The grand elders each shouted with a loud voice proclaiming their opinions, and the hall fell into pandemonium.
Dylan who looked at the state of affairs and Patriarch Brian sitting at the back simultaneously let out a loud sigh.
Eventually, with lunch interposed, the back and forth dispute was brought to a tentative conclusion, but it was hard to say that the settled conclusion was very significant.
“For now, we’ll just wait and see…”
While the circular floor soundlessly slid down the cylindrical room, Dylan stood next to Ariane, muttering the conclusion reached a while ago.
The Rhoden Kingdom had began a war 600 hundred years ago; however, the number of engagements were nearly nonexistent. At that time, the Tishiento dukes kept an opposing stance on war with the elves and broke off from the Rhoden kingdom, forming the Rinburuto Grand Duchy.
Since then, interactions with the humans such as trade were only limited to those of Rinburuto.
At the time of the war, the majority of the troops of the Rhoden Kingdom’s king and feudal lords were lost; it fell into the brink of destruction. Fortunately, the country still remained to this day thanks to the fact that the Reburan Empire, in a dispute for succession of the throne, had split into East and West, unfolding with it a fierce war that was the only saving grace allowing the kingdom to recover.
Afterwards, the king of Rhoden 400 years ago formally apologized for the war, and in a display of goodwill, signed a treaty that prohibited the capture of elves.
Certainly, the feudal lord’s assassination this time might have been excessive, but the fault lay with the kingdom ─ an opinion that would be hard to appeal.
In anticipation of the arrival of an official messenger, by saying that preparation had to be done, things had finally settled down.
“I’m sorry, Elder Dylan.”
His daughter, who pulled the trigger this time, had a gloomy expression with downcast eyes. Gently caressing the head of beautiful white hair she inherited from her mother, Dylan gave a wry smile.
“Ariane, you’re still young; besides, the matter still hasn’t been settled yet, right?”
Saying so, he took out the aforementioned contract relating to the trafficking of elves from his breast pocket. It was said that the investigation of the people mentioned in the contract would again be entrusted to Dylan.
“It seems like you’ll have a chance to repent since they asked you to remain a part of the investigation. We can officially request assistance from Arc-kun this time. Nevertheless, that took longer than expected; there’s no longer a chance to meet with Ivin after specially coming to Maple.”
Dylan had a slightly worn-out expression as he shrugged his shoulders. Ivin was another daughter of his ─ Ariane’s older sister.
“Did you have some business with Onee-san?”
Ariane had a look of curiosity as she recalled the unyielding face of the sister she hadn’t seen in a while.
“Eh, have you not spoken to her yet, Ariane? I heard that she’s getting married next year. Though actual feelings about it haven’t set in as I’ve yet to see her fiancé’s face…”
Ariane was so surprised at the her father’s brief comment that it looked like her jaw would dislocate.
“What?! You’re lying!? That battle maniac of a sister who said she would never get married in her life?! Is the fiancé some warrior whom I know?”
“No, according to what I’ve heard, she’s engaged to a farmer.”
Ariane could only express a look of disbelief.
An unparalleled battle enthusiast, possessing abilities that surpassed even Ariane’s, she was a powerful warrior prided by Maple, boasting of outstanding strength above all else. Her sister was one who showed only interest in strong opponents, so Ariane could only be dumbfounded by the story that seemed to be about an entirely different person.
When they left the giant tree tower that served as the central building while listening to such talk, the sky’s early-morning blue color had already changed into that of dusk.
The magical tools’ light from the windows of the large tree buildings in addition to the street lights underfoot repelled the approaching darkness.
The sister she thought would never change had changed in a way unknown to herself, causing some feelings of bewilderment and loneliness to be born in her heart.
As she was lost in thought over these newly formed emotions, with every passing moment, the sky darkened.
With few words between them, Ariane and Dylan walked side-by-side down the well-lit street as they quickly returned to the shrine leading back to Raratoia.
