◆
After grinding the Kiruk grass and drinking it together with water, Torr's sneezing has eased up a lot now.
While still holding a bit of a grudge toward each other, Torr and Asmo guided us to a place where there are a lot of animals.
Each time he saw the flora and fauna in the forest, Viscount Dole’s eyes shine and he observes them. Then he closes his eyes many times, diving into the world of fantasy in his mind and doing that repeatedly.
I don’t know if the experience right now will be able to be helpful in his scenario, but I thought it will be fine if it can help his imagination a little.
「After this, when it comes to a beautiful place where animals are likely to live then it’s the lake, I guess?」
「That’s right. We may find them in the eastern forest」
The eastern forest is basically a flat and wide area. It is also far from the mountain so it has slightly less conspicuous places when you compare it to the western forest.
And so, you might say that the western forest is the better place to go but, the place is far and you will be tired if you are not used to walking. So as expected, it would be harsh to bring the guest - Viscount Dole - to that place.
「Then, let’s go back once we take a break at the lake」
「Hm, I have no objection to that.」
Viscount Dole nodded to my suggestion.
And so, we headed for the nearby lake.
As we proceeded down the road in the forest and walk through a small animal trail, we arrived at an open area.
There was the surface of water that was tens, hundreds of meters wide over there.
It’s as though someone is making a hole in the forest and pouring a mass of water into it. It was such a sight that people will think that the lake here naturally integrated into the forest.
「Ooh, what beautiful scenery!」
「It is like a resting area made by the forest」
Just as Tickle describes, there are a lot of herbivore animals that came to drink on the lake shore.
It is relatively rare for monsters to appear here compared to other places, so they should also be able to drink water peacefully.
Those animals will not be able to be comfortable like that if there were many dangerous monsters inhabiting this place.
Hurray for a forest with no monsters. It is thanks to Nord-tousan and Elna-kaasan for creating such a peaceful land.
Seeing this beautiful view, I feel like I understood a little about the feeling of being proud of my own territory.
You can take a deep breath of the clear air, making it feels like the air purifying your lungs.
「Gregor-sama, there is a frog here!」
「Whaat! Where!」
As Tickle says that while looking into the water, Viscount Dole quickly comes running and crouched down to look.
「Ah, umm…...」
「Tickle, where is the frog?」
「I, it’s here!」
「Ooh, it’s true. Gekota is swimming!」
I was also driven by the impulse to try and look into the water, but Tickle and Viscount Dole looked so happy about it so I decide to leave them alone.
Instead, I walk a little further away from them and peer into the water.
Then I felt two signs of malice coming from behind.
I had a method to intercept them, but if I do that then it’s going to turn into a quandary and likely going to ruin Viscount Dole and Tickle’s peaceful time.
While fed up with the action of my bad friends, as usual, I start walking on the water by placing Shield on its surface.
「「Ueeh!?」
As I start walking on water, Torr and Asmo’s balance was broken as they pitched forward.
「Shoot! I’m gonna fal――gueeh!」
However, due to the Shield I placed on the water, Torr and Asmo’s faces hit the Shield.
Normally, it wouldn’t hurt as much since they will fall into the water but now let’s consider them as getting their just desserts.
「H, huh? I don’t fall into the water!?」
「There is something like a transparent board here.....」
「That was Shield as a footing so you won’t fall」
After I tell them that, Torr and Asmo start to hit the Shield as though checking on it, and then they stand up.
「Amazing, it’s true! We don’t fall despite being on the water!」
「It’s like we’re walking on water」
Just as Asmo says, we are just walking on water using Magic.
