He wants to see what the information guild “Wings of Pen” can do.

「Since we’re here, let’s get some water.」

「Yes」

They decided to pour their water bottles from the pond.

The unknown emblem aside, that place is full of air mana so it’s a little waste to get water from there for drinking. He wants to keep it as a sample.

「….all right.」

He filled his water bottle full and stood up.

The wind blows.

It already feels like evening. It’s a little cold.

They have to go home before the sun sets.

「Then, let’s go home.」

「Yes」

「Yeah, Riito-sama」

「—warning」

Warning.

……warning?

「Navi? What do you mean by warning?」

「Hostile reaction. Master, it’s the fierce tiger-type monster from the other day—my detection accuracy has been reduced due to the mana around, sorry…..surprise attack」

Navi wasn’t even able to finish what she was trying to say.

Then, a low growl “Grrrrrrr” shook the ground.

It’s the fierce tiger-type monster that attacked Togen Village and was repelled by the flowerkins by using silver vine wine.

「You two, stand back—」

Riito concentrates on his magic power.

If he germinates the handy grass seed, it will not make it in time. Thus, he decided to borrow the power of the surrounding plants.

The plant that had absorbed Riito’s magic power grew in an instant as if it exploded.

The spiky and hard grass seemed to scratch the tiger’s eyes which startled it.

Seeing that opening, Riito’s group retreated.

「Do you have silver vine wine, Frau!」

「S-sorry. I don’t have any desu」

「No problem. I’m sorry about that tiger but I’ll be a little rough.」

「D-don’t desu」

「Eh?」

「Nushi is the mountain nushi that lived with Frau and the others. If you hurt or beat it, it will…..」

TN: Nushi means lord.

「But」

Riito is troubled.

Indeed, thanks to the symbiotic relationship of that tiger-type monster, Frau and the flowerkins were able to live in the east mountains.

However, their lives are in danger now.

No matter how you look at it, the fierce tiger-type monster called “Nushi” is excited and furious.

If they don’t fight, they will be eaten.

That is the current situation.

And to make matters worse, they don’t have silver vine wine.

「Frau, stop….it’s this place after all.」
