100 Chapter 99




 The black beast is much larger than Aldis and his friends, and it is trembling and cowering.
 In contrast to its ferocious appearance, the black beast exposes its too shameless appearance to Ardis and the others.

''Huh? What? Do you give up? Isn't it too soon?

"Ta, help me. ......

 It was enough to make Rona's fighting spirit strike out.

 A bewildered Rona diffused the magic power she had been concocting for her attack.

''What a bore. I thought I could fight with all my strength.''

'Hi! I'm sorry, I'm sorry!

 A black beast that desperately apologizes for Rona's unreasonable complaint.

 From the fact that you can't feel any other magic power in the surroundings, it was definitely this beast that prevented Rona's attack just now.
 However, the crucial beast doesn't seem to have any intention to fight at all.

 If you think about it, the other party was on the defensive against Rona's attack as well and did not counterattack us at all.
 I thought that if there was an existence that would cause harm to humans, then defeating them was inevitable, but with this, it's as if Aldis and the others were the aggressors.

''It's a terrible anticlimax.''

 At least the black beast doesn't seem to have any harmful intentions towards us.
 Moreover, they are opponents that can communicate with us verbally.
 Since we didn't originally come here with the purpose of defeating them, there's nothing better than avoiding a useless fight.

I'm not fighting, Rona. It would be more convenient if we could have a conversation.

What a bore!

'How boring would it be to fight someone who doesn't want to fight anyway?

That's true, but you know what?

 Taking his eyes away from Rona, who had a disgruntled face, Aldis shifted his gaze to the black beast that was shrinking and peeking at us.

 Receiving Aldis's gaze, Bikri and the other party squirmed.
 In its eyes, the size of its body and the color of fright disproportionate to the strength of its magical power can be seen.

 However--. And Ardis shot the question that came to mind at the black beast.

''You, aren't you perhaps Krol?''

'What? Krol?

 Rona was the first to react to Aldis' words.

 The black beast only shows an expression of surprise.
 Along with feelings of anxiety and fear, a faint glimmer of hope appears in her eyes.

'Krol is that Krol species? He has a powerful magic and a strong body, and his character is mild-mannered, yet brave and noble and highly intelligent. This is?

 Every time Rona's words were uttered for a moment, the uncomfortable-looking black beast shrank away.
 It received Rona's skeptical gaze, and at the same time, its expression grew darker with each step.

''You've never actually seen Krol?''

I've certainly heard of the black-haired four-legged: ......

 Rona looks at the black beast with zit eyes while answering Aldis' question.

'The way you talk, Al sounds like you've seen it before.

'I've only seen it from a distance myself, though. He looked just like that one.

'Heh ....... You don't look very strong.

'I'm sure Krol has his own personality. At least the Krol I saw seemed strong. One on one, but enough to make me wish I didn't have to deal with a pack.

Hmm. Well, that's okay. What are you going to do, now, dear?

'Yes. It's good to know who it is, but ....... Why is Krol here in the first place?

 Originally, Krol was a being from the world where Aldis and Rona lived.
 At least in this world, I've never heard of that race name in this world.

 If someone with such strong magical power has existed for a long time, it's enough to make people talk about it as a disaster-grade black monster.
 The fact that until a few months ago, this island was inhabited by the Yon-Mai-Spring suggests that Krol was probably a recent arrival.

 The question is, did he come by his own volition and how did he get here?

"Did you come here by yourself?

'What? Oh, um, ......, where is this place?

 When I asked with the slightest hope that I might get a hint of a return home, the answer I got was a misguided one.

...... differently.

 It's hard to believe that Krol, who doesn't even know where he is, has the means to return to his former world.

 Aldis shakes off his disappointment with only a moment's silence and tells Krol that this place is another world.
 When Krol hears this, a look of astonishment appears on his face, and now he begins to cry mesmerized.

 When Ardis listens to the disgusted Rona and listens patiently to her, Krol begins to talk about the situation when he came to this place

Not long ago, the Red Men arrived.

The Red Man?

'Yeah, so they chased me ....... Lupus ran off by himself. The next thing I knew, I was here.

 Aldis doesn't understand the story very well.

 The red humans would be a group of people wearing red clothing and armor.
 From a human's point of view, it's impossible to tell the differences between individual humans, just as all chlorals look the same to a human, from a chloral's point of view.

(The red-appearing gang, hey ......)

 The existence of a group of people with their entire bodies in red was not something Aldis could remember.
 At least, there would be no troops that correspond to the one Aldis has fought against.

 I check with Rona to be sure, but the answer comes back as expected: 'I don't know.

'Everyone in the pack will be gone. They'll be surrounded by unknown beasts. And I've never seen any fish before. Lupus is, lupus is .......

 I'm sure Lupus is his name.

 It is understandable that it is difficult to be sent off to a completely unknown world alone, but the sight of him curled up in a huge body and crying shakily is depressing.
 It's not tragic, but rather disgusting.

 I'm sure that if Lupus were to get serious, neither the "Four Feathers" nor the "Grinder" would be a match for him.
 I'm sure the only people who can beat Lupus in the vicinity of the capital are Aldis and his friends.
 Such a strong man is cowering while whining.

 It was a rather comical situation, but that doesn't mean we can simply end it with a laugh.

What do you want to do?

I want to go home to everyone at ....... I don't know how to get back to ...... but I don't know how to get home.

 Lupus' answer would be an obvious one.
 But if it's easy to do that, even Ardis won't have any trouble.
 He didn't come here of his own volition like Rona did, nor did he have the means to return to the other side at will.

"Rona," he said, "tell me the method you use. Can you show me the method you're using?

Well, you're a pain in the ass.

 If Rona was the only one with the means to do so, she could help him.
 But her own Rona doesn't seem to be keen on it.

But that doesn't mean I can't leave her alone.

 The reason why Aldis went to such lengths to put his shoulder to the wheel is because the situation in which Lupus was placed overlapped with his own situation.

 I don't know why, and before I knew it I was sent to an unknown world, and I don't know how to get back to my hometown.
 There is no one you know, and naturally there is no one you can rely on.
 It would be a lie to say that I wasn't thin-skinned, no matter how much I was Aldis.

 The first otherworldly person Ardis met, who did not know what was left or right, was Ted and the other members of the Byakuya no Meisei.
 If it wasn't for their kindness and care, he would have been forced to suffer more hardship.
 It's too shameful to enjoy the kindness of others while ignoring others in the same situation.

Please.

...... I don't have a choice. When I return to King's Landing, make sure I have plenty of good food for me.

 To Ardis, who was unusually bad at it, Rona nodded conditionally, though grudgingly (fuzzy).

 But as expected, or should I say, Rona's transference technique--although it is possible that Lupus was too frightened to proceed--was an unintelligible explanation no matter how many times he heard it.

 Even after I finished explaining it all in one go, the hatchet marks just flew over Lupus' head.
 In the end, Rona's transference technique was not even understood--.

''I wonder what's going on here.

 Ardis's voice is vain as she puts her index finger to her forehead and murmurs, "Do you want to kill him for the trouble?

"It's too much trouble, let's just kill it.

Hi!

 Rona started to say something boisterous as if it was a good idea, and Lupus instantly retreated.

It's not a good idea. I'm sure you'll be able to find out who you are, because the request is for an investigation. But if that happens--

 The question is what to do with the investigation report.

 If a poor report was given, Lupus could be considered a risk factor and a strike force could be formed.

 Then, what would happen if a strike force was actually dispatched?
 Although the Lupus looks extremely timid, it has high potential because it is a Krol species.
 If he fights properly, he'll be a soldier in his armor.

 The question is whether or not Lupus has the will to fight.
 I'm not sure that he has the character to dispel the sparks of fire that would befall him from what I saw earlier.

 I'm not going to be able to get a good deal more than just a good deal more than that.
 I'm not sure how to bring him back to the world.

 I thought about taking them back to their home in the forest, but the twins are there.
 It's hard to imagine that this cowardly character would cause them any harm, but there is no chance that this is actually just catnip for them.

 Even if you don't consider the danger, there is no place to put this huge body in that house.
 The garden is also quite large, but it is indeed too small for a creature seven meters long to live in.

 In the first place, this character would be likely to stay inside the building.
 The idea of one of the bedrooms being covered in black fur, Aldis dismissed the idea in his mind.

'So we need to live in this place and not be seen as a danger to the country, and not have a strike force sent in to destroy it, huh?

'Why don't you just tell him that he can talk to you normally?'

That's the thing: ......

 There will be those who will think of using Lupus in a bad way (yada yada).

 Lupus's character is not suited for negotiations.
 If his power and character are known to others, he could be used for his own good.
 If it is done poorly, the thing of being threatened is quite possible regardless of the difference in power between a person and a person.

Usually there is no danger, but if you mess with it unnecessarily, you will receive a painful blowback. It would be good to let the country have the recognition of "There is usually no danger, but if you mess with it unnecessarily, you will get a painful blowback.

Humans are such a bother. Then, Al, is it okay if I kill them?

Hiiiiii!

 Rona, who didn't seem to be interested in what Aldis had to say, opened her mouth to tease Lupus, just for the sake of it.

'Don't play, Rona.

No, it's just so interesting.

 Rona may be saying this lightly, but Lupus has been frightened all the time from earlier.
 He was trying to hide behind Aldis's back as if he was running away from a golden beast that was much smaller than him.

 Naturally, there was no way Krol's huge body could hide in Aldis's body, and the only thing escaping from Rona's eyes was her face.

''Huh, I wonder what's going on here.

 Aldis didn't even try to hide a sigh at the unexpected problem.
