Isekai de Kojiin wo Hiraitakedo, Nazeka Darehitori Sudatou to Shinai Ken (WN)-Chapter 55: Strategy meeting!

Translator: Mr.Nobody

“… With that the Whikram forces have made the old fortress their foothold in the fairy village.”

“Aah, thank you. I understood well, Meril.”

“Don’t mention it! This Meril is happy with just being of help to the Hero!”

“Hoi~ Then Meril’s turn ended~ Masatsugu-sama. Next in turn is this Korlu’s story?”

“Aah, that’s right.”

“Wait a bit Korlu, can’t you see Masatsugu-sama is troubled. Masatsugu-sama is staking his life fighting to save us, you know? That’s why this Rinrin will talk to you this time!”

“Aah, it’s no problem?”

“Hey~hey~Leave that aside~ Masatsugu-sama you have a nice smell~ It’s a mysterious smell~ What’s that smell?”

“Ah, that’s probably the soap’s smell.”

“Next is Mimi turn~ Let’s play hide-and-seek~”

“You lot, will you cut it out!?”

Palmela’s voice echoed.

The fairies screamed.

“Kyaa~”

And began clinging to me.

From earlier several dozens of fairies were clinging to my arms and legs and even my head and face, probably you couldn’t see my figure from the side.

They were welcoming me as a guest of honor who saved their village. For some reason they were interested in it and were clinging and touching my head and sniffing the smell. Rather than warm welcome it feels more like playing around.

“Muu”

Palmela raised an unsatisfied voice.

She was very unhappy from earlier.

“Palmela, I don’t really mind them. Besides, this is how I am welcomed. Then, I’m grateful.”

I said that.

“Eh? Yeah, it’s not about that… If Naomi-sama doesn’t mind it, I do!”

She was staring at me heavily.

Un? What’s going on? I tilted my head.

“It’s fine for princess to do it aswell?”

“That’s right, that’s right. Feigning ignorance is useless”

“Clinging is really good, you know? There’s a nice smell too~ Somehow it’s pleasantly making me go to sleep~ Honya~”

“Wha!?”

Palmela’s face was bright red and her mouth kept opening and closing itself.

“Muu, get away from him already! I cannot have a serious conversation otherwise!”

“Kyaa”

Palmela’s scolding made them separate themselves from me and left the room.

“Good grief…”

While saying that she was glancing at me with regretful eyes.

“?”

When our eyes met she averted hers.

Umu, I don’t understand it.

“Well it’s fine. It’s just like Palmela is saying. We have to make a strategy to rescue the Fairy Village.”

I said that and the orphanage girls were approaching with a stance of joining the preparations.

“Whikram’s forces have set up a stronghold in the old fortress in the inner part of the Fairy village. Strictly speaking frontal advance is the best. But they surely must be prepared for it. The longer the fight goes on the higher the damage of the fairies will be.”

“If that is so, then perhaps a detour route~”

Shii said it while tilting her head.

“That’s right. Can I leave it to you, Palmela?”

She nodded on my words and spread the map.

“It’s as Naomi-sama talked about right now, the shortest route to the old fortress is straight north through the Caracalla plains. But, we’ll have to assume that fighting a lot of enemies will be necessary. While in the east is the Zoizowa forest we can use to go to the old fortress.”

“I see, we can fight the enemy’s main force without exhausting our strength.”

“It will be a surprise attack. Nice idea!”

Elin and Lucia gave their approval.

“No, it won’t be that simple.”

I shook my head.

Palmela continued explaining.

“Yeah. The detour is effective but there’s a problem about it. There are heinous monster’s living the Zoizowa forest. Many fairies that have accidently strayed in it have become prey to them. One theory is that the surviving monsters that are there were released by the Evil God.”

“The evil god’s monsters are dangerous~”

“Fuumu, we’re stuck between two a rock and a hard place. No matter which one we choose, it will be difficult.”

“Did Masatsugu-dono already decide which one we’ll go?”

I nodded to Clarissa’s words.

“We’ll be going through the Zoizowa forest. It’s troublesome but I am the hero this world chose after all. If there are monsters from the evil god, we’ll get rid of them on the way. We’ll arrive early and we’ll be hidden. In one go we’ll achieve three things.”

“I see!”

“I understand!”

To my answer the girls replied strangely energetic.

Like this we decided on a basic plan of action.

We decided to stay overnight in the Fairy village.

We originally came for a picnic and make potions but we met Palmela in the afternoon.

It was already evening when the Evil god’s were dropped into the abyss.

Now it’s already night. Advancing through the forest is unreasonable.

For that reason we decided to stay in the rooms that Palmela prepared for us.

By the way, I asked Palmela why there was a human inn.

“That’s a secret.”

But she evaded like that. Fumu? free𝚠𝚎𝚋𝒏𝚘ѵ𝐞l.𝑐oｍ

Well, at any rate after eating and chatting for a while we all went in our respective rooms to sleep.

Probably due to being tired from potion making I started dozing off.

At that time.

Kii.

The door slowly opened with a sound that could be slightly heard.

They were meticulously moving so that they won’t be noticed by me.

There wasn’t a single sound like they were walking on tiptoes.

I reached out my hand to the person when they came close to me who had his back exposed.

I moved quick and grasped the wrist of the intruder

“Oi, do you intend to prank me? If you’re going to do it you should it a bit better, Palmela.”

I said that while sighing.

But in front of me there wasn’t a fairy.

There was a girl with a beautiful long blonde hair with a transparent presence and almost my height.
