The destination location was found unexpectedly casual.
But the mont they see it, the Somas will look away in amazent.
Whatever.
"This is more of a village than a town..."
"Hmmm... this is just unexpected"
Yes, I thought it would correspond to the town on a scale. That was clearly the village.
It is the wooden fence that stretches around the periter, and there are only a dozen buildings, even if you just gaze at them.
The population will not be fifty.
"Now, what is it..."
If Soma and the others go over there, they'll be able to say that they're definitely leftovers.
Nothing wrong with that.
So the question is, will you get the information?
In a town, it wouldn't be so strange to have soone trying to get all sorts of information.
But it doesn't matter what you think to imitate that in a place like this.
It was honestly doubtful that you would tell .
"I couldn't help but worry about it. Think about it first, and then try it."
"... you are"
Sohow the results are visible, but I wagered on the possibility that they would, and the two turned to the village.
"And brilliantly annihilated, and... don't even sigh past your expectations."
Town - No, in the corner of the village, Soma looked up to the sky alone.
In conclusion, it was annihilated as I had just whined.
In the anti, I asked the person I noticed about the area from one end to the other, but it was either unclear, unknown, or ignored.
This is not to say that there are no islands to attach, and it may also have sothing to do with the fact that Soma is a child because he sees it.
Well, obviously it's troubleso.
It is natural that I do not want to be involved.
"Hmmm... I don't think the teacher can expect that for this minute..."
By the looks of it, Camilla isn't strange to be seen as a child either...... or it's normal to see that way.
When that happens, it's still likely that they're feeling the sa way over there.
Soma and Camilla were second-hand split to skip ti, but it might have been better together.
Though the result may not have changed because I know that there is trouble at first sight, whether it is one or two children.
Whatever it is, I wonder what's going on.
"... boy, what's wrong with you, though you seem to be calling out to all sorts of people just now?
It was then that I was called out.
Put your gaze down, point it at , and it's an old woman who was there.
To see from the content of the words spoken, he apparently looked at what Soma had been doing.
Nevertheless, in fact, that is not in itself sothing of a surprise.
Because Soma knew that there was an old woman and that she was looking at herself.
I was watching about Soma with a vigilant eye and for that reason I never went from the beginning to ask...... I wasn't expecting to talk to him from the other side, so I'm a little surprised.
But I don't know what you think you're doing, but the fact that you've been talking to probably ans you're a little willing to talk.
I had no hand in missing this chance.
"Um, actually, I had a few errands and had to go that way, but I don't have a sense of geography around here in my life. But there is also the procurent of food, so I wanted to know what was around it..."
"Hmm, I see... is that why people don't try to get involved? Well, I guess so."
"Mm? What does that an?
"Well, it's not a very famous story, so there's no reason not to know... there's a relic over there."
"Ruins...?
Anything. That seems to be an altar that was used hundreds of years ago.
It was a place where so god was being sacrificed.
"... could that be an evil god?
"Oh, that's what I'm talking about. So we don't all try to get close over there, and we don't even try to get involved. 'Cause I don't know what kind of trickery you can put on if you get involved badly."
"Hmm... I see."
An evil god is supposedly a crazy god who descended into this world hundreds of years ago.
They tried to destroy mankind with anything, but on the contrary, they were destroyed by a certain hero.
By the way, it is of course separate from the God that Holy God believes in.
It is their assertion that there was originally a two-pillar God in this world, but only one pillar remained because one pillar went mad.
Well, I don't care about that, but it's actually considered this evil god, the god that the Demons believe in.
Technically with the descendants of its followers... naturally it is also made up.
Rather than, in fact, the order is the opposite.
Because it is more convenient, the Demons believed in the Evil God.
It is in these circumstances that the Demons are called the hostile species of humanity.
However, as can be seen from that, only a few of those who believed in the Evil God from the beginning existed, and they were in a position to be persecuted.
Well, from that doctrine, we will eventually destroy ourselves, of course.
I guess that ans that in every world in every era, there are such people.
Whatever that is, it is not just enough if you are known to believe in evil gods, and it is enough to say that you need to escape at night just because the rumors have arisen, etc.
It was natural not to try to get involved in that relationship, and apparently that was no different among the demons.
And with that in mind, the response of the people of this village was also not convincing.
Think again, there was no one to ignore or offend at the stage of speaking up.
As soon as it mouthed the place, Soma just nodded wondering if that was the case because he was fleeing shittiness just because he didn't want to be involved.
"... by the way, the old lady who found out about it doesn't have to run away?
"Because you're old and short. Hey. There's no need to be frightened of that now."
"Hmmm... that would be a helpful story from my senior year... okay? By the way, from here to there, how long can you get there?
"Right, I'm talking about walking for about a day... I think we should stop it though. There's a lot of demons around there, no evil gods or anything, and I suggest you take a detour?
"I'd like to do that if I could, but that's not how it works."
Probably, that's where it'll hit.
I don't know what you're going to do in a place like that, but now you're trying to do sothing that's not even fair.
"So is there anything like a landmark around the place?
"... was that where you had business?
"There is no certainty, but perhaps so"
That's what she said and nodded at Soma, the old woman stared at her every ti she said sothing, but in the end she had nothing to say.
And the old woman knows about its existence, but she never went, so she doesn't know the details.
Well, then, there's no choice.
"Hmm... by the way, just in case, what else is on that side?
"Yeah? Can I help you with that ruin?
"So just in case, it is. If the place you're looking for wasn't there."
"I see... but close to it, there shouldn't be anything else..."
That being said, the old woman told everything she could think of.
Soma bows her head as she writes it down in the corner of her mory.
"I was thankful to be taught so many things."
"... what, I haven't been taught a big deal, but I wish I could have helped"
"Um, it was enough. By the way, aren't you in any trouble? I will do whatever I can to thank you for everything you have taught . Well, there's not much I can do, and I don't have a lot of hands..."
It's actually zero, on the contrary, but if you ask for sothing financial, you just have to get it from Camilla.
Though I'm not sure this old lady would ever ask for anything like that.
"Trouble, huh?... Nothing like that... oh no, why don't you just listen to for a second?
"Hmm, talk, is it...?
"It's not funny or anything, but hey... I was just hoping soone would ask ."
Honestly, I can't afford much ti.
I don't know how much room I can afford.
I've never been over there as soon as I could... but that's why it would be different to scorn a benefactor.
After a little thought, Soma nods.
"Um, if it's okay with , I don't mind."
"Well, let ask you sothing... about a stupid old man"
That's how the old woman began to tell the story.
"That's right... it was a year and a while ago. We were alone that day."
"Girl, is it"
"This is a place like this, so I knew right away that her daughter ca from sowhere else. Of course, it ans you're in trouble. I guess I should have told you to go sowhere soon... but I don't know why, sohow, I can't abandon you."
"Hmm... By the way, were you outside the old lady?
"Oh, well. My grandfather was with then. Now he's got a bad back, sleeping at ho, but hey. Anyway, so I took that girl ho once..."
They were actually going to let him leave right away.
I was going to give him warm rice and a bunk, and as soon as I let him get enough rest, he was going to let him leave, even as soon as he could.
But the daughter's face didn't get any better the next day.
It wasn't the body, it was the mind that caused it.
So if I told my daughter to leave like that, she'd die sowhere fluffy as it is--
"Though, there was nothing we could have done. I gave him so rice and prepared the bedding. But I didn't know what else to do. I kind of knew there was a situation, but I didn't even think I could do anything from what I heard."
"Hmm... well, you know what I'm talking about"
Or sothing I actually have experience with.
No, Soma never protected that daughter, and that's what she really didn't do... but in the sense that she didn't know what to do, it must have been the sa.
Or maybe if you hadn't walked over from the other side, you'd still be there.
"But my daughter just got a little brighter at one point. I don't know what you said about making friends."
"Hmmm... are you friends"
"Then the girl, little by little, is starting to make smile. We didn't do anything, but I'm not happy about that... We didn't even have kids, but maybe he was interested in watching them at so point, even with his grandchildren."
But still, the shadow didn't disappear from her.
Though the chances of seeing it have diminished, he said he would give a mundane clap, a very lonely, spicy face.
"... but it's a recent story. The girl laughed at ."
"Hmm...? I think he said he was going to smile a little bit?
"Yeah, but that was a real smile from the bottom of my heart. We couldn't do anything, but I knew right away that soone must have saved this girl."
"Hmm..."
"I'm happy about that... I'm really, really not happy about that..."
"... the old lady?
Soma called out because her voice was trembling as she said she was happy.
And if Soma's eyes and ears were normal, it looked like it was not from joy, but from bitterness.
"... the truth is, I knew exactly who she was. But I can't tell you... even in a place like this, I hear a lot of things. But... oh, but... I'm glad... because I thought I was okay... and I said it."
"What is?
"That girl's gonna be okay, 'cause she's gonna do it."
"... Hmm"
That's all I'm saying, that's all I'm talking about.
Nothing. Nobody, nothing's wrong.
But.
Yes, but.
For example, if so girl ran away from so place.
Suppose you didn't know where it was going, but all of a sudden, from sowhere, you heard the word that the girl was okay.
Well.
Isn't that reward synonymous with telling us where we are?
"... I thought you weren't coming ho. So I even thought back about it. So... maybe he's back, and... I miss not telling you, but given the difference in identity, I guess I can't help it, and... I tried to..."
Probably had no basis there.
Or maybe I was just thinking that out of guilt.
Didn't they put you back in an unwanted way or did sothing extra?
Maybe it ca from such regret...... but.
Maybe the mont I saw Soma, I was convinced.
As soon as Soma saw the old woman, she was sohow convinced she would be.
Because Soma heard from her about what kind of person she was taking care of.
Then the old woman, too, was just asking what her friend was like, and nothing strange happened.
That must have been the first thing I was wary of about Soma.
"... Well, after all this crap you've heard, I'm sorry"
"Hmm? What is it?
"Just one more thing, why don't you do a favor?
"Hmmm... depending on the content?
"Well, let just say..."
So the old woman, once she stopped the words, stared straight into Soma's eyes.
And deep, deep, head down.
"... would you tell that girl? I'm sorry... that's all."
How much the old won regretted it.
Soma doesn't know more than that's been put into words, and maybe even if it was put into words, it would have been the sa thing.
But part of it, it did feel.
Hiccups, their words, their attitudes.
"Hmm... you say no"
That's why I said no.
"... eh. Ha ha... no, you are. That's too convenient. I'm sorry, after all the crap I told you, every crap I asked for..."
To the old woman with her head down, Soma shrugged her shoulders.
Watch that shoulder tremble and turn your back.
I got the information I needed, and I owed you back.
Well, then...
"Aina will definitely be brought back by my seniors, but it is good for us to convey the words ourselves. There will be other things to say, and Aina will be the sa."
"- Beco!?
With the old woman's surprise voice behind her back, I perceived from the signs that she had raised her head, but Soma would never look back.
Turn behind your back and just wave your hands flickering, leaving as you go.
To be honest, I had a lot to ask, and that would probably be the sa over there.
But all you have to do is take your ti and relax after everything is done.
I don't know if there will be such an opportunity.
For now, the certainty is that one more reason I have to bring Aina back.
That is all.
With that in mind, Soma walked early enough to the planned rendezvous point with Camilla.
