“Hey, what kind of grace is this?”

Lilia smiled and waved her hand.

“We were trying to prevent that because we thought more people would die if war broke out.”

“Lilia, just because you acted for the sake of humanity doesn’t mean it wasn’t beneficial to us. How can I wipe my mouth when it was something I asked you to do?”

Shamita said seriously.

“It goes without saying that what happened in the East is the same here. If I had come alone, things wouldn’t have been resolved this easily. It’s because you have vouched for my identity.”

“However, it has not yet been confirmed whether the two families will keep their promise… … .”

“I don’t know much about the laws of the human world, but I know that no matter how powerful a person is, he cannot shamelessly break a promise made in front of the Archbishop.”

It was all true, so Lilia couldn’t come up with a proper answer right away and just scratched her head.

What if Shamita came to find the Typhon family alone, without the two of them?

Of course, it would have been resolved in the end. If they found out that the Sky Fairy had a jewel, they would have calculated that continuing the conflict would be a loss.

But it wouldn’t have been as easy and clean as it is today. It was more like a light sparring match and a few minutes of conversation before a peace treaty was signed.

The same was true in implementing the peace agreement thus concluded.

If the fairies alone were to communicate with humans, would the humans be sincere? If they were such good people, there wouldn’t have been thirty years of conflict.

But as Lilia took the form of mediation, even the prestigious families had to follow suit, crying and eating mustard. What if she had just held out and not done anything? She made a promise in front of the Archbishop and then turned around and broke it right away? She was just looking for the sweet chestnut of justice.

“I asked you for wisdom to resolve the conflict without it escalating into something bigger like war, and you were perfect. The results were far better than I had expected when I first asked you.”

“Ahem, ahem ahem.”

“There is no need to be humble. And even if you did not fulfill my request perfectly, it would already be a great favor for you to have saved your people from the hands of vampires.”

Galen suddenly thought of the earth nymphs.

You saved the expedition team at the Oklanne ruins, and your favorability rating increased to the point where you received an invitation. And when you saved the earth elves who were almost killed by Drake during the hunting competition, your favorability rating went up and you all agreed to receive the precious star fragments without question.

The fairies, who had extremely small numbers, valued each and every one of their kind, so saving even a dozen of them would have been a huge achievement.

“While we were sorting out that incident, we had already decided to give you a gift.”

“Oh, really?”

“If we count the achievement of ending the conflict between humans and humans, there will not be a single person among us who dares to oppose us.”

“I know Lilia didn’t do it for the reward though.”

Galen interjected with a grin.

“There’s no need to refuse a gift that you give me as a thank you. Accepting it doesn’t diminish Lilia’s intentions.”

“… Then I will gratefully accept it.”

Lilia hesitated for a moment and nodded. Shamita smiled faintly.

“Thank you for accepting.”

“We who receive it should be grateful.”

“I’m sorry for asking you this favor, even though I’m repaying your kindness… … .”

“What is it that you are saying?”

“Actually, there was a gift I wanted to give you… but it was the kind of gift I couldn’t bring.”

“yes?”

“You have to go and get it yourself. That’s why I asked if you could spare some time. I’m sorry again.”

“Now that you say it, I’m more curious.”

Galen said sincerely. Is it too big to take? Should I give you a house?

“There’s plenty of time, so that won’t be a problem.”

“Me too! Oh, it won’t take months, right?”

“It could take months if you want, but if you hurry, it can easily be done in a few days.”

“Then it’s okay!”

“I’m fine too. Where can I go to get it?”

“The northernmost tip of the plateau. The deepest part of our territory.”

“Huh? Can we go?”

“Of course it is, since you invited me as a guest.”

Is the gift just an excuse and the real purpose is the invitation? Of course, whatever. As long as there is no ill will, it is fine. I gladly accepted the invitation of the earth fairy, so why would I refuse the invitation of the sky fairy?

I glanced at Lilia and saw that her heart had already flown far north. She had clearly been hesitant to accept the gift just a moment ago, but now she looked as if she would fire lasers from her eyes if I told her not to accept it.

“Lilia agrees?”

“yes!”

“I see.”

Galen looked at Shamita, who was laughing at the answer he got as soon as he asked.

“Can you tell me your schedule?”

“I could guide you from here, but since the season is what it is, I don’t think the usual route would be suitable.”

“This is especially true when you say you’re going north.”

“Galen, if it’s okay with you, I’d like to use the Skyway. Is that okay with you?”

“What if I don’t squeeze out all my magic?”

“You said you had time?”

“yes.”

“Then of course I’ll make sure to leave plenty of time for my schedule. Hmm, do you have a map?”

Lilia took a map out of her bag and handed it over.

Current location: If you go north from Elfaid, you will come across a blank space. It was an area that had been left blank because it was the Sky Fairy’s territory.

Shamita pointed out the nearest small town.

“It would normally take about five days by carriage from Elfayde to here, if it weren’t winter.”

“If we fly, half a day will be enough even if we take our time.”

“I will go back and tell you the news, and then I will come back. Let’s meet again at the largest inn here.”

“great.”

“How many days will it take to come?”

“As I just told you, it will take half a day. Even tomorrow is fine.”

“I can’t do that… … .”

“So, you have to adjust to Shamita. A few months from now, or anytime soon, as long as it’s not like this.”

“What about ten days later? You’ll be well rested by then, right?”

“great.”

“But then, what is the gift you are giving me?”

“You’ll know when you come. It would be boring if I told you in advance.”

The agreement went smoothly, except for the slightly annoying fact that Shamita’s indifferent face aroused curiosity.

The next destination has been decided.

* * *

As the sun was already setting that day, we spent the night at the inn in Elpheid.

The next morning, Shamita left the city immediately.

Perhaps because the Typhon family already knew of her existence, she felt no need to hide it, so she greeted the two and jumped straight into the sky from the annex yard.

Galen muttered as he watched her quickly retreating back.

“Hmm, I guess I was a little mistaken.”

“What?”

“The magic of Shamita.”

Lilia tilted her head. Galen continued.

“Unika had a hard time yesterday, didn’t she? She said she used a lot of magic power to fly.”

“Isn’t that so?”

“So, of course, Shamita didn’t say anything, but I knew she would have a hard time.”

The primordial spirit copies Galen’s magic as is, and since Galen’s life magic is a jewel, Unica is also a jewel magician. Although there is no revised world.

Galen has a Star Crumb Bracelet, so his magic power consumption is halved, but Unika doesn’t have that. That’s why Galen was fine, but Unika was having a hard time.

However, Shamita, who flew the same distance even though she used different magic, not only fought Landon, but also slept with him for only one night and flew away again.

It doesn’t seem like he’d be moving around while squeezing out all his magic power when there’s nothing urgent. That just means he has some magic power left.

“Well, come to think of it, we don’t know Shamita’s strength, right? We’ve only sparred a few times. She might not have shown all her skills.”

“Is it actually a top-tier jewel?”

“Or maybe the power of the sky is more efficient? That’s more like making your body light and running through the sky rather than pure flight.”

“It’s only a hundred, so I can’t really tell. It’s different when I use it and when the fairy uses it… … .”

“Maybe since we are both fairies, I might have received a star crumb bracelet as a gift from the earth fairy!”

“There are too many cases.”

I decided to leave the question at that point. It didn’t matter to them whether Shamita’s magic power was small or large. If I were really curious, I would ask later. I don’t know if they would answer.

After sending Shamita, Lilia wrote a letter to the Archbishop of the North-West, Ernst.

It’s the same reason I wrote a letter after organizing the Protein family last time. Now that I’ve organized the Typhon family, I need to report on how things are going.

However, since I had already received a reply that I could do as I wished, I didn’t have to wait for a reply this time. Fortunately, since I had moved much further west than that time, it would have taken at least a month for a reply to come back.

The two rested for three days, leisurely touring the city.

After recovering enough magic power, it’s your turn, of course.

[Life: Spirit: Grant]

[Spirit Creation]

[Revised World: Primal Spirit]

It’s time to add a new member to the family.

The magic of life and the magic of the storm were mixed in half, and he was reborn as a translucent green cat. If he wanted, he could turn completely transparent like the real wind.

The sixth name was, of course, given by Lilia as always.

“Let’s do ‘Procella’!”

“What does it mean this time?”

“It’s a whirlwind! Brother, your wind magic used to spin around and around, right?”

The storm spirit spun around in place like a cat trying to catch its own tail, as if it was trying to show off to Lilia, leaving its master behind. It was moving so fast that the wind blew out like a fan. I guess it liked it.

Anyway, even though he was the youngest by birth date, he wasn’t the youngest in terms of skill. Since Galen’s storm magic was a jewel, Procella was naturally a jewel.

“Wow!”

Procella’s skills, which were first revealed on the way to the promised place after leaving Elpheid in advance, were on a different level from those of the temporary wind spirits.

I used the wind and rain to fly away while wrapping Galen and Lilia together.

It’s like when you ride a boat, a large passenger ship hardly rocks at all, whereas a small fishing boat rocks even with the slightest wave.

The flight was so smooth that I didn’t even realize I was flying with my eyes closed. I don’t know how they did it, but they didn’t completely block the wind, but just let it flow a little, so it felt like driving with the windows down.

“…Why are you jealous again?”

Unika, who had been grumbling that she didn’t know whether she was a spirit of life or a spirit of wind, became sullen when the real spirit of wind appeared and gave her the space.

He transformed from bracelet form to cat form and whined in Lilia’s arms, and the kind Lilia tried to comfort him, while Procella just acted proud. Galen, who was stuck in the middle, was the only one who was in a state of confusion.

Amidst a minor war of nerves, they arrived safely at their destination city.

Five days to recharge, combining training and rest.

As promised, Shamita came.

“Are you ready?”

“I’m done with it!”

“Shamitha, don’t you have to rest?”

“I came at a leisurely pace.”

The three flew straight north.

The city where I stayed for six days was located almost at the edge of human territory, so it was actually closer to a large village than a city.

It wasn’t long before the flight began, but the ground was already deserted. It was already a sparsely populated area due to rapid expansion.

“You can already feel it.”

Shamita said during the flight.

“How does it feel?”

“The humans stopped expanding. It’s been ten days since the western Typhon, but hasn’t it been over a month since the eastern protein was taken care of?”

“Yes, it was.”

“It’s enough time for the orders from the higher-ups to be relayed to the lower ranks. Furthermore, friction in the east was worse than in the west to begin with, so the results were bound to be more noticeable. It’s said that most of the mercenaries, who were the main force, have withdrawn.”

“If there were no people, friction would naturally disappear.”

“That’s correct. Most of my kindred spirits still want to wait and see, but if things continue this way, the idea of ​​going to war with humans will lose ground. There are very few extremes that would even push aside the already-built human villages.”

“I’m glad it worked out.”

If that’s really the atmosphere, then that’s fortunate. At least, I can trust the fact that there are almost no opinions saying, ‘Let’s wipe out the already built human villages.’

Even though we entered the realm of the Sky Fairies and flew for a long time, the desolate scenery didn’t change much.

This is probably why they have tolerated human expansion for decades, and why they have never thought of taking over human territory. No matter how much nomads need a large amount of land relative to their population, there was still plenty of room in their territory compared to the number of sky fairies.

They were flying at a moderate speed, and stopped at the Sky Fairy Village to rest for a night.

The flight continued the next day. Since I had been seeing the same scenery since yesterday, I was honestly a little bored.

I don’t know the exact size of the plateau, but if we had headed south from the starting city, we would have probably left the plateau by now. In other words, we would have probably reached the northern end of the plateau.

“It’s almost here.”

Then, Shamita suddenly said.

“Whew?”

Lilia, who was yawning slightly, perhaps feeling bored like Galen, let out a strange exclamation. Her eyes widened.

Soon Galen could see why.

Even his eyesight, which was far inferior to Lilia’s, was beginning to show.

Something huge, rising like a mountain, but not in the shape of a mountain at all.

It looked blurry, and it almost looked like a tree.

“Hey, what is that?!”

“We call it differently, but it is the name that humans know.”

Shamita smiled faintly at Lilia, who asked in surprise.

“World Tree.”
