The conversation between Sieg-san and Jutia-san was proceeding peacefully, but halfway through, I began to feel a little concerned. The reason for this is that Sieg-san looked a little downcast…… Rather, it seemed like she was hesitating about something.

My Sympathy Magic tells me that she was hesitating about something, Sieg-san seemingly wanting to tell Jutia-san something, but she finds it difficult to say it.

[Tis great, tis great, I’ve had fun talking about various stuff! However, I don’t think we should talk too long in a store. I’m going to buy this tea I picked out, okay?]

[Ahh, yes. I’m sorry for keeping you too long.]

[Tis alright, tis alright, don’t worry about it! It was a pleasure talking to you, so let’s talk again when we get the chance!]

As I had this thought in mind, the conversation between them was about to end, and Jutia-san was about to head for the checkout with what seemed to be Glorious Tea in hand.

I had a feeling that it wouldn’t do if the situation continued like this, so I interjected at that moment.

[Ummm, excuse me…… Sieg-san, whether you have something you’d like to tell or ask Jutia-san…… Do you have something in mind?]

[Oyo?]

Hearing my words, Jutia-san tilted her head, and Sieg-san looked at me with a surprised look for a moment before she looked convinced, seemingly remembering my Sympathy Magic.

Just like that, Sieg-san’s gaze moved about, seemingly still hesitating, but then she looked towards Jutia-san and spoke.

[……Ummm, Jutia-sama, if it’s not too much of a problem…… There’s a question I’d like to ask of you.]

[Me? Unnn, tis fine, tis fine, I’ll buy out this tea first though, and then we can talk some more after we get out of the store!]

[Yes, thank you.]

When Sieg-san said she had a question to ask her, Jutia-san acknowledged it with a bright smile. Just like that, Jutia-san proceeded to buy out the Glorious Tea, and we all went outside for a moment to a place a few distance away from the street.

As this area is for the wealthy, there aren’t that many people here, so it was easy to find a place that doesn’t have many people.

[……Ummm, I…… don’t have any aptitude for Nature Magic or Spirit Magic…… A dimwitted Elf.]

[Dimwitted? Eh? S- Sieg, what in the world……]

[I haven’t mentioned this to Lili and Luna, have I? Elves are a race that live alongside nature…… I’m not sure if it’s a special characteristic of our race, but basically all Elves, regardless of their talent, have an aptitude for Nature Magic or Spirit Magic.]

Lilia-san and Luna-san, Sieg-san’s best friends, seemed to be surprised upon hearing this, but I had actually heard about this from Sieg-san herself.

When we went to Rigforeshia together, we were drinking alcohol in the evening and I heard her mumble a little bit about her lack of aptitude for Nature and Spirit Magic.

However, it didn’t seem like she wanted me to step into this topic, so I didn’t ask any more questions about this and just moved on to another topic……

Hearing Sieg-san’s words, Luna-san thought for a moment and as if she had come up with something, she spoke.

[……Speaking of which, there’s that fairy tale about the Winged race that can’t fly. It was apparently about how some beings are born without their racial characteristics……]

[Yes, I was an Elf with absolutely no aptitude for either Nature Magic or Spirit Magic, which is extremely rare in Elven history. In addition, my father was such an excellent mage that the previous King bowed his head to invite him to the royal court, and my mother was at a level where the first Spirit Mage declared that she was her rival, so it seems that the people around me were greatly disappointed because they had high expectations of me, being their child.]

Everyone had an indescribable expression on their face at those words. To be honest, it must be much harder than I imagined to be born without the aptitudes that the people around her take for granted.

[Ahh, but that doesn’t mean I was persecuted or anything like that. My father and mother had quite an authority among the Elven Tribe, and I myself was strong enough to defeat most of my opponents…… Well, that’s why there were many people who say things like “If only I had an aptitude to these magics”.]

[……Perhaps, the reason why Sieg is reluctant to return to Rigforeshia where Rei-san and Fia-san are……]

[The biggest reason really was that I don’t want to part ways with Lili…… but I can’t deny that I’m not too eager to return to Rigforeshia.]

Sieg-san is one of the most powerful people in the Human Realm, and during the Sacred Tree Festival, Rei-san mentioned how he might not be able to match against her anymore…… That must mean she’s among the top within the Elves.

That’s why, because she’s a very talented being, I think Sieg-san herself was quite concerned about the fact that she didn’t have an aptitude for these magics at all.

I also understood why she wanted to ask about this here. Jutia-san is a Great Spirit who stands above the Spirits, worshiped like a God to the Elves…… I guess she just wanted to be heard? The pain the Sieg-san had suffered as an Elf……

When Jutia-san heard her story…… For some reason, she had a look of puzzlement on her face.

[……Hmmm. How mysterious, how mysterious…… As for Spirit Magic, affinities do exist so I’ll just leave it at that. But I’m surprised that even though “nature loves you so much that you evolved into a High Elf”, for you to be unable to use Nature Magic. I’m surprised, I’m surprised, as expected, this is the first time I’ve ever heard of a High Elf who can’t use Nature Magic.]

[Yes, that’s right. For someone who was supposed to be loved by nature so much that I evolved to a High Elf to be unable to use Nature Magic, now that’s just so funn- Eh?]

[Unnn?]

[……Ummm, Jutia-sama? I’m just a normal Elf though?]

[……No, “no matter how I see it, you’re a High Elf”though?]

……Arehh? The flow of the story is kinda turning strange…… I kinda have the feeling that there’s a wide discrepancy between how the two of them recognize this situation.
