Absolutely Do Not Touch Eldmia Egga - Chapter 4

The first day with Asilie passed and the morning dawned.

I visited the village Asilie mentioned in order to complete the tomb of my parents and dispose of the thieves’ items. As the vigilantes settled down and started guarding, as she said, it seemed like they were slowly establishing themselves as a small city, so there was no problem getting in, even though Asilie was wearing a hood to cover her ears.

The thieves’ belongings were unattractive, but the horses sold for about one and a half gold coins apiece. According to Asilie, even that was because the horse was not properly managed, so it must be that the horse is precious.

Surprisingly, the best price was not the thief’s horse, but the other guy’s horse. Was it a guy named Glenn? There was a white spot between the eyes of the horse, which was memorable, and they said it was the best and most well-maintained horse.

As much as we need horses, we decided not to sell him and raise him. After disposing of all of them, we finally got 7 gold coins, 16 silver coins and 18 copper coins from the Kingdom of Ethiel. I was a little shocked to find out for the first time in 8 years that the currency issued by the country, the currency issued by a large-scale trading association, etc., are divided into quite troublesome parts.

“It’s rare that the top currency is in the hands of ordinary people. The same goes for the currency of other kingdoms.”

I heard that the top currency is only gold coins. It seems to be a kind of checkbook. Thanks to the high gold content and large size, it was considered almost twice the value of other gold coins. Most of the other kingdoms are similar, but the currency of Ragnel Kingdom is the lowest value, so it was advised to avoid it if possible.

“One silver coin is about the cost of food for an average adult for a week.

It would have been nice if it had been structured like 10 silver coins and 1 gold coin, but 40 copper coins equal 1 silver coin, and it is said that 30 silver coins make one gold coin. It was cumbersome, but it wasn’t that I couldn’t understand it in the end. As soon as I understood and answered her question, Asilier smiled.

“Maybe it’s because your parents are adventurers, so they must have taught you arithmetic well. They’re even quite good at mental arithmetic. Thankfully.”

I can’t say that I went to university, so I just answered with a smile.

When I entered the economics class of Asillie, which became blood and flesh, and bought necessary items, 10 silver coins disappeared in an instant. Of course, I carefully selected and bought what I needed, but it was an eye-opening consumption for ordinary people.

Even if the house was in good shape, it was mainly because of the disappearance of quite a few things that could be solved by bartering in the village. In addition to trinkets, the little wagon carried some domestic animals, such as a pair of chickens and a pair of goats.

It dawned on me that I would spend the next 8 years with her. And thanked her again for making that decision.

“Thank you very much.”

Asilie, who was covering her face with a hood, answered with a faint smile instead of asking again.

“I’m more grateful.”

Asilie…she’s a god…!

When I returned from my first outing, the day had already passed. After all, it was only the next day that we were able to start preparing for the winter and other household chores in earnest the next day.

Because I decided not to use physical enhancement for a while, the only thing I could help with was that I couldn’t get past the limit of an 8-year-old, but as a child of a hunter, I could do anything to drain the blood and dismantle the hides of the animals she caught.

There the first prejudice was broken. Elves in this world eat meat!

No, rather, it was not to the extent of eating, but to the level of stock. When I asked because it was a culture shock, I could see Asilie laughing while holding her stomach to the point where she wondered if she could laugh like that.

“It seems that a strange prejudice that came from somewhere has entered the knowledge you have taken. Everything in the world is supposed to work in balance in the end. Protecting the forest is the same as keeping the balance of animals and plants.”

Hunt only as much as necessary. That’s all, Asilie said.

“We are always wary of excessive greed.”

“Uh… is that why you’re not on good terms with the dwarves?”

Judging from her words alone, it seemed that she couldn’t seem to get along well with the dwarves who were digging up fine tunnels for jewelry and metalwork, so when I asked, Asili couldn’t give a definite answer.

“Well, I don’t think they’re on bad terms. They’re a race that’s obsessed with creating better things, so their obsession often makes them feel uncomfortable. After all, it seems like their behavior is hateful. Should I say that all these actions were a reasonable process when I put out the results?”

Assilie continued to speak as she effortlessly peeled off the skin of the deer she had run out from early in the morning and took for granted.

“They never waste resources. Just as we use the animals we hunt for a living, they use the minerals and gems they can find efficiently. In terms of the process they take to make weapons and accessories, the Elves It’s excessive consumption by standards, but it’s only from the point of view of elves, and it’s an indispensable factor in their life, so there’s actually no problem.

“You are very outspoken in pointing out the prejudice of your own people, sister.”

“Whoops. Right intelligence is built on the basis of right criticism. More than that, it looks like you need to correct your biased knowledge about the species. Before going to bed at night, I’ll tell you a story.”

I couldn’t bear to say that the knowledge of the race I was taking was based on a fantasy novel from an Earth that didn’t even exist, so I replied with a childish smile.

If you can create something that doesn’t exist, it’s fucking amazing. Maybe he was a real visitor to another world.

Even while I was slaughtering the deer with nonsensical imaginations, Asilie constantly informed me of this and that. There was some simple knowledge related to hunting right away, but most of it was about worldly affairs. Judging from the fact that the content is interesting and arousing curiosity, it seemed to be an effort to not be bored, conscious of my young age.

The stories that I would have listened to eagerly even without it continued into the night without a chance to get bored.

“Eldmia. How do you want to live with the things you’ve learned from me?”

Asilie asked while washing the dishes after a hearty dinner.

“You’re definitely different from other kids. Most of all, the biggest thing is that you can’t stop killing people at that age. I wondered if you were sick in your heart because you died in this accident, but you’re actually better at controlling your emotions than most adults.”

I wanted to say that it was natural because it was perfectly normal, but an abnormal guy said he was normal, so I just kept my mouth shut and looked into her eyes, waiting for her to continue. I vaguely understood what she wanted to say.

“But rather, that’s why I have no choice but to ask. Do you want revenge?”

“Until I get my revenge, will the commander of the Demon Lord Army who wiped out our village survive?”

At my question, which jumped out without hesitation, Asilie widened her eyes. This time it was my turn to speak.

“I am really confident that I will learn everything diligently. Not only if I compare myself with my peers, but also with those five years older than me. Unless they are geniuses, will I understand and learn more quickly?”

It is natural. There are things that we know in advance, our thoughts are different, and the motivation for making efforts is different.

“Still, I don’t think I’ll be able to catch the commander of the demon army even if I learn enough from my sister and become 16 years old.

But I’m not a genius. It’s just that the mental age is different from others. Not special.

“If I keep trying, I think I’ll do my part at 20, but if he’s still alive then, of course, I’ll have to get revenge. But that’s not emotional revenge.”

It’s not something an 8-year-old would say. If a kid says something like this right in front of my eyes, I won’t listen to it seriously, and I’ll just listen with one ear. But Ashley was different.

“then?”

He still waited for my answer with calm and calm eyes. It’s only been two days since we’ve known each other, but it was an eye that made trust come naturally.

“I don’t want to go through this situation again. I don’t want to go through the irrationality of being deprived of everything when I haven’t done anything wrong or committed a crime.”

So you will be strong. therefore will survive.

“I will find him and kill him when he is still alive and within my power. And I will leave his blood for all to see.”

In the dark night, relying on a single light orb that Asilie summoned, I made a statement while looking into each other’s eyes.

“Never again, no matter what. Never touch Eldmia Egga.”

Asilie’s eyes wavered.

“So, to warn everyone, I will avenge, survive, and become strong.”

for me. And for those who may come into contact with me in the future.

I’ll be strong as hell
