Chapter 427 – Ep.426 Kalan Grand Forest
After some more time has passed.
“Then I’ll come back.”
“Please be careful.”
Kernax, dressed lightly, hugged me tightly at the front door. Kernax’s warmth felt very good. Maybe that’s why I fell first because I thought I wouldn’t be able to keep up if I continued like this any longer.
“Just in case, don’t eat anything they bring here.”
“How many times are you talking about?”
“No matter how many times I tell you, it’s not enough.”
“… I understand, so go quickly. “Everyone will be waiting.”
Kernax blushed and pushed my back.
Except for Nyaho, Kernax was the weakest among the group, but he was still much stronger than me.
I was pushed out and turned my head.
“Nemea!! Please take care of my wife!!”
“… Eh, eh!! “I’m telling you to stop and go quickly!!”
In the end, he was practically kicked out of his lodgings by Kernax.
“… “I’ll be waiting for you, so you have to come back quickly.”
“I’ll finish it quickly and come back.”
“… Huh.”
I stepped back, lightly licking Kernax’s lips as he stuck his head out through the slightly open door.
“I’m really going to come back.”
“… “Please come back.”
I exchanged greetings with Kernax and turned around.
“We’re not going anywhere, so why make such a fuss?”
“Jealousy.”
“Jeez, Jill… !! Oh, no?!”
“Ugh, yes, yes.”
“Ugh…”
When I pulled his silence followed and patted his buttocks, Shiron pouted his lips but naturally leaned his head on my shoulder.
“But is it okay if I leave without saying anything?”
“Yes. “There is no problem as this child can provide directions for me.”
-Tweet.
It was a blue bird that I had seen several times in Mallingta, and it climbed from my shoulder onto her head and tilted its head cutely.
“Okay. Then, I will ask you to guide me to where the guy I mentioned earlier is. “I have to get out quickly so other elves can work.”
“Yes.”
When Qi Na slightly extended her hand forward, the blue bird that had been riding on her head landed on her Qi Na’s index finger.
-Tweet.
Not long after, it spread its small wings and flew away somewhere.
‘If I go like that, can I chase you?’
Just as I was thinking that, looking at the blue bird that quickly disappeared from sight, I stepped in front of her.
“I will guide you.”
We slowly made our way out of the capital, following Gienna.
**
“… “How do you guys find your way in a forest like this?”
“Animals and spirits show the way.”
Siron casually used a derogatory word about her elf, but since she had always done so, I answered her question without any hesitation.
“And if you look closely, the types of plants growing in each area are different, and the animals distributed are also different, so it’s surprisingly easy to distinguish them.”
“… I can not.”
Siron came riding on my back with a tired expression on his face as it was filled with huge trees and lushly growing bushes. And.
“Ahh!!”
He screamed and fell backwards.
“Are you carrying me on my back when it’s not enough even if I carry you on my back? “Are you crazy?”
“Ssi…”
Siron, who had a small bump on her forehead, raised her eyes and glared at Siran, who was walking ahead of her. I turned my head away, pretending not to notice the small argument between the mother and daughter.
“Nyahoya. Are you okay?”
“Yes. “As you said, I brought my own well-ventilated boots so there is no problem.”
Since I always wear shoes that look like rubber shoes, I told her to bring one just in case, and luckily it seems to have helped.
‘But Nyaho is also amazing.’
I told Kernax to rest at the lodgings, but Nyaho said that this forest was like a gold mine and that he would come along to ensure happiness in his old age.
‘I’ll have to ask you to bring me some jewelry or something later.’
After scratching Nyaho’s chin a few times, I looked back a little more. There, Tania was walking with a more lively face than before she left. Looking at her like that, it seems clear that Tania is of a race called Dryad.
‘I love the forest so much, but I can’t believe I lived in that gloomy basement for decades…’
Tania said she didn’t think anything of it, but I don’t plan on leaving that high elf I’ll meet in a few days alone.
“Giena…”
“Yes.”
Siron, who was having a snowball fight with Siran, asked me as she put another bump on her forehead.
“How much further do we have to go?”
“I think I’ll arrive by dawn at the latest.”
“… “Can’t you just run?”
I also pricked up my ears.
In fact, I pretended to be okay, but walking through a maze-like forest in the hot sun was not very enjoyable. In addition, insects that would make you curse out loud were often hit by your feet or fell from above.
‘Even bugs are like bugs…’
I was so surprised when, not long after leaving the capital, a caterpillar bigger than my fist fell from the sky.
At that moment, I became a delicate Smith and screamed.
“First of all, we cannot keep up with Siran and Amela’s speed. However, if we cling to those two, there is a risk that Nyaho and that person will fall apart along the way.”
“… “Isn’t it okay if I adjust the speed appropriately?”
“To do that, you have to step on the branches instead of the top, and in that case, Mr. Smith may feel dizzy.”
After hearing that, I slightly raised my head.
The trees in the great forest were so tall and thick that it felt awkward to compare them with the trees growing in other forests. Even the gap was very narrow.
Normally, if these trees are close together, one of them will wither and die due to lack of nutrients, but perhaps because it is a forest where elves live, they seemed to grow very well even though they were close together.
The conclusion is that the arrangement of the tree is so exquisite that you have to move in Z without stopping to move by stepping on the branches. And like Giena said, it was obvious that if it moved like that, it wouldn’t be able to hold on for long and would collapse.
“Ha…”
“I can’t help but sigh at how far I walked. “You bitch.”
“Kya?!”
A third lump appeared on Siron’s forehead.
But what are you flying?
“Excuse me…”
As she was blowing air on the forehead of a crying Shiron, Tania, who had been quietly following her, approached her.
“Why? “Where are you feeling uncomfortable?”
“Oh, no. That’s not it, I think I can help you a little…”
“Help? Like what?”
“Uh, well, wait a minute…”
As everyone’s eyes turned to her, Tania walked up to the tree next to her and stretched out her hand. She then closed her eyes as if in prayer and placed her forehead against the tree.
Spabababat-!!
At the same time as the sound of leaves shaking, shadows began to tangle beneath the floor.
Patter.
“Hey?!”
In the rain of all kinds of bugs falling from the sky, I swallowed the screams that tried to jump out like a girl and quickly hid her head under Nyaho’s chest.
“Mr. Seobang?”
“… Okay, are you done?”
Nyaho gently stroked the back of my head, then gently cupped my cheeks with both her hands and lifted them up.
“It’s okay now.”
“Phew…”
Hehe, you’re afraid of bugs. “You’re cute.”
“Ugh.”
Nyaho smiled brightly and hugged my face to her chest once again.
“Stop and look at that.”
“Wow?!”
I was resting on Nyaho’s chest, which was soft and full of pleasant body odor, when Shiron grabbed me by the back of my neck.
“Wow…”
As I placed my cheek against Siron’s relatively small chest, I couldn’t help but admire the change that occurred before my eyes.
‘Is this possible?’
Just a little while ago, the trees were holding their heads high, thinking they were the best, but they were bending their backs as if they had been hit by someone.
To put it simply, these guys ┃ bent like ⊂ ⊃ and created one long passage.
“Well, maybe it helped a little… ?”
Tania came closer and wiggled her fingers and asked me that question. I hugged her waist and stamped her lips firmly on my forehead.
“Good job!! But are you okay? “Aren’t you tired or something?”
“Ah, yes, yes… Since I was just asking a favor, I didn’t actually use much power…”
“Thank god. And thank you.”
“I’m glad it helped…”
I stroked Tania’s head and let her go.
“As expected, Siran. “I guess you thought about this situation when you asked to take Tania.”
“Uh? Uh, well, right… ?”
There is one common behavior I see when my lovers lie to me. Just avoid eye contact. And now Siran just avoided my gaze.
“Lie…”
Wow!!
Siron fell backwards with a refreshing sound. It seemed difficult to get up right away this time.
“Anyway, I’ll definitely get a beating for saying useless things.”
Siran came over and placed the sagging Siron on his side.
“Come on.”
“Ah, yep.”
Unlike Shiron, Shiran gently hugged my waist and made me feel comfortable with her soft chest cushion.
“You two, come here too.”
The older sister, who was still walking yawning, put Nyaho and Tania on her side.
“Oh, well, it doesn’t lead all the way to the destination, so I have to ask again along the way.”
“That’s right.”
Si Ran nodded her head and winked at me.
-Whisk!
Gienna whistled, and the sound of a bird flying in the distance could be heard like an echo.
“Then we will leave.”
**
The sky has already begun to turn scarlet.
With Tania’s help, we were able to save a lot of time and soon arrive at our destination, which we had originally planned to arrive at early morning.
“For a moment.”
At Siran’s signal, Giena and her sister, who were running ahead, slowly slowed down.
“Why?”
When I asked, my sister pointed to the left and said,
“Three people a little distance away.”
“These are probably children who came out to hunt or gather. “It’s proof that we’re close to the base.”
“What do you want to do?”
My sister asked me as she put me down on the floor, and after thinking for a moment, I answered.
“Can you bring me here?”
“Okay.”
Wow.
“Right pole… ?”
Siran threw away Siron, who was holding her side, and Siron, who had been dozing comfortably in the world, ended up hitting her face on the floor.
Phew-!!
After throwing Siran away, a small wind blew and Siran disappeared. And only a few minutes later.
Toouk.
Three elves with protruding backs of their heads were brought in front of me.
I wasn’t too worried about the three lying motionless. Because Siran must have skillfully controlled his strength. Instead, my interests were directed elsewhere.
‘Are you young?’
First of all, if you look at their height when lying face down, all three were similar to Siron. This means that it is definitely not the height of a child.
“Giena.”
“Yes.”
When I called, Gienna came next to me.
“Are these children?”
“That’s right.”
“… “It doesn’t look like that at all?”
I guess I overlooked the differences that arose from racial differences. When I think about it again, by the standards of elves, whose lifespan is incomparably longer than that of humans, twenty or thirty years old may be considered children.
“I’ll tell you how to tell them apart easily.”
“No, not really…”
She tried to stop me because she didn’t need to worry too much if I was outside the category of a child she thought of.
“If you look here.”
It was even faster for Ki-na to get to the side of the three stunned people and turn her over. And I had no choice but to recognize the three elves as children.
“Children are still growing, so their breasts are poorly developed.”
Three elves.
Their hearts were too weak to be called elves.
