Chapter 44 Chapter VII

It was still early when we got back to the hotel.This is because we just got back from lunch.The sun was still high in the sky, Shan Sen and Ghisien ran to the backyard to get together again on the pretext of going to exercise after cooking.All the servants of the Unicorn Hotel also rushed to the backyard to watch the two of them compete.Carl stayed in our room, reading again, and I just sat in the hall. How boring!In broad daylight, a place like a hotel lobby is a place with little to do.Do you want to watch Shansen and Gishien fight?Alas, forget it.Do you want me to go out and explore the capital alone?Well, no.I don't have the confidence to find my way back here correctly.

From the backyard there was a lively clatter of swords clashing.clang clang!Clang!Clang!hum.Those two must have had a great time playing.The sounds of clapping, sighing, and admiring were mixed together, making it very noisy.Maybe the back alley has turned into an amphitheater or something again. "so boring……" I started scratching the table.Suddenly there was a creaking sound of the door opening.Has anyone come in?I looked at the door. There were three people standing at the door.Walking in front were two big men, and behind them was a well-dressed girl.At first glance, it looks like a noble lady and two warriors guarding her.Of course, no one would think of two men and the girl who guarded them!After thinking about it for a while, I almost burst out laughing.

The two men were both neatly dressed, with the exact same family crest painted on their scabbards.The girl seemed to be two or three years younger than me, but she was wearing a very gorgeous-looking outing outfit.How strange!A girl dressed so gorgeously shouldn't come to stay in a hotel.Although I don't know who asked her to travel, but under normal circumstances, this kind of person should write a letter to a relative or friend's family and entrust them to take care of her. The girl looked around the hall with an attitude, as if she was visiting a hotel for the first time in her life.She looked at the only person sitting in the hall.Of course, that's me.I also stared blankly at the girl.

She said something to one of the big guys next to her.The big man came up to me and said: "Little devil, are you working here?" "You really don't know how to look at people. If I were someone who worked here, I would have told you 'Welcome' a long time ago?" The big man looked at me in a panic.Out of the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of the girl smiling behind him.The big man said again: "Uh, is that so? What kind of hotel is this? The guests came, but no one came out to greet them? Then, I'm sorry, but I would like to ask. We heard that there is a delegation from the Hetante territory here. Accommodation, is it?"

"Embassy, ​​mission? Puff haha." When the big man saw me laughing so hard, he looked at me with a surprised expression.I wiped my tears and said: "Yes. Live here. Well, what do you want?" "Why are you asking that?" "Because I was also a member of that envoy." He stared at me fiercely. "You're so big and small. I don't want to talk to the stable boy or the servants! Go and ask your master to come out." "My master? Huh, okay. Please wait a moment. Hey, Xiu Qi! Someone is looking for you? Well, okay, I understand. Well, what can I do for you?"

The big man looked at me with a puzzled expression.I explained it to him. "Because my master is me." His face turned blue and red.I rubbed my ears and said: "It's like this. Although our group is a bit busy right now, we are not so busy that we can't see the guests. But no matter what, we should report the names of the guests and respectfully ask for a conversation. Only then can we meet happily!" He shook his fist and said: "Bastard! You are a servant, you don't know how to measure at all, you are shameless! Where did the etiquette go when you were in your hometown?"

"Really. I never said that I was a servant! Why do you insist on thinking that I am a servant? The girl behind you is younger than me! But I didn't think that girl was yours Maid. Do you think so?" ah ah!my mouth!I should have been more careful with what I said.When the big man heard my plausible words, he looked like he was about to be speechless.I think this is enough, so kindly say: "Please sit here and wait. I'll call our group out." The big man looked at me with flustered eyes, but I didn't pay much attention, so I went up to the second floor.Then I called Carl, and I went to the backyard and called the two guys who looked like they were fighting each other, and told them to come in.

After the "envoys from Hetante Territory" had assembled, the two big men and the young girl looked even more bewildered.Because, the members of the so-called envoys were actually a slightly old, middle-aged man with a chuckle, a warrior who looked like an ogre wearing human clothes, and a man with disheveled hair that should have a bird's nest on his head. teenager.Carl smiled and said: "I heard that you have something to look for us? I am Carl Hetante, the plenipotentiary agent of Hetante's territory." The big man hurriedly introduced the girl. "Ah, yes. This is Miss Ebolyn of the Harshtel family."

Harshtel?oops? Aiboline silently made a staring salute, and sat down in front of Carl, and two big men stood behind Aiboline.Hmm, should Shan Sen and I also stand behind Carl?Alas, forget it.Leaving the entire conversation to Carl, we decided to take an irrelevant stance.So I, Shan Sen and Ghisien retreated to a table a little distance away, sat and drank beer together, and watched them talk.Shan Sen and Ghisien seem to want to discuss the moves they learned not long ago, with a very absent-minded expression, but the two of them still shut up quietly, not to hinder the conversation. Karl said:

"You said you were from the Harshtel family..." Ebolyn spoke in a very elegant tone, as if she was a lady who knew the rules of etiquette.All of a sudden I miss Jemini so much. "I know that there is a member of our family who was sent to your territory as the Dragon Soul Envoy of White Dragon Casaiple." "You mean the little boy?" "He's my brother." Carl looked at Ebolyn in surprise.With an unbelievable face, he said to her: "Well, that, I'm sorry, I have a question, is that young master the legitimate son of the Harshtel family?"

A sudden blush appeared on Ebolyn's cheeks. "So you know about this. Yes, my brother and I were adopted by the Harshtel family. Although I don't have the qualifications to be a Dragon Soul Envoy, thanks to my younger brother, I was able to be adopted into the Harshtel family together." .” Carl had a sympathetic look on his face. "yes……" Ebolyn shook her head, then said: "I went to pay my respects to Master Nexus Shulizhe in the morning. I heard from him that Kasaiple was defeated by Amtat." "...Yes, there is nothing wrong." "Dietrich...how is he?" The name of that dragon soul envoy kid is Dietrich? Uh, wait. When I think about it carefully, we don't care about that child at all!What happened to him?Why didn't we think about the child's life and death at all?Why do you seem to regard it as something that you don't need to know? That's true!I, no, we all seem to think so, and see Caseple and that kid named Dietrich as one.The defeat of Casepley is equivalent to the death of Dietrich, which is the same thing.These two concepts are inseparable.Even Karl said: "I believe Miss Ebolyn, you also know that if the dragon dies, the possibility of the Dragon Soul Envoy surviving is almost zero." She clenched her fists and said: "Is that true?" "No. I'm sorry, but I'm not sure whether Mr. Harshtel is alive or dead." Ebolyn looked at Carl with a face full of anger. "You mean you didn't confirm?" "Ah, this..." Carl didn't know what to do.Ebolyn said angrily: "So you didn't confirm it!" "……yes." Ebolyn looked at Carl with trembling lips.All of a sudden, she was talking like a cascade of words. "That's true. After all, the important thing is only Kasaiple. Because anyway, the Dragon Soul Envoy is a living body that doesn't do anything. He is like an accessory that follows the dragon. It is only for the sake of talking to the dragon. There must be this troublesome life form in it. If Kasaiplei is dead, then the Dragon Soul Envoy is useless and has no value worth caring about!" When I heard Ebolyn's words, it felt like even I got goosebumps. That's right, we've all been ignoring him.Only dragons matter.The Dragon Soul Envoy didn't do anything.The Dragon Soul Envoy is an intermediary between dragons and humans.They are just a symbol, representing the promise of the dragon to obey the orders of the people... Is this what I once told Jemini?Because of this, we don't care about that symbol at all. We are so ruthless.We sent that little boy off to the battlefield and forgot about him altogether.Only long live the great Casepley.It never occurred to me even now to know the name of that little kid! Ebolyn stared wide-eyed and shouted: "So... you didn't even think about asking whether Dietrich was alive or dead... you just came to the capital in a hurry with the news of Cassiple's defeat. Yes, Kasaiplei has already been defeated, so what value is there for the Dragon Soul Envoy! It is useless at all! So just go and report the defeat to His Highness!" Carl's whole head drooped. "I apologize to you. I do not deny this." Ebolyn stood up abruptly from her seat.She kept trembling her lips and said: "You don't need to apologize to me. Instead, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry for wasting everyone's time by asking me if my worthless brother is alive or dead! Lord Marquis also doesn't care about his news, So please rest assured!" Lord Marquis also doesn't care about his news?What does it mean?Karl originally wanted to say something more, but Aibo Lin directly gave a staring salute and walked out.The two big men followed her out quickly.Carl stared blankly at the front door of the hotel. A few of us moved to Karl's table.Carl kept his head down with such a painful expression. "Carl." "Oh, brother Niederfa. I loathe myself now! I don't even care about that little boy's life or death." "We're all like that. We thought 'Caseple lost' meant 'the kid died.' It's not your fault alone." Carl shook his head.He said in a voice full of pain: "It's my fault, it's my fault! Besides Casepley, Dietrich should be Dietrich himself. Why doesn't anyone care about that without Casepley The life and death of a young man? The so-called human being is not a life that can be treated casually... and no matter what means or value he is used for, no matter whether a person is useful or useless, he should be respected. If Fei When Leier sees me now, he doesn't know how he will scold me..." I was stunned when I heard the last sentence.Ferrer, if Ferrer sees me now! Ferrer.Because the spies of the distant enemy country did sinister and vicious things, the children lost their parents, and Ferrer, a kind wizard, was willing to live in that place for the sake of those children.He didn't distinguish between enemy country or motherland, and only regarded the incident as a crime committed by adults against children.Therefore, as an adult, he should make atonement for him.However, the reason for the defeat, just because of this reason, no longer cared about the life and death of the Dragon Soul Envoy child.Ah, how ashamed I am! Nelia looked at us with a surprised expression. "Uncle Carl, please smile. Like this. Hee..." Nelia used her fingers to pull her lips from side to side and made a weird smile, but Carl was still not moved by it at all. Carl seems to have made up his mind today.Next to our table, a whole beer barrel was brought over. Carl told me to open the lid of the beer barrel, put the cup in it, and drink it out.The boss frowned when he saw that the beer kegs were destroyed, but after he asked us to pay him the money for the beer kegs, he stopped hindering us. Carl was drunk, showing a very strange drunken state. "Man is evil. The body of man rejects the earth, and stands on two feet. Behold, the proud face of man stands upon his neck looking at the sky. All innocent animals look at the earth with their heads, but only man , with a head on its neck looking up at the sky, mocking the Creator. Yet this sinful body was waiting for the time to lie down on the earth, and man was not aware of it." He was definitely not shouting, but more like whispering.And he kept mumbling to himself.If anyone spoke to him, he would answer immediately and then go back to muttering to himself, so we decided to leave Karl alone and get drunk. I was also in a bad mood.If I were that child, just because I have the aptitude to be a dragon soul envoy, I would be farewell to my parents, and after being taken to a noble family, I would be sent to a battlefield I am not familiar with, and then no one would care about my life or death... Fuck it ! Shan Sen is the only one among us who has experienced that battle, but he is calmer and calmer. "Who can control who in a war? It's too late to even take care of your own life. Because you can't take care of yourself and others, that's why people die in battle, right?" Karl immediately replied: "You're right, Brother Fisher...but human beings are evil. Human beings look at this world as an individual, but they regard this world as their own appendage. Everything is mine. The props and value benchmarks are all in my heart. With those far-fetched value benchmarks, I don’t even ask others to understand, I just hope that they will obey unconditionally..." Shan Sen gave up trying to persuade him and drank a glass of beer.But Giseon was listening to Carl very seriously.He seemed to have heard the most wise and precious words in the world, with a very happy expression on his face. So, one is the man who keeps mumbling, one is the man who listens carefully to his muttering, one is the man who gives up, and one is the man who is angry and ashamed.In this way, the four men constituted a melancholy drinking scene, and in the middle of drinking, Nelia returned.She scratched the back of her head and said: "What's the matter with you? I really don't understand. What happened? Why are you all like this?" Karl almost poured the beer into his mouth, drank it, put the empty glass in the beer barrel, scooped it up, and poured it into his mouth again.It's like pouring water into a burning house. It's really a mess.Nelia simply lost her temper. She snatched the beer mug from Carl's hand. "Uncle Carl! Stop drinking, please listen to me!" "Ah, Miss Nelia. Please tell me, I'm listening. Pulupulu..." The last sound was the sound made by Carl's head buried in the beer barrel after his cup was snatched away.Shan Sen and Ghisien were so frightened that they quickly pulled up Carl's upper body.Carl was rescued from the beer barrel soaked and nearly unconscious.Nelia was startled and slapped Carl several times.Immediately, Carl opened his dull eyes and said: "It is too small a sentence for me, a sinner. Please make it harder." "Ah! I really can't save you!" Nelia returned the beer mug to Carl and left him alone, then turned to the person who seemed to be still in a normal state of mind, namely Shan Sen, and asked him: "Why on earth did he become like this?" Shan Sen showed an expression as if he was sorting out his thoughts in his head first, and then said to her: "To put it simply, a child went to the battlefield. He didn't even think about asking about the child's life or death. He only cared about other more important things. But today the child's sister came and asked Karl if the child was Life is death. Because he doesn't know, he can't say anything. So he feels sorry and ashamed. That's how it is." "Nothing complicated. So he became like this?" "Don't make things so simple!" It seemed to be my cry.Because Nelia, Shanson, and Githion were all staring at me alone.I went on shouting, not knowing what I was yelling about: "Bastard! Don't make things so simple! Then what is Shan Sen? After he was born, he lived for a while, and then died? Simplify your Shan Sen's life like this, and nothing else It's all gone, okay? What about Nelia? She was born, lived for a while, and then died? What about King Lutanio? He was born, lived for a while, and died! Damn thing, shit Don’t use this method to simply explain other people’s life, don’t take people seriously! Dietrich, oh, fuck! That kid was worried about Bailong, and he ran to the mountain to find mint in the middle of the night .The child appeared trembling before us on a white horse that was too large. Why don't you say this?" "Why is this kid like this?" Hearing Nelia's answer, Shansen seemed to reply: "He's about the same as Carl. Up until now, I haven't thought of that kid, not even once, and I feel sorry, that's why he became like this." "Ridiculous. Who has the means to take care of everyone else? Isn't it stupid of them to think so?" "It's not a bad thing, don't scold them." "It's a bad thing. People are not such animals. If you have illusions about people, you will have a hard life. Xiuqi seems to have been infected by Iluli!" "This..." "Ugh!" In the middle of the conversation between Shansen and Nelia, Carl growled, as if he wanted to dive into the beer barrel again.I see the beer splashed in the sky.Golden water drops one by one.I seem to have fallen.The ceiling looks sloped. I seem to have lost my sense of time. I really wanted to stop the spinning feeling in my head, I tried to open my eyes, but I just couldn't lift my eyelids. I feel someone touch my cheek.It was a woman's hand...it looked like Nelia.She made me sleep on a pillow with the sheet pulled over my chest. "Xiu Qi, are you alright?" I don't know if I answered.Maybe a little nod.Nelia says: "I've heard Shan Sen say the whole thing, it's not a tragedy of a specific person." My eye sockets seem to be wet.Her fingers gently caressed my eyelids. "Of course... Dietrich will be sent to the battlefield. It has nothing to do with his own wishes. It's all because he has the qualifications of a dragon soul envoy. My heartache may be because of this! Because I feel sorry for this unfortunate boy. I didn't take a good look at him or care about him once!" Nelia's hand began to tap my chest repeatedly, which made me feel safe. "But we can't take the effort to love everyone." Her hands are warm. "We are humans, not elves. A human child will be an adult after ten years. You should also be an adult. Because people cannot help growing up." I don't know if I feel it from Nelia's hand or my own, but I feel a pulse beating. "Although this is regrettable, you must act like a grown-up. We live in a world where not everyone has the opportunity to be happy. There must be someone on the side of misfortune. So when you see misfortune, You have to learn to be patient." At this moment, Nelia, who had been talking to me in a low voice, suddenly had a playful tone. "But I say...somehow, sometimes it seems like you can be a kid forever." She giggled and said: "Hmm, it's possible. Look at Uncle Carl, giggling... I really didn't expect that a person with such a serious face and always speaking so rigorously could be so pure in his heart. I really dare not Believe me. You seem a lot like him." Then my mother spoke. "Xiu Qi. Well-behaved Xiu Qi." "Mother……" "mom……" "Mother!" "Don't go! Don't go, Ma! I don't, I don't!" "No mother, no father, I'm an orphan. Amtat took my father away. I'm an orphan, like the fifty children Ferrer took care of. I'm no different from them .” "I have to walk on my own. I have to walk on my own feet. Why don't they look at me? Why don't they listen to me? We were walking together, why did they leave me? I have to rely on myself Walking alone, no! We can walk together. We should walk together." "no." It was Iluli who said it.She smiled and said: "This is the kind of sadness that you can't solve with a friendly hand. Well... who are you reaching out for?" "Iluli, you are wrong." "You're wrong, it's not like this! I don't have a mother, so I know what loneliness is. I want to extend a friendly hand. I want to walk with others! I know loneliness. I can even feel the loneliness of other people." Understood. I don't extend a friendly hand because I don't like fighting with others, or because I don't like hearing people say I'm an unruly kid. I extend a friendly hand because I know others Lonely, but stretch out a friendly hand! I hope to get rid of loneliness by holding my hand. It is because of this!" "You didn't extend a friendly hand to Dietrich." "That, that... I forgot to reach out... No... No!" "No one can understand another's loneliness." what a sad dream... "Nelia—" "Ok?" "I, am I awake?" "What? Uh, it seems so?" "you sure?" "Are you wondering?" "Ugh!" Nelia pinched my nose so painfully, I clutched my nose and jumped up.Oh my goodness!Why am I in bed?Yes.I have been lying in bed.Because I didn't know what state I was in, I stepped on a gap, stumbled and fell, and hit my face on the floor next to the bed.Shansen looked at me with an expression of realizing something. "Is this Ned French's way of getting up?" "I've always had a tendency to pursue unique things." I stood up while talking nonsense, and it turned out that it was broad daylight. The surroundings are very bright, and from the sunlight coming in from the window, it seems that it is already the time of the morning, and it is getting late.Oh, really, a whole evening and a whole morning seemed to have been cut out of my life!Carl is sitting on his bed drinking coffee.I looked around. "Where's Gissien?" "He said he was going to the Tower of Light, and then he went out. Are you in good health?" "It's okay, thank you." "Thank you so much, you bastard." Shan Sen smiled slightly and handed me a glass of cold water.After I took it, I drank it in one gulp.Ugh!There was a horrible noise in my stomach.My entire body was shaking because of the shock in my stomach. "This, isn't this cold water?" "I also mixed a little dragon's breath. It should taste better than cold water." "Yeah. That's it. Ugh!" I ran to the toilet.Shan Sen's words came from the room. "Carl, as a matter of fact, that cup of coffee was also..." "Really? Well, no wonder I think the aroma of coffee today is a bit...uh!" Nelia didn't go out today.She was taking care of Carl and me, who were exhausted from hangovers.When we said sorry to her, she said with a half-complaint and half-smile: "Gee. There's nothing to do even if you run out. It's so boring. This capital is nothing like a capital." "what does it mean?" "I can't even see beautiful things that sparkle. Huh! Originally, it only takes an hour to walk around the capital, and you can see some aunts wearing some sparkling ornaments, or hiding them in hats, or hiding them It's inside the skirt. It's so good to see. And..." Shan Sen said with a displeased face: "After you approach quietly, secretly..." "It's also possible to do this. Because in a country that is at war, I still want to wear a bunch of those things to show off. I can't stand this kind of behavior." Nelia said confidently, so Shan Sen burst out laughing. "However, please don't think that I just ran out for a few days because I wanted to do this kind of thing. I wanted to see if there was any short-term employment. I went to many places and asked, but there was no one. Found it. Alas! I think we should leave the capital." At this moment, Karl said in a hoarse voice: "If you don't see someone wearing gold and silver...that's really..." We looked at Carl.He frowned because of his headache and said: "Miss Nelia, what do you mean by that? Is it because those people don't wear gold and silver because they are afraid of being seen by others, or is it because of some other reason that we can't see What about people wearing gold and silver?" Nelia opened her eyes and said: "Well... what's the matter? Uncle Carl, do you want to change careers to work with me?" Carl smiled, and Nelia said again: "I think there's something strange about it...gold, silver, sapphires, rubies, opals, diamonds, all these shiny, beautiful and expensive things have all disappeared. Well, of course, it can also be considered that things are as I just said Said: "Because of the war, no one in the whole country is so bold as to wear that kind of thing in order to practice frugal life!" I don't wear jewels for that reason. I think it's because there are no jewels in the capital..." Nelia even made hand gestures, and after speaking cheerfully, she suddenly showed a startled expression. "Wait, wait. Are you guys going to come to the capital to collect jewels? That is, to collect gems to pay the dragon?" Carl sighed deeply.Nelia opened her eyes wide. "My god... wouldn't that be bad? You need gems, don't you?" "That's true. But the king has promised us." "Yes, yes, yes, if there is no way, there is no way. It's too bad! I have to go out and inquire about it." Then came another voice. "There's no need to inquire. Let me explain." Giseon said as he opened the door and came in.He came into the room, pulled up a chair, sat down and said: "The first thing I want to tell you is that it is very painful." Sure enough, I started to have a headache.Hmm...it doesn't seem like it's just the impact of hitting the floor. Ghisien first untied the Duanya sword and put it on the table, telling it to shut its mouth. After threatening, it began to explain in a low and clear tone. "I went to the Tower of Light, and there is no ordinary chaos there. After the wizard named Philip Niworth caused a commotion yesterday, the Wizards Guild themselves seem to have begun to censor. Their investigation method is indeed very similar What the wizards did. They seem to have mobilized dozens of wizards and disciples to search the entire capital with the magic of detecting gems. I heard that many wizards have collapsed from exhaustion!" Although Gishien smiled, Carl's expression changed to a melancholy one.Githion continued to smile and said: "I think it's ridiculous. It's like we can know things just by inquiring a little bit, but they still use magic to investigate. What the ancestors said is true: 'The so-called genius has a certain aspect compared to ordinary people. It's extremely developed, but there's another side that's terrible'. Anyway, they investigated it this way, and the results of our investigation are exactly the same. The capital has now reached the point where there are no gems or precious metals in stock." "Have you found out the reason too?" "If you want to find out the reason, you should ask the merchants. So I asked a few merchants. I asked them who was buying the gems, but things didn't look like this at all." Giseon stroked his chin and said: "Yesterday we thought of two situations. First, someone is buying gemstones. Although it is easy for people to think in this direction, it is not the case after inquiring. Second, the supply of gemstones has been cut off. Although we I thought it was impossible, but it is. The merchants told me that the supply of gems has been cut off." Carl looked surprised. "Is there a problem with the supply? Gems are not expendable assets. As much as there are originally, they will always exist..." Gissien shook his head. "Of course gems are not expendable assets, but this is the imperial city of Baizos, and the Tower of Light is here. For those wizards, gems, jewels, and precious metals are expendable assets. Everyone knows that they will use up an experiment How much is it? About a year’s living expenses for a family, they can spend it in an instant.” "Ahhh. I see." "Yes. So I asked them again if some link in the source of supply was blocked by someone. Actually, there is no need to ask. There is only one kind of people who can mine that metal." "dwarf?" "Yes. It must be that the dwarves didn't carry it out. If they don't take it out there, of course it will cause a commotion. Oh, most people don't have any problems, so they accept this fact quietly, but those who need gems The wizard was in a great commotion." We looked at each other with devastated expressions. At other times, whether there is a shortage or not of precious things like gems is not relevant to us.That kind of thing can't be eaten, and it's very useless (I seem to have become Shan Sen...).but!But not now.We have to raise a ransom for the hostages.Why is this weird thing happening now! Githion continued: "Regarding this matter, yesterday's wizard, Felix Niworth, told me a piece of information." "what?" "Felix Niworth seems to have contacted the Gray Mountains and the Brown Mountains. After he contacted with magic, he seemed to be completely exhausted, but no matter what, he learned a very important piece of information." He paused, then said: "The dwarf's Knocker seems to be moving." Knocker?I asked Githin: "What, the knocker on the door moves?" "That's not what it means, Hugh. The so-called Knocker of the dwarves means the knocker, referring to the person who first knocked on the sacred anvil of Caris Newman, very much like our king. Of course, the dwarves will not bow down or Serving this knocker does not force other dwarves to do something just because he is a knocker, so he is a bit different from the king, but anyway, he still has the highest right to speak, and is the only one who has the right to call The dwarf of the most important meeting. It would be endless to go on and on, but in short, just think of him as the most honorable dwarf." Yeah?hum.Githion continued: "I don't know what the dwarf knocker moved for, but it may be to investigate the fact that the gemstones have stopped being shipped out. After the investigation is over, he seems to come to the capital. He will come to see His Royal Highness, yes This event explains it." Karl said: "When did he leave?" "The end of September." "Huh? It's already mid-October, isn't the investigation over yet?" "I don't know much about it, but I can roughly guess why the beater is so slow." "why?" Githion smiled and said: "Because he walks on two feet." Uh oh my! Even if you can't ride a horse, it shouldn't be so, my God!The most honorable dwarf walked to the capital?He doesn't even ride a short-legged horse or a donkey?Giseon saw my expression and said: "Dwarves tend to insist on strange things. Maybe they think we're a weird race that looks like we have two legs but rides on horses. Anyway, that dwarf beater, Esaihand Eindev... ,What's wrong?" Githion was startled when he saw me jump up.Not long after, I was even more surprised to see Shan Sen jumping up again.After Shan Sen and I looked at each other, we sat down again. "The noblest dwarves are..." "Well, that's what Githion said..." "Then we have made a most honorable escape?" "Well, it should be." Carl looked at the sky.No, it's the ceiling. "Oh... I didn't expect that."
