Selens group isnt back yet?
Selen and her hunting group had gone out to hunt but still werent back yet. The days have been getting shorter recently, so it would be dark before long.
I hope theyre alright.
The hunting group has grown in number, so I was fairly certain they were running late for no real reasonhowever, when evening ca and the surroundings beca totally dark, I couldnt help but be anxious.
So, when Satin reported that the hunters have returned, I beca sowhat relieved. His next words made worry again though.
((They say only about a third of them are here))
((Did sothing happen??))
I hurried toward the northern gate, the gate closest to the forest.
Upon arriving, I did a cursory look. I failed to find Selen.
I subconsciously went near Balrath-san who was in the vanguard.
W-what happened!? Wheres Selen and the rest
Ahh, sorry for worrying you, village chief. Theyre all alright. Of course, that goes for Captain Selen too.
Balrath-sans words allowed to let out a sigh of relief.
If thats the case, where are the others?
Well
Balrath-san then proceeded to recount the days events.
We were hunting like usual when all of a sudden, we heard what seed like a roar and a scream from further inside the forest. We didnt fully believe soone else besides us were in the monster-infested forest, but we still decided to investigate. At the scene, we saw two groups fighting one another: a group of enraged monsters called mad grizzliesand a group of elves.
Elves!?
The elven race was considered to be related to us, the human race. They had long, pointy ears; had a really long lifespan; and most of them was said to have beautiful features.
It was said that back in the day, they interacted with us. However, oppression due to their appearance have apparently made them cease all interactions.
So, they were hiding out here in this monster-infested forest?
We decided to help the elves out. It didnt take long for our combined forces to defeat the whole group of mad grizzles. Our group was mostly unhurt, but a lot of the elves sustained heavy wounds. The elves ntioned that they have a settlent deep in the forest, but going back while so many of them are injured seed extrely dangerous. At that point, Captain Selen offered to escort them up to their settlent.
But they thought that doing so without any notice to us would cause us to worry. As such, they decided to let so of the hunting group return.
So, right now, Selen is headed to the elves settlent?
Yes. Theyve probably reached it by now too. But nights in the forest are extraordinarily dangerous, so they might spend the night there and return tomorrow.
An elven settlent, huhI wonder what thats like. Well, in any case, Im just glad that Selen and the hunting group are safe.
The next day, Selen and the others returned.
Huh? Arent there more of them? So many of them look unfamiliarwait a minute! Theyre elves!
Are you Luke-dono, the village chief?
Ahh, y-yes!
One of the elves stepped forward and started talking.
It was my first ti to talk to an elf, so I was nervous. Unfortunately, that made reply in a high-pitched voice.
My na is Philianius l Rebore Leonius Serenelare.
So long! Theres no way Im going to rember that!
I realize its long, so please call Philia.
Oh thank goodness.
Philia-san, now that I can rember.
They looked like warriors.
They wore leather armor and had bows hanging on their backs.
Much like what I was told, elves were indeed beautiful. Even among them though, Philia-sans elegance, her pretty eyebrows, her height, her coolness, all of it combined made her sothing else.
We are deeply indebted to your villagers. On behalf of our leader, weve co here to give our thanks to you.
I see. I appreciate you going to the trouble. We dont have much in this village, but please make yourselves feel at ho.
Like that, I showed around the village the very first elves I t.
TL note: Yeah, I just gave up on that na.
