To Deprive a Deprived Person

"My head hurts"

"Uh......my throat is thorny"

Beastmen's children, including Hende and Reteru, were being nursed in the same room. This is the home of Rubanov, the head of the beastmen.

"Look, you see. You didn't listen to adults, so you were punished!"

A beast man replacing Hende and Reteru's father scolds the sleeping children.

"Don't speak so loud!"

"Silent......"

Is it because they were scolded by the adults in the village? Or is it because they entered the forest? The next day, the beastmen's children complained of upset.

"Hyaahya. This is Francas's disease, it's a beast man's fever. It's a serious symptom when you grow up, but if you have it during childhood, the fever will go down in 10 days. It's okay. Until then, if you look away like this, there's nothing wrong with your life, so the king won't worry about it"

An old beastman who cares for the children explains to Yuu who came to visit. Behind them, children of other races were worried and came to see what was going on.

"Who is worried?"

"King, my head hurts~"

"I blame the always noisy kid because it's quiet"

"Ueeh. King you idiot~

Yuu closes his ears to the high-pitched voices of the crying children.

"Look, you guys are going crazy. I don't know how it will affect other races"

A beastman drives out the children who have come to visit.

"Is Inpika-chan all right?"

"I heard she was there"

"Reteru-chan, are you messing with me?"

"I'm sure the king will do something about it!"

The children stare at Yuu with promising eyes.

"Why do I go out of my way to heal even if I leave it alone. And it's a good medicine for them. This will make them a little quieter"

"Eh, but Inpika-chan and others tried to make the king happy"

"Poor......"

"Noisy"

When scolded by Yuu, the children run away to scatter like spider cubs.

----------------------------------

"I, It's cold......"

The stormy wind slams Nina's cheeks with turbulently moving snow.

"It's snowing"

Namari gets excited when she sees the snow. She runs around in the snow, but Ran doesn't seem to like the cold, unlike Koro, so she stays close to Yuu. When it comes to Momo, she must get out of Yuu's flying cap before you can see her face while she is withdrawn.

"Namari, come back"

"Odono-sama, it's snowing!"

"You can see it by looking at it"

Yuu casts the 2nd rank white magic 『Pleasant Temperature Air Pokka』on the frolicking Namari. It is a magic that keeps the ambient temperature of the subject constant. Immediately Nina rushes towards Yuu saying 「Me too～」. Yuu and his friends are in a mountain called Toranhorn in the Udon Kingdom.

"Why did you come here?"

Namari playing in the snow asks Yuu.

"Huuhuu~. There is a flower that has the effect of reducing the fever of beastmen――ihyaii. Yuu~, what's that~"

Nina, who was hit by Yuu's magic bullet on her nose, protests while rubbing her nose.

"Don't say anything appropriate. We just came to pick up plants that are only available in the snowfields"

"Master is right. Nina-san, don't say anything appropriate"

"Aah! Mari-chan, that's not good~"

"What is it?"

Yuu summons Namari and Koro, leaving Nina and Marifa in a silly dispute behind.

"Is it okay? If you find a flower with alternating red and blue petals, bring the roots together so as not to damage them"

"Okay, leave it to me!"

"Vonn!"

Koro and Ran bark as if they were not defeated by Namari, and disappeared into the blizzard as it was.

"Koro, Ran, unfair!"

"Ah, Namari-chan, you can't run through～"

"Master, leave it to me"

Then Namari and Nina run away.

"They're noisy"

When he muttered, Yuu also went through the snow.

"I wish I hadn't come if it was cold"

Does she care about the outside? Momo pops out of Yuu's flying cap and immediately loses the cold and withdraws.

"Diminutive person"

Suddenly, he hears a voice calling out Yuu who is collecting plants. The shadow that floats in the snowstorm is a huge body that easily exceeds 30 meters.

"You know this is the territory dominated by Uracano, the snow dragon"

As if the words themselves have power. It was a trembling voice from the core of the body.

"Or did you recklessly come to challenge me, the descendant of the Frozen Cloud Star Dragon Moose, where the great eight great dragon kings are one pillar?"

The stormy snow and the wind itself strikes Yuu with the illusion of being hostile.

"Can you hear me?"

Uragano asks anxiously, but Yuu is silently collecting plants.

"Can you hear me?"

"It's annoying. I'm busy. Can't you see it?"

The snowstorm is falling as if upset. Then, the snow dragon Uragano reveals its appearance. It is revered and feared as the god of the snowy mountain toranhorn. It is ridiculous to count the heroes and knights who have challenged so far. Depending on the dwarf people, it can be said that it is a symbol of the horror of the snowy mountains.

"A, Annoying? Regarding......this me?"

When Yuu glances at Uragano, he moves to another place with interest.

"Y......You. Wait! Wait right now!!"

"Ah, noisy"

Yuu blocked his ears with a disgusted expression in the yelling that shook the mountain.

"Odono-sama, look at this!"

In the snow hut made by Yuu, Namari shows Yuu the plants she has collected.

"Well done"

That said, Yuu taps Namari's head. Namari with a smile on her face rejoices with Koro and Ran beside her.

"Yuu, are we going home yet?"

"No, I want to collect a little more after having lunch"

Yuu tells the schedule of the afternoon while putting the thing which alternately overlaps pork and vegetables in the pot.

"I see～. But......"

Nina mutters while looking out of the snow hut.

"What's wrong?"

"Umm. Is it okay to leave it alone?"

"Master, what shall be done? If you give an order, I and Koro will soon be――"

Koro and Ran, who have been waiting for the meal now, have a surprised expression.

"Eeeii! I know you're there!! Come out quickly!!"

It was a loud angry voice. It shakes so much that you think that the snow hut will break.

"Namari, I'm busy, so take care of it"

"All right!"

As soon as Yuu said that, Namari jumped out of the snow hut.

"Muu!? What are you?"

"I'm Namari! I'm a strong demon!"

"I, Is that so?"

As expected, the snow dragon Uragano has no dignity when the other party is such a small child.

"I am not fighting with someone as little as you. There is a cheeky human over there"

"It's no good because Odono-sama is busy right now"

"Busy? You're telling me that there is something more important than this, even though the snow dragon Uragano is here on his purpose"

Along with Uragano's words, the wind and snow slam into Namari's face, but Namari has a calm face.

"Yeah! Right now? He is making pot. He is going to put pork and vegetables in it this way. It's sour, so it's delicious!"

Uragano's irritation doesn't stop at Namari who uses her whole body to explain the pot that Yuu is making.

"What? A dwarf who took a rude attitude to me said that he couldn't deal with me because he was making a meal?"

"Yup!!"

Namari answers happily if it is finally understood.

"Don't be silly!! This me――"

At that time, from inside the snow hut.

"Namari, the pot is ready!"

"I'll come. See you"

With that said, Namari leaves Uragano and goes into the snow hut.

"Why don't you wait for me? I told you to wait!"

In the end, Uragano waited until Yuu and his friends finished their meal.

"It was delicious~"

Namari appears while rubbing her belly.

"Waa. Yuu, its still there~"

"It's a persistent dragon"

It seems to be said terribly.

"Even if I go back to a distant memory, such as a person who made me angry by fooling me so far! At a close, I knew that it was not in the midst of the blood of the great dragon, your irreverent attitude and worth of magic. Now, let's fight to the death that put each other's survival on the line!"

"Namari, if there are any other unusual plants, please collect them

"All right!"

Ignoring Uragano, who is full of fighting spirit, Yuu gives instructions to Namari.

"Hey! Don't ignore me!!"

"It's annoying......"

Momo, enjoying a nap after lunch, comes out of Yuu´s flying cap. Apparently moody.

"It seems that this is an area where it doesn't really snow"

"That's right. Because of my power, the neighborhood has become a land of extreme cold. What's wrong with that?

"Because of that, plants that grow only in the snowfields occasionally grow naturally in the dung of migratory birds, and there are no other animals or monsters"

"That's why I say what's wrong!!

"What is fun with just one animal in a place like this?"

The fighting spirit disappears from Uragano, who ruminates Yuu's words in his head and stands stunned.

"Yuu, are you okay?"

"It's okay. Let's collect more than that"

"It's a heat-solving material, isn't it?"

"What are you talking about?"

While laughing softly, Nina overtakes Yuu with a sullen expression.

"Y......Youu. This me....... I'm poor dragon?"

"No one said that"

"No! You said that!! Only!"

------------------------------------------

At the house of the beastmen Chief Rubanov, Yuu lined up the plants from Toranhorn.

"Oh, this is exactly the ice and snow flowers. With this, we can lower the fever of children!"

"Ah? That's right. I just came to brag about the plants I had collected. Well, if I had one, I would do it. I have no plans to use it separately"

"No!"

Namari imitates Yuu and Marifa simply stands by Yuu without saying anything.

"Ihyaii!? Yuu is mean!"

Yuu shoots a magic bullet at Nina's nose who is grinning.

"That's why King, I said earlier......"

Rubanov asks anxiously.

"It was angry and followed me. I was just wondering what to do with the northern mountains, so I gave it to it"

"It's not something you rarely say, like you did it. Even if the other party is a dragon, isn't it?"

"Even if I tell it, if you have any complaints, Rubanov will tell it personally. It also said something about thanking me, something I'm not sure about"

"I, I'm not kidding! Complaining to a dragon"

With that said, Rubanov put his tail between his crotch.
