Arna hesitated at my words, and without hesitation, Arna’s mother struck down Arna’s sword and broke her arm, subduing her.

“Ugh!”

Arna bit her lip and glared at her mother with an angry face that she had never shown me before.

That’s what a truly angry elf looks like.

I also don’t want to offend anyone.

“You point a knife at a mother because of a human baby?”

“Uh, mom first… Ugh!”

Arna was held tightly by her mother’s arm and immediately collapsed as if she had fallen asleep.

Arna collapsed and found herself alone with her fearsome mother elf.

Arna’s mother held up the fallen Arna and sighed when she saw me looking so scared.

“You.”

“Yes?”

“… Come on. Let’s talk.”

I don’t know if there’s anything to talk about with me, Arna’s pet, but I have to do as I’m told.

I quickly followed Arna’s mother and sat across from her at the table.

Same light blonde hair and brown eyes as Arna. Voluptuous breasts that seem heavy. When I saw her during the confrontation earlier, I saw that it was Arna’s mother who had a cold expression on her face.

Mother looked at my chest and face alternately with those scary eyes and said.

“Since when did you live with Arna?”

“That… … . I think it’s been about 3 years.”

In three years, I have grown tremendously. Even if I explain it, it would be difficult to understand how much I have grown in just three years.

“In 3 years… Ha, I told you never to raise a grown human.”

Even in front of me, he said that openly and shook his head.

“Well, I still… .”

“Only answer what is asked.”

“Yes!”

“Anyway, even if I explained how clever the big humans in the human village were, they didn’t even care to listen.”

What am I… I didn’t do anything.

“So what is the purpose?”

“Purpose?”

“Yes. He looks over fifteen. He wouldn’t have entered the forest for no reason.”

So, what you are saying is that you approached the pure Arna with an impure purpose. He said they had only lived together for 3 years, so I was suspicious.

“Well, that’s actually… No, can I answer that?”

“Answer me.”

“I don’t know what happened to me either… I had very little memory, and I was young, but I grew up quickly. beautiful… No, if you ask my sister, she will know. About that part.”

When I said that, my mother’s expression subtly hardened.

“Sister?”

Shouldn’t I have called you sister?

“Ah, yes… .”

“Ha, indeed.”

I swallowed my saliva and looked at Arna out of the corner of my eye. Can you please get up slowly?

My mother, whose expression was wrinkled, soon sighed and looked at me with a cold expression, as if she had lost her temper.

Actually, no matter what you say to me, it’s meaningless.

“Okay, don’t be too nervous.”

Then he looked at me and smiled sweetly.

“What is your name?”

“This is Kim Ji-hoo.”

“Jihu?”

My mother frowned when she heard my name.

“… I see I am Carmene. As you can see, she is Arna’s mother.”

Her name is Carmene. Seeing him introduce himself properly like that, it seems like he wants to treat me as a person more than I thought.

“When I heard the name, it seemed like I came from another world.”

“Uh… Yes?”

“I have lived for quite a long time, so I have often seen people like that.”

Was it not just me who was dragged here? So the writer was writing that novel to catch people?

But it’s been quite a while since I’ve been here, and I’ve never heard anything like this before.

“Of course, it’s been quite a while since I last saw you… . It’s not common though.”

“Well, I see.”

I reacted a little more comfortably, but continued to look at Carmene’s expression.

“Okay, then I understand a little bit. But I don’t think you met Arna as soon as you came here?”

“Yes. It’s not like that… .”

It gets a little complicated to explain. As I stuttered and had difficulty getting the words out, Carmene shook her head as if she didn’t really want to listen.

“There is no need to go into detail.”

Then he smiled and patted my head.

“Someday, you too will return to your original world, right?”

“Yes?”

I’ve never thought about that before.

I don’t think it’s up to me to decide. If that day ever comes… I think I’ll hate it even more.

After not being able to answer for a while, Arna soon opened her eyes.

As soon as Arna saw Carmene stroking my head, she got up in surprise and grabbed her arm.

“Well, what are you doing!”

When Arna woke up, Carmene returned to her original scary expression, ready to fight her.

“You raised it for 3 years?”

“… I think that’s about it. Why?”

“Can you trust someone you’ve only been with for 3 years?”

“Of course. How close are I and Jihoo?”

Arna’s words made me feel uneasy.

“Friendly?”

“Yes, I took him in, bathed him every day, and fed him… I’ve done it all. I brought him in and raised him from the time he was very small. How cute it was at first. It’s still cute, but… .”

Arna was speaking somewhat nervously, but the content was all bragging.

“This guy is very… .”

Therefore, more shadows were cast on Carmene’s expression.

“And we made breast milk together.”

ah… … .

At those words, Carmene’s eyes went straight to me.

“What?”

“Jihoo made it on my body too. Awesome, right? Unlike my mom, I can easily do things like that without bothering others, right?”

Oh, no, I’m not bragging about that.

“Ha… That’s what it was like.”

“What is it?”

Arna asked back with an innocent expression, and I couldn’t bear to look like I didn’t know anything, so I shook my hands as Carmene stared at me.

No matter how strange the elves’ habits are, it would be hard to bear it if your daughter was being treated strangely by humans.

“No, it’s done.”

Does it matter?

Carmene sighed and gestured.

“You should stay out. Arna, please talk to me separately.”

I glanced at Arna, nodded, and got up.

“I’ll be outside… Yo.”

After speaking to Arna, I walked out of the living room at a slightly brisk pace and out of the house.

I thought there would be shouting as soon as I left, but the conversation seemed to proceed quite quietly. I put my ear to the door, sighed, and turned around.

“Ha… Fuck. It’s so fucking scary.”

“What did you say that made you so scared?”

“Ugh!”

Again, what else?

As I sat down, I came face to face with the elf who had called Arna here.

“Oh, it’s nothing.”

“You lie so easily.”

It was obvious from my actions that I was nothing. I forgot that I had to be very careful with my words and actions, so I just fell down.

“Sorry, sorry. That’s actually… .”

As I was talking, the elf helped me up and brushed the dust off my clothes.

“Actually, what.”

“Ah, that… My mother was worried that Arna and I were too close.”

“What are you doing, Arna? I saw all the things your sister did.”

“… … Yes, it is. So, when I told my situation, Arna told my mother in detail what had happened, and I think that may have made my mother uncomfortable… .”

The elf who was listening to my story in silence nodded. Do you understand?

“What if it’s something that makes you uncomfortable?”

If I don’t say this, they’ll say something else. Even if I say it, it feels like shit.

When I see that look on my face, I can’t even tell a lie. If I put too much force into the hands holding my arms right now, my body might collapse and die.

“I took Arna’s sister’s breast milk… Squeeze it out… … .”

“You?”

The reaction was surprise and interest. It seemed like he had no intention of getting angry.

Are you lucky?

“You said to your mother that you were a cow and all that, and then you left and were milking a human being, right?”

“Yes?”

“Heung, I found out something interesting.”

The elf smiled at me for the first time and stroked my head. Is it basic to treat humans like dogs here? Why are you stroking my head?

I don’t hate it, but… .

“If we are talking separately now… Let’s go to my house and wait. He’ll probably come there on his own after we’re done talking.”

“… … Yes.”

There seems to be no right of veto.

Since we are family anyway, nothing strange will happen.

I just followed the elf.

“True Name? Did you say Jihoo?”

“That’s right.”

“I am Isela. As you may have heard, she is Arna’s aunt… He’s their mom’s younger brother.”

I swallowed and nodded.

I heard that it is difficult for elves to have even one child in their lives, but Arna’s grandmother still gave birth to two. What a great person.

“If you don’t mind, can I ask you a question?”

“If there’s anything you want to ask, feel free to ask.”

“Isela, do you also have a daughter?”

Isella turned to me at those words.

His expression became scary again.

uh… Did this touch the evil eye?

It was written in the book that elves who can’t have children go crazy… … .

“I don’t have one.”

“Well, I see.”

“Why, do you think I’m a crazy elf?”

“Yes?”

Isella smiled and walked ahead.

After that there was silence. I quietly followed Isela to her house.

It was said to be a village, but there were no other elves to be seen.

Looking at the distance between houses, it doesn’t seem like they live close together, and it seems like you have to go a little further to see other elves.

Eventually, I came to a small cabin built among the trees.

Compared to the place where I met Carmene, it is infinitely small… It was that kind of place.

“Are you hungry?”

“Yes.”

“Go inside and wait.”

Isella let me in and went somewhere.

Inside the simple house, there was furniture that looked familiar from the house where Arna and I lived.

Most of the items used by Arna seemed to have been made by imitating those found here.

As I was waiting for Isella to make something for me and looking at the cute household items, I suddenly thought that I might know why elves live in the forest.

If you look at him living a cute life with terrifying power, it seems like he is kinder than he looks on the outside.
