Allen and Noel were walking through the city, which was still busy as ever.
　I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about this in the future.

　I'm sure that Allen is certainly not wearing ...... or any kind of protective gear, but Noel is also much the same.
　It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for when you're in the market.
　I know that Noel has the ability to do this, but...

"What are you staring at?　Do I have something on my face?
I don't know how you can be dressed like that when you're going to go to the forest, ......
"I don't want you to tell me how to dress?　Leeds also looks light, but that's a super luxury item with multiple layers of protective wards, right?　Well, his lack of fighting ability won't help him if he's surrounded by them. ...... But it's really just clothes you're wearing, isn't it?
Sort of.

　When I was banished from my home, I couldn't bring my armor with me, or rather, I didn't have it, and I didn't have the means to get it until I came to this city.
　You can get them in this city if you wanted to, but since you didn't feel the need for them, you didn't really need them, so you've been wearing them in your everyday clothes for a long time.

It's a good idea to be able to have a good idea of what you're looking for and what you're looking for. It's just that I don't wear protective gear because I don't need it. It's not that you need this breastplate, but it's only because Leeds and others insist on some kind of protective gear. I think my fellow elves would laugh at me if they saw me wearing protective gear in the forest: ...... I've never met one.
I know people say you shouldn't fight with elves in the forest or that elves are not lost in the forest, but that doesn't mean they are limited to the forest where they live, does it?
I don't know about the other elves, but at least I can move three times faster than usual in that forest, right?

　I'm not sure how they can move so quickly, but I shrugged my shoulders because there is no way they would understand me when I said that.

　It's not just a matter of how many times you'll be able to get your hands on it, it's also a matter of how many times you'll be able to get your hands on it.
　It's not just a matter of how much time you spend with them.
　This is said to be the reason for their aptitude for magic and their ability to adapt to the forest, and indeed there was something that seemed to be based on it.

　That is, the lifespan of the elves is much longer than that of human species.
　The human race is said to have a lifespan of about three hundred years, no matter how much magic they use to extend it, while the elves have a lifespan of over a thousand years.
　The high elves, also known as elven royalty, are said to have an even longer lifespan.

...... Speaking of which, how old is Noel?
"How rude. Well, I don't really care about it. ......
"No, I thought you were our age, but now that I think about it, elves grow up so slowly.
Oh, I've heard that the longevity of life expectancy is about ten times as long as that of human species in terms of childhood.
"Listen, does that mean ......?
Yes, as you may have guessed, at least as far as I remember, my childhood wasn't much different from that of our species. As long as the time where I lived was not distorted and moving too fast.
If that were the case, it would be a great discovery.

　But then, what does that mean?
　I'm wondering if they are a mix of human and human, so-called half-elves, although I've heard that their lifespans are much closer to human, but even so, they have about five hundred years or so, and their childhoods are also reasonably long.

　If the blood of the elves fades, their lifespan will be even closer to the human race, but in that case, their appearance should also be closer to the human race.
　It's a good idea to have the ears of Noel to be able to identify him as an elf at a glance, and he has the characteristics of an elf: ......

　--It's not just a matter of how much time you have left.

　It's not just a matter of how much time you have left on the clock.
　If so, whether she is a pure-blooded elf or not, at least her nature should be as close to an elf as possible.

　Allen's omniscience power is the power to recognize all the information that exists in the world.
　Its power is invisible if you wish it to be, and its power is not unknown if you wish it to be.
　By deriving from the past and the present, not to mention the past and the present, you will be able to see even the future.

　Although it is limited in its function by Allen's perception, its essence is unchanged.
　The information obtained by omniscience is how the world perceives it, even if you use other powers.
　In short, the visible information itself is not distorted by Aren's perception.

　That's also why Noel's race is seen as a forest spirit species.
　Their race name is "forest spirit," and "elf" is a slang term.
　Because it was named by mankind, no matter how many people call them elves or even if the name "forest spirit" is forgotten, the world will continue to recognize them as forest spirits and all knowledge will not give them any other name.
　This also means that Noel is the kind of being the world would recognize as a forest spirit species.

　But then we ended up talking about how to explain Noel's childhood ...... and that's when Allen stopped thinking.
　I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about it.

　It's not that Noel was troubled or even asked for advice, but I don't know what it was.
　I don't know what it is, but I'm sure there's a reason for it, and that's all I need to know.

"Oh?　This is an oddity, isn't it?

　I turned my gaze to a voice that I suddenly heard.

　It came from in front of me, and for a moment I wondered who it was, though I knew it sounded familiar, but it was really only for a moment.
　It was a moment, really, because as soon as I saw the hat, I was convinced.

　He turned to the seemingly gentleman and shrugged his shoulders.

This is a big but limited place. It's not uncommon to see each other if you just walk down the street at random, right?
Well, now that I think about it, that's certainly true. No, I'm sorry, I haven't seen you in ten days or so.
Well, even though it's not unusual, if the time of day we're walking doesn't coincide, we wouldn't be in the first place.
"...... What, you know him?　If you have something to talk about, though, I'm ahead of you?
Oh, no, I'd say I know ......, but it's just that I've talked to them briefly before.
"Well ...... no, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to disturb you, but ......

　It's not so much a distraction as it is a surprise to me .......
　It's a good idea to be able to have a good idea of what you're looking for, but you'll need to know that you're not going to be able to get a good idea of what you're looking for.

　You will be surprised to hear from someone you were not expecting to hear from, and even Allen was surprised to hear from someone you were not expecting.

Now then, I guess I'll leave before I get any more in the way.
"Oh, my God, are you sure?　I didn't mean to rush you. ......
"No, I'm sure I'm in your way. I don't really have any business with you. Well, maybe if we have another opportunity.



　Then the man bowed his head and really went away.
　The girl of Amazoness walked silently after him, somehow watching him.

　Noel followed her back with his gaze as well, but there was an indescribable expression on his face.

...... What a strange person you know!
Well, they are an odd lot, aren't they?

　There is no denying the fact that it's a good outfit.
　I was wondering if it's not strange to be dressed like that in this town, but I guess that wasn't the case.

Anyway, let's head for the woods. We'll feel bad for Leeds and the others if we don't take it seriously.

　The reason why Leeds and the others are not with them is that Allen is going to the forest as usual, and the girls are also going to do what they always do, which is to continue the investigation in the city.
　In short, they will continue their investigation in the city.

　Indeed, Allen said that it was okay to go to the forest, but since they are not going to investigate, today is a good day, but the girls seem to be distressed that they have no clue about the investigation they should be conducting.
　It's not too much of a problem to know where to get the information, because there is a half luck factor involved. ...... Well, if that makes you feel better, there's no problem in letting them do it, if that makes you feel better.

　I'm sure the atmosphere of the city is changing little by little, even just by walking around like this.
　It's no wonder that today is the day you got something.

By the way, you guys are looking for suspicious people, right?

　And, unexpectedly asked such a question by Noel, Allen tilted his head.
　It's a good thing that you're a resident of this city, so you've heard and talked about some things.
　As a result of Leeds and the others decided that Noel would not have a problem with it, and as a result, he told them about the area around the general's assassination, and Noel seems to have interpreted it that way.

　That's certainly true, but--

That's a shameless way to say it: ......
What's the point, isn't it obvious?　So, though, if you're going to be ...... suspicious, I think that person was very suspicious, right?
"Oh, well, that's true too: ......

　I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to hold the decisive moment or not, but as expected, I can't just slash at him just because he's suspicious.
　If you smile bitterly, you look backwards.
　You'll be able to see it in the distance.












　The man stops in the crowd and looks back.
　He squinted his eyes as if to gaze into a place that had been completely lost in the crowd.

I'm sure you've noticed that ...... has been sniffing around, but there was no particular reaction to ....... Now ...... what's going on?

　The man who stopped, was not paying attention to his surroundings, as if he was concentrating on his thoughts.

　It's a part of the city.
　Normally, you would have bumped into someone ...... but strangely enough, no one bumped into his body.

　It's not just a matter of time before you get to the point where you'll be able to get your hands on a new one.

I'm not sure if I should rely on you for help here.　Whatever the purpose (・・・・・・), it's most certainly going to be.

　The words, or the look, make the girl tense up for a moment, but it's really only for a moment.
　The man nodded one, as if satisfied with it never even appearing on his face.

Well, I don't think you need to worry about it ...... but we should still be sure. I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about the fact that you're not the only one who has a problem with this, but I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about the fact that you're not the only one who has a problem with this.

　With those words, the man walks off with a smile on his lips.
　The girl also followed silently, and just like that the two figures disappeared as if lost in the wind.
