267 Lesson 266

As the ancient dragon suggested, Deena found a group of dwarves moving down the street as they moved through the sky from the way. She originally had a good eye as a characteristic of the Elves and asked Ethereum to perform the magic of granting vision enhancement in order to be more in charge of the watch.

"The number is five, no. Six, right? You all have a harsh look... and you seem to be in a lot of a hurry."

Deena even sees their expression and tells everyone about it.

"Maybe something happened...... ok, I'll ask. Guys, come back later."

"That's, duh..."

What's this all about? That's what I tried to hear, Leila, but at that moment the words stopped when I saw Ethereum jump and fall off the back of Gu Long.

"This place is so expensive, isn't it? So, are you okay?

Layla asks Deena in awkwardness, but Deena stays smiling.

"It's okay, it's that Mr. Sota, isn't it?

Deena trusted Aotearoa wholeheartedly and had also decided she could manage to fall from this height given his abilities.

"That one."

Aeta at the time was confirming the appearance of the dwarf found by Deena as she let herself fall.

But even Ethereal Tai will be damaged if they fall at this rate. It also startles the dwarves on the ground when it comes to doing much more damage to the ground than that.

"Then that's it."

Aotearoa manipulates the wind around her and gradually reduces the rate of falling. By the time we got to the ground, its speed was almost zero, but the problem was elsewhere.

"Oh man, people are coming down from the sky!!

"Hih, are you a person? Could...... Demons!?

"No way, the legendary Dragon Nation!?

The idea of taking care not to surprise the dwarves had failed brilliantly.

"You should have gone down a little further..."

Aotearoa stood about ten meters in front of the dwarf, so he had ended up getting their attention unnecessarily.

"Uh, I'm sorry to surprise you. I'm a human race, and I wanted you to talk to me."

"Duh, from where!?

Ethereum pointed to the sky in response to their natural question with a surprising, less frightening look.

"I found you guys, so I jumped off the top a little bit. Can't you believe..."

Aotearoa was scratching her head with a troubled face.

The dwarf, on the other hand, kept his distance and was secretly discussing what to do against the man in front of him.

Then another dwarf man on a horse came rushing from the rear.

"Hey, wait!"

The man had left a little later than the other dwarves, so it seemed he had finally caught up here.

"Oh, you're finally here"

They gave a reassuring look when they found a dwarf man on a horse who was secretly discussing it. Apparently the lagging man was a man of an upper position among their settlements.

"Sorry, I finally caught up. Hmm? Are you... Lord Sorta? Yes, Lord Sorta!

"Now we're finally going to have a conversation... thanks for the one I remember"

Ethereum, relieved that there was a dwarf tribe to speak to, approached them and spoke to the man.

"Lord Sota, what the hell is this all about? Something's wrong with their expression..."

"Uh, I guess. Hey, I'm coming down from the top, and I think you're suspicious of my identity. Well, of course..."

Aotea said so again scratching her head.

"Uh, I see. Well, that's how you'd do it. You guys, it's okay, this guy's a trustworthy guy. Because you protected our settlement."

That's what they said, and they all looked at Ethereal's face in surprise. They were heading out to another settlement when the settlement was saved by Ethereum, and because all they heard about him in the story, they were full of surprises and heartfelt gratitude for meeting that person.

"If you...... thank you!

"Thank you for saving my family."

"Had it not been for you guys, I would have lost my people!

Put your palms back. They throw Ethereum's words of gratitude at you. I know how that feels, but Aeta wanted to move on and had a complicated look on her face.

"Whoa, you guys. Lord Sorta is in trouble, don't do that."

This word of a dwarf man on a horse manages to free Ethereum.

"Now you're finally going to get into the conversation. It looked like you were in a hurry, but what happened to you guys and where were you headed?

That's what makes them look so angry.

"Oh, yeah. We were on our way to tell another settlement about that! Lord Sorta, we're in a hurry!

"Wait! Let me talk to you for a second."

Ethereum rushes to stop the dwarves who tried to leave in a hurry.

"What do you mean, maybe a dwarf colony is being attacked by the ones in the empire? Unlike before, it's pretty straightforward."

"Did you know that it's our job to pass it on to other settlements"

I was surprised for a moment that Aotearoa knew, but still he and the dwarves were mysteriously convinced.

"I'm based in Toula, the city of adventurers, and there's one settlement where they fled. By now, the Lord's measure must have prepared a place to live."

I heard my people were safe. They were relieved.

"Good, because I was hoping one or more of my countrymen could help. Good, I'm so glad."

"So, you're sure there was a chief in this settlement. You're moving the place again now, aren't you? I want to make sure the chief is safe, can you tell me where he is?

The Ethereal Question was enough to haunt him. Tell the outsider. He may put his people in danger for that reason, but in front of us he is the benefactor of our own lives. Those two grids were haunting him as a dwarf.
