The next day.

Reno ultimately manages to master manipulation magic first.
Though, Sui managed to follow her without wasting much time.

Right now, they’re practicing to make the distance they move objects, more accurate.
This part can only be handled by the right “mood”, so repetitive practice was their only work now.

Aria was working on her standby state as always, and Kili had just learned [Soil Creation] magic and was practicing with that.

Recently, even Milia was properly training her magic.
She had the light attribute, so she was practicing the [Illuminate] spell.
She was pleased with being able to read books on magic till very late.

Even so, I’m troubled when she says I should have taught her it earlier.
You’re the one who was unwilling to practice, you know.

In any case, everyone was diligently practicing with their magic.
If there was a time to leave for a bit, it was now.

“Aria, sorry but could you look over everyone for me?”
“? Sure, but what are you going to do?”
“It’s been about a week since the last attack, so I’ll go and check out the Demon Forest.”
“Wha-!? Aah!”
“[Water ball].”

Aria stood up with a rattling noise, and knocked over her cup with a lit piece of straw inside.
I used magic in time, so that it doesn’t devolve into a fire.

“Thanks… is not what I wanted to say. What are you thinking going into the Demon Forest? It’s dangerous!”
“Nah. if I were alone, I wouldn’t mind even if there were hundreds of that wolf monster.”
“B-, but…”

She’s probably being dragged down by the memory of the men who dragged monsters into the village and put everyone in danger.

“I will never attract monsters into the village. That’s a promise.”

I look into Aria’s eyes and say that, but Aria looked frightened and doesn’t give me permission.

…It can’t be helped.
Nothing happened today, so I guess it’s fine even if I don’t go.

“Shouldn’t it be fine to let him go?”
“Milia?”
“If it’s Lain, then wouldn’t he be able defeat any monster that comes out?”
“…’Any’ is a big claim.”

As I say that, Aria sighs as if giving up.

“You can go to the forest. However, I have a condition.”
“Condition?”
“Take me with you.”

I stopped thinking for a moment, hearing her demand.

***

“I-, is it really alright?”
“Yeah. There are no monsters nearby.”

After that, with me in agony, Aria decided to come along for inspection.
If that wasn’t enough, Reno also wanted to join us and seeing her, Sui decided to ride the wave as well.

Of course, we rejected both of them and it was decided that Aria and I would go to the Demon Forest.
However, ever since we entered, Aria hasn’t stopped clinging to my left arm.

Well, her unexpectedly big chest armor feels nice, so I guess it works well for me, but that’s all I got to know since we entered the forest.
It seems that there are no monsters, and it was unlikely that we’d be attacked.

“By the way, why did you decide to come along? If you were scared, you should have stayed home.”
“B-because if I don’t confirm the state of the forest now, I won’t know what to do next spring.”
“Aah~”

That reminded me, she was the village head of this pioneering village.
She seems to be thinking about what they’ll do in spring, by observing the state of the forest.

“Village head-sama has a lot to do.”
“That’s right. Though if I were a man, I would have a lot more flexibility…”
“Aah, you mean that law where you can’t own land unless you’re a man.”

I heard that only men could own land in this country.
In return only men could get drafted, so it was quite a male-dominated society.

Well, the Holy Euphoresirolium People’s Holy Kingdom was also a country where men dominated, so this may be normal in these parts.

“Yeah. That’s why it really helps that Lain moved in with us. We can make it look like Lain owns all the land, at least on paper.”
“…That remind me, but shouldn’t I be registered as a citizen for all that? I haven’t seen evidence of you sending out a letter for that or anything.”
“……Ah.”

Aria lets out a strange voice and stops.
With my arm grabbed, I also stopped along with her.

Did you seriously forget?
