341 Please, Grandpa.

Revaria landed in the moss square a little reluctantly as to whether her first encounter with Mr. Ashel was having sequelae. That said, Leveria has really changed how well you delivered me.

Thank you and I'll stroke you again and again.

Levaria never greets Old Sleighsta and Mr. Ashel, but she snorts and falls asleep.

Old Sleighsta and Mr. Ashel greeted me with no apparent concern for such Levaria.

"Evening."

"What a rarity for a time like this"

"That's noisy. If you don't need me, welcome home."

"No, no, I'm here because I have business."

"That's annoying."

"I don't think that would bother Mr. Ashel..."

"That's annoying to me."

"Ugh..."

That's right. The only thing I'm going to ask you to do is annoy old Sleighsta. But for the people, what it takes to get through this winter. So get ready and move on.

"Actually."

and wait for Old Sleighsta's answer by communicating the current situation and requests of Wang Capital, which Mr. Rudriad had just heard.

To be honest, I think cutting down the dragon forest trees is an inconvenient favor. So I wonder if fate will, after all, be a forest spread at the foot of Dragon Peak. I have to talk to the Warcraft.

"People's demands are understandable. Those are vulnerable and vulnerable to the cold. You'll need a fire to keep you warm."

Old Sleighsta also understands people's problems. But that and logging the dragon forest is a different matter, right?

"Dear Left, my role is to protect the Dragon Forest. Whoever hurts the forest, no matter how many."

Old Sleighsta stares down at me from a high position. I look up to old Sleighsta with serious eyes, too, and listen.

"My position is unchanged. Would you understand that?

"Yes, I know exactly"

The truth is, it's a case that you don't even need to discuss, right? Old Sleighsta's answer was clear. But as the same people, I also know how hard it is for the residents of the King's capital.

But the idea of felling the forest trees at the foot of Dragon Peak, another proposal, is also hopeless if we cannot get the help of the Warcraft. There were some anxiety elements like that, so I talked to Old Sleighsta at no cost.

No. I didn't talk to you. I cried. Old Sleighsta would do something about it, and I got a slight hope. I am.

"Hmm. Thou hast been able to do many things alone these days. I don't think we've seen each other since we met."

Old Sleighsta looked down on me with her golden eyes.

"But don't make a mistake. You are a people and you are weak. You can't solve everything. Don't try to carry everything you see."

"Yes."

I am proud to have dived through numerous training grounds from the autumn entrance to the beginning of winter. I then recall that Old Sleighsta kept telling me so many times when a series of disturbances settled down.

I'm not the center of the world. [M] The world isn't revolving around me. There are many immeasurable people in this world who can't even be beans like me. Even the old Sleighsta saw horrible people with no hands or feet.

And old Sleighsta was still trying to correct my thoughts.

Because I was consulted. I was told I was the only one I could talk to, so I guess I was trying to hold him alone.

"It's not a bad idea to cry to those in the eye. Sometimes you can talk to them and throw them round. Otherwise, seniors will die in their spare time."

Say it, Sleighsta. Old man laughed with his mouth wide open.

"Can I count on my grandfather?

"I am with you. Don't hesitate."

"... thank you"

My eyes are going to be moistened by the gentle care of old Sleighsta.

"Well, please. Grandpa, please fix this problem."

"Say no!

"Yeahhh!!

What an old dragon!

I knew it was old Sleighsta. Please return my emotion.

Wow, and when I cried to Mr. Ashel like Priscia, I was stunned watching us interact.

"Grandpa and the others, they're idiots from each other. This is why the male..."

"Fools."

Yes, and Mr. Ashel sighs. Don't sneak up on Levaria and say terrible things, either.

"Ka. Let's talk to him. Isn't this good enough?"

Only Old Sleighsta kept laughing happily.

"Well, you'll be consulted, won't you?

"Hmm, your wish. You'll have to ask."

Are you satisfied with me, Old Sleighsta?

"But as I said earlier, my position remains the same."

"Yes."

"My role is to protect the dragon forest and the spirit tree. I will not resign myself to any means whatsoever to protect these. If the people vandalize the forest without permission and threaten the Spirit Tree, I will destroy the people relentlessly."

Sleighsta, old words have no lies or falsehoods. I am aware of that. [M]

People have cherished the dragon forest since its founding. If you hurt the forest without permission, that would be a felony. I have cherished it as much as the law requires.

Perhaps the first king of the kingdom of Armuard also understood the clear will of Old Sleighsta. I think that's why we've been strictly protecting the dragon forest.

"The decision that has been handed down to you and to the people is right. I would not have forgiven those who hurt the woods if they had appeared."

That said, there are people out there who really do the slightest bit of evil. I ran into such a scoundrel around the early summer last year, too.

I guess that was still within the tolerances of Sleighsta Old, but I never saw the Ear Elders living in the Dragon Forest.

I have not heard the aftermath of those villains captured by the Ear Elders. I'm sure he's not alive.

"That's right. I wouldn't normally want to destroy all of my people with about two degrees of evil alone. But we can't overlook the status quo."

"Saying?

"The fools are going into and out of the forest. I'm not comfortable with that."

Pointing out that there are people in the Dragon Forest, it makes me nervous.

I asked the Ear Elders and the Warcraft living in the Dragon Forest to help me at the Demonic Invasion Festival. And in the battle with the demon king Kushalila, Old Sleighsta and Mr. Ashel also joined the battle to protect the forest and the spirit tree.

There is an old legend left in the kingdom of Armuard. The dragon forest is home to the legendary guardian dragon.

Everyone thought it was a fairy tale.

That's what I thought until I met old Sleighsta, too.

But it wasn't.

The legendary guardian dragon did exist, and he even lived in the woods, another legend, the Ear Long Clan. There is no way in this fact that the flesh of the adventurer does not gush up.

There are so many labyrinthine ancient ruins and dragon peaks to try to set foot on. It is not strange that there are those who enter the dragon forest looking for dragon guardians and ear elders villages. I now realize that fact.

"Try the balance. Which would be annoying, being felled the dragon forest trees or being threatened with forest peace?

"Both are extremely annoying... but it's annoying to be wandering around looking for moss squares and ear elder villages, isn't it? I wonder if I have a problem with ear elders in particular. They have to use the woods to live."

"That's right. The ear elders are in trouble."

"It's my fault. I asked for your help..."

"It is a pleasure for them to cooperate with you. Don't worry about the area. But I can't overlook people's behavior any more. Would you know that?

"Yes. If I run out of grandpa's indulgence bag, it's gonna be a big deal"

It's a situation where people don't know when their nasty behavior will touch the old Sleighsta scales, right?

"So let us ask thee to do thy part. One, drive away those who are currently working in the woods. Let the other warn the people. I trust your work. I wonder if the rest of you will take my advice right. Allow dragon forest logging if you can control people"

"Really!?

I'm more surprised by the unexpected suggestion.

I never thought it would work.

"I told you, if only I could keep my word. If you do not heed my warning, tell the people that the next spring will not come."

"Okay. I'll be sure to tell Mr. Ludriard tomorrow."

"The elimination of the werewolf is good afterwards. And baldness is not allowed. Logging shall be at intervals of trees. I can't cut too much, and I forbid logging deep in the woods, ancient trees. And tell them to plant trees when the world is settled."

"At the end of the day, it's absolutely conditional on restoring the dragon forest."

"Whatever you want, you can spread the woods."

"Haha, I'll tell him so."

I was so surprised at the old Sleighsta concessions.

But when I think about it, this is Sleighsta's old kindness, isn't it?

Even if it's my first priority to protect the dragon forest, it cares about the species that live around me.

Probably the biggest factor is that the Ear Elders are in trouble? You can say their business is part of the woods.

I'm sure not to mention consideration for people. I have to explain the area properly to Mr. Ludriard. And if you're not going to convince me, you're going to have to give it up.

"Thank you for your kindness."

"Yes, thank you"

"What, if only this degree were a wish from you"

"Am I special?

"Ha ha, you are. It's special. That's why grow it right. Don't let me down."

"Yes, I will continue to refine"

I'm so glad you told Old Sleighsta it was special.

Can I call someone special, too? [M] Will that opponent please you then?

Mistral, Luiseine, Ufi, Nina and Lyla. Priscia, Ares and Niemia. Revaria or Ream or Fio. Too many special beings, I can't pick one...

"It's all very special. It's very greedy."

"Mr. Ashel and Grandpa are special too!

"What, besides me!?

"Good job. Good job."

"Oh, boy."

"What conversation..."

I'm apparently greedy. But everyone in the family is important and special. If you are told to be greedy to this extent, take it spoilt.

The sun went down sometime as we talked in, and me and Revaria were supposed to stay in the moss square this evening.
