509 Don't tell the Demon King.

There are three Ear Elders who are going with us to the eastern lands.

One is Kate, a spiritual user. She's a small blonde, blue-eyed woman, and she looks like a middle-aged woman who's going to be four hundred this year.

"Nice to meet you. Not as good as Priscia, but if it's spiritual, I'll take care of it."

"Mr. Kate, you can't create a labyrinth!

"Yes?"

"Never mind Elnea's paranoia. Kate, please."

"I can't believe you're on a journey with Mist."

The second is Mr. Ellion. One of the envoys who visited the Great Forest in the east about thirty years ago, an old grandfather with a soft smile fits.

"Yikes. A journey is a journey. Glad to hear it."

"He's a cheerful grandfather."

"If I'm caught off guard, I'm gonna touch my ass."

"If I'm caught off guard, I'll try to touch my chest."

"Uh-huh. I don't know if I can travel with them."

"Mr. Ellion, if you do anything weird to my wives, I'll lock you in the back of the labyrinth."

"No, not at all. Young people aren't small these days."

The third, Mr. Carly. He was chosen as the escort for Mr. Ellion, who is not good at combat, and as the conductor in the event of any problems.

Mr. Carly is a comforting ally to us, so thank you.

"Nice to meet you. I've never been far from the dragon forest before."

"That's right. It would help if Mr. Carly were here."

"That's surprising. Mr. Carly feels like he's been through a lot."

"Lord Luiseine, that is overrated. I haven't..."

"Nda. Carly said she was trying to forget her broken heart by immersing herself in work because your sister shook her up. Your mother said."

"P, Priscia!?

"Mr. Carly......"

"It was 300 years ago."

We've been close before. I'm already close to the three of you who are going to cooperate this time, and I'm not going to introduce myself like I do now.

However, Mr. Carley was new to the expedition, Kate didn't have much experience traveling, and Mr. Ellion is a grandfather, so it was just in case we had a meeting before we left.

Then we cross the three of them and head to a square made in the dragon forest.

Earlier last year, you wanted a place in the Dragon Forest where everyone could get together, and I suggested that you get permission from Old Sleighsta to build it.

A place of interaction with the fact that dragons like Revaria and Mr. Ashel cannot be allowed into the village of the Ear Long clan, and the Ear Long clan people cannot be allowed into the moss square. So I rendezvoused with Levaria, and when I had to leave, I had a problem.

"I'm not willing to put anyone on it but you."

"Mmm, what a thing!

Revaria refused to ride the three Ear Elders.

This is troublesome.

"Why don't you ask someone from Dragon Peak for backup?"

"Right..."

Think a little and make a decision to use your wife's hand.

"I hope, Black Dragon, respond to your summons!

"Yes, sir. I was summoned."

I put my hand on my shadow and pass on my thoughts to Lily through the dragon vein. Then Lily responded to my voice.

Lily reveals her body from my shadow.

Big, summon, summon!

There were times when I meant to.

But I felt the white gaze of my wives, and I was immediately noticed to have failed.

"Elnea, I wonder how that sounds."

"Mr. Elnea, I'm embarrassed."

"In a little while, Ernea, you're broken."

"Before I saw you for a moment, Elnea, you had a heart attack."

"Dear Ernea, how could such a thing happen to Master Levaria..."

Lily consoled me to be depressed by Lila's denial.

Lily's the only one on my side now.

"Elnea, the demon king was sighing deeply at the hanging voice earlier."

"Yeah eh, why are you exposing yourself over there!?

But it was Lily who stabbed me in the stomach.

"And anyway...... Let's head out there."

"Oh, yeah. My people are in trouble..."

"Wow. On an empty journey."

Everyone is getting ready for me to fall on my knees with disappointment.

The wives go to Revaria's back. The ear elders, including Priscia, to Lily's back.

"Even, Ernea. Don't ever sell oil in a place like that."

"Ernea, I'm leaving you, aren't I?

"Oh, wait a minute."

I'm not even allowed to be depressed. I get up reluctantly. And he moved to Lily's back without hesitation.

"Elnea, you betrayed me."

"Elnea, you're cheating on me."

"Dear Ernea!?

Stunning wives.

Leveria stares at me for choosing Lily, not herself.

"No, no, you're misunderstanding something, folks. I just want to have a few more meetings with the Ear Elders while I'm on the move, okay?

"Pretend"

"Here, Ares! I'm an honest husband!

I hurriedly throw potatoes into Ares' mouth and seal her mouth. He then succeeded in giving Priscia potatoes to prevent any further disturbances.

"Well, that's good. Elnea, please take care of Priscia."

"Yeah, I got it."

"Mr. Elnea, you mustn't spoil me."

Copy that, sir.

"Well, then, I'll leave."

"The noisy ones."

Revaria, who looks tired from before she leaves, and Lily, who is full of energy, rise.

Ah. Will Levaria fly from the kingdom of Jortenitos and be in full return? Well, you're tired, aren't you?

We had to take a break somewhere, and we became empty travelers.

Lily and Levaria head east through the dragon forest to the land of the kingdom of Armuad.

When I headed to the kingdom of Yortenitos two years ago, I flew along the shores of the southern lake with the consideration of not threatening people with the presence of the Dragons, but now I'm fine.... right?

Flying along the street, travelers and adventurers looked up at the sky and looked at this one.

You can go over the dragon forest, but given the rest, there's a better place to rest on the land where people get their hands. Some travelers will be unfamiliar with the dragon tribe's appearance, but priority will be given here to Levaria's strength and recovery.

"Hey, hey, I just want to make sure you get there by the time I get there,"

Until the king capital of the kingdom of Jortenithos, it will probably be a journey of two days or so. Considering from there to the further east border, maybe three days each way?

If we go to the ground, it will take decades, and we will go on in just three days. I always thought this flying ability of the Dragons was amazing, wasn't it?

But on the contrary, we'll be on the ground soon, so there's something we need to check quickly before we do.

"You simply can't accept the Ear Elders who have been chased through the Great East Forest in the Dragon Forest, can you?

"Right. As Ernea knows, the Dragon Forest is a special forest dearly guarded by Master Sleighsta. Acceptable if you are a visitor, but you will have a problem letting them live"

"I want you to feel exclusive that there are only our villages in this vast dragon forest."

"Unless only a few marry and invite them into the village. Young and old, we can't accept it unconditionally without grasping our identity and personality."

"I knew you were,"

That's a reply I've known for a long time before I asked you a question, but it was something I had to check clearly here.

"I ask the opposite question, can't we even welcome the ear elders in the matter before moving in with the spirits?

"Right. As I explained in advance during the last year, the land of emigration will be a special place. So I can't invite you unless you have a strong relationship with us."

This, too, is what I knew from the beginning.

A long-eared clan appeared who lost his way. That's why we can't take you to a forbidden territory. Because instead of trusting them, you don't even know each other.

Besides, I am uncomfortable with the part where I couldn't rely on my fellow forest people. If you look at Mr. Carley and the others, you can see that the Ear Elders are willing to try to be friendly and cooperate with one another against their fellow countrymen. And yet I couldn't rely on it.

I mean, they must have some kind of problem. And I haven't told that to this one.

He's hiding the inconvenient part while he seeks help. Not very much, but you can't build deep trust with those people, can you?

Well, it's possible that my thoughts might be over-thought.

Whatever it is, as things stand, it is unacceptable, either in the dragon forest or in the forbidden territories.

"Next, then. Have the Ear Elders of the Great Forest of the East been fighting over territory with the Giants for a long time?

"I haven't heard from you for how long, but you do keep fighting. As an ear elder, I want to live quietly in the woods."

"But, you know, if the Giants break through the woods and break in, they're gonna have to fight, right?

"No matter how much you're lost in the woods, you can't be deforested from one end."

"I wonder why the Giants have invaded the woods? Because there's no other land...?

We have also only been near the eastern border of the Kingdom of Yortenitos. I don't know what size the Great Forest is, and what lies ahead.

Speaking of which, when you traveled through history on the back of the Dragon God, you saw the Giants.

I think that was a long time ago. You didn't see a person or a dragon, but you definitely think it was a flatland stretching east of Dragon Peak, or the territory of the current Armuard kingdom. The giants built a village there and lived there.

Maybe thousands of years ago, this neighborhood was the living area of the Giants.

"But the Ear Elders have continued to defend that forest, even as they continue to contend more than they did in ancient times. Will we suddenly have to get out of the woods now?"

"So is that. Besides, there are no other ear clans besides those who escaped, are there?

"In Lyla's story, it seems so"

"It's a strange story. There were about five ear clan villages there, but everywhere worked together against the Titans. Yet I had no idea that other villages would remain silent in a situation where the escapees were out"

"Mm-hmm, are you fighting?

"What do you think?

"You know what? You can't fight, right? When your father and mother fight, Priscia gets sad."

"Right. Fighting isn't good, is it? People around you get sad."

Priscia doesn't know the hard story. But thanks for the disturbing signs among the ear elders living in the Great Forest, and Priscia looked at me anxiously.

I'll stroke Priscia's head. As he did so, he stared at the eastern end of the road where he was headed, wondering what was going on.

We headed east to see Levaria's fatigue and arrived on the spot as planned on the afternoon of the third day.

But what was waiting for me there was unexpected.

Dang, the explosion sounds, and shock waves are transmitted to the sky.

The origin of the explosion was the outer wall of the fort guarding the eastern border of the Kingdom of Yortenitos.

Continuously, the flash of explosion pops into my eyes over and over again. And a moment late, there was an explosion and a shock wave.

What the hell is going on!?

From far above, stare with dragon-headed eyes.

What I saw was a hell of a situation.

The Ear Elders were unleashing their spirituality toward the fort.

The Spirit of Fire emits a flame, scorching the outer walls of the fort black. The spiritual art of the wind becomes a sharp blade and tries to chop up a burnt outer wall. Ear elders, scaffolding with ear spirituality, were about to climb high exterior walls.

"How much, what do you mean!?

The Ear Elders were attacking the fort with everyone bravely screaming.

The fort on the attacked side is on the defensive side.

... That's weird. Sometimes the eastern border, there should be dragon knights stationed in the fort. And yet, there is no counterattack from the Dragon Knights. On the contrary, the soldiers stuck in the fort are on the defensive side, with no sign of even fighting back.

Or the fort feels reinforced by dragon art. In response to massive spiritual arts, the outer walls continued to maintain robust barriers without collapsing.

"Ernea?"

"Yeah. You can't swallow the situation, but you can't overlook it."

Leveria's approaching this way to take Lily. And see what Mistral will do on the other side. [M]

There is too much explanation and confusion that Lyla was giving me.

Before heading to the eastern border, in the king's capital of the kingdom of Jortenitos, the king said to greet me, but there was no mention of this situation.

Does that mean it won't be long after all the noise?

Whatever it is, we need to stop the Ear Elders offense first.

"Lily, say hello to the near field!

"Yes, yes."

I was going to ask you to drop me off in the near field...

Lily's dragon temper swells.

And a roar.

A huge black sphere released from Lily's mouth landed near the ear elders who were attacking the fort.

Giggly, the unpleasant noise that makes the space sound.

A black sphere that extinguishes not only the earth, but even the atmosphere that existed on the spot. Swallow the light and erase everything.

For a while, the black sphere became smaller and vanished without detonation after it had kept its presence near the Ear Elders.

Shortly afterwards. The ear elders, who were moving to the sudden activation of a terrible technique on the immediate side, are sucked into the space where the black sphere existed.

The space is sucking in every surrounding presence to reclaim the lost atmosphere.

The ear elders screamed and were blown away and stripped from the fort.

"There's no injuries or anything, is there?

"I didn't let the Ear Elders hit me. If you were blown up and injured, I wouldn't know."

Lily replies cheerfully...

Suddenly, two giant dragon clans appeared in the sky. The ear elders finally noticed this presence and panicked.

"You clutterfish, it's noisy!

There, Levaria gave off such a horrible growl that she thought of a tyrant.

For some reason, the screams of the Dragon Clan rising from within the fort.

The Ear Elders, who were pushing against the fort, shuddered at the tyrant's killing and fled.
