Let's Manage The Tower

The aides who caused trouble in the western city were traveling the next day.

I have contacted Towa so she will handle the rest well.

It wasn't supposed to be face-to-face, but Dudney didn't seem to think he could stop Floria from telling Tois.

Rather, it is often better for the top of the country to know that there was no commotion in the first place.

It's better for Dudne not to shut up strangely than to have a parent-child relationship.

Dudne was surprised to learn that he was leaving in a hurry the day after the disturbance occurred, but he could not tell the truth and appropriately deceived him.

Of course, this did not entirely convince Dudney, but because he knew to swallow incompletely, he never asked me anything more.

In that way, the scholars left the western city behind.

The scouts, who left the response to Towa, were running toward Kennelsen in the northwest of the continent.

Children seem to be completely accustomed to the journey, and almost no tiredness from the journey is seen.

Of course, it wasn't exactly the same as when I was at home because the environment was different, but it was the same as when I was relaxing at home.

That is why the examiners were allowed to accompany them on their journey all the time.

However, as far as Mik was concerned, whether he was at home or in a self-propelled carriage, he would have done little different.

Mick plays the streets whenever he has time, but his training time as a succubus is well reserved for peaches.

If they say they'll take the streets if they don't train properly, Mik can't skip it.

Meanwhile, Seya and Shea have been trained by Colette on spirituality.

However, even when it comes to training, I have been taught how to deal with spirits and how to talk to them, so it seems like they have been taught a language for conversation with friends who don't understand the words.

Both listened and practiced with pleasure from Colette.

In addition, just like Mick, who was playing the streets, he realized that they could do something, and he was able to grasp his mind.

One day, traveling with children was becoming part of everyday life.

Shreyn, Seya and Shea, who were with Sylvia picking up firewood, approached Kaiseki and Colette in a hurry.

"Sir, the woods are crazy!"

Kaaa-sama, the spirit is in trouble ~

The examiner, who had seen the two of them, looked at Colette face to face.

Then he immediately turned to Shreyne and Sylvia.

However, they shook their necks to the left and right when they turned to the examiner.

"I didn't feel anything funny about it."

"Me too."

"But it was weird!

Kaosuke stroked Seyya's head as if she had rushed to Shreyne and Sylvia's words.

"I don't suspect anything else, so let's calm down a little.... Colette?"

"Hmm..."

Colette, who turned his attention from the examiner, thought about the children's words for a while before swinging his neck to the right and left.

"I can't. We don't have enough information to make a decision. I'm going to go to the scene."

Behind the woods is enough distance for children to pick up firewood.

Considering that it might not be too far away, Colette suggested so, and the examiner who thought the same agreed.

Colette and her children went to a place where things were going wrong.

For the time being, Shreyn was following her so as not to get lost, but those were the two who pulled the blood of the spiritual elf even though they were children.

Without showing a bit of confusion, you slowly advance to the back of the forest.

"... have you gone this far?

Even though they have already reached a point where they don't need to go that far to pick up firewood, the children are not stopping, they are going further.

Shreyne shrugged her shoulders to Colette, who looked at her with a little blame.

"There's no other way. Even if it's a kid, it's still drawing blood. If you really run in the woods, you'll break your bones and get caught. And I didn't feel any danger."

If I felt any signs of monsters, I would have stopped the children by any means, but I didn't feel any such signs.

There are many ways to stop the runaway children, but since it's a bit rough, the agreement between Shreyne and Sylvia that they don't want to use it if possible led them to go much further.

"... yes. This will be your sermon when you get back."

Colette smiled a little, knowing that it was the children's runaway rather than Shreyne's fault.

"Earlier"

Looking at Colette, whose mouth was laughing but his eyes weren't laughing, Shreyne responded with a clever imitation of shrugging her shoulders as she ran.

The children stopped walking about two or three minutes after Colette decided to preach.

Kaaa-sama, this is it ~

"Not now!

Colette looked around herself when she saw the children looking around.

There was no strange feeling in Colette when I saw the smell.

But they don't seem to be messing with the kids.

Colette focused on raising her awareness so that she could see the spirits more deeply.

This will allow Colette, who has been trained as a witch in the World Tree (Essena), to see things that no other Elves can see.

Still, I can't beat the children's abilities.

Having finally been able to grasp the situation, Colette took a deep breath at the sight.

"... this is definitely weird."

The children reacted to Colette who accidentally leaked her words outside.

I knew it was weird!

Spirit-san, I'm touching you ~

It was too late when I thought it was over.

Colette hastily decided to follow the children.

"Calm down a little. As often as this happens. We need to find out more about what's really going on."

"Really?

"What's that?

Colette nodded to the twins who leaned their necks together.

"That's right. So let's get back to you."

Colette then turned to Shreyne.

If we were to look into the woods in earnest, we decided that we should report it to the examiner once, as we would not know if we would take more time.

Suffering from Colette's intentions, Shreyne nodded silently without saying anything.

Colette, who returned to the camp, reported to the examiner in the absence of the children.

"Hmm, I see. Then how long will it take to be clear?

I don't want to be in the same place for as long as possible as an assistant during the ceremony.

A few days is fine, but more than that will definitely interfere with the ceremony.

"That's what I need to find out. I want half a day, at least."

"What is it? Is that all you need?

The examiner, who thought it would take more time, said so with a sloppy face.

"Of course, in some cases it can take longer. Half a day is the minimum you need. Besides, it's a great opportunity to teach the kids a lot."

The examiner, who heard Colette's words, was summarily executed.

In that case, let's stay here tonight.

"... is that okay?

"I don't mind staying overnight. It's good for the kids."

When Kaiseki replied with a smile, Colette returned a smile to Kaiseki in the same way.
