「Maa, is that so?」
Because Tira tried to desperately explain, Tira’s mama nodded in understanding in the end.
And then, Tira’s mama (I would like to know her name already) looked at Filia and said,
「Isn’t it great, Filia-san. Weren’t you scared?」
「Un, I was okay! Papa beat the scary guy!」
Scary guy……
Owen…… somehow, sorry……
「Well then, Okaasama. I think that I should start examining the research we obtained at once」
「Ah, about that. It’s unfortunate, but those documents don’t have anything useful about treating Okaasan’s disease」
「Eh?」
「This can’t be cured with Healing Jutsu in the first place」
「T, that can’t be……」
「Ma, don’t worry. I already know the source of Okaasan’s disease」
I confidently approach Tira’s mama’s bed before Tira completely loses her confidence.
「This is a curse」
Curse.
Black magic.
It’s an ancient magic that diverges from this world’s system just like Healing Jutsu.
「Curse, is it……?」
「Yes. But, it isn’t something too troublesome…… Umm, Okaasan, just before your condition worsened, didn’t you touch some old looking tool or weapon?」
「I wonder…… It’s already more than a half year ago…… Ah, but, I was organizing our storehouse that time, so it may have been during that……」
「Then, that may be the cause. A spirit may sometimes dwell in old tools」
It’s known as Tsukumogami1 in Japan.
「But, if you unknowingly throw it away, it will cast a curse on you in anger」
Humans have an occupation, Witch Doctor, who more or less specializes in dispelling such curses.
「Spirits who could cast such strong curse are very rare, though」
「You are very knowledgeable」
「Nono, it’s not that much」
「…… Why did your face redden?」
Crap.
Tira’s mama is naturally a married woman. No matter how cute she is, I shouldn’t be falling in love with her.
Rather, the husband is enviable.
Putting that aside.
The reason I know about the curse is, of course, thanks to my skill.
〈Pinnacle of Black Magic〉
I didn’t think it would be much of use, but I didn’t think it would be useful in a place like this.
「Yosh, you are fine now」
I dispelled Tira’s mama’s curse instantly.
「…… The ejection of magic power…… has stopped」
The magic power which was constantly being released suddenly stopped as if the faucet has been closed.
「Have you…… cured it?」
「Yes」
When I nodded, Tira suddenly started running while being overcome with emotions.
Is this perhaps……!
D, don’t panic.
This is where I should accept her feelings openly like a man!
I spread my arms wide and prepare myself to welcome her.
Saa, come and jump into my chest!
「Okaasama!」
The next moment, Tira runs past me and embraces her mama.
Right, huh~
「I’m glad…… Okaasama……」
「Arara, there’s nothing to cry about」
Tira’s mama gently pats the head of her sobbing daughter.
「Filia」
「N~?」
「Will you go outside with papa for a little?」
「Un」
I grasp Filia’s hand and leave the room.
It’s the Parent and child with no outsiders present thing.
I’m a man who can read the mood nanodearu.
By the way, beautiful scene of elf mother and daughter embracing each other was perfectly recorded in my memory with〈Pinnacle of Memory〉skill.
Let’s thoroughly enjoy it later.
◇ ◇ ◇
After saving Tira’s mama that day, I have been received with utmost hospitality.
I also met Tira’s papa.
Naturally (?) I have told him「Give me your daughter, please」.
The exchange went like this from there.
「I can’t possibly say ‘Yes, here you go’ to a man I don’t know!」
「You are correct, Otousama. That’s the normal reaction, isn’t it?」
「In the first place, I won’t give my daughter to anyone!」
「O, otousama……?」
「As if I’d let her marry! No matter how old she is, she will stay in this house~! We will be together even after she becomes obaachan~!」
「Hey, I would be troubled with that, though!?」
Tira’s papa is quite a doting parent.
Maa, he has such cute daughter, it’s understandable.
Seems like I have to slowly and carefully capture him……
This doting parent is, in fact, the patriarch.
That explains why they live on such huge tree.
The elf village is divided into seven settlements which are all governed by a patriarch.
Tira’s papa is one of those people.
By the way, the patriarchs’ families are the legendary king of elves――High Elves’ descendants.
「So that’s why Tira-tan is so divine?」
「…… What are you talking about?」
Tira looks at me with her eyes half closed.
The next day, we walk around the elf village.
Tira is showing me around her village.
The three of us cross bridges.
Rather, the ground is unreasonably far. Maa, it’s two hundred meters so it’s natural.
Although I say bridges, they are mostly just an unstable suspension bridges.
Considerably scary.
Along the way, Filia who innocently ran around almost fell down, I was frightened to death.
Maa, if it comes to that, I will just catch her with flight magic.
We passed by other elves several times along the way.
「Tira-sama, welcome back」
「Tira-sama, I’m glad you are safe! I heard your Okaasama is completely cured now!」
「Tira-sama, you have cleared a dungeon? Amaz~ing」
Being a patriarch’s daughters, Tira is quite adored.
「By the way, you are? I don’t think I saw you before……」
「I have been travelling for a long time. I met her in a dungeon by a chance so we came back together」
「Hee」
Ï exchanged such conversation with the elven villagers several times.
The elves don’t have a good impression of humans.
In fact, there are many elves who are hate humans.
So normally, I wouldn’t be able to hold such peaceful conversations, but
「Just where did you learn such technique? You really look like a genuine elf……」
I have disguised myself.
Therefore, no matter how you look, I look like a genuine elf, it’s perfect.
〈Pinnacle of Disguise〉
It’s thanks to this skill.
By the way, I have disguised Filia into an elven little girl with this power too.
Rather, elven little girl, seriously cute……
I wouldn’t show her to Owen Jiisan no matter what.
「This thing, black magic, I won’t be surprised anymore no matter what you do……」
「Papa, ama~zing!」
「Fufufu, papa is great, right?」
「…… However, I’m really, really sorry」
I’m confused by Tira’s sudden apology.
「Eh? About what?」
「…… Even though you are a benefactor who saved both me and my mother, you can’t even walk around without disguise……」
Uun. I realyl don’t mind, though.
I’m fully enjoying myself.
In the first place, a conflict between races isn’t anything odd.
「But, why do elves hate humans?」
「That is……」
Tira then told me the reason.
The reason why elves hate humans.
「Maa, is that so?」
Because Tira tried to desperately explain, Tira’s mama nodded in understanding in the end.
