Madman in a Fantasy World

118. alfheim

Back in time, it was the morning of the third day.

Before joining the elves, we headed to the smithy first. The uncle said it was two days if it was short, so I went the day before, just in case, but asked for one more day, so I came back exactly 24 hours later.

“Are you alive, uncle?”

I couldn’t see the man inside the store, so I called out loud. Then the man came out of the door behind the cash register. As if he had been hammering until just now, the heat coming through the crack in the open door could reach here.

“…Huh. Was it you?”

“I came just in time. How did it go?”

“I don’t know what kind of monster it is made of, but it was so hard that it took some time to make.”

The uncle was making a face that was refreshing for grumbling that it was difficult. At the same time, two leather scabbards and two daggers with blades wrapped in cloth appeared on the counter.

“Check it out.”

At the uncle’s confident words, Luna grabbed a dagger and peeled off the cloth covering the blade. The exposed appearance of the sword was distinctly greenish, unlike before forging, and the wave pattern that formed the entire surface of the sword was impressive.

When Luna was testing the grip and sharpness of the sword from the side. I held the remaining sack in my hand. So, of course, an information window popped up in front of me.

◈ Item Information

Name: none

Grade: A

Description: A dagger made by the imperial blacksmith Smith. The material used was the shell of the sea monster Green Iron Demon. Characterized by strength and beauty.

It seems that the name is not decided, so it appears as none. I don’t know what a green iron demon is, but I’m guessing that it’s a class A monster, even if it’s not good enough to be a class A.

“What do you think?”

“… that’s really good.”

yes. it looks like It must be satisfying to see the tail and ears chattering rather than being quiet. Now that she’s got her weapon, Luna won’t be useless in the upcoming World Tree event. I paid the bill to my uncle. The old man took the gold coin I gave him and talked.

“So. When are you planning to change your weapon?”

“I’m leaving today to get weapon materials.”

“You know that if you want to use it, you have to get B-grade or higher materials, right?”

“Don’t worry. I’ll bring you rare materials you’ve never touched before.”

I’ll cut off the arm of someone who becomes a god and bring it to you.

“hehehehe…”

“·······?”

***

After leaving the forge, I left the empire and headed to the location I had heard from the elf in advance. There, the elves who came first were waiting for us.

“Are you here early?”

“Because I have to prepare… yo.”

Her ears were still green when she spoke softly to me.

Was it the first evening? One of the rogue elves secretly went out and fixed his ears, but I caught him and he became Kamplin again. Do you fix it alone so you don’t go anywhere? As long as I live with my eyes wide open, I cannot wait for Kamplin to return to being a dwarf.

“What are you ready for?”

“Teleport.”

As she spoke, she looked over her shoulder to see two idiots drawing on the floor. The shape was in the form of a magic circle, and it looked similar to the teleportation magic circle I had seen at the academy before.

‘I wondered how he got here, but it seems he used a teleport.’

Well, to go by wagon, you have to travel a very long distance, but elves who don’t go out of the forest for more than a month cannot travel by wagon.

“When will it be completed?”

“It takes about 10 minutes.”

“When do you say you don’t have time, when do you relax like this?”

Why are the guys who tried to cut off my limbs and take me away with excuses such as saying that they obviously don’t have time to play with me, that the world’s survival depends on it, so I have to move as quickly as possible, why are they so relaxed today?

“Because there are people who haven’t arrived yet.”

“Anyone who didn’t arrive?”

Is there anyone else to go from here? Who the hell is it that even though the assembly time is over, they still haven’t come. This is why people lose if they live kindly. Why are you talking about someone else now? If I knew there was someone else, I would have slept and woke up now. Fuck.

I started to get angry, and right before my anger exploded, three elves and a group of them were walking from afar at the right timing.

The male elf who seemed to be the captain in the front looked at the female elf behind me and his eyes widened. The man who ran in panting, made a fuss about what had happened.

“Evangeline…? What happened to those ears?!”

“…it’s nothing.”

“It’s no big deal that you, a great warrior, are acting like that!”

At the reunion after three days, the two of us seemed to have a lot to say, so we avoided our seats for a while. So, that’s when something caught my eye.

“Yeah, why are you here?!”

“That’s what I want to ask.”

The guy who was supposed to have been taken away by the imperial family a few days ago stood proudly in front of me as if he had already been released. On the back, as always, with a heroine.

“To see a terrorist walking around as if nothing happened to the theft. The world is so heinous.”

“That, I’m not the culprit! It’s an impersonation!”

yes you know because that’s what i did

“Why are you even involved this time in the first place!”

“Mole? Lou.”

I honestly don’t know either. Is this also a trap, like the nomination request in the past? Or, what kind of insurance? Insurance in case one person rejects it, like a graduate putting in a college application. But to do that, I was told to cut off my limbs and take her away. No matter how much I think about it, I don’t know the English language.

“Come to think of it… the fact that you’re here means that the lice are also there, right?”

As he spoke, the toilet’s eyes rolled to the side, and soon he saw Richie talking to Tia in his eyes. Even after being treated so badly, it seems that I still haven’t let go of my lingering feelings. Like that ex-boyfriend who broke up like that, he’s soggy, so his likability goes down.

The moment the toilet was about to turn toward Liche, the elf who came first spoke to us.

“Ready to depart.”

“That’s right? Ouch, what should I do because I feel sorry for this~?”

“Why now?”

That’s how we got on top of the giant magic circle and teleported towards Alfheim.

***

The elves showed gasps right after the teleport. Even though six elves operated the teleport, they still looked like that. It was a part that showed how much fuel economy was teleporting with that. And I realize again how great Lucia is, who operates it several times by herself.

However, the place to teleport with such poor gas mileage was in the middle of the forest. He said he was in a hurry, so why did he teleport to this place when teleporting to the middle of the town would not be enough? i shot her

“Hey. They said they were teleporting.”

“That… Because of Yggdrasil’s barrier, we cannot teleport near Alfheim.”

“It’s useless.”

“·······.”

Anyway, we have to walk from here. To say I had to teleport and walk. It was really absurd in itself.

Still, I was bored on the way, so I looked around to see if there was anything to see in the forest, but maybe this was also due to the barrier, and there was no wind blowing in the forest. I can’t see the goblins, the regulars of the forest, and I can’t see any wild animals like wild boars or squirrels.

Continue walking through the forest like that for 20 minutes. The elves who were leading the way stopped at a certain boundary.

“Everyone, please hold hands. From here on, you must be connected to us before you can go inside.”

At the elf’s command, I grabbed the male elf’s hand as he was urinating on the female elf, and with my other hand, I grabbed the others’ hands. Then things I couldn’t see until just now appeared in front of my eyes. The forest, which had originally been green, became even brighter, and a village appeared in front of me before I knew it.

After that, I saw a large tree, and needless to say, it was the world tree, the divine tree that the elves worship as a god. Needless to say, the size was great. To some extent, it reached the clouds. If it’s that big, it should be visible from anywhere in the forest, but the reason we couldn’t see it must be because of the barrier.

“Wow…”

Yui was amazed. Even if Luna and Richie didn’t make a sound, they must be exclaiming inwardly. The buildings were built on top of trees, something you wouldn’t see in a human country, and Alfheim itself wasn’t something anyone could come in and see. It was amazing to see things in reality that I had only seen in graphics on the monitor.

“Meet the Great Warrior Evangeline and the Great Warrior Falun!”

As I walked to the entrance while touring the village, the elves who stood guard at the entrance saluted.

“Did something happen?”

“Nothing happened!”

“Where is he and what is he doing?”

“I went out to inspect the seal in the morning and haven’t returned yet!”

“Haa… Again. I told you not to train near the seal. I got it.”

The elf called Paln sighed in exhaustion. If you say that, you’re probably referring to the Weapon Master. I wondered what it looked like, but unfortunately it seems it’s not in town right now.

“The humans in the back…”

Then, one of the guards saw us huddled together and raised a question. Among them, he was staring at me in particular, and he blew a taffy at me asking what he was looking at. Then, how to recognize human curse and frown. Even though they’re elves and humans, they’re different in appearance anyway, and there’s nothing special about them, but they flirt like they’re curious.

“This is the human of the example Yggdrasil said.”

“The authors…”

“We are going to have an audience with Yggdrasil from now on.”

“Okay. I’ll take care of the return to mission procedure.”

After a short conversation, we went inside, following the elf entering the village. When I entered the village, I finally saw other elves, but my eyes kept going there. Elves that I couldn’t find anywhere else even after washing my eyes were here, everywhere I turned my eyes, so I kept looking at them. Besides, all the elves have smooth faces, so it’s nice to see them.

Following the elves who were ahead of them, they arrived at the big tree they saw at the entrance. It was in front of the world tree. There was a circular staircase next to the World Tree to go up, and the elf standing in front of it warned us.

“You are strangers, and as Yggdrasil-nim personally invited you, I will not force you to do so.

I’m sorry, I came here with the intention of offending you today. I went up the stairs for a long time without saying anything on purpose, and at some point where the stairs were cut off, there was a gate about 3m in size. Looking at the location, it seemed that a building had been built inside the World Tree.

“Did you make a place to have an audience with God by digging into God’s flesh?”

I said it as if I was talking to myself, but I guess my ears are really good, so they listened to me and even answered me.

“This was made by Yggdrasil himself.”

“Hey…”

For a moment, self-harm, masochist, schizophrenia, etc. came to mind, but I quickly erased them. Since there is no problem, he must have dug out his own flesh.

‘Then I won’t say anything about breaking a few branches later.’

As I pondered over what to bring, two elves knelt in front of the gate and said.

“The great warriors Evangeline and Falun. We have returned from the mission with the humans now. We would like to have an audience with the great Yggdrasil for the report of the mission.”

And a moment of silence followed. Shortly thereafter, the two elves stood up, grabbed each door, and pushed. Clearly, there was no answer coming from within. The moment he went inside after the elves with the thought that he said he was a god and went out on his own.

[welcome. Gentiles.]

A voice rang in my head.
