How many hours has it been since I left? Soon the ground became invisible as if it had been fogged. And the branches were stretching straight to the side as if waiting for us when we felt tired. If you look at it from the bottom, it's already a roof. If you don't turn around to the side, you can get out on top. That's unexpected effort. I don't have the skill or strength to climb just where I'm overhanging.
"Alec, should I take a break when I get out on that one?
"I like that. Something that my arms are getting pretty tired of.
Neither do I. When amateurs like us climb, they get tired of all their hands. You think we should use our feet effectively if we are supposed to? Barefoot is hard.
All right, I'm finally out on the first branch. Don't rest now.
"That's amazing. It's like a school garden even though it's a branch. I think I could live there if I wanted to.
"Pretty wide, isn't it? I don't think it's on a tree. Uh, I'm tired. Let's get some rest.
Sleeping me. I wonder what time it is. The sun is invisible but bright. And I feel tired but not drowsy. I feel weird.
Alec pillows my arm lying on a large letter. The scent of my hair is fluffy. It smells so good even though there is no shampoo or rinse.
Um, I want to stay asleep, but I'm not sleepy at all. I'll just have to lay back until I get tired.
Then again, when I climb, I rest with branches, and when I climb, I repeat my rest. My body is tired but my drowsiness doesn't strike me at all. Even time is strange. It's supposed to be dozens of hours since morning, but the brightness hasn't changed at all. What the hell is going on?
"Curse... you're scaring me here..."
"Yeah... you don't know what that means..."
I've been in this place for years... No, the village chief said he found out after coming down from what had been twenty years. Are you in Taro Urashima state? You can't just not go back to Kutanutsu for twenty years. I worry too much about everyone. I have to be home at least in five years.
Rest and you'll get tired. But I can't sleep, so I can't get any mental fatigue. Is this Igdrasil's trial...
And now I'm starting to wonder what Grandma Dark Elf was saying. When I climbed up, there was a young man who wouldn't come back.
That's crazy.
This place is a tree, so if it falls down, it should stay about a corpse. And what the hell is wrong with you not coming back? I'm sure Grandma never tired of telling me to climb... I have no idea but my ancestor's advice is valuable. You should climb the tunnel so that your spirit doesn't get involved while you talk to Alec.
Damn...
I'm going crazy because I don't know too much about the feeling of time.
"Alec... how many days do you think it's been...?
"Come on......"
"Puypuy."
"Gaugau"
Ko doesn't care, but Kamui says he's tired of it already. Morning. And Alec's attitude is strange. It's not as elegant as you'd normally imagine. It's like dealing with those numb guys over there. This is a dangerous situation... What do we do...
I wish I had something to play with, but I couldn't even bring it in except for the sacred coat. I have no choice but to climb completely alone. There you go, Dr. Fernando. There's not even someone to talk to. It should be total loneliness. But Doctor's always traveling alone, so are you okay?
In the meantime, we get to the next branch, so we take a break. We have to do something about Alec.
"Alec, sleep here.
Take off my holy coat and lay it down. It appears to be the ground below, but in fact it is a branch of a tree whose surface has gotten bitter.
"I'm not in the mood right now..."
Ugh, Alec is cold...... and misunderstanding.
"Fine, go to sleep on your back.
Let's be strong here. I'm sure you understand...
"What are you... ah..."
"You're tired, aren't you? I can't sleep, I don't have a sense of time. You're going crazy, aren't you? But I'm fine. Because I'm with Alec, and there's Ko and Kamui.
Body fatigue surely affects the mind. So at least, it's a massage. I guess a little bit different. Rub your arms, shoulders slowly. Pressure on the back and hips, gently tapping and rubbing the legs.
"Ah... Curse..."
"You're tired, aren't you? Let's take it slow for a while. Come on, close your eyes. I can't sleep, but I'll calm down a little.
"Yeah......"
Whoa, you relaxed. Momomi.
