Chapter 319 – Translation

It looked like something troublesome was about to happen.

After having a delicious breakfast, we headed outside.

Then, I was surprised by the scene that unfolded there.

“Whoa…”

The reports that wounded fire dragons had rushed in… it was just as they said.

“Wow…”

“This is very unusual…”

The dragons we encountered in the mountains attacked us with claws and fangs bared, no questions asked.

There were five dragons in front of us, but they had painful wounds etched all over their bodies.

For the moment, they seemed to be calmly receiving treatment from the elves’ healing magic and medicine.

“I had no idea… Do dragons and elves get along?”

The wounded dragons rushed here and were calmly being treated.

In addition……

“…… What? By such formidable foes? Just the other day, our territory was encroached upon by humans, and I deemed it necessary to retaliate lest we be seen as weak… Hah~…”

“Gru… Gal, Gaa.”

“For that, you sought a counterattack? What of the rest of the group… fled … or felled … truly now~”

The chieftain seemed to be talking to the dragon, which was whimpering somewhat weakly.

Are they having a conversation?

Come to think of it, the elves who came to call the chieftain also asked him to talk to them…

“Hey, ma’am. What’s happening?”

For now, I asked his wife so as not to interrupt him …

“Uh-huh, that one possesses the ability to converse with beasts and monsters.”

“…… Huh?”

“The reason is unclear, but… with this gift, the creatures dwelling in these woods, whether beasts, monsters, or dragons, are afforded some communion…”

He can talk to animals? The chieftain? Aren’t you casually saying something amazing?

Then, Tre’ainar, who was beside me …

『I see… he is a tamer…』

「Tamer?」

『Mm-hmm, those who can communicate with animals and monsters and make them obey… in other words, they are in a perpetual state of mutual understanding, akin to commanding murmurs, it seems…』

「Oh, really…」

It’s the ancient forbidden translation spell that Tre’ainar had mentioned a few months ago.

「Huh? But what do you mean by perpetual? Isn’t it magic?」

『Mm-hmm. It does not appear to be. In other words, tis not magic, but a natural constitution. That ancient forbidden spell was originally developed based on the constitution of such people.』

「Oh, is that so? I mean, are there people who are born with such abilities?」

『Tis certainly rare, but not non-existent. Even before this era, there were a fair number of tamers who could subdue monsters. You see, the picture book that was in the back of your closet… the legendary swordsman, Peach Boy, who was also the natural enemy of the Ogres and was born from a peach… he was a tamer with such constitution as well.』

「Heh…」

Come to think of it, before I ran away from home, I was told the truth about those picture books.

Still, I had no idea that the chieftain had that kind of ability.

Could that be why he didn’t eat meat for breakfast…

“Geeeeeeeeehh The ones who attacked you…… Ogres of the Demon King Army! A hundred in number!?”

“”””Eeh!!???””””

“Ha~…… scouring the mountains for Elves… Ah~, those entangled with the Bockmati, I presume… this is vexing…”

At that moment, the surprised voice of the chieftain, who was listening to the injured dragon, echoed.

The Demon King Army? Ogre? Bockmati?

So that’s how it came to be…

“Th, the Demon King Army!? The Demon King Army, you say?

“A, and… what’s more, the Ogres!?”

“What foul happenstance is this? Such beings lurking in our vicinity!?”

“Is it true, Chieftain?”

The Ogres of the Demon King Army. The elves in the village were shaken by the shocking fact, and their faces turned pale.

I’m also sensing them nearby. Just the other day, it was the Amazonesses…

“Wh, what shall we do? Should they find this place ……?”

“Fool, do not falter. Even during this time, we subdued the Dark Elf of the Demon King Army…”

“But, the Ogres… the mightiest force of the Demon King Army, and furthermore, savage and cruel…”

“To think such beings… a hundred of them!?” free webnov el.com

“No, on the contrary, there are a mere hundred… instead of hiding, why not exploit the terrain and assail them from our vantage?”

“But should we lose, it’s naught but death awaiting us! The women, especially… can scarce imagine the torment they’d endure…”

The upset elves were quick to voice their opinions.

Young people said they should take up arms and fight, while women, children and old people who couldn’t fight were anxiously frightened.

“That’s… Until now, we did face marauding abductors in the woods, but… Still, we managed to overcome them. But this time, Ogres… this is an unforeseen predicament…”

The same was true of that strong-willed wife.

That’s how different the ogre race is from other races… I guess that’s what it means.

“Ogres… I haven’t fought one yet.”

“Me neither.”

Even Espie and Slayer don’t seem to have any combat experience against ogres yet, so they didn’t quite get the point right away.

On the other hand, I…

『Child. Ask the chieftain about the characteristics of the one who leads the ogres hunting in the mountains.』

「Hmm? Oh, yes, okay.」

Then Tre’ainar spoke to me. I asked the chieftain the question directly.

“Hey, Chieftain.”

“Hmm?”

“Can you ask him about the one who is leading the ogres currently hunting in the mountains?”

“O, of course. So, regarding those Ogres… yes, the one that seemed most imposing… huh. Uh-huh……. a blue demon? One horn?”

It’s like a game of messages from Tre’ainar to me, from me to the chieftain, and from the chieftain to the dragon…….

『Blue… one horned…… 100 strong …… I see. An Independent Detachment … tis the Aonii Corps.』

Apparently, Tre’ainar understood.

「Tre’ainar, do you know?」

『Yes, I do. In the Hakuki Army, which boasts tens of thousands of troops, there are a hundred demons that he trusts… the Demon Heaven Wrath(Kitenretsu) Great Hundred(Daihyakka) … Among them is Aonii, who is recognized as one of the top ten in terms of ability… therefore, Hakuki granted him the authority to act on his own initiative to some extent in the war…』

「Ha~…… I didn’t know …… such a title existed.」

『…… And, I see…a lot of things… are starting to make sense…』

「?」

To be honest, I don’t really know about the strong people of this era unless they are in the Six Supremacy and Seven Heroes class, but just because Tre’ainar knew him, I can tell that he is a strong person in his own right.

Just……

『In any case…』

「Hmm?」

『Just recently, you fought with the Six Supremacy, Jamdi’el, Paripi, Norja… during this stage, one or two subordinates of the Six Supremacy… currently, they will not be worthy opponents for you.』

Not opponents to me. I couldn’t help but laugh at Tre’ainar’s evaluation.

「Hohou… you’re giving me a lot of praise, aren’t you?」

『Tis no compliment, I merely stated the facts. However, tis not just strength that matters… what will you do? Child?』

「Huh? What will I do… right…… that’s…」

Apparently, Tre’ainar saw through me.

I don’t feel like acting. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝑐𝘰𝓂

I don’t know what to do this time… no, I don’t even think about it.

Simply……

“Ogres… huh…”

When I heard the name of that race, I couldn’t help but think of that person who was kinder than anyone else.
