Chapter 291 – Great Madness (3)
‘──Is it telepathy?’
I half-opened my eyes as I listened to By-Con’s thoughts on his back.
Everything the bicorn spits out sounds like a horse cry to the other race except me. In fact, he shot out his mind, but the other party members were shaking their heads.
Still, the fact that the bicorn suddenly fired at us is important.
‘Veronica intervened in the rune she linked.’
It is not strange that there is a runic link between her and that bicorn—her name was Adelaide.
If you know someone, you might have left a line that connects your mind like exchanging numbers.
But it’s another story to cut into our lines and talk to them.
For example, this was equivalent to a third party entering the SNS room where the password was entered. It would be impossible without that kind of magic skill.
【Hmm.】
Adelaide looked at Veronica carefully and twitched the corners of her mouth. A bicorn bigger than an elephant means charisma came.
【That clumsy kid brought her a wide-eyed guest. Is the person next to you the guide of the prophecy?]
【Not yet. But it will be like that in the future.]
【… Let’s see if there is a situation. If it was good news, you wouldn’t have such a sullen face.]
Was it because it was a plain answer for her bragging about her husband while proudly spreading her breasts?
Adelaide had no idea of the Prophet’s misguided prophecies, but she seemed to have a glimpse of the way things were going.
It’s definitely a bicorn with a demeanor and ability that feels like a god, far from the secular world.
【It would be nice. Tell me about your current situation.]
Adelaide gently turned her back, probably accustomed to acting in the form of her horse. Veronica looked at us and said.
【My dear. I’m going to explain the situation to that old man for a while. Will you wait?]
[Put carrots, Shiva. Slowly unwind and come.]
【Huh. It’s not even like that.]
It was a blunt answer that seemed like she would puff up her cheeks. It’s not like our Veronica reaction, but it’s cute, so I passed it.
I nodded her head, and Adelaide wiggled her horse’s tail.
【Elka. Do not leave the reception of guests. Take me to the fountain.]
【Yeah!】
A colt jumped out at Adelaide’s horse. She was a curious bicorn with golden hair and white horns that her horse would not normally have.
In foal mode, she looks much younger than Veronica. She really looks like she was born less than a month ago.
-Wheeze-whee-jeok.
Elka swung in front of us with her front paw, as if she thought she couldn’t communicate with us. It sounded like a call to follow her.
We are chasing after the little colt who leads the way.
─Glance.
While walking on the bicorn called Elka, he kept looking back at me. I thought I was looking at it because I was worried that it would follow, but if I looked closely, I could see a strange envy in his eyes.
‘Does he know that I am the one who lifted the curse?’
As a bicorn, Elca also noticed the enormous amount of mana I possessed.
If you know the prophecy of the prophet, you will inevitably have such a reaction.
It is as if a child suffering from an incurable disease from birth sees a doctor who can treat him or her.
When I was in her hometown, I wanted to become a veterinarian, but I never thought I would be reminded of her old days in this way. I scratched my cheek.
“Wow… Senior? The golden pony is surprisingly cute too♡”
Lalilura, who likes most animals, whispered to me, perhaps enchanted by the cute peek.
After all, all young animals are cute no matter what kind they are. Calves and colts are surprisingly cute when you look at them.
【Hee hee.】
Elka let out a cry as she descended the cliff-like hill.
Seeing that my ears couldn’t interpret it, it seems like I just spit out some kind of cry. He thought he wouldn’t understand anyway and gave up on the conversation.
“Beautiful…”
Seeing the sight of Sam arriving, Fran widened her eyes.
She seemed to empathize, even though Dana and Rari Lu didn’t even say it. Sam was so beautiful.
It is a space rich in a jewel-like blue spring and flowers and grass around it. It was decorated like an emperor’s garden, so my fucking jaw dropped.
In one corner is an empty lot where no grass grows. Perhaps Adelaide was the space to lay her body down.
And in that space, there was a guest who came before us.
〈 huh?〉
The little boy, who looked like a stunted middle school student, flew around with wings attached to his back, then flinched as if surprised by our appearance.
Is it about the size of Flying Green Jaemin?
A child-like alien species with translucent wings.
Among the heterogeneous races in the Romania area, it was a fairy that had little interaction with humans.
〈 Wow! Human, human!〉
As soon as the fairy who was taking care of the flowers saw us, it flew in without warning.
I backed away, frightened by the feeling of reviving the PTSD that the Tinkerbell moths had in the military.
Damn, this sacred place is fucking big for both bicorns and fairies. What the fucking Jurassic Park is.
Finally, does Kingryong appear in this world of fucking? It’s just that my heart is pounding.
Or maybe the fairy race was originally this big.
〈 What is it? Golden son, did you bring the children wandering through the woods again? Then you get scolded by the horns?〉
【Hee hee.】
Again, this is a meaningless cry. Judging by the accent, it seems to mean something like ‘ah yes’.
It felt like she had no complaints because she knew that even the fairies couldn’t talk to the bicorn. It must have been something he said without expecting an answer, like talking to the dog next door.
Maybe that’s why Fairy listened and stopped and waved at us.
〈 Hello humans! I’m Anne Miriam!〉
〈 Nord. Please take good care of me.〉
〈 Yes! But human! How did you get in here Did he bring you?〉
〈 No. There was another bicorn I knew, so I was guided by him.〉
Isn’t it Gura that fairies have little interaction with humans? This guy’s attitude is like a capybara in another world.
〈Bicon Do you have friends? Just like me!〉
Ann was taken aback by her grand gestures.
〈 Human, human! Have you ever met the big mate here? Do you know what The only bicorns that live here are golden and have horns? The other animals get kicked out if the horns don’t allow it! So it’s the first time people come in! Be careful if you don’t want to get scolded by the horns!〉
No, there are so many of these bastards.
I thought I knew why that bicorn kid named Elkara gave up trying to talk to a different race. If someone who doesn’t even communicate with you keeps chattering in your ear like that, you’d get tired of it.
So I first tried to take the initiative in the conversation.
〈 Mr. Anne? How are you here There must be a barrier in the Holy Land.〉
〈 Just call me Ann! I got hurt while playing in the woods, but a gold dog brought me here and gave me some herbs! But a holy place?〉
Judging from what he’s talking about, he probably doesn’t know much about the circumstances of Vicorn.
Well, how many people in this world know that bicorns were once gods? I glossed over the story, saying it was nothing.
〈Anyway, I’m indebted to them, so I’m decorating Sam here in return! My people are good at growing plants!〉
〈 I see. That’s a cool ability. It seems that the golden girl guided us here, can we rest here too?〉
〈 Of course! Ah, but can’t we pick flowers on our own? His Majesty said to beware of humans! You guys pick all the flowers and herbs?〉
〈usually but not us.〉
As I said that, I let go of my pretense.
‘I guess I roughly understand why the fairies don’t interact with humans.’
What would happen if Fairy, a living plant nutrient, caught our eye? There is no way that capitalism will work on the children living in the forest.
Slavery is legal in Romania, and illegal slavery exists behind it.
In the basement of a mansion in Romania, the Grim Goblin—no, the Herb Fairy might be growing drugs or potions. It’s dark. Sorry human
〈 Ann. Could you please take a look at my weapon?〉
Oh, of course sorry is sorry and this is it.
I held out my mithril spear to the Flying Middle Fairy.
As much as Aura Release was added to my goal, I was worried that the spear that deflects other people’s mana would affect that achievement.
〈 What is it? Give it to me!〉
Anne obediently accepted her spear and her eyes widened.
〈 Wow! Wow! What is this? Divine tree?〉
〈 No. Somehow, it developed a feature that only reacted to my mana, but it was said to be a branch of some kind of tree monster.〉
〈 Wood Woo~? So is it a trend? Are you an Ent? 〉
Anne, who was flying around with a spear, tilted her head.
〈 Oh, isn’t it? Trees are normal Isn’t this a mana change? Does this only respond to your mana? Are you actually a very awesome wizard?〉
〈 There were some twists and turns. So how about it?〉
〈 Eh. Has that? It’s not uncommon for trees to seep into water or land mana! But for fire or someone else’s mana to seep into it, you need a lot of mana or great skill.〉
Mana of fire. Those words reminded me of a burning branch.
Wasn’t it the tree that grew in the space where the weapon pieces of Asgard Must Kill, Surt or something, were embedded? Like that, my spear also caused a change in mana.
Surprisingly, there was a similar case nearby.
Ann rubbed her windowpane like she was petting her baby.
〈 Human. This boy loves you very much. So you should feed this kid mana often.〉
〈… Changi likes me?〉
〈 Yes! Even plants have a very, very, very faint heart!〉
〈 Is it something like that, if you say something nice, it will grow up? 〉
〈 What? How did you know? That’s right! That’s how our species keeps plants growing!〉
Anyway Sifal, pseudoscience transcends time and space.
Science knowledge sleeping in my neurons tried to blow fire, but I refrained from doing so.
Isn’t it a fact that common sense on Earth is less credible than Namu Wiki in this fucking magical world? Looking at that Wiki-Fairy’s confident expression, it seems that this is common sense in this world.
I’m going to tighten my neck here and refute and then become that guy? I would be the only one who would be ashamed if I showed a demonstration of such a thing.
‘I’ll do whatever you ask me to do.’
Self-hypnosis ON.
When you grow plants, you have to praise them so that they can grow well, right? Is this ‘common sense’?
It’s not even a business to lay down, so let’s try it later. Distributing mana to spears was not difficult.
〈 By the way, human? You, honestly, did you usually roll him rough? Right?〉
〈… Did you take care of others? I cleaned the window pole and changed the window blade.〉
〈 That’s not enough! No, more than that, how would he feel if you only loved Mithril! The kid has become like a scythe after starving for a week!〉
I hope you avoid analogies that even veterinary medicine dropouts cannot follow. Anne, who openly ignored me, who was a bit dazed, rubbed her cheek against the window sill.
〈 Umm… Recently, it seems that something pleasant happened after a long time, but at best I got out of the tool and regained my vitality, but I didn’t receive love from the owner? Oh, more than that, what’s his name?〉
〈 I didn’t build it separately.〉
〈 What?! You didn’t even give me a name?! God, I can’t believe it! You are a plant abuser!! Don’t you feel sorry for this kid?!〉
Oh shit fuck Now I’ve come to the point where I’m being cursed at by Botany. Ann gasped as her face turned red.
〈 No way! I can’t entrust such a promising child’s future to a heartless human like you! This child I will take to Seelie Court and let her talent blossom!
〈 Yes~ No stealing~♡〉
Larry Lura hooked the thread of her 〈 Puppetry 〉 to her Ann’s feet and pulled them. Ann being held back like a bird flying off her leash.
〈 profit! Hey, let it go! I will take this child! I can make you happier than a scoundrel like you!〉
He’s filming a morning drama by himself. I resolutely retrieved the mithril spear.
As if her baby and her child were taken away, I feel like a worse person because of her fairy with tears welling up. Anne fashioned it into her bracelet and put it on her hand so that she could get rid of her lingering feelings.
Anyway, I figured out that there was a way to enhance my weapon, so that’s fine. I fiddled with the window sill.
‘… If something good has happened recently, it must have been when I was wrapped in Beast Return mana.’
Because I can’t think of anything other than that.
Even if you just add MP without money or strengthening stones, you can grow up quickly. What a wise enhancement system! Based on my standard of adapting to K-RPG, I felt nothing but emotion.
… But it won’t explode if the reinforcement fails, right?
─Thump, thump.
As I was thinking about what to do if it breaks again, I heard footsteps.
I’ve never heard of this super-heavyweight foot roll. Looking back, a giant bicorn with a shoulder height of 5 meters was approaching.
Looking at it again, it’s a bicorn that looks like it’s going to win against Tyranno. The Shinma and back teeth I had seen in my dreams before made me feel like I was about to burst out.
【Hmm. You’re a young guide What are you fighting about?]
【What. It’s nothing.]
Seeing that he is called a guide, he seems to have heard everything about the situation.
Adelaide’s eyes curved like crescent moons.
[Oh. You really can speak the words of a bicorn.]
【If so, would I have told a lie? Do you know a little bit how wonderful my proud owner is? Yes?】
Veronica clung to my arm and smiled proudly.
It feels like an immature young bride who boasts to her alumni that her husband’s salary is 700 after tax. It’s so cute I want to bite it.
【It was hard to believe until you saw it yourself. The story of the Prophet’s alter ego and the prophecies were also surprising, but… He is the successor of the Sky God.]
Adelaide, who seemed excited, lay her body in a clearing where her grass did not grow.
【It would be nice. Originally, she thought she would give up the chance to lift the curse to Elka, since her body was just about to reach her dawn… I don’t think it’s an experiment in the Haeju method or a preparation to awaken your ‘real qualities’.]
What are the real qualities? Where she came to hear her information about Henir, I blinked her eyes in the feeling that she was about to experience an unexpected development.
Adelaide saw me and laughed as she ran her tail across her floor.
【It’s a guide. Can you break my curse?]
… Break the curse of that size?
I sighed as I looked up at the wide back of the bicorn, which seemed to be over two meters tall.
Damn, it must feel like washing Optimus Prime’s car.
