In My Previous Life I Was a Saint, but Now I Want to Cut Corners
Episode 40 Ingredients of the Staff
Some people explore trees that become ingredients for canes with friends, but Lenalia decides to find them alone.
If Phil finds out what the fruit smells like, he'll find it.
Anyway, we can't find it right away without looking for it.
That's why Lenalia starts walking in the woods.
"I don't know, Phil.Do you smell fruit?
Lenalia walked in the least crowded direction possible.
That way, I can talk to Phil and the others without hesitation.
"Well, it smells like orange and apple flowers.... and then, it looks like peach blossoms are blooming a little further away. "
"Chum, peach!Peaches are good!
Chum jumps into Phil's words, shaking his wings.
"It's not Chum, it's Lenalia's decision.Lenalia, what are you going to do? "
"That's right...."
"Um, but Chum likes peaches."
"That's why it's up to Lenalia!
When angry Phil rang his wings, Chum shouted "hoo" and hid behind Lenalia's head.
And it's safe here, reflecting the light that spills from the leaking day, and it goes into the shining golden hair.
"Chum, it tickles."
"But... Phil's angry."
"It's okay, I'm not really mad at you.See, Phil?
Phil sat on Lenalia when she reached for her hand.
"... so which tree are you going to?
"Why don't we take a look at the flowers?I'm sure the blooming peach blossoms are beautiful. "
"I did it! Peach ~, peach ~"
Chum, who was hiding in Lenalia's hair, jumped out with great joy.
"Absolutely... Lenalia is kind."
"Phil is kind too.You must have been mad at me.
"... because Lenalia is my contractor."
Phil's ears were slightly red when he turned sideways.
Lenalia laughed softly.
Follow Phil to the back of the woods.
There's no sign of a monster because it's within the boundaries of the school.
There were many trees growing in the forest, but it wasn't strange and dark.
The light that spills from between the branches shines like a jewel, adding colour to the trees.
The stepping grass is soft and easy to walk.
It looks like a natural forest, but I'm sure the school is in good hands and well maintained.
"Is the peach tree around the fountain of the Virgin?
Maybe a little further.
According to Phil, Lenalia stops in surprise.
We're going to cross the border.
"Lenalia would be fine if there were monsters.There's no one nearby so I can use my magic as much as I want. "
I look at Lenalia with the same eyes Phil expected because he's always holding back his magic.
"So Phil wants to use all his magic."
Phil shook the head of his nose into Lenalia's teased face.
Ehehe. Correct "
Chum too. Chum also uses a lot of magic. "
"If you use fire magic in the woods, you'll catch fire."
"I wanted to help Chum too."
"I need to get a little bigger.Now that you're my child, you'll soon grow up. "
"Yeah, it gets bigger."
As Phil flies around, so does Chum.
It's like a brother and sister, and Lenalia watches with a smile.
Lenalia was still attached to Arthur before he remembered.
... occasionally, you might want to do that.
There was no family in Lenalia in the previous life, but there is a kind family in this world.
What a luxury it is to have someone who is so sweet.
Yes. Once we find the tree that will be the ingredient of the cane, we should go to the report.
And I want to talk to oniisama about tea slowly for the first time in a while.
Lenalia thinks she'll find a nice cane ingredient for that.
And the scent of flowers arrives on the wind.
"Here it is, Lenalia."
When did he leave the border?
Without being attacked by a monster, Lenalia arrived at the place.
In front of her was a flower of blooming peaches.
There are three colors of flowers blooming from one tree: red, pink and white.
Well, what a beauty.
A rich aroma rises in the wind, and freshly blooming flowers sway the sweet petals.
"Hold on a second.I'll ask if I can get a branch. "
"Yes, please, Phil."
It is the Spirit who contracts with the students to receive the branches that form the ingredients of the cane.
It seems that if I forcibly drop a branch, it might even help me.
But if you ask firmly through the Guardian Spirit of the contract, the branch of blessing will fall naturally.
So Lenalia waited with Chum for Phil to get permission from the peach tree.
When Phil leaves the conversation with his hands on the tree for a while, Potty and a twig fall.
It was a straight, sticky branch that still had lovely flowers on it.
Lenaria picked up the branches and smelled the flowers.
"It smells good...."
"Wow, the peach branch."
Chum laughs more joyfully than Lenalia.
"Phil, thank you very much.Thank you, Peach Tree, for giving me your precious branch.Let me use it carefully. "
Lenalia bows in gratitude.
Phil has a tall nose.
"I got the best part."
That's Phil.
Praising him that way, Phil jumped around happily.
Chum also flew around with him again.
All of a sudden, Chum stopped moving.
Huh? There's a sign of fire...
"Fire? Oh, my God, fire."
Phil leaned toward Lenalia in a hurry.
Looks like someone's fighting a monster.
"Eh, in the border?
"Yeah, outside."
So, did someone accidentally go outside the boundary?
"Oh, my God! Who's fighting?
"Hmm. I wonder if she's contracting a salamander.I don't know anybody. "
"Do you know what kind of monster it is?
It's Trent.
Trent is a tree monster that stretches branches and roots to catch prey and nourish itself.
I fought well in my previous life.
Sure, the magic of fire works well, but in the woods it becomes a big fire.
"Let's go help, Phil.Show me. "
Lenalia held onto the peach branch and asked Phil to show her the way.
