A white wall…the Great Wall of the High Elves.

It looks the same as the one on Cecilia’s island. The problem is whether they’ll let us in…

That was an unfounded fear.

Because high elf soldiers were riding horses and rushing towards us.

『Hey, isn’t that a warm welcome? Fate, will we have a fight?』

[Since the other person has high pride, it would be better to play nice.]

『Don’t let me be taken away though』

[I won’t do that, so don’t worry.]

『How about leaving the talk to Cecilia?』

In response to what Greed said, Cecilia nodded deeply.

She seemed nervous meeting the high elves for the first time.

The horse-riding soldiers galloped around and surrounded us.

Then, when they finally came to a halt, they all pointed their large spear at us.

A while passed as we both tried to figure out how to proceed. Cecilia took a deep breath and called out to the high elf soldiers.

[I am Cecilia Freuds. I am from the family that managed the Great Wall on Louise Island. Our Great Wall has been lost. That crisis is approaching your Great Wall as well. Please… I need to see the administrator!]

Among the soldiers, the one wearing the best armor took his horse one step forward. Then, he pointed the large spear at Cecilia’s neck.

[Cecilia!]

I was about to grab the handle of the black sword, but Cecilia stopped me.

The large spear continued to push her face up.

It seemed like he wanted to get a good look at her face from atop his horse.

[Hmm, it appears that you are a genuine elf. What about the person next to you, a human… or a monster?]

[He is Fate Barbatos. He is a human from the holy land.]

[Huh… you are Fate? Carrying a black sword, I feel an unfathomable power. I see, it’s just like the Prophet’s oracle.]

The soldiers lowered their large spears all at once.

Contrary to Cecilia’s relief, I couldn’t help but worry about what the man who seemed to be a soldier leader had said.

I can feel Roxy’s magic power from the Great Wall. If she is the Prophet the soldier commander said, then it makes sense.

However, is Roxy the type to claim the title of Prophet?

I don’t understand.

[I’m Autumn Dahrendorf. The Prophet is waiting for you. Please follow me.]

I thought they would give us a ride on a horse, but instead we were walking.

Moreover, it was an audience with a Prophet, not the administrator of the Great Wall.

We were forced to walk quickly and arrived in front of the Great Wall.

As expected, the closer we are, the taller it looks.

And the pure white walls gave off a silent sense of intimidation.

[Now, use your own strength to get inside.]

Cecilia and I looked at each other and nodded.

The Great Wall was cool to the touch.

[Ugh!]

I was struck by the sensation of electricity flowing through my body. I felt like I heard Roxy’s voice inside.

What… is this?

Unpleasant sweat dropped down my forehead.

Cecilia called out to me, worried about me.

[What’s wrong? You look pale.]

[No…I’m okay. More importantly, the path has opened.]

[Yes. I think as long as you can handle spirits, you can enter here as well]

Cecilia seemed to be thinking in her heart what she would do if there was no way to get inside.

She seemed to have calmed down, judging from the relief in her voice.

This means that I am eligible to enter the world managed by the high elves.

The soldiers also seemed to be satisfied.

[Then, go inside. But, you are not allowed to talk to the beastkin.]

Cecilia and I were walking along the empty path in the Great Wall,

[Looks like there is beastkin here too.]

[In the books, it’s said that they exist on every island. The beastkin are solely responsible for food production.]

[The one who rules…the one who is ruled by?]

This relationship is possible because of the Great Wall.

However, if this collapses, the situation will be reversed, as happened on Louise Island. Well… in the end, it was a disaster for both elves and beastkin.

The structure inside the Great Wall was similar to Louise Island.

There was an area in the center where high elves lived, and surrounding it was farmland.

The beastkin wears rough clothes and silently works on the farm.

I asked Autumn, the high elf, why we shouldn’t talk to them.

Autumn tells me as if it’s common sense.

[Beastkin are prohibited from talking outside. The tools used to produce crops do not need a mouth.]

Cecilia and I looked at each other. Both of us felt troubled.

It seems that stricter laws are imposed on the beastkin than on Louise Island, which was similarly ruled by elves.

These guys are calling the beastkin a tool…it’s probably better to remain calm and not make a clumsy argument here.

As I was walking quietly, a huge lake came into view.

When we got closer, I saw the beastkin were chasing something down with a net.

[That’s amazing…]

[Look, Fate. There’s a big fish swimming!]

Is there even fishing within the High Elves’ Great Wall? When Cecilia and I were both surprised, Autumn said proudly.

[Isn’t there a salt lake in every Elven territory? This is underground and connected to the sea. In addition to fishing, they also make important salt here.]

[There used to be one in ours, but I heard it dried up long ago. It was used as a rock salt mine.]

[Dear lord. Does that mean that the technique used to manage the island has been lost?]

[Not managing the Great Wall, but managing the island?]

Seeing Cecilia tilting her head, Autumn felt pity.

[We are different from elves. We have continued to pass down our techniques. What you are seeing is what it should be.]

If you ask me, it seems like the fields are fruitful.

The beastkin wear rough clothes, but they don’t look thin. The racial discrimination is unimaginable, but food seems to be provided.

Autumn said as if he had read my thoughts.

[You need fuel to use those tools. They work properly when their stomachs are full.]

[What happens if they refuse to work?]

[I’ll tell you what I understand. There’s no use in broken tools.]

[Are you holding a reincarnation ritual here as well?]

[You’re a person who asks a lot of questions. What would you do if we do, Human?]

Autumn looked at me with challenging eyes.

I took a deep breath and changed my mind. I feel like I would get irritated easily if I was forced to keep up with my opponent’s pace.

[It’s nothing. Just forget it. Besides, where is the Prophet?]

[The Prophet is in the temple in the center of our city.]

When I hear the word temple, I think of the Holy City of Orphen.

At that place, Georg showed us his arrogant skills and destroyed the divine object that maintained the Great Wall.

When I entered the High Elves town, the basic structure was similar to the Holy City of Orphen. The difference was that the cityscape was majestic to the point of being disgusting.

[The temple is now in sight. The Prophet is waiting inside.]

The closer we get, the stronger it feels.

Roxy’s magic power.

Greed had the same opinion.

『There’s no doubt about it. It’s finally here』

[Yeah, Roxy is inside that temple.]

[Good for you, Fate!]

One of my goals. The search for Roxy is accomplished.

There’s no way my heart wouldn’t dance. I felt like I should start running right now.

I put up with that and walked along with Autumn and the others.

The entrance to the temple was decorated to look like a god-like being was controlling the monsters.

We passed through there and went inside.
