Transition to Another World, Landmines Included

east side of the pinning.

About 30 minutes to walk out of the gate and withstand the heat.

At the end of my gaze I could see the forest.

If you say it in Lafan, a forest that looks somewhat manned, closer to the south than the north forest.

In front of the forest, the fence was easily patrolled.

Pretty poor substitute, about hip tall. It's pretty old, rotten and crumbling in some parts.

It is useful in the sense of indicating boundaries, but it would make no sense at all as the original role of the fence.

"From around here, sounds like the land in question. There's a fence."

"I can get over it normally, though."

With that said, Yuki jumps over.

"Me too! Me too!

"Ah, Me!

Meatier jumps right over after Yuki, followed by Mary.

It's a slightly higher fence from Meatier, but around jumping over it easily, he's still highly athletic.

The rest of us cross the fence, too, into the woods.

"Is this whole forest the private property of the brewery...... That's pretty big."

"Precisely, including the mountain behind it, huh? And it's not private property, it's" land authorized for exclusive use. "

It seems that the ownership of the land itself lies with Viscount Nenas, and that the Brewery in the matter, Viscount Nenas, has only issued a permit.

But on the contrary, it seems to be a factor that makes people hesitant to break in.

Without having to think about it, the latter is naturally also more psychological hurdled if it is to break into the private homes of ordinary people and into the houses of nobility.

There will be no one to blame in a place like this, but if we don't have access permits, we can't legally complain about getting busted all of a sudden.

I wouldn't normally think of going in.

"Huh, that's pretty cool. In this forest."

"Right. I feel like a forest bath."

Into the woods, ambient temperatures were clearly lower.

Daylight is blocked by tall growing trees, and as you walk between them, the occasional cool wind blows through.

I don't have the depressed impression that the location of the road on the map is natural and that other places are undergoing some maintenance.

"Normally, this would make it a tourist destination."

"Yes, it looks like a well-maintained hiking course"

"I don't think you can do that, given your purpose."

Originally this forest and the mountains behind it are protected for good water.

If you let people in there, you'll end up falling. I don't know what I'm servicing it for.

Even if it's the way we're walking, it's built to carry water, not a walkway.

From my senses, it seems useless to secure all this land, just to get water, but that's this world with extra land. I guess there's not much wrong with that aspect.

However, since manpower will be needed in terms of maintenance, the cost of doing so also seems to be compressing the finances of the brewery in question.

Very well. Well, it's that much restraint.

"In the meantime, if you walk down this road, you get to the desired water intake... you get to the pond, right?

"If you depend on the map, yes. I'm talking about being in a bit of a climbing position... shall we walk away?"

"It's been a long time, you know, this kind of leisure time"

Usually, when I go into the woods, I solidify myself into gear, but today I just have a weapon in my everyday clothes.

Of course, we are on alert in [Sovereign], but so far there has been no demonic reaction.

I also find it kind of strange, but this one is normal.

They just have a special area around Raffan, which is actually less of a forest with demons.

That said, about one in three demons seem to live there, and even if they are classified as animals like Vape Bear, there are dangerous organisms, so “many forests are safe” is very unlikely to be said.

"Ma, I'm playing half the time today. Take it easy and walk away."

"" Yes!

Mary and Meetier reply happily and walk around looking around.

It must be an interesting experience to be able to walk relaxed in the woods for two people who have little experience of being out of the city in and of themselves.

We walked down the road from the back of the woods to the mountains, following those two.

◇ ◇ ◇

About an hour from the foot of the mountain climbing the mountain path was a bowl-shaped hole that seemed to be about 200 meters in diameter.

Looking down from its edge, there is a pond about 30 metres in diameter at the bottom, whose water shines in deep blue.

Very transparent, clear water, but still so deep that the bottom is not well visible.

"... beautiful"

As touched, it was the nuts that snapped with the potpourri.

I didn't put it in my mouth either, but I sigh a little unlikely blue in normal water.

Instead, I think there might be some kind of mix of bad stuff, but I've been using that water to make ale for a long time, so maybe it's not a problem.

You look really bad in sapphire blue.

"Awesome! It's beautiful blue!

"It's bright blue!

Meatier and Mary, honestly exclaimed, run down the road leading to the pond.

After that, Toya walks after him.

If you're in the woods, you're in a hurry to stop, but there's no response to [the enemy], and whether the vegetation is slightly different in the ring bowl, the trees that are growing are neglected, and the outlook is good.

If you fall, you may get hurt, but you don't seem to have to worry about demons or anything like that.

"Could this hole be a fire escape?

Hulka, who was looking around, said so, and Yuki nodded again to agree.

"In shape, it also looks like the mountain belly blew up with an eruption, doesn't it? Like Mt. Fuji's Baonang Crater."

"It's much smaller."

"Doesn't that mean the pond has water gushing out of the crater?

"It can't be, can it? I'm not familiar with geology."

My question is answered with Hulka twisting her neck.

I don't know much about it either, but I know there are things that can be done at the fire escape.

"But if you think of it as volcanic, you can also understand a little bit of that blue"

"Really?

"Yes, water without micro-organisms can be that color. It's on Earth, too, isn't it? It's just because it's hot…"

"I look like normal water, don't I?

"At least there's no hot air."

Other causes - strong acidity, strong alkalinity, for example, if it is such water, organisms and plants will not be able to live, and (only by appearance) it may be clean water, but no way will we be able to use such water to make ales.

It's even more difficult if it's a poison that I don't really understand.

"In the meantime, let's get down there. It's an investigation."

"Right."

When the four of us followed Toya down first and reached the side of the pond, Mary and Meetia played with Pasha Pasha in the pond water and Toya watched behind it.

We'll loosen our cheeks a little too when we see how those two are doing.

"It's good to bring you"

"Right."

Ever since I met us, Mary didn't show me how to cry, but that look was often hard.

Naturally, too.

He suddenly lost his guardian father and was left with only two sisters to protect.

No matter how much we said we'd protect you, my anxiety wouldn't have gone away.

But that, too, made me feel somewhat forgiven for spending the past few days with us, with a slightly softer look on my face, and I often laugh with pleasure today.

"Haha, it's cold! It feels good!"

"Nao, water, it's so cold!

Even though it is a little cooler in the woods, it is summer.

It's still usually hot.

I also crouched down to the side of the pond, cold enough to sweat when I put my hand in the water.

"Cold! But it feels pretty good."

"Right!

"It's blue, but not blue!

Strangely pinch Meetia as she shows the dull removed water in both hands.

"It's not like the water has color on it."

"Really?

"It is. The reason it looks blue..."

It looks like blue water from the top, so I get the question.

Because we're too blue to wonder.

As a general rule, I understand it as a relationship of light, but when it comes to explaining it...

"Natsuki, Pass"

Troubled, I was coming behind. Gorgeously through-pass Natsuki.

Natsuki, suddenly told the story, twisted her head as she black-and-white her eyes.

"Is that me!? I can explain, but I need a lot of scientific knowledge to understand..."

There are certainly many things to explain, such as the principle of seeing color, the wavelength of light, and the absorption of light.

It's hard to explain that easily, and to a kid who doesn't have the knowledge around it.

"Uh, Meetia. This pond looks blue for the same reason that the sky looks blue, why do you think Meetia thinks the sky is blue?

"Uh, uh... I'm sure there's a blue ceiling, much higher!

In a way, a very childish answer.

You look blue, so it's natural to assume there's something blue.

"The ceiling. It's a little different. The air and water here are also really very light blue. When we get together a lot, a lot, it looks thick, doesn't it? So maybe you could call it a“ blue ceiling ”with all the air that's gathered."

"Really!? Awesome!

Meetia raising her voice like she was surprised at Natsuki's explanation and Mary nodding like she was impressed when she heard it on the side.

It feels like I've managed to explain it in an easy way...

"(Harka, is that explanation correct?

"(As a general rule," air molecules diffuse visible light of short wavelengths. "So," the air is blue. "That's not a mistake.)"

"(Normal color,“ reflex, "so it's a little different from“ diffusion, "but it's hard to explain, for kids)"

"(There are sunsets and stuff, so technically it's not...)"

"Halka, Yuki, if there's any good explanation, I'll ask you, right?

You heard our secret story, Natsuki said that with a good smile, but Hulka silenced for a moment and changed her story to say hello.

- Okay, let's do a pond survey.

Hulka can do it if he tells me to explain it accurately, too, but I guess it's a little hard when he tells me to chew it up and talk it up so the kids in this world can understand.

At least, I can understand that we won't be talking about a little explanation in a short time.

And there's nothing you can say to me for passing an explanation to Natsuki.

"Ha... Meetia, Mary. Technically, my explanation is a little different, but it's very difficult to explain precisely. If you really want to know the exact thing, study hard. Then you might know what time it is."

"Really? Good luck."

"Okay."

Meetia and Mary, who nod honestly to the snarky line of prevention, but will we understand it in the discipline of this world?

Well, I'm a little concerned, but if that leads to a willingness to learn, I might say yes.

Because of that, it is now a pond investigation.

"It's a rather strange pond, this"

Once again peeking inside, this pond is so deep that it is suddenly depressed from the shoreline that its bottom is invisible.

Now, the transparency is high, and it can be confirmed at least to a depth of about 20 meters, so its depth is considerable.

Because of its high transparency, it also feels as if it's peeking into a hole with nothing, rather than peeking into a pond, and its deep blue color goes hand in hand, even feeling the fear of being sucked in.

Of course, I just need to swim where I fell and I know it's no different than swimming where my legs are normally off......

"Beautiful tea, isn't it, this water? For what I saw."

Yuki, as a little shuddered, took the water and overflowed, looking at the sparkling, clear water.

"Right. I don't have a problem touching it, and I don't know what it tastes like."

I'll crouch down and take the pond water, too, and include it in my mouth a little.

I find it very cold and delicious, but what's the problem with this?

"Nao, are you okay?

"[Sturdy] I have, and you're gonna be fine. If it sucks, Halka, don't ask me?

"I'll treat you then... how's Toya?

"Which... Hmm, maybe, but with a slightly unpleasant odor, huh?

Toya, who drank water just like me, says with a little neck tied.

I'll try the water again too... I have no idea.

"I can feel it slightly with my sense of smell."

"... on the contrary, the craftsman at Kundan's brewery felt it, right?

"You will. - You're really good as a craftsman. Not as a proprietor."

It's hard to think of the sense of smell as the Toya of the Beast Man, and the taste is so sharp...?

No, there's no chance that the craftsman is a beast man.

"Well, suppose that smell is the problem. I wonder what caused it."

Even if you look around, you don't see anything in particular.

I wish it had been easy to understand and even trash had fallen (?), but it should be said that there was no such thing.

"Maybe it's spring water."

Yuki points to the corner of the pond as she nods at my words.

"There's a river too, but that's a little small, isn't it, to maintain this pond"

Only one river flows into this pond too small to call it a creek.

Finally, there are no rivers running out of the pond.

"It looks like the water outlet is in the pond too."

"If it's volcanic land, there's going to be plenty of gaps."

If water supply and drainage are carried out by cavities made of volcanic activity, can there be no river or clear water to this point?

But then...

"If the cause is in the spring water, there's nothing we can do about it?

"Right. At least we won't be talking about this year's water."

Haruka agrees with Toya, who told him like he was scared.

Mary asks strangely when she hears the words.

"Really?

"Yep. Spring water is a few to a few decades old water gushing out at a hundred-year level if it sucks. So even if we find out what's causing it now, we're way ahead of us."

"I'm in trouble!

I dust at Meatier, who raises both hands in surprise, but in fact if that's what causes it, it's serious.

If there was a cause decades ago, of course, it would be difficult for us to find it.
