Elysion Online ~The Dragonewt and The Summoner~

Chapter 496: Sakura harbor and road to the capital

So we arrived at Sakura, the country of harmony, and Sukuna Bikona was surrounded by boats.

"...Sojirou?"

"E, Everyone is just surprised and alarmed by the sudden appearance of a large ship! Please wait a moment"

Sojirou speaks to the ship.

"I am Sojirou, Samurai of Sakura!"

"Mu!? Sojirou! You are safe!"

"Yes! I was sent to Sakura by this ship! I also asked for food relief. Make way now! You'll have plenty of tasty rice to eat!"

W, What!?

The ships opened the way all at once...normally, we would not have been so welcomed by the suspicious people. The situation may be worse than expected.

We anchor at the harbor. We leave Sukuna Bikona with Noah and go ashore.

Where's the rice?

That's the first word.

"You're all being rude to our guests! Let me talk to the head of the party first"

Boo Boo and they grunt at me. I guess that's to be expected when you're starving. Then a girl came running out of breath.

"Haa...haa...So-chan!"

"Eh? Haru-chan!?"

Oh? They seem to be good friends. I don't know much about Okita Souji's story about women.

I do know that he fell in love with a doctor's daughter, but Isamu Kondo was against it and they never ended up together. The only other story I know is that he almost got himself killed when he rejected a woman.

"Why are you here...you must be in the capital"

"I can't just wait in the capital while So-chan goes to the beach!"

"...Haru-chan"

"...So-chan"

Aaah...what are you going to do? This? Do I have to ruin the air? Then I heard the sound of a cute little tummy bug.

"...Haru-chan?"

"I'm sorry...I haven't eaten anything for four days now"

"Isn't that a big problem!? Takuto, Takuto-dono!"

"I don't mind, but...are you sure?"

You're scaring the villagers, aren't you?

"Uh...I'm sure they haven't eaten as much as you have, so it can't be helped. I'll take responsibility, can you please?"

Oh well. Even the genius swordsman-sama has a weakness for women. So I treat everyone to rice and sashimi.

"Delicious!"

"I never knew rice could be so good after a four-day absence..."

"This soy sauce is the best I've ever tasted"

"The sashimi is also excellent...I saw that this guy was not an ordinary person"

That's a great way to be evaluated. Sojirou, on the other hand, is all alone in the world. I was glad Lily and the others were not there.

It was like a feast, but the villagers, whose stomachs were growling, thanked me and apologized.

I was relieved to hear that they seemed to be nice people. Then I got some information.

It is said that there is a serious food shortage in Sakura. The demon salt is gone, but the soil has been damaged and crops are no longer growing.

The storehouses that had been hoarding food have rotted and the food that was safe has been attacked by monsters. Furthermore, it is said that the food was confiscated by some high ranking people.

This is the reason why the villagers were complaining. They were worried that even if they delivered food to the capital, would it reach them? In reality, if a disaster strikes, food problems are bound to occur. Since the food they had stored up here was taken away, their anxiety must be immeasurable.

Well, in that case, let's do something about the soil here first. I was taken to a field and used a demon salt remover and an anti-salt damage agent. Then the villagers planted vegetables.

"They won't...they won't wither!"

"Now we can grow crops!"

The villagers are delighted. Then they thanked me again.

"You saved my life...I will never forget this!"

"Ah! If you ever need any help, just ask! The people of Sakura are very righteous!"

Gin then appears and shouts.

"Guildmaster has succeeded in baiting the people of Sakura!"

"Don't get me started on the infos...what about Sojirou?"

"That's impossible...I'm not at the right level. So, guildmaster, please"

Haa~...I don't have a choice.

"If you continue this, when you get to the capital, I will report that Sojirou was crazy about his lover and didnt do anything to the villagers

"It was my fault! Please don't report me! I will commit seppuku!"

The villagers looked at him coldly, telling him to do it. It's true, isn't it?

We'll get the horses out. I'll ride Darley.

"Guildmaster. You'll have to ride with us"

"I know"

So we set off, but we were attacked by a lot of monsters. First of all, these guys.

Iron Rat Lv7

Normal Monster Subjugation Target Active

A lot of iron rats came. I smashed them up with Darley.

"You can get iron ore by dismantling them"

I don't want it! Then a big one appeared.

Cornered Rat Lv20

Normal Monster Subjugation Target Active

A large bipedal rat. Ugh! In conjunction with Darley, a blue flame dwelled in Mumei and cut it in two.

"From the cornered rat, there will be meat"

Who would eat rat meat! It makes me sick!

Next we met a fox with sunglasses and a shamisen, sitting cross-legged on a stone.

Mujina Lv15

Normal Monster Subjugation Target Active

Funny, but I don't have time to listen! Then Mujina plays the shamisen.

"I made a song about a school of 500 students. Listen. The Problem of Closing Schools"

I stop dead in my tracks. Because I'm curious! What happened in that school!?

But he only plays the shamisen and doesn't sing. Are you kidding me? This guy.

"I wrote a song about my current situation. Listen to it. It's called Desperate Situation with no Escape"

It knows exactly what I'm talking about. Darley's body slammed him to the ground.

When I dismantled him, he didn't drop his sunglasses or his shamisen. How the hell did he get out? This guy!

"He's a very strong man...So-chan"

"He seems to have a different mood when he rides a horse. Takuto-dono! We are almost at the capital!"

"I understand! Mu?"

Lightning strikes in front of me. And a monster appears.

Lightning Beast Lv27

Summon Monster Subjugation Target Active

It's a pre-evolution of Gale. This guy is going to have a hard time.

"Lightning Beast!? This close to the capital!? Takuto-dono!?"

"It is alright. It's going to be a bit of a showy battle, so it's better to stay away. You will be hit by lightning"

I pull out my Mumei. I know the weakness of lightning. Come here for real

"Gaaaa!"

The lightning beast rides on my provocation. It turns into lightning, circles around me and attacks. Left!

Mumei slashes through the lightning. The beast is cut in half.

"He...cut...the...lightning..."

"Amazing..."

Now, let's dismantle it.

Lightning-based Stone: Rarity 5, Material, Quality D

A stone that possesses the lightning attribute. It is used as a material for weapons and magic stones.

Lightning Beast Skin: Rarity 6, Material, Quality C

The skin of a lightning beast. The skin is resistant to electricity and does not suffer from the paralyzing effect of paralysis. Because it is light and strong, it is favored by various adventurers.

Umm! It is the pre-evolution of Gale. It doesn't disappoint me.

And then I saw the capital. There is a splendid castle in the castle town. As expected, the atmosphere is desolate, but I wonder if I can calm down for the time being.
