Magic Gems Gourmet - chapter 551 Heritage of the Dwarves
There was a small building on the plain.
That must be the ruins.
When I saw it, Ein walked a little faster.Katima’s body, which was still asleep on her back, moved forward with care so as not to overshake her body.
“… it’s a stone house without any insult.”
“That’s why it’s not like that.”
“But look, there’s actually something hidden…”
Yeah, I hope so.
As a matter of fact, Shannon was not as interested as Ein.
Now, the fact that she’s walking the plains with Ein occupies her head.It doesn’t matter if there’s something on the ruins or not.
“Grandpa, I’m so sorry…”
There was no door at the entrance to the ruins, and Ein stepped on his feet.
The inside is slightly moldy and damp.There were leather water bottles and bonfires that the adventurer would have left behind, but nothing else.
(I wish I could clean it up and go home.)
Ein complained to the adventurers he had never seen before, and stepped further into the depths.
It was only about the size of a typical private house, and it could only be said that it was too large and not too narrow.
― ― However.
Hmm?
I suddenly noticed the signs of magic power and looked around.
Similarly, Shannon leaned his head and looked around.
But nothing.
Some of the ruins were abandoned by adventurers, and there was no place to look.
“Shannon”
“I know. I felt the magic that had nothing to do with us… but I wonder where it came from.”
I’m sure it’s at my feet. I feel like it’s drifting down there slowly.
“From the bottom? From the bottom of this cobblestone?”
Hmm, maybe.
What’s the matter with it?
Ein stepped hard on the cobblestone, but he was lost in doing more.For once, this place is called a ruin, so I was wondering if it would be too rough.
But not if there is an anomaly.
It looks like the evil spirit (Wraith) —, but it looks really different.
Inner corners glowed pale, and shadows shaking.
The shadow slowly moves left and right, and the remaining layer becomes the same shadow, increasing the number.
Soon, it spread across the wall, enclosing Ain and Shannon in the shape of a coin.
I don’t like the Undead, do I?
By the way, why?
“Because it often comes out in the dark.Ein made the dark spots okay, but I still hate the Undead. ”
With that, Shannon reaches out to the shadows.
At the point where the fingertips are stretched out.
“Kneel down (,,,,)”
He spoke out in an ordered voice and dyed his eyes in gold.
Enchanting Poison, Curse of Loneliness.
Only Shannon, the ancestor of a race called the Red Fox, used it to trigger the power of absolute fascination.
However, the shadows continue to increase in number without interfering.
What this means is that that shadow is unwilling.
I don’t think so.
Shannon then looked at Ein with a glowing smile.
The lack of cheeks was inversely proportional to the appearance of the castle.
Well then, let’s get out of here.
Are you sure? Are you sure you want to leave it like this?
“One way or another, it’s not all right. I’m worried about the lack of information from the adventurer, but if I fight here and the ruins break down, I’ll be in trouble.”… if you break it, Grandpa’s going to be mad at you. ”
Ein decided to go outside.
The reason is somewhat pathetic, but Shannon leaves the ruins with Ein.
Just before they left the ruins, the shadows had increased and spread to near the entrance, but they were able to get out on the verge of contact.
They shouldn’t be able to follow us outside…
“That’s what Ein thought when he asked about the ruins…”
“… you’re here.”
“… you’re here, aren’t you?”
Let’s increase the number so that the ruins are overflowing and we can go out and surround the two of us.
In the idyllic plains, only the sight of the shadows floated.
But that shadow feels like you’ve seen it somewhere before.
“I want you to remember it as soon as possible.”That’s how my behavior changes dramatically. ”
”Hmm… it’s been a long time…”
While the two exchanged carelessly, the shadows further increased their number.
As it stands, it looks like we’re surrounded by hundreds of warriors.
Eventually, the shadows surrounded the two of them, and they lined up in two rows and began to repeat clockwise and counterclockwise.
(N-No, what the hell……)
It’s too unusual.
I don’t understand why.
“— ah”
It was when Ein came to astonishment.
Shannon finally remembered the identity of the shadow.
“You must have reacted to Ein’s strength.”I decided the other adventurers weren’t strong enough to be hostile. ”
I see. And who is it?
Shannon laughed eagerly at Ein.
She stands on her toes and puts her face close to Ein’s ears and says, “You know what?”
“That’s one of the defenses the Dwarves built.”
At the same time, the shadows shook heavily at the same time.
The earth trembled, making an armored sound reminiscent of a golden clatter.
Some shadows flew and dyed the sky pale.
Continuing, the earth began to rise everywhere.
I shouldn’t have come.
I twisted Ein’s cheek.
◇◇◇◇
Back at the inn, Sylvard, enjoying his drink, looked out the window.
When I saw the night sky glowing pale, I said, “Oh,” and loosened my cheeks.
“Let’s take a look at the lords.”
“Huh? Aurora?” It’s true that I’ve heard that there are such skies around here from time to time…… Lord Warren? ”
“Yeah, you can see the sky like that once in a while.”
“That’s right, if you don’t mind, can I go out on the balcony?”I’ll carry the drinks. ”
You’re being nice, Dill. So, Your Majesty ─ ─
Hmm. Great job. Let’s talk while we look up at the sky.
They enjoyed the succulent liquor.
After going out on the balcony, Dill’s honeymoon became a topic of discussion, and Sylvard was very happy to learn that his daughter-in-law was coming to live in peace.
Meanwhile, the room changed, and the glowing sky could be seen from Olivia’s room.
While taking a large open-air bath with a room, she looks up at the Krone and the sky, and mutters, “It’s beautiful.”
Grab a glass from a bucket in the hot tub and enjoy it with a toast to Krone.
“Chris!”
Olivia called out louder.
“Yes! What is it?”
Soon after, Chris, who had his face peered through the door, was not bathed.
She was relaxing in Olivia’s room and enjoying her quiet time.
“Look at the sky. It’s so beautiful.”
“… oh! Really!” Were you lucky? ”
“Maybe.” So, what do you say?If you want, why don’t we take a bath together while looking at the sky? ”
Then Chris nodded immediately.
There is no particular reason why we haven’t bathed together before.I just sat on the sofa in the room and didn’t bathe together because I wanted to read a book.
Therefore, I accepted this invitation with pleasure.
Olivia-sama, would you like another drink?
“Well, thank you.” Well then, how about Mr. Krone too? ”
Fufu, so am I.
Those who were in the lodge spent a thoughtful time, forgetting the usual hustle and bustle.
—Yes.
I didn’t even know what was going on under the glowing sky…
◇◇◇◇
No matter how many times he hung up, Ein made it difficult for his enemies to come out.
“It’s not over at all!”
Ein fought against the grey shapes.It is the gray swordsmen made of shadows that sway in the skeleton of stones that emerge from the raised earth.
I don’t know how many hundreds have been cut down, but I can’t get rid of them at any time.
I wasn’t tired of playing Katima, but I wanted you to see the end.
“And—that’s why Shannon won’t get attacked!”
However, Ein was the only one attacked.
The gray swordsmen gave Shannon nothing.
“Well… maybe I’m not recognized as an enemy.”
“Um, uh…”
“It looks like those golems are reacting to Ein’s power.”Maybe next time you’re thinking about me. ”
Shannon had been told by Ein to “stay away” shortly after the start of the battle, and was watching the battle with his back on the boulder that had fallen near him.
And Ein frowned at the words which Shannon had spoken, which he had not heard.
What’s a golem!
“It’s about a doll that moves with magic power made by a dwarf a long time ago.So, no matter how many times you break it, it plays.I have to break the magic of the driving force. ”
“Ugh… I wanted to ask you first, that!”
Ein smiles bitterly and leaks his grievances as he cuts off the golems with his vivid sword technique.
“Because when I tried to explain, you said it immediately.”
I can’t go back because it’s true.
Then, after cutting down dozens of golems, Ein finally opened his mouth in peace for a moment.I said it as I watched the body of the cut-away golem shatter and regenerate into smoke.
How can I break the magic?
“I wonder if it’s okay to suck up all the linked magic energy.”Or perhaps destroy a control device that might be buried in the ground. ”
“All right, I’ll smoke.”
I thought it would be better to do it quickly.
It has been too soon since I decided to do so.
Ein activates her absorption power and quickly sucks in the magic energy from her surroundings.
“Nnh… nnhhh…”
At that time, Katima twists her body according to her survival instinct.
But don’t worry. Ein thinks firmly about Katima and absorbs it, so her magic power will not be lost from her magic stones.
For the time being, Katima should have evacuated herself with me.
“…… it’s really late right now”
“I’m sorry. I wondered when I would notice, so I wanted to take a look.”
”Well, well, that’s fine… it’ll be over by now”
It was like diamond dust.
The magical crystals rising from the earth are illuminated by the stars to create a fantasy scene.
Around it, the golem suddenly began to slow down and kneeled down.Soon it transformed into dirt, and hundreds of golems returned to the dirt.
Ein finally lowered his aperitif.
But it’s amazing that something like that exists.
“It’s finally over.”
“Good job. Do you have a towel?”
Shannon, who was standing beside Ain, had a raw towel in his hand.
Yes, but where did you get it out of?
“It’s the same as the clothes. I made it with magic power.”
Reasonably, Ein nodded, receiving a towel from Shannon and wiping his sweat away.
As for Ain, she didn’t scratch her sweaty sweat because it was not a lot of exercise, and it was about to wipe the sweat that was faintly floating on her forehead.
I wonder if that thing is that precious.
Which one? I wonder if it’s a device that calls in a golem?
“Oh, I’ve never heard of that.”
“… of course it’s an old technology, but I’ve heard that there are only a few dwarves that can be made.”So maybe it doesn’t exist in modern times.I wonder if it’s valuable in that sense. ”
“I knew it. I’m glad I didn’t destroy it.”
But have the researchers not found it?
Einon, who had put his arms around him, couldn’t help but ask Shannon.
A battle props made by dwarves can blend in with nature.
That’s what it was.
I heard it was a technique used in the Demon King’s War.It seems that the technology used in the Demon King War, which is said to be more harsh than the Heim war, cannot be helped.
“So, what do we do? We’re going home?”
“I was going to go home, but I wonder what happened to this situation.”
I don’t think it’s the same place as the plain a few decades ago where the earth rose and the sand was scattered.
The terrain around us was too transformed to go home like this.
(Amateurs can even it out.)
I thought about using the roots of trees and vines to force them back, but I wanted to avoid doing bad things and scratching the control devices buried in the ground.
As Ein stares at the earth with her arms framed……
“…… erm……”
It was another one.
Rather, it begins to sway from deeper parts of the earth and to rise mercilessly from beneath the ruins.
Eventually, the ruins are lifted to the ground and a huge arm of rock emerges from the hole.Not as big as Verguk or the transformed Visel, but as small as two turns of the latter?
If this happens, I can imagine Ain who doesn’t know much about the golem.
As if to pound the answer to the imagination, a second arm appeared from a distance, and an inorganic boulder with eyes and nose carved in the middle appeared.
Then, while swaying heavily around him, he exposed himself and looked down at Ein and stood up.
The whole body made of rock is sculpted and covered with patterns that the corners of the body have never seen before.
Whoa! Whoa!
Every time the whole body made of rock moves, a dull sound resounds.
Seeing mud falling on the body that was buried in the ground, Ain layered her vines as an umbrella.
“Look, look, it’s so big.”
“Yeah, I think it’s big. It’s so big.”
“I’ve never seen anything so big.”Maybe it was born when the Kingdom of the Dwarves glorified. ”
“That’s great. It’s a big deal.”
“…… what’s the matter with you now? Why are you back alive?”
That’s the way it’s supposed to be.
“If you come in the middle of a picnic, this is happening, so don’t you think there’s anything you can do about it?”
Where to go, where to go, where to go, what kind of constitution is involved in strange disturbances?
Thinking of such a fate, Ein sighed twice and repeatedly with his sword.
Shall I comfort you?
It’s okay. As soon as I say please, I’m going to get my mind mixed up.
“Hey, hey! Will you stop saying bad things about people?!”
“I’m just kidding, but right now, we need to do something about this.”
“… then why did you put down your sword?”
”That’s because I’m so flustered by sudden assaults.”
Shannon didn’t understand.
I don’t know if it was irritating, but I don’t know.Actually, she was a little annoyed because she felt disturbed.
But from there, it didn’t make sense to hold the sword.
— GOOOOOO!
Stone giant arms loomed over the heads of the two talking.
It’s a mass of weight that a normal human opponent can make into a meat mass in a blink of an eye.
You mean you won’t fight?
No, I’ll fight.
Then why did you use the sword? I tried to ask a question that I didn’t know how many times.
”I was just thinking about how I could do something with my fist”
Ein’s side was cool, refreshing, and gentle.
Such a smile suddenly turned towards Shannon and suddenly made Shannon’s cheek red.
However, on the other side, Ein’s clenched fist was far from separated from humans, and he waited for an impending block of stone that could not be produced even by the national disaster and the sea dragon.
“I’m sorry, but I need you to wait here.”
“Um, yeah… it’s okay”
Shannon responded honestly to Einon, who still had the same smile.
In response, she is wrapped in the root of the tree created by Ain, and protected from the upcoming commotion.
After confirming that there was no gap, Ain stacked blue bars on her smile and muttered, “Okay,” and looked up.
So, for the time being…
Rock clumps, rock arms approaching a few dozen centimeters.
Then I was stopped immediately.
When I touched Ein’s fist, it stopped moving.
But immediately, a sound came from the rocks.
Gradually, I thought that the rock was beginning to crack, and Ein’s other arm was swayed up.
Shattered or crushed?
Ruthless force clashes and the arm of the rock shatters to pieces.
The body made of rocks is shocked, and leans backwards.
Ein flew there and ran up the body of the rock.
(There is no magic stone. There are no biological characteristics)
Rather, I had a feeling very similar to the golem I used earlier.
So, this is just a giant golem.
If you were a creature, you’d be lost, but you don’t have to be lost.They attacked us all of a sudden, so we should be allowed to destroy them.
That’s why Ein waved his arm.
I smashed the body of a giant golem little by little to see if there was anything I could think of as a control device.
I found it when I looked up at my head.
That’s it.
I felt a strong sign of magic power from the loyalty of my head.
Now, let’s break it.
“…… Gnnnnnnnnn?”
When I made up my mind, I remembered that I remained in charge of Katima.
I’ve done a terrible thing with this.
I think we should get off once before we can explain the situation or defeat the golem.
But Katima glistened at the golem in front of her.
“Nnnnnn!? I don’t know why I’m here, Ain!”What the hell is this thing?!”What kind of construction is controlling a big rock!?”
“I’m not sure, but Gore…”
“Are you a golem!?” “Is that the golem that was said to have been lost as a result of the Demon King’s War?!”Is it that golem that is said that it is impossible to create the same technology in modern times, even if there is a record!? ”
She was more familiar than Shannon.
… even though it’s a sudden situation when I wake up, this liver is full of Katima.
“So, what is Ain going to do?”
“I was attacked all of a sudden, so I thought I’d crush it.”
“Yaahoooo!? Don’t be ridiculous!””It’s really a golem, and the value of the national budget for a few years (,,,,,,) is a substitute!”
(…… I’m glad you woke up before you could destroy it)
Ein knew the value of the golem, and secretly thought about it while sweating coldly on his neck.
“What am I supposed to do!? Either way, we have to stop moving!”
“I’m sure the records are correct, we need to find the magic tool that controls them!”
Then it’s definitely something on the head.
You mean you can absorb it and suck in magic power!
“That’s right!” “… but you’re so quick to understand anyway?””Why do you know it’s a golem in the first place?”
“…… I read a book in Katima’s lab a long time ago.”
“In other words, you’ve been studying because of me?”
That’s right.
“Nhahaha, I’m here.”Ishtarika’s greatest genius, Ketsey…… ”
Ein smiled back at Katima, who was in a good mood, and looked at the head of the golem.
I ran up the golem’s body and aimed at its head.Humans kicked the clavicle and jumped up to a height overlooking the head of the golem.
(It’s not good to crush it)
You’d better use your sword honestly than with your fists.If they say the national budget is worth several years, even bold Ain will be concerned.
Ain, who had pulled out his sword, carefully aimed and slashed the skin of the rock.
Of course, the result was Ain’s supremacy.
◇◇◇◇
Then it was a busy night.
First, I put Katima next to the golem and went back to Shannon and thanked her again and again.
Shannon was in a good mood at this time.Before he disappeared, he said, “In this way, the Dwarf Kingdom (,,,,,) may still be somewhere (,,,,,)”, and he exchanged a smile with Ain who said, “No way.”
Then Ein took Katima back to the inn.
At this time, I could also sense the signs of Lili and the others who had solved Shannon’s magic.
And when I got back to the inn, it was the real thing.
Silver was very happy to hear the story, but at the same time, she was very sympathetic to Ain, who was in trouble wherever she went.
For the time being, we were able to send several airships to manage them immediately.
Nevertheless, there is not much we can do now.
For a moment, there was, but because Warren had just finished his civilian work, he didn’t even have a curtain on Krone.
“I feel good! I didn’t know if I could just spend time with everyone, or if there was a big discovery for Ishtarika!”
Everyone who was spending their time thinking about it moved to the big room, and what they were going to do was party.
and wine, and good food, and those who are near.The dish contains information about the golem that Ein and Katima carried earlier.
(It was really an amazing discovery, wasn’t it?)
Ein also enjoyed relaxing in the corner of the sitting area.
Then Dill came and sat down next to him.
Shortly after Ein left the inn with Katima, the Fuorun team contacted me.
From the foul group?
“Yes, I heard from the head of Fuorun that the Kongwood is ready.”
I see. Well then… I guess I’ll go say hello tomorrow.
“I understand.” Now it’s time for me to offer it to you. ”
If you think about it, Dill has never been with Ein during this trip.
Well then, let’s go tomorrow morning.
Hah!
You don’t have to go with Sylvard or your father in the morning.
The problem was that Dill drank a lot differently than usual, but apparently he didn’t have to worry about it.Dill’s face was as scary as usual.
Ein slowly carried the glass in his hand to his mouth as he imagined what the vajra tree would look like.
