As I have said before, this world, where the forest of witches exists, is a very exclusive and closed world.

Spatially isolated from the outside world, a sealed world.

A place to isolate and seal and manage beings that are dangerous to leave alone in the outside world, but cannot or sparingly kill.

That’s where it was.

No, or maybe you can’t call it the world or something.

Is it inherently right to call it a simple, closed space?

But anyway, I’m only sure this place is closed.

And that’s why, if you let it go there without anything, the normal will die in days.

The reason for this is simply that we cannot feed ourselves.

Maybe there are weeds and mushrooms that can be eaten, but eating it is not much different from suicide than there are many that are poisonous.

Because an animal exists, it is possible to take meat from it… an animal is called a demon.

Before you take the meat, you’ll be the one to feed yourself.

That’s why food is brought there once a month.

If I were to starve him to death, I would have killed him from the beginning, so it’s natural.

Whatever.

The handover location is about a foot away from the log house.

The Demon Avoidance junction is a place where the junction is stretched around the log house, but just where its junction breaks.

This means that if you take even a step outside from there, you are in danger of being attacked by demons, but Felicia, standing in a critical place on that border, has no color of tension or anxiety.

But that’s natural, too.

Sometimes I’m used to it… but most importantly, there’s nothing in the literal sense of the word, as opposed to demons.

In other words, it was a place that was the edge of the junction, but also the edge of the world.

The pitch black that is spreading there is like anxiety when you look at it, but this is also something you are used to at once.

Jizz on the spot, Felicia looked at it… unexpectedly, at the end of its gaze, there was a change in the space where nothing was supposed to be.

The space rippled, albeit slightly.

Furthermore, the change will continue, but also become more pronounced.

The space is clearly distorted – it happened at the next moment.

There was nothing there, and if you were aware of it, there would have appeared a forest similar to your place.

And at the same time, there was one person there.

There is probably no one in this world who doesn’t know what it is.

Golden hair, golden eyes.

Among the many colors, there is only one species allowed to wrap it around.

It was an elf.

“You’re as accurate in time as ever”

“Hmm, naturally. I’m still busy with this. If this is delayed, it will only affect other things for that matter. So let’s just get this over with. This is it for this one.”

That’s what the elf man – Joseph threw at me, it was one bag.

It’s not that big, but enough that even Felicia can afford to hold it.

You won’t even need to hold it.

If anyone sees it for the first time, they might wonder what it is.

In fact, that’s what Felicia thought in the first place.

I heard it was for a month’s worth of food, and I said where do you get into all this?

Of course I don’t think so now.

“Okay. Thank you for everything.”

“… I should always say you don’t need any thanks. This is a contract, and we’re only paying for it.”

“Still, it is. For there is no substitute for you that I may live in this way.”

“… Huh. Well, I hope you like it. That’s not what I found out. Give me that one faster than that.”

“Yes, this way”

So what Felicia offered was the same bag that was thrown now…… no, it was the same thing in fact.

There are several witchcrafted medicines in there.

Because this is the contract and the consideration.

Instead of giving them food, I give them the witch’s medicine.

Felicia and I have a deal for that.

Most importantly, I said a contract, and it’s not much different than just a promise.

Although I prepared the contract, I did not use my skills, because there is no binding or enforceable force there.

Still, Felicia and the others were disciplined to keep it.

At least it meant something to Felicia.

Now it was only one connection to them that was left behind, and most importantly, maybe because of it, Felicia is getting proper food this way.

I can’t read a witch’s book, and even Felicia, who should be called a witch’s failure, is allowed to live.

In fact, shortly after the death of his predecessors, he had been reduced in food on account of it.

I only had about half of it for a month.

Even if I didn’t starve to death, that was really just it.

But this deal with Joseph made it better all at once.

While I say January, this time about twice as much will be given to me.

It was because of what Soma was capable of.

That probably has nothing to do with Joseph starting to use that bag to give him food.

Felicia gave it to me, and they’re magic guides, and the inner space is being expanded.

Packing the food for February is so large that it cannot be seen from the outside.

Also, the medicine that Felicia is giving you is something that historical witches have been making and saving.

He managed to pay the price by cutting it down a little bit.

It was time for the rest of that to stop forgiving me… but thanks to Soma it seemed like I could handle it.

On the contrary, if I can understand that contents properly, I might be able to move officially as a witch.

The original witch takes the spell for a price and is kept alive.

Although Felicia could also use the spell once, she could not work the exact aid because she could not read the Book of Witches, and its effects were lacking.

Instead, he was offering medication… but now.

Most of all, it would break just one connection left… but that’s normal.

Even though that’s possible, you can’t be any sweeter.

And while I was thinking about it, Joseph looked up, checking the contents of the bag.

“Sure, I confirmed. So…”

“Oh, I’m sorry, I just wanted to confirm one thing, okay?

“… what? Keep it short. Like I said, I’m busy.”

“I know. Um… I just ask this out of curiosity, what happens to someone irrelevant to this space if they get lost?

“… what is that? I don’t know what that means.

“So it’s just curiosity. Speaking of which, I wondered what would happen if that happened.”

“Hmm… I see, I have plenty of time, so you’re also thinking about that extra thing? Damn, I’m so proud of you…”

With that said, Joseph frowned when he put his arms together.

Apparently, he’ll take it seriously for once.

… That was about Soma, of course, but it makes sense to ask that on purpose.

Because…

“Right…… well definitely going to be in custody. Depending on the circumstances, there is also the possibility of beheading on the spot”

“Beheading……!? What… is that like doing that?

“That’s it. I just thought I understood something called my position to some extent… but, hey, you didn’t seem to understand enough about that yet. We have to avoid knowing you’re here. If the average person, of course, was in a certain position, they would definitely do so first.”

“Oh, really…”

Felicia was inside cold sweating that Soma was right.

Yes, I heard that because Soma pointed it out that way.

I knew Soma would be back that way today, so that was totally unexpected.

But I know the concern was right… and I wonder what happened.

This is because Soma can’t go back.

Well, I still don’t understand the book of witches at all, so it’s honestly helpful to have a soma who can read it.

“… yes, it involves our entire elf. So…”

“… Oh, you know what?

At some point the way he was squealing about something leaning down, there was something somewhat impatient about it.

Just a little bit of fear there and my spine trembles.

But the moment I looked up, the signs were misty, and Joseph was there as usual.

“That’s what I’m talking about. Is the question clear?

“Yes…… thank you”

“Well, whatever it is, it doesn’t happen. Whatever means you use, it’s impossible to break in here where the world is closed.”

“… Really?”

Then Soma, I suppose, reminds me of yesterday, with that question.

… I just thought that maybe soma wouldn’t be strange to have.

“So, there’s nothing else? I’m coming.”

“Ah… yes”

At that time, I remembered that Soma had eaten something other than fruit, but it would be strange to say that I wanted something else now.

Just for a little while, Felicia was beginning to think I could cook again too… but shut up and the word swallows.

“See you next month”

“… Huh…. Right. Yeah, I’ll see you next month,”

So Felicia was surprised because she had never returned it that way.

Until now, it’s just walking away without saying anything… but as I look at the back directed at me, the space starts to shake.

It rippled hard in an instant… eventually so easily that everything disappeared.

All that’s left is a pitch-black space.

“Hmm… that was interesting inside.”

“-!?

My thoughtful shoulders trembled at the voice I heard instantly.

Looking back reflexively, what was right behind me was the figure of Soma standing with a natural face.

“What… So, Mr. Soma…? Why are you here…?

“No, the curiosity couldn’t be suppressed, and he was watching secretly”

“Mi, what were you going to do if they found you……!?

“It was then, and I was confident that I would not find it. I didn’t actually find it.”

“That’s just a theory of results…… ha”

That’s all I said, I got ridiculous about something and exhaled a sigh of sigh instead of words.

Though it’s certainly only a theory of results, it was oddly convincing when Soma said it, for one reason.

“Does that mean you heard us, too?

“Um, I heard it from the beginning.”

“It’s not a compliment, so I think it’s wrong to put your chest up there…… okay. So you don’t have to report it, do you?

“That’s what I’m talking about. And my concerns were at stake.”

“Right… about that, the… I’m sorry I didn’t think enough”

“No, you don’t have to worry about it. About half of it was actually a lie. You’re right. I’m a little surprised.”

“… Yes?

What does deception mean?

I should have spoken with confidence yesterday.

“The Book of Witches is still interesting. I didn’t intend to leave this place yet. I tried to improvise the pre-construction for it. Maybe I could push it through if I wanted to.”

“…………… you are”

I lost all my strength at once and breathed out a thoughtful sigh.

Then I glanced at him, but he didn’t look as if he was in front of me.

“Once again, please do me a favor for a while.”

“… ha. Well, that’s right. It’s true that you’re being helped and… Thanks again for a while”

I look at her snort, but it still doesn’t make sense… somehow, a bitter smile comes to mind.

I couldn’t even imagine it until just two weeks ago, but apparently these routines will continue again for a while.

To that, I breathed out my breath small… and then turned around.

Because I still wondered what he looked like when he left.

“What’s wrong?

“… no, it’s nothing. Well, let’s go home.”

“That’s right. Oh, I’ll have that, won’t I?

“Really? It’s not even heavy…… well, it’s a corner, thank you”

Still, it’s something I can’t care less about already.

So when we kicked that man’s – blood-sharing brother out of his back of his brain, he and Soma headed to their house and walked out.
