“You know that place too.”
Quilbian turned slightly and looked at Flan.
“I know, I know. I know the horrible things that often crawl out of there.”
“Yes, it’s terrible.”
Quilbian said, recalling the dormitory.
“I plan to go back once I understand the imaginary world and can regain my body. I have work to do when I get there.”
“Be careful when you go. When you open the door, those horrible things might pop out. I hate them because they make my head hurt every time I see them.”
It was a rabbit that lifted its head.
“What would you do if you met a goblin?”
“Knock it down. It shouldn’t exist here. Even our mother, who is against interfering with the status quo, would agree to destroy it.”
“Even the god of Barara hates goblins.”
“It’s more of a concept of organization than disliking. If there was a kettle sitting right there on the bookshelf, what would you do?”
“We need to clean it up. We need to put it back where it was.”
“That’s it. Each one has his or her own place. This place belongs here, that place belongs there.”
Flan bounced off the hammock.
“Follow me.”
As I walked towards the blocked wall, the wall was pushed away in an instant, creating a new space.
An iron cabinet rose up from the empty floor with a loud thud.
“Where should I look, where should I look?”
Flang, who had been looking around, repeatedly adjusting his glasses, took out a small wooden horse from the cabinet.
It was the size that would make it a child’s toy.
“ruler.”
I was about to hand it over without thinking, but then I flinched and stopped extending my hand.
“It’s really salty.”
“It smells like a spirit. How about taking it? I don’t know what magic is contained in it, but it will be more useful to you than to me.”
“I’ll pack it up for now.”
“That’s right. Dragons like coffee, hm. That’s very satisfying information.”
It seemed that the horse was the master of revealing Winte’s tastes.
For an ordinary person, there will be no particular problem if they come into contact with the wooden horse. The magic and salt contained within it will only react to those who have a Nak.
I felt the saltiness secretly.
It got dark all around.
Quilbian turned around at the strong energy he felt behind him.
A crouching wild dog was staring. Although small in size, the strength and determination it contained were no less than that of a fox or a raccoon.
The wild dog barked fiercely.
Quilbian raised his hand in greeting, then paused for a moment to watch the circling Nak.
The darkness has receded.
I saw Flang standing still and staring.
“What did you see?”
“There’s a wild dog hiding. It’s a very vicious one.”
“Can you tame it?”
“I don’t know. And there are ways to use it even if you don’t tame it.”
“That’s true.”
Flange, sitting on the hammock, tapped his knees.
“I think it’s going to rain.”
“Is it raining?”
“There is something like that. Wake up that disobedient kid and go quickly. That kid is weak and groans when it gets wet.”
It was a clear, cloudless sky.
I shook Elcoco without saying anything.
It seems like there have been a lot of cases of people hitting people who have passed out lately.
When I lifted her cheek so that it made a slap sound, Elcoco’s eyes opened wide. She made a fierce expression and soon started to cry.
“It hurts.”
“I hit you because it hurt. Get up.”
“Grandma, I don’t like this guy.”
“I hate you too.”
Flange turned his head, telling him to hurry up and go. His prickly ears folded and unfolded once, as if he was waving.
“You spicy old hag.”
“I, I, I, I, I’m just talking nonsense.”
“I’ll come back next week! I’ll come and lie down for a few days.”
Flange looked at Quilbian.
“You human bastard, you… … .”
“This is Quilbian.”
“Yeah, Quill. You take that naughty kid and teach him some moral education. Tsk tsk, the world is going to end.”
“Let’s try.”
Then Elcoco turned around, grunting.
“Anyway, I’ll be back next week!”
“Don’t come!”
“Huh! He’s coming!”
It was Elcoco, who disappeared into the darkness along the blue line, grumbling.
Quilbian bowed his head toward Flan.
“I’ll go and see.”
“Okay, take care. If you have anything to tell me about the shy guy later, come back again. I’ll always be happy to help.”
“Please take care of the child too,” said Flang in a very small voice.
“Looking at how well she’s moving around the castle, I don’t think anyone would mess with her. The lord seems to be quite concerned about her as well.”
“Because he’s my communication channel and I know I’m looking after him. No one would harm him unless they’re crazy. But just in case.”
Flange sank into the hammock and closed his eyes, as if he had nothing more to say.
Quilbian also turned around and followed the blue line out.
The vast space disappeared.
Looking back, all I see is a strange house.
“What did you say?”
“He told me to stay quiet.”
“lie.”
Elcoco brought a horse.
“That old lady is lonely, and she hates having anyone near her. She’s really bad. Or is she just shy?”
Quilbian could understand Plan’s feelings.
I heard that the Barara tribe lives for thousands of years. That’s a long time. How many humans have disappeared while guarding Plan?
Still, Flan stayed by his side.
Should I say he is a tough person or a soft person? Ah, he is not a human.
“Let’s go. They said it might rain.”
“That’s right. If Grandma says her knee hurts, it’ll rain every time. Let’s go quickly. If we hurry, we can get there before midnight. It’s a curfew for the general public, but Quilbian can easily ignore it.”
Elcoco drove the horse.
And then, as if on cue, the rain poured down.
“Eww! It’s coming!”
Quilbian looked up at the sky after seeing Elcoco making a fuss.
The dark, cloudless sky was pouring rain.

Kuhad closed the window. The study was slightly wet from the sudden downpour.
“Is it a good omen or a bad omen?”
A mysterious death that occurred in the pioneer area.
The mercenary, whose life was a means of trade, withdrew as soon as he heard the details of the request, and the spirit magician was taken away by a man who suddenly appeared out of nowhere and paid a huge fee.
I went to the vicinity of the settlement with the wizard who resided in the territory, but it didn’t yield much results.
A few days ago, we gathered up back-alley thugs who would give up their lives for money and scattered them throughout the pioneer area, but no one died.
It was too burdensome to proceed with the work, believing that it was a one-time accident.
Because Yeong Ji-min risked her life to escape.
If we move again and the same problem occurs, then there will be talk among the residents.
We must not give them an excuse. Stories of nobles being killed by uprising residents were heard frequently.
It was because the weight of the bloodline became lighter as the Linehens became 17 countries.
It is said that even Nesim, who is of lowly blood, can enter if he proves his ability.
Ability is the only thing that matters.
What a terrible thing this is.
We had to put to rest the useless rumors that life would change if we just entered Nata, and turn the attention of the residents to the new land.
I will do anything to hold onto the land and its people, which has been a part of my grandfather’s grandfather’s legacy since his grandfather’s grandfather.
Kuhad thought of Quilbian.
He was like a revelation from God.
One who casts magic freehand.
My son said that he took the knife with his bare body.
Moreover, he immediately discovered the clumsy assassins he had sent out for testing, and even read the meaning contained in them.
It was a monster that could talk.
What a blessed encounter this is.
“Quilbian is back.”
“Okay. Just keep your distance and watch like you always do. Don’t bother me.”
“All right.”
Kuhad smiled contentedly and sat down on his chair.
Let’s leave unexplained deaths to unidentified monsters.
It was a monster that wouldn’t bite unless you touched it. They just had to use each other happily and part ways, promising to wait until the next time.
or not…….
“Did you get married?”
It wasn’t a bad thing to accept them as part of the family.

“It’s El Coco. You can call me El or Coco, whichever is more comfortable for you.”
“I’m Idril. You’re so charming.”
“Oh my, how can you say something like that when you first meet someone?”
Elcoco smiled brightly.
“I really like it. I hope you get along well in the future.”
“sure.”
“I like Mr. Idril because he’s a decent guy. Unlike that incompetent guy over there.”
Quilbian stared blankly at Elcoco, who was about 10 meters away. When their eyes met, he turned his head in surprise.
“Could you have heard it?”
“Mr. Quill would have probably heard of it.”
“Oh my god, I’m going to get in trouble again.”
“Mr. Quill is a good person, so you’d better refrain from saying bad things about him.”
“You like that guy? I don’t agree with that. He’s a very petty guy.”
It would be best to ignore it. Quilbian turned his head once and looked at the inspection team.
There were soldiers lined up, led by Rookie. Five of them looked like elite soldiers, and the rest seemed like regular soldiers who could handle spears just fine.
Since it wasn’t something that required force, it didn’t matter how the personnel were selected.
It was something I could have done alone.
“Please get in the carriage.”
Rookie said. Quilbian got on the carriage quietly, thinking that if he ran beside him, he would attract attention.
“It’s soft.”
Idril sat across from me.
“Wow! This fabric is really expensive.”
Elcoco sat next to me.
“depart!”
Rookie’s voice was heard.
Even though no one had called him out, there were people standing at the crossroads. There were quite a few people who called Rookie friendly, saying things like “Master” or “Prince.”
“I guess you haven’t lived a hard life.”
“What is it?”
Elcoco asked, nodding.
“I’m talking to Mr. Rookie.”
“Ah, my lord. He is a bit arrogant, so he sometimes gets criticized, but his overall reputation is good. The lord also says he is a lacking son, but he cherishes him.”
“The son follows his father, and the father trusts his son. That’s good, that’s a good family.”
“You have changed a lot since your mother, Lady Izel, passed away. When you were young, you used to get scolded a lot.”
“You passed away young. Was it an illness?”
“I don’t know. He was a healthy person, but he suddenly passed away one day. I happened to be with Plan at the castle, so I saw Izel’s last appearance… … He looked very comfortable. He seemed somewhat satisfied. Now that I say it, it’s a strange way to put it, but that’s how I saw it.”
Quilbian ended the conversation with a nod.
I had no intention of digging deeper, no desire to know.
These are people who will die soon anyway.
Elcoco, who was humming next to me, and Idril, who was sitting across from me and looking out the window, will both be in the coffin in about 60 years.
If you have an accident, you’ll be buried in the ground faster.
Even then, I will wander alone through the realms of hypocrisy, the gaps, and reality.
“Mix yourself into human society. Realize that you are human and regain your humanity. Thinking about it, it was a difficult task.”
“Grandma’s homework is always difficult.”
Idril, who had been listening to the conversation, blinked and asked.
“I shouldn’t ask what you’re talking about, right?”
“Why not! I’ll explain everything.”
Idril listened attentively while Elcoco chattered excitedly.
Quilbian moved his finger and tapped his ear. The sound disappeared as ‘quiet for now’ was expressed.
Well, it’s comfortable.
I closed my eyes and ignored the two chattering humans.
