Arifureta After IIIShia ArcLovely Base Search
Clear cloudless sky Hot weather Trees growing abundantly that it should be expressed as a dense forest The large light brown river that inding between it like a snake
At a certain place in a certain country, along the river, two foreigners, aby foot on a path without pave to this kind of place right fro to Tortus isn't it? Well, this side is lovelier though si it like in the sea of trees」
「It h」
The two people walking the previouslyroad that perhaps would ht steps were Shia and Hajiht blue white hair into a ponytail that was tied with a largish ribbon Her lively footsteps made her hair and the rabbit ears that could only be seen by Hajietically (The ribbon was an artifact, which nize the rabbit ears)
Shia earing a plain cutter shirt with its sleeves rolled up, a short pants with short length, and short boots, while there was a large bag on her back The rucksack had abunny on it seemed to make appeal that「This is Shia's property desu」
Hajime was also dressed with a white si a large bag on his back
「Hey, Shia Is it no good if I take out Schutaif?」
Haji down on the on his forehead using the wristband on his wrist The emotion of 「I don't want to walk anyether with the sweat
Haji a bike, however, Shia y to show her rejection
「No! We are rarely traveling just the two of us like this! Advancing so quickly like that is no good」
「Even if you say that……」
「Geez This act ofscenery of only dense forest and river, how can Hajiless walk and the unchanging scenery that I want to ride on Schuteif……」
「Haji done with public transportation or by your own feet!」
「Don't you say things like Aby――like Endo」
Even though Hajih 'haa', he raised both his hands in expression of surrender in roder to respond to Shia's wish
In the first place, as these two here at this kind of foreign land at the backwoods overfloith nature that was unrelated with civilization
「In the first place, if we are just going to search prospective land for Hauria clan's earth settle the Co Crystal Key Convenient tool is fundamentally forbidden in our travel this ti prospective land!」
「I get it, I get it After all it has been really long since it was just the two of us alone This ti fully with your demand」
In other words, it was like that
Hauria clan who remained behind in Tortus was in thedown the eendary decisive battle……through all that, Hauria clan was abusing their naest a the beastman
Admiration, sympathy, flattery There were various reasons, but naturally at present a lot of rabbit reat nu of other race and yet they went down on their knees wanting to become Hauria clan's subordinate
Their subordinates cadom, the dukedom, also the church, not to mention the empire territory too, furthermore there were even those from the south continent
Like that, they finally wanted to put a base on earth too and came to Hajime for a consultation
They said that eventually they wished to raise a secret clan that would serve Nagumo family even until its descendants
Hajiedly pushed the idea Not just the 「It's for the future generations! Please let our clan stay at your side! Forever and ever at your side! Bossss!」 A group ofon their head ailing while clinging on Hajime like that
As the result, Hajime compromised Because each time he went to Tortus, they appeared every ti at hi eyes, or possibly moist sad eyes……
Haji to move to this side, they can just live normally in the city Just live in Japan directly」
「Because there is Hauria's exclusive "gate" after all~ It doesn't matter where the base will be located, it won't be that much of a hindrance As expected, the beastman will cale land, no, that's going too far, but inside the forest in a developing country where people don't really go into will be especially good」
「……Before long, it feels like the rabbit ear clan will get featured in TV like "Eyewitness testimony in an undeveloped land! Is it a new UMA!?"」
「Ahaha, et apprehended by TV crew you know~」
Shia cackled while holding her stouts of TV crew couldn't be underesti audience rate, then they would go anywhere as far as their budget would allow
And then, as especially terrifying was the ca their caht at beside theion, or clihest mountain in the world
Even in a situation where a star would whine 「Nolike they were really at their lio 「Do your best!」 in front of their television, the cae perfectly to send it to the viewer's living roo, every tiram, he wondered if the profession of cas like perhaps if a guy with vocation "camerauy be the strongest?
「Well, they can do as the please if they won't reap the head of every fellow they encountered」
「How rude! What does Haji……such thing……won't happen, you know?」
「Stop it, don't speak in question As the daughter of the clan head declare it clearly there」
Shia insisted that "They aren't a savage clan desuu!', but midway it seemed she lost her confidence At the end of her sentence her voice was vanishing Hajiht become reality Perhaps an education would be needed before they moved to this side
By the way, at their travel this tiestion that he ith only Shia It seeo to a date of just the two of us soed the two of the that you accept the proposal of Kar for prospective land?'
What first wife power it was It ithout saying that for a while Shia hugged Yue tightly and didn't let go
Like that, it was a travel to search for a base at earth with environment that resembled the sea of trees for Hauria clan――that was the cover Shia's rabbit ears were suddenly twitching in reaction while they were leisurely enjoying the oversea travel of just the two of them
「Mu? Hajime-san, there is human presence It's far but……it looks like there is quite a co troublesome?」
「No, if I have to say it feels like cheers」
「H?」
Haji 「I don't know about that」
The footpath in front of theht ahead However, there wasn't any other path that seemed like a path, so Hajime and Shia nodded to each other and advanced forward just like that
Before long, even Haji sound and fro around the dense forest for five minutes
The two finally discovered the source of the cheers
「Woow! It's a village inside this dense forest What's ht so it's lucky desuu!」
「Festival? Is that a festival?」
An unforeseen encounter in thelike that, Haji over his head

「Coh-tensioned huh I get it so don't pullHaji wildly with unruly high tension, expressing the inside of Shia's heart really clearly
Haji such Shia He let his hand got pulled by Shia The eentle
On the other hand, the villagers also noticed Hajime and Shia
They had darkish skin and black hair with finely chiseled features Frolance their appearance was different fro, they weren't a tribe of an undeveloped land, so they earing fas like T-shirt, short pants, and so on But the appearance of Haji n traveler

The choker around Shia's neck was instilled with "Language Coe barrier didn't exist

「My my, it must be hard to come until this kind of place Now, please drink this」
「Uwaa, so co festival day」
They talked to Shia one after another The children of the village were also shuffling to gather toward the foreigner that was unusual to be here

「That's right Once a year we decide the strongest person in the village The family of the winner can receive favorable treater share froet s we bartered at the city」
「Most of all, the champion will be respected It's about honor That's why, the young e are trained since they were little, they were told that they absolutely have to become a champion once in their life」
「Hoe~」
Shia looked at above the ring with expression of ad ardless of the sudden appearance of the foreigners Although it was a festival, it was certain that it was also a serious battle that concerned their honor
