"Hmm... I do want to know that if you want to, but it's not the best, is it? If I could, I'd like to put a piece on it by the end of the day."
The girl smiled bitterly at Soma for saying so and returning it.
Because it stayed the same anticipation that it would probably return that way.
But that's why it didn't come down to the words that went on.
"I don't know what Omei is working for, but I think we should stop that for now. For now, if we just interrupt the ritual, we just have to do something about the sacrifice, but that doesn't solve the problem... and I'm not convinced."
"Hmm...? What's that supposed to mean?
I wonder why you're talking about this, naturally.
But this is something I can't help.
I just don't think they'll miss it without talking about anything, and although it's only somehow, I have a feeling they'll spot me where I lied.
That's why this is all we have if we can talk.
Yes, so I have no choice, I try to tell myself and whine in my heart, opening my mouth.
"It's a simple story. Sacrifice doesn't have to be arrogant.... you don't know what the ritual they're about to perform anymore, do you?
"Well, there was roughly an idea… I was convinced by the word 'sacrifice'. I'm more concerned about how you know that?
That may be a natural question, but shrug and flush your shoulders.
I don't have the courtesy to tell you everything.
"So, yes, I do have a problem if I'm gone, but in that case, I'll just look for another sacrifice and prepare it. Besides, if it's not just that, you won't be able to do what you're trying to do this time, so you should need sacrifices on a regular basis. Of course you refuse, but in that case the elves will just perish, and someone will do it instead, won't they? I'm sure it won't change in the end."
"Hmm... I'm not sure, but do you mean you can't just help Felicia for now? Well, maybe I thought so, or if Felicia had to run away, then I didn't think she could have followed you honestly... So what do we do?
I couldn't see you doubting these words from the way you were tilting your neck.
I guess that's why.
What made me ask you extra things?
"... I don't know what to say to myself, but is it insane to try to listen to such a dubious woman?
"Would it be free if we just listened to each other? In fact, it's just a matter of listening to the story before deciding what to do."
"... well, nothing, I don't mind"
I don't know, things have been going crazy since earlier.
In the first place, it's really about why we're talking about this.
Even though I was trying to get rid of what could be a corner disorder, the struggle I've had so far is blistering.
Well, when I say that, right in front of me right now, there's something that's going to be the biggest obstacle.
No... or maybe it's because of that, I think so.
Compared to having this, there would be nothing wrong with it to the extent that it is otherwise alive.
Yes, that's why I keep saying that getting away from this place is the top priority, to fulfill it.
"So, what you do is simple in itself. Because you just have to crush the Forest God. It's just not a good idea, considering later."
"Yeah? Why?
"The elves are unusual in these woods, because it is thanks to the gods of the woods that power can be unleashed."
"Oh, speaking of which, you did. And then... if that's the case, it's gonna be very bad."
"Because they knew it, they sealed the Forest God."
"Hmmm... or in the first place, why was the elf sealing it? You called him a god and you respected him, didn't you? Well, from what I was afraid of, I can somehow imagine."
"I think it's pretty much what you imagined, isn't it?
I called them gods and I revered them because they were empowering us, albeit as a result.
But at the same time, they were eating about themselves.
Yet he continued his distorted coexistence without fleeing from it, because where he fled, he was just squeezed out of another race.
In an effort to do something about it, the elves decided to seal what they even called God.
The chiefs at the time redeemed their lives.
"That's the old ritual, or is it... at all, something that seems a little out of anticipation... But you know that very well, don't you?
"... just how much I've tried to hide, and there's something I can't hide. Except from what I've learned, it makes sense."
Although I could rock the current chief somewhat, it's really to that extent.
And it was also because they were in a hurry.
Speaking of whether it is commensurate with the effort used, it definitely is not.
"Hmm... so what do I do after all?
"It's been made to seal ever since, so for now, I definitely think it'll break out. So I don't think there's going to be a problem if we hold onto it and make it listen. Naturally, I wish I could."
According to the information obtained, Forest God seems to be the type of person who increases in power over time.
That seems to be going on between seals, and if you do poorly, isn't that power actually close to God's power?
In addition to being simply mighty that way, it's probably already on this side of the force.
If that wasn't the Demon King, it would be almost impossible to obey.
"I see... so where is the place?
"... do you really know? You must defeat the Forest God and obey him, right?
"Even if they say, you wouldn't know what would happen if you didn't try in the end? If it is not possible, then it is then. That would be better than dying, and the elves would have to put up with it."
From that appearance as if he were speaking of common sense, he seemed to be saying that it was natural to be able to defeat Forest God and others.
I'm not supposed to be that kind of opponent... no, or maybe he can take it down.
And when I thought about it, that wasn't a problem.
Ideally, the two indeterminate elements, Forest God and Witch, would crush each other, but it was unclear how we could do something about Forest God even if we sacrificed the Witch in the first place.
Then there is no reason to deny that it is only hope that will defeat the Forest God.
If you think of it as the price, isn't it acceptable that the witch is alive?
I thought about that... yes, I convinced myself that I had talked so much about it.
"... you can do whatever you want around there. This way. This way. This way."
"Um, let me do that.... By the way, I thought, can't you defeat the Forest God today?
"It's still sealed for once now, isn't it? Elves can only solve it, so there's nothing you can do."
That's one of the reasons I stopped.
From now on, it is exquisite to confuse them.
I just did that, and it wouldn't mean anything.
"Hmm, is that so... so where is the place?
"I think there's a big tree in this forest, but there's a place connected from the space at the top of it. There's the Elf's chief's house, and there's a path to the place."
I mean, I have to do something about the closed space first... but I never dared say anything about it.
Somehow, because I thought the boy in front of me was going to do it before breakfast to that extent.
"In short, you need to break into the chief's house first, …"
"There's no particular way to infiltrate it, so work yourself in there.... So I'm done teaching you the good things, and now you'll excuse me"
When I said that and tried to walk away from the spot, Soma looked surprised.
It's more about leaning your neck.
"Hmm? Didn't you have something for me?
"Uh..."
Indeed, that was a natural question.
I was following you, so it would be normal to think you had something to do.
I was totally done with my errands already. I was wondering.
After all, I haven't been able to ask why Soma is here... but it would be unnatural to hear that exactly.
Well, I've completely forgotten so far, and it seemed like I'd just have to give up knowing why.
"Well, I did have some errands, but I don't need them anymore, so don't worry about it"
"Is that so? Hmm... well, for now, I'm glad you taught me so much."
"... you don't have to worry about anything. I've been thinking about it."
Rather, there is really no reason to be thankful.
I wonder what I'm doing at all, and when I turn around thinking about that.
The girl was to follow the scene early.
"... Mm. Speaking of which, I forgot to ask your name."
As I dropped off about the girl who had left, I remember that, but by then I had already lost sight of the girl.
But when you breathe out one sigh, Soma gives it up first.
"... we shall meet again in time"
It was a hunch.
That, too, is close to certainty.
After all, I had nothing to say, but I'm pretty sure that girl had something to do with Soma.
I only gave Soma information about what I was going to leave... well, there's probably no such thing as lying information, let me try to make use of it thankfully.
Whatever comes later, that's when.
What needs to be done now is nothing.
"Well, was it the biggest tree..."
That was one of the places where Soma had his eyes on.
It was also the most powerful place because it was particularly big to feel.
I mean, there's a good chance he was on his way without being taught anything, but if he knew that, he would have handled it differently again.
It would have made more sense than enough.
"Though..."
I don't take for granted how to break in successfully, etc.
I'm confident if I just need to make a raid, and I'm confident when it comes to finding it, but I'm not sure I can sneak into it with hatred.
If I had to, I wouldn't just storm from the front.
"Hmmm... well, time is ready, think about it a little bit"
There's no more information to collect, and all the elves are in the house in the first place.
If I had more work to do, would I try to go to the place where it was intended again?
"It doesn't mean there's anything there..."
Well, or you might actually come up with something by looking at it.
With that in mind, Soma started moving.
That's the countless trees that exist in the Elf Forest, but I still remembered that clearly because I had stares on them, but they were simply plain to understand.
It was big enough to tell at a glance that it was different from the rest… above all, it was just in what seemed to be the middle of the woods where it stood.
There's no way I can forget that.
That's how I got to the heart of the woods, and I knew that at a glance.
The beauty is clearly visible to the eye even if it is not close, but I feel even more overwhelming if I approach it.
When it comes to forests, the most familiar part of Soma is the Demon Forest, but it's overwhelming compared to any tree there was.
The more I look up, the more my neck hurts, and the thickness is that I can finally get around with a few adults holding hands.
It was a truly large and magnificent tree.
It's going to be tough if you fall in the middle of the ascent, but there are plenty of places that are just big and likely to be put on your feet.
If you're just going up there for now, it doesn't seem like an obstacle.
"The problem is the way to infiltrate…"
Or if you think about it, the only way for Soma to get ahead of the space being connected is to slash it with a sword, but wouldn't he find out at that point?
There is no other way... to get other elves to cooperate would be without.
"Hmmm... I guess I'll just have to say that I can be now"
In the first place, I was even wondering if I didn't need to sneak off to anything.
I am convinced by the word 'sacrifice' used by the girl earlier as to what the ritual that will take place tomorrow is.
That girl said something to affirm that, too, and I guess that's what I mean.
We're going to smash it up, grab Felicia, and even defeat something called Forest God, so I guess I can't help but worry about the details anymore.
Well, of course, I'd rather stay out of the way, and I don't want to do any extra damage.
"Well, it's also a small matter before it matters. There will be no choice but to some extent"
Thinking about it, I decided to reopen it already.
Whatever, it's all tomorrow.
I don't know what will happen... but what Soma can do is one thing.
Whatever comes, slash away, slash open.
That was it, and Soma narrowed her eyes so that she could stare into the space at the end of her gaze.
"Hmm... I do want to know that if you want to, but it's not the best, is it? If I could, I'd like to put a piece on it by the end of the day."
The girl smiled bitterly at Soma for saying so and returning it.
