The village that Allen and his team arrived at was not a village, but rather a village that seemed to be more of a gathering of people.
That is to say, the number of houses is small.
It was the kind of village where you could see all the houses just by going around in a circle on the spot.
There is even an atmosphere of desolation at ......, which may be just as well.
It's also the center of Westfeldt's dukedom, a village located about 20 days' walk from Knox, which is also the center of Westfeldt's territory.
It's not possible to arrive on the same day as you left because Allen was a bit serious about running, which is not unusual.
Considering the fact that it is in a remote area, the air flowing through it is appropriate, but now there is a buzz in the form of a further addition to it.
It's a good thing that you're able to get a good idea of what you're looking for.
"Hmmm... ...... What can we do about this?
"Hmm ...... It would be great if you could come up to me or do something, but I'm just going to watch you from afar,
In your eyes, there is bewilderment and expectation, and fear, isn't there ......?
I'm sure you'll find that the villagers are just staring at you when you step into the village.
It's not just a matter of time before you'll be able to get your hands on a new pair of shoes.
It is now daylight, and the villagers have their own things to do.
In this remote area, there are only a few villages, and villagers are said to be living there, but because of this small distance, the villages are separated from each other and there is almost no interaction between them, I've heard.
In other words, there is no room to play, as they need to be self-sufficient for almost everything.
To say that the current situation is abnormal would be a bit of an exaggeration, but it's not so wrong.
It's a good thing that you're not going to be able to find out what you're going to be able to do with .......
Allen had only heard that Leeds and the others had come to the village on an errand, but he hadn't asked for specifics.
It's not because there was no need, or perhaps because I thought it would be useless to ask, but...
It's ...... actually, we don't know the details either. It's just a 'revelation' that there are people in need in this village. ......
"Ah, ...... was an 'epiphany' after all.
Well, I wouldn't have come all the way to this place otherwise," he said, letting out a sigh.
--I'm not sure I would have come all the way here otherwise.
It is one of the powers that can be used by priestly gifts, or to put it simply, the power to talk to the gods.
However, it's not that useful in practice; it's mostly just information given to you unilaterally by the gods.
It's a kind of prophecy as well as advice.
Basically, you can avoid misfortune by following it, but conversely, you cannot avoid misfortune if you do not follow it.
It is said that although the target of the misfortune is not necessarily you, the one who can leave someone else's misfortune behind will not receive the gift of the priestly system from the beginning.
The biggest problem, however, is that the predictions are often abstract.
Only the place and time are reasonably straightforward, but because they contain cryptic words, it's not always possible to follow them, even if you want to.
Anyway, Allen knew that the revelation would come through Leeds' gift.
Anyway, Allen knew the revelation would happen through Leeds' gift, because he had heard about it before, so he didn't ask for specifics.
All I knew was that something would happen anyway.
But that means you don't even know what to do - you won't be able to understand the contents of the ...... revelations anyway.
"Hmm? Or rather, will you help me?
He didn't respond to the words, just shrugged his shoulders.
Indeed, Allen only said he would accompany you because it was convenient.
And Allen's purpose is to live peacefully in the frontier to begin with.
Helping Leeds and the others is synonymous with getting yourself into trouble--and that's exactly what you'll be doing.
Well, I'm not bold enough to know that my friends are in trouble and enjoy the peace on my own. And I'm just trying to do it on my own, regardless of whether someone forced me to do it or not.
I'm not saying that I'm going to actively disturb the peace.
In fact, if you left your friend in trouble, you would be worried and would not be at peace.
"Well, but I really don't know what to do. Well, I guess the quickest way is to go to what seems to be the center of the commotion: ......
Well, that would be the best way to be sure. And from the reactions of the villagers, it is ......
The moment I said that, Beatrice and Allen were staring at the same place.
Then they looked at each other and smiled.
"Well, there's only one place.
"I don't know if consciously or unconsciously, but the villagers seem to be avoiding that place as well.
"Compared to the surroundings, the house ...... is obviously a fine house, perhaps the house of the chief,?
Unless the chief is disliked, maybe someone is visiting there.
And it's not a person you would welcome.
But, somehow, that doesn't seem to be the root cause of the atmosphere in this village.
"-- Go home! I've never done anything to talk to you about!
And just as the door to the house of the village chief was suddenly opened, someone was knocked out.
As soon as he was thrown out of the house, the door was closed with great force.
It's the someone who was knocked out and left there with a ...... boy - or perhaps a girl, although it seemed for a moment.
Perhaps the same age.
It is rare in this world for her to have dark hair, and it's hard to tell much more than that.
While sitting down, the girl muttered to herself.
I've failed to ....... It's a very good idea to have a good idea of what you should have done: ...... I'm not good at this kind of thing.
So as soon as the girl stood up ...... and turned around, she seemed to realize that she was being watched.
I'm not sure if they are aware of the situation or not, but they are blinking their eyes the same color as their hair a few times and tilting their heads.
'Huh? There are more people than before. And you can go to .......
The girl, who was looking at the faces of Allen and his friends in turn, stopped looking at some point.
There was a slight surprise on her face ...... and when I followed her gaze, I saw Leeds ahead of her.
"You know him?
...... Yes, I've met you once, but only once.
Considering that Leeds is the first princess, it makes sense that she's met a lot of people.
You'll be able to get a good number of people to meet you.
But even so, Allen was curious because, with some disrespect, the girl didn't seem like the kind of person to meet the princess.
If you want to call it crude or something, at least the mannerisms are not those of a nobleman.
She doesn't seem to have bad roots, but from what she wears, she seems more like an adventurer.
So while Allen is observing the girl, she comes over to you.
But when the girl comes close enough to see her face clearly, she tilts her head again, keeping her eyes on Leeds and--
"Um, was ...... raisins?
That sounds like a tasty name again.
Oh, no, it's not: ...... I'm just not very good at remembering people's names.
Yeah, there are people like that. Well, I'm sure Leeds wouldn't mind so much, but why am I talking about ......?
I spoke with some kind of momentum, but at about the same time that I turned my head to look at Leeds, who I thought I should know, and Leeds opened his mouth.
' -- 'Be a beacon of light and dispel the darkness'
"An? What's that?
This is the content of the revelation that came to me
"Keiji? It's just like the old man who said he was an archbishop or something: ......
Yes, it's a lot like that. But now I see the point.
It's a blessing, but can you explain it to us so we can understand it? Oh no, or would you rather be introduced to me first?
...... Yes, I suppose so. Perhaps if you knew who she was, it would make sense to you, Allen.
When he said that, Rees turned his palm toward the girl--
This is Akira Kazaragi. --This is Mr. Akira Kazaragi.
