The Preceding Hero and the Rare Bird Silber[1]

We continued down the long Yohel highway that extended from Luxeria as if ere married to it for about teeks

Still in the class of being a young bird, Silber didn't have the stah it took so so little, Silber and I safely caught sight of ”The Forest of Bewilderment”, the forest that spread out near Lizwadia

By the way, Silber is the silver type Kulkel that I'

Being a word that ood and simple name to take pride in

「Seeing as how going around it is a pain, why don't we go though it? Since the h, if we don't stray froet lost」

「Kukeh?」

Having reached here while touring es, I became more or less detailed on Lizwadia

Three years ago, since ress was headed towards Leezelion, we started at Leezelion's outskirts and, without taking any detours, advanced to where the Demon Lord was

Therefore, starting with Lizwadia, wemany of the cities

Even Luxeria, since we only visited the Forest of the Fairies, I didn't enter inside the royal capital

For me at the time, I had heard about the Lizwadia Acade the way, I more or less came to know some of the points to make note of when it came to Lizwadia

One of those was the Forest of Bewilderment

The Forest of Bewilderic that throws a person's sense of direction off kilter cast upon it

Like it was also a sector for the sake of the students' fieldwork, it was ic, you couldn't escape it

If you continue on as you like without confirht back to the entrance after you've taken a terrible amount of steps

Looking at it from the place I'm at now, if you entered the forest from the school that just interposed the forest, you could still be saved, but if one ca north, entered the forest and got lost, it would be a story that you couldn't laugh at

But, it seehway that continues on to the acade from it, there should be no problem

Or, it will be a detour but, if we e circumvention around the forest, it seems we'll be fine

Since monsters won't appear and because it's safe, for peddlers, the detour plan is a sure thing

「Well, seeing as hoant to quickly get to an inn……Let's go just like this, Silber!」

「Kukeh!」

Silber returned my words with a Kukeh cry Recently, with this Kukeh cry, I've become able to understand Silber's mood

Right now, he seeood mood

「Uwah, this forest is pretty dark Is this what you call a ceiling of trees? For it to be this dark even though it's midday……」

As we entered the forest, I was surprised by the gloominess inside the forest

The trees are overgrown, and when you look up, you can only see the sun's light flickering I had heard that it was really, really dark but, it was much darker than I had expected

The torch that I bought from the Ossan of the inn that took care of me yesterday will be useful!

「It isn't just et bewildered by」

I thought it was strange Even if it wasone's sense of direction………It shouldn't be getting you bewildered by showing illusions

That's why if you confirm the direction with the sun's rise and fall, you should be able to confiric

But, if you try to tell ahead of time, the vicinity is dark, and you can't look up at the sky

This will really get you lost

I fastened the torch to Silber's head with a cord

「It becahter didn't it」

「……Kukeh……」

Crying Kukeh in a slow voice, Silber began walking, and after a bit, stopped

「……Ah? What's wrong Silber?」

Did a azed ahead but I couldn't find such a thing

「Silber?…………Oh?」

Silber restlessly looked around the area Getting hooked on to that, I also restlessly looked around

When I did, there was a s on a tree

「So it's that What kind of fruit is it? Is it edible?」

Moreover, when I looked closer, the sa trees

Silber got close to a nearby tree and began eating the fruit that had fallen to the ground

「Ooh, you sure are eating a lot Is it really that delicious?」

Since he began eating with a splendid vigor, when I asked, Silber lowered his posture and let

「So you're telling me to check it out myself, eh」

It looks like he doesn't wanthis meal

Maybe it was because in these teeks he only had beans, it seerossed with the fruit

It sees

「Haeh, what the heck is this」

When I open wide and hold a fruit in my mouth, a sweetness that I can only describe as violence ca out

The flavor itself is to ar is insanely high, it conversely feels bitter
