Chapter 80 I Think it was Restored (1/2)
After my sermon to Lilia-san ended, I decided to ask her again about the current situation that I’m curious about.
[Speaking of which, what happened to the hunting tournament?]
[Due to the Black Bear Incident, the tournament has been canceled.]
[Well, even if they were to calculate the points we gathered…… The overall winner would be Death King-sama, right?]
My question is answered by Lilia-san and Lunamaria-san.
I see, the tournament was canceled huh…… Well, it can’t be helped but……
[In that case, the Fruit of the World Tree will be……]
[I heard that it’s going to be the prize for next year’s Sacred Tree Festival instead. The Fruit of the World Tree is a mysterious fruit that doesn’t deteriorate with time, so it’s said to be perfectly fine even after a year.]
[I…… see.]
It seems that the Fruit of the World Tree will be next year’s prize, so Lilia-san and the others won’t be able to get it, at least, in this year’s tournament.

Considering how Lilia-san and the other are feeling right now, I probably shouldn’t just lightheartedly talk about it.
After a brief silence passed, Lilia-san turns to Sieg-san and opens her mouth.
[Sieg, I’m sorry. I said something like you should look forward to it, but in the end, I wasn’t able to get the Fruit of the World Tree……]
[…………………]
Receiving Lilia-san’s words, Sieg took out a memo pad and pen from her pocket before writing something on it and turning it towards our direction.
“I’m going to apologize in advance. Lili, I’m sorry.”
[Eh? W- Wait, Sieg…… Don’t tell me……]
[………………]
What was written there kinda looks exactly what I had just said to Lilia-san a while ago.
Seeing what’s written there, Lilia-san’s face turned pale before she took a step back.

And then, Sieg-san clenched her fist and swung it towards Lilia-san without any hesitation.
[Gyyaaaahhhh!?]
S- She was blown away!?
Her iron fist, which is incomparable to my knuckle earlier, sends Lilia-san’s body flying backwards with tremendous force.
Arehh, did she just punch her with a punch filled with magic power…… A- Are you alright there, Lilia-san?
[……Ouch……]
But then, Lilia-san, who had fallen on the floor, got up while holding her face.
No, no, that force of that punch even sent you flying and made you spin twice in the air, you know!? Being hit with that kind of power, and you just reacted to it with an “ouch, even if she says she had used magic power to defend herself, Lilia-san is already almost a monster.
Sieg-san looks at Lilia-san, who is holding her face with tears in her eyes, and shows her what she wrote on her memo pad this time.
“Please don’t make assumptions about my feelings without permission. I’ve told you many times. I’m not blaming you for what happened.”

[……Sieg.]
“I don’t regret losing my voice and resigning from the Knights Order. I’m just happy that I was able to protect the people of my best friend.”
[……………..]
I somehow had the feeling that was the case.
Lilia-san was desperately trying to heal Sieg’s body, but Sieg-san was looking at Lilia-san and the others with a sad expression, rather with an expression that looks like she wants her voice to be healed.
Then, Sieg-san turns to me and slightly smiles.
“Hearing what Kaito-san just said also woke me up.”
[Eh?]
“Lili, I’ve never been able to tell you but…… I’m going to be clear with you, I’ve never once thought of healing this injury.”
[What!?]
