Chapter 9-: Everyday life in the Elven Village

I wonder if I was influenced by me of before, but now I'm a plant, but I sleep normally.

I can't photosynthesize at night, and it's time to sleep.

Of course, it's possible not to sleep, and if something happens, I will wake up immediately, but I think sleep is still necessary. It's painful to spend a long night alone without doing anything.

I could be awake if  there was some kind of crazy entertainment but there's no such thing in an elf village in the woods.

So when it's time for Sefie to sleep, I've inevitably gone to bed these days.

--Nuo? Morning ...

It's been a few days since I started living with Sefie.

My awakening is the earliest in the elf village.

Sefie's house is at the highest point in the village. The potted plant that is my bed is placed near the bed placed by the window. Therefore, my day begins with the rising sun shining through the window.

By the way, the reason for the earliest awakening is that Sefi's house reaches the sunrise at the earliest time. I knew that the sunrise would be earlier in places higher than on the ground. In fact, if you look down from the window, you can see that the light of sunrise has not hit the ground part of the elf village, and the morning has not yet arrived.

――Hmm ... Would you like to sleep more?

While resuming photosynthesis in the morning sun, I gaze at the bed next to me.

There, Sefi sleeps soundly with a really happy sleeping face. It's too early to wake up, and I decided not to wake up and concentrate on photosynthesis.

By the way, "Energy Drain" cannot be done with the potted plant I am currently planting.

This is because nutrients and other substances are quickly depleted due to the lack of soil.

This is inconvenient, but I don't feel it is inconvenient because I move less often than I live in the forest, and even if I store the rhizomes, it becomes troublesome to move and I will consume them immediately.

For a while, I sway the branches and leaves in the refreshing breeze of the early morning flowing through the window and work for my photosynthesis.

After a while, when the entire elf village was wrapped in the morning sun ...

--Oh, did you come?

"Magic Sensing" captured the existence of someone climbing our large tree using that mysterious ivy.

The magical power of an average elf.

When it arrived in front of Sefi's house, it entered through the front door (or the entrance anyway) without any hesitation.

It is a woman with light brown hair tied up intricately and looks like a human being about 20 years old. I don't know her actual age because I'm scared to ask and haven't heard of it any conversation.

Her name is Maple.

Like the caretaker of Sefie, she comes to wake up every morning at this time.

Maple came into the room, and once she stops, her turned his gaze toward me.

"~~, ~~"

After saying something, she bows lightly.

Probably a morning greeting. Maple smiled softly as I moved the branches lightly to answer.

No, I was screaming on the first day, but now I am close enough to exchange morning greetings smartly.

"~~, ~~"

Maple walks up to Sefie, who is sleeping in bed, and gently shakes her body to wake her up.

At first, Sefi was sleepy but slowly awakened,

"Good morning, Yugu"

--Oh, good morning, Sefie.

Perhaps it's a good thing someone comes to wake her  because she is still achild, once she wake up, she don't seem to be sleepy anymore.

After exchanging greetings in the morning with a smile, Maple takea good care of her and prepares her for the morning.

When Maple puts the big bowl on the edge of the room on the table, she holds his hand and sings something. At the same time, she perceives the release of magical power from her body.

"~~~"

A lump of water floats slightly above the vessel and gently falls into the vessel.

magic.

It's the magic of water generation.

It seems that they are a race that is good at magic ofcourse  they were elves. I've seen many times in the last few days the sight of using a little magic in my life.

There was magic in my knowledge.

However, when I see the scene where magic is used, I am so excited that I can't stop. Feelings like longing also emerge.

Apparently, even though I knew the existence of magic, I couldn't use magic before. That's why it's a craving.

――Fufufu, but now I'm a bit different.

Over the last few days, I've been hearing as much as possible from Sefie about magic.

According to her clumsy explanation, there are two absolute conditions for using magic.

One is magical power. Energy for using magic.

And the other is the attribute. Talent or talent for using magic. What is needed to transform magical power into a phenomenon?

I own both of them now.

What does that mean?

Yes, I can use magic now.

To be precise, he has that background, so he is currently training intending to learn magic.

Well, I'll talk about this later.

After the bowl is filled with water, Sefie washes her face, rinses her mouth, and has her golden hair combed to correct her sleeping habits. Then it is tied up nicely by Maple's hands, and the long blonde is tied up so that it does not interfere with movement.

Finally, change from her  nightwear and she is  ready to go.

"I'm done! Yugu, let's go! 』\

――Well then, let's go.

When Sefie is ready, I pull the roots out of the potted plant.

Sefie holds me like that, so I move the roots around and wrap them around Sefie's left arm, fixing my body so that it doesn't fall.

By the way, it seems that breakfast is not eaten at Elf Village.

It seems to be a normal life cycle to have lunch a little earlier, then eat supper and then go to bed.

"~~~!"

"~~~"

Sefie greets Maple with "I'm coming" (probably).

Maple seems to see us off and clean Sefie's house, do the laundry, and prepare lunch.

Anyway, when I leave the house, I cling to the ivy hanging from the thick branch toward the ground and shed a small amount of magical power. Then the ivy slowly grows toward the ground. It is a natural elevator (?) Made of 100% natural materials.

When you land on the ground, Sefi's "work" begins.

As a little girl, I thought she would be playing every day, but apparently, it was my wrong impression ood Sefie-or rather, Sefie's voluntary daily routine for the sake of the village ... it seemed like she had a job.

"Then, I'll give you everyone today."

――Um, please do it, Mr Sefi.

"Certainly"

Sefi's job is to "go up" the trees in the village and to the thorny walls that surround the village.

I'm wondering if this is a kind of magic. Because--,

"fight! 

The first thing to "go up" is the biggest tree in the village where Sefie's house is located.

Put your hand on the trunk and let the magical power flow with the words.

It's not a big amount from the total amount of magical power of Sefi, but from my point of viewing now, it's a magical power that doesn't feel strange to say that it's enormous.

I could perceive it to spread to every corner of the big tree.

Then, it seems that the big tree is full of vitality and has begun to come alive.

According to Sefie, this "going up" makes you more resistant to illness and allows you to grow bigger and stronger.

It seems that the trees in the village are clearly larger than the trees in the surrounding forest, which is a gift of Sefi's "Ouen" (personal talk).

"OK! I'm fine! 

After "Ouen", Sefi nodded with satisfaction and headed for the next tree with a sharp expression.

"Then, let's go to the next one"

--King.

"If you don't do it quickly, you'll get sick."

-That's right.

"At all, Sefi is very busy."

--Good work.

"I'm a little tired, so I want Yugu to give me Sefie fruit."

--Leave it to me.

"Also, the usual guy who will be happy"

――Then, I'll make it when I'm done with my work,it will be peach.

"Oh! 

With that kind of feeling, it's my job to support Sefie who is "up".

Also, she asking for fruits as if I had a drink at the end of my work. Recently, peach seems to be her favourite.

Sefie "goes up" the trees in the village, and after that, she looks around the thorn wall. If there is a need for repair, use something that looks like plant magic to manipulate the thorns to close the holes or heal the torn thorns. And finally, "Ouen" to the whole, and Sefie's work is over.

At this point, it's about lunchtime.

So she went home and had lunch prepared by Maple. Then she take a nap for a while, and when she wakea up, she goes out again.

By the way, while Sefi is eating lunch, I also return to the potted plant to replenish water and nutrition.

At that time, the small magic stones prepared by Maple and the scraps produced when the hunted animals are dismantled are used as fertilizer to produce the peaches urged by Sephi in "Seed Generation". This is eaten by Sefi as a dessert after lunch.

When there is a lot of fertilizer prepared, another one is produced and a treat is also given to Maple.

If there is still excess nutrition, small "rhizomes" may be formed in the potted plants.

I recently noticed this, but once it is separated from the rhizome, it cannot be reconnected, but it seems that it is possible to absorb the stored nutrients by using "Energy Drain".

So now, I'm storing small rhizomes here and there in the village.

Well, the problem is that if you don't collect it early, it will sprout. I'm guessing that if you grow it as it is, it will probably become a walking weed, but I have never tried it.

No, I'm scared.

Anyway, Sefie and I woke up from a nap after lunch and went outside again.

I came to the village square.

Some elf children are gathering there.

I will be planted in a prominent place in the square and will spend some time here.

Sefie and the young children play together-it seems that it is a daily routine to practice.

When I heard that I was training, I asked Sefi before. What is the training for? Or is it something you want to be in the future?

Sefie replied with a lot of momentum.

"I will be the strongest swordfigter! 

――Why! ??

The strongest swordfighter was an unexpected answer.

It's a goal that doesn't look like an elf who is good at magic.

While pointing at Sefi's arm with a branch, I

――How do you become the strongest swordfighter with such a thin arm of Punipuni?

"It's okay. In a little more time, it will be peeled off! 

-It's impossible. Let's see the reality?

"It's not murky. With just one of my fingertips, I will be able to do handle a lot of bears! 

that's no longer a swordfighter.

There was a conversation like that, but it seemed certain that Sefie's determination was firm.

Such Sefie trains with the children of the village. The content is from playing sword fights using tree branches to chasing after strengthening physical strength. Or catching insects.

In the meantime, I'm not free either.

Sometimes "photosynthesis" and "energy drain" are activated to generate rhizomes, or the elves of the village come to me with magic stones and fertilizer.

"~~~"

I still don't know what I'm talking about, but I understand that they seem to want my fruit.

I absorb the given fertilizer with "Energy Drain", collect about half of it as labour, and make fruits with the remaining half of the energy.

One may get bored with apples alone, so pears, grapes, persimmons, peaches, tangerines, etc.-anyway, I'll try to make various fruits.

Among them, the elf, who has a particular favourite fruit, came to explain something by bringing the fruit with fertilizer and pointing at it.

Perhaps he's telling me to make this.

If I do it that way, it will look happy, so it doesn't seem to be wrong.

With that kind of feeling, my existence was really easily accepted by the elves.

But it's not just about making fruits leisurely.

I'm a conscious weed that always aims up. Sefie is playing-no, I can't afford to spend idle time while training.

So what kind of training can I do?

It is, of course, a magical practice.

To be honest, I've always wanted to use magic since I first saw it.

I shoot powerful attack magic and drive out the monsters in the forest. I think it's kind of cool. Maybe Sefie also said, "Wow! Yug is cool! I should say with my eyes shining.

So I practice magic on my own based on the story I heard from Sefi.

The attribute I have is "earth"

According to Sefi, the earth attribute is suitable for "earth magic," "mineral magic," and "plant magic."

With those magic, it seems that you can learn them depending on your training.

The possibilities are endless.

And I already had the feeling of moving magical power. This is natural because it consumes magical power many times when activating "seed generation" and "rhizome generation".

Then how to activate the magic.

I tried to cast a spell.

-Oh, the spirit of the great earth, turn into a rock spear and pierce my enemies! Earth Javelin! !!

It was no good.

It was just embarrassing.

I wondered if the image wasn't enough, so I tried my best to imagine it.

--Earth Javelin!

It was no good.

It just made me sad.

I wondered if the magical power was insufficient, so I tried using more magical power.

--Earth Javelin!

It was no good.

I was just struck by a sense of futility.

There are various other things, such as trying to circulate magical power in the body, condensing it in one place, releasing it so that it diffuses, suddenly it fails because it is a difficult magic, a small hole I tried to dig up and make a brick-like block of rock, but all failed.

Generally, the explanation when using the magic of Sefi is also

"You can use it when you say" Guwatte Maryoku ", move it, make it big, or do your best? 

It was an explanation.

I intend to follow the explanation. But failed.

I think this just needs something other than Sefi's explanation, but Sefi doesn't seem to know what it is.

However, even if I ask other elves to teach me, I can't understand the language.

--Earth Javelin!

I will continue to earth javelin today, but it seems that there will be no results.

That's the time.

"Hohohoho, do you want to use earth magic at the spirit hall? 

A rare but quite old elf appeared.

Hia hair is grey, his extended eyebrows cover her eyes, and her white beard extends to his chest. It seems that the spine is stretched and it looks like a sword, but the appearance of walking with a cane is exactly--,

--Elder ...

Have I Met her?

No, it's the first time I've met since I came to this village.

"Is it really the spirit hall, do you already know about me?"

The words of an old man who tells so in telepathy. It was definitely a response to my words.

-Can you hear my voice?

"Not as clear as the princess, though."

The old man nodded with a funny smile somewhere.
