Absolutely Do Not Touch Eldmia Egga - Chapter 345
It did not occur to me that I had to make an ardent defense and defense of Asillie.
“Chief. In the first place, the Humans are those who bloom and repeat defeats for less than a hundred years, so wouldn’t it be more appropriate to look at these Humans instead of looking at their age?”
“Umm, but if my last memory is correct, no matter how human, the coming-of-age ceremony…” “It’s
likely that it was a means to let people know the urgency of the job…” ”
Forest spirits find it difficult to convey the content of long sentences. Effectively I think I won.”
It was because the elves who were worried like Celebian with serious faces defended Asillie on their own.
It’s not like I’m looking at something with colored glasses, but rather looking at other races. I couldn’t participate in the passionate conversation with a very open perspective, so I was silent for a while.
“I’m really sorry about this. Unlike Asilie, I’ve spent my whole life by the side of my tribe. As a result, I often have closed thoughts without even realizing it. I’m definitely Asilie’s benefactor, but again, my thoughts are skewed to one side.”
‘I think that’s a normal reaction.’ I couldn’t say that, so I smiled and accepted his apology.
“It’s okay. It can be enough.”
I am 30 years old and it feels close to dating Asillie, but from the standpoint of others, I have no choice but to look completely different. It’s even more unfamiliar and amazing to see him trying to accept it without prejudice.
Still, seeing as he muttered, ‘It wasn’t because Asilie was short-tempered or didn’t have an eye for people…’ and tried hard to convince herself, it must have been a situation that everyone could sympathize with, even from the elves’ point of view.
“Anyway, it was fortunate that there were many forests still awake in the Western Kingdom.
I didn’t know what Celebian’s words meant to lightly change the topic, but I could make a guess. You mean moving through the forest. I was in a position where there would be no benefit to holding on to the subject of ‘Acillie Pedophilia Suspicion’ for a long time, so I asked the subject.
“I experienced it once through Asillie. You moved through the forest, right?”
“That’s right. It may be rude to you who have worked hard, but it was fortunate that we fell from the west. This place is close to the Fire Dragon’s territory, so the effects of winter come very late.”
Even the method of movement that seemed convenient in the world seemed to have other restrictions besides the fact that the forest had to be connected to some extent. Celebian showed a non-trivial attitude and continued his explanation.
“If you move a little further east from here, there’s enough forest to go back to the World Tree. Once you go back to the tribe through it, you should be able to get as close as possible to Isthel.”
If forests are connected, you can move. If the world tree and the forest are connected, you can move from the forest to the world tree. Celebian smiled a little, as if it was obvious on the outside, while he was only admiring it because it was such a dog breed trait.
“It is true that the powers granted by the spirits of the World Tree and Forest are very useful, but they are not as omnipotent as you think.
“Hmm, that’s right. Even though it’s my first time meeting you, I’m grateful that you not only treat me kindly but also help me.”
“Ah. I’m telling you in advance, but even if you pass by for a moment, not all of the tribe members will be friendly to you. I want to tell you in advance that this environment has a reason for my efforts to see the world without prejudice.”
‘Not everyone in the world will like you.’ It wasn’t like a child’s educational comment, but that there would be some elves who didn’t look at me kindly.
what can it be Humans also have misogyny, but there’s no law saying that elves shouldn’t have goblins or goblins.
“You don’t have to worry. I don’t mind at all.”
“Umm… If you experience it yourself, it might be different again, but I’m glad you said that.”
I’m worried about selling. I’m really fine.
If something unpleasant happens to them, it will be them who are not okay.
◈
Celebian, who had spent a hectic few days because of Asilie, who suddenly contacted her, smiled inwardly as she looked at Eldmia, who was very polite and calm, unlike the first meeting, which seemed a little light.
Asilie was the heroine who boasted that she would never present an earring like that for the rest of her life. He was a good colleague, but because of his generosity and ferocious personality, I half teased him about who the hell would take that.
It wasn’t without corners, but she was a proud member of the tribe who got along well with everyone, so when the decision was made at the tribal council to stop the search for her, many were outraged, asking if the noble sacrifice would end in slavery.
However, the fact that he was able to survive with such a strange relationship before suffering a major disaster is a level where he can bet that Asha was with him.
“Ah, is there anything I should be aware of while traveling?”
Most fortunate of all, the more I talked to Eldmia and saw the actions he took, the more the unsavory misunderstanding I felt at first faded away. I often forgot that he was a 15-year-old, even though it only took a few hours for me to meet him and for the night to fall completely.
Excluding external factors, this was the case. Looking at the young human who was easier to talk to than most humans, Celebian felt like he could understand Asilier’s choice just a little bit.
“There’s nothing in particular. But since the people of the Western Kingdom don’t react very favorably to the different races, there’s a possibility that they’ll experience something unpleasant because of us.”
It was not safe because there were seven of them, but because they were united, it was closer to reflecting hostility.
Perhaps it was because of the orcs who were invading the territory at any time.
Eldmia just shrugged her shoulders at Celebian’s advice and said it didn’t matter.
“It’s okay because it’s the same for me. It’s possible for each other to experience unpleasant things because of each other, so we can just ignore it and move on.”
Was it a consideration to ease the atmosphere and lighten the burden? If so, it was a very pleasant joke, so Celebian and the other elves laughed without saying who said first. Did humans say that they are gentlemen at times like this? Due to the gentle atmosphere that followed, Celebian completely forgot his first impression of Eldmia.
After welcoming the next day, they moved slowly according to their walking pace, and talked steadily until they arrived at the threshold of the human city in two days. I began to think in the direction of whether or not I had chosen a human named Eldmia as my future husband.
“You’re fine, but the dwarfs aren’t.”
okay. Until you reach the threshold of the city.
The attitude of the gatekeeper proudly refusing to show the card proving his identity, and the ridicule of those who waited to enter the city, but Celebians and other elves did not care.
Those who lead a precarious life without realizing that they are protected by God will inevitably be anxious, and sometimes shed reckless hostility to dilute their anxiety.
That kind of attitude was the least favorable in the West. To the extent that a few fairy tales would suffice.
“why?”
However, Eldmia tilted her head to the side and asked if she didn’t think so. The gatekeeper answered with an expression of displeasure while the elves twitched their ears and expressed their doubts at the reaction, which was clearly different from the courteous appearance he had shown so far.
“Why, why? Do you know what those gnomes will do in the city?”
“That’s something to look out for after you check it properly and send it into the city. I’d understand if they didn’t have any certificates right now, but that’s not it, right? If there’s any trouble, it’s up to me and the Margrave of Kelvast to deal with it, if you neglect your duty. Isn’t that a valid reason for that?”
Heh, that was a pretty valid argument. However, it was difficult to see that such words would work for those who were closer to violence than law and logic.
In fact, the gatekeeper’s expression crumpled even more after hearing his words. He turned over the spear he was holding, tapped Eldmia’s chest with the spear, chewed it, and continued talking as if spitting it out.
“Huh, fuck. An adventurer bastard who didn’t learn from somewhere is trying to teach the gatekeeper? I don’t think you have a Kelvast certification plaque, but that doesn’t mean you won’t go to jail, you bastard. For a week, together with the rat bastards. Do you want to come out after being locked up?”
“It’s fun.”
fun? this?
Celebian, who checked Eldmia’s face for a moment, wondering if he had heard it wrong, felt a strong sense of uneasiness at the ferocious smile hanging on his lips. It was such a menacing smile that even the gatekeeper, who confidently wielded the spearhead with public power on his back, flinched slightly.
However, Eldmia didn’t pay attention to the reaction of those around her and the spear hitting her chest, she just kept smiling and asked back.
“Do you know any laws?”
It didn’t take long for Celebian to figure out what the question meant.
