"- Well, that's why they call it the Devil's Forest."

In a vain large room, Camilla's voice was echoing.

Soma is snorting, hmm, as she hears it.

It's my room, and only two of us are here.

Camilla was in her first class as a tutor.

In time, it was about two hours later after I made my rendezvous with Camilla in the woods - and I reunited with Aina.

It doesn't mean I was doing anything.

After that, Aina and I broke up quickly and came back, but that's all Camilla needed to get ready for.

Well, I didn't decide on a specific time in the first place, and given that I'm in a position to be taught, I have no complaints about Soma.

As for the rest of the time, there was still no problem, as Soma remained given as a challenge while he was unable to move with muscle aches.

Whatever it was, it was a class that started… it would be rude if I said it was unexpected, but surprisingly easy to understand.

I had just made arrangements a while ago, and he also said he was inherently a militant or something, but if you think about it, her profession in the first place is a skill appraiser.

I don't even think I could do it just as quickly if I were really a brain muscle, or quite possibly you were good at backwards with your own perception.

gossip.

"Hmm...... I see"

If we bring thought back to the present, naturally it is the story we have just heard that occupies it.

In other words, we're talking about why the forest at the end of the backyard is called the Devil's Forest.

"It falls within the boundaries of the Devil's kingdom, therefore, the Devil's Forest..."

"There used to be demons wandering around, and that went hand in hand, but I haven't seen them on a ten-year basis in the last few years."

"Hmm... by the way, do you know why?

"Hmm? Well, maybe."

"Mind if I ask?

"There's nothing wrong with that, but it's easy, okay?

That's what Camilla said, it was certainly an easy thing to do.

I guess I gave up breaking in from there because I got messed up scattered, you know.

Well, if that's the case, then it's a compelling reason.

If I say it at last, there is one thing I have learned by it.

"I see...... is that why my house has such a big stupid mansion for nothing"

"Ho...? You mean?

"The size of the house is a great way to show the height of your personality. And the fact that the demonic realm is right there means that it's a border. It depends on whether or not you have the character of a house that has a mansion near the border."

Soma still doesn't know what position his house belongs to.

But if you listen to this kind of talk, you'll understand it to some degree with nature.

"Uncle Borderline... I don't know if we're going to... well, it would mean that we're a house around here"

Then there is often a lot to be convinced of.

Dealing with Soma after not remembering his skills at all and finding out he doesn't is one of them.

Well, technically, I thought it was pretty much the case from around there, so it was a reinforcement to that judgment.

"Ho...?

And to see Camilla narrow her eyes for fun, she's still exactly close.

"I don't think we've talked about those noble classes yet... but how did we get there? You're really interesting..."

I can't give it back because it's previous life knowledge, etc., so I shrug my shoulders back.

Besides, even without previous life's knowledge, it would have been possible to speculate to some extent.

Soma had taught various kinds of knowledge from pre-Camilla tutors, but none of those kinds of things were taught at all.

At that point, it is reasonable to assume that there was some intention to block the information.

From there to here, it's another story.

"Well, anyway... but there's one thing I'm not sure about."

"Hmm...... what's that?

"I don't know what it means to have a mansion so close to the border."

There will certainly be advantages, but no matter what you think, the drawbacks far outweigh them.

Especially at the most dangerous point.

If someone were to instruct me, I would only feel malicious there.

"Oh, that's it, but they were supposed to build this mansion farther away, not here, right?

"Hmm... well, naturally."

"But then they decided to forcibly build it here because the Demons were going to be slow to respond when they raided."

"... who is?

"Your parents."

"............... Are our parents stupid?

"There's nothing in particular to deny."

I wanted to hold my head, but I was so confident, does that mean?

No......?

"Doesn't seeing the Demons on a ten-year basis mean they're just overconfident,...?

"No, I'm sure it's stupid, but I'm also sure that's not overconfidence. They're the ones who messed up the demons."

"... it was over ten years ago, wasn't it?

"So it wasn't Dade who was allowed to set up a mansion like this."

"Hum..."

I also feel that Soma would have had that degree of confidence at the height of his previous life, but I can't say anything because I don't know how strong the Demons are in the first place.

There would be just too few samples to consider.

I thought...

"Well, that's it. Then you don't know how much it is, so let's just say we talk a little bit about the Demons from here on out"

"Oh, I knew it would come."

"What, after all, have you figured that out yet?

"Well, if you only listened to me this much, you'd know. What kind of flow will the teacher be talking about?"

Well, it's a simple story for you.

As Soma now thinks, Camilla is bound to be there when she talks about something she doesn't know much about Soma.

Speaking of which, it's about the Demons.

That way, I would be concerned about nature and the matter, and Camilla would then talk about it.

If we continue to do that well, we will be able to listen with much interest to the story.

And the more I try to understand the story I'm interested in, the easier it is to understand.

Surprisingly easy to understand was that.

"It would be too much if we could just talk for an hour."

"That's how well the teacher carried the story."

"I think you have a lot of understanding."

By the way, the first story that was told was about this very country where the Somas live.

In fact, it was one of the pieces of information that was blocked.

So until then, Soma didn't even know where this country was.

I knew that there was an empire in the middle of the continent, the oldest and most prosperous, but from that point of view it was the first time today that we knew that there existed this kingdom where we lived in the northwest.

There are, of course, small countries surrounded by rugged mountain ranges, and there are essentially only two paths out there.

Well, that leads to the story that one of them is the Devil's Forest there - etc.

Whatever.

"Well, let's just say we talk about the Demons... how well do you know about the Demons, by the way? Doesn't mean I don't know anything about it."

"Hmm, I know a little bit about it... but I think maybe I don't know much about it either."

"By the way, what do you mean you know?

"It is so… a hostile race to mankind as a whole."

As much as this, well, it's like even normal kids know.

It is also used in children's threatening complaints that if they do something wrong, the demons will take them away.

"I see... you sure don't seem the same. By the way, is that a lie?

"Oh, is it still..."

Camilla seemed surprised, conversely, when Soma nodded honestly at what she had been told.

He opens his eyes gently and says, "Why are you snorting?"

"Again, what... you knew?

"If there really is such a thing, it would try to destroy it first. It's impossible not to even try to attack there because you haven't seen him for more than a decade. And then, well, it's a real experience."

"Hands-on experience?"

"Don't worry too much about it."

"Hmm... you're right for now. I don't want to attack you for once because there's no reason to positively hold an extra spark, so that's what's happening... I guess you can't say that if your opponent is really an adversary to all humanity.... and then I ask, what do you actually think you are, the Demon Clan?

"Well... well, descendants of those who for some reason have been forced to antagonize humanity. In addition, the protruding troublemakers, the haters, the kind of community that these people came together in, and so on."

It was something I had been thinking about, so I could even say it, but what was pointed at me from Camilla was a frightened gaze.

"Mm, what is it?

"No, I just thought I'd come to understand you."

I tilt my neck without knowing what it meant, but Camilla just shrugged her shoulders.

Somehow I care, but if you were willing to answer me, you would have answered me right now.

Then I decided not to care that there was no point in hearing any more.

"Well thats the thing...... don't say it in front of the followers of holy god for once, eh? Seems to them that pre-construction is the truth."

"I know."

Sacred theism is the only religion that exists in this world.

Well, technically, they have divisions and subspecies, but you won't have to worry too much about them.

Unless they're believers anyway, they're the ones who can't get involved.

By the way, as you can see from the fact that it is the only one, about 80% of this world is quite small and believable.

Just to be called a believer, it would be better if you had 10%.

The other twenty percent are those who believe in something indigenous to a degree that cannot be called religion, with very few exceptions that would not even be included in the percentage?

Almost no one believes in anything, or anything like that.

Camilla is apparently native, and Soma would be that way too.

Although there are previous life relationships, which would be technically different.

"Well, it's such a demon tribe--"

That's all I said, Camilla accidentally stopped talking.

When I take my pocket watch out of my pocket, I snort.

It is difficult to say that pocket watches are common in this world, but they are arguably the most common substitute within the meaning of watches you carry.

Although the value is a little high when it comes to being widely available.

Camilla seems to make a lot of money around using that stuff normally.

Well, anyway...

"What's wrong?

"No, I thought it was time to take a break."

"Is my life still okay?

"I also take it into account that you're sick for once... you sure still seem okay. Then can we go on?

"I'd rather have it here."

Because of the interesting story, I'm not really tired.

The more I listen, the more I recognize that there are still mountains of things I don't know.

Of course, that includes the story of fate - magic.

But first of all, after listening to this story, Soma listened to the story that was resumed.
