A large road stretches straight from the village entrance to the central Shinto tree. The path from other places also leads to the Divine Tree, and you can see just how important the Divine Tree is in the village.

Walk toward the Divine Tree, starting with Miel.

Then, the people who saw Miel - the fairy slipped to the side to clear the way. It's easier to walk, but I get confused by a heterogeneous welcome.

Somehow, you're not very welcome?

“That's not true. In other words, Atai was the one being avoided. Even so, I hold an important position in my hometown."

I thought I was a soldier because I was a doorman. However, the reaction of the surrounding people seemed to be that of a common people welcoming the nobility and royalty.

At least it's not a good person to be mild.

"You don't have to worry about it. It's just that I was chosen because I'm strong."

I see.

After a while, the Divine Tree was so close to my eyes.

However, Miel's destination is not the Divine Tree. It was a cabin just below the god tree.

"Excuse me, it's Miel."

"Oh! It's not time to go back, but you did..."

“Yes, we have the Saviors with us.”

"Come in."

Miel knocked on the door of the cabin and heard the old woman's voice twisting inside.

When the old woman inside the cabin gave her permission, Miel opened the door without making a fool of herself. Inside the hut, an old woman with wrinkles on her face and hands sat kneeling on a wooden floor. It looked like an old woman, but her eyes were full of vitality.

Is that a fairy?

Iris, who was there, muttered in a small voice.

Every fairy I saw in Fairyland was a beautiful young woman. I was almost confused by the appearance of the old woman, but the magic power of the old woman in front of me was definitely from the fairy.

"My name is Aruba and I am an elder in my hometown." Please have a seat. "

Everyone is urged to sit on the floor.

Looking at the timing... a fairy, a young girl, served me tea fried in the leaves, but soon disappeared into the depths.

“First of all, I want to thank you for getting to a place like this.”

"For now, it would be helpful if you could tell me what kind of situation it is..."

Didn't Miel tell you anything?

The old woman turned her sharp gaze towards Miel.

"After all, Obaba only told me to 'bring them in', so it would be quicker for Obaba to explain."

“It's rare for me to come in and tell you about something I haven't explained. You have to thank them first.”

"But, Obaba-sama..."

"First of all, change the call." We have guests, so we shouldn't call them "Obaba-sama," but "Alba-sama."

Yes, Master Aruba.

Sure.

Guests, if Miel's words are correct, were preached in front of someone called the "Savior", and it was unchaste.

“Can you tell me what you want me to ask for so much from the inner circle?”

“When did you ask for it?

"Or maybe you've done such a troublesome thing because there's something 'I want to ask you'?"

The trouble is this disturbance itself.

Unusual when someone comes out from beyond the dimensional distortion in the first place. I should have expected that the "ruins" would not be on the other side.

“People in the original space predicted that the dimensional distortions that appeared in the plains were accidental.”

That's the ruins. Although it has been studied for hundreds of years, it has not yet been found out how it connects with another dimension, and why it is accidentally connected.

That's why, in the face of the distortion of the path dimension, many people mistook it for something connected to the "ruins". However, it was actually connected to the "fairy town".

It's the intent that connects the fairy township to the other side, isn't it?

Is there any basis for this?

Summon Magic

……

When my wizard went through the dimensional distortion, I felt a sign similar to Summon Magic .

It was Melissa who noticed. However, I could only find traces of power imitating Summon Magic in a few moments, even if I said it was similar.

That distortion was meant to call someone, wasn't it?

"Yes, sir."

Aruba drinks tea to calm her down.

"It's not magic..."

"Oh, I gave my wish to the tree."

When in a dilemma, praying fulfills the fairy's wish.

I did not know how it could be realized, but by praying for salvation, I created a dimensional distortion that connected with the other world.

The fairy decided that someone who could help her with that dimensional distortion was the street gate.

"Is that why we're the Saviors?"

"That's right."

There is no clear reason to be a Messiah. It was just what the fairy wanted.

You know what an adventurer is.

"Visitors to various places upon request"

If anyone is looking for monster materials or medicinal herbs, they must accept the request and go to a dangerous place.

In that sense, Aruba is not mistaken.

You fairies have a wish we want you to make.

Yeah.

Then you know what to do with an adventurer.

"What...! The Saviors are asking for a price!?"

Miel stands up because she didn't like what I said.

As a fairy, she asked for a savior who would help herself for free. You are never the person who seeks the price for your help.

"Don't take the sweet idea of getting help without consideration." You asked for help because we couldn't do anything on our own. "

"That's right, but..."

Of course I'll have it ready for you.

Aruba takes the box from the shelf in the back of the room and places it in front of us.

Huh?

What was inside was the fruit.

Those who didn't know what it was were looking at it like they were mistaken for fruit. But we've already seen the real thing.

The fruit of the god tree.

I have also obtained it from the tree of God in the midst of the Elves before.

Divine trees may produce fruits that store vast amounts of energy, but only once in a hundred years.

Even if it took a long time, I had several lifetime opportunities to see long-lived elves and fairies. And Aruba in front of her is living a time worthy of appearance. It wouldn't be strange to have the fruit of a god tree.

I am very grateful for the fruit of the god tree. After all, even with the power of the labyrinth, the fruit of the god tree was a difficult substitute to cultivate.

"Of course, there's more than one. Now I only have this on hand, but I'll give up the 50 that my concubine has collected over her lifetime."

"Fifty...!"

I don't want to imagine how much time it took to gather that many.

Is that okay?

"It is a precious thing. However, for the concubine, the hometown is more important than the fruit of the god tree. At this rate, the homeland that is more important to my concubine than her life will be destroyed."

You can see it straight with eyes with a strong will that you can't imagine from an old body with wrinkles.

At the same time, I felt the signs that were being seen from the left and right sides. They are my family, and I am in charge of their decisions.

When it comes to investigating the ruins, you can just report that the other side of the dimension was Fairyland. But I didn't want to ignore the problems that Fairyland had. There is no reason to refuse, even if the compensation is offered.

“Very well, I will take care of the request.”

“I appreciate that. I'll let Miel walk you through the hometown and explain the details. It's going to be dark soon, so it's just perfect."
