Everyone knows that the Elves are generous. In fact, there was no one who wanted to fight simply because he was inexorably involved in the Man-Man Wars.

Even the corner of this world. I didn't mind if I could just live in peace. I don't like fighting. I don't want to bully others. Just a quiet day. That was their only wish.

Thus, the Elves decided to create a strong bond at the end of the Man-Man War. We cannot allow our peace to collapse any longer. Many of our compatriots died in the Human Demon Wars. With the commandment, they decided to go to the poles. There was no one to contest.

This is how the village of Elves was created today. Though they were within the so-called dusk hazard zone, as humans define it, their boundaries were perfect. No one in this world can reveal its secrecy. There is no doubt that it is a species of magic, but this union was created by one of the most capable women in the elves of the time. It would never be broken... I thought so.

Ariel, it's time for dinner ~

"Yes."

Alice was called by her mother, and ran with her to the front door. I was pulling out the weeds in front of the house now.

More than 100 years had passed since then, and the woman's abilities had not been passed on to her daughter. But her grandson, Ariel, inherited her talent. It was a sort of secular inheritance, but it didn't matter to the person. I have a chance to use magic, but I don't really need talent.

When it comes to large-scale magic or aggressive magic, talent comes into play, but you don't need it. Because this juncture is perfect. Elves who lived in peace no longer needed special magic.

Here you go!

I eat with my family. Father, mother, Ariel and her sister. He was a very close family member. I don't do anything unsatisfied. Alice has always liked this family. Everyone is kind and always laughing. Such daily routines seemed to last forever.

But she knows. The world is a weak predator, and the weak have to be ravaged by the strong...

"Enemy!!

"The boundary has been broken!!

I heard such a voice just in the middle of the night. And Ariel heard the voice, and immediately went out.

- Breaking boundaries? Is that possible?

With that in mind, she saw her go out. It came to this village with Zorosolo... a swarm of Scorpions. And from the back, an even bigger, ten-meter, superior individual comes forward.

"Hmm... elves. I didn't know you were hiding here...."

I was surprised what she said, but more than that she was trembling. It's a monster. It's Scorpion. Its existence is well known. It is a monster that often appears in this area, but it is full of appetite and the elves have been quite sacrificed. That means it came to this village...

Her dazed arrows, the village elves, immediately attacked. It's not impossible. A sudden enemy attack. If you attack, you must be the first to win.

"... hi!

Magic didn't work. When I heard a sound like playing right in front of the giant Scorpion, the magic sprayed. At the same time, its enormous tail relentlessly penetrated the body of a magical elf. My stomach was chopped, penetrated and lifted into the sky... and I was preyed on all at once from my head.

The sound of chewing bones called babies, babies, babies. And the sound of chewing off the meat, chatter, chatter. And there's no limit to the bleeding from your mouth. Seeing such an unrealistic sight, the elf here understood. I can't beat this monster...

"Hmm. Elves are delicious, too. Well, is there anything else coming?

--At the end of that voice, our elves chose to surrender.

"You can stay. I see you have a magical talent. Keep the boundaries of this village together. I guess so. I'll take the rest with me."

It's called sorting, and hell has begun.

The ancient scorpion Fusion Corpion was rational. This raid was not to ravage anything at once and prey on it. Its purpose is the regular supply of food. Elves are delicious and for them they are nothing more than luxury ingredients. That's why I was thinking of making this village the place to cultivate it. They chose this place as a place to produce luxury foods because they could cover themselves by eating as many other monsters as they could.

An elf that is no longer a domestic animal. There was no more dignity there.

Then the village stuff was collected in one place, and what was left behind and what was taken away began to be sorted. The criterion to be left was that there was something magically good left to do, otherwise it would be taken back to their nest as food.

What is good at magic is more delicious than anything else. And there's still magic left to keep this village alive. But what you can't magically do, or what you're not good at, is worthless. They don't age, so just eat them now. By that criterion, Ariel stayed in the village alone with his family.

Ariel!

"Alice!!

"Oneechan!!

A family wrapped around the tail of Scorpion and taken away. I was desperately asking for help, but there was nothing Ariel could do. The Curse of Absolute Obedience has already been engraved. All she could do was see her desperate family.

Tears do not stop overflowing. She kept crying so much that her body might be overflowing with water.

--Why, why, how did this happen... why, why is it that I'm the only one in the village? Why...

I cannot help but curse this fate. To be honest, there is a relieved part. Because being taken means dying. However, they were chosen by families other than themselves, as well as by Ariel's friends and caregivers.

"U... uuuuuuu... uuuuuu... ahh..."

I can't stop swallowing. I couldn't see well in front of my eyes because of tears. She just stood there stunned and waited for the last of her family.

But in the next moment, I wonder if it was because of being too much that Ariel's sister's head was pierced by the tail of Scorpion. I thought there was a noise, and there was her sister's head, which was alive until now, at the end of her tail. One body feels as if the thread has been cut. The bleeding never stops. The overflowing blood was telling the truth about this harsh situation.

"Ahhhh... ahhhhhh... ahhhhh..."

The screams didn't go up. I just... already... despaired of everything. Alice's heart was about to collapse when her beloved sister died like that. When she fell down to collapse on the spot, she kept crying until the tears withered as she stared at the ground so as not to look directly at her family....

After that, her mission was to maintain the boundaries. Occasionally, village elves were taken away. Everyone was living their lives in horror as they were startled that it might be their turn next. Some committed suicide. Among them, Ariel was afraid to die on his own, but he lived in fear.

I'm afraid to die. But I'm afraid I'll live forever. In that contradiction, Alice lived in the village, pushing her emotions to kill.

And I still dream about it sometimes. The end of my sister. Every time it refreshes into the brain, it repeats vomiting and tears do not stop. It was not uncommon for blood to be mixed because of repeated swallowing.

--I really want to die already...

When she really started thinking about suicide, she just came. The humans are in this village.

And Ariel was to meet Julia.
