I'm sorry to disturb you, but I heard that Homura has a store in Fast and I need you to hide one of the residents there.

Hiding?　Fine, but it's a small place. And there are other people.

　I replied to him, but the general store (here) seems to be a bad place for many things: ....... It's under attack by players right now. Oh well, we can take him to the clan house. I'll talk to the others later, and if not, I'll ask Misty and the others to hide when they come in and out of the house.

Thank you very much. We'll get a safe house for you in a hurry, so give us a few days. The house is between Albar and Valnor, and we are at Sadiras just beyond. I should be the one to take you there. ......

Please don't do that, because I'm afraid I'll get tangled up with Yuni's followers. I'll call you when I get to Albar. Maybe I'll wear a mask that blocks recognition.

　I know that Yuni's cronies who were playing other games with her have moved on. Or rather, they are the poor cronies who don't know what's inside of Yuni, who formed a clan called [Saint of Purity and Knight of the Zodiac] and waited for her because she missed buying a visor for her work. Unlike Kuroyuri's place, they don't cause obvious trouble to the people around them, but for now, I don't want to get close to them.

　I heard that the transfer gate of the temple is restricted and must meet certain conditions before it can be used, but I heard that a player who has a transfer is offering to transfer it for a high price. I was introduced to this service, but I can go there by myself. If you use <<>, you can transfer to someone who has Patoka, but don't use it. I don't want to be surrounded by believers or find myself in a bathroom when I transfer.

　In the meantime, I made a mask that has the effect of blocking recognition and ......, and found just the thing. When I experimented to see if it is possible to [grant replacement] for the grant that I put on the object made by others, I put [recognition inhibition] on it. The replacement was not possible. It seems that it is limited to the equipment and items that you made by yourself.

Eagle and Galahad, who asked me in confusion. Is it because of the fact that they are all wearing the glasses in front of me or is it because of the difference in level? I guess it is the former, since Lapidus and Noel also know.

　The nose glasses were rejected by all. The alternative masks were made by Kuzunoha, who hastily applied the [recognition inhibition] to the masks. If the place is Sadiras, I went to the house to get the masks for Kal and Galahad, who wanted to go with me.

Thank you. I'll get some hinoki (Japanese cypress) from Fuso one of these days.

Kuzunoha was originally the daughter of a Noh mask maker before she was possessed by Tamamo, and she seems to like making masks. I remember that when I took her out of the seal, she said she wanted to smell the cypress forest.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Since there are no trees suitable for making Noh masks in the garden now, she makes masks by pasting together papers that were scribbled down during the copying process. As well as the hinoki, [carpentry] has improved a lot, and I think I should start making the Japanese house that you requested.

The lineup of masks presented to us by these people is more than Okame, Hyotoko, and Tengu....... No foxes?　No, there are a lot of different patterns from white to black over there, aren't there?

"Fuso masks are quite unusual. The white and full face may represent the goddess of fertility.

It's a beloved face that brings good fortune, right?

Galahad, the tortoise's counterpart would be a flapjack, no. You can't have the glasses, but you can't have the face!　An accident is occurring in which Cal and Galahad put on the turtles and the tengu honestly.

Fortunately, I'm surrounded by nice guys. For Kuzunoha, he's a stranger, a man. I should be sorry.

"No problem. I'll have to get used to facing Tamamo ......, because I'm sure the fox is surrounded by men. But I still want to harass him when I see him."

　In the end, Kuzunoha produced a fox mask with a different pattern, but I was able to get them to agree on the fox mask by insisting in an embarrassing way that I wanted them to match the turtles and the tengu, which they unexpectedly liked.

　If you like them, you can take them with you," Kuzunoha said, and the turtle and the tengu were added to Kalu and Galahad's belongings. ....... --If you see a knight wearing a strong turtle mask and a warrior with a tengu mask somewhere during the event, please pretend that you did not see them.

　It took some time, but I moved to Isle and rode to Albar from the fire gate of Alsuna, the capital city. The main equipment is the coat of the silver-winged wyvern, and the cavalryman is a white tiger, but many cavalrymen have tigers, so I'm not worried. The other Cal, who is not fine with tigers, is riding in the back.

I switch to party conversation because of the speed at which my voice flies. Galahad's horseman tile is faster than the white tiger's, so I sometimes stroke the white tiger to calm it down so that it does not run out of stamina. The tile sometimes adjusts its speed to keep the white tiger from going too fast and running out of stamina.

　I am in a moment of bliss with Galahad's tiles in my view while pretending to be a white tiger, wishing I could improve my judgment and player skills more, instead of just playing skillfully. I like the supple movements of the leaping feline, though I also like the joyful galloping of the canine. Oops, I have to go and do something.

　The night breeze is pleasant and we forget about the turn-of-the-century events in the forest. I have only been to the rich forests of the Isle and the rocky mountains to the north, but I have heard that the empire beyond the small countries has almost no trees apart from the forests where Merlin lives. There are veins of various kinds of ore, and the trees are used not only for the people's livelihood but also for melting the ore, so that the skilled people plant more trees than they can consume.

　And although the event is anything goes, the players do not seem to be attacking ordinary residents at will. The targets are residents of some rank or well-known names in quests, and while there are some who are unscrupulous, there are also players who hunt them, so that a delicate order is maintained between the residents and the gentiles.
