Otoko Nara Ikkokuichijou no Aruji o Mezasa Nakya, ne?

Year 7444, Month 1, Day 1

As I approached close to the side of the pond the fairies were still laughing, frolicking, and flying around as if I wasn't here. I was certainly surprised after seeing the fairies for the first time but after calming down and Identifying a couple of them there's several things I've understood.

1. All of the fairies can use all elemental magics.

2. Other than magic the fairies have the special skills Naming and Fairy Sight.

3. They have individual names. I guess they did the ceremony using their special skill Naming.

4. They're freely flying around using the wings like a mayfly or dragonfly from their back.

5. Their height (size?) is only about 30 cm and they don't wear any clothes.

6. There's individuals that have a long lifespan as well (Over 100 years old is common and there's even a couple of them over 300 years old).

7. They have a lot of MP because of the level of their magic special skills and age.

8. I don't know if it's because of their late age but their HP isn't balanced with the other ability values (it's low).

And above all else what's important is that different from monsters, on the bottom the Identify window there's properly an item for Experience, related to their body level. In other words, you could say that the Fairy race is different from what is normally considered monsters. Also, going off of the above points, you could say that the 7th and 8th are racial characteristics so I can't say it's all that unusual.

I walk to the side of the pond and after taking a good look, the pond has a diameter of about 200 m and what I thought was a small island in the center was actually a peninsula. If I walk a bit I should be able to cross over. I can see a lot of fairies gathered around the end of that peninsula. Let's try going over to there.

I somehow don't find it amusing that they're not showing any interest in me at all. It's not like I particularly want them to make a fuss but if I try matching it up to myself while thinking about it and if something like a 7-8 m high giant were to suddenly appear I think everyone would be equally surprised as they meet them.

I'm being ignored but it's not like I want to create some strife from my side either. What is it? This feeling. Being ignored itself, is better than it becoming an uproar but if I just keep getting ignored like this and somehow you know~ If possible I want to have some friendly communication, is my true feelings but it's inconvenient to keep being ignored as well.

I think it would be possible for me to catch several of them and make them into an exhibition or sell them at a high price to the royal family but even if it's me if I were to be attacked by this many with magic all at once it would be bad. They only have at most a bit over 100 MP but since they've lived for over 100 years, there was even one with their magic special skill at MAX. I have no intention at all of taking hostile action towards them.

If they can talk, I just want to try asking about the dungeon and about the mechanism for that door. If possible I'd like to try asking about what happened with the founder George Rombert the First in the past as well. After that is...that's right. It would be the best if they would teach me some spells that I don't know.

During the time I'm heading towards the end of the peninsula, I make sure to pay attention to my feet so in the worst case I don't end up stepping on a fairy laying on the ground. I don't know if the fairies are just thinking of me as something like a large moving rock but they're sitting down on my shoulder or resting for a bit on my head, they're all just having their own way. In order to not surprise them I tried calling out "Hello" in a small voice but it seems they don't understand.

It seems the fairies are talking in their own language made of extremely high sounds something like "pirurururu" and no matter what I say to them they aren't responding.

I arrived at the end of the peninsula. The trunk of the large tree has countless cave-like holes in it and it's almost like a mansion for the fairies. There's a lot of fairies going in and out of it. I slowly walked to below the tree and sat down on an appropriate rock before starting to talk to the fairies.

I wonder if there's no one who understands my words?

"Hey~ hello."

"Do you live here?"

"What do you eat?"

"Do you have some sort of representative?"

"DO monsters not come here?"

"Do you know Baldukk?"

No matter how much I talk to them the fairies won't directly give me an answer. This is no good. I sigh as a small fairy is pulling on and opening the right nostril of my nose. I'll try identifying the special skill Fairy Sight that I've seen for the first time.

Special Skill: Fairy Sight; A special skill that the Fairy race possess. It includes Infrared Vision, Night Vision, Far Sight, Clairvoyance, X-Ray Vision, and including strengthened vision, can see mana. This ability increases based on level.

Don't joke with me. What's with that convenient skill?

It might still be a bit too soon for lunch but it seems like this place is safe so I'll have some lunch with the feel of a picnic and head back.
