I Can Speak with Animals and Demons

Fia took me to get pulled, and I made it to Fia's house.

Even though there are anti-falling railings and ropes, it was the middle liver that ran across the ladders and plates that were floating in the universe. Aren't they all scared?

By the way, Yak broke up on the way when he said he was coming for a walk around the area because he was tired. I guess I was pretty tired of playing earlier.

"Dad! Mom!

"Oh, Fia, welcome home. And there's Ferris and Jed."

When Fia opened the wooden door with momentum, there was Fia's mother inside with the pot in her hand.

I bow my head slightly to Fia's mother, who smiles softly and welcomes me.

The room where the trees were cut out and built as they were was lined with living tables and chairs and seemed to have a small but several rooms in the back.

This is the basic elf private house. The furniture and other items were mostly made of wood, and the interior was full of soft notes of trees, which calmed the mind.

"Mom, listen to me!

"What's going on in such a hurry?

Fia's mother rounded her eyes to Fia's screaming voice.

"What's wrong?

Did you hear Fia's loud voice, Fia's father peeking at her face from the warm curtain in the back.

"Oh, to Ferris, Jed. Was it you? There you are. It's a small house, but take your time."

He was a father who greeted him with a gentle smile, but the words were blocked by the fia along the way.

"Mom and Dad, listen to me! Your grandmother might be feeling better!

Fia screams full of strength by gripping her arms hard.

Sudden shouts stiffen Fia's parents for a few seconds.

It looks like Fia still has an injury or illness in her body. Then I guess that's also why he had a dark look this morning.

I would have treated her sooner if I knew that was happening. Why didn't Ferris tell me?

When I turned my gaze to Ferris next door with that thought in mind, he had the look of giving up, which seems like a bad bat at any rate.

Do you mean you didn't want an unrelated person to know the inside of the elf?

Well, maybe you told me if you knew I could use restorative magic.

"... what do you mean you might feel better? Fia."

A father recovering from stiffness comes under the fia and lowers his back, inquiring in a gentle tone.

Then he put the pot his mother held in his hand on the table once and put the gloves on the wall.

"You know, I can use the magic that makes Jed feel better! So with Jed's magic, I thought Grandma would be better!

"Magic that improves your body? Do humans have magic like that?

He turns his gaze as his father, wondering what Fia said, asks.

"Yes, it's called restorative magic for light attributes."

"Do you really have such handy magic?

A mother holds her hand in her chest and asks her if it's a favor.

Fia answered that for me.

"I fell when I was playing outside earlier, and Jed cured me with healing magic! Look! Fia's knee. It's nothing!

Fier who shows her right knee with abrasions earlier and speaks well.

The appearance of such a fia was very smiling, but my parents, who had no knowledge of the existence of recovery magic or anything like it, were somewhat confused.

"Is that true? What makes you feel better?"

That's right. Suddenly you can't be convinced that you've brought in someone who can use healing magic to improve your body.

It was the young girl, Fia, who brought her here. It could have been a mistake.

What should I do? As it stood, my parents began to overlap the Q&A, and Fia said, "How can you not believe me, idiot! Sometimes they leave."

How did you explain it? You want to slash your own fingers a little to show some healing magic here?

I have a young child in front of me and I hate to hurt my body, but I think this is the most convincing thing I can do.

When I made that decision in my heart, Ferris, who had been keeping her mouth shut, opened it.

"It's true. Jed's magic instantly healed Fir's wounds. With that power, maybe………………………"

He starts to be credible when he hears that word from Ferris, and his parents look at each other in surprise.

"Is that true?

"Mm! So that's what Fia's been saying since just now!

"Ahahahahahahahahah sorry"

Did you find out the difference in his father's attitude, Fia swells his cheeks and pounds his father's chest with poka.

"If you have any chance of healing, get a quick look. You."

Seeing the two of them, their mothers prompt their fathers. Just like that will give you two a relaxing space. Maybe this father has a pretty sweet personality for the fia.

Well, Fia's cute, so I don't even know how she feels. If I had a sister like that, I would definitely be drowning.

"It was. Quick, but will you check on my mother?

"Yes, I can't guarantee that it will heal for sure, but for once I have a little knowledge, let me see you"

When I answer that, Fia's father gives me a relieved look and leads me to the back room.

No, I'm fine now. I'm sure this will cure the look on my face, but I have trouble when there is a case.

Well, healing magic is quite usable, so as long as it's not too much injury, I think it's fine.

When I was guided into the small room in the back, there was an elf grandmother who slept on the futon.

The light of a calm day plunges into the room, and only Grandma's quiet breath echoes.

Next to my grandmother, who sleeps quietly, there was a spirit that emitted water colored light as she leaned in.

It's just a light emitting spirit, but its appearance looked terribly sad.

Perhaps that's the spirit I spent many years with my grandmother.

"I just fell asleep. Do you want to wake me up?

"No, it's fine as it is."

Stopping my father, I slowly stopped by my grandmother.

Countless wrinkles were engraved on his face as if he were an elf who lived for a long time.

I can see my complexion is terribly pale and lean because of my poor health.

And what bothers me most is the bandages wrapped around my body. There are bandages wrapped around almost everything you can see, such as your head, arms, neck and chest.

For a moment I thought it was a burn - but it wasn't.

I haven't seen a bandage, or seeped blood, and I don't see any rotten skin at all.

Normally, the more tragic the burn that caused the whole body, the more normal this elf's skin was.

But if you look closely, you can see something like a green mole popping out of a bandage.

"What about this green mole?

"Yes, it's something that's been developing for years now. At first, it was just my arms and legs, but they gradually spread to erode my whole body... Where the mole is wrapped, you can't even move it without feeling it. And when it reaches his throat..."

You think I'm gonna die because I can't breathe?

Come on, this isn't an injury, it's a disease! Recovery magic won't cure you!

I'm in a hurry when they tell me it's some kind of illness, not an injury. That's quite enough already.

My father, who doesn't think I think so in my heart, explains his illness.

"Many generations of elves have already died of unexplained diseases. Fortunately, only elderly elves may suffer from this symptom, but only rarely may they suffer from an elf that is not so old."

Upon hearing Phia's father explain, he doesn't seem to be highly infectious viral like the flu. If that were the case, the virus would have spread and the elves would have been extinct.

First of all, it seems that there is no air infection, so don't worry.

"It's the least you can do to save your young children, but one day you can be scared that they'll get sick."

Her mother groans so anxiously holding Fia from her back.

"Most of my ancestors died of this disease after living a long time."

I know I won't have a problem until I'm an old man, but it's horrible that I definitely have a disease to visit. Nobody wants to die of illness. Everyone should want to live happily and sleep peacefully.

No matter how proud the elves are of their longevity, they will not change that feeling. How anxious are the days I live in knowing that I will definitely visit in the future? Is that why there was an elf with a dark look on his face? Elves wrapped in bandages all suffer from this disease...

There is a human world out there, even as we abandon this settlement and go outside. It will not be possible to live secretly away from the eyes. There will always be trouble for humans to find.

It is only when there is a bond that prevents a few people from penetrating that the alleged extinct elves are able to live in peace.

Conversely, because it is a long-lived elf, there have been species that have not been acted upon before, and if it were a human settlement, they would be doomed.

And it's hard to say I can't fix it. I said I wouldn't know if I didn't see him first, but I made him expect it.

It is not sneaky to betray that feeling......

"What's wrong, Jed? You don't heal parched with healing magic, like you did when you were in the fia?

Fia wonders if I don't use healing magic.

I don't want to betray that pure feeling, but I won't lie. Because it's much worse.

"…… I'm sorry, Fia."

"……… What?

"Recovery magic doesn't work for illness. So you can't cure Fia's grandma..."

When I tell the truth honestly, I make a face that Fia can't believe it.

"…… is that so? Can't I cure my illness?"

Even though my parents had no excessive expectations, they would have had some expectations.

He put his face down and gave a dark look.

"…… no. Recovery magic is magic that improves your body, right?

"Most injuries can be cured, but not all illnesses.... I'm sorry"

All I can do is apologize to Fia, who suddenly looks up to me. If this is what's going to happen, I should have listened to you properly before I could have brought you in. And there wasn't enough explanation for the restorative magic.

That would not have caused Fia any hardship either.

Eventually, Fia realizes that there is nothing she can do with healing magic, or moisturizes her eyes looking up.

And Fia, who couldn't catch a tear, ran outside.

"Fia!"

Mother jumps out of the house like she chases it.

"Haha, I'm sorry. My daughter……………"

"No, it's my fault."

As we lowered our heads like that, Ferris pinched our mouths.

"I'm sorry that me and Fia didn't ask you about proper healing magic. Jed doesn't have to apologize."

It's unusual for Ferris to follow me, but hearing the words never cleared Moya Moya in my chest.

Is there any way to cure it?

"You must be thirsty, and I'll have some tea."

"Oh, excuse me"

When I was thinking that way, I headed to the kitchen as if Fia's father would pay for the bad air. You used the Spirit of Fire, or I can hear the flames burning up.

Grandma's water spirits lean in front of us.

"There's no cure for this disease or anything, is there?

"Yeah, I tried all kinds of herbs in the woods, but they didn't work. I'm still trying different things, but it doesn't seem to work."

"Oh well..."

Can not even the knowledge of the elves who live by the grace of the forest help?

I'm an adventurer, too, and I know the least, but I wouldn't be far from an elf.

When it comes to what I can do in the meantime, is the rest about asking the animals?

If it's possible, is it Yak or Pegasus, who lives longer?

But do they know that?

Don't feel like you can't expect much......

"Does anyone know how to cure Elf's disease………?"

"I, I know."

When I was wondering if I could help, I heard a cool voice.

"Eh? Really?

"What are you talking about alone?

Ferris asks me with a surprised look if I questioned my whining voice.

"No, because I thought I heard a voice that I know now..."

"Can you hear me!?

As I hurried to explain to Ferris, a water spirits came all the way in front of me.

The water-colored light is very dazzling with a full view.

I feel like my heart is shining harder to reveal the excitement of the Spirit.

"... uh, actually, I can hear you."

"Really!? This will help Fiona too!

A delightful color mixes with a cool voice and flashes as if it reveals joy.

Fiona is about Fia's grandmother.

"More than that, what do you mean, this will help Grandma Fiona too?

"What? Jed is the one who suddenly did what?

Ferris pinches the question when I ask the Water Spirit.

This feeling that you don't understand. I miss you like an adventurer in the city of Aether.

That's not if you miss it. It's important now. I want you to leave me alone.

"You said you knew earlier, didn't you?

When I ask again, the glowing water spirits calm me down.

'Yeah, I told you. We spirits know how to cure this disease. But our words didn't even reach the elves, so I thought I'd drop them off for a long time. I don't know why you know my language. But you can finally tell me. Finally, we can save the elves...'

voice and a genuine wish as if emotions were to spill out at once.

I listen to the words in silence.

"... the disease of the elves is caused by a tree called the Spirit Tree. And to cure this disease, we need the sap in the sage tree of the wise. '
