Let's Manage The Tower
(8) Acceleration
After finishing his work in the woods and returning home, Kaiseki leaned his neck into an unusual noise.
"What is it?
"You know? Something may have happened because it's not what it used to be."
What Shreyn said about "usual" was a commotion in praise of the study aid.
But I get the impression that the noise in the village is different now.
As he leaned his neck and walked, he arrived at the Siomara Mansion.
I said goodbye to the elves who guide me through the woods here.
Then, the scholars who entered the Mansion heard from Romana about the cause of the disturbance in the village.
"An adventurer?
The examiner turned his gaze towards Romana as he grabbed his meal.
"Yes, more and more people have entered the woods in the last few days."
I see.
I expected that Utta's boundaries would loosen and widen the hole from there, but I didn't expect the boulder to reach this early.
"No, it's been a long time since that incident, so if it's organized and moving, is it rather late?
"Didn't that mean the army was moving?
Schlein also heard about what had happened before in the village from Kaiseki.
If the army is moving, it is not strange to talk nationally.
However, the movement is too slow for that.
"I don't know. If the army is officially in motion, I feel like the military is coming?
As a confirmation, Kaiseki turned to Romana, but Romana shook her neck to the left and right.
"No. The people on patrol said it wasn't like a regular army costume. After that, it would be strange for the army to pull out just by issuing a warning."
"That's certainly weird."
If you're a soldier carrying a country, you won't pull a warning from a few elves.
Not to mention if we knew we could get deep into the woods.
But at least in the last few days, the patrolling elves just issued warnings, and those found were pulling back.
If it's a soldier, it's unthinkable, but if it's an adventurer, it could save lives.
Especially if the materials are collected before they are warned.
"Did you happen to find a way to collect the materials, or did you come for something? What a disturbing feeling."
"That's right. You should be careful with Kouske's intuition at times like this.
In Shreyn's words, Romana nodded mysteriously, and Kaiseki only stopped laughing.
I had already gained experience that I could not deny, so I had to admit it as an exam aid.
Regardless of the people who are invading the forest, as an assistant, I am also concerned about the reaction of the village, so I also heard about it.
"Was it because the intruders started coming? I have a slightly different gaze from that.
"Oh, is that it? I think it has something to do with what Mr. Kouske has been doing for the last few days."
Heh?
Without understanding the meaning, Kaiseki tilted his neck, but Shreyne, who felt something with a subtle feeling, turned his eyes towards Romana.
"Hmm. Did you accelerate it?
"First of all, definitely."
"It's hard again."
To Romana's answer, Shreyn nodded with her face.
The answer was to think of examinations.
Seeing Shreyn's expression, he felt a restless atmosphere.
"What do you mean?
"It's as sharp as ever in strange places. Well, the dullness hasn't changed."
"Uh-huh, that's good. Tell me."
After seeing the examiner and laughing suddenly, Shreyne talked about the current state of the village.
"Okay? Originally, Kouske and Colette came, and the village was thriving."
"... I see."
"In that way, someone came out of the woods with a surprise of the boundary. Even though the world tree that the elves worship creates the boundary, it is."
At that stage of Shreyne's conversation, I knew what she wanted to say to the examiner.
"Ah... yeah. I kind of figured it out, but keep going."
"Really? For the elves, what happens when we talk about the impact damage and the fact that Kouske is moving to take measures against it?
The examiner sighed loudly at Shreyn, who looked at her with a pleasant expression.
When the examiner glanced, Romana nodded.
"Lord Shreyne is right."
I knew it.
To Romana's answer, I put my right hand against my face for a while, but I finally sighed and gave up.
"Well, that's enough. Just be careful not to overdo it."
The same was true of the world's tree boundaries, but if the faith goes too far, the village itself will be in danger.
It is also possible that the elves were panicked if the examiner had not attempted to respond in advance.
In this case, Romana nodded heavily at the words of Kaiseki, who was soaked in her body and understood it.

Even if we know that there are people invading the forest, it does not change what Kaiseki does.
If anything had changed, the pace of work would have been slightly faster.
That's not why I let go.
Outside the village, the magic team prepares to cover the entire forest, but basically the main task is to collect materials from the forest.
The juncture in the forest is dominated by what Utta stands for, and this time Kaiseki will only make an aid.
In addition, since materials are absolutely necessary to maintain the boundaries of Kaiseki, we must gather materials in the forest where elves can collect them.
That's why we're harvesting in the Seuri forest.
Not every time the magic team of the border repairs, the assistant does not come to the village, so I intend to leave it to someone with some knowledge to repair it.
Of course, Shiomara is the one who has the knowledge.
Under Utta's guidance, Shiomara is eager to study the magical formations of the realm that Kaiseki is desperately trying to create.
Since the place where the magic team is being built will be at the foot of the world tree, the main reason is that only Theomala can enter.
It took about a week for the examiners to go out and finish their work, but then spent time teaching Theomara about the boundary.
In the meantime, as a matter of course, there were adventurers coming from outside the woods, but it seemed that they were only following the warnings of the elves that they were not going to fight.
However, it felt like it was a matter of time, and the adventurers gradually came into the back of the forest.
As the elves went to kill themselves, they came to a state where there was no strange outbreak at all times.
However, the elves know that the auxiliaries are working behind the scenes, so even if they are provoked by the adventurers, they will not take action from us.
However, the adventurers were also expecting it, and despite repeated warnings from elves, they were coming further into the woods.
After all, the elves decided on a line of limits that would not be reached, and finally Kaosuke completed a magical team to reinforce the boundary of the Seuri forest, whether the adventurer would finally cross the line or not.
