I don’t think it’s possible unless you read a book about how the town was built, or hear stories from people who lived in that era.
Although, only the long-lived races, such as Kagali and Mumroot-san, can do that.
…Could it be, Mumroot-san? You haven’t come this far, have you?
After all, he is someone who has been to the Land of Harmony and even to Dezerto city. It doesn’t seem impossible. It’s scary to think about it.
“So what’s with the knight armor?” (Kagali)
Since Mia and Carol don’t seem to know anything about this town, I decided to ask them about those knight armor.
“If you come close to it, it will attack you.” (Mia)
Mia speaks with annoyance.
“But that one doesn’t move, does it?” (Yuna)
I pointed my bear puppet at a nearby knight armor.
In fact, there was another one nearby, but it didn’t move when I approached it.
“It seems that some move and some don’t.” (Carol)
“Perhaps it’s been broken over time?” (Mia)
Mia said appropriately to Carol’s words.
If that were the case, it might be more impressive that the town has been in ruins for so long that it is moving in the opposite direction, even if only partially.*
“But I was able to examine that motionless knight armor, so I learned some of its structure.” (Carol)
“That’s why you knew that the position of the magic stone was different.” (Yuna)
“Carol knows a thing or two about it.” (Mia)
For some reason, Mia proudly puffs out her chest.
However, even if she sticks out her chest, it’s not that big, so it feels like sarcasm.
“But you’re doing something dangerous. What are you going to do if it moves?” (Kagali)
“I’ll run away. It seems that its pursuit range is fixed, so if I run away from a certain distance, it will stop chasing me.” (Carol)
“Then, you were actually fine without my help?” (Yuna)
“That’s right. We didn’t need any help. We could have just run away.” (Mia)
“Mia-chan!” (Carol)
Mia’s tsundere mode was activated, but Carol got mad at her.
“I’m just kidding.” (Mia)
Tsunderes are cute only in manga and anime, but when you meet one of them in real life, they’re just plain annoying. Is it because you can’t read or see their internal monologue?
If Mia has internal dialogue, it must be something like “I really want to thank them honestly, but why can’t I be honest?”, or so…
“Yuna, was it? What are you staring at?” (Mia)
As I was staring at Mia, she felt my gaze on her.
“No, I was just thinking how amazing these cute girls were venturers.” (Yuna)
“I-Is that so? I’m embarrassed when you say that we’re cute.” (Mia)
Mia looks really embarrassed and makes a shy gesture.
Tsundere and easy.
“But you three are as cute as well. Especially you.” (Mia)
Mia pointed at me.
“I’ve never seen a cute bear like that before.” (Mia)
Does that mean that the bear costume on the outside is cute, but not the one inside it?
Well, I already knew that.
“But once you get to a certain distance, it just stops chasing you?” (Kagali)
“It seems that the range of activity is fixed, and when it reaches a certain distance, it will return to its original position.” (Carol)
Does that mean that each of them has an area to protect?
“Fufu, that knight armor is suspicious.” (Kagali)
Kagari-san, who was listening to the conversation, muttered.
“Kagali-oneechan, what’s suspicious about it?” (Fina)
“Fina. Think about it. Was there any knight armor upstairs?” (Kagali)
Fina shakes her head sideways.
“No, there wasn’t.” (Fina)
“Right? And there was no treasure. In other words, there’s nothing to protect.” (Kagali)
