Chapter Index

    Lina, who had received memories of her vacation from Bunche, was leaning on her chair and smiling brightly.

    The memories contained within her body were truly filled with the utmost happiness.

    Lucy smiles brightly.

    Lucy is covered in sweat after finishing rough training.

    Lucy is holding her knees together with a tearful expression on her face.

    Lucy shows her disgust with her whole body.

    Lucy is sobbing.

    Lucy cried so much that her face was slightly swollen.

    Lucy became even more beautiful after giving her face to an apostle of the Arts Church.

    Lucy had such a sacred appearance that those who believed in the goddess worshiped her.

    Lucy’s appearance, so beautiful that it took away the dignity of the owner of the forest, was enough to make Lina want to be by her side instead of her.

    “Lucy hugs the main girl like a doll!”

    Lina, who had looked over and over again at the memory of Bunche feeling happiness along with endless shame, started flailing her arms and legs wildly and hit her face on the desk.

    Bunche’s personality is similar to Lina’s, so she is not happy about being captured by Lucy Aln.

    Even if you can tolerate someone being the first to cling to you and do strange things, it is difficult to tolerate the other person approaching you aggressively.

    Because it’s embarrassing.

    In the long, long life of the owner of the forest, I can say without a doubt that the most beautiful and cutest beauty is stroking me! How can I bear that!

    Even at this moment when she was reading Bunche’s memories, Lina’s cheeks were turning red.

    Just accepting the memory of the body is enough, but what on earth will happen if I hold Lucy myself? I’m really so happy and embarrassed that I’m probably going to die.

    “…I really want to go there in person.”

    As Lina slowly lifted her gaze and looked at Lucy’s bunny girl painting hanging on one side of the room, she felt like she wanted to get out of this boring forest.

    The name ‘owner of the forest’ in itself proves the dignity of existence, but in reality, what the owner of the forest does in the forest is not much.

    The duty given to them is to protect and maintain the forest.

    The owner of the forest, who is not even allowed to interfere with the forest ecosystem, can do nothing but watch time pass by in a daze.

    It was for this reason that Lina was the first to sign a contract with the Academy, despite opposition from others.

    I felt like I would die of boredom if I continued like this, so I made a deal with them and had a lot of fun doing it.

    However, the greed of living things does not die down when one thing is achieved, but rather only grows.

    Lina, who was gradually crossing the line that the owner of the forest must follow, came to have a wish to be by Lucy’s side.

    “Lina!”

    Lina’s expression turned cold when she heard a voice that resembled a wolf’s howl coming from outside the house.

    Why is that son of a bitch here? I was in a very excited mood, but it was annoying.

    Lina was grumbling on her desk, but even so, she couldn’t ignore the voice coming from outside.

    The being calling to her from outside now was someone with considerable power among the spirit creatures that guard the forest.

    “Can’t you hear?!”

    “It’s okay to stop calling me that. Murer.”

    Murrer.

    A wolf that guards the northern forest and a beast with the sharpest fangs in the world.

    As befits a dog, he is more passionate than anyone else about his duty to protect the forest.

    “Were you doing something? I tried to contact you from the moment I entered the forest, but you didn’t listen.”

    “Sorry. I have something to focus on.”

    “Was it a disruption?”

    “No. it’s okay. Don’t worry about it.”

    “I’m glad that’s the case.”

    Murer, who recognized the owner of the same forest as a group, smiled at Lina’s answer.

    “So what’s going on? Mueller?”

    “Ah. Recently, unusual things have been happening in various forests. I’m just taking a look around.”

    Mueller’s expression was not bright as he spoke about what was unusual.

    Lina, seeing the drooping wolf ears, guessed what had happened. He, who usually boasts the nobleness of a wolf, only shows his sadness once.

    “Has someone died?”

    “Okay. Those who protected the Mebida Forest and Dermogul Forest have gone to the side of nature.”

    When Lina heard the names of Mebida and Dermogul, she remembered the owner of the forest who protected them.

    In either case, they are young children who have not yet acquired intelligence for fifty years.

    You targeted a weak spot.

    “Which party did it?”

    “The ominous energy of black magic and the energy of evil spirits are mixed together. The two must have joined forces.”

    When Lina heard the words black magic and evil spirits, the first face that came to mind was that of the girl she was thinking of just moments ago.

    However, the image of her that appeared in Lina’s mind was not only as beautiful as before, but also had the feeling of being strong and trustworthy.

    As Lina reflected on that scene, she somehow became convinced that this disaster would not last long.

    “I know that someone as big as you won’t break down easily, but be careful. The situation on the continent has been unusual recently.”

    “Thank you for your concern.”

    “What. This is how it is between colleagues.”

    As if there was still a lot of work left to do, Murer said that since he saw that he was healthy, he would just leave and then suddenly stopped.

    “Lina. You’ve always liked beautiful things, right?”

    “Yes. It was like that.”

    “How about something like this? On the way here, I met people belonging to the Arts Church and received it.”

    What Mueller took out from his pocket was a pendant that looked simple on the outside.

    It seemed like the craftsman had good skills, but it had an elegance to it, but that’s about it.

    It wasn’t enough to overturn Lina’s strict standards.

    “Try to open the pendant. They said they put the most effort into it.”

    Lina, who was looking around at the pendant, heard Murer’s words and opened the pendant.

    And the moment Lina saw the picture drawn there, she froze.

    The picture of a praying girl inside the pendant clearly belonged to Lucy Alln, Lina’s favorite girl.

    Was Lina’s astonishment clearly visible on her face? Mueller laughed lightly and said to himself that it was a good idea to bring it.

    “I thought you would like it. It caught the eye of even me, who doesn’t know much about beauty, so there’s no way you wouldn’t like it.”

    Before he could finish speaking, Lina came in front of Myurer and looked at him with a frighteningly straight gaze.

    “No more?”

    “ugh. Hmm?”

    “Are there any more? Drawings of Lucy.”

    “The name of the person in the picture is Lucy.”

    “At least answer. Mr. Murer. Are there any more?”

    “…Ugh. There are, but these are for others.”

    “Give it all. Right now.”

    Murer tried to resist Lina’s threats, but it was impossible to defeat the forest owner who stayed in the forest he protected.

    The wolf, who had the sharpest fangs in the world, turned into dog hair and left the forest after losing everything to the smoke-handling fox.

    *

    They say ominous imagination fits well. The story Luca told me turned out to be true.

    Not long after I left, the Art Church was making items related to me and spreading them around the continent.

    When you hear it like this, it sounds like they’re just guys selling things for a quick buck, but the crazy people in the Arts Church were not people who would violate their pride.

    In just a few days, they created items that were comparable to or better than the various accessories they had previously made and distributed, and even called them prototypes and were looking for various improvements.

    It was only natural that the continent’s aristocrats would pay attention to this, as it was something that the art sect, which was originally famous for its various artistic fumes, was so obsessed with.

    While people’s interest is already pouring in, an incident has occurred that will add yet another interest to this accessory.

    A rumor began to spread that wearing jewelry related to oneself would bring good luck.

    This rumor started with a merchant.

    By chance, he was wearing jewelry that saved his life in an accident while on the mountain.

    The merchant said he felt like his jewelry was protecting him and recommended the Arts Order’s jewelry to people around him.

    This luck has happened to others as well.

    From small things like picking up money on the street to making big money. Everyone got lucky.

    Thanks to this, the information I found out in the back alleys was that the Arts Church’s accessories were currently not available and could not be sold.

    “Master left a message asking me to send one to him as well.”

    “…They say that the soon-to-be-grandmother is very cruel.”

    After making trouble for the jackal’s face, I escaped from the back alley and prayed that the trend of the Arts Church would not reach the Academy.

    However, my expectations were not fulfilled. Not long after, among the new students who entered the academy, it was common to find people wearing art sect accessories.

    “Young-ae. If there was such a thing, you could have let us know in advance. They said they had a hard time finding it because they heard the story too late.”

    When Joy showed me the pendant, saying that she had found it with great difficulty, I was truly distraught. I felt like taking it away and throwing it somewhere.

    I tried to physically remove it, but it started crying so I couldn’t throw it away and had to return it.

    “Deadly. I want a pendant too.”

    “This time, I agree with Lady Kent. joy. I think it’s shameful. You can even save what is ours as friends.”

    “If I could get it, I would get it! But the situation is not right now!”

    As I watched with resignation as Frey and Fabi took sides and criticized Joey, I shook my head and wondered whether I should contact the perverted apostle and ask him to hand it over.

    I’m dizzy just with Joy alone, but if the other two are holding that too, I’ll be really embarrassed. Even if I said I had no choice but to get it myself, I couldn’t bear to hand it over.

    ‘why. ‘What do you have?’

    After hearing my grandfather’s words, I slowly turned my head and saw someone glancing at me from a distance and tilted my head.

    Bishi, why is he doing that alone? What about Adri, who I usually take with me?
