246 – Summer. festival. Fireworks #21

There was a nymph at the entrance of the village.

I was wearing a black robe.

She was a nymph with black hair and black eyes.

“I see, that guy is Tenebris.”

Are you the same age as Arno?

No, because nymphs generally all look young.

Looking at his appearance, he looks like he’s between twelve and fifteen, but there’s a chance he’s actually over twenty.

Then I got curious.

“Arnoi, how old are you now?”

“The nymph of the ditch… ! A bar as old as a small ditch… . If you grow as old as the palm tree, you will become a nymph of the stream… !”

“No, not like that. Ludens, I’m asking how old you are legally.”

“Arnoi… . I will be twenty one this year… !”

Arnoy was twenty-one.

I thought I was at least 25 years old because I was in the 8th grade.

Nothing about him fits my expectations.

Soon muhh-smiling Arnoi.

“This Arnoi is a nymph smart enough to enter early… . None of the nymphs entered school faster than this Arnoi… !”

Twelve-year-old Arnoy must have been pretty smart.

But why haven’t I graduated yet?

In many ways, there were many things I wanted to ask.

Right now, the guy named Tenebris in front of me should be more important than Arnoi.

“I am offering sugar and honey to the Goddess of Darkness and Shadow and her chief servant, Tenebris…” ! If you refuse… This is what I do… !”

Tenebris sprayed the floor with what looked like a canteen hanging from his waist.

Black water gushing out.

It soon transforms into a human or beast form and growls.

“That… .”

Isn’t it the shadow monster that attacked us earlier?

I wondered why there were such monsters in Enio’s shadow, and it seemed that that guy named Tenebris had created them.

– Kerruk… !

– Grrr… .

“This is the power this ink nymph, Tenebris, received from the goddess of darkness… ! It’s all about bowing their heads… !”

He shouted like an imposing villain.

The villagers trembled while watching the monsters made of ink.

“What… .”

“I don’t have much sugar this time… .”

It was a time when I thought it was a crisis situation in many ways.

Arnoy made a pot and ran out.

“Tenebris, the ink nymph… ! I am Arnoi, the nymph of the ditch… !”

“Ah, you… !”

Arnoi and Tenebris faced each other.

Then, they greet each other by touching each other’s foreheads.

Megaira, who had drawn her weapon, asked cautiously.

“What are they doing now?”

To that I can only answer briefly.

“Nymphs seem to be able to read the opponent’s age, evolutionary level, and simple thoughts by touching their foreheads like that. It is their own greeting.”

“Huh, that’s amazing.”

Megaira nodded.

As if the greeting was over soon, Tenebris raised his hand.

“It’s been a while since the nymphs migrated to Ludens to see another nymph… ! The Goddess will welcome Sister Arnoi… !”

“You mean the goddess… ? Is the Goddess here? !? That’s a really big thing… !”

“Nyx, the goddess of darkness, is the one who took Tenebris and gave her name and strength… ! Thanks to that, this Tenebris was able to continue his role as an errand boy for the gods… . Sister Arnoi is also going to be with Nix-sama soon… !”

“Are you saying that this Arnoi can be an errand boy for the gods…? ?”

Arnoy trembled as if he was moved.

Then he said

“Being an errand boy for the gods… . Being the companion nymph of the gods is a greater honor than any other honor for us nymph sisters… ! It’s a very happy thing… !”

“It is like that… ! Well, it’s to punish the mean people who haven’t met their quota of tribute before then… ! Then, the Arnois sisters are also ink nymphs… . No, you can become a poisonous nymph… !”

Poison nymphani.

It was a time when I was slightly admiring a very lethal name.

—- Grrr… !

Maybe it didn’t like the light of the torches in the village, but the ink monster in Tenebris started rampaging.

The townsfolk shout in bewilderment as they knock down the torches and struggle.

“Evacuate the elderly and weak!”

“Those who can fight, take up arms!”

an imminent situation.

I pulled out the sword at my waist.

Then, he lightly cut through the rampaging ink monster.

Seruk.

Chow

It feels like slashing a monster made of water.

I actually did.

“I-cutting this Tenebris’ ink… ! Sister Arnoy, let’s take down that black-haired man together… ! Then, the opportunity to become a servant of the Goddess will come… !”

Tenebris was deeply indignant at what had happened to his men.

I urge Arnoi to defeat me, but what is surprising is that Arnoi started to worry a lot.

“To be able to become a servant of the goddess… . For nymphs, there is no better proposal than that… .”

Barr-trembling Arnoi.

It was when I was puzzled by this appearance.

Said the very old and weary Knight Mountain.

“Hall hall… . Nymphs… Beings created as messengers of the gods… . In this world, I like being used by the gods more than anything else. Better than that sweet honey candy.”

Was there anything nymphs liked more than honey?

I was amazed in many ways by this amazing fact.

To prefer being the messenger of the gods to honey candy.

Indeed, it was understandable that Arnoi was worried.

“As a race born to be used by the gods, being faithful to that role is their duty and the joy of life. I like to run horses. Just like fish like to swim.”

“is it.”

It was when I thought that maybe Arnoi might betray me.

Arnoy said.

“This Arnoi, a chance to be an errand boy for the gods… . I think it’s a very good opportunity, but I can’t attack the chef Viktor… .”

“… … .”

I was quite surprised.

To think that Arnoy turned down an offer sweeter than honey candy.

It seems that the surprised Tenebris did the same.

“Arnoi… ! There is nothing better for nymphs than to be used by the gods… ! If you go against your nature, you might regret it later… !”

“… This Arnoi wants to become a university nymph who is smarter than anyone else… ! Not an errand boy… . I want to be the one who runs errands… !”

Arnoy’s ambitions were quite large.

Do you want to be someone who runs errands instead of being an errand boy?

But you have to have that level of ambition to have a stake in my NV company.

But Tenebris had a look of great astonishment.

He opens his mouth wide and shouts.

“Poem, that’s blasphemy… ! Blasphemy is the greatest sin among the laws of the Nymph sisters… . Arnoi, the nymph of the ditch, is now the enemy of this Tenebris… ! It’s all rushing… !”

Tenebris seemed to prioritize attacking Arnoi over the others.

It was a time when I thought I should protect Arnoi.

“Be clear, 《titch water》!”

Arnoy hit the floor with his palm.

Then, the ink monsters that were attacking Arnoi became transparent and then lost their shape and faded away.

Charle.

“This, these Tenebris’ minions… !?”

Surprised Tenebris.

Enio next to me was also surprised.

“Arnoi has that kind of power? Did you know Viktor-kun?”

“yes.”

Earlier, I had a conversation with Domina about Arnoy’s career path.

According to Domina, Arnoi excels in practical skills.

I heard that when I just entered Ludens, I was called a promising player.

However, his handwriting is so bad that he can’t graduate.

“I took lessons for eight years at Ludens, which is said to become a superhuman by learning three years. It’s rather strange to be weak without any strength.”

Tenebris spoke soon.

“Gee, oh, I’m stepping down today… !”

* * *

“Long live Arnoi, nymph of the great ditch… !”

“You are our hero!”

When I first met them, they were people who tried to squeeze Arnoi.

Now, towards Arnoi, he brought a lot of food such as snacks and fruits.

“This Arnoi has become a great nymph… !”

It seems so.

Anyway, I found out that Arnoi has an advantage against ink monsters.

Then, wouldn’t it be possible to approach the mirror that is guarded by the ink monsters?

Then there is no need to delay any longer.

“Quickly get out of here.”

“You Arnoi, you haven’t eaten any fruit yet… .”

“I don’t have time for that.”

Grumpy headed back to the mirror with Arnoi, Enio and the twin sisters. The monsters I met on the way there were cut down or neutralized.

“Be clear, 《titch water》!”

Since Arnoi serves enough for one person, the stability of the party changes.

It was time to approach the mirror thinking that I could just break through.

Sseuseuk.

Something sharp came flying and stuck under my feet.

It was a dagger.

As I raise my head, someone in a black robe emerges from the darkness.

“Tisiphone.”

“Victor. And, Enio-sama.”

It was Tisiphone.

Soon after, Megaira said in a tone of astonishment.

“I never thought I would be in a place like this. Tisiphone, was it true that you betrayed Enio and joined the shadow side?”

“… … .”

Tisiphone did not respond to her sister’s sarcasm.

He just pulled out the dagger from his waist and spoke to Enio.

“I don’t want to hurt Enio-nim. Enio, please stay here. After all, sooner or later, everything from the outside world will be here.”

The dagger reflected in the moonlight was sad.

In any case, I feel the will to stop even by defeating his master, Enio.

“You dare to point a weapon at Enio!”

“… betrayer!”

Megaira and Alecto were indignant.

Tisiphone’s will was firm.

“I did not betray Enio-sama. Rather, I am the one who truly thinks of Enio-sama. I didn’t expect it to be revealed in a place like this.”

After- Tisiphone sighed.

the guy said

“Actually, the real Enio-sama is the one outside. Enio-sama, who is here right now, is more like a false shadow. It’s just turning around. That day, there.”
