Dark Knight Story

Episode 10 Forest where elves live

　"Damn, i can't believe that This Rausu-sama will meet me like this..." It's going to be putea soon."

　Rausu complains while walking through the woods.

　Rausu, a traveling merchant, ran into the forest for business to the Kingdom of Putea, and when he was walking along the streets, he encountered goblins and fled to the forest.

　Goblins are not good at bright places, but the branches of the forest darkened the road, so they came out in the daytime.

　What are the knights of Putea doing?

　Rausu wants to say one of his complaints

　Knights should do their job to protect the outside of the city walls, such as the streets. It is neglectof duty such as such a Monster comes out.

　Rausu got angry but nothing.

　"Where is this place, I don't think we're that far from the highway..."

　The forest is the realm of Monsters.

　They could also be attacked by goblin-like Monsters.

　We have to get back to the highway quickly. More Monsters will come out at night.

　By then, I had to enter a city with walls.

　Rausu keeps walking.

　However, it was not possible to return to the highway no matter how it walked.

　Rausu was completely lost.

　"You're thirsty..."

　My throat is full because I ran with all my might when I ran away from the goblin.

　"But what happened when you stopped chasing suddenly?"

　Goblins have short legs but fast feet.

　It was a miracle that Rausu, who was over 40 years old, ran away.

　But I think Rausu would be so good.

　Because his life was saved, Rausu keeps walking out of the woods.

　"Song..."

　I hear a song when I'm walking.

　Rausu walks to the one who can hear the song in doubt.

　After walking for a while, there was a big spring.

　"It's the water that saved me!" What? "

　Rausu makes a surprise voice involuntarily.

　The reason is that there was a who put the lower body in the water in the middle of the spring.

　The woman is singing as if she didn't realize Rausu.

　She was a beautiful woman. Rausuha I'm involuntarily amazed.

　The song seemed to be sung by the woman.

　Rausu approaches to be attracted.

　"Is someone there?"

　Did you notice the sign of Rausu, beautiful woman looks at here.

　"Mo!　I'm sorry!　I didn't mean to peek!　I just heard a beautiful singing voice.

　Rausu makes a haste excuse.

　"No, I'm sorry I was bathing in a place like this. Why don't you bathe with us?"

　The beautiful woman smiles without concealing the nakedness.

　When Rausu sees that smile, he can't think of anything like he had a sputve on his head.

　"No, it's ridiculous to bathe with a beautiful person like you!"　But I'm thirsty, so if you could just let me drink some water..."

　"Is that so? This spring belongs to noone. I think it would be good if you could drink freely."

　"Is that so? Don't hesitate to do so."

　It might be good because the beautiful woman says please.

　Rausu approaches the fountain without questioning.

　I couldn't take my eyes off the beautiful woman.

(What a beautiful woman to say. Good luck. I want to see it closer. After all, I've been drinking water, I can't help getting close, I'm just thirsty.)

　Rausu approaches the fountain thinking so.

　The beautiful woman is smiling.

　When i come to the fountain, I bend down. However, the glance is keeping an eye on the beautiful woman.

　It is included in the mouth when the water of the spring is watered with the hand. Is it because the beautiful woman who felt the water felt so sweet is soaked?

　Rausu tries to take another sip. However, there is an incident in the body.

　"The body..."

　Rausu whispers.

　My body is numb and my hands are not moving. Then, it finally looks into the spring.

　"What...!!"

　There was a huge beast's face in the fountain. Their eyes are looking at Rausu.

　The moment I see the animal's eyes, the rose in my head clears up.

(Yes, why is there such a beautiful woman in such a place?) In a forest full of Monsters like this? Why didn't you notice such an anomaly? )

　Rausu forcibly makes a numb body and sees the face of the beautiful woman.

　The beautiful woman is laughing happily.

　The head of the beast comes out of the spring. The beast opens its mouth wide.

　"Oh..."

　Rausu got out of here anymore.

　The beast opens its big mouth.

　And Rausu was swallowed by the beast's mouth.

　◆

　"I didn't even let it in today after all..."

　Kuroki whispers.

　A month out of Nalgol. I was not able to enter the city which I had stopped by a while ago.

　Kuroki continues to travel to the Holy Lenaria Republic, where Reiji and others are.

　There's a long way from Nalgol to the Republic of St. Lenaria, but this world's Kuroki can travel faster than horses. We've already traveled more than two-thirds of the way to our destination.

　Kuroki was not measured, but it would have been more than 200 kilometers per hour.

　Kuroki in this world is a superhuman.

　In Kuroki's memory, Reiji and others were also moving superhumanly in the video.

　That's why I guess the people of the world that Kuroki was based on would become superhumans when they come to this world.

　Kuroki has seen how the people of this world live while traveling in the land where humans live.

　The country of man in this world is not a face but a point.

　There are countless city states like ancient Greece.

　And outside the city is not the world of people, it is a magic that a lot of Monsters surpass.

　Humans build walls and live only in and around the city.

　And, the city and the city are connected by the road.

　City-states are small things like villages, and some have huge city-states with satellite cities.

　There are various political bodies, too, and there are differences in the royal system or the republic.

　It's the difference between whether the mayor is hereditary or elected.

　In addition, there is a nation where not only the mayor but also the second chief and the section chief class are hereditary in the royal system, and there is a nation that only the mayor is hereditary. Of course, there is a nation with aristocrats in the nation of the republic, too.

　Religion is still the gods of Elios.

　According to Kuroki's told by The Year, there are people who don't believe in the gods of Elios, but they are called barbarians.

　By the way, the city that Kuroki stopped by a while ago is a city-state with a population of about 3,000 people called Putea Kingdom.

　However, it is only about 3,000 people who have citizenship, and the population will increase further if the person who does not have citizenship is included.

　A citizen of a city state who has citizenship is a national of the city state, and the person who does not have citizenship is a foreigner.

　Therefore, those who do not have citizenship are not easily allowed into the city walls.

　Then, what should we do with the distribution? Establish a treaty between nations and free the entry of persons who have citizenship from each other's countries. By concluding multiple such treaties, we will free the traffic of people.

　Of course, there is a closed nation of the fullself-self-sufficiency economy which does not conclude the treaty at all.

　By the way, Kuroki, who does not have any citizenship, was unable to enter most city-states by formal means.

　In that case, how have you been eating and drinking up to now?

　First of all, there was a lot of food in the forest, and fruits such as pomegranate were all-you-can-eat.

　There are many other fruits. If there were no Monsters, ordinary people could have lived here.

　When I wanted cooked food, I had no choice but to go into the city walls.

　Kuroki recalls sneaking in with the magic of flying and apologizing to the shopkeeper and eating meat skewers.

　The edible meat sown in this world is sheep and pigs, and they don't eat beef.

　Kuroki ate mutton.

　Mutton has a smell, but it was delicious without smell whether it used a lot of herbs.

　"So what do you do today?"

　Kuroki asks Nut, a travel companion.

　"Do you enter the magic of hiding in some country?"

　The magic of the hide form is the magic that erases its presence, and if you activate the magic, the person will not notice.

　The magic of the most hidden form does not work for those who have the ability of the detection system or the person who uses the magic of the detection system, and the magic of the hidden form is dispelled once it is recognized.

　Kuroki used the magic and invaded the human country many times.

　"No, let's not do this time, reiji's information was pretty much the same."

　Collecting information about Reiji is the purpose of Kuroki's journey.

　That's why Kuroki is heading to the Holy Lenaria Republic through the city where Reiji and others stopped.

　All of the Reiji's stories that Kuroki heard were similar.

　Reiji, the hero of light, is the hope of the people.

　The people in this world are very weak.

　They are prey to Monsters

　In such a world, Reiji seems to be saving people by overthrowing a lot of Monsters.

　So many people have been grateful.

　However, there are some people who are damaged.

　Many of them are related to women.

　Reiji is getting with a pretty girl wherever she goes.

　Some of them are girls and married women who have lovers.

　Therefore, some men are hostile to Reiji.

　However, it is very popular with women.

　There are many girls who praise Reiji, the hero of light.

　Such information is all about every country.

　I didn't want to hear reiji's love romance any more.

　That's why Kuroki decided that the information of Reiji would not change in particular when it entered the Kingdom of Putea.

　Kuroki thinks it's OK to go too far.

　And it was when I walked for a while.

　I can hear a song from the depths of the forest.

　"Song..."

　Kuroki wonders.

　This is in the forest where Monsters live, and it was abnormal that there was a person who sang in such a place.

　"beautiful voice..."

　Nut seems to have no doubts.

　"Mr. Kuroki. Why don't you go? "

　Nut says he went to the voice.

　Nut was a bit weird.

　It seems that this is what happened by hearing this song.

　"Okay, let's go."

　Kuroki also wanted to see the Lord of this song.

　After walking for a while, i found a big spring in the place where the forest opened.

　In the middle of the spring, there was a with her lower body attached to the fountain, the song seems to be sung by this woman.

　"Who is there?"

　See how the women noticed Kuroki and others.

　"Oh, I'm sorry to disturb you from singing. I was wondering who was singing."

　Kuroki bows his head. I was really interested in it, so I was glad to see it, thanks to that, I was able to see something unusual.

　"No, don't worry about it. Why don't you take a bath with us? "

　"No, thank you. We will leave as it is. Keep singing."

　Kuroki tries to leave as it is.

　"Kuroki. Because there is clean water. Let's camp here.? "

　Nut wants to stay here.

　"Nut. You cannot drink the water of this spring. Contains poison"

　"What poison!!?" "

　Nut is surprised.

　The water of this spring contains magic poison. It's probably a way to paralyze your body.

　"That's such a poison..." Why don't you take it a little more slowly?"

　Women say.

　Kuroki makes that word a little uncomfortable.

　This woman sees Kuroki as a predatory target.

　Kuroki has become sensitive to hostility since he came to this world.

　Even if you are tens of meters away, you can notice it if you are hostile. Lugas seems to be capable of sensing enemies, but it doesn't feel very good to be exposed to unpleasant glances.

　In addition, this woman has been using the magic of fascinated by Kuroki s since a while ago.

　That's also a cause of discomfort. Perhaps the song had a similar effect, Kuroki determines that it must have been the cause of The Factthat.

(Perhaps this woman is a Monster, she looks beautiful, but she doesn't feel anything.)

　The woman in front of Kuroki's upper body is naked. The usual Kuroki will look good.

　However, it did not become so.

　Kuroki is presumed to be a monster that preys on prey that has been misled and approached by songs and human-like appearances.

　Of course Kuroki is not going to be eaten. But I didn't even feel like fighting this Monster.

　Kuroki wants to leave peacefully.

(I want you to let me go as it is)

　Kuroki threatens not to turn any more hostility. On the way, he was often targeted by Monsters, but if he threatened him, most of the Monsters ran away.

　However, the prediction is aimed at the enemy to Kuroki more.

　"Enemy!!"

　When a woman's face turns into anger, a giant beast's head suddenly comes out of the fountain. There are six animal heads, and they stretch their necks and attack them.

(Oh! You didn't give up eating me! And faster than expected)

　The head of the beast approaches in front of Kuroki.

　"Ha!!"

　Kuroki slashes off one of them when he avoids the head of the beast while pulling out the sword.

　"Guuuu!　Yahu Sathing!! "

　The woman has an expression of anguish on her face. There is no grace like the one before on the face.

　"This is also a great place to live!!! "

　The water of the spring becomes a big mass and floats in the air.

　"Water Splash!"

　When the Monster shouts, a large mass of water shatters and heads to Kuroki.

　"Magic Shield!"

　Kuroki casts the magic of defense.

　A circular spell shining in front appears, and the splash of water is blocked.

　The splash of water stops, and the Monster rises on land.

　The lower body hidden by the fountain of Monsters is exposed under the sun. The upper body is a human woman, and the head of six huge beasts and several tentacles are whispered in the lower body.

　The figure was very ugly.

　The Monster approaches Kuroki.

　It's not fast, it probably won't move fast on land.

　"Nut. Are you alright?"

　"Yes. But it seems to turn my eyes."

　Nut is confused by sudden deployment.

　"Nut. Go down behind"

　Kuroki takes The Year down to the ground. Then, The Tatosis goes backwards.

　"Oh, one of my heads was cut off!!"

　The Monster is looking at Kuroki with angry eyes.

　Black blood is spilling to the ground from the place where the head was cut off. White smoke is coming from the ground where black blood has flowed. The plants around the area where blood has fallen are dying.

　There must be poison in the blood of Monsters.

　Kuroki will be temporarily saved if he runs away because it doesn't seem to be able to move fast. However, I felt that if I left it from the appearance of the Monster, i would follow him to any extent.

　It was a bit of a hassle for Kuroki.

　"Yahu Same- "

　When a Monster shouts, Kuroki attacks the beast's head and tentacles.

　Kuroki rotates his body and jumps up when he cuts down the beast's head, two and the tentacles.

　"Idiot!!"

　The voice of the surprise of the Monster.

　Kuroki jumps into the upper body of the Monster as it is, and cuts through the body of the Monster wielding a sword.

　And, it lands behind the Monster as it is.

　"No... That's stupid.... "

　The Monster falls down as it is.

　The Monster looks up his head and sees Kuroki.

　"So... Oh I see??? When...... You're a god. I thought Yahu. Oh, my So... Failure..."

　When a Monster says that, it collapses.

　"It's not a god , but..."

　Kuroki whispers.

　Kuroki doesn't think of himself as a god.

　But I didn't even want to correct my mistake.

　The Monster shrinks while raising the white smoke.

　"Kuroki-sama. You okay?"

　Nut runs to Kuroki's side.

　"It's a Monster I've never seen before, and it's a pretty tough enemy."

　Kuroki had seen only ogres and goblins on the road, and he had never seen any such Monsters.

　"Oh……. I've never seen this Monster before"

　"I've never seen Nut. It is probably a rare Monster. Let's ask someone else about this Monster."

　Kuroki sees the trees in the forest behind him.

　There was a person who was looking at Kuroki us. I can't feel any hostility from that line of sight.

　It's not a goblin or an Orc. Kuroki wonders who he is.

　"Is there anyone there?"

　When Kuroki calls, a girl emerges from the shadow of a tree.

　When she was 19,000 years old, she was a beautiful girl with white skin and blue hair, probably about the same or a little below Kuroki.

(Eh? Why? Is there a girl like this in this place? Is this girl a Monster like the Monster of the other day? )

　Kuroki questions, but she didn't feel any hostility from the girl, and her gaze was not as offensive as the Monster.

　"Kuroki. That ’s the Dryad Elf"

　"Is that girl an elf? Really? "

　Because Lugas taught me, Kuroki knew about the elves.

　If you look closely, your ears are stretching long as they were taught as a feature of the Elves.

　The Elves are far longer than humans and have only women. In addition, all of the Elves are the master of the spirit magic and are much stronger than the average human race, so they can live without relying on the walls even in the forest with many Monsters.

　Among them, the Dryad clan is called the Wood Elf and lives in the forest.

　Some Dryad seems to fall in love with human youth and often fall in love with them.

　Kuroki sees her. She is a beautiful girl. It is not the appearance of the lie like the Monster of the previous.

(If she is to be cursed, the human youth will not feel bad either. Well, it's none of my business, but why are you looking at me for a while? I wonder what I have to do.)

　Kuroki smiles at the elves with a smile to keep her from scaresing her.

　"That... Are you gods? "

　The girl of the elves asks naturally.

　"No, do you think i'm human?"

　Kuroki answers in question form.

　Kuroki was actually a little worried. I wonder if people who correspond to people in this world can be thought of as the same as the people in the world where Kuroki was based.

　Because Kuroki has far more superhuman power than the humanbeings of this world, it's the same with Reiji. It might have been a different race just because the appearance was the same.

　"Lying, we can defeat Scylla, even we're no match for him. Isn't that really God?"

　"No, it's definitely not God..."

　Kuroki is not so big that it is called God. So deny.

　"That's right."

　The girl approaches Kuroki. And when i come in front of you, I look from top to bottom.

　"Hmm, by the way, who are you?"　Why are you here? "

　The girl's face comes up to me.

　Kuroki moves to the girl's eyes. Kuroki looks away involuntarily.

　In the original world, Kuroki has never been so close to a girl other than Shirone, so Kuroki gets excited.

　"I..." No, I'm just a traveling person. I'm looking for a place to sleep."

　Kuroki answers in a sloppy way.

　"Isn't that going into a human home?" "Yes..." There's a little bit of a reason..."

　"Hmm, then I have nowhere to go. Hey why don't you come to my house?"

　"What!?"

　Kuroki is surprised. The elves say they fall in love with young humans, but they hear that they are not friendly to people other than lovers.

　Kuroki sees the girl. I can't feel any hostility. The glance was not unpleasant though it was painful.

　"Can I give it a favor?"

　Kuroki receives the offer. I was obediently succumbed to curiosity. I was interested in the life of the elves.

　"Yeah, that's fine."

　The girl of the elves laughs brightly and guides her into the forest.

　"You seem to like it"

　Nut laughs.

　"Don't make fun. Nut"

　Certainly Kuroki felt a kind of favor from the girl.

　Kuroki thinks it's probably because he defeated Scylla. That Monster was about to attack the elves.

　The girl walks as it is.

　After walking for a while, there was an incident in the surrounding scenery.

　"Yeah?　What the hell is this?"

　Kuroki's eyes look like ordinary forests. But something was different.

　"That's great, I noticed the barrier."

　"The barrier? "

　"Yes, there is a magic that drives the senses of the people who enter. So follow me."

　The girl walks as it is.

　And, it reaches a big tree.

　It was a very big tree. Several houses are attached to the branches of the tree.

　Kuroki thinks it's a big deal to look at. It was a tree house that I had seen on TV.

　Kuroki actually has a little admiration for this kind of house. It's like a secret base.

　"This is my house. It's a treat."

　The girl says with a big smile.

　"Tess!"

　Suddenly there is a voice from above. One woman comes out from the tree house when the voice is seen.

　It is a woman of the feeling that the girl of the elves is a little older. The woman comes down from the house.

　"Ah Mom!　I am back!! "

　Kuroki is surprised by the word mother. I thought it was your sister.

(It's true that elves don't get old.)

　Kuroki recalls The Lugas class.

　"Tess!　I'm not home. Where have you been?　And then..."

　The girl's mother looks at me.

　"What the hell is this?"

　The girl's mother stares at me.

　The girl's mother is as beautiful as a girl. I feel restless when I see it so much.

　"Mom!　This guy is amazing!　I beat that Scylla!!"

　The girl clings to Kuroki's arm and introduces it.

　The girl's soft body sticks to Kuroki's body.

　The volume is not enough but it feels good.

　"Scylla... Is that the scylla of the spring?"

　The girl's mother's gaze moves from bottom to top.

　"Not much... It doesn't look strong."

　Kuroki is going to be broken by the word.

　"Mom! That's rude!!"

　A girl protests against her mother.

　"Well, I'm sorry. Nice to meet you, man's lord. I Davia in the Hardy Forest. She's the mother of Tess there."

　A mother who calls herself Davia bows to Kuroki.

　"Yes, I am..." My name is Kuro. I'm on my way."

　Kuroki is lost and says a pseudonym. It was good to have a real name, but there was a possibility that the name could be transmitted to Shirone and others at some time. Therefore, I did not want to use my real name as much as possible.

　"Mom. Even if Kuro is on his journey, you can put it in the house."

　Tess tries to enter the house without having to take his mother's consent.

　"That Tess-san..."

　Kuroki tries to say that it is not necessary to take mother's consent.

　"I can't help it. Please come to my house, Mr. Kuro."

　However, it enters the house easily.

(Is it easy to put a man who honestly doesn't know? Or is it that kind of culture? )

　According to Lugas, the Elves should not be so human-friendly. Lugas's knowledge may also be wrong.

　Tess's house is on a big tree. There were no ladders or stairs to climb there.

　How do you climb it? I wondered, Tess arrives easily when it flies softly. Apparently, this height is not a problem for the elf who can use the spirit magic.

　"Come and see Kuro too!"　You can fly! "

　Tess laughs carefreely.

　Certainly this height is nothing of an obstacle to Kuroki.

　I'm also interested in the tree house, and I think I'll go in because of my mother's consent.

　Kuroki gets excited to fly and arrives at the tree house.

　And I think it's a big deal to look at the tree house.

　This tree house is not built on a tree. A tree house is made of a tree, and the tree swells and it becomes a house. It was a strange house.

　It was made firmly except when i went inside and looked at it. In the room was not a fire, but a light of the spirit of light. In the world of the person i saw, the life of the elves might have used magic more when thinking that the lighting was torches or oil.

　When you look around, the furnishings are also splendid, and they are completely different from the human world. Magic seemed to be used everywhere else.

　The elf's dwelling looks primitive at first glance, but Kuroki thinks it looks much more comfortable than the people's residences in this world.

　Because of the magic, this world is developed in a sense than the original world.

　If the original world was also a world where magic could be used, the development of civilization might have become such.

　"Mr. Kuro, please sit here. I'm going to make tea now, aren't I? Tess, help me."

　"Hai"

　Davia and Tess walk back to the tree house.

(Do you live here just for two people?)

　Kuroki determines that these two people seem to be the only ones living in this tree house.

　There is no elf sign nearby.

　After a while, two people come back to Kuroki. There was tea and food on the wooden tray.

　They arrange tea and food at the table in front of the chair where I sat.

　The tea smelled good with a clear red color. The food is one big flat bread, a soup with carrot-like vegetables cut into slices and stewed in an earthenware pot with cabbage-like vegetables, and then a cake with dried fruit.

　Kuroki leans on her self involuntarily.

　It's been a long time since I left Nalgol and had a decent meal.

　"Please, Mr. Kuro."

　Kuroki includes tea in his mouth. It was the first time the taste, but very delicious.

　They have a mouthful of vegetables To be honest, it's a little light, but I haven't eaten anything so good before, so it feels very delicious.

　"I'm smits."

　Davia asks Kuroki.

　"No, I haven't been able to eat a decent meal until now. It's very delicious."

　The elves treat Me more of Kuroki than humans.

　The immigration officer, the gatekeeper of the Putea kingdom, treated Kuroki away like a suspicious person. Kuroki reminds me of that and feels complicated.

　I was so moved that Tess and i was so moved to tears that they were entertaining me.

　"Yes, please eat more and more."

　Davia recommends a meal.

　Kuroki eats a decent meal after a long time.

　Tess was smiling at Such Kuroki.

　◆

　"It's been a long time since I've had a decent bed."

　Late at night, Kuroki is guided to the bedroom.

　"This situation is a bit strange. I'm not very familiar with elves, but why are you so entertained? There is no ordinary."

　Kuroki agrees with Nut's questions.

　I just met for the first time today. I stopped by the human city several times, but everyone was cold. Why is the elves of other races so gentle?

　And I hear that elves are rarely in love with young humans, but they are basically not friendly to humans.

　"But Nut. I don't feel much hostility from her"

　Kuroki felt no hostility from the girl who called herself Testes. I'd rather feel the favor.

　"Maybe you ’re using the magic of a spirit? "

　"I don't think it's disgusting..."

　Kuroki affirms.　

　Because Nut is normal.

　If you're magical, Nut will be as crazy as Monster's.

　Unless Kuroki was only enchanted, Tess sees Nut talking. You should have noticed that there is human-like wisdom.

　"But maybe there's something about it. Maybe you have something to ask me for.

　Kuroki doesn't know what it is. However, I think that the favor of one lodging one meal should be returned as much as possible.

　"Request?"

　"She's watching me beat Scylla. Maybe you'd like to ask me to get rid of some other Monster."

　"I'm convinced. Then it's good"

　Kuroki and Nut are convinced, so let's go to bed.

　Kuroki goes to bed. Kuroki is amazed by his softness.

　"Wow, there wasn't any soft bed like this in the original world."

　Kuroki has never slept in a high-end duvet in the original world, but I think it might be more than that.

　Kuroki thankes Tess for his hospitality.

　Tess also carefully prepared a bed for Nut.

　"Goodnight.Nut."

　"Good night"

　It is a proper bed after a long time. It feels very good and smells good from the bed.

　I had never slept properly along the way. I'm very sleepy because I'm probably a little tired because of that.

　Kuroki felt consciousness fall ingintothely into the darkness.

　◆

　Tess sees his father's face in his parents' bedroom.

　"Kuro-den seems to have gone to bed, Tess."

　I was going to see Kuro,' Tess' mother, Davia, came back.

　"Did you report it to your father?"

　"Yes, Mom."

　Tess reported Kuro to his father a while ago.

　My father is sleeping on the bed where Tess is sitting.

　My father slept long before Tess was born.

　Tess thinks that it is beautiful because mother fell in love.

(Of course, Kuro didn't lose either.)

　Tess laughs when he recalls Kuro.

　His father had been asleep since Tess was conscious of it. I've never seen him wake up.

　Tess's father is a man.

　There are only women in the elves.

　A woman born from an elf becomes an elf, and a man born from an elf is born as a race like his father.

　Most of them are human beings because they don't want to be with ugly goblins or augers.

　I hear that Tess has an older brother and a younger brother, but he was born in according with the custom and left it in a human residence as soon as he was born.

　The two brothers of Tess will still live in the home of a human being.

　In addition, the elves who fell in love are constantly rowing with human women in order to make a human man a loving companion.

　When Tess's mother, Davia, cursed her father and made him a companion, she seemed to have licked him with a human being. The father became the thing of mother Davia because mother was not sure to lose to the weak man woman who was the most ugly and cannot use magic.

　However, Since Tess's father is a short-lived man, he dies as soon as he does normally.

　If you use magic that only the Queen of Elfs can use, a human can have the same life expectancy as an elf, but if you are not qualified to become a fairy knight, the Queen will not use magic on him.

　Then, the life is extended by applying the magic of the stagnation in general by applying the magic of sleep.

　The magical father continues to sleep and is still sleeping in bed.

　The sleeping father is not dead and alive, and the physiological function of the body is alive and well, so the child can be made in the state of sleeping.

　When you want to have a conversation, you enter the dream of your father who is sleeping with magic and have a conversation. Tess still has reported to his father in his dreams that he met Kuro.

　"I looked at my sleeping face a little bit, but I was sleeping comfortably. It touched the heart a little, but it seems to be a gentle person. Your intuition is as good as mine."

　Tess whispers to mother's words.

　"Of course, it's the person I chose. When I saw Kuro for the first time, I felt fate."

　Tess felt fate when he saw Kuro in the fountain. And, I thought that I would make Kuro a companion.

　Tess was taught by his mother that intuition is important.

　It seems that the encounter of Tess's mother and father was like this. However, I hear that my mother was forced to do magic.

　If you ask mother Davia, it's no problem because the elves are more beautiful than being with an ugly human daughter.

　The same can be said to Kuro.

　That's why Kuro should be happier if he stayed here forever. It seems that I'm not a complete person because of Kuro's reaction.

(I'm better than Kuromo's daughter.)

　Tess laughs with a smile on her dreams of living with Kuro.

　"Then I'll go to Kuro's, Mom."

　Tess comes out of her parents' bedroom in stead with her mother Davia.

　Tess is going to have a conversation with Kuro in a dream.

(In a dream, it's basically defenseless.) You'll hear a lot of stories from Kuro.)

　Tess went to Kuro's sleeping bedroom.

　◆

　"Great place to stay"

　Kuroki says thank you to Testes and Davia.

　Tess is looking at it with sad eyes.

　Kuroki couldn't look at Tess's face.

(Well, what a shameful dream you had)?

　In a dream last night, Kuroki had become a sweet lover with Tess.

(It was a strangely realistic dream.)

　Kuroki felt like she had done something pretty embarrassing in her dream.

　"You're going to be gone."

　Davia also looks sad.

　"Excuse me, I have a place to go..."

　I was never asked to do anything by Tess or Davia.

　Kuroki thinks it was really just kindness.

　The only thing that bothers me is the morning. When I woke up in the morning, Tess was already awake. However, the appearance was a little funny than yesterday.

　Kuroki is a little worrisome.

　"Thank you very much. I'd like to return this thank you someday."

　Kuroki says so and tries to leave the treehouse.

　"Kuroki!!"

　It comes when Tess calls the name of Kuroki.

　"Tess? "

　"Kuroki...... We'll see each other again.

　There are tears in Tess's eyes.

　"Oh, I'm sure we'll see you again, Tess."

　Kuroki sifts Tess on the cheek.

　It was a shameful act for Kuroki, but it was better than in a dream.

　Kuroki breaks up with Tess many times, waving his hand.

　And, it notices when walking for a while.

　"Come to think of it, why did Tess know my real name?"

　◆

　"Was it good Tess?"

　Tess shakes his head at mother's words.

　"Because I can't help it..." I don't think I'm a person from a different world. I'm sure Kuroki has some role in this world. I can't hold it back.

　The night I spent in My Dreams with Kuroki was an important memory in Tess.

　Tess learned the identity of Kuroki in the dream.

(Kuroki's power was strong. My magic won't work for Kuroki.)

　That's why Tess couldn't make Kuroki their own.

　Tess sees off Kuroki's back.

　Kuroki looked back many times. At least they shouldn't have been hated.

　Tess thinks he might come and see me again.

　"Come and see me again, my gentle dark knight."

　That said, Tess saw off Kuroki.
