"Can you stop sucking your fingers?"

The little one glared at me unhappily, then turned slightly so that I couldn't see her face. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"It's not your fault, how did I know that your human bodies are so physically draining?"

Because she has always had a lot of magic as a backup, Elle has never tasted the taste of real hunger.

But now, after eating a large piece of barbecue, the little one still feels as if he has been hollowed out.

This is called ...... Withdrawal symptoms caused by the depletion of mana, right?

"It's not that serious~"

The little one licked his fingertips one last and then turned back to himself, satisfied that I hadn't continued to talk to her.

"No"

I handed the tissue to Ellie.

"Oh, little ghost, your service is very considerate."

"Go, I didn't open a restaurant, and besides, ......"

Suddenly I want to fight with the little guy.

"Besides, if I open a restaurant, I'm sure you'll be overwhelmed, right?"

"Hmph! Tell people like the king of big bellies."

"You two ......"

Call!

I forgot that there was Linda behind us, and the two of us immediately turned red.

"Why do you have to talk when you two have soul links?"

Huh?

Linda's question is so strange.

"Don't you and Maispear have to talk?"

The big sister shook her head.

"You don't know, he's thinking in his head almost all the time, as noisy as standing in the Dawn Council."

"Oh......"

Elle sat on my shoulder, staring at her sister with a look of regret and sympathy.

"Linda, you're so pathetic......"

The little one wanted to hurry over and touch the top of Linda's head to comfort the younger sister, who was several laps older than him.

"But I'm not as scared of the Dawn Council as Sister Ellie,"

"Hmph, you're nagging to death by Mespier!"

Linda's words blew away all the thousands of concerns in Ellie's heart, which can be regarded as a big sister's talent......

"Wait Ellie, what do you mean, I'm saying I'm an idiot with an empty head, right?"

"Hey, aren't you?"

The little one opened his eyes in surprise and looked at me with a strange look.

Yes...... This little thing, if you have the chance, you must repair her.

"Issadur, you don't mean to do bad to my sister, do you?"

"Huh?"

It's Linda, although she usually looks dumbfounded, but this keen feeling is exactly the same as Ellie's.

"Puff, little ghost, if you dare to do anything to me, Linda won't let you go"

The little guy has a sneering smile on me, and it's really infuriating.

Whew――

Forget it, messing around with the two of them here will only be a humiliation for me.

"How far will it take to get there?"

I'm hell-bent on ending this journey as soon as possible.

"If you use your units, it's probably a few hundred kilometers."

"Wait, do you want to walk there?"

"Poof, what's wrong with you, little ghost?"

Ellie's heart was full of doubts, and it seemed to her that I had suddenly become stupid.

It turned out that this was the case, and after a little peek from the soul link, I understood the little guy's plan.

Continue north from the forests of the northern Satie Chieftain, a distance of more than ten kilometers, without revealing our whereabouts, and then use the large stump portal to teleport directly to the Baishu Sea Cliffs.

"Won't there be a Satie Sheikh there?"

"Don't worry, it's not a strategic place in the first place, and trade between the Satie chieftains and the giants doesn't follow this path."

"Only sporadic uninvited guests like us would choose such a route"

Linda added in due course.

Uninvited guests......

"By the way, what kind of gifts did Meispil have prepared, and will this really interest the giants?"

Linda didn't answer my question right away, but smiled mysteriously.

"Yes"

Hmph, this big girl seems to have been assimilated by Mespier, and she behaves a little like the stinky elf king.

"Goo, little ghost......"

Elle suddenly fell on top of me as if she had lost her strength, and her mouth made a slight grunt as if she was complaining.

"You......"

I wanted to laugh at Ellie, but I found that my own situation was not optimistic.

Without the support of the heavenly magic, I am even weaker than I used to be.

Once you've tried that magical taste, it's ...... There is only a pitiful little bit of magic in the body, which is simply unacceptable.

Ellie's heart felt as if there were so many bugs crawling around, which made her feel irritated and restless.

If there was anything that could help her overcome this uncomfortable feeling......

"So why don't we slow down a little bit and take this journey with a travel mentality?"

"Oh?"

The little one's drooping ears suddenly stood up, and although he still had a tired expression on his face, Ellie was very interested in my advice.

"Roast wild food if you see it, pick it if you see wild fruit, take a few sips if you see river water, count the stars on the trees if the sun goes down, and sleep well if you are tired."

"But that would not have caught up with Mespil's plan"

Linda was the first to refute this suggestion, and the eldest girl knew how tight and urgent Meispil's plan was because of the soul link.

"簌"

Ellie got up from my shoulder and wiped the saliva from the corner of her mouth with the back of her hand.

"Forget the rest, but game ......"

"Hmph, wrap me"

At the very least, if I can help Elle get rid of some of the irritability of losing her magical powers, I'll be happy about it.

"But Linda, if we relax like this, is it really okay?"

It's not that I doubt Linda's combat effectiveness, but I want to listen carefully to the opinion of the bodyguard.

After all, since Mespier was relieved to let Linda protect me and Ellie, he must have absolute confidence in Linda's abilities.

Although I don't agree with Mespil in other aspects, if it has anything to do with combat, then I absolutely trust Mespier's judgment.

"There is no problem, considering that the expeditionary force of the Dawn Mountains is still stationed north of the Black Fire Mountains, the Satie chieftains will not act rashly"

"As long as we don't reveal our whereabouts, they will never think that we are in this position"

"And even if it's exposed, I can teleport to our location at any time."

Ho Ho, a girl who has established a soul connection with the Elf King, her very existence has become a complete solution.

Cut, along with the admiration of the feelings, an unwilling feeling also emerged from my heart.

Linda and Mespier, the soul link between the two has allowed these two to achieve rapid growth, and this sudden germination of power has even reached the level of being able to influence the entire battle situation.

And the soul link between me and Elle is not so powerful......

'Don't be so sure, little ghost'

Elle whispered to me on the soul connection.

Although I can't show it on my face, the little guy's heart is just as unwilling as mine.

Unlike me, the little one didn't feel frustrated by it.

Looking at the sun that is little by little inclined to the horizon, the reddish-brown clouds in the sky attract the attention of the little one.

Ellie's gaze peeked through the gaps in the forest, beyond the clouds and the sky, and saw something I couldn't see.

She was confident in herself and me, and in the little guy's mind, the two of us had the energy that was not lost to Mespier.

So now Ellie is hell-bent on retrieving her magic.

The White Sea Cliffs and the Giant Kingdom were not her destinations.

The two of us still have a long way to go.
