Chapter 97: Magic Sealing Forest
――I came to and, I was in the sky
Even if I try followingin such
There’s waking fro and now this
I have experienced a sense of falling while half asleep but, this is a real free fall
I had only layed sideways on the roo Rin-chan
I didn’t intend to sleep but, I suppose I fell asleep since I was lured in by Rin-chan who see way
I can grasp that much
And so what came after that is unknown
……On that note
「Isn’t this too unknown!!?」
The noise froh that the words I unintentionally shouted didn’t reach my ears
This buzzing in my ears is harsh, my ears hurt!
What is this, just what is happening to my body!?
「Munya, deshi+~, where is this~?」
「Rin-chan!?」
I finally realized that that it can’t be said that I’m alone
It seems that I’d unconsciously put power intoto have trouble breathing because I’htly
「Still tired~」
Saying only what she said she closed her eyes
Though it’s better than falling into a panic, with this situation, if we act poorly, it really will go poorly you know?
……Setting that aside I work my head
First off grasp the situation
Presently I and Rin-chan are, doing a free fall within the sky of an unknown place
As far as I can see our altitude is significant
It’s not a height of 10 meters or 20 meters or such
The scenery spread out while looking down is clouds and, peeking through the gaps in those it’s distant earth
Spread out on that vast earth is a deep belt of forest
「――tsu」
Becohts cleared up in one shot
This sort of height is an altitude of thousands of meters!
Is this HALO!?
「……Huh! Do I have a parachute!?」
I tried groping around
……All right, there isn’t enough ti
I’d like lodge a complaint at this situation but, whether God or buddha I couldn’t find the party to complain to
Really, if surprisedly saying ould ih
「……After going to a lower altitude I’ll cancel out ic to land」
To be sure air resistance and gravity reach an equilibrium so my velocity shouldn’t rise indefinitely
My altitude is a little high but, it’s incredibly high but, it’s still the case that this is no different from the sense and action every time I do a jump
……Since it’s so high I’ decoh
Before that I’m not cold even in a housedress
「……?」
It seems like I’m somehow still sleep addled
Checking the surroundings while showing a little caution, there’s a membrane built to protect me
Regardless of howeversound is from outside the membrane
This is……Flaic?
「Eclair?」
No, that
This isn’t Eclair’s crimson flame
This radiance is……
「Alice-san, good !」
While I’s, a voice called out froh altitude
「You……from before?」
That child who breaks through common sense is, the outlaho raised a commotion at the mansion the day before
「Un unn, that’s right」
The forirl as enveloped by a membrane of flame in the same manner as myself, became exposed for the first time
Her deep hood was blown by the wind so, her vibrant black hair like a japanese doll flowed through the air
A sort of ht could be perceived in those eyes of the sa beast
Strength hidden within a beautiful appearance like a created object
The pinnacle of a yamato nadeshi+ko is here
Such an appearance
「Who ht you be?」
「It oing to fall you know?」
Just as stated by the girl pointing toward the lands below, there’s not enough time to prepare leisurely
The ground has already become much closer
If I don’t cancel out our velocity with ic power!
「Thunder!!」
I releasethe earth
I slowly kill off our energy with the lightning’s repulsive force
「Thunder! Thunder!!」
I repeatedly release lightning
Not just firing it, but so as to rebound the next shot off of the charged lightning in the ground
Our velocity steadily eased away
Yosh, let’s finish this!
「――Oh ray of light, blade descended fro!!」
Using lightning with my full power behind it, I completely canceled out the velocity from our fall
Measuring by eye our distance fro here is ideal
「Fuu……」
This really is tiring isn’t it
Blowing out a relieved breath, the girl stopped before ave me a smile
「As expected right!」
Flaic is it
Is this this child’s type of ic?
「――But take care! This forest is you see……Since this is theforest」
「――Ha?」
I suppose it wasn’t like it was because she toldto a stop with repulsive force ic power vanished
「Hee!?」
Wait wait!
We’re still high!!
「Hyaaaa!?」
Wishi+ng in vain, the exact reverse
I tumbled and fell to the bottom cushi+oned by the trees’s leaves
Rolling with the rey, my back was struck by a splendid tree’s trunk that displayed itself from out of the earth and, I finally stopped
「I am――MakinaI’m sorry……I still won’t help outAlice-san, take care okay」
As I had become round like a caterpillar, she made conversation to me from the sky with a kind tone
And so without descending into the forest, her figure vanished like a heat shi+mmer
It’s also different from the teleportation Libra used
Just now, could it possibly be that that wasn’t her real body?
Just what is……that girl
For whatever reason that girl’s fla major happened to Rin-chan
At most I hit her in the back when I impacted
But it’s certain that ic can’t be used
「Thunder!」
Even if I pray, even if I howl, nothing happens
The forest that seals ic power is it……
It seeh it then
There’s neither food nor water
I don’t want Rin-chan to face hardshi+p
I have to hurry and leave this forest
「……To be sure, it was in the direction over there I think」
I have a hint
I was able to confirm the lay of the land from the upper air
There’s no mistake that the forest is wide but it’s not to the extent that, I have no idea where to go
I should be able to leave
「Though, Iat this forest naively……」
But even if it’s naive such a thing doesn’t matter
If I can’t get out there’s nothing more to say
The forest’s undergrowth can’t be handled like a lawn but, it wasn’t to such an extent that it interfered alking
The greater half of the trees were tall and large so, there weren’t many instances where leaves or tree branches blocked my way
What I have to watch out for really is monsters or wild animals then
If I could use ic I wouldn’t have my back taken any time soon but since, without that I’m just a normal person, aren’t I
「……Normal person?」
I looked suspiciously at my delicate arms
br>
I opened and closed my hand
Even though I can’t gain anything without relying onpurely on this hand……?
……What should I do if bear-san greets me from a bush?
……I can’t do anything at all can I, probably
Meeting is fundaood
It could be called forest bathing or such but, if I enter a real forest there are wild animals and monsters and the like so I worry and it’s not the place for that you know
――Gasa
「――!?」
A presence cah speed from a nearby thicket
My heart rate leapt up
Confir on my back, I exhaled a little
If you’re co come
A parent protecting her child――though I’ co any lifeform
I killedthicket like I’ over it
「――Aah! Alice-san!! This is good nya」
The animal that showed her face from the thicket was unexpectedly――
「Saira!!」
It was my adorable my smith with a cat ear appearance
Saira see a ruck on her back and, came over to my side
「Why is this Saira! Really!? Saira!?」
「Hai desu nya! Nya waa, Alice-san, that tickles」
Meeting a familiar person in a forlorn place, I unintentionally pushed into her
I rushedly fluffed her cat ears
「Nyafuu」
Otto, I ht have played too much
I sat back down properly
「But why in such a place?」
Such a place, but to begin with I don’t knohere this is
「Eh? Alice-san was doing preparations for the journey so, she gave e so I would come to the room nya」
「Eh? I did?」
Saira nodded strongly
Eh?
I ate my meal and then I was sound asleep with Rin-chan and, then I was suddenly in mid-air?
