Chapter 133 - Interference?….Another Lizard
With the snow piled up, there’s nothing to do so I decided to check the forest out.
There might be a village or a settlement of beastkin there.
The sooner we find the children’s parents, the better.

It had been a while since I had used my drone clairvoyance to look around the forest.
I’ve confirmed that there are no villages within the barrier I’ve created.
I have to check outside the barrier.
-0-
I can move the drone clairvoyance within the barrier without any discomfort with the use of magic power.
In the past, when I tried to check outside the barrier, I couldn’t deal with the rapid decrease of magic power.
However, it wasn’t until my accuracy improved that I noticed that my magical power was decreasing with my magic power detection.
Until then, I was troubled with the phenomenon of my body suddenly becoming heavy.

This time….amazing!
My magical power increased?
I don’t feel the sensation of my magical power is decreasing.
I can check a wider area now.
Even so, the black shadows in the forest have decreased considerably.
It would be nice if the curse would continue to disappear like this.

Now, I want to know if there is anything other than forest in this world.
Should I try flying in one direction to check how far I can go?
-0-
I see something that’s not a forest on the screen.
Yeah, a field!
Finally, I saw something outside the forest.
I’m very happy since I was even worried that this world is nothing but forest.
Still, considering how long it took me to find the field, I was surprised by the size of the forest.
I sent the drone clairvoyance out of the forest to check the place outside the forest.
「Uwaa!」
I suddenly felt an unpleasant feeling of my body being electrified.
The drone’s image was cut off.

…what happened?
Let’s try again.
-0-
…I tried thrice but something was blocking me and I couldn’t get out of the forest.
I thought there was a barrier so I tried to detect the flow of magic but I couldn’t feel anything.
I can’t get out of the forest.
Why?
I concentrated once again trying to find the flow of magic but still couldn’t feel anything.
If it’s not magic then…is it a curse….am I being contained?
-0-
Let’s calm down first.
-0-
Let’s start with what we can do.
We’re still in the middle of searing for villages and settlements.
Yeah, let’s take a look around the entire forest.
Maybe I can find a way out of the forest.
-0-
….lakes of all sizes, a few waterfalls, two big mountains,…a hole?….and a river.
The river seems to be in the process of spreading.
Come to think of it, there’s also a river near the field.
It is spreading throughout the entire forest.
-0-
As for the villages and hamlets…none.
I checked the forest for several days in a row but I can’t find any sign of them.
So, those beastkids came from outside the forest.
How many days of walking did they do?
They’re amazing.
-0-
….but that means they get into the forest.
However….I can’t get out.
I found a path leading out of the forest so I tried moving on the path but I still couldn’t get out.
-0-
Hnn, I don’t know.
I let my drone clairvoyance wander around.
How do I get out of the forest?
…..uooo!
-0-
I was startled.
A lizard suddenly appeared in front of the drone clairvoyance image.
Flying Lizard?
…No, it has grown up and not this little.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Fluffy? Marshmallow?
…I checked outside….they are still playing in the square today.
They are shooting each other with magic but that’s how they play.
-0-
I stared at the image.
….it’s still there.
Is it one of Fluffy and the other’s companions?
….perhaps it is only curious about the shape of my drone.
-0-
The drone clairvoyance has transformed into the shape of a drone I know.
At first, it looked like a shining blob but before I knew it, it became similar to the black drone I saw on Japanese TV.
When I first saw it with my own eyes, I was terrified.
I had always thought it was a lump of light.
-0-
Did it come to check something unfamiliar?
Ah, anyway….what should I do?
I had the drone clairvoyance move toward my house….and it follows.
I’ll try to increase the speed.
….amazing.
-0-
Ehto, it really followed up to my house.
