The fist of a huge tree, swung itself downwards, it raises its huge log arm towards the skies and swings it towards the ground.

Kirika and Sierra who flew out of harm’s reach by a hair’s breadth to the side. A blue and light green mantle, the afterimage’s of the two colors went left and right.

「Ku! If such a gigantic figure is raging about like this, the chance for a counter attack is…….!」

「Eei, it doesn’t matter who it is, buy me ten seconds of time!」

Palmyra was floating among the trees, and she begins to collect purple colored magical energy using both of her hands.

The enemy is a tree ogre…….its cranium was eerie and its tree trunk face looked ghastly. It was a ferocious giant tree man.

Once again, that fellow raised his fist which was currently in the soft earth of the forest and prepares to strike again.

「It’s a chance, Nana!」

Immediately after my instructions, Nana came out from behind and the movements of the tree ogre was stopped.

「Nuuuooooooo!! I’ve pinned it down!!」

As if the armored golem was holding on to the large tree, the tree giants arm was firmly captured and there was no sign of them separating.

The giant was using its other arm in an attempt to break free from her grasp by trying to knock down the living armor, however…..!

「I will entrust it to you, Amelia!」

「Leave it to me! Hey you despicable thing, Come and taste my Chained Blade!」

The blade transformed from Amelia’s hands into its whip form, and it shoots out and binds the other arm of the Tree Giant to restrain it.

Using her supple and flexible body, she jerked with strength. Using the Chained blade to constrict the giant tree man she pulled the chained blade with her utmost strength.

When she did, an earth-shattering sound of the tree ogre’s right hand was thoroughly cut by the roots as it flew and crashed into the ground. (sfx: baki baki!)

「Hou, well done, I’ve collected the magical energy! Now then, Princess Knight, Let’s give that a try!」

「Eh? Without testing it out before!? It can’t be helped I guess……I understand, try to match the timing correctly!」

「Hmph, who do you think you are talking to!」

Kirika brandishes her sword the Alkanshel, and leaps into the air using Aerial circles as a foothold.

The tree ogre could not use both of his arms, however, his head which had various thick lush plants and trees growing on it began to undulate, and innumerable ivy roots were shot out straight towards Kirika in a snake like motion to intercept her attack.

However, in that moment, a burst of elemental arrows which wears the magic of the wind came shooting past, and the ivy was splendidly pierced one after another.

「Obstructions………Will not be allowed…….」

「Nice! Sierra!」

All of its attacks were sealed off, and the tree ogre was unable to stop the movements of Kirika.

To its upper part of its thick trunk, the translucent blade pierced into it very deeply.

「Do it now, Palmyra!」

「Kufufu, acknowledged! Embrace death and take flight, the judgment of demonic light!……..Dispersing Demonic Buckshot: Division Bullet!! 」

Kirika released her sword which was still embedded in the tree ogre, and immediately jumped backwards to take refuge.

Palmyra’s jet black Goth loli dress was violently fluttering, as she fired out her intense violet colored magical force. Her aim was, the tree giant………or not, her true aim was the Alkanshel blade which was still stuck to its trunk.

「The blade that is able to affect all dimensions is able to cut through all forms of existence, magical force is another thing it can cut without exceptions. Now, Split and burst open! My Magical Bullets!!」

A thunderous roar like a bolt of lightning struck resounded, the tree ogres upper half of the body, exploded in an eruption of energy and was torn in half. Palmyra’s explosive magical energy she fired, collided with the blade and caused a chain reaction of violent detonations. Moreover, the blade was already stuck into its internal organs……and when the explosion struck, the rampage of magical energy probably destroyed it from within.

「Ohh, We did it!」

The Princess Knight’s holy techniques and the Demoness’s magic from hell, originally such an absurd combination would be impossible to see, and receiving a direct hit from such a spell, the Tree Giant slowly crumbles down like a fallen tree. Whilst I did use my slave reinforcement magic to strengthen them, being able to take down a large scaled Elven monster flawlessly without harm, means that this party has gotten that much stronger.

「Good work, everyone. Please call Nina and the Princess who is taking refuge at the back to us」

「I understand Master. Ah, it ended faster than I expected, I wanted to cut it a little bit moree……」

「Hmph, Anyways, if we proceed deeper into the forest, there will be more troublesome foes that appear」

After collecting the Alkanshel from its corpse and processing the treatment after the battle, we moved onwards, however, I noticed that there was a shadow of a person who was quite separated from us.

She was shouldering her bow on her back, and it was Sierra who stood in silence.

「……………………」

Her cool gaze, increased in profoundness as she quietly watched the forest of elves.

When I looked at her, I remembered the night she told me her story.

「Sierra……Has an important elder sister……..」

In the Bedroom of the Villa. I was holding her from behind, and the temperature of her pure-white slender body felt good. Somehow or other, we were both naked as I spooned her by the bed, whilst listening to her talk.

「Oh? That is the first time I’ve heard of this」

「Although, we are not connected by blood………Sierra is an elf, Elder sister is…….A Dark Elf」

Dark elf.

It doesn’t really signify that they are evil per say, their bodies adjusted to living in dark places, and they are a race of brown skinned beings. They worship the twin sister goddesses, one holds power over death, whilst the other holds power over life. They are named Ashuguin and Teiputori, the dark elves prefers to live in caves and underground basements where they will build a community.

「Sierra and Elder sister…….Was brought up together as if we were true sisters……….」

Their tribes holds a very old friendship and cultural exchange, and Sierra’s tribe and the “Elder sisters” tribe had a custom of entrusting the children to each other when they were very young. Supposedly Sierra and her “Elder sister” both grew up together happily.

「But………」

As they grew older, the “Elder sisters” mother fell sick and suddenly died, that was the turning point. She ruled over the Dark Elves tribe festive rituals, apparently she was one of the Shrine Maidens lineage. When the predecessor dies, she was elected as the new Shrine Maiden, and she was forced to return to her own tribal village.

「So it was a sudden separation. Were you lonely?」

「Yes……..But, it was inevitable………Elder sister, was already prepared that such a day will come…..however」

Sierra had one thing, she was worried about. Dark elf’s who are a part of the lineage of Shrine maidens are given special powers, but in exchange, they have a curse placed on them to shorten their life spans. “Elder sister”, her mother, and even grandmother……. From the perspective of the long lived elves, they lived exceedingly short lives. In other words, she would also be the same…

「That’s why…..Sierra wants to find any methods in order to get rid of the curse……Sierra has to find it somehow」

The elders of the elf tribe says “We have never heard of such a thing”, and they told Sierra to give up silencing her requests. However, Sierra was not able to give it up. That’s because, she thought her “Elder Sister” was too precious to give up on.

「I see. Is that why you headed out of the forest and became an adventure in order to look for the means to cure her curse?」

Sierra nods in assent.

Nina and the other also knew of this fact, and whilst they were commissioned to complete other requests, they always had their eyes open for a way to help Sierra out.

「However, I have yet been able to find any methods until now……..That’s why, returning to the forest without any results……..makes me a little depressed」

She grasps the bed sheet which was in front of her full and heavy chest with her thin hand. Although I couldn’t see her face as I was behind her, for sure, her expression was one of self-contempt and powerlessness.

「So because of this, the moment I talked about entering the forest of the elves, your started to act strangely….」

「…….Hya, Hyaau!? Ah, my Lord……!?」

Surprise, Sierra voice jumps out suddenly. Her long honey colored ears, was being nibbled by me.
