Estio Volume 8

– Episode 17

Fen was also a little embarrassed because a high-status person refused to be treated by himself. He grabbed one of the mugs lying around and drank it. The coffee that had been taken down the day before had not cooled down and had not had a rest, had a bitter taste. Fen frowned slightly and put the cup back in place.

“Anyway, excuse me for being late. Ignis Guild Deputy Master Fen Lensky.”

“Movin.”

Moobin removed the family name and revealed only the name. It was a way of covering your eyes anyway, but it meant that you weren’t here as a duke. As a courtesy, the exchange of greetings ended briefly. Fen focused on Estio again.

“By the way, leader, how did you come to bring Red Crow?”

Finally, it was the gist. Estio told Fen how he met Lero at the Vatican. It was an ordinary meeting, nothing special. However, Fen couldn’t get rid of his troubled smile the whole time he was listening to the story.

“Ah… it’s really hurting my head.”

I kept sipping as I felt a burning sensation in my throat, and the coffee that I had been pushing not to eat was suddenly showing the bottom. Fen looked into the cup with coffee stains on it with a shaky gaze and spoke again.

“Leader, I’m asking this just in case, do you know what a bad tide is?”

“I know.”

I wish I didn’t know, but knowing that I brought him back made things even more difficult. Fen Lensky took a chocolate from the drawer and put it in his mouth and chewed it. When I tasted the sweetness, my brain felt a little clearer.

“chaw?”

“It’s done.”

“Hey, you still don’t know how to enjoy life.”

Fen put the snack food he recommended to Estio but was rejected with a single knife into the drawer and felt sorry for him.

“The Red Crow is a bad omen, a bird that brings curses.”

The submaster immediately mumbled while biting the chocolate.

“Our empire is monotheistic.”

Estio, who had been at the Holy See until recently, could not have known about it. Fen continued to speak, daring to bring up everything he knew.

“The people of the Empire pray every Sunday in the chapel to receive blessings. The stronger the belief in God, the stronger the rejection of the devil.

Fen reminded us that bringing Red Crow alive is a serious problem.

“No one wants to have an ominous bird around.”

Tit.

Lero sat in a circle on Estio’s palm and made a sound resembling a sparrow.

“Maybe it’s a blessing for Red Crow to catch the eyes of the leader. No matter how sinister he may use his ominous powers, he will never be able to curse the leader who controls his mind.”

The light blue eyes were filled with pink hair bundles clearly. The submaster insisted.

“Let’s kill that bird.”

A cool silence passed. For a moment, Fen, who had a pink bird in her eyes, smiled and shook the empty cup playfully.

“I want to say…, but our leader doesn’t like it.”

In the midst of the silence, only the chirping of birds resounded. Lero looked up at Estio’s hard face, not knowing what was going on in the conversation, and only his head tilted back and forth.

“Don’t stare at me like that. I was just making a very commonsense suggestion from the position of receiving counseling for concerns.”

Estio wasn’t the only one who had a hard expression on his face. When the whole party around him gave him cold glances, Fen Lenski hurriedly made excuses.

“If you had planned to kill Red Crow to finish it, you wouldn’t have come to me, Leader?”

Estio nodded slowly.

“Then what?”

“I’m here to get permission.”

“You can’t take them with you. If bad luck catches people’s eyes, even the leader is in danger.”

It didn’t matter to people whether the Red Crow really cursed or not. When people find out that they have an ominous demon bird, Estio and the Ignis Guild can gain notoriety.

‘The kid at that time has developed so far.’

Fen Lensky smiled proudly, feeling that Estio has grown quite a bit over the past year. A person who has the special ability to read and manipulate minds. However, he, who was like a child who could neither look around nor negotiate, has now come to the Deputy Master himself to ask for advice in order not to harm the guild.

Fen knew that Estio had the upper hand in terms of strength, but society does not live solely on the strength of an individual. The growth of the new guild executive, who had many gaps, was even extraordinary, so Fen gave the answer without thinking for a long time.

“Okay, I’ll register you as a guild pet. Instead, I need to wear a disguise. Change that striking feather to a plain color.”

The Red Crow is famous for its red feathers rather than its appearance. Once the color is covered, it will be difficult to spot the difference from common birds.

“Try to ask the Magic Research Department. There must be something like indelible hair dye.”

As soon as he heard about the research department, Estio could also think of Schuenberg. If she were her, she had a lot of mysterious magic tools, so she seemed to be able to make her magic hair dye with ease, as Fen said.

“Thanks for the permission.”

“Nothing to say. But leader.”

Fen gnawed at the almond-infused chocolate and blinked at Lero.

“That guy, are you sure he didn’t harm humans?”

chirp, chirp.

Lero was a small bird the size of the palm of his hand, but keeping it alive was so dangerous that this procedure was necessary. Estio, who had read what Fen Lenski was worried about, responded with a confident voice.

“From the moment we first met, Lero had no intention of harming anyone. If Lero cursed a person.”

Two small dots-like eyes between the bundles of pink fur turned towards Estio.

“Please hold me accountable for not stopping.”

“Heh, well, if the leader is in charge, it’s no longer a matter of arguing.”

The Boomaster sighed through his nose and laughed. Estio, who had the ability of the spiritual world, was the best prohibition in existence. Fen Lensky knew that if he had said ‘I’m not going to stop’, that would be the end of the situation. Even after that, they left the place to chat over freshly brewed coffee.

Estio, who obtained permission from the submaster to raise Lero at the guild headquarters, went to the Magic Research Department and asked to make hair dye.

A small ribbon was tied to Lero’s toes, which had been transformed into ordinary sparrows using a magic potion. It was a guild pet ribbon with name and affiliation written on it.

Estio released Lero to the guild garden.

whoops.

Lero didn’t fly straight away, but landed on the grass and didn’t understand the English language. The innocent Red Crow was unaware that his feathers had changed color.

“I will live here from now on.”

“Tit!”

“There is no need to run away from people, and there is no need to go hungry because there is nothing to eat.”

“Tweet, chirp.”

The garden for the guild pet is currently quiet. It was an empty seat that had not yet been filled after a blood storm caused by the fuel economy the other day. Among the snow-covered rocks, yellow dead leaves could be seen.

Although it was winter, there were enough food, large trees, and a clean pond for the animals to adapt to. Migratory birds were seen dipping their necks in the pond after resting for a while. This guild pet garden was an area that people had to respect.

‘half.’

Estio immediately remembered the rat serpent who was smiling brightly at the place where Lero was standing. He was a child who shouldn’t have died that way. Just as power secretly entered Estio’s fist, a soft voice was heard.

“…are you crying?”

With a chirp, a clear bird chirping, Lero jumped up to his feet.

“Did I do something wrong? I’m sorry. It’s okay if you don’t have to take care of it.”

“……!”

The little bird looked pale as he looked into his eyes. In fact, Estio wasn’t crying. Even so, seeing Lero, who recognized the emotional state of others like a ghost and apologized for not doing anything wrong, Estio was startled as if on fire.

“sorry. I won’t see you anymore……”

It was as if he was looking at his former self.

Even if I dyed the feathers, the little bird that obeyed without asking why even if I asked him to hide in his arms so that he wouldn’t be noticed until I dyed it continued to keep an eye on Estio. As Estio stood still without saying anything, Parker, who was puzzled, called him from behind.

“Leader, what is Lero saying?”

“……”

No words came out at all. While Estio was confused about how to resolve the misunderstanding, Lero got off his feet first.

“Thank you for that. Hi…….”

“See you again!”

「?!」

A huge white-haired monkey squatted next to Estio. And looking at the little bird, he laughed hehehe.

“Estio is going to do a quest right now. What is a quest? It was like doing other people’s requests and getting money. Money is so difficult, I don’t even know Neju.”

Tit.

Lero, an ordinary bird, could not understand Neju’s words at all because he did not know human language. Still, Neju calmed the frightened bird as gently as possible.

“I’ll come back here again when the quest is finished.”

A large white-haired monkey’s finger gently touched Lero’s beak.

“Then meet Neju again. Hehe.”

“I’ll go buy some delicious cookies!”

Parker, who seemed to wave his hand involuntarily, said, ‘Can’t we eat the leaking cookie?’ murmured. Lero, who had been blankly looking at them in turn, turned his gaze to Estio again.

“Estio?”

“…I’ll come to see you again.”

The bird’s beak opened slightly. Countless stories that are not well communicated in words flowed into Lero through a black stream. Estio did not fear, blame, or hate the bad news. He said that none of his companions threw stones at Red Crow. Only now Lero realized that Estio had extended his hand to sleep with him.

“thanks!”

Lero, who had let out a wave of thoughts without trembling for the first time, immediately flapped his wings and flew through the trees. He was the first family member to fill the long empty guild garden.

I didn’t know what Estio was talking about with Lero, but Parker, who had been warmed up for nothing, stole the tip of his nose, which he had earned in the cold wind.

“Good for you.”

“By the way, it’s a bit surprising for a friend of the join tribe. Aren’t you afraid of being a cursed bird?”

Mubin, who had been familiar with Parker who was usually afraid, asked, patting him on the shoulder. Then Parker rolled his eyes.

“Hey, it’s small.”

“Is it a size problem? Oh, and looking back, I’m still surprised to see Neju every morning.”

Mubin, knowing the factor, chuckled. Neju was still in charge of Parker’s morning wake up. Seeing Parker astonished every day, Ahur once said, ‘Isn’t it like an instinct that flows through the blood of a join tribe like a cat that is surprised to see a snake?’ Of course, Parker agreed.

It was concluded between them that the nemesis that had tormented Parker’s distant ancestors was a giant wild animal.
