Let's Manage The Tower
(6) Within the boundary
Seeing Kouhi who had entered earlier stop for a moment, Kaiseki leaned his neck inside.
However, there did not appear to be any danger, so the examination continued.
And after passing through a place that I felt suspicious, Kouhi stopped his feet just like before.
"----This is awesome."
Now, in front of Kaiseki, the scenery of the forest, which seems to have continued from ancient times, was spreading.
Kouhi and Kaiseki were taken away by the sights and stopped by accident.
Sylvia, Floria, and Mitsuki, who followed Kaosuke and Kouchi, stopped in the same way.
The forest was clearly showing its true appearance, unlike what it had been able to see before.
Even though I am not familiar with the trees, I can only see that they have been around for a long time.
"A boundary that visually confuses those who enter the woods."
Kaosuke uttered the words on behalf of everyone who had lost their words while looking at the beautiful forest.
Sylvia and Floria, who were looking around even after listening to their own words, could only laugh aimlessly.
I didn't blame the examiner just to understand how it felt.
The only forests I saw so far were the old forests with the world's trees at their center.
Unlike that elf forest, this one was able to feel more natural just because it was thought that no one (elf) would get it.
Of course, we can only imagine whether it is true or not.
Anyway, I can't help staying in the same place forever.
Above all, I don't think we'll ever leave the intruder behind while we lay this much boundaries.
I don't know what kind of response you will take in the future, but at least it won't be okay to stop at the entrance.
That thought prompted Sylvia and Floria to move on.
It's enough to go through the woods.
The samurai were as fascinated by the beautiful forest as ever.
"Somehow... when you get here, you're out of realities, or you're lost in the world of crops."
When the examiner leaked his thoughts, Floria nodded to agree.
I see. Rather, the goal is to make them think so. "
That's right.
Florian wanted to say that he was aiming for the secondary effect of causing people to forget their original purpose by causing them to take away their eyes, even if he didn't go to fascinate those who saw this forest.
Of course, Kaiseki and Sylvia are not opposed to it, but rather we would like to agree to it with all our strength.
In fact, Kaiseki is just looking around the woods and is feeling calm and fully satisfied.
As far as I'm concerned, this is all done because of the examiners, and those who came here by accident really (...) became fascinated and returned to their original place.
Old stories such as being bewitched by spirits in the woods have spread from people who have talked about their experiences in these woods.
The fact that the examiners are not fascinated is due to their ability to resist fascinating things because each is evolving (and degenerating).
"I'm glad it's evolving at times like this."
Sylvia has advised Floria to be careful when she leaks her thoughts.
"That's not the only reason.
"Really?
"Yes, Kouske, Kouhi, Mitsuki, I think we are greatly protected by the gods."
The charm that comes from the whole forest thanks to the blessing of God (?) It was Sylvia's idea to be able to counter the power of.
In fact, Sylvia, who is gaining strength as a witch, felt that his ability to protect Kaiseki had been increasing since earlier.
Sylvia also nodded at the exam.
"I guess so. Because I myself feel that everyone is using the power of protection."
I can feel the power of protection being used so clearly because Sylvia and Floria are right next door.
Incidentally, Kouchi and Mitsuki do not have the power to assist, but since they are family members, the same power acts.
While talking about this, the students were firmly on their way to what seemed to be the center of the forest.
Sometimes I don't get lost because I'm not attracted, but there are people who are holding the direction (Kouhi & Mitsuki).
--And after a few hours walking in the woods, I finally got to the place.
... but...
"Hmm, I knew it wasn't that good."
Somewhat disappointed, the examiner said so and dropped his shoulder.
If you get to the center, even if it's not a god tree, you're building this forest (do you manage?) I thought it existed, but there were only the same trees as before.
The examiner looked around as it was, but nothing particularly unusual was found.
"I don't know if there's anything more to it than a bond..."
Sylvia said so, but the examiner agreed.
It is natural to assume that there is something at the center of the boundary, because it is like a boundary within a certain range.
Nevertheless, there are no special tools installed.
Once again, Kaiseki, who decided that he could not easily find a way to marry, decided to look around the forest carefully.
Apart from whether it is done intentionally, there is no doubt that there is more than boundaries.
At this time, the examiner was obsessed with finding out how the boundary was formed, forgetting the original purpose.
The women who had arrived with him were aware of it, but they dared not point it out.
Sometimes this kind of study aid doesn't stop, and more than anything else, it may seem like it's the only way to get the right answer.
Somehow, it is often a convenient development (for Kaiseki) whether it is an intuition as a human god or a ability.
Of course, Sylvia and Floria weren't just watching it because they were obsessed with studying.
While following the exam aid, they were doing what they could.
In the meantime, I realized that Sylvia was more important than Kaiseki, after about an hour had elapsed since I arrived at the center of the forest.
