That Person. Later on…-Chapter 5

Chapter 5 – Everyday Life In The Village

Two weeks have passed since I came to the Elf village. For me who longing to meet people, this two weeks was very fun. Everything was fresh and new because it was the first time I saw an Elf village. Every house was on the top of a tree, but there is no ladder or stairs. I wonder how they can enter the house, but it seems they are using wind magic to float themselves in.

Apparently Elves have a high aptitude for wind magic, come to think of it Sarona-san was also using this magic to attack the Dirty-man’s group. Since I don’t have magic power, I can’t use any magic. I was being arried by Yuyuna to enter his house, it’s really embarassing. By the way Yuyuna and Ruruna provided me a place to stay in their house.

I was also suprised by the food. They didn’t seem to eat meat that much, instead there are various herbs and plants that are abundant in the forest. They eat fruits as it is or make a jam with it. They also make dried fruits to be stored as a preserved food.

Hmm, as I thought every Elf was handsome and beauties. Though Siena still has an appearance of a child, there is no doubt she will also become a beauty in the future.

Nevertheless, the most beautiful Elf is still Sarona-san.

According to Yuyuna and Ruruna, Sarona-san is the strongest Elf in this village. Shes also the top executive of the village defense force called “Morito”. Sarona-san is amazing as expected.

(TL : I'm still not sure, whether Morito is a corps name or a title, but I assumed it as a corps name at the moment)

After one week, the two noticed my feeling towards Sarona-san. Well it goes without saying because I’m always looking at Sarona-san. They had been grinning all the way on my back, just leave me alone. At the same time I’m feeling grateful to the two because they have told me many things about Sarona-san.

Or rather they are worried about Sarona-san. Apparently she is too serious with her job as Morito and seems not interested in love, this is a big problem, indeed.

Miss-Serious it is, that’s also nice. . .

When I asked whether I was good enough to be her partner, they were spechless for some reason. It seems they will support me though.

After this one week, with the help of these two I always try to finding occasion to spend my time with Sarona-san. We are talking about various things like a story about myself or Sarona-san, also going together to collect herbs and edible wild plants in the forest. It was quite a happy time. When she is worrying about me, I’m really happy. . .

But this happy time will come to the end before we noticed it. The malice that I felt the first time when I came to the village was taking shape and slowly approached us.

At the night of that day, I and Sarona-san came to Yuyuna and Ruruna house only to find they was in bed, of course they were not doing anything illicit. They seemed to be drunk after drinking some liquor. They are brooding on something about Saron-san, but when I asked they never gave me a response. Didn't you say you will help me? I didn’t understand the circumstances so I can’t do anything about it.

The next morning, I wake up but nobody was in the house. I went out to check the outside and saw everybody was gathered in a circle at the center of village. I who can’t use magic clung to tree to get off. This is unsightly so I hope nobody see it.

When I approached the circle I found that there are two people, man and woman on the ring. The woman is Sarona-san and the man, is someone I didn’t know. It seems Sarona-san was just about to fight the man. I don’t know the situation so I was looking for Yuyuna and Ruruna and found them right behind Sarona-san.

[Yuyuna, Ruruna, can you tell me what the heck is going on?] (Wazu)

[Hmm? Oh you woke up. Well it’s just as you can see] (Yuyuna)

[That guy Gazuna was aiming for the top position in Morito and challenged Sarona to a duel with a condition the loser has to leave the village] (Ruruna)

[Huh? Leave the village? Is Sarona-san accepted it?] (Wazu)

It’s hard for me to believe

[Oh, it’s looks like you are quite worried. Well it’s has been decided since yesterday night, and the preparation also has been completed. That Gazuna bastard, Sarona is just like a relatives to us. Oh well

just rest assured because Sarona won’t lose to a guy like him] (Yuyuna)

[Yeah, Gazuna has a bad personality, I also doesn’t like him! no matter how much he want that position, without respect and camaraderie he is not qualified] (Ruruna)

The two had been telling me that, I look at the man called Gazuna. He has a handsome face, I don’t want to admit it but as expected of an Elf. He is lifting the edge of his mouth, smiling an ugly smile as if he is laughing to what is about to happen with Sarona-san.

Also Sarona-san’s clothes, she is wearing an overall short up and down to ease the movement (the line from her thight to her foot. . . it’s spendid) and Gazuna had covered his body with a black robe down from the neck. I think he is hiding something below his robe ~ I’m sure about it.

I look at the surrounding and then---

[Ah, it’s impossible. This fellow is no good]

[ [Right?] ]

---they say so while whispering and holding their laugh.
