The ce where the ghost gnome of the earth is is called the Kingdom of Ellie.


    Most of its people are dwarfs, about 80 centimeters tall for adults, and now live underground.


    Dwarf was thought to be an imaginary creature that appeared in a picture book, but he actually lived quietly and discreetly.


    The Ellie Kingdom is a kingdom built underground with the power of the Ghost Gnome.


    It covers about a third of the underground of the Kingdom of Phdelphia and even of the Kingdom of Rapizuli.


    Nevertheless, there are not many residents.


    It is mostly a mining site, such as ore, and its residential area is a small country that covers only about half the area of the Kingdom of Phdelphia.


    Food is traded with the Kingdom of Phdelphia to earn just what it takes to live.


    And the current location is Dwarf Castle in the Kingdom of Ellie. A castle of ore dug into a cave, it''s cool and refreshing.


    Hmmm...


    Lucia Rose, who was taken away all of a sudden, cried out loudly. The two Dwarves'' maids are desperately trying to cure it.


    They are about seventy centimetres tall, but they are adult women of honor.


    "Oh, Princess, please show me your lovely face."


    "Ah, don''t stop crying!"


    Hmmm...


    But Lucia Rose never stopped crying.


    "It''s rattling, it''s fun to hear sounds ~"


    "Without me! Ah, you''re notughing!"


    "Ehhhhhhhhh!


    I try hard, but I can''t help it. The maids are in trouble, and see their Lord.


    "Dear Norm, where the hell is this child?


    "Aren''t you a human child... yet so young?"


    Our maids are crying because they can''t help but have no experience taking care of human children.


    "Patience," Norm said.


    "... that child is our star of hope."


    The ghost gnome of the earth speaks with a slender little voice.


    Dwarves are simrly small and about 60 centimeters tall.


    My forehair is long and my eyes are all covered. A mushroom with brown hair and a small ore crown on its head.


    He is wearing a thick cape and a waist bag containing mining tools.


    Norm strokes Lucia Rose''s crying head... but she doesn''t stop crying.


    "Aww... stop crying, please..."


    The maids rushed to the troubled gnome and said, "What''s going on? Ask for exnation.


    "... in fact, the main fire we use for cksmithing - the me spirit is about to disappear..."


    "Hmm!?"


    "I really had to tell you, but... I''m sorry I couldn''t tell you... but this is all my power..."


    The maids looked face to face at the depressed gnome. Lucia Rose stopped crying perfectly because she felt the serious air.


    "Oh, good girl, princess."


    "Please be quiet for a moment."


    "Ahhh...."


    The gnome caressed his chest down at Lucia Rose, who was so carefree, and proceeded.


    "We''ve been making legends with cksmiths."


    "Yes"


    The maids nodded at Norm''s words.


    Dwarves are a family that lives with gnomes and love cksmiths. However, I am not interested in honor, but I have just silently forged and made weapons.


    In fact, it was the dwarves who made the legendary swords in this world.


    There''s no need for such a thing because there''s no war going on right now... but for that matter, it''s going to be a household necessity... in fact, there are quite a few good items.


    "... everything we train is first-ss. Although this wonderful technology has been cultivated so far, it can only be demonstrated with the fire of the me spirit, right?


    "Yes, the me Spirit is a holy me for cksmithing. With this fire, we can build something wonderful."


    "For us, it''s essential -- it''s like water to live."


    Yes, the me spirit is a very important fire for Norm and Dwarf.


    I can''t think of anything that happened when the fire went out. The maids think it''s not like they''re grabbing a child like this.


    "Lord Norm, for us, the Spirit of Fire is life itself."


    "Can''t you do something to keep the fire on fire?


    The maid''s desperate voice shuts Gnome''s mouth once.


    "When I saw the fire of the burning spirit, oh, no more... yes, I thought"


    When I thought so - I found a big fire.


    This child is Lucia Rose. We are the saviors of Smander, who possessed the power of fire. "


    "What do you mean...!!"


    Norm hurried to grab Lucia Rose before the fire went out.


    The maids took a serious look at Lucia Rose and shed tears. That''s all, the Spirit of me is important to Dwarves.


    "Good, we don''t have to lose the fire."


    "It''s horrible just to think you can''t cksmith with the fire of the me spirit."


    Good. Good. The dwarfs rubbed their chests down.


    "Wait, Master Norm!


    "Aren''t his parents with him?


    "Eh... uh, if you revive the fire of the me spirit, I''ll go back to you properly...?


    The maid blues his face to a possy-talking gnome.


    "Which princess are you really ~!?"


    Dwarves screamed at the Ore Castle.


    "Tiara, His Majesty Saravia has replied. Lucia seems to be safe."


    "Really!?"


    To help Lucia Arrows, the Tiararoses are aiming for Lapis Lazuli with horses. I''m in a town on my way to stay.


    On this riding, you''ll be heading for the Kingdom of Phdelphia: Tiararose, Aquastead, Elliot, Talmo, and Keith. There are several other knights. Filine is not good at riding, so she''s going after her in a carriage.


    If you were a smander, would you know about Lucia Rose? So I had Elliot send me a letter and I got a reply right away.


    Tiararose sat on his bed, and when he went to bed, his strength rxed.


    "However, even Smander doesn''t know the condition or the details. I can''t feel the magic of a particrly disturbed fire, so it seems to be calming down...."


    "I''m just d to know that Lucia is safe. Good, Lucia... I''m going to help you right away, so wait...."


    Tiararose''s eyes became hot.


    Even if he were safe, he would be worried.


    Aquastead sat next to the crying tear rose and hugged her thin shoulders. Tiararose leans on his shoulder and gets a soft word.


    "I''ve never been away from Lucia for so long."


    Aren''t you up in the middle of the night and crying? Do you eat properly? Isn''t it terrible?


    As it stands, Tiararose is more anxious and will manage.


    "I''ve always been with you.... I want to hug you quickly."


    "... yes"


    Tiararose and Aquastead fell asleep with their hands tied together.


    In the morning, the well-dressed Tiararose performs radio gymnastics. I have been riding a horse all day, so I carefully rx.


    The Aquasteads who watched radio gymnastics at first were wondering, but now they''re doing it together.


    "But you''re getting on pretty well."


    As Tiararose watched the horse, Keith came.


    "It''s Keith. I didn''t think the Fairy King had a chance to ride a horse."


    That''s why Tiararoseughs bitterly at me not to say what I thought I couldn''t ride. Keith and the Fairy King are always magical.


    "I''ve been on a horse before. I mean, you don''t have to ride, do you? It''s strange that I can''t ride it."


    "... I see."


    --Keith is an excellent motor nerve.


    I can easily imagine that I did it without practicing. I''d rather have a little exercise nerve.


    Easily manipting horses is daunting and dependable.


    Tiararose was talking to Keith when Aquastead and Elliot arrived.


    "Before we leave... Elliot"


    "Yes, Master Tiararose, a letter from Princess Emerald."


    "Really!? I''m d you answered."


    Originally, I was nning to adjust the schedule slowly and visit, but I was contacting you by letter to ask you urgently about this incident.


    When Tiararose checked inside, he wrote a pleasant reply saying, "Please, don''t bother."


    "Good, now I can go to the Kingdom of Phdelphia and talk to Princess Emerald."


    "I hope there''s some clue about the Spirit..."


    It seems to be tough on Phdelphia.


    Yes, Tiararose and Aquastead were talking, and Keith joined the conversation with "That''s it."


    "Stay close and I''ll follow Lucia''s magic. It may be difficult to grasp a clear position because it''s not a marine forest, but to some extent you should know."


    "Really!? Thank you, Keith!! That''ll help."


    If we can''t detect Luciarose''s magic in Phdelphia, we need to find another location immediately.


    There is no time to waste for a moment.


    "But you can do Aqua like this, right?


    "Me? I''ve never done such a thing with much consciousness... I see, it''s worth a try."


    It may be difficult to master immediately, but it seems useful to remember itter.


    "Then I''ll tell you when I get to Phdelphia."


    "Thank you."


    Aquastead thanked Keith and he was just ready to leave. Tiararose also hurried to write a reply and have it delivered to Phdelphia first.


    Well, let''s go.


    "Yes"


    Towards Phdelphia, the Tiararoses ran with horses.
