Chapter 53
No, calm down.
In this situation, the important part isn’t the small old man.
It’s the ‘same’.
The face and body of the Dwarf look exactly the same small old man. We
suspicious ones.
“……”
Wait wait, it’s different now that I look closely.
I’ll inspect the old man once again.
That Dwarf from earlier was wearing a red hat, this one is wearing a green
hat.
I silently gestured at Kawazu-san with my eyes, but he doesn’t seem to
understand so he just shook his head.
So I commenced an emergency meeting with a hushed voice.
“…… is he the same one from earlier? Twin brother? He didn’t say anything
of the sort, right?” (T)
“I wonder? This is also the first time I’ve seen Dwarves” (K)
“I don’t think he’s pulling some sort of prank…… ” (N)
“…… what do you guys think you’re doing, coming into my house and
whispering by yourselves?”
I immediately straightened up after being scolded by an irritated voice. For
now, let’s proceed with the conversation as if it’s a different person.
“Sorry, excuse us. We actually came to deliver this to you”
“A delivery?”
Now that I think about it, there’re no other clues besides the guidance
the reciepient.
A gave the letter that the boss entrusted me, the Dwarf (green) saw it, and
exclaimed in a loud voice.
“Oh, oh! I remember him! …… this is the kid I looked after when I was
travelling outside, how many years has it been! So he’s still alive”
The Dwarf (green) said that in delight, he seems to be incredibly happy.
The bond of a student and master is indeed a profound thing.
It was the right decision for the boss to write that letter.
“Um yes. He’s currently working as a blacksmith in a human village”
“Hohou! That little kid…… I wonder if he’s become better at hammering?”
“A, that’s…… ”
Speaking of, the only sword that I carry around was the boss’ work.
I could show it to him if he’s interested. I took out my beloved sword from
reason, the Dwarf (green) had a look of trepidation, and was uneased by
the sword.
“……you don’t have to be that wary of it”
I’m kinda hurt that he looked like he’s asked to touch some filth. The Dwarf
(green) had a troubled and helpless face.
“Isn’t this enchanted with something nasty? However…… I could feel a
something that he made?”
Now that he mentions it, I did a lot of things to the sword. I hastily
explained.
“Well I was the one that added those, he just gave the sword to me.
okay to touch it”
“…… you’re quite reckless, aren’t you”
The Dwarf (green) was still fearful, but he was a little relieved after
sword from my hand and brandished it with some familiarity.
Once the glossy s.h.i.+ne of the blade was exposed, his cheeks became less
tense.
“Ah, this one…… rough as usual, but he’s definitely devoted himself to it.
A, excuse me. I’m done”
Dwarf-san (green) placed the sword back into it’s sheath and returned it to
me.
This time, he sighed and looked at me.
“…… and so? What have you come here for? The letter said something
about wanting a weapon”
“Ah, yes of course. But first, I’d like to give this to you!”
Once again, I stuck my hand into the magic pouch, and took out a PC this
time.
Naito-san made a sound of surprise. Still, I have to establish a form of
communication first.
We may need to have a lot of things made from now on…… and it would
be incovenient if we need some callibration for weapons.
“Hm? A weird box, what’s that?”
Based on my experience, they usually have a strange face after seeing it.
Contrary to my expectations however, it’s well-received this time.
The Dwarf (green) didn’t seem to fully understand what I just took out, but
he showed some interest because it looked elaborate.
He he, so this is the curiousity of a craftsman…… then it will be decided in
one go!
“This is a machine that lets you have a good talk with someone from far
away~”
“Ooh. That might be convenient. So you want me to give you a weapon in
exchange for this?”
Dwarf-san (green) asked cautiously. Please, I want you to think of those
two issues separately.
“No no. This thing is only useful if a lot of people are using it.
It would be great if everyone would use it. Here, a manual”
“A manual…… this seems troublesome. But I’m sorry.
with you”
“Why!?”
Even though he was taking it so well, it resulted in an unexpected answer.
Dwarf-san (green) looked a little apologetic as he scratched his head and
his face looked sober.
“There’s a project in the village where everyone’s gonna help in making a
take a lot of time…… ”
“Giants exists!”
My ears heard the words of a very interesting plan, and I unconciously
leaned in.
So this is the interesting thing that the village is working on!
Of course this would be crazy.
Cause it’s a Giant, you know?
There’s no way I’d be calm.
People find gigantic things as a kind of Romance.
I guarantee that the Romance index would rise considerably just by
attaching it to the concept of making it gigantic.
Giant robot, giant insect, giant building……
And a Giant is gigantic, just look at the name.
At that time however, I didn’t notice Dwarf-san’s (green) eyes glint while
looking at me in that state.
“Oh? You don’t know about Giants?”
“…… huge?”
“Well they ARE Giants…… ”
“I wanna see!”
Seeing me heavily breathing, Dwarf-san (green) grinned and laughed. He
looked like he’s seeing something novel.
“You do? Such a strange guy. So why don’t you come along then? I’ll take
you there since you brought something interesting”
“Really!?”
“Yea, I don’t mind. He just arrived in the village as well”
“Seriously!?”
The conversation continued with a good rhythm.
OH! My heart was beating wildly and I can’t suppress my excitement
existence of the two behind me.
To put it in words, the both of them look like they’re about to face
something troublesome.
“A giant? That’s quite difficult to deal with……” (N)
“That’s right, you’re always interested in strange things” (K)
The pair’s reaction seem to be quite negative.
“What, but it’s a Giant, you see? They’re huge, you know? What do you
mean by difficult?”
I became a little uneasy and Naito -san firmly nodded at me.
“Yes. Firstly, they are dangerous. Giants are violent, and they’re famous for
being fond of wars”
“…… seriously?”
Getting told something like that feels like I just got handed some c.r.a.p.
It’s fine if I’m just dealing with power, but I don’t want to be threatened.
I’ve always shrank away from people who are too aggressive.
“I don’t think you have to worry about that”
The Dwarf (green) smiled bitterly when he saw Naito-san’s guarded state.
Now what could be the reason?
He was troubled by the reaction.
Since it’s come to this, we can’t pa.s.s judgement since we haven’t seen him
the giant.
The Giant was indeed in the middle of the village square.
He’s just…… definitely a little different compared to the image that I’ve
formed in my head.
No, he’s big in terms of size but there’s a difference in terms of character.
“I’m so sorry…… I’ve taken up quite a bit of your time……”
“It’s fine, I say! Don’t worry about it! We already said we’re going to make
your armor!”
As for me, there was absolutely no problem with that.
It’s wonderful thing when it’s safe.
However, there were more interesting things in the square that we were
taken to. Sure, it looks like they were scolding the weak-looking giant.
They were…… small old men, a lot of them.
“Amazing. We weren’t being pranked after all”
I’m sorry for being suspicious, but now we’re watching and admiring the
and bustling around.
Seeing that the faces were the same, even Kawazu-san’s eyes turned
round.
“Having the same face to this extent, it’s a bit disturbing” (K)
“Ah, Kawazu-san himself said it…… ” (T)
“……what is it? Won’t it be charming if I multiplied?”
“Stop it, I’ll turn green…… ”
“What kind of illness is that?”
By the way, do Dwarves have some sort of fixation when it comes to hats?
…… they probably do.
Each one has a slightly different-colored hat, each color is solely for one
person.
Maybe they use colors to distinguish between individuals. At least, that’s
the only way we can distinguish them.
“I’m sorryyy. I want to thank you, I’m really grateful”
While his head was being poked by Dwarves, the happy-looking Giant-san
doesn’t live up to his reputation at all.
“…… violent and loves to fight?”
“…… supposedly”
Beside me, Naito-san who was standing alert and guarded was also
underwhelmed by the weak-looking Giant.
T/N: I find it a bit sad that Kawazu-san lived for 500 years without getting
adventure now, not just building an empire.
Also, imagine Dwarves having various personalities but they’re always
undoubtedly give the impression of being “eccentric”
