I don't want to be an elf!

"No, I prefer to stay in a safe place." Nephlian replied, "But it feels good to come out once in a while."

"Right? It's a pity to lock yourself up!" Yatogami Tohka said, "If you like, we can go to further places together in the future!"

"Never mind."

"Are you still worried about breaking the law?"

"Well, although we won't be punished, as managers, William and Nigolan will inevitably be affected."

"You don't have to worry about it!"

Hearing Nephren's worry, Yatogami Tohka looked mysterious.

After looking around and making sure no one was eavesdropping, she whispered, "The reason William has been hanging out in the library these days is to find a way to help you get free."

"Oh?"

Nephron turned her face sideways, her expression still indifferent, and she asked curiously or sadly, "How do you know?"

"Humph."

Yatogami Tohka put her hands on her hips, and said with great air, "Because I am William's assistant! If he finally decides to declare war on the government, I will be responsible for beating up all the people in the government!"

"..."

Silently looking at the girl in front of her, Nephlian felt tired again.

A small violation of the law is enough.

After all, apartheid laws really didn't work.

But what kind of trouble is the sudden overthrow of the government now?

No wonder William and Yatogami Tohka have more exchanges these days. It turns out that this guy is instigating Yatogami Tohka to be a traitor.

Later, I have to remind Cordoli to let her take care of her man.

Chapter 23 The Promise of the Girls

The task of the girls in this world is to become the princess of the golden goblin and lead them to defeat their fate.

And the fate of the golden goblins is to sacrifice.

They are an artificially created race. They have been taught since childhood to sacrifice everything for the floating continental archipelago, and are used as weapons by the military.

To put it nicely, it is a sharp blade that protects the people. To put it bluntly, it is a consumable that can be used at will.

But they are not dead.

They have their own consciousness, feelings, and cognition, and they are by no means cold weapons.

But what the girl wants to do is not simply to keep the golden fairies away from the battlefield and stop them from guarding the floating mainland islands.

The only one who can resist the sixth beast is the Golden Fairy.

If they give up their mission, then the civilization that managed to survive will also be wiped out by the sixth beast.

If this happens, the floating mainland islands will be occupied by the sixth beast, and the golden fairies will not be able to survive alone.

What the girl has to do is to free the golden goblin from being used as a weapon.

They should be heroes admired by all, not weapons at the disposal of the military.

For so many years, the only reason why the floating mainland islands have been able to avoid the invasion of the sixth beast is the existence of the golden goblin.

However, the military concealed this race from the world and took all the credit.

This is unbearable for girls.

However, due to the simple and kind nature of the golden goblins, the limitation of their lifespan prevents them from accumulating enough life experience to allow them to see the true face of the military. Become a sharp knife in the hands of others.

Therefore, if they want to get rid of their fate as weapons, the girls must let them understand the lies and restraints instilled in them by the military.

Let them understand that they are the heroes who save the whole world and deserve better treatment.

"William has told me a lot these days, a lot of stuff I didn't know before."

Yatogami Tohka's expression was a bit complicated, and she said sullenly: "Obviously the golden goblin is the one who protects this world, but you are locked up on a small island, and you are not allowed to communicate with other races. You were asked to die, why did you accept it?"

"I...I don't know either."

Facing Yatogami Tohka's question, Nephlian's eyes showed a trace of confusion: "Because we have always lived like this, so everyone will gradually get used to it."

"But is Ren really willing?" Yatogami Tohka asked, "You also said you were afraid of death and oblivion, right?"

"Someone must stand up and protect this world." Nephlian replied, "If I shrink back because of fear, who can take my place and fight the sixth beast?"

"Well...Actually, that's what William told me." Yatogami Tohka sighed irritably, "I'm not very good at thinking, and sometimes I can't tell who is right and who is wrong. But this reality is too cruel, right?"

"Reality is cruel."

"Is there no other way?"

"This is already the best way." Nefflian said flatly, "So, I don't want you and William to do some extreme things, because apart from us, no other race can take our place."

"Even if this is the case, we will not give up." Yatogami Tohka said, "William said that even if he can't find a replacement, he will definitely come up with a way to improve the status of the golden goblin so that you can get better results." treatment."

"It seems that William really likes Cordoli and is willing to do this for her." Neffline sighed slightly, "But you, Tohka, why are you so stubborn?"

"Because I also like Nephren, and everyone in the Fourth Fairy Warehouse!"

Yatogami Tohka showed a faint smile on her face, patted her chest and said, "So, I want to protect you too!"

Hearing this, a strange color appeared in Nephlian's eyes.

They have always been protecting others.

Now, the protected people have become them, and Nephlian has a strange feeling in her heart.

"Like something you'd say."

Sensing the determination and sincerity in Yatogami Tohka's tone, Nephron knew that she could not stop the two of them, so she stopped explaining anything and said as if to encourage: "Then, I will wait and see."

"Oh! Just wait!" Yatogami Tohka said confidently, "One day, William and I will bring you a free life!"

"A free life..."

As if touched by her words, Nephren couldn't help but imagine her future.

However, apart from staying in the fourth fairy warehouse, she couldn't think of what would happen to her future if William and Yatogami Tohka really succeeded.

Golden goblins don't think about their future.

Because they don't have a future.

From birth to death, they were only allowed to live on a small island and had almost no knowledge of the outside world.

Even if their situation can be improved one day, as Yatogami Tohka said, they will get the same freedom as other races, she doesn't know what she should do.

All she is good at is fighting.

I don't have many hobbies, so I just read novels to relieve boredom on weekdays.

However, looking at Yatogami Tohka in front of her, a thought that she had never had before emerged in her mind.

"Maybe, I can be a chef."

"Oh! That sounds really good!" Yatogami Tohka agreed, "Len definitely has the talent to be a chef! I'm sure of it!"

"I heard that some floating islands have unique delicacies. If one day the golden goblin can go to various places freely, I can practice my cooking skills and learn various dishes."

"Going on a trip?"

"Well, let's go on a trip."

Nephren turned her head and pulled the hair from her cheeks to her ears.

The figure of Yatogami Tohka was reflected in those purple eyes that seemed to be blessed by the starry sky.

"Would you like to go with me then?"

Hearing the girl's invitation, Yatogami Tohka was stunned.

I don't know how to answer.

The day when the golden goblin is truly liberated may be the day when she leaves this world.

As a passer-by in this world, even if she wanted to spend more time with Nephren, she couldn't do it.

But looking at Nephren, who was rarely interested, she couldn't refuse.

"Well, when the time comes, let's travel together."

After a moment of hesitation, she nodded and said with a smile.

"This is the agreement between us."

Chapter 24 There's a Famine

the next morning.

Although they rested for a night on the bumpy floating battleship, Cordoli and Atheya still got up on time.

For those who are called floating boats for the first time, it may be difficult to adapt to the first night, but they are already fighters who have been on floating battleships many times, and they have adapted to some bumps.

After the two washed up, they came to the room of Nephren and Yatogami Toka.

It takes three days to go to No. 15 floating island, and one day has already passed yesterday, which means that they have to let Yatogami Tohka learn the knowledge needed on the battlefield within the remaining two days.

This is no easy task.

So after getting up, they immediately came to the room of Nephren and Yatogami Tohka.

"Knock knock knock."

Knocked on the door, but there was no answer.

However, Nefren, who usually should have been prepared long ago and even got up earlier than them, did not come out to open it as soon as possible today.

"Tohka——Nephren——"

While knocking on the bedroom door, Etheya shouted, "The sun is drying your ass! It's time to get up!"

After a while, the sound of getting out of bed and the sound of dressing were heard in the bedroom.

After about 5 minutes, the bedroom door was opened.

So, Cordoli and Atheya saw two yawning young girls appearing in front of them.

Nefflian was not even fully dressed at the moment, and the shoulder straps of her dress had slipped, exposing her shoulders.

The hair is also messy, and it can be seen that it is barely tied into a double ponytail, and it is not as smooth as before.

As for Yatogami Tohka?

This guy's clothes are conjured up, so she looks even better than Nephren's.

But the degree of fatigue was even higher than that of Nephren.

Looking at the two people who were obviously not awake, Etheya covered her mouth and asked in surprise: "What did you two do last night? Why do you look like you stayed up all night?"

"Tohka moves too much when she sleeps." Nephlian rubbed her sleepy eyes, "Every time I feel sleepy, Tohka wakes me up."

"Sorry..." Yatogami Tohka rubbed the back of her head embarrassingly, "It's my first time sleeping on a boat, I'm not used to it."

Last night, after the two of them went out to relax, they returned to the dormitory from the deck to rest.

However, the turbulence at night made Yatogami Tohka, who had never built a boat and was still a floating boat, very uncomfortable.

This also directly affected Nephren who was sleeping next to her, causing both of them to fail to sleep well.

"Haha, this is the first time I slept on a floating boat." Etheya said with a smile, "I also got used to it after riding it several times, but I won't have time for you to rest for a while, don't forget today You still have to keep learning."

"I just studied for a day yesterday, why do I have to learn again!" Yatogami Tohka suddenly showed a painful expression, "Don't do this kind of thing!"

Looking at Yatogami Tohka who was covering her ears and didn't want to study at all, the three golden goblins looked a little helpless.

Although they know that Yatogami Tohka is powerful and has the strength comparable to the golden fairy who opened the fairy corridor in normal state, but on the chaotic battlefield, it is very dangerous to rampage headlessly.

If you don't have the knowledge you should have on the battlefield, you will easily fall into danger.

"Then let's start today's study a little later."

After looking at the time, Chodori decided: "Before reviewing yesterday's content, let's go have breakfast first."
