"It's time for you to wake up. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

When Monia opened her eyes in a daze, a slightly familiar voice came from her ears, but her mind was still a mess, and she couldn't remember who it was for a while—but, warmly, the voice gave her a very warm feeling—no doubt someone close to her.

Who will it be?

Monia didn't know, she just subconsciously hugged each other tightly, and then leaned on a soft place and slept peacefully.

"It's really ......," the other party let out a helpless sigh, and then raised his voice, "Cute little one." ”

Then stroking, stroking.

Although this feeling is strange, it is unexpectedly very comfortable - Monia, who is half asleep and half awake, smiles beautifully, enjoys the other's petting like a kitten, and occasionally changes her sleeping position, rubbing it on and twice.

"This kind of carefree sleeping face is really enviable."

The owner of the voice, the ruler of the Elven Forest, the archmage Mo Ya looked at the peaceful and tranquil face of the little mage after falling asleep, and couldn't help but reach out and tease the girl in his arms, watching her make all kinds of delicate voices, constantly changing facial expressions, the original serious face because of the intruder gradually relaxed, and finally bloomed into a smile as delicate as a rose, a smile that really came from the heart.

"It's really ......" After a long time, Mo Ya realized the change in himself, and couldn't help but sigh, "The happiness I haven't seen for a long time." ”

Yes, long-lost happiness.

Since "he" died, it seems that it has been a long, long time since such a relaxed and happy time. If she could, she didn't want to have an eternal face, nor did she care if she had the power to stand at the top of the world, she just wanted her to grow old with her beloved like an ordinary woman, and accompany him for a lifetime, never separated.

But alas......

She has no right to choose, and her birth is both a gift from fate and a shackle from fate.

"Sistahl ......"

The Elven Archmage said in an almost dreamlike tone, and then there was a long silence, in the vast forest, only the breeze caressed her long black hair, and only the eternal starlight shining in the dark night.

"Originally, I thought that only this eternal star would be by my side as always." Looking up at the infinite starry sky, Moya sighed, and his tone was quiet, "But it wasn't until I came to this forest that I finally knew ......"

She shifted her gaze to the little mage, revealing a complicated expression.

"I'm not alone."

When she said this, her tone returned to calm, but anyone can imagine what turbulent emotions were hidden under her calm words.

It took a long time for her to calm down the complex emotions surging in her heart, and looking at the little mage who was still sleeping soundly, she couldn't help but poke her again: "What happiness, little Monia...... You don't have to go through the pain I went through...... You're lucky because you've met me; I'm also lucky because I met you. ”

"Maybe this is what fate has given us."

She said this, holding the little mage in her arms, showing a gentle smile, and softly humming an unknown ballad.

Walk towards the Ancient Tree of Knowledge.

―――――――――――― forced to be helpless to divide the line――――――――――――

Esvetta was apprehensive right now.

She was slightly agitated in the center of the Ancient Tree of Knowledge...... Walk around.

There is no doubt that she has a big deal - the ancient tree of knowledge can be said to be the last means of the elves to inherit civilization, and it is the retreat of the elves to fail to restore the country - on the eve of the restoration, the ancient tree of knowledge was invaded, and as the rotating manager of the ancient tree, she was not able to maintain a smooth connection at that time, let alone fighting, even the will of the ancient tree could not maintain a smooth connection.

There is no doubt that this would be attributed to her dereliction of duty.

And dereliction of duty means ......

She thought to herself that she would lose her job, that she would be far away from the Ancient Tree of Knowledge, that she would be far away from this sea of books—an unacceptable result for her, for the bookworm girl named Esveta, and an unbearable pain in her life. She couldn't even imagine what hell it would be to have no books to read.

-- She can't give up this job no matter what.

- Anyway!

The elven girl's eyes shone with an astonishing brilliance, and the resoluteness between her brows would move even the veterans who had survived a hundred battles on the battlefield - it was a determination that must be done no matter what, it was the consciousness that even the best warriors had to achieve their goals, and that was a noble will that even the best warriors did not necessarily possess - but it was a pity that this will was used in the wrong place by her.

Once you have the will to act, it is natural to draw up a plan for action. But unfortunately, the plan was still brewing in her mind, and far before it could take shape, Lord Moya, the owner of the Elven Tower and the president of the Mage Association, had already pushed open the door of the Ancient Tree of Knowledge and walked to her side.

"Moya-sama......"

She bowed in fear, forgetting for a moment that the organization's words shirked responsibility.

"Don't panic, mage." The elven archmage was better than expected, and did not hold her accountable immediately, but instead said, "Raise your head, you have not done anything wrong, it is indeed not an enemy you can deal with, you can recognize the situation at a critical moment and notify me in time, it is your credit rather than your responsibility." ”

Happiness came so suddenly that Esveta opened her mouth and forgot what she was about to say.

"But," the elven archmage changed her words as she smirked, causing her heart to return to her throat for a moment, she swallowed a mouthful of saliva and then waited for the judgment of fate, "You still have to go with me, there are many questions I still want to ask you in person." ”

"Yes." Knowing that it was not the worst possible Esveta straightened her back, spoke forcefully, and returned the salute.

"Alright, let's go." The elven archmage approached, took her hand, and ......

"Ahh

Extremely abrupt, the bizarre world came rushing towards you.

Heaven and earth are turned upside down.

―――――――――――― forced to be helpless to divide the line――――――――――――

Monia woke up, this time she really woke up.

Although there was still a feeling of tiredness rolling under her nose, this time the mage's consciousness remained at least awake - she blinked her eyes first, then into the dazzling light, and then the picture gradually became clear, and she saw ...... No, no, it's a shame!

She tilted her head and looked away, and when she saw the face of the person holding her, she couldn't help but let out an exclamation.

"What's wrong? Little Monia. The elven archmage asked in some surprise, as if he didn't think there was anything wrong.

"No," Monia forced herself to keep her composure, trying not to show her flaws in front of this horrible fellow, to keep her from discovering that she was afraid of the facts, "nothing. ”

After a slight pause, she added, "I'm fine, can you let me go on my own?" It's a little ......."

She didn't continue, but the elven archmage understood what she meant, and rarely put her down with empathy—on the contrary, her performance was rather bad, and she lost her strength for a moment when she landed, and she stumbled a step—if it wasn't for the archmage helping her in time, she would have fallen to the ground.

"Thank you, Lord Moya." Monia said, bowing and saluting.

The elven archmage just nodded at this, and did not speak.

Monia is a little unaccustomed to such an elven archmage, but it is good that she can be so "reserved" - she is not a magical creature named Shake M in the memory of her previous life, and it will be pleasant to be **. So after only a moment's hesitation, she looked away from the other person and looked at her surroundings.

"This is the Mage Tower?" Monia looked around for a week, and then her gaze rested on the other person next to the elven archmage - of course she was impressed by this strange bookworm girl, but she had not made much noise before, and she had been standing behind the archmage, and she could not see her presence at all. "Esveta?"

"Huh?" The elf girl didn't react at all, and only after a rather cute response did she come back to her senses, blushing slightly, and asked in a voice like a mosquito, "Monia...... What did you just say? ”

"Hmm......" The mage was a little speechless, but repeated after a short pause, "Is this the Mage Tower?" ”

"It should be." Esveta replied, "I don't know exactly if it's or not - I stayed in the Ancient Tree of Knowledge until Lord Moya took me on a space jump with you sleeping in his arms, and the destination was here - I had just woken up not long ago, and the feeling of space travel was completely different from what was written in the book, and there was no romance at all. ”

Monia knew that her "book" was referring to fiction and didn't feel a fuss, just shrugged her shoulders and skimmed the topic. On the contrary, the elven archmage frowned slightly: "Space is an extremely complex dynamic model, much more difficult to master than the most complicated spell model, and it has nothing to do with romance...... And this is indeed the Mage Tower, but the top floor, the center of the Mage Tower...... Follow me. ”

The Archmage led the way, and Monia and Esveta naturally had to follow. This journey was not long, about a few dozen breaths, and the group of three came to the room where the control center of the mage tower was located unimpeded, Moya stopped for the first time, silently chanted a spell in a completely unfamiliar language, and then "boom", the heavy door gradually moved to the sides, revealing a small door that could only be passed by one person.

"Let's go, let's talk about what happened tonight."

The elven archmage spoke, leading the way into the room.

Monia hesitated slightly, but followed...... However, when she saw what was behind the door, she couldn't help but exclaim.

This...... What the hell is going on!?
