserve the bare minimum.”
After thinking about my words, the queen smiled like a naughty girl and gestured to me, and nearby fairies flew in and carried the candy bottle in my hand.
The candy bottle was as small as I had shrunk since I came here, but when I put it near the queen and touched it a few times, it returned to its original size.
I looked at the candy jar, now as tall as I am, before I opened my mouth again.
“You said you accepted the present.”
“Even though it is the treasure of the fairies. doesn’t care. I prefer candy.”
The sea is a place where there is neither sap nor fruit. I hate boiling coconut sap all day.
The queen rests her chin and smiles.
“Because you’re human anyway, so you won’t be able to use that item properly. I think it will be fun.”
I laughed as harmlessly as possible at the Fairy Queen’s words.
“In that sense, how about the Queen of Sea Fairy also recognizing me?”
“why me? A cheeky human like you?”
Do not work hard, arrogance!
I opened my mouth as politely as possible.
“Because that would be a lot more fun. do you know Will I be recognized by the other queens and use the cape freely despite being a human?”
At my words, the Sea Fairy Queen giggled and waved her hands.
“good. Well, he seems like a cheeky person with a mouth, but I think it will be fun. Give me another bottle of candy instead.”
Sweet tooth and childlike curiosity. Thanks to that, I took out another bottle of candy with a sigh of relief at the permission I received more lightly than I thought.
