Chapter 7 (2/2)

「Well there is that But that wasn’t oal」

「……Nn, what do you mean?」

She sent lance

Do you really intend onme say it all?

What a helpless girl

I restrain my embarrassment as much as possible and say seriously

「Well because I wanted to talk with Isabelle more」

「Eh?」

「Well until now, I’ve never been able to make a friend

II can really say but,

To find someone that is able to stand equal with me It makes me happy」

Of course, at first I only thought that it would be ok to guide her

But, afterher sword, she’s one hell of a tomboy

At the first , she had her caution at max levels

But I didn’t hate that behavior and was able to have a friendly chat afterwards

Iup

I could irl, and be happy, normally

What is it, don’t those feelings reach the elf’s ears?

「Is- isn’t that just because I’m an elf?」

「I think you are ive a reason……u-n

I think it’s siuy, kind of feeling」

That’s right

Since I’d come from my previous world to this one, I’d never made a friend

Loneliness inside of solitude (Tln: lit lonely inside of lonely)

King of loneliness

The best skill was probably 『Sore loser』

But, when I’ fun

Because I re, I only wanted a point of contact with Isabelle

It was the sa,

I wanted to uy, was the motive I had

Aa, now I understand

The , it was surely this

I had never had this experience before, so I didn’t recognize it immediately

I surely, wanted to becoht

Probably fro

When I answered honestly, Isebelle’s cheeks blushed suddenly

The day had grown long

It’s probably hot

You should take care not to get heatstroke

「Yo- you wanted to know about Elf’s Canyon?」

「That’s right but, you weren’t going to tell me where you?」

「Of course it’s forbidden to tell about it

However, there is nothing to prohibit inviting a friend」

「There was that option……」

I see, I could have asked directly about the medication,

Even before that, it’s not normal to have an elf as an acquaintance

If Isabelle guides o to the canyon too?

「However, right now I still have some important work left

It will take another 7 or 8 years to complete

When that is over, you can come with me」

「Really?!」

「Of, of course What would be the point of taking advantage of a child and lie to them?」

What reassuring words

Formore reliable

With Sefina’s illness would take 10 or 20 years to die

If it was that many years then it would still be ok

Even still, this guy suddenly became all nice

There was a glint in her eyes when I helped her, did she think she it was a debt?

Although there was no intention of patronizing one bit

「After I finishto the Acadeic」

「By the royal capital you ic Academy?」

「Un After graduating frouaranteed position」

「……Ohhhh」

If done well, you could obtain a dragon king’s silver spoon

I had intended on going to the Royal capital academy in the first place

Given that schedule, it was possible to obtain both things in the same time frame

「Actually, I’ to there as well」

「I see If we ood to me

――Well then, I’ now」

「Aa, thank you For bringing me here」

「Thank you for saving me as well

I don’t really like huis-kun」

Saying that makes me happy

Isabelle slowly stands up

She starts to walk slowly, then glances in my direction

「……Well, it’s ok right?」

「N, what is it?」

「Don’t move It’ll be over quickly」

What could it be? I requested an explanation with a glance

But, Isabelle only expressed a laugh and wouldn’t answer

She abruptly approaches me

And then――

「……Hamu」

She sweetly bit my ear

How abrupt, it felt like a surprise attack

It made my heart jump

It was ticklish in a good way

The tip of the tongue licked the skin, it was a sensual sensation

At the same time I felt a little pain

Isabelle’s canine tooth had bit the soft part of my ear

「……Isabelle?」

「Fuu, don’t get so excited

This is a smell that elves know, I’ve injected it into your body」

「Smell?」

「Un Most elves are cautious of hu

So it’s not easy to becoht?」

Isabelle doesn’t see humans as allies after all

Is the chasm between Elves and humans that deep?

While she patted my ear softly, she explains with a smile

「But the sn that tells people of the same family 『This person is safe』

With this I think it will be easier to talk with other elves」

「Hoo, that’s convenient」

Ah, so there wasn’t an ulterior motive?

What exactly was it that caused ly?

Was it a lump of evil?

There’s noit

「Well, thisbut――

I don’t need to explain it right?]

With a giggle Isabelle turned around

I’m extremely worried by that

What could it be, that other ?

「Well then, I’ll be going ahead」

「Aa, take care along the way」

With a hand flutter, Isabelle leaves like a gale

She’s clearly stronger than any human

She would knock out any one that tried to bully her without a doubt

I’lad I became her friend

「……Now then」

I had no idea that ree with my objective

You never knohat life has in store

I was thankful to the

That’s right, this strange uncivilized mountain

I nodded in admiration, and looked up at the sky

After co important

「How do I get home?」
