There was an emergency when one of the eggs suddenly hatched.
　The magician ship we were on had no problems navigating, and we reached the frontier city of GianaCombe's territory a little earlier than planned.

　This magician ship...
　Not only in Guianacombe, but also in the ancient monster tribe that inhabits the surrounding area, it seems to have been widely practiced.

　I wasn't suddenly intimidated as I was the last time I visited.

　However.
　The winged monster that came to check on us seemed to have found Aela among us.
　A few winged monsters. They were often unable to leave the surroundings of the magic ship for a long time while making courtship calls.

　Nevertheless
　Since there was no hostile intent towards us, we couldn't make it indefensible, so we decided to sail with the winged monsters in tow for a while, although I felt bad for Aela.

　Soon, we began to see the high ground where the frontier city of Ghianacombe is located.

　Ghianacombe exists on a rocky plateau that looks as if it is growing out of the ground, and
　On its heights it forms a huge city made of stone.

　After sailing towards Guianacombe for a while.
　A few falconers flew in from the direction of Giana Combe.

　They greeted the falconers as they landed on the deck.
　One of them was the Chief of the Guard, Eir.

　He had previously mediated a dispute with an ancient monster tribe, and
　Yale greeted me with a big smile.

U?
　Yale asked me that in a very scary way.
'The man is married to a male dead wizard who lived in my city and is living on good terms with him, so I don't think he's coming back here.
　When I told them that, not only Eel, but even the falconer who had been following behind him, had a look of relief on his face.

　We arrived at the Ghianacombe with Eil leading the way.

　Even though we arrived soon afterwards, we were able to
　I asked Eel to take a look at the egg immediately.

　Then, Eel rolled his eyes and froze in place for a while.

　I was discussing the matter with the hawkers who had come with me.
　After a few moments, he approached me.

I'm going to ask you to keep this egg a secret for now, so that no one else can find out about it.
　Or so they say.
　We were told to wait in the magic ship for a while.

　We had an hour to wait.

　When Eel came back.
I apologize for the early arrival, but a member of the Ancient Kaiju Tribe would like to see you in secret and would be willing to accompany you to your assigned location with an egg.
　That's how he talked to us.

　When I agreed to it.
　Yale quickly transferred the eggs to the wagon fleet he had brought with him.
　We went along with that wagon.

　The girl from the Kaiju tribe that hatched
　The whole time she's been hugging Lil Pop, she keeps scurrying around anxiously.

　She's a girl.
　I wondered if I could get along with Korok, Ella and the others.
　I had both of them actively talking to me, but this girl was holding onto Lil Pop and never leaving his side.
　Other than Lil Pop, she seemed to only let Googus in on her.
Dad.
　And then he smiles happily.
　Basically, it's still the same lil' pop that's always with us.

　That's why
　Even now that she was in the carriage, the girl wasn't going to leave Lil Pop's side at all.

　That's what Lil Pop was for, though.

　This is another frustrated face to see.
　No matter who you are.

You are not welcome here.

　And that face is speaking in silence.

　Just.
　Despite that state of affairs.
　Lil Pop doesn't treat the girl like she's evil.
　Even if she was hugging him.
　I'm just going to give that kind of magical firearm a nudge when I reach for it out of curiosity, and then I'm just going to ignore it.

　Even in this carriage.
　The lil' pop that runs through it is.
　Lil Pop sits beside himself and keeps a vigilant eye on his surroundings, protecting the girl who is anxiously hugging him with her small side.

　The wagon team carrying us passed through the breach in the Giana Combe and down to the base of the high ground.
　Although we passed through three checkpoints along the way, we were able to pass through all of them with almost a free pass, since the guard chief, Eel, was accompanying us.

　What was surprising.
　The thing is that all of these checkpoints were quite crowded with people.

　Especially at the last barrier.
　On the forest side, a fairly large shopping area had been formed, and there were even taverns and inns.
There are many different kinds of sub-humans living in Guiana, and they set up shop here.
　And Eel.

　I've heard that those who save up money here will gradually climb the barrier and eventually become able to do business in the GianaCombe.
This is a place where only those who work hard are rewarded for their efforts.
　We are now in the middle of the city at the last barrier, and we entered a building with our wagons.

　There were already several sub-humans waiting inside.

　One of them.
　A tall woman walks up to Eel and shakes his hand.
This is the lord of the small frontier city of Liberty, of which I spoke earlier.
　That's what Eel introduced me to.
　This woman.
My name is Protokenra. I am a diplomat of the Ancient Kaiju Tribe.
　He says so. She bows to me.
May I see the egg you're looking for right away?
　She cut me off as such.

　I invited her into the carriage.
　I asked to see the eggs.

　Then.
　Protokenra is
This is....
　Yes, I'll exclaim on the spot and often stare at that egg in silence.

　Occasionally
'No way ... no, but this is ...'
　Protokenra was mumbling to himself.

　A while later.
　She finally returned her gaze to me.
My lord this egg is definitely from our ancient monster tribe.
　And since there is no doubt about it, there is quite a problem.
　As he said this, he pondered again.

　After a while, Protokenra called out to the squire who was following himself and gave him some instructions.

　The squire, having received those instructions, left the building shortly afterwards.

'I have sent for someone familiar with the matter, please wait a moment.
　With that said, the protokenra
　I instructed the remaining squires to have the carriage begin preparing a meal.
''From what I hear, I heard that you were sent out here as soon as you arrived... at least let me serve you a meal.
　Protokenra says that and bows her head again.

　I'm about to thank him for the offer.

"My lord, this is delicious!　Best bear!
　And Korok was already eating his food with a single mind and cheering.

　The gesture was so innocent.
　The air inside the carriage was at once soothing.

　Protokenra too.
　Not the somewhat diplomatic smile I had earlier.
　A more crushed smile was on her face.

........Come to think of it, she also said that she was an ancient monster race, but I can't help but think that there are ancient monster races that are human-sized too.
　In my image, the ancient monster race were all very large in body size.
　That's why I had this image of being forced to live in this forest.
I, too, am a giant monster that is essentially 15 meters long.
　Protokenra says and laughs at that.

　She says.
　It is said that among the ancient monster tribe, there are some who can change into human form like this
　The men are generally of high intelligence.
　This is how they are doing their external business, he said.

　As I was proceeding with my meal while chatting with Protokenra about such things
　Soon after, the squire who had just walked out returned.

　Protokenra walked up to the one who
　He exchanged whispered words with the person for a while.

　Then.
　She turned to me again and said.
The chief of the Ancient Kaiju Tribe wishes to speak with you if you would be so kind as to visit us for a few more minutes.
　Protokenra spoke to me so.
