58 – Light Green Dream (4)

When the long-awaited flowering of the spiritual eyes was completed, I became even more excited and went around every day to see the spirits.

And as each day passed, the number of spirits flocking around me increased day by day, wondering if there was some kind of means of communication between them.

They all had the appearance of a fluffy cotton ball, but what was unique was that their sizes were slightly different, and even though they were spirits of the same attribute, their saturation was slightly different.

My only regret is that I have no idea how on earth I can receive their power and make it my own.

Judging by his reaction, it seems clear that he understands what I am saying.

Enchanting spirits was treated as a type of superpower.

And since the possessor of this ability said that he could realize that ability without learning, I vaguely wondered if I would become like that too, but even after a lot of time, there was no sign of that at all.

Apparently, mine wasn’t innate, but my ability was developed through an expedient, so I wonder if it’s somehow different from a proper superpower.

The academy’s library has a vast amount of books, so I searched for several days with the help of Efania, hoping that there might be an answer there, but I couldn’t find the book I was looking for.

Still, once the eyes bloom, they don’t disappear anywhere, so there’s no need to worry too much about it yet.

You never know, if you continue like this and become closer at some point, you might realize something at that moment.

With that in mind, I was spending time with spirits every day, but today, in addition to the cotton balls, other strange-looking beings came to visit me.

Around me, fairies with small bodies the size of little fingers and the wings of butterflies were circling around me, making fluttering sounds.

The fairies stick out their noses at me and sniff me, then suddenly laugh and repeat the action.

Sniff, laugh, smell, laugh. Why are you doing this?

Now that I think about it, the name of the elixir I took in the Demon World is Fairy Elixir. Is that scent still ingrained in my body? Is that why you treat me so friendly?

The fairies repeated the same action for a while, and at some point they started pulling my hand and making gestures as if they were trying to take me somewhere.

And as the fairies grabbed my finger, a shape like a shining path began to shimmer deep in the forest before my eyes.

The moment I was about to take a step, I wondered if there was something he wanted to show me. Suddenly a thought pops into my head. Oh well, shouldn’t you normally follow in situations like this?

I think there was a saying that if you follow something like this, you’ll get lost or wander somewhere.

At the moment I was about to turn around, I was pushed by someone who jumped out of nowhere and staggered to the side as it was.

“No!! If a person goes down the path of a fairy, he might get lost in the underworld and never come back!!”

Fortunately, I managed to balance right away and avoid falling, but when I let go of the fairy’s hand, the shape like a shining path shattered and disappeared into the air.

And when the path disappeared, the fairies wept and gradually disappeared into the air, becoming translucent. Maybe they thought I had declined their invitation.

This is why monsters are so scary. The fairy is clearly a gentle species and did not intend to cause harm, but from the perspective of the person being harmed, the act comes across as a disaster.

“I almost got into big trouble… Hey, are you okay? Are you feeling dazed or have a headache?”

When I heard a voice talking to me from next to me, I turned my head and looked that way.

There, a female student wearing a school uniform can be seen leaning on her knees and breathing heavily.

The female student had a quite unique appearance.

Light green hair, like blades of grass, and eyes of the same color. And the combination of white skin, like a sheet of paper, gives the viewer a very mysterious impression.

It was clearly disheveled, but it had such great destructive power that even the sight of it exhaling and calming down felt beautiful.

It feels as if the fairy has grown to human size.

However, my mind was filled with shock and astonishment when I saw that female student.

People here have so many different hair and iris colors, so it’s not surprising that there are people with light green hair and eyes.

However, if such a person is a student at the academy, a woman, and even has knowledge of fairies…

I took a deep breath, calmed myself down, and spoke to the girl in a slightly trembling voice.

“…What is your name?”

“hehehe, are you already asking my name? I’m Eugenia! If it’s too long, you can just skip it! But you… ah! Wait, where are you going!”

‘?’

The moment I heard the girl’s name, my body went ahead of my consciousness and started running down the mountain on its own.

right. Definitely right.

It’s obviously Eugenia, the main character of the original work and the spirit of the main character’s party.

A heroine who was born in the same village as Eugene, grew up together for over ten years, and was with him at the academy and even after graduation.

Even the name Eugenia was given the same meaning as Eugene by the village elders.

While running, I looked back and saw that she had tripped over a rock and fell, kneeling down, staring endlessly in this direction.

I kept running until I reached the bottom of the mountain, and now she was just a tiny bit away.

Does that make sense? Does this really make sense?

Even as I was running, my mouth kept spewing out laughter.

This is a place I found after many searches.

This place is a particularly remote place even within the vast academy grounds, and is the polar opposite of the mountain behind the main building where Eugenia mainly stayed and trained in the original work.

Of course I knew of her existence, but I also needed to improve my abilities, so after much deliberation, I chose this place. Why and how did Eugenia come here?

Fortunately, I was wearing glasses just in case something like this happened. I was just writing this just in case, but I never thought it would be this helpful. You may have heard my name, but you may not know my face… for a moment.

Suddenly feeling emptiness around my eyes, I stopped running and raised my hand to touch the area around my eyes.

… does not exist. I don’t have glasses. I’m sure I was using it well until now.

Did you happen to get caught on a tree branch while rushing down and fall?

It’s a big deal. Those glasses are an item with considerable utility. Without it, it would be quite difficult not only to meet Ellie, but also to plan things that require secrecy.

“ha…”

If there is a god of fate here, it is clear that he hates me very much.

***

After a night of deliberation, I finally decided to go get my glasses again.

I’m not sure if it’s still there or not, but I have to at least look for it.

I was focused on my glasses all day today, and Ellie looked at me with something suspicious.

And as soon as the bell rang for the last lecture and I said goodbye to Ellie, I headed back towards the mountainous area that I had used as my training location.

I came down to a place where there was no road, so there were still traces of broken tree branches and long reeds lying along the path. I traced that place and went back up, retracing yesterday’s path.

And when I got about halfway up the mountain, a sparkling light began to shine in the distance.

The glasses I had been looking for were waiting for their owner, hanging on a tree branch by their nose pads.

“Ha…I’m glad.”

I was worried a lot that I might lose it forever, but that doesn’t seem to be the case anymore.

I let out a sigh of relief, took a moment to catch my breath, and moved towards the glasses.

I checked to see if it was broken or not, but luckily there doesn’t seem to be any.

I carefully picked up my glasses, put them in the inside pocket of my overcoat, and turned around.

At that moment, a woman’s voice, as if she had heard it somewhere, resonates resoundingly in the mountains.

“Now! Tie up!!”

And as soon as I heard the voice, a glowing string flew out of the air and tied my limbs together so that I couldn’t move. Obviously, as soon as I saw the string, I responded with a lower level release, but it didn’t work. That means it’s not normal magic…

A vaguely familiar female voice, the strings of restraint that could not be removed with ordinary lifting magic.

A sudden ominous thought brings goosebumps up my spine.

And such premonitions are never wrong in times like these.

After a while. What appeared in front of me with the sound of rustling through the grass was the light green fairy-like girl I saw yesterday.

“What kind of rude behavior is this? Let me know when I say something nice.”

“…I’m sorry for tying you up arbitrarily, but if you don’t do that, you’ll run away again. Isn’t that really too much…? What kind of person would treat their lifesaver so cruelly!”

“A lifesaver?”

When I asked back as if I was full of energy, the girl did not give in and instead responded with a more confident attitude.

“Yes! If I had followed those fairies yesterday, I would have gotten lost in the underworld without even moving?

“I’m sorry, but I know that much too. But I was just about to step out when I was pushed back by you.

“Uh… uh…?”

After hearing my answer, the girl instantly lost her dignified spirit.

And as if I didn’t have anything to say, I hesitated and couldn’t speak properly.

This is Elementalist Eugenia.
