Howdy folks! The OG Animal Crossing player is back and this time he ’bout to get a big one! And although it’s sad that Ruri doesn’t exist here, I kind of understand why. I don’t know if she will appear here as a different character or something (foreshadow?) but Noah’s actions kinda make more sense when he’s alone. Just my opinion though. Anyways, ciao!\n

<hr class="wp-block-separator">\n<h1 class="has-text-align-center">The Hidden Elf Village</h1>\n“I am called Alyssa.”\n
The girl— Alyssa, introduced herself.\n
It looks like the elves don’t have surnames. Although I say that, even humans didn’t have surnames unless they were of nobility or of similar stance. By the way, there have also been cases where if a commoner performs a meritorious deed and they are appointed to a noble class, then they personally receive a surname through the emperor.\n
At any rate, let’s hear her out on her situation. Even if she suddenly prostrates herself and begs me to save her, I wouldn’t understand anything.\n
“Erm…… Noah-dono… would that be a suitable way to address you?”\n
“Ah, yeah. That’s fine.”\n
“Well then, Noah-dono…… Although I’m sure you’ve already guessed by now, this is a hidden elf village. However, right now, apart from me, there isn’t anyone other than the elderly and children.”\n
“Did something happen?”\n</ins>\n\n“About a year ago, an incredibly powerful monster claimed this region as its territory. Until that point, even though there were monsters that came attacking in this forest, there weren’t many casualties. And then after that point, the scales were amplified.”\n
“I see…… So you mean a dragon appeared, huh.”\n
“…… It is as you said.”\n
Alyssa nodded with a hateful expression.\n
I’ve heard of situations like this before.\n</ins>\n\nMonsters basically act in groups. However, that is only the case amongst their own species.\n
However, if a really high level monster suddenly shows up and tips the balance, then all the lower level monsters in the claimed territory would start acting as a single large horde under that one monster. And as for the other races in its territory that didn’t submit, it would thoroughly wipe them out the face of the world. And one such monster who’d exhibit such customs were the dragons that soared freely through the unbound skies.\n
All I can say is… their luck was bad.\n
Dragons were fickle creatures that tended to migrate and change their territories on a whim. In the same way, requests would be put up for them in the adventurers’ guilds, and in the same way, people would also give up on their villages and run away. Or at least that’s what I’ve heard.\n
However… jackpot.\n
Since there was a dragon in the area, let’s convert it over too, shall we?\n
“We’ve fought our hardest, but…… all the warriors have died. Presently, I’m the only one remaining alive. Even the warrior who has fought alongside me had perished just yesterday.”\n
“……”\n
“But I can’t just give up on the village. If we leave this forest, being caught by bandits or kidnappers and then being sold as slaves would be only future greeting us. I am aware of the degree to which…… the price of an elven slave can be.”\n
“…… I’d bet.”\n</ins>\n\nElves can be sold for really high prices. There was no mistake in that information.\n
The empire’s laws forbade human trafficking. However, that protection did not extend towards demi-humans— Elves, Dwarfs, and also the likes… continue reading.\nLike this:Like Loading...\n</ins>\n
