"So you think it's human fault that that land was rough?

"That's what happens when you talk about it."

After listening to Gwendorf, Larna's first voice was coloured with surprise. At Fairtoose, Larna has given her more than a certain knowledge of the composition of this world, but even with her brains, it was a difficult story to understand. I can't help but look at Gwendorf as she squeezes her eyes.

"Is that so weird, what's my story?

"Oh, excuse me..."

The pointed Larna blushes and wolves.

"But in a land without spirits, human will acts as the strongest force field, etc."

"I'm just saying that I still have those theories. I think I'm a credible theory."

Here is what Gwendorf heard from nearby spirits:

Here in the conflict zone of Garchlon, the city, known as Eutreticht, on the outskirts of the relatively northwest, was a relatively peaceful land, even in the conflict zone. There was nothing like doing business with Romansland and others as a city, but it was geographically difficult to become a battlefield, and at best it was enough for a man to be hunted somewhat by conscription and such. The people of Utreticht are a group that originally specializes in hunting with dogs, and it seems to have been their custom to catch prey when entering the woods near Pilevos. That alien dog, he said, was still very normal then.

Things changed about 20 years ago. I didn't go to boost agriculture as a city, but of course I grow foods that I can't cover with hunting. Those foods suddenly stopped growing. They couldn't live without food, and they expanded their hunting range to make up for the shortfall.

Then, naturally, there will be a snag that never occurred before. It was from another city, or from nature itself, or from demons. And one day, he defeated a demon he had never seen, at great sacrifice, and a dog who had accidentally spoken of the meat, deformed like the present, which he tormented violently. The people of the city were frightened at first by its appearance, but because the dogs did not disobey orders, but rather hunted down demons more competently, they only became receptive to that alien change at any time.

And time flies. Having gained a deformed dog to hunt more aggressively, they became less conscious of avoiding strife with other cities. And their growth eventually develops into full-scale war. They totally assumed they were good as a hunting people by using dogs to hunt down demons, but they were only dealing with less wise demons and warcraft. In the wars of the human opponents, they did not realize until defeat that the methods of battle themselves were different. Needless to say, the city of Utrecht was defeated.

then. Breaking their pride, they found no hope in everything. As usual, no crops grew in the city, and many left with cuts on the city. The casualties of war also combined and the population declined to 1/3 in just 10 years. And here alone, Utreticht became frequently subjected to the raids of warcraft and demons that had been the subject of hunting. Until now, their regular hunting kept the number of demons and warcraft below a certain number, but the neighborhood was turned into a nest of demons and warcraft because the inhabitants of Utreticht stopped actively hunting. It was some luck that the Alphilis didn't see any harm until they entered the city, thanks to the demons' vigilance over Gwendorf and Lisa avoiding as many demonic directions as she could.

And the inhabitants of Utreticht are now more frightened than they need to be to raid demons and warcraft, and live in cages in the city every day. The security is disturbing and yet there is a strange sense of union. It was an obsessive emotion that attacked someone who had accidentally visited this town and if you didn't suck them up until you squashed them to the bone marrow, you wouldn't get the resources to just live. The point is, I could rephrase that this town itself is a major trap.

Those who know the circumstances will never approach Utrecht. And now Eutreticht is called: "Town of Ant Hell" and.

For those reasons they are unusually frightened and persevering in their pursuit of demonic raids. Most of all, even where Emerald was not supposedly a demon, the Alphilis would have seen the same thing. That's what this town is all about.

And hearing this story, Gwendorf remembered what Sky Dragon Maia, also his best friend, once said.

"(Gwen... there is a land in this earth that no one can shelter. And it just happens. I always see the earth from the sky, so I know better. Life doesn't lean on that kind of land, but it seems that the place is gradually increasing. It's like the earth is eaten by worms. I don't know how fast it might be while we're alive, but I don't feel right)"

Called Sky Dragon, it was her unique opinion that always looked down on the earth with the sky as a residence. Gwendorf hasn't told anyone because he's likely to complain as a true dragon when he says this, but he doesn't really like flying in the sky. It was more comfortable resting feathers on the ground and surrounded by natural scents and bird chirps than that.

"(But Maia, can't you even say that about this? The problem I've been putting up on the shelf is what makes me feel so happy to be here)"

Gwendorf was before Larna, roaring alone. Larna asks questions as she peeks at Gwendorf like that.

"Um, Master Gwendorf"

"Mm-hmm. You got it figured out. What?"

"Well, I don't get the idea that humans have that much impact on the land, but what the hell is the reason?

"Hmm. I'm not the first to mention this, it's another true dragon."

Gwendorf speaks further.

His people once described humans as very interesting creatures.

- Humans are unknown creatures.

and. The other True Dragon laughed at what was funny referring to a species that could not fly, had a short lifespan, and died casually as a creature to the extent of illness, but only he insisted strongly.

- They don't have any attributes. It can therefore have all the attributes. And the power of their will may be even more powerful than ours. For they who do not live for a hundred years will remain in this world forever, untrained and evil spirits. Without the help of magic? How awesome the hell this is. I want to know more about people.

The true dragon, who so claimed, divided himself from his companions and went down to the human world as a human being a long time ago.

"(Yes, his name is' The Wing Thrower, Notice '. I didn't know what he was talking about at the time, but now I do. Maia remembered his story so well that she came up with this theory)"

Gwendorf is going to tell Larna the theory.

"Look, Larna. This earth is made of very diverse organisms."

"Yes, I know that."

"What's the biggest of them all?

"It will, of course, be this earth itself"

"Exactly"

Gwendorf nods.

"So it is the earth itself that most affects it. To put it another way, you're like a spirit. But you know what the second biggest thing is?

"No... is it a true dragon?

"Me too, I used to think so. Instead, almost every true dragon would think so."

Gwendorf stares at Larna with such gentle eyes as he tells the child.

"But there was a true dragon who said it was human."

"What!?

"Yeah, everybody thought so. Even I am. But when you think about it, it's very convincing."

Gwendorf left one between them there.

"Introduction. If this assumption is correct, in this land without the Spirit, human thought will affect the land. Then what do you think is the emotion that is currently swirling in this land?

"... is it something like giving up, frightening, despairing?

"Right, that's the one raised by Fairtoose. You're probably right, I guess."

Praised by Gwendorf, Larna dyes her cheeks to the vermilion.

"Human emotion is a strange thing, and it can be so strong that you can't control it yourself, can it?

"Yes, that's for sure"

Larna remembers her emotions toward Alphilis. Larna can't even explain to herself why she's so fascinated by Alphilis. It's just that she fascinates me. Even if that emotion was supposedly evil in the world, I couldn't help myself. Larna is even crazier because Alphilis treats her as usual without discriminating while also knowing her emotions like that.

"And human emotions can't be turned down by themselves when they have a negative chain. If you're on your own, you can still feel that way about more than one person at the same time, especially. Because elements like negativity and darkness attract people and don't stop."

"I can see that, too. Because I am a user of dark magic."

"You must have some real feelings around there, too. Anything that deals with dark sorcery has to be much stronger in spirit than a concurrent sorcerer. Besides, this town, like I said earlier, has an unstoppable negative chain. So even residents who are not supposed to have anything to do with it are going crazy"

"What can I do?

Larna asked a question with a serious face. It is Larna's mood that she wants to try if she can do something about it. She is also usually a very heartfelt personality. In dealing with dark magic, it is rare for those who are so kind in heart. That's all Rana's mental strength showed was tough.

But Gwendorf's reply didn't go as she expected.

"... I don't know"

"No!"

"No, I'm sorry, but I really don't know. I don't know about using witchcraft, and I don't know how to have enough events to break this negative chain..."

"Gwen ~"

That's when Irmatal woke up scrubbing his sleepy eyes. Irmatal strangely did not now recognize Gwendorf as his own father. Good looking after brother, he treats me with such attitudes. Its Irmatal pulls the hem of Gwendorf's white robe.

"That, what?

"Huh?"

When Gwendorf and Rana saw the direction Ilmatal pointed, there stood a huge shining woman nestled in the city.

"Is that... What is that?

"How about it! It's an impulse outburst!

Gwendorf wings out, ready to fly. I grab that his arm in a hurry, and Larna asks what's going on.

"What is a runoff?

"Spirit swords are made by enclosing superior spirits and other beings. Whether or not I stay with them is lucky, but it can react to strong user emotions. I guess that impulse reacted to some emotion of Emerald"

"It doesn't seem serene..."

When Larna saw it, a huge woman who seemed more than three times as likely to reach out and smash the house with thunder. More than 10 houses are quickly shattered and scattered with thunder emitted from your hands.

"How do I stop?

"I don't know! But I'm dangerous. Leave me alone, I'll storm around until I run out of my powers. About that city should wipe it out easily!

"No!"

"Anyway, I'm going to go protect the Alphilis and the others! Oh, then I can't go back to normal. I asked for Irmatal, Larna!

"I understand!

That's all I have to say, Gwendorf rolled the wind and headed to the Alphilis and the others at full speed.
