These dots of light are exactly the ones that little Emilia found when she sneaked out of the "Princess Cabin" for the first time. Milia and those light spots get along very friendly. Even if they can't communicate with each other through language, they are already very good friends in the heart of little Emilia.

And, because she didn't know what those light spots were called, little Emilia chose the name in the story she had read and called them 'Mr. Fairy'

In fact, since having the help of the 'fairies', little Emilia feels as if she has become the master of the forest.

Whether it's eavesdropping on the conversations of adults, stealing other people's snacks without consent, or moving things from other people's homes and shaving other people's hair, they will not be easily discovered.

Every time little Emilia sees the appearance of those adults who are a little unclear because of her prank, but can't find the culprit, she can't help but laugh out loud.

It can be said that he has become a great villain who does all kinds of evil.

"Speaking of which, Qiu Si and the others will come over today, right?"

Little Emilia walked towards the square while talking to herself.

Because it was no longer the reason for the first offense, little Emilia gradually figured out the trajectory of the adults in the process of sneaking away.

Like when she was left alone in the 'Princess Cabin', basically when Joss brought the others into the forest.During this process, the adults will gather together in the square to wait for Qiu Si to arrive, and then carry the clothes and daily necessities that Qiu Si sent over.

Although little Emilia thought it was very interesting at the beginning, every time she would hide nearby and observe what happened to Joss and Fortuna, but because of the reason of moving the goods every time, little Emilia also Started to feel bored.

And the reason why she felt bored and continued to choose to hide and peek and listen was only because she could occasionally hear from Qius and Fortuna the father and mother she had never seen before.

Fortuna would never talk to little Emilia about her biological parents.Every time Little Emilia asked, Fortuna would always choose to be perfunctory, and even Little Emilia was so familiar with it that she knew what Fortuna would say.

It's nothing more than words like 'brother and sister-in-law, that is, your parents are very busy now, so they don't have time to come back to take care of you', Little Amelia's ears are almost callused.

"However, although you won't tell me..."

But you can choose to eavesdrop!

Little Emilia skillfully climbed up the tree she had climbed and stayed on many times, sat on the best audience seat she had reserved, and observed her mother Fortuna and Qius.

The adults in the square were no different from the previous few times, and Fortuna and Joss were also standing there.

From a distance, it seemed that the two were having a very happy conversation, without the heaviness that Little Emilia felt when she first saw the conversation between the two, especially Fortuna's expression seemed soft.

"Recently, Emilia is really energetic. She always runs back and forth covered in mud."

"But if it's like this every day, the speed of changing and washing clothes will hardly keep up, so I feel a little distressed."

Fortuna seemed to be complaining, but her words were full of doting and talking about little Emilia with Qius.And Qiu Si also responded with a gentle smile. Even though he hadn't actually seen it, he imagined the scene of a child playing with great vigor.

"Being happy and healthy is better than anything else. As for the clothes, don't worry. I will prepare more for Lady Emilia."

"Winter is coming to an end outside the forest, and there are more unnecessary clothes."

Because of the elves, the changes of the four seasons can hardly be felt in the Elliot Forest, so no matter how the outside changes, the forest still looks like spring all the year round.

"I just complained about Emilia's naughtiness, but in the end it seems to be urging you..."

Fortuna said so, but after a short pause, she asked hesitantly, "Your Majesty, do you have a lot of clothes?"

"Of course, you don't have to worry about your lord's clothes."

"And like Lady Fortuna, I believe no matter what kind of clothes are very suitable!"

Although Fortuna did ask if there were clothes that would suit her, she was a little shy to be pointed out so bluntly by Qius.

Moreover, no matter what kind of clothes are suitable, it is also a compliment to her, right?

Facing Qiu Si's answer, Fortuna became unusually shy.

Fortuna, who was rarely blushing and shy, slightly avoided the sight of Qius looking at her, and as if to cover up her own, Fortuna deliberately put on a straight face.

"Really... You know we are old acquaintances, but since when did you learn to make such a joke?"

"joke?"

Juce was a little confused.

"I just spoke the truth. Could it be that I said something inappropriate unintentionally?"

"I know you won't deliberately cover up your emotions or lie, but it's even worse for me!"

"Well……"

Looking at Fortuna whose temper seemed to be getting worse, Qiu Si didn't realize that the woman in front of her was not really angry, but was covering up her shy emotions.

Therefore, Qiu Si, who didn't understand why Fortuna became unhappy, subconsciously stretched out his right hand, and put the back of his hand on Fortuna's forehead.

"...Jose?"

Fortuna was taken aback by Qiu Si's sudden movement, but she didn't run away. She just looked at Qiu Si with a puzzled expression.

"excuse me."

Qiu Si smiled and put down his right hand that was touching Fortuna's forehead.

"Because Lady Fortuna seemed a little unhappy, I also subconsciously remembered what happened a long time ago."

"At that time, it was the same as now. Fortuna-sama who was chatting with me suddenly became unhappy, and then I realized that I was sick."

"But right now... there doesn't seem to be any signs of fever."

So why not happy?Jus couldn't help but fell into confusion.

"...That happened so many years ago, I sincerely beg you not to treat me like a child!"

She was misunderstood in the strange part that she cared about very much, and Fortuna couldn't tell what kind of mood she was in right now, so she could only complain to Qius.

However, if you have to make an evaluation, then you should not hate it.

Regarding Qiu Si's concern and actions, Fortuna didn't feel disgusted, and even enjoyed it a little.As for Fortuna's expression, whether it's little Emilia in the illusion of the trial, or Emilia who has recalled part of the memory after the trial, she rarely sees it in past memories.

"It seems that when you were a child, you were very dissatisfied with the relationship between your adoptive mother and Qiu Si."

Echidna noticed Little Emilia's expression, which was a mixture of displeasure and jealousy.

"...That's something that can't be helped. Before that, I should have always thought that Mama Fortuna would only show that expression to me."

"So, when I was a child, I probably felt that Qiu Si took away my mother Fortuna, and then I got angry on my own."

After all, she is still a child, even if that child is her former self, Emilia can understand the child's thoughts.

Getting angry for no reason because of unimportant things, this is a child, even Emilia will not cover up her own shortcomings when she was a child.

"However, it seems that you have already started to care about the 'seal' when you were a child. Does that mean it's this time?"

Both Echidna and Emilia noticed that after Fortuna and Qius talked about the seal as usual, there was an obvious change in the eyes of little Emilia who had been hiding by the side.

"The next thing is the usual...the seal side, there is no problem, right?"

Lowering his voice, Qius asked Fortuna about the seal as usual.And because it was already a customary question and answer, Fortuna also gave an answer that was the same as usual.

"There is no change at all, I have carefully confirmed it every time."

"It's your duty, so you have to check with Fortuna-sama every time."

Joss smiled wryly.

"And, although it may cause anxiety, please forgive me for a little mention."

"Now the situation outside the forest has become tense. Both humans and demihumans seem to be full of gunpowder, and there are also frictions between countries."

"Although it shouldn't affect the forest, maybe I'm worrying unnecessarily. I'd better ask Mrs. Fortuna to pay more attention to the situation in the forest recently."

"I understand. I will take good care of the seal and the key as guardians. As for the outside things... I'll leave it to you."

Fortuna nodded, taking Qiu Si's reminder to heart.

And at this time, Echidna, who had been watching the interaction between Fortuna and Qius, turned her head to Emilia and said as if the sound had just sounded: "Speaking of it, if you count from this point in time, If we start, 50 years from now will be the time for the outbreak of the Asian Human War.”

"Well, although I was still frozen at that time, I also came into contact with related records when I was studying at Roswaal."

Emilia nodded, recalling the incident about the demihuman war.

400 years ago, the "jealous witch" ran away and swallowed half of the world, causing an irreparable disaster for the whole world. It can even be said that if it was not stopped by the sword master, the dragon and the great sage, it would definitely be possible. destroy the whole world.

And because the 'Witch of Jealousy' is a half-elf, she belongs to the group of demi-humans.Not only the half-elves, but even the entire demi-human group began to be hated by humans, and it was accompanied by strong discrimination.

No matter where the demihumans go, they will be hostile by humans, not only being gossiped behind the scenes, but conflicts on the surface are also constantly emerging.

Even in Lugnica, the pro-dragon kingdom where humans and demihumans coexist peacefully, there is no exception. Just like the irreconcilable contradictions between races, the relationship between humans and demihumans has dropped to a freezing point.

However, at that time, although there were constant frictions and conflicts, both humans and demihumans were extremely restrained...

No, it may be a bit self-deceiving to say that it is human restraint, because in this experience, Asians are the ones who were innocently persecuted. In a country where the mainstream is human, the oppression faced by Asians can be said to be as numerous as stars. , I can only endure silently and curse the 'jealous witch' in my heart.

And all the conflicts erupted 50 years ago... that is, 50 years after the time point where little Emilia was in the illusion of trials.

"Remember, at first it seemed that the merchant group composed of demi-humans had a conflict with the guards on the Lugnica border. After that, the merchant groups that had close contacts with the demi-human race were all wiped out by humans, so before The contradictions that I have been enduring have been thoroughly stimulated."

If Emilia had to evaluate who was right and who was wrong in this past, then Emilia could only say that humans did something wrong.

Just like she is said to be a 'witch' just because of her silver-haired half-elf appearance and identity, it is only natural that demihumans recruited and persecuted because of fear, resistance, disgust, and exclusion of these wrong ideas will completely choose to resist things.

"So, looking at it this way, although the conflict broke out 50 years ago, there have been signs of it since 100 years ago."

Echidna smiled and said, "It's also thanks to the fact that you live in this forest, otherwise you might also be the target of persecution!"

"...Although I didn't become the target of persecution, the result is not good, isn't it?"

Emilia teased Echidna a little bit, how could she not understand the meaning of Echidna's words.

Although there are constant conflicts between demihumans and humans, it does not mean that there is no way to live in the human world.And the ending of choosing to guard the seal in the Great Forest of Ariol turned into complete annihilation.

Echidna was talking about the stupidity of Emilia and the others in her own way.

"The seal must be very important."

"Yes, it is indeed very important. If the seal is lifted, maybe the world will also be destroyed!"

Echidna said this, and then set her eyes on little Emilia.

"You see, when you were a child, you decided to go to the seal because of curiosity. I think I should take back what I said before. Even when you were a child, you are very annoying, and you don't realize the problem at all. "

"...That's just because I was too young, so I didn't realize the importance of the seal."

Emilia tried to justify her naughty behavior when she was a child, but in Echidna's eyes, she was very powerless.

"Yes, children can't distinguish the importance and seriousness of things, so they can justify their actions."

"But... there are children who are about the same age as you in this forest, but they need to be more stable and mature, and they also know what can and cannot be done."
