Kumo Desu ga, Nani ka?
Inside the Elf ②
The next day, me and Katia were being taken by a teacher and headed somewhere inside the elf.
If it's true, it's not a good idea to leave Anna in her current state, but Mr. Heilins told me to "let it be," so I decided to sweeten her to that generosity.
Hopefully, I wanted to go where I was headed, just me and Katia.
What we were on our way was where we were protecting the reincarnated.
Similar trees thrive, resulting in an irreplaceable view.
"You walk a long time."
"Yeah. The inside of the elves is huge. It's about the same size as Tokyo's 23rd arrondissement, near the center of the forest called the Great Forest of Galam."
"So much!?
"Yes, there are agricultural districts, so it's not that densely populated."
"Rather than inside, it's a country."
"It is. This is a natural fortress called the Great Forest, and it has long been difficult to defeat with the dual protection of the junction. Except for the fact that the elves are a little exclusive, I think it's the safest and easiest place to spend time in the world. I thought."
The teacher sighs.
"If the junction is truly destroyed, its safety can no longer be guaranteed either. There is a distance from the outer perimeter of the junction to the inside, so the junction breaks down, not that it's a crisis inside, but it will be a tough fight"
"Does the teacher think the junction will break?
"I'm talking about possibilities. Just because it has never broken before doesn't mean it won't ever break again. No overconfidence."
"The junction, you've never broken it. By the way, how long have you been tied up?
"I don't know. Even the oldest elf outside of Potimus said there was already a bond at birth."
"By the way, how old is that guy?
"I think it was about 480"
"You're on a different scale."
While we were talking about that, we arrived at our destination.
Small fields and livestock enclosures, where people plow fields and take care of livestock.
One of them notices us.
"Welcome home, Doctor"
"Yes, I'm back now"
An unsolicited greeting.
No heart or the teacher's expression is stiff.
It was one girl who came near me.
Age is probably the same as mine.
It also shows that the language she speaks is Japanese.
She is a reincarnator.
"So? Are those two new victims?
"I'm not a victim."
"That must be a difference in consciousness. At least I consider you the perpetrator, though? Well, fine. So, what's your name? Oh, it's not my current name, it's my old name."
The girl turns her gaze here, still in a sinister atmosphere.
"I'm Junsuke Yamada."
Oshima Ip Ta.
"Huh? Oshima?
"Yes, I am."
"Wow."
"What an approximate reaction. Who the hell are you?
"I'm Kudo Sachi. Well, let's get along with the abductees."
Sachi Kudo.
She was the chairman of the class committee.
We weren't that close, but he had a lot of enemies with his clarity saying things, but he was also a kid with many allies.
He also had that personality, and he and Hugo had bumped into each other several times.
But all I care about is Kudo's attitude toward his teacher earlier and a bunch of disturbing words.
Kudo, in his position as chairman of the committee, also had many opportunities to make contact with his teacher, and he should have gotten along quite well.
That's what I stare at as if I see my parents' enemies.
The reason would be the word abduction out of her mouth.
"Doctor, what do you mean by abduction?
"Haven't you Yamada been abducted by your teachers?
"We've come so far to stop Natsume."
Natsume-kun? Is he here, too?
Kudo frowns.
My eyebrows frowned at the way it looked.
With this look, Kudo doesn't know Hugo is attacking inside the elves?
I see the teacher wondering what it means.
The teacher shook his head beside him silently.
Don't say anything extra, is that what you mean?
"Kudo, Natsume is trying to lead the army here now."
"What?"
Katya tells the truth.
Ignore the doctor's gaze.
"Doctor, I'm sorry. I knew I couldn't trust my teacher when I saw the state of things here."
Arm together, Katia spills so into a sigh mix.
"As far as Kudo's concerned, you mean the people here were brought in as abductees, right? Besides, after I brought him in, he felt like he was going to let himself live."
"No!
"No, you're not. I was brought here when I was just a young girl, separated from my parents in this world, and everyone else is more or less like that."
"Because? Besides, you've been isolating a lot of information from me, haven't you?
"Right. Life here is almost self-sufficient. If you ask for what's missing, the elves will bring it to you, but that's just the least. Wake up in the morning, plow and harvest the fields, take care of the livestock, cook and eat. That concludes the day. We can't escape because we have surveillance of the elves, and the elves don't tell us anything extra, so we don't know anything about the outside"
"No, self-sufficiency is to nourish self-vitality!
"You can't even get out of here? What do you need to be self-invigorating in this breeding state?
"It's"
Doctor says.
Everyone was watching how it was, stopping the work.
"Yamada and Oshima, come here. Because I want to hear a lot about it."
Leaving the silent teacher behind, Kudo starts walking.
Katia doesn't get lost in it.
I saw the teacher flicker once and immediately followed him on the back.
The teacher was leaning down with a crying face.
