On the street outside the store.

'What do you think of this feather duster, Midia?　I think I'd look good in it, would you take it?
"Wow, those are beautiful feathers. It's like I've grown wings... so good, so nice!

　Hairpins for Manya while Midia is focused on her feathering.
　'No omissions,' she promises.

'Here's one for Anya. It will serve as a hairpin, and I think it will be useful for work and drafting.
Oh, me too?　It's practical and yet beautifully made. Thanks, mister.

　We're through the pinch!
　I'm a go-getter!
　Hahahahahahaha!

A gift I bought myself with my paycheck. It's a focale that's all the rage among the alp guards!　What do you think?　Do you like it?

　Originally it was wrapped around the neck of a Roman soldier to protect his neck, and if sent, it also means a good luck charm. The one given to me by Midea is thin, like a scarf, and seems to have been made as an ornament. I put it on right away.

Yes, this is really cool!　Can I have it?　I feel kind of strong.

　There was a time when I hated to look at it, the prototype of the tie. But now I'm very happy with it. I am a little embarrassed that it is for young people.


*The Elf Girl is here!

　And just as people were getting into a good mood, someone came along to interrupt them.

'You!　That feather duster was the one I was going to buy!　It would not be fair to intercept!

　The intruder was the elf's daughter, who suddenly started to complain to Midia.

　People were in such a good mood!　And is your schedule just a self-imposed one?　Is this elfish girl crazy?

'Excuse me, I bought it. I gave it to her afterwards - if you had a reservation?　In that case, why don't you check with the store's handlers and owner?　I'm sure the store doesn't want customers fighting with each other.

　The clerk recommended it, but if it's a reserved item, it's the store's fault for selling it. No matter how much of a mistake the store made, I can understand being angry. So I checked it out for a while.

'Yo, what's a reservation?　Anyway, I decided ahead of time that I would buy it!　I'll pay you, just be a big boy and give it up!

　He was very self-centered...

　But it's a hassle to get involved with the elves because of the disguise. I'm willing to give it up if you're willing to pay for the inconvenience to Midia...

"You show up late with no appointment and expect me to give it up?　.........well, you can give it away because fighting is a nuisance to the store, right?　Now, can I have ten gold coins?

'Hey!　It used to be a single gold coin!　Isn't ten gold coins an outrageous amount of money!

　 Can't you see that I proposed to make concessions with money to make it whole?

'Then they must have been cheap, just like it. There are many different kinds of feather decorations, and even poorly made ones look alike. Well, since you seem to have misunderstood me, I'll take my leave.

　As a matter of fact, I didn't like it from the first time I saw her attitude. Superiority at the sight of Midia's face, jealousy at the sight of her breasts. It's very easy to understand. And it's just an acorn comparison, it's a small vessel!

　Even if you're only beautiful with a face, that kind of personality is ruined. I don't find these elves attractive at all. My Midia is definitely prettier than this one, not to mention the comparison!

"I will not allow you to taunt me with your ugliness!　Duel!　You will be defeated.

　Ugh, you got yourself involved and then you pulled out your sword in the street and even started chanting?　Isn't she too low on agitation?　If it's the internet, it's the type of thing that would go up in flames.

　And is he a dumbass kid, chanting at close range even though he drew his sword?　I had no choice but to fire a cork-reducing (●) round with P229, aiming at the shoulder to avoid serious injury.

　The bullet hits my shoulder, and the elf girl easily falls backwards and loses her will to fight.
　But you scare my girl by tangling with her, and I won't let you get away with it, will I?

Blows, chants and duels are against city law. I will take you to the guardhouse. I will take you to the guardhouse. I will defend myself.

　Suddenly, the elf girl's attitude changed.

　She heard rumors that she was pampered in the human country and that she could have a good time. That's why she came out of the Arwe Forest Country, but she didn't understand the rules of the human race, but she was still stubborn because she didn't want to be made fun of.

　I understand that I want to be popular too.
　When I first moved to the city, I was a country boy myself, and I was worried.
　It's annoying, but there's nothing I can do about it, I'll forgive her in a settlement.

　I made him write a letter of intent and got him to produce his ID and money. 　Free naivete, I'll take a silver coin for study money this time.

　That's how the settlement was reached.

Your name is Windy? With this reminder and your ID, if you break your promise, you'll be sent to the guardhouse and have a criminal record. You learned a good lesson this time. But I would recommend that you return to your country quickly before you are deceived by an evil person, don't you?

　The elf girl replied and ran away crying... but no thanks for the settlement. Well, I'll have to get the authorities to approve it, otherwise the memorandum won't have any effect, so let's save ourselves the trouble.

　What a disaster to be entangled with a strange elf. I'm afraid of the city.

　Now that I'm tired of being stingy, I'd better get on my way to the castle, but for some reason everyone pretends to be strangers. We settled the matter in a gentlemanly manner by protecting Midia from the elves who came in for a foul play. Isn't this usually a situation where people are grateful and like it?　So how did they treat you like this?


At the King's Castle

'Who the hell is your father, Palio?　Normally, you wouldn't get permission to visit a national treasure so easily, would you?　Hey!　Don't go inside the white line!　It says on the cautionary billboard that you will be paralyzed and freeze!

　The two local recruits don't look at the notes and instructions much............................I'm in trouble.

''We have definitely confirmed Aigis's shield and divinity. However, the records are vague about contact with the gods, only saying it was given to him by an oracle. There is no choice but to investigate other heroes and gather information. But first, to renew your license, it's Sela-sama's territory, right?

　In comparison, the window flower is dependable. While firmly keeping to the rules and regulations, I immediately examine the shield and check it with the divine tool. And yet when it comes to Midea and Manya........

'Yeah, that's a great idea, let's get out of town, shall we?　I've got all my stuff packed up at the inn, and I don't like the city.
I agree. We've done the shield test, let's get out of the city, okay?

　However, the girls have a point of view. There's a little bit of time to spare on the deadline, but there are quite a few elves in this city. It might be safer to leave the city before they find out that Midia is a fake elf.

It's true, we've got confirmation and no more clues. I think we should go to Alpu to renew our license. Window flower, please don't send an email to the goddess, okay?


Aigis Shield Country

'You left so easily after your visit I was just checking to see what it was, but it was just as the prince expected.

"Hmm, if you hide it badly, they'll probe your belly, which won't hurt. In fact, he's probably just an investigator. It was a grimace at the Elves, but if it's a settlement, there's no need to worry about getting into trouble with the Arwe Forest Nation. The situation is right for that guy, but I wonder why he looks like the bad guy...

'Come to think of it, it's an amicable solution and the settlement is a conscientious silver coin. I wonder why?
Well, we're all good. We'll sneak the rest of you out.


In front of the checkpoint at Lyons again

'The city has sold me farm tools at a discount, and I am ashamed to say that our country is poor, so I am grateful. Now, please feel free to come by.

I'm glad to hear that the farm implements were a hindrance to your journey. So I will leave you to it.

　There was a lot going on, but I managed to get information on the heroes. Aigis's shield was also a real divine tool, so there's no doubt that the gods are related to the 7 heroes. As for the investigation, it's a step forward.

　But the deadline for the temporary demon exterminator is near.

　That's why we interrupted the hero investigation for a while and left for Viscount Sailor.



A certain place in Japan
There is no doubt in my mind. If you don't mind me asking, is this normal for an elf?
"...maybe ...local ...rules ...
