Otoko Nara Ikkokuichijou no Aruji o Mezasa Nakya, ne? Chapter 115

Or maybe I'll finish one more because they're short and fast. I might, like 0.001% chance be able to do 116 in the next hour or so, but if not then after all later tonight. There's a mix of short and long chapters so.. Also all sorts of fun revelations this time.
Year 7444, Month 1, Day 1
As I approached close to the side of the pond the fairies were still laughing, frolicking, and flying around as if I wasn't here. I was certainly surprised after seeing the fairies for the first time but after calming down and Identifying a couple of them there's several things I've understood.
1. All of the fairies can use all elemental magics.
2. Other than magic the fairies have the special skills 【Naming】 and 【Fairy Sight】.
3. They have individual names. I guess they did the ceremony using their special skill 【Naming】.
4. They're freely flying around using the wings like a mayfly or dragonfly from their back.
5. Their height (size?) is only about 30 cm and they don't wear any clothes.
6. There's individuals that have a long lifespan as well (Over 100 years old is common and there's even a couple of them over 300 years old).
7. They have a lot of MP because of the level of their magic special skills and age.
8. I don't know if it's because of their late age but their HP isn't balanced with the other ability values (it's low).
And above all else what's important is that different from monsters, on the bottom the Identify window there's properly an item for 【Experience】, related to their body level. In other words, you could say that the Fairy race is different from what is normally considered monsters. Also, going off of the above points, you could say that the 7th and 8th are racial characteristics so I can't say it's all that unusual.
I walk to the side of the pond and after taking a good look, the pond has a diameter of about 200 m and what I thought was a small island in the center was actually a peninsula. If I walk a bit I should be able to cross over. I can see a lot of fairies gathered around the end of that peninsula. Let's try going over to there.
I somehow don't find it amusing that they're not showing any interest in me at all. It's not like I particularly want them to make a fuss but if I try matching it up to myself while thinking about it and if something like a 7-8 m high giant were to suddenly appear I think everyone would be equally surprised as they meet them.
I'm being ignored but it's not like I want to create some strife from my side either. What is it? This feeling. Being ignored itself, is better than it becoming an uproar but if I just keep getting ignored like this and somehow you know~ If possible I want to have some friendly communication, is my true feelings but it's inconvenient to keep being ignored as well.
I think it would be possible for me to catch several of them and make them into an exhibition or sell them at a high price to the royal family but even if it's me if I were to be attacked by this many with magic all at once it would be bad. They only have at most a bit over 100 MP but since they've lived for over 100 years, there was even one with their magic special skill at MAX. I have no intention at all of taking hostile action towards them.
If they can talk, I just want to try asking about the dungeon and about the mechanism for that door. If possible I'd like to try asking about what happened with the founder George Rombert the First in the past as well. After that is...that's right. It would be the best if they would teach me some spells that I don't know.
During the time I'm heading towards the end of the peninsula, I make sure to pay attention to my feet so in the worst case I don't end up stepping on a fairy laying on the ground. I don't know if the fairies are just thinking of me as something like a large moving rock but they're sitting down on my shoulder or resting for a bit on my head, they're all just having their own way. In order to not surprise them I tried calling out "h.e.l.lo" in a small voice but it seems they don't understand.
It seems the fairies are talking in their own language made of extremely high sounds something like "pirurururu" and no matter what I say to them they aren't responding.
I arrived at the end of the peninsula. The trunk of the large tree has countless cave-like holes in it and it's almost like a mansion for the fairies. There's a lot of fairies going in and out of it. I slowly walked to below the tree and sat down on an appropriate rock before starting to talk to the fairies.
I wonder if there's no one who understands my words?
"Hey~ h.e.l.lo."
"Do you live here?"
"What do you eat?"
"Do you have some sort of representative?"
"DO monsters not come here?"
"Do you know Baldukk?"
No matter how much I talk to them the fairies won't directly give me an answer. This is no good. I sigh as a small fairy is pulling on and opening the right nostril of my nose. I'll try identifying the special skill 【Fairy Sight】 that I've seen for the first time.
【Special Skill: Fairy Sight; A special skill that the Fairy race possess. It includes Infrared Vision, Night Vision, Far Sight, Clairvoyance, X-Ray Vision, and including strengthened vision, can see mana. This ability increases based on level.】
Don't joke with me. What's with that convenient skill?
It might still be a bit too soon for lunch but it seems like this place is safe so I'll have some lunch with the feel of a picnic and head back.
Thinking that I started digging through my bag and pulled out the portable stove magic tool and made preparations. It was when I had pulled out the dried meineiji, breath, and bottle of mayonnaise. I noticed that all of the fairies that had been flying around me or the tree suddenly landed on the ground and were staring at me. Oh~ I wonder if things like fish or bread are unusual to them? I wonder if I can win them over by feeding them?
I lit up the stove and placed the dried fish on the grill before starting to grill it. During that time I started cutting the bread but the fairies are just staring at my every movement. Right away the appetizing smell of the dried fish started drifting around the area.
It was just that moment.
A single fairy that appeared late landed on the ground in front of me and started talking to me from the other side of the stove.
"That's a good smell."
It's a slightly high voice but I can hear the proper {Common Language}. I was surprised but replied to it.
"You can talk?"
The fairy ignored my question and just continued talking.
"Fish from the ocean huh..How many hundreds of years has it been. I couldn't help but be fished out...Though I didn't want to get involved. Hey, that, can you share a bit of it with me?"
It's true there's no need to respond to my question since in the first place he's already responding to me.
"Ah..Yeah, it's fine. You can eat it all."
After hearing my response the fairy smiled cheerfully and thanked me. I still have one more after all.
"Oh~ is it fine? Thanks."
"Eh? Ah, you're welcome."
When I replied and the fairy said to the fairies around it "pirururu" in the fairy language. After hearing that the fairies raised a cheer and started jumping around and doing somersaults in great delight. I'm still not all that hungry so I guess I could give them one more as well. No, it might be useful to negotiate for something. Ah, since they can see my bag with 【Fairy Sight】 then I guess it's already been revealed that I have one more?
Around the time the cheers of the fairies had quietened down, the fairy that was in front of me looking at the dried fish being grilled started talking to me again.
"It's tiring to talk in a loud voice. Can I sit on your shoulder?"
"Sure."
I replied like that and after shake the mayfly-like wings the fairy got on my right shoulder.
It seems the other fairy that was originally on my right shoulder moved on top of my helmet.
"It's been quite a while since a person came here..Did you hear from George? No..I guess there's no way he's still alive. In that case, did you just have good luck? Hey~ you, what's your name? Is it fine if I look at your status?"
The fairy grabs my earlobe and says in a quick pace. It tickles.
"Yeah, I don't mind."
"Hmn, is it fine to call you Al?"
What!? It should be necessary to say Status Open. I was surprised and turned my face towards the fairy that's grabbing my earlobe on my shoulder.
"Hey, isn't that dangerous! Don't move so suddenly."
"Uh..Ah..Sorry about that. But, why..."
I guess since I was making such a surprised expression, the fairy replied to me.
"Ah, fairies can understand. It's the so-called 【Fairy Sight】. We can see mana after all. We can even see Status. The mana line connected to you as well"
"Huh?"
"Eh? After all there's a {Report} on you? It's unusual and since I thought there was something to it I didn't really want to get involved though. But, since I smelled the scent of a fish from the ocean..There's no way I could resist it."

What? What is it saying? Did it just say {Report}?
"Hey~ is it okay if I look at your status as well?"
"Hn? Yeah, I don't particularly mind. Feel free."
After the fairy said that he sat in a comfortable spot on my right shoulder and peeked into the fish being grilled on the stove. I touched his hand without restraint and said "Status Open" while Identifying him.

Karl huh? And..he was tremendously older than me and all of his magic skills are MAX!
【Fairy race: {Fairy} Species】
Well I thought it would be something like that.
【Baldukk: The sixth seed.】
I don't understand the meaning. Normally, the family name they're a member of is supposed to go here though...
"Hey~ Al. Isn't about to start burning? Either move it or flip it over."
"Eh..Ah.."
I moved the fish a bit on the stove and continued grilling it.
"Umm...Is it fine to call you Karl?"
"Yeah, it's fine if you call me Karl. It's a good name right?"
After saying that Karl turned around on my lap and smiled at me.
"Karl, you are, no, are you a fairy?"
"Hn? That's right? You saw my status right? And you don't need to talk so politely like that."
Karl said that while making a strange face and continued talking to me intimately as I,
"Ah, no. Yeah...And, why are you fairies inside of Baldukk? Do monsters or adventurers like myself not come in here? Won't you get captured?"
I tried asking that.
"If you saw my status then you should already know right...We're all priests. There's no one out there that would lay a finger on us."
Ah, come to think of it they had the 【Naming】 special skill. It's true there's no one out there who would lay their hands on a priest.
"Ah, I guess that's true...And, huh? Just now, I.."
I was thinking about something really evil like capturing a couple of them and selling them or turning them into an exhibition right...
"I'm sure it's just that right? You want to say you thought about capturing several of us right? That can't be helped, if it's just thinking about it and you don't actually try to act on it then it's fine. I'm sure there's priests in the country of humans as well right...Are they not allowed to fight between married couples? Even their children might feel hatred towards their parents to the point of killing them when they're small. There's no way divine punishment would fall over every instance like that."
That's true.
"Well I guess it's fine. It's true that the fairy race is rare to humans. It can't be helped...Well it should be a decent way to spend time until it's finished grilling. First off, if you're asking why we're here then it's because we were born here. And, in regards to whether or not adventurers or monsters can come here, it's not like they can't come. In reality, Al came here after all. Although, it's a matter of whether or not we see a human once in every couple hundred years or so though."
"I see...By the way, you just mentioned something or other about a {Report} but, what's that about?"
"Huh? Could it be you haven't noticed it...Why? Ah, this place is fine but..Hmn, {Report} is the name of a spell. Aren't you sending the information you see and hear to someone right? Since it's eats up a tremendous amount of mana, it's an ultra high-grade spell that even I can't use. Judging off the color of it they're probably quite far away. Hey~ rather than that isn't it about time to flip it over.."
"Wait just a minute! I have some kind of spell cast on me!"
"Uwa...that was a loud voice, really. That's what I've been saying. Rather than that flip it over."
Ah! Really! I flipped over the meineiji to the other side.
"What is that {Report}? What kind of spell is it!?"
"Lower your voice a bit more. {Report} is a mix of {Divination} and {Charm}. It's a spell that could be considered legendary. You've never heard of it?"
I'm asking because I don't know. IfIknewthenIwouldn't be asking. When I shook my head the fairy that was sitting on my helmet yelled "Kya~!!" and fell on my shoulder.
"Ahahahaha, Bell, that was funny. Hey Bell fell off in a strange way! That was funny right!"
It's not funny at all.
"Hey~ Karl. What kind of spell is that {Report}?"
"Ahahaha, something like that doesn't matter at all. Eh? Why are you making such a scary face?"
It's only obvious I'd make a scary face.
"Karl. Sorry but could please tell me in detail about the spell called {Report}? I'm begging you. If it's something I can do then I'll help out in thanks."
"Hn~n. Then give me the other fish as well."
"If that's fine then I'll give it to you."
After hearing my response Karl did a somersault and,
"Really! Feel free to ask anything."
said that with great delight.
"Ah, it's true. That's why please tell me about {Report}."
"Even if you say to teach you about {Report}~ I don't know much about it at all and it's all hearsay though. First off, I just said it before but {Report} is a spell categorized under the {Divination} and {Charm} systems. That's why maybe it's not normally known?"
"What is that {Divination} and {Charm} stuff? Is it the name of a spell?"
I've never heard of something like that.
"Hmn, starting from there huh~ Well I guess it's fine. Magic is largely split into 13 systems. {Abjuration}, {Alteration}, {Charm}, {Conjuration}, {Divination}, {Enchantment}, {Evocation}, {Invocation}, {Illusion}, {Necromancy}, {Phantasm}, {Possession}, and {Summoning}. Is up to here fine?"
Like I know. It's my first time hearing! Not to mention there's a lot of them. Like I could remember something like that.
"Judging off that face it seems like it's the first time you've heard about them~ I only know of it form hearsay from my mother and father as well though. Well these 13 systems but when you think about it there's not much harm in reducing them even further. {Charm} and {Enchantment}. {Conjuration} and {Summoning}, {Illusion} and {Phantasm} in most cases those are all two systems in one so there's not much problem to remember them as the same thing. Also, {Possession} is too unique so if we were to use some extreme logic you don't even need to remember it. Well in that case you can say it's something like 9 categories as well. It's fine to think that all spells are categorized into one of these 9 systems."
"I see."
"And, among those the {Charm} and {Divination} system are almost all made up of legendary spells. {Report} is one of those types. I think what is commonly known would probably be {Mana Detection}, {Mana Perception}, and {Sleep Cloud} or so. Incidentally {Mana Detection} and {Mana Perception} are {Divination} and the spell {Sleep Cloud} is a combination of the three systems {Evocation}, {Enchantment}, and {Charm}. Ah, I guess in that case the spell Fortune-Telling {Divination} isn't known either? It's a spell to known incantations. It might not be commonly known though."
"Ah, ah."
I let out a weird voice. I feel like I've somehow touched some enormous knowledge.
"Ah, isn't it already about done?"
"Eh?"
"The fish, fis.h.!.+"
Ah, the dried fish. It's true it's about a good time.
"Don't forget about it."
Karl said that in a huff but his expression seemed like he was already about to start drooling. I lower the dried fish from the stove hung it upside down by the tail.
"A plate or something..there's no way you'd have one right."
"Just hold it for a bit like that, we'll all eat it."
Karl said that and then "Piru..ruruppi" called out to all of the surrounding fairies with that voice. After hearing that all of the fairies let out a cheer while swarming to the dried fish I was holding. And when their small pencil like hands they dug out from the body of the dried fish one after another. The dried fish had become a clean bone in about a minute.
