To Hell with Being a Saint, I’m a Doctor

Episode 293 Aira’s Request (1)

Since the adventurer’s guild’s expiration date was running out, Rey’s steps were quick.

As soon as we leave the temple, we speed up and find the adventurer’s guild in the Glien branch.

Whatever the request, a simple one would be fine.

That’s why he chose the convoy request to Billo Village.

It seems that the three merchants are urgently seeking an adventurer because they cannot find an escort.

Just in case, I asked the receptionist, and luckily the client came just in time.

He readily accepted Ray’s companionship.

Since you can get a first-class therapist for about a fairy tale, it was worth welcoming it with both hands up from the clients.

Departure took place immediately.

The towns of Glien and Billo are not far away.

Even though Glienne is a town of considerable size, it is still a town.

It is still recognized as a region and cannot have a separate lord.

As a result, there was a limit to its size.

As soon as I got out of Glien, the village of Billo came into view.

A group of knights wearing plate armor can be seen from the entrance.

Sensing a bad feeling, Ray went inside the carriage to hide, and the knights who had been skimming the carriage nodded and let her in.

“You may come in.”

“thank you.”

If you look at the atmosphere, it is like a castle where the king lives.

Why did they go through inspections just by entering a village?

Ray sighed and rubbed his chest.

I was thinking of running away, but fortunately I don’t think I need to.

After receiving a warning due to the tight deadline, he barely completed the quest and headed straight for the forest of Grandel.

It is still a forest where trees grow uniquely.

Rocks are placed here and there like obstacles, and dense forests rise high into the sky, making it a natural fortress.

I think I know why monsters don’t get close.

How could monsters who couldn’t climb trees live here?

Even if he lived, he would often be kicked out by the elves.

I walked slowly, feeling the pleasant, clear and cool air, and arrived at the Elf Village before I knew it.

Pia, who had been sitting still and staring blankly at the sky, felt Ray’s presence and pretended to know.

“Come on.”

There is no strength in the voice.

You can feel how hard the elven guardian’s job is from the tired look.

Even the elves, who are usually not tired, complained of fatigue.

Ray said pitifully.

“There is even Aira in the village, so do we need to stand guard?”

“ha ha ha. It is the duty of guardians that has been handed down since ancient times. I can’t accept that anything happens because Aira-sama is away.”

I heard the story and it is.

It was because a place that would become incapacitated when Aira was gone couldn’t be called an elven village.

She brushed off her seat and stood up, brushing her light brown hair over her ears.

“By the way… if I see you left the road you used to take and came here, can I interpret it as meaning that you came here to see me?”

With a brightly colored face like a cucumber flower, she smiles brightly.

There was nothing to deny, so Ray nodded his head obediently.

“I thought it would be boring to wander around the forest alone.”

“Certainly not bored.”

As if the answer made him feel better, he covers his mouth and lets out a charming smile.

“Let’s go to the village. Let me guide you. It must have come to meet Bonama and Aira-sama.”

Ray, who was stabbed by Pia’s one word, followed her.

Returned to the Elven Village after a long absence.

As the number of elves increased, the tree where Aira’s tree house was located grew even taller, and now its height alone is staggering.

For elves, the height of a house signifies its authority.

It probably meant that Aira’s position was higher than before.

Pia’s house, which previously seemed to be in the middle of the tree, is several stories higher.

There is even a fence around it, which at first glance looks like an elder’s house.

Looking at the house Ray has developed, he said.

“You’ve grown up before you know it, Pia. Im happy.”

Pia rolled her eyes at him.

“…I don’t like the strangely happy corner… but thank you.”

As we chatted, I glanced up at the top of the tree, and I saw Aira wandering around from above.

He is holding a book as if he was reading a book.

Did it come out to meet you?

She waved her hand with a happy smile on her face, and when she met the eyes of the elves around her, she hurriedly entered the house with a straight face.

Pia looked at him and smiled embarrassedly.

“Ahahaha…then I’ll go. Aira-sama seems to have been waiting too.”

“okay. I’ll stop by from time to time.”

“Thank you for doing so.”

* * *

Ray climbed the huge tree at once.

Despite their considerable height, they take a distance with every step they take.

He opened the door of a tree ripe with the years.

Aira, who was drinking tea at the table, greeted her with her ears red.

“You’re here.”

A jade marble-like voice trembles.

It must have been quite embarrassing to see him being seen by the ruling elves.

“I want you to welcome me like before.”

“…that’s only once. I will never do it again.”

Had I known that, I would have looked more closely.

Ira poured tea for Ray as he sat down at the table.

It’s a calming scent no matter when you smell it.

The temperature was just right, as if the tea had been brewed with his arrival in mind.

As I took a sip, the unique scent of elven tea filled my mouth.

Ray, who had only drank cheap tea for a while, took a good breath.

“You can drink it anytime.”

“I always have the intention to make it.”

“I am welcome.”

“Whoop whoop.”

She closed the book and looked at Ray.

“Actually, there is something I want to ask of you. Won’t you listen to me?”

He finished the adventurer’s guild’s request and has nothing to do.

Moreover, it was Aira’s first request.

Even though I didn’t listen to the specific contents, my heart to listen to it was overflowing because it was full.

“What is it?”

If he wanted it, he would even save the liver of the demon king.

Aira paused for a while before speaking.

“The fact that the elven village was merged is probably well known to Ray you as well.”

Of course I know.

It was something that had been reported from the beginning when the merger took place.

“Combining two villages is never easy. It is natural for minor problems to arise.”

“yes. It will be even more difficult for elves.”

Unlike humans, who adapt everywhere, elves are a fairly closed race.

They are extremely reluctant to leave their territory and do not welcome meeting elves from other regions.

As such an elf, there must have been a lot of awkward parts in merging the two villages.

It was only because Aira’s ability was so great that she was able to achieve that.

Aira let out a small sigh.

“I fully guessed it and was concerned about it, but in the end it happened for four months. Since the number of elves in Grandel’s Forest has already increased, it is necessary to prepare for the future. To do that, you need elven artisans and minerals to make them.”

“I remember that there were a few elven artisans in the village.”

At Ray’s words, she nodded.

“yes. If it was their skill I had seen, it would be possible to pull out mithril like a thread. But the problem is not craftsmanship, but minerals. Elves do not arbitrarily harm nature. I don’t bother touching it unless it’s primarily necessary for survival. It would be a little different if it was obtained from another place, but elves can’t do business with humans, can they?”

As easy as it is for humans, minerals are always a scarce resource for elves.

Also, elven artisans have a part that matches the dwarves to some extent.

That’s what I enjoy making armor.

I can’t make weapons for a while because there are no minerals, so my hands are itching.

Craftsmen who have sharpened their nerves are bound to have accidents in many places.

She seemed to want to solve these problems caused by minerals.

Ray thought for a moment and said.

“Is it okay if I get a large amount of minerals that are lacking?”

“yes. We will pay for the money needed for human transactions.”

When Ira said it with an apologetic face, he waved his hand.

As for money, the things he received from the holy kingdom were already enough.

Besides, he himself has received a lot of help from Aira.

Even when I lost the Mana Rod, I was able to learn the spirit of speech thanks to her.

“It’s okay because I have enough money. More than that, there is something I want to ask you…”

“Tell me. I will listen to anything I can.”

At that, Ray took out a dull dagger from his waist.

It looks like it was well cared for, but it doesn’t look good.

As Aira watches, she takes out the mana stone she got from the mutant monster and the branch she got from the dryad from her backpack.

She recognized them at a glance.

“It’s a considerable mana stone. And this is the branch of an adult dryad. These aren’t things that can be easily obtained…”

“I want to make a new sword out of this. If you know a skilled artisan, introduce me.”

make a sword

Aira, who had been drooling for a while, suddenly shook her head vigorously, as if she immediately remembered someone.

“If you want the best craftsman, you know. However, I don’t want to recommend it because it has such an eccentric personality.”

I’m not proud of it, but until now, only eccentric people have been around.

Iriel, who is not like a saint, and Zeke, whose loyalty has risen to the level of a madman. Dryad who turns his body into firewood.

In addition, the goddess Gaia, who is good at reading and chewing (?).

Now, it didn’t matter much if one more person was added to the group.

Aira nods as Ray casts a look that seems to be okay.

“It doesn’t matter if you like it, but…”

What kind of savagely insane person is she that reacts to this extent?

Aira began writing something with mana on the dead leaves.

She inserts the leaf she had scribbled on in a book and hands it over.

“…If you ride the top of a mountain range, there will be a place where you can feel a different mana. If you go straight ahead on that road, there is a village of dwarves. Go and hand me this book and say you are looking for the blacksmith Derp. Then they will probably guide you on their own.”

Isn’t it simpler than you think?

As an elf, he wondered how she had a relationship with the dwarf craftsman, but she didn’t dare to ask.

Upon accepting the handed book, Aira added a word.

“Prepare your heart. I don’t know what will happen.”

Ray swallowed.

A lunatic alert went off from Ira.

There is no doubt that this is a guy who has gone out of his mind.
