The Capital of Water
“What?”
I—I slept in this kind of place？
No, that can't be possible. I'm inside Romania's large church with Louise.
Something is odd with her alluring presence.
Then, in the room, she drank wine. The wine is mixed with some kind of medicine.
Does this mean that Lousie carried me here?
Where is this place anyways?
Saito shook his head as he sleepily eyed his surroundings in confusion. He was sleeping on a hill that was a bit taller than usual, leaning against an old man's tree's roots. Intense sunlight lit the same hill, making it a desert-like oasis. With a piece of shade around, only bits of sunlight leaked towards him, inevitably forcing Saito to squint.
The grass field is distant; mountains and forests can be seen.
Still, Saito lifted his legs and sat down, stretching his neck.
Is this one of Romania's grass fields?
Truly nerve-wracking. Saito shook his head at his situation. His body seemed fine, in its usual sweater and jeans, prior to the wearing a cloak.
He had been dressed like this during his times with Louise. Simply, finding himself moved into a church after losing conscious shouldn't be an issue.
Still, why would I be sleeping on a grass field……
“Each time I lose conscious, I wind up in some incredibly ridiculous place,” he randomly thought.
A figure emerged from the distance.
Who is it.
Out of habit, Saito reached towards his back, but Derflinger wasn't there. He had left it in the room. Aside from feeling a bit uncomfortable, there shouldn't be much of a problem; the approaching person's footsteps were leisure and slow，indicating no hostility.
Slowly, the silhouette grew visible, much like the one previously seen....wearing a grass colored dress. Hidden by a hat, the person's face was not visible, but based on the figure, the person must be female.
The woman approached him after he had awoken, and said.
“Oh，you're awake.“
Then, she lightly pushed her hat aside. Saito suddenly felt his whole body stiffen. Before him was a woman so beautiful that people would fear the sight of her.
She was around twenty years old.
Her charms were mature with a joyous atmosphere, coupled with a friendly smile. She threw a leather belt at Saito.
“I brought you water.”
He drank the water in large gulps. "Huah,” he breathed a large gulp of air before truly studying the woman.
“My name is Sasha。You？I thought you were a traveler based on how you were sleeping here，but I don't see any luggage……”
“My name is Saito。Hiraga Saito。I'm not here on a trip. I just found myself here after regaining conscious....”
“Right,” said Sasha before studying Saito. She easily removed her hat, revealing something that would have frightened just about anyone. Her ears were those of an elf's.
“Whoa！E-Elf！”
“Oh, you know me?”
“Y-yes....”
“Ah, that's rare.”
The woman now eyed Saito with interest.
Rare？Something was wrong with that phrase; everyone knows about elves in Tristain。
“Thank you for the water. I'm very grateful. By the way，what do you mean by people who know about elves being 'rare?'”
“I also don't know, the barbarians I've met have never seen my kind. Really, what countryside is this.”
Hearing Sasha refer to humans as barbarians had upset Saito a bit.
