「They were amazing, huh~」
「To think that they were at the same level as the Great Eight Demons… Well, I somehow guessed it when Lily-san showed her overwhelming power, though. With three people of that caliber, it’s natural that they were one of the strongest parties…」
On the way back from the guild, Haruna and Chinatsu are chatting while walking. They heard various stories from Giorgia, such as the achievements of Deris and the others at that time, but what came out was all about the feats they had established as adventurers. As a result, became clearer that their masters are out of humanity.
「By the way, Shishō and Nell-san will come back soon, right? The rumored hero selection meeting that will be held in the castle is the day after tomorrow, right?」
「From what they said before they left, they should be back from their trip tomorrow. I’m worried about Shishō’s mood…」
「It’s okay. Maybe Nell-san will come back while smiling. And with some souvenirs!」
「Souvenirs, huh. Since it’s an elf village… something like, vegetables?」
「Ahaha, maybe! Still, I want to visit an elf village at least once~. I also want to meet the elves. I’m sure it’s an amazing fairytale-like place!」
The two let their imaginations run wild as they thinking about the elves that live in the deep forest. Unlike the long mountain road, they would reach the mansion soon. However, during this time, they enjoyed their time to the fullest.
―――― And the next day, the unprecedented two people returned.
~~~~~~~~~
―――― The 30th day of training.
「Sorry that we were away for a long time. Here are souvenirs from our trip. Take them.」
「Here, this, this, and this――」
When we returned from the elf resort, we handed out souvenirs to our disciples as a token of our gratitude. We gave them sweets, butter, meat, and other things that we thought we might have bought a little too much. Perhaps surprised by this surprise, Haru and Chinatsu are stiffening. Fuhaha, I’m glad that you are happy.
「T-Thank you very much.」
「Is it okay for us to receive this many?」
「Yeah, there are so many special products than we imagined. We weren’t sure what to choose, so we just bought everything.」
I was surprised to find that what used to be the elf village had undergone tremendous development. Should I say Hawaii with abundant trees? It’s been converted into a resort around a huge and clear lake that was originally the pride of the village, and it has become a place where you could enjoy both the forest and sunbathing. The moment we arrived, we were greeted by a group of beautiful young elves (age unknown). They welcomed us with smiles and even making us wore neck ornaments made of flowers that is the characteristic of their village. Just where did the strict characteristic go to? My image of elves was shattered at this point, overshadowed by the cheerful personality and scenery of Hawaii.
The huge lake is not only beautiful, but it also offers boating, canoeing, and even water skiing using the power of the water spirits that the elves use. Of course, it's okay to swim in a swimsuit. Every hour, a different stage is set up on the water, with dances and concerts by the spirits, and the lake alone is designed in such a way that tourists never get bored. I was impressed in a different way by how they were able to use those whimsical spirits to such an extent in order to make money. By the way, the elves in charge of the drink service here are all beautiful and all in swimsuits.
The facilities of the elf resort are not limited to this. Inside the resort, there is a ranch where chickens, pigs, cows, and other edible livestock are raised. ‘Elves are vegetarians? Which era are you talking about?’ They will laugh it off if you were to ask about it. They distribute only a small amount of their special high-class brand of Qui chicken, Qui pork, and Qui beef to each country, making them rare and hard to find unless you visit this place. According to the story, it seems that there is also an orchard that can only be cultivated here. In the restaurant, those meats and the processed cheese are prepared by skilled chefs. It was really delicious. By the way, all the staff here are also beautiful elves.
There are other domestic animals such as horses and earth dragons, and you can experience riding them. Well, it didn’t really matter to us since we can run faster than them. However, at the end of the day, there was a mixed race of those horses, earth dragons, and other monsters with good feet, and it became a kind of gambling place. Also, I could see some familiar big-shots there.
The inn where we stayed was also luxurious, and the suite room was―― there’s no stopping if I talk about it. Anyway, Alezel is making full use of the authority as the chieftain’s daughter and the threat as the Great Eight Demons to do whatever she wants. Well, for me, the one who was entertained, I can only say ‘Good job, do it more!’. A new wind has blown into the closed society of elf. I'll just think like that.
「Um… you went to the elf village, right?」
「Yeah, that’s right.」
「Yes.」
「No matter how you look at it, the contents of this box are an assorted set of meat…」
In Haru’s hands is a set of various parts of Qui beef that we purchased at the ranch. Also, we've bought enough for everyone.
「You see, it melts in your mouth. It was so delicious even if we just put the elf salt on it. Ah, we also bought the elf salt.」
「The food cooked by the elves was delicious, but I think it would taste even better if Haruna cooks it. Please do your best cooking it 」
「Okay! …… But, meat, even though they are elves?」
Yeah, meat. Sorry, Haru, but you should throw away the image of elves you have in your mind. I also have thrown it far away.
「Um, this big fruit that’s in my souvenir, this is a coconut, right…?」
「That! That’s my recommendation! There is a rich liquid inside, and you drink it with a straw through the hole! The outer skin is hard, but you can crack it open with your hand. It's sweet and delicious as it is, but you can mix it with other fruit juices!」
「That sounds delicious, but after all, it’s a coconut――」
「――I heard that the representative of the village brought it with the seedling from the southern country. Now they are called Quinuts and are popular among elves. Also, I saw many of them growing around the lake.」
「… It looks delicious. Nell-shishō sure has good taste. I will cool it and drink it later.」
「Right!?」
Ah, Chinatsu stopped thinking. Well, if you keep doing tsukkomi, you’ll be tired with just the elf resort alone. Even I decided to accept it as it is on the way. Alezel is too flexible in her thinking that she takes the initiative to adopt the good things of other countries. If I visit the resort next year, I’m sure there’ll be full of new surprises.
「Ah, by the way, Shishō. I have a message from Lily-senpai. It seems that she will thoroughly train Touko-chan as a warrior and as a woman, so she took Touko-chan to her territory… That’s why Touko-chan won’t participate in the selection tomorrow…」
「Wait, did I just hear a disturbing word? If I’m not wrong, her territory is――」
―― The world’s largest nightlife districts! It’s a place where I should never walk together with Nell.
「Nell-shishō, actually, I also have something to report to you…」
「Fufu, go ahead. I’m very tolerant now, so I won’t be surprised!」
Certainly, she wasn’t surprised about the matter with Touko. However, I think that’s just because she doesn’t understand the meaning.
And after this, Nell was surprised.
「They were amazing, huh~」
