We were to go first to the village of the winged ones - Mr. Biller and his people.
After arriving at the village, we will go to the god that Biller and the others are talking about. The griffons who would accompany me to the village this time were Rilha and Kamiha, a married couple. I wondered if it would be all right for both of them to leave the village without their daughter Rumiha, but Rumiha herself told me, "Gurururururu (I can be fine on my own).
Everyone is worried about me.
I smiled at them and said, "Don't worry.
I was going to go to the God of Mr. Biller and others, but they were not my enemies. I don't know what they are thinking, but they are not the same as the plant demons that we defeated before, and we don't have to defeat them.
I wonder if I will be able to act when the winged ones become the ones who must be defeated. I don't have that kind of premonition, so I think I'll be fine, but I do have those thoughts from time to time.
Besides Lilja and Kamiha, there will be other beastmen including Oshasio, Gaius, and a few young elves from the Elves who will go with them. As for the ethnic people, they are not coming because there is a possibility that the ethnic people will not be able to control them if Fito goes, and also because Fito was reluctant to take people from other ethnic groups with him.
Including myself, there were seven of us plus two griffons. The winged men who came to pick us up as our guides.
Lan and the others wanted me to take more people with me, but the number of people who had gone out to explore had not returned yet, so even this number was just barely enough.
It was difficult to take this many people to the village by flight, and they had to walk almost to the top of the mountain. It is said that only those with wings can shorten the time it takes to get to the village by repeated flights. It is easy to get down, but difficult to get up. Although they can come and go, they care about me more than I think they do, considering that they even went to the trouble of traveling such a distance back and forth to the village because they care about me.
Why does God to them want to see me?
And does that lead to why they feel they cannot leave me alone?
With these thoughts in mind, I continued on my way.
I am able to move my feet even though I feel tired because I am moving my body and using magic to strengthen my physical abilities more than in the past.
This was my first experience of climbing a mountain, so it was a new experience for me. The mountain path is easy to follow, but it is well prepared. We are walking on the path.
The magic flows well in this mountain.
Is it?
Yes, it is. I like this mountain. But I don't think it's all natural.
The villagers don't seem to have as good an ear as the beasts, and they don't seem to hear me whispering a little in the background.
I think the magic of this mountain has a very clean flow to begin with. ...... It is too beautiful for that. See, those plant demons were probably disrupting the magic in that area. Maybe something is doing the opposite of that."
Frene said and looked at the other spirits on the elf's shoulder. Those spirits are also listening to us and are making nodding gestures.
Can the spirits feel that kind of thing? It is a little difficult for me to understand that. I think it is the spirits who are good at feeling the flow of magic in nature.
But still, that plant demon was disrupting the magical power and making it impossible for the spirit tree to grow in that place.
On the other hand, something in this place is regulating the magical power of the area nicely.
I hope that something is not the enemy. It is more difficult to adjust the magic than to disturb it. I think it is possible to disturb the magic of the land if you have enough magic and time to disturb the magic of the land. I think I can do it, too, if I take the time. But I can't arrange it in such a beautiful way."
Frene continued.
The most important thing to remember is that the magic of nature is not something that can be interfered with for a moment, but it is very difficult to do for a long time. Considering that, I don't want to make an enemy of something that is regulating this magic."
Interference with the magic of nature. It is so much more than a genie can do. It is easy to disturb it, but difficult to regulate it, he said. I don't want to make an enemy of someone who is doing that, Freneh assured us.
Is it God, as Biller said? Or is it something more, ......?
We don't know exactly at the moment, but we hope that something is not bad for us. That's what I thought.
