795 Brave Things (Bottom)

After a period of rest, no significant changes were made in Brave's full days, even after his work as a hunter resumed.

So far, Ai-Fa and Brave have been able to live their days without major hand injuries. If there were another hound - the desire only intensified with each chase of the day, but the people by the woods also seemed to have the desire to buy further hounds, so there was nothing else to expect there.

It was only a few days after the end of the rest period that an astonishing change came there.

As I roamed the woods with Ey-Fa, it sounded like a long thunder from nowhere.

And at the same time Brave had perceived signs of anomaly.

A terrible pulse came from the back of my leg.

It was as if a sleeping giant beneath the ground was about to wander.

"This is a gibberish. Something's going on."

Crushed with a sharp voice, Ai-Fa has succumbed to Brave.

"I wonder what we should do. Should I dive on a tree?"

Even though the earth is about to dwell, climbing on trees only adds to the danger.

Brave diligently set out to stare back into Ai-Fa's eyes.

"Right. It is also harder to escape when it is difficult on a tree. Anyway, Brave, just keep an eye out for signs of Gibba."

Gibba looked like he was running around everywhere, but there were no individuals approaching the perilous range.

I guess Gibba is sensing the same anomaly and making a roar that she doesn't usually emit. It was as if he were begging for mercy from the giants beneath the earth.

And - the earth rocked.

When I first wonder how shocked the shock came, the world sounds without getting my hair in between.

Ai-Fa held Brave's neck and said, "Let's go earthquake......!" He raised an urgent voice.

"This place is far from the rocks and rivers, so there is no imminent danger. Brave, you concentrate on Giva."

At that time, I felt one of the raging madness of Gibbs approaching us much closer.

The sour scent of Gibba, who lost me, approached me. It must be a coincidence that we're coming this way, but it didn't make a difference to the danger.

Brave lets her gaze in the approaching direction of Gibba as she goes low.

On the rocking earth, Ai-Fa glanced sharply.

"All right. You stay down here. It's not an inconvenient place to wave a sword."

Ai-Fa stayed on his knees and pulled out the knife.

And then it moves away to a position where that knife can't reach Brave.

Gibba was already on the brink of sight.

Brave growls with his full strength.

As he echoed it, Gibba roared when the thunder rang.

This should have conveyed the exact direction of Giva, too, to Ai-Fa.

Ai-Fa, who was about to travel to the shade of the tree, stopped moving there and turned back towards Brave.

Stepping over the bush, Gibba emerges.

The tip of his nose was pointed at Brave.

It is an outfit that is pointing to the right side of the body to Ai-Fa.

Ey-Fa, who was kneeling, kicked the ground with one leg.

The tip of a knife protruding straight out dimensions Giva's throat.

Brave managed to get around Gibba's giant, who was pushing on with the momentum as it was.

Gibba plunges from her head into the trunk of the great tree and stops moving. Even in this situation, it seemed that Ai-Fa's sword slapped and slashed Giva's throat whistle precisely.

After a while, the sound of the earth just went away.

Gibba's faraway chirping, which was heard from all over, is also always quiet.

After confirming that, Ai-Fa stood up refreshed.

"We're going home, Brave. With so much ground tremor, Fa's house could be in danger."

Apparently, this giva is dedicated to the meat-eating Mundt. But if my husband, Ai-Fa, had so decided, there was no difference in Brave either.

Run through the woods with Ai-Fa and go for Fa's house. We had stepped into a pretty deep place, so that required the time and effort to do so.

Still, fortunately, I was able to get through the woods without encountering any new giva.

Running down a road cut open by the woods and stepping into a place where Fa's house would tumble - first of all, I could see Asta, Zilbe and Tia.

"Asta!," says Ey-Fa, a screaming voice.

That's how Ai-Fa hugged Asta, who looked back with a surprised look.

"You're safe, Asta. I've been watching you since I got back here."

"Yeah. I'm glad Ai-Fa's okay, too."

Asta was beside herself, turning her hand around Ai-Fa's back.

In the meantime, Zilbe approaches Brave. In those large eyes, the colors of relief and fear were intricately swirling.

(Right. You were in the house.)

Fa's house had collapsed.

If Zilbe had misjudged him, it would have been where he was laid. It is also natural to remember fear. Brave also decided to lay his own face on its flat face and give him a big disciple of his body.

After that, there was a scene where Tia dived into the collapsed house and was scolded by the Ai-Fas, but all of the family were safe. The story is that Gill of Totos can also be brought to someone just now.

(But... Fa's house, it's crumbled)

The second home for Brave, the place to go, is gone.

Brave has become the family of Fa's house and has already toured the moon about three times. It was Fa's house, packed with memories of those days, that collapsed unbroken.

Brave's chest was filled with unspeakable grief. Brave didn't imagine such a fate would come.

Then Ai-Fa, who was pulling out the rubble and pulling out the household fortune, approached him with a candle face.

"What's going on, Brave? I don't have such sad eyes."

Then Asta, who was putting together the household belongings that had been pulled out, also approached.

"The dog goes to people, the cat goes to the house, but I guess I'm sad the house is gone. Maybe he's worried about where we're going to spend the night."

"Until we rebuilt the house, Fowe's house offered to give us a bedroom. You don't have to worry about anything, Brave."

That being said, Ai-Fa caressed Brave's neck muscles gently.

What Fowe's humans were saying that way, Brave was also listening by his side. Still, Brave couldn't help but spare the lost house of Fa.

But the deep sentiment of love felt from the palm of Ey-Fa's hand revitalized Brave.

"We will definitely have Fa's house built again in this place. There is nothing to guide you through, because all your families were safe. We're in a new house, and we're going to carve out a new time."

The eyes of Ey-Fa, speaking as such, were lit with a more gentle light than usual.

It was Ai-Fa who spent time in this house from birth. That chest should have been filled with more grief than Brave.

Still, Ai-Fa has never sinked into his grief, and he's caring for Brave. Brave let those smooth cheeks peel as he shook his chest to the toughness and depth of emotion of Ey-Fa.

◇

Then it took about five days for a new fa's house to be built.

I wasn't sure about Brave, but as far as listening to the conversations between the Ai-Fa's, it seemed surprisingly quick. The familiar Jagal men for Brave came together to complete the new home.

(There are so many southern people in the western kingdom, too)

Either way, Fa's house came back to life.

Basically the appearance remains the same but seems to have gotten a lot bigger. The Braves' relaxing soil space also seemed more spacious than before.

In this house, the Braves build up new memories.

Thinking of it that way, warm emotions spread through my chest. Girl of Totos could not even read the inside, but I - Fa, Asta and Zilbe both seemed very happy.

Thus, it is a few days later.

This time of year was filled with so much fluctuations that it didn't take long for Brave to breathe.

Only a few days after Fa's house was rebuilt, a new hound was finally greeted by Fa's family.

The new hound was named Durmoor.

It was Ai-Fa who named it, meaning 'malaria arrows'.

Worthy of its name, Durmore was a very fast legged hound.

He was a more agile hound than Brave, both in the flat and in the woods. For Brave, no compatriot has been more comfortable.

He is a lot thinner than Brave, and his body hair is still black and tea.

I took it a little bit. I had a personality and it felt like Zilbe and others needed some time to get used to it. Whether it was the environment of the ranch where he was born and raised, or merely individual differences, Durmua had a temper somewhat approximate to his body as well.

but it wasn't enough for Brave to lead the way.

After a few days, Durmoor was completely fascinated by the eye-fa and the corners were lightly removed.

If you realize it, you and Zilbe will not have to give in, and as a brave, it is a relief. It was Fa's home lesson not just to work together, but to share joy and suffering correctly.

So in terms of work, it was impeccable from the start.

The time when Durmua was invited by her family was not half a month after the beginning of the rest period, and the number of givahs was still low, but Brave was nevertheless able to get a definite feel. If I were an eye-fa, I wouldn't have been indifferent to dealing with two hounds, and that's how two hounds got around to completing their ideal hunting practices.

The most important thing for hounds working by the woods was still their acumen in exploring the signs and the speed of their feet.

Dulmua had both of them together properly. It seems to be a different ranch birth than Brave, but he would have been trained right. I will not be frightened by the ferocious Gibba, nor will I doubt the judgment of my master, Ai-Fa. Now the giva hunting job should have been a stone in the future.

(Until this strength runs out, I can work as a hound in Fa's house. Raw so proud, there is no other)

Brave could be wholeheartedly satisfied.

Both Ai-Fa and Durmour should have thought the same way.

However, there was also such a thing as misery in the human world in man.

As for you, I'm not talking about how powerful the Braves are. When the Ai-Fas were afflicted with their misery as human beings, etc., they were to bite off their thoughts.

For example, when Fa's house was raided by something called the Bandits.

Even that day Brave and Durmoor, along with Ai-Fa, were encouraging the hunt for Giva. There, by the sound of a whistle blown out of chaos, he was informed of the emergency.

I rushed back to the house and there was no sign of Asta and Zilbe was in a coma.

According to the story of the woodland women, Zilbe was hurt by something called a poisonous weapon.

It was so angry at Ey-Fa at that time that he couldn't even see it.

They hurt Zilbe, a family member, and Asta is being chased by strangers again. It was as if the life force pulsating within the Ai-Fa would become flames themselves and blow away.

Let it burn down in its flames, and the sinners shall be captured.

Brave also contributes to the work this day. It was Brave who led Ai-Fa to Asta, avoiding the scent of strangers lurking on the edge of the forest.

Fortunately, Asta didn't bear one wound.

Instead, Gill of Totos had been offended by the same poison as Gilbe, and Tia had borne so deep that her life was in danger.

However, Zilbe and Gilru were able to regain their energy within the day.

What was at stake is still tier. Tia was treated by Shmiral, while leaving the border between life and death for a while.

Meanwhile, Ai-Fa and Asta were off work and accompanied by Tia the whole time.

The Braves have nothing to do with it. I just secretly pray for Tier's recovery in the earth. Tia was considered incapable of being a friend or a compatriot, but if the Ai-Fas wanted her recovery, the Braves just followed suit.

As such, Ai-Fa and Asta were often subjected to something called the unique misery of man.

Most likely, "easy" was more than "bitter". Once in a while, a feast was held in the woods, and each time, Asta and the others looked very happy.

The hounds will spend all the time in the earth while the feast's taking place. The place was roughly a Luu or Fou settlement, so it was one of the few pleasures for the Braves to be able to face-to-face with the hounds of other houses each time.

But even in those moments, the Ai-Fas always came to see how the Braves were doing once or twice. He seems to have noticed a lot about the Braves who are unable to attend the feast.

But sticky, I wasn't dissatisfied with the Braves' side. More or less those days were supposed to be off or cut up early for giva hunting, so we could see how the humans were in a hurry until about evening. Just breathing in that kind of enthusiasm makes me somewhat of a floating comforter, and after sundown, I see a sleeper, so I don't have the slightest desire to attend a feast. More than that, I was just glad that the Ai-Fas were in a happy comfort.

As a lord, there was a great float on the human side, and the days of the Braves passed peacefully.

Among other things, the most disturbing thing here these days was the "diplomat of the king's capital". As for the human being, he was named again and again between Ai-Fa and Asta.

Brave, too, has seen that human thing several times.

But Brave had no interest whatsoever.

I never felt any special signs from that person, and the fact that the other person had no interest in the Braves was a hint. For that human being named Fermes, I guess a dog is equal to trees and stone places.

(No... maybe even humans are equal to trees and stone places for this Fermes?

The only thing Brave cared about was that point.

Fermes is always surrounded by a large number of human beings, who seem to exchange words without talent, but without any reason, they do not seem to have crossed their minds with anyone.

If you see, for example, people talking to trees and stone places, you might feel the same way.

It must not have been felt to be an opposite presence to the Ey-Fa, which could bring the mind through, speaking to the unspoken Braves.

(Well, they don't matter to me. I guess the problem is that for the i-fa's, he doesn't care)

Brave didn't understand one thing, but it seemed that the people by the woods had to bond correctly with that man named Fermes.

(I'm sure that's a harder story than going through your mind with a dog or tototoss. They only think of this one as a tree or a stone)

But if it is Asta or the Ey-fa, they will be able to overcome any ordeal.

As for Brave, I could only believe it and hope that the right end would come shady.

That's how the days moved - Brave was set to celebrate something called a second harvest festival.

A harvest festival is a feast for the people of the woods to offer their thanks to Mother Forest. From the day after this feast, the hunters celebrated a period of rest.

At this stage, the moon had circled about eight times since Brave became Fa's family.

Since Durmoor became a family, would it be about five times? This was the first harvest festival, as Durmua came to the woods as soon as the last period of rest had dawned.

Asta went out to the settlement of Fou in the morning, and Girl and Tia accompanied him to it, so that only Ai-Fa and three dogs remained in Fa's house.

It seems that Ai-Fa will also have to follow soon, but before that, he only did his job of collecting firewood and vanilla, and now he was encouraging the salary scale.

The side of it feels more serious than usual.

I'm guessing you're thinking of something else because you shouldn't need that much seriousness for the job of payroll.

Zilbe and Durmua were interested in the chase a little further away, so only Brave noticed that look on Ai-Fa's face.

Somehow, it's a curious look.

Thus, as Ey-Fa laid down his scabbard and began to sprinkle the broken firewood with the grass, Brave decided to try his nose tip.

"Hmm? What's going on, it's Brave?

…………

"Right. I've been thinking about the power comparison of hunters, so maybe I've lost my temper."

Ai-Fa tied the cranberries together all the time before smiling at Brave.

"Don't guide me. At the harvest festival, there will be a comparison of forces, so I was just worried. The hunters of the nearby clan seem to be trying to keep up with the day."

…………

"Mm-hmm. Of course, a comparison of hunter power is not something to lose and be ashamed of. If only we could show Mother Forest and her brethren without any help. Winning or losing is what awaits us, so sticking to winning is never the right thing to do."

…………

"Still, I hope to win strong. I was disciplining myself so that it wouldn't get shallow and stubborn."

With that said, Ai-Fa lowered her hips while also hitting the wall of the house.

Brave waves his short tail, letting him refrain instead.

"I was originally a loser. When I lost to Dan-Lutim, and when I hurt Giza-Lou, I got a lot of nagging to do. Until then, I suppose, only my father Gil and I were able to compare forces, so the one about right feelings for power comparison is still immature."

…………

"Besides, I... wish to be the person Asta deserves. Perhaps that thought creates an obsession to win."

Ey-Fa's voice was calm, but his expression was a lot unreliable.

It is the expression of a toddler, very rarely shown by Ai-Fa.

"If others heard such a story, what would they laugh at as stupid? But I live as a hunter until I bind Asta's heart strong. No... it's not just Asta, I'm walking down this road until I tie my heart. Is that why I want to be strong as a hunter... is it something, after all, a mysterious story"

…………

"I'm a hunter. My pride as a hunter supports me in this. By living as a hunter, I am able to live a full and happy life. But I..."

And, when Ey-Fa held Brave's neck in his lid, he whispered a hissing voice.

Then I pulled myself back, Ai-Fa, with the expression my elderly daughter deserved, dyed her cheeks slightly.

"- So until then, I hope to live without remorse as a hunter. So this is how you wish to win strong."

…………

"Well, if my desire to win is shallow and stubborn, Mother Forest won't miss it either. Let me discipline myself and squeeze all my strength."

Ai-Fa stood up and grabbed a bunch of firewood that was crushed by the crawling grass.

"Then it's time to head to Fou's settlement. After that, we have to pick up the guests to the lodging town."

Ai-Fa had already regained his usual strength.

Just those blue eyes with a soft glowing finish. That was nothing more than a deep sense of love for Asta.

(I have nothing to show you. I/Fa just have to live as I/Fa want)

For Brave, Ai-Fa is the master of his life.

If the day is coming for Ai-Fa to retreat from the hunter's work, he will help the other hunters in their work on the orders of Ai-Fa. Still, it didn't make any difference that I-Fa was Brave's master.

(If Ai-Fa had a child, would I be able to work as a hound until the child was raised? Well...... if I was getting old, along with Ai-Fa and Asta, there's nothing else left to watch that child grow up)

Brave was remembering the old dogs who broke up at a place called Castle Town in Genos.

It may not be surprisingly bad to retreat from your hounding job and be at peace. Brave, for the first time, was to think so.

But Brave is still young.

Until this power runs out, let me work as a hound.

With I-Fa, you shouldn't be so easily retreating from your job as a hunter. A year later, five years later, ten years later - or even if that was six months later or six months later, it doesn't change what Brave should do. Brave only did his full role as Fa's family.

Thinking that way, Brave decided to bark "bauuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
