NOVEL NEXT I saw a river made of wooden monsters.
As Abar-san said, it is small, but the water is flowing firmly.
Looking upstream, there was a hole in the wall, and there was water coming out of it.
I stopped by the wall wondering where it was leading.
"Ivy, watch out for monsters that might come out with the water."
What, does that happen?
I hurried away from the wall and looked at Abar-san.
Didn't you know?
"Yes, but isn't this river too deep or too wide?"
Looking at Abar-san, he shook his head to the side.
"There are many new and yet to be discovered monsters in the cave." It doesn't necessarily mean that even a small river can live without aggressive monsters. "
Sure, yeah.
It doesn't matter what happens in the cave.
"Pu..."
Ah, Sora!
I turned to my father's voice and found Sora rolling in a small river.
Sora!
Why is it running in such a small river!
"Nyaaaaaaaaaaaaah!"
Ciel, resting by the river, reacts quickly and rescues Sora from the water.
Plump, plump, plump
When Sora saw Shell and squeaked, Shell licked Sora and Pelod.
"Good. Sora, are you okay?"
Plump, plump, plump
Slowly stroking Shell's head as she gently strokes the jumping sora.
"Thank you, Shell."
"Nyaaaaaaaaaaaaah!"
Stroke Ciel's head again, then search for Flem and Sol.
You've never been swamped by a river like Sora, but where are you?
He's over there.
When I saw him pointing, I saw Flem, Sol, and Tron in the back.
“What are you doing?”
You're looking at the river, aren't you?
Looks like it, but really?
I stood gently beside him and looked at the three of them.
"I'm sleeping."
I didn't expect everyone to sleep side by side.
Sleeping? I'd like to see it, but will I wake up when I get close?
Abar-san gently approached the Flems.
And when she saw the three of them, she laughed happily.
"You're asleep. You don't have to be vigilant about me, do you?"
If you're alert, you'll wake up.
... you're awake, aren't you?
Look at the three animals.
Maybe Abar won't wake up because he thinks he can be trusted.
Did Abal know that he was soliciting Ariel and the others?
Dad starts preparing tea with a simple table.
"Before I got here, the chief of the regiment told me."
I see.
"This, together"
"It's handmade by my wife, but the sauce is good inside, so go ahead."
I have a wife.
Moreover, it is handmade.
Thank you.
White dumplings are bite-sized.
When I put it in my mouth and chewed it, the sweet sauce overflowed from inside.
The sweetness is gentle and delicious.
Reaching for the second dumpling, I looked behind me.
Gabari-san and Arielus-san are in the space where the magic circle was.
And we're discussing the future.
My father and I were separated from them because of the organization involved.
As expected, we're not supposed to hear about the organization from outsiders.
"It's okay."
Abar-san patted me on the shoulder.
That's right.
Father asked the head of the Gabari delegation when he was away from Mr. Arielus.
Respect the decisions of the three people and keep them even if they do not join the organization.
Gabari-san nodded vigorously, "Of course," so I'm sure he won't let the three of them get away with it.
I get a little sleepy when I listen to the sound of the river flowing slowly.
Yesterday, I was able to sleep properly because of a lot of things.
"Puah!"
I turned my attention to Sora's voice and saw it resting on the branches of a tree monster.
By the way, I forgot it was too quiet, but the wooden monster was here with me.
I saw a tree monster.
If you're jerking off, you'll only look like a real person.
"Giggle"
A tree monster that crows in response to Sora.
Giggle?
Toron woke up to the voice of the wooden monster, and made a sleepy sound.
"Puppy"
Sora stretched her body vertically and horizontally, enveloping the branches of the tree monster.
It's the second time today.
Yeah.
While Gabari-san was speaking, Sora was healing the monster of the tree.
But it was the second time since yesterday.
But the black discoloration didn't go back to normal.
A wooden monster consoling Sora and her sadness at the sight of it.
I was talking about something with the two of them, but maybe I promised to treat them again.
I hope you can treat it properly.
Yeah.
Sora is doing all she can, so I need you to get her back.
"Please wait ~"
Looking at Lilia's cheerful voice, she rushed towards us with a refreshing expression.
It looks like you've had a good conversation.
Nodding to your father's words.
I don't know what we talked about, but not only Leah, but Arielus and the others had bright faces.
All three seem to be satisfied, so a smile flashes.
It looks like you've had a good conversation.
"That's right."
Lilia smiled happily, as did her father.
"Arielus and the others are going to join the organization."
The three nodded to the words of Mr. Gabari.
I see. Don't push yourself.
Arielus and the others bowed their heads to his father's words.
"After the problem is solved, I will officially enter the organization and learn how to fight." So, next time, we decided to be on the side of protecting it. "
Defend it from the defended side.
It's kind of cool.
"Pupu!"
Sora panicked as she shouted so loudly that it echoed in the cave.
Did something happen during the treatment?
What's the matter?
I ran to the wooden monster and looked at Sora.
Sora seemed quite excited on the branches of the wooden monster.
"Plump, plump, plump, plump, plump!"
I want to tell you something, but I don't know.
I thought something had happened to the tree monster, but it didn't look any different.
"Oh, Ivy, the black discoloration is gone."
Plump, plump, plump
Sora answers her father's voice with joy.
Oh, I mean, you wanted to tell me that the treatment worked.
I saw the branches of the black discolored part of the tree monster.
The part that was black until a little while ago has completely disappeared.
"Congratulations, Sora. It's amazing, it's completely healed."
"Puffy-puffy-puffy-puffy-puffy-puffy"
Sora jumps around me excitedly.
And this time, I don't know what you want to tell me.
I want you to calm down a little bit, but I'm so happy that I can keep it down.
Packing.
Baba.
Pacon.
”Puuu!”
Somehow the branches fell on Sora.
When I saw the wooden monster, I turned my gaze away.
Huh?
Did you deliberately drop the branches?
Did you deliberately drop it on Sora?
The trees sway in my words.
I feel like I'm in a hurry.
Did you fail and fall on Sora?
"Giggle"
I failed and fell on Sora.
That might be great.
"Giggle"
The monster's gaze turned to the branches that fell to the ground.
When Dad picked up the branch, he gave a slightly surprised look.
What's the matter?
"Maybe this is black honey."
Black honey?
The branch that my father showed me was full of black, round objects about the size of the tip of his little finger.
"This is black nectar."
Mr. Abar stares at the branches with interest.
He seems to know what black honey is.
"It will enhance the effect of the potion." It seems that it would be good to drink it with the potions. "
That's right.
... if you increase the effect of Sora and Flem's potions, it's going to be a terrific thing.
