　Why don't the elves tell us their names? Or is it that they dare not show them? Are they just forgetting to tell us their names?　Or does it mean they don't dare to tell us their names?　Does it mean something that they dare not tell us their names?

　If we wait a little longer, will they tell us their names? Is it okay to ask their names? I don't think we should be forced to ask something we don't want to be asked.

　I was thinking about that.

　After a good night's sleep, in the morning, the lady elf who lets me and Ran live there brought us breakfast. It was full of plants I had never seen before. There was no meat, but I guess elves don't eat meat. I wondered if elves don't eat meat. I thought they were different from the beastmen in that respect.

She said, "To help you get used to life in the elven village, you will first spend some time with me. After you eat breakfast, come outside the house.

　With that, he left the breakfast and went out.

"...... Hey, Mr. Lang.

What's wrong?"

You never told me your name.

I don't think I have to tell you my name, do I? Do you think it is unnecessary to tell me your name? It is possible that perhaps there is no such thing as individual names for the elves, but we have had good names for elves in past literature. ...... Perhaps it's not that they don't have names.

Why don't they tell us their names?"

Maybe they are welcoming, but don't want to be friends, or something like that.

　'I welcome you but I don't want to be friends with you. I can't even begin to figure out what that means. If they are welcoming me, I wish they would befriend me. I don't want to befriend them, but what is the point of welcoming them?

Maybe the elves have their own circumstances, but even so, I am certain that there are still many unnatural aspects to them."

　We had our breakfast in our mouths while having such a conversation. This soup is delicious. I have never tasted anything like it. There may be a taste that has been passed down in the elves. It was ...... delicious. Lemma was crazy about it and ate the soup, saying it was delicious and tasty. It seems to be a taste favored by griffons as well.

　After we finished eating, Lan and I went outside the house as the lady elf told us to. The house is on top of a tree, so I was surprised at how nice the view was when I opened the door. When I was led to this house, I didn't turn around, so this was the first time I knew I could see so much down all around. Oh, I could see Gaius. I waved to Gaius and he waved back at me from down below.

Let's go down first.

　The female elf said and used a ladder to go down from the top of the tree. Ran and I followed her. Lema was flying down. The tree is quite tall, so I was a little worried that I might fall. We descended slowly and carefully.

'I will show you around the village.'

　The female elf says so nonchalantly and walks ahead. I guess it is because we didn't have that much time yesterday that she is showing us around today. I was relieved to see Nilsi and the Shinomis. I was glad to see that everyone seemed to be in good health.

　The houses in the elven village are built on trees, which I first thought was very strange yesterday, but I also thought there were many things that were different from those in the beastmen's and human villages.

　They grow plants that I have never seen before. The fields are on the ground, not on trees. But there were fences to keep the demons out. There was also a distinctive building. A church?　A church or something like that. It was a huge building supported by several trees. It was a big building that looked like it was on top of overlapping branches. I didn't notice it yesterday because it was at the back of the village, but it was a great building.

This is a place to offer prayers to the spirits. We don't intend to force you to do anything in particular.

　That was all she explained. This female elf had little to say. Maybe this female elf is the only one who is not good at speaking and doesn't say her name or something. I'll have to ask ...... if everyone else has been told her name.

'Elves are really involved with spirits, aren't they?

Yes."

　The elf woman didn't seem to want to continue talking any further at Lan's words. A big, big church. A place to offer prayers to the spirits, built on top of a tree.

　I thought that the elves really have a deep connection with the existence of "spirits. The elven woman stared at the church. What are you thinking about?　After looking at the church for a little while, the woman showed us around the other places in an unobtrusive manner.

　With that, half the day passed.

　There was no meat for lunch, either. I wondered if they were a species that did not eat meat. I asked the female elf if we could have lunch together, but she refused.

　I thought that if we ate together, we could become friends. I wondered if they would eat dinner with me someday. With this thought in mind, I had dinner with Lemma and Mr. Lan.

　And in the afternoon, they asked me to help them collect medicinal herbs in the herb garden in the village.

　(The girl, who is probably a godchild, was shown around the village and was to help with the gathering of medicinal herbs in the herb garden. As usual, we are not told their names)
