"I've always felt that it's great that my vocation isn't that of a shepherd or a wheat farmer. Because that kind of work never ends, but ours is different. I thought, there must be some way to bring that tree back to life." In three... no, it should be cut down within two years, and then..."
After Kirito finished speaking, Zero continued
"Go to Sakarya's swordsmanship tournament."
"Come back with a standard sword and scare the people in the village!" Eugeo added.
"What, don't you think so too, Eugeo?"
"How can I just let you two be handsome."
At this time, Alice suddenly turned her head, with a suspicious look on her face:
"Hey, what are you three talking about without telling me?"
"No, no. Are we saying we haven't had lunch yet~ right?"
"Uh-huh……"
"That's it……"
"I can't stand you, it's only been a short time since I started walking. Look, you can already see the river ahead." The three of them looked in the direction Alice pointed with the grass ears, and found that there was indeed a sparkling water shaking in front of the road. with.
This is the Lulu River originating from the Mountain Range at the End, flowing through the east of Rulid Village and going south to Sakarya.
The road is also divided into two here, the road on the right will lead to the Eastern Forest after crossing the North Rulid Bridge, and the road on the left will extend north along the west bank of the river.
The goal of the few people is, of course, to continue heading north.
Eugeo, who came to the branch point, knelt down by the river, and put his right hand into the transparent gurgling water.
The midsummer sun was so powerful that even the river, which was still quite cold in early spring, became warmer.
It would be comfortable to take off his clothes and jump into the river, but he couldn't do it in front of Alice.
"According to the water temperature, it doesn't seem like there will be ice flowing over." As soon as Eugeo turned his head and said this, Kirito immediately pouted and retorted, "That's why we have to go to the big cave at the root."
"We've come here, it would be a pity if we don't look for the root cause..." Zero pouted,
"That's fine, but we have to go back to the village before the evening bell rings. Well... then when Solus comes directly above, we have to go back."
"I can't help it, then we have to go faster!" After Alice finished speaking, she stepped on the soft grass and walked forward, while the other three followed her quickly.
The protruding trees on the left shielded the sunlight like a canopy, and together with the cool air emanating from the river on the right, the four of them could move forward comfortably even though Solus was hanging high in the air.
The shore, which is about a mel wide, is covered with short summer weeds, and there are few stones or holes on the road to stumble.
It was only now that Eugeo discovered that the area behind the Twin Pools was so easy to walk, but he had never been there before, which made him feel a little unbelievable.
The northern mountain peak, which is forbidden for children to pass alone according to the village regulations, is still far ahead.
So even if you walk to the other side of the pool, the adults should not be angry, but it may be out of respect for the norms——
Yes, it is the awe that makes children's footsteps usually stop when they are far from the northern peaks.
I usually complain with Kirito and Zero three that the adults only care about the village's norms, but after thinking about it carefully, I realize that the three of them never even thought of violating the norms or taboos.
Today's little adventure is already an unprecedented challenge for them.
Eugeo started to feel a little uneasy at this moment, so he looked at Rei, Kirito, and Alice who were walking in front, only to find that the three of them were singing a shepherd's song with ease.
What the hell did these three guys do? Is there nothing to make them worry?Thinking of this, Eugeo couldn't help but want to sigh.
"Hey, let me tell you—" As soon as Eugeo said, the three people who hadn't stopped in front turned their heads to look at him.
"What's the matter, Eugeo?" Alice asked, tilting her head,
Eugeo looked at the face of his childhood sweetheart, and suddenly wanted to scare the doubtful Alice, so he deliberately asked in a threatening tone: "It's far away from the village... I don't know if there will be any ferocious beasts here. ?”
"Huh~? I haven't heard of such a thing." Alice glanced to the side, but Kirito just shrugged slightly: "Hmm...Donetti's grandpa seems to say that there is I've seen a giant long-clawed bear, where is it from?"
Zero thought about it, and said, "That's near the black apple tree in the east, right? And it was almost ten years ago."
"Even if there are wild beasts here, at most they are small things like four-eared foxes. Oh, Eugeo, you are really cowardly." Alice continued.
After being teased by the three at the same time, Eugeo hastily retorted: "I, I'm not timid, let alone scared... I just think it's the first time for us to come to the area behind the twin pools, so we should be a little more careful Better."
Hearing Eugeo's words, Kirito's black eyes shone mischievously.
"Well, that's true. By the way, do you know? When this village was first established, there would occasionally be evil spirits from the kingdom of darkness... Creatures like goblins and half-orcs crossed the village. The mountains come to the village to steal goats and children."
After finishing speaking, he purposely looked aside, but Alice snorted coldly and replied: "Why, are you still trying to scare me? Of course I know that. In the end, an integrity knight came from the Central Capital to rescue Goble beat the boss, right?"
"——Since then, every sunny day, you can see dragon knights wearing silver armor flying in the distant sky of the Mountain Range at the End." Kirito said the ending of the fairy tale that every child in the village knows, and then raised his head towards the north again Come.
And Zero and Eugeo and Alice also looked up at the snow-white mountain range and the blue sky above that had approached to cover most of the field of vision before they knew it.
In an instant, there seemed to be a small spot of light flickering in the clouds, but after staring intently, nothing was found.
So several people looked at each other's faces, hiding their embarrassment with smiles.
"—Is it really just a fairy tale... The ice dragon living in the cave must have been a story made up by Bercouli."
"Hey, hey, if you say such things in the village, you will definitely be beaten by the village chief. After all, the swordsman Bercouli is the hero of Rulid Village." Eugeo's words made Alice laugh like silver bells again. , and then quickened his pace.
"Go and see. Hurry up, if you take your time, you won't be able to reach the cave before noon!"
——Although Alice said so, Eugeo originally thought that it was impossible to reach the mountain range at the end by walking for half a day.
As the name suggests, the Mountain Range at the End is located at the end of the world, which is the edge of the human kingdom composed of the four empires of east, west, north, south, and south.
Even if Rulid Village is located at the northernmost point of the northern border, it is still impossible for them to walk to this mountain so easily with the foot strength of a few children.
Therefore, when the sun had not yet reached directly above his head, but Eugeo realized that he had witnessed the rather narrow Lulu River flowing into the cave at the bottom of the cliff in front of him, he was immediately speechless in surprise.
The large forests that were originally distributed on the left and right sides suddenly disappeared completely, and only gray uneven rock walls bulge straight up in front of them.
If you look up, although you can see the pure white ridge that cuts across the blue sky and is still hidden in the distant clouds, you can still be sure that this rock slope is the edge of the mountain range.
Chapter 350 The Fourth Fantasy Chapter - Going Deep into the Cave
"Is it already there...? This is the Mountain Range at the End...? Isn't it too soon...?"
Tongren also seemed to be unable to believe the facts in front of him, so he could only open his mouth wide and spit out such a sentence: "Then... where is the northern mountain? Did we pass by without knowing it?"
It's really strange to say.How could it be possible to pass a mountain that is an absolute limit to the children of the village—or perhaps to adults as well?
Looking back on the journey just now, after passing through Twin Pools for another 10 minutes, there was indeed a section of the road that was slightly bumpy. Could it be the so-called northern mountain peak?
