I was in the shower with Korok.
"So, why did Korok come along?
"I wanted to see my lord, bear.
I know how you feel, but I told you to wait until it was too dangerous.
"So the Koroks bear the protection of their lords.
　It seems that Korok still thinks he's answering my question in a serious way.
　After that, the conversation between me and Korok has remained on a parallel track from start to finish.
　In the end, I ended this conversation by breaking off the conversation.
Don't ever leave my side, okay?
　I told him so.
　Then Korok instantly took me in his arms.
"Okay, bear, I'll never leave.
　He smiled happily as he said that.
　........Apparently, it seems that everything will be interpreted in a way that is convenient for Korok.

　Well, thanks to Sarah, it seems that we were able to avoid a lot of danger, and it will be safe as long as we stay in this inn that we are allowed to use as a place to stay.
　
　It's a very good idea to be able to have a good time with them.

　Incidentally, Dodona of the golem tribe is helping to bury the carcass of the unicorn gryphon, which has been transformed into a magical beast, and the other two guards are in the middle of helping with the work.

　Unlike ordinary vermin, the unicorn gryphon has an extremely strong toxin in its body that makes it unfit for food, but if left unchecked, this toxin will begin to decompose and produce the germs that cause depa fever.

　Riknas bowed his head again to me.
'Dodona-san has really helped me. It's just that Urinacomb is not even ready for digging a hole right now.
　Riknas laughs self-deprecatingly at that.
　I tapped Riknas on the shoulder.
Anyway, let's start with what we can do. We'll help you.
Thank you. I owe you.
　At my words, Riknas once again bowed deeply.

　I introduced Foldente and Sara to Riknas.
　After they finished greeting Riknas, we spread out the map that he had brought with him on the table and settled in around it.
　This map has the destroyed areas of the frontier city of Urinacomb checked out in red.
　This is the same one that I was shown by Rycknas a while ago.
For now, it's imperative that we restore the destroyed walls of the city.
　Foldente said as he stared at the drawing.
　Me and Riknas nodded at his words.
　Then Sarah, who was looking at the map, turned her gaze to Riknas.
''So, where can I get the stones that can be used for the walls?
'Oh, oh, then, from around the ravine here...'
　As he said this, Riknas pointed to a mountainous area a short distance north of Urinacombe.
''Well it's a bit of a distance, and I can't help but hire some workers there...''
　It's a good idea to be able to have a good time with your friends.
　In contrast to such a Riknas, Sarah picked up the map and
'You can use the stone here, all right.
　With that, he left the room with a map in hand and a stalwart.
　I'm not going to be able to get to the bottom of it.
You know where you are, Sarah? You don't even have a sense of direction for free!
Yeah, it's all right. It's just that way.
What's wrong with this place? The ravine is this way, not that way.
Nuh-uh-uh?
　Such an exchange between Foldente and Sarah could be heard from the corridor.
　At the voice, Riknas had a slightly confused expression on his face.
　Those two?
'Oh, it's okay, you two are always like that, you'll get used to it.
　I laughed at Riknas as I said that.

◇◇

　The next morning, just as it was still early in the morning
Hey, can I just...
　Riknas rushed into my room with a change in his blood.

　As usual, Riknas still seems to have joined the night watchman and stayed up all night, and the dark circles under his eyes are darker than yesterday.

''I, no, it doesn't matter, it's more important, that, that.......''
　While saying this, Riknas was pointing out the window.
　The place where he was pointing at was a structure that did not exist until yesterday.

　Yes, the city walls.

　This was something that Sarah had worked on and restored during the night.
　As a salamander, Sarah is able to summon large numbers of skeletons.
　When Liberty was promoted from a village to a frontier city, she used these skeletons to build the city's walls, excavate the layers of scales, and maintain the city's roads through the night.
　The work could only be done in the middle of the night, as the bone humans would disappear after being exposed to sunlight.
　Nevertheless, Sarah could summon thousands of bone humans at a time, so she could proceed with the work by manpower and sea tactics.
　As a result, even though they had only worked on it one night, a considerable length of the city wall had been repaired.

　When I walked with a surprised Rhynchus towards the repaired castle wall, I found Sarah in a corner where she was collecting the dust from the bone men who had disappeared in the sunshine with her magic bag.
　According to Sarah, Dorun, who develops magic stones, asked her to bring back this dust as a valuable resource.
　And when Sarah finished cleaning up the dust, she turned to face me and Riknas once again.
'It was you, Sarah, thank you so much. I didn't expect the reconstruction of the city walls to progress so quickly.
　Sarah was confronting Riknas as he said that, folding his arms.
''Well, it's not much of a task if you have a stone to cut out, I think we can finish repairing all the walls in a week.''
'What? I-is it a week?
'What? You want it to be faster? .........Then, if I carry the stone in the daytime.......
　At Riknas' words, Sarah begins to mumble and think about it.
　To such Sarah, Riknas shook his face from side to side in a great panic.
''No, it's not!　Reverse!　I was just surprised that I could do it so quickly.
Yeah, right.
　Sarah nodded with satisfaction when she heard Riknas' words.
Then I'm going to sleep through the night and I don't want to be disturbed.
　With that, he sat down in a nearby chair and began to sleep as he did so.
'Are you always like this, Sarah?'
Yeah, that's pretty much it.
　When I replied that, Riknas smiled and looked at Sarah with a smile.

◇ ◇ ◇.

　Sarah's work to rebuild the city walls progressed at a terrific pace night after night.
　It was so fast that the people of the city
Or God must be working on it in the middle of the night.
　They began to gossip about each other, and at night it became the custom of the city folk to bow in gratitude in the direction of the sound of construction and then go to bed.

　While such work was going on, a group of guards from Batcombe arrived in Urinacombe.
　The one who led them was the lord, Gelter.
　When Gelter found me and Riknas, he gave his usual carefree smile.
''I heard from Vibrina that you don't have enough guards. I've brought two of our guards with me, and I'm going to use them to make a patrol. Feel free to tell me if you're short. They are so busy these days, they are desperate for this kind of work.
　When Gelter said that, the guards nearby were
That's quite true, sir.
　He chuckled as he said this.
　Riknas stared at Gelter as he looked at him.
Are you sure? For doing this for me.
　He said.
　With those words, Gelter said.
Well, it's about your son-in-law's friend, of all people. As a parent, you have to show him a little of your good qualities, don't you?
　I smiled at that and smiled.
　Riknas heard that and turned to me.
You can thank your wife next time.
　That's what he said... Well, I couldn't help but think about how to clear up this misunderstanding.
