Day 1 of the Toyota Festival.

A ritual to consecrate to God a dance praying for a year of abundance.

Originally, the aspect of ritual becomes stronger, but its use as one of entertainment a long time ago makes it a two-day festival.

The dance takes place before noon on the second day.

Today, the first day, was purely enjoyed as a festival.

There were a number of stalls in Wangdu Square, smelling sweet treats and fragrant food.

"It's delicious!

Noel was smiling when he ate a treat made from a filling that was sold in an outdoor store.

"If you're happy, it's better than that."

"It's been a really long time since I've lived breathlessly as a 'witch'."

Today I was set to enjoy the festival in Noel's hope.

There are also Mishrinas next to her, and Silvia and Melissa are not the only ones who can go into the crowd with three escorts, so me and Illis are accompanying them as escorts.

I've made more maps than that, and so far I can't see anyone making suspicious moves, so I basically have to wait.

We are relaxing and enjoying the festival, too.

"But it's something that's really unnoticed."

"That's the magic tool."

If there was a 'witch' in a place like this, it would make a scene.

So I gave her the glass-shaped magic tool for her when she said she wanted to go play. This has the effect of recognizing the face and making it hard just by hanging it. They gave it to the labyrinth to mass produce it after purchasing only one at a magic tool store in the King's Capital of the Kingdom of Metis. I let the labyrinth produce it because it was more efficient to consume magic than to pay for it.

"Thank you all the way to us"

Ms Mishrina had expressed her gratitude and Mr Claudia had her head bowed.

I gave them the same magic tools so they wouldn't find out it was the 'Virgin'.

We're not wearing glasses because they don't know our faces. It would seem suspicious if as many as seven humans hung glasses, which are just fine items.

"Oh, it looks like he's doing street art."

A park built as a place to relax.

There were several street performers in the wide park performing their arts, who showed interest in the artists who were among the most watched.

"I have no choice..."

Approaching Noel, who rushed over to the crowd.

The most popular performer was juggling with five knives.

I cover my eyes with both hands so that I can't see the girl who was watching the art.

Juggling with a blade can lead to cutting off your fingers if you make a mistake. Such fear cannot be felt from the expression of the performer.

Eventually, the knife, whose juggling was over and flying across the air, was back in the hands of the performer. The girl, who was making it invisible, was also retreating her hand, which was covering her eyes, feeling the signs that the juggling was over.

But the art was not the end.

The performer goes with the six knives he had in his hand in his mouth.

- Barry!

The sound of chewing up the knife echoes.

All six knives were tucked into his mouth, but the performer was flat without looking injured.

So the show seemed to be over. He had decided to pose.

One coin after another goes into the empty bag that was placed in front of the performer.

Was it a satisfactory achievement as sales? The artist disappeared somewhere with bags and business tools. Also, I guess he's going to show off his art somewhere else.

"That was amazing."

"Yeah, there was no sign of magic, and I don't know how."

It was a truly strange art.

It's not hard for me to do the same thing if I can use magic.

But the amazing thing about the performer is that he performed an incredible art in a way that we don't understand without using magic.

So I was excited to let him throw ten silver coins.

"That was amazing."

"Yeah!"

The two girls who were watching the arts are both talking in an exciting and chilling way.

One is a girl with round beast ears similar to a bear, the other is the same fox-eared girl as Noel. The beast ears were moving hard on the evidence that they were both excited.

"Tomorrow we're going to see the 'Witch' dance."

Noel was nervous about the girl's pure words.

He was a flat Noel when the witches of nobles and colleagues who visit the Great Temple told him to "good luck," but he gets in trouble with the pure thoughts of his children.

"Looking forward to it."

"Oh, the Witch is great."

Four men and women stood beside the two girls.

It would be like a girl between friends and each parent.

"Where are we going next?

You can go see other arts in the park, or you can resume your street tour.

Though asking Noel, she was leaning down and pointing her legs out of the park.

Things are not normal.

"What's up?

Let him sit on a bench on the edge from the park and calm him down by giving him the juice with the fruit he bought.

At first it was Noel who kept his mouth shut without answering, but he never told me his intentions.

"Earlier Parents and Children"

……

"One of my parents is my birth parent."

"Huh!?

Everyone had lost their word in Noel's confession.

You said that you were chosen as a 'witch' to live as a civilian and that the Beast King took you as his righteous daughter.

"I still don't know why I was chosen as a 'witch'. But maybe it's because my parents were devout Tishua followers."

The look on Noel's face saying so seemed terribly lonely.

"All of a sudden I was picked up by my father-in-law for being a 'witch'. Afterwards, I was forbidden to meet my parents in any way possible to hide that I was a civilian. The place I lived was a small town away from the king's capital. I had only had the opportunity to visit my hometown once before, so I couldn't stand to go to the house where I lived. But I didn't have any parents there. I couldn't see her and I didn't have the means to contact her. I tried to forget about my parents. I can't believe we're meeting in a place like this..."

I ran into my parents who were unintentionally separated, and I don't know what to do, Noel.

Above all, he had a happy look on his face.

The girl who was excited to see the art would be the reason she's showing such confusion.

"That girl is the child of a parent born after I'm gone - she's my sister, right?"

All that looked like was parents and kids.

If you mean the real child Noel's parents had, you should be my sister.

Besides, I remember the girl's face again. If you compare the two of them, they look convincingly alike.

"Actually, I've thought about what I would do if I could really survive... Even if I could survive on this one, I probably can't keep 'The Witch' going."

It turns out that there are already enemies all around us.

It was mentally harsh to continue with the 'witch' as it was.

Besides, the fact that death was told by a divine trust cannot be allowed by God to continue to be a 'witch' after the dance of abundance.

"Then come to the Principality of Ishgaria"

Noel shook his head sideways, even as Mr. Mishrina suggested.

"You can't be bothered that much."

"There's another 'samurai' frame left..."

"When I am beside the 'Virgin', a useless certainty will arise between me and the next generation of 'witches'. So you can't go near Mr. Mishrina."

The 'Virgin' is an important position for the Principality of Ishgaria.

Mr. Mishrina can't just pierce her own self more than she has a role as a public figure.

"So I was going to embark on a journey to look for both missing parents..."

Coincidentally, I ran into him in King's Capital.

"If it were possible, if I could live under my parents again, I wouldn't have thought about it."

That family was complete for three.

Noel's sister was innocently admiring the evidence so that she didn't know her sister was a 'witch'. Perhaps I haven't even been told the fact that I had a sister.

"Even if I survive, I'm too free to know what to do"

"Freedom."

Freedom, you have to take responsibility for yourself instead of being tied to nothing. Tied to the heavy pressure of 'witch', she had become too light for her body to be free from her position.

"Then why don't we be adventurers?"

"I don't really recommend it."

Adventurers have a high mortality rate for adventurers whose work can also be synonymous with freedom, but who sometimes take on dangerous requests.

If he had the power to survive, it would be fine, but Noel fails because from what he sees, he is not highly capable of fighting, so he fails by being impotent in his life-threatening quote.

"We've got a lot of time ahead of us, so you should take your time."
