The Protagonists Are Murdered by Me

Dream Island.

Home to the Dawn Fairies, this island does not see much sunlight.

This is because the purple planet Helyawin that covered half the sky also blocked the sun.

So there was only about 3 hours of sunlight during the day.

The remaining 18 hours were the dusky twilight before dawn.

Strangely, although the planet Helyawin blocked the sun, half the light was able to pass through Dream Island, thus, the world was dyed purple all through dawn.

The sky was purple, the clouds were purple, everything was purple.

The purple world is like an illusion, a dream.

That may be why this island is called Dream Island.

It was also a floating island.

But since the fairies have never gone down the island, they have no idea another world exists outside of the island.

Just like a dream, they lived in their own world.

Evening in Dream Forest is about three hours.

But it wasn’t too dark at this hour.

Because the spirits that were hiding below ground came up one by one to brighten this world.

The Dawn Fairies, turning their heads, saw the colorful and beautiful spirits twinkling like fireflies, and because of this, they did not have to worry about getting lost on Dream Island.

Dawn Fairies don’t dream.

Because their life is like a dream.

“Beautiful.”

The second princess of the Dawn Tribe, Marilyn, would always climb to the highest mountain on the east side of Dream Island at sunrise.

It’s because from here she could faintly see the ‘sea’ beneath the island that is said to exist in legends.

A whole world covered in water?

It sounded fantastic just thinking about it.

When other Dawn Fairies were content to just live happily day by day, she felt no happiness towards such life.

Just, the sea.

Looking at it was the only thing that brought Marilyn happiness.

After staring at the sea for a long time, before she knew it, the sun had risen.

This time is when the whole world became blue.

The sky was blue, and the world of water in the distance was also blue.

In this world full of purple, Marilyn loved the color blue.

As she enjoyed the view, she became lost in the moment.

“…!”

The wind began to sway.

Immediately, Marilyn hid under a tree, and the tree moved on its own to cover her body.

The animals that were running around hid in the ground, and the birds and spirits flying in the sky also disappeared.

Hwiiing…!!

Something flew up from beneath the island.

Soon, it glided across Dream Island.

‘Wind Devils!’

Devils suddenly appeared one day in the wind.

They looked similar to Dawn Fairies.

Light skinned with ten fingers and feet.

However, unlike the Dawn Fairies who have pointed ears, purple eyes, and purple hair, they had rounded ears, brown eyes, and brown hair.

Also, the wing-like contraption on their backs were made from wood and paper, a machine that allowed the Wind Devils to fly in the sky.

A very dangerous device that can control the wind.

Such creatures born from nature had dared to control it.

From the Dawn Fairies’ point of view, the existence of such machines is horrible, but the Wind Devils are too powerful for them to do anything about it.

‘Wait, that direction is…!’

Marilyn gasped when she saw the direction the Wind Devils were heading.

Wasn’t that where her tribe lives?

‘No way, a coincidence…?’

The residences of the Dawn Fairies are protected by nature, thus, it’s not easily found by the eyes of the Wind Devils.

Because it can look like an ordinary tree, river, or rock.

But now.

Aren’t the Wind Devils confidently flying as if they knew where they’re going?

‘I have to tell the tribe!’

Marilyn hurriedly touched a tree.

All the trees in nature that exist on Dream Island are connected by a single root, enabling communication anywhere.

So the Dawn Fairies uses it to contact one another from far away.

It’s already been five years since the Wind Devils began to invade Dream Island.

However, the fairies still haven’t been able to respond to this disaster.

Night came.

It lasts only about three hours each day, but because it’s a time of abundance energy, it’s the perfect time for a ‘ceremony.’

All the Dawn Fairies were gathered at the ‘Twilight Tree,’ which rose high into the sky, as they knelt and prayed.

Twilight Tree.

Passed down from generation to generation, it’s said that the earliest Dawn Fairies that blossomed from their flowers were always given a solution by this tree whenever something perilous happened.

However, for the last 300 years, the Twilight Tree has not answered their calls.

Is it out of energy?

Is it exhausted?

Or, is it because they had wished too much that it has stopped listening.

They don’t know.

But this was the only thing the Dawn Fairies could do.

The devils are too powerful for them to deal with, so as always, they had no choice but to wish.

‘…Too many fairies have died.’

Leading the ceremony as the priestess is the second princess, Marilyn, who was dancing buoyantly near the tree.

It has already been 3 years since the first princess, Arilyn, went into seclusion.

Since then, the second princess has taken on the role of overseeing the Dawn Fairies.

Eueuk…

Heuk…

In the midst of the ceremony, cries burst out from all sides.

She had hurriedly warned that the devils were invading, but it was too late, as many fairies died before they could hide.

How did the devils find their homes?

That one question dominated Marilyn’s mind.

‘Please. Mother, please guide us.’

The three hour long ceremony gradually heightened, as the sound of music from the Dawn Fairies filled the Twilight Tree.

Suddenly, on top of the altar dedicated to the Twilight Tree, a blue light burst out and something appeared.

“…!”

Instantly, there was silence.

Looking at the altar, all the Dawn Fairies were surprised.

Seeing something with black hair and black eyes appear before them, Marilyn backed away.

“Ah, devil…!”

Rounded ears, the symbol of the devil.

As she backed away with a pale look, she saw something on his chest.

“…Silver Spiritual Flower?”

Then, the man with black eyes also looked up at himself.

No, to be exact, somewhere between the air.

[2…1…0]

[Travel completed.]

[You became a passerby on Dream Island…]

[…Correction.]

[You became Dream Island’s spirit guide.]

I’ve never been treated to the local’s food in another world before.

“It’s our Dawn Fairies’ special dish, ‘Bayahm’s Seven Honey.’”

Sharp ears.

Purple eyes and hair.

Annoyingly beautiful and handsome appearance.

It seems that this is a world of ‘fairies.’

And just because I have the Silver Spiritual Flower and has appeared at a really amazing time, I was treated with extreme care.

Was I lucky?

Or.

‘Did you do something?’

< No way. I don’t have the ability to interfere with the world’s plot. >

Well, I suppose so.

If she is able to interfere, she would have killed the protagonists without needing me in the first place.

< Only…this time, little by little, I felt this world would have a better start. >

‘Is that so.’

I’ve always carefully selected a world according to the Client’s recommendation, but never knew which had a good start.

I thought it would have been similar no matter which world I chose.

‘How nice it would be if this happens every time.’

< …It’s impossible. It was possible this time because I felt a strong ‘connection to the plot.’ >

The connection to the plot is probably the Silver Spiritual Flower I held in my arms.

Evident by these fellows who call themselves Dawn Fairies or Morning Fairies or whatever, as they couldn’t take their eyes off the flowerpot on the table.

“Are you feeling better?”

[Yes…]

“Is there anything else you need?”

[…I also want a drink.]

The flower was coveting the fairies’ wine on the table.

“You’re still wet behind the ears for that.”

[I don’t have ears…]

It seems to be in much better shape now that it’s talking nonsense.

Proof that this is a perfect environment.

I had also asked the fairies to ‘bring me something good for the spirit,’ and they brought me the best soil they had.

In many ways, it was the right choice to come to this world.

By the way…

“…Is this a special dish?”

A big bowl was on my table, and inside is a watery soup of some kind.

Indeed, this is a special dish.

“That’s right! Mixing a drop of honey that comes from the rocks of Ashil once a year, the green honey from the Santatrom Butterfly, and a spoonful of honey from the Kama Melon….

“Aye. Quiet down, I’ll eat it.”

“Yes!”

When the male fairy in front of me stopped talking, I ate some of the honey, and surprisingly, it’s quite delicious.

“Do you guys always eat this stuff?”

“Of course! We never eat living things. By comparison, the devils are really barbaric. How, how…They cut the animals with a knife, burn them with wood, then eat them…Ugh, just thinking about it is horrible.”

“…”

“Ah, is something wrong?”

“…No. Just. I was suffering from an ethical dilemma.”

The fairies said they would never harm nature.

That’s to say, they don’t even eat salad.

Their diet consisted of only honey.

Strangely enough, their honey seems to contain all the essential nutrients.

Although it’s not a special dish, I think it’ll be fine as a combat ration.

The male fairy left after I ate a moderate amount of the honey.

The honey could fill my stomach, so I emptied the bowl, got up, and approached the window.

As I pushed the wooden partition to open the window, as if moving on its own, it slowly opened.

…Looking at it now, all the buildings that I thought were carved from wood are actually living trees, made to look like buildings.

“Crazy. How is this possible?”

I couldn’t believe the trees changed into the shape of buildings.

When I looked out the window and saw the village, I felt like I was going to fall in love with it, like a dream.

This world was too beautiful.

Beyond comparison to Earth.

A world of purple stretching across the horizon.

Swarms of pink lights swaying closely, an embroidered scene that cannot be found anywhere on Earth.

The Dawn Fairies moved freely through the air and on the trees, which are like their form of Earth’s highways.

To get around, I needed some help from my suit and skills.

It’s fortunate my body is flexible.

Knock knock!

– Can I come in?

“Yes.”

Hearing my reply, the door opened and a woman with purple hair tied in a ponytail came in.

This woman is the princess, Marilyn, who guided me the other day.

Looking at me, she hesitated for a moment, then spoke.

“Mister Guide, do you know why we called you?”

I don’t know.

“I know.”

I pretended to know.

“Yes…As you know, we’re being threatened by ‘Wind Devils.’ Even though we’ve often moved our residence and have hid thanks to nature’s help, the devils keep finding us.”

According to her explanation, they use horrible magic.

When the terrifying roar resounded, she recalls the world bursting into flames, as many died from having their body pierced just by having a stick pointed at them.

“A horrifying magic.”

I don’t have a clue what magic that is either.

Dying from having a stick pointed at you?

I’ve never heard of such magic.

Also, flying in the sky…

But that part wasn’t really important to me.

In the end, this is a ‘story,’ so I just have to follow the river of fate and find the protagonist.

I had looked over every Dawn Fairies, and none had the protagonist hashtag.

That means the protagonist must be one of the ‘devils.’

“Those fellows, do you know where they are now?”

“Ye-yes…North of Dream Island, at ‘Sleeping Giant Rock Valley.’ They’re camped there.”

“Okay. Let’s go”

If there are devils, it’s best to confirm it as soon as possible.

Dawn Fairies uses a huge bird called the White Mane Eagle for travel.

Why the eagles have a mane and is not a lion, I don’t know, but anyways, it’s a fairy world.

After Marilyn sat in front and I sat in the back, the eagle slowly took off.

The current time is 18:30.

It’s supposed to be sunset, but it’s already dawn here.

Flying up into the dreary night sky, the world slowly disappeared.

Then, I only felt the feeling of dreaming.

An indescribable magical world.

Waterfalls fell from the top of dozens of huge rocky cliffs floating in the sky, and between are intertwined vines that stretched around it.

This is not anyone’s work.

Simply, it’s a site created by nature for the Dawn Fairies.

For a long time, we flew in the air and through huge cliffs, and before I knew it, we passed by a purple stream of lights.

“It’s the Spiritual Milky Way. Today is the season’s last twilight.”

“…”

I didn’t say anything.

Or to be exact, I couldn’t.

The eagle flew really quietly.

To avoid the devils finding out.

But Marilyn must have been nervous, as she was breaking out in cold sweats.

Rightfully so.

Just the thought of us heading towards the base of the wind demons who blew up all their homes.

I don’t know how strong the devils are, but escaping will be possible.

Finally, after a couple of hours of flying, traces of the devils’ camp came into view.

It could be assumed by the rising smoke in the distance.

Because fairies don’t use fire.

“…Fire.”

Suddenly, I had a gut feeling.

When we arrived at the devils’ camp, my gut feeling seemed to have hit the mark.

Brown hair and eyes.

Similar appearances to the fairies but rounded ears.

The identity of the devils is as plain as day.

“…Humans?”

Right.

So, the terrible magic the Dawn Fairies speak of turns out to be science.

Anyone could have guessed it, but I didn’t give it much thought.

The genre of this world is not humans being invaded, rather, it’s them invading.

“Hmm…”

Also, the devils, no, humans, had very unique looking hang gliders and gunpowder cannons all over their camp, as well as what appears to be rifles.

Checking them slowly, I lightly smiled.

The firearms they have are much older than my equipment.

“This, isn’t it going to be easier than I thought?”

My discord is Yasi#9824 if you need to contact me for anything.
