When I turned around, there were three people with stunned looks on their faces.
They were all glancing between me and the Sacred Tree.
「How are the three of you here? I thought you couldn’t get through the barrier.」
「The monuments suddenly started glowing and we are able to pass through again.」
Things must have returned back to normal after I defeated the Parasitic Tree and renewed the Sacred Tree with my magical energy. That was the only reason I could think of.
「Young lady, could you explain what happened here?」
Mumuroot-san asked while gazing at the now flourishing Sacred Tree.
Although he asked me to explain, it should be pretty obvious, right?
「Um, I defeated the Parasitic Tree, and the Sacred Tree revitalized itself?」
I explained to him while I tilted my head. I couldn’t think of a better answer.
「Then, that tornado was your doing?」
「That tornado was simply amazing.」
I looked at the Sacred Tree. That tornado was indeed rather big.
It was large enough to surround the whole tree, so it must have been quite tall too.
Tall enough to be seen over the mountains, apparently.
「I used the tornado to cut up the Parasitic Tree.」
「Using a tornado to fight against the Parasitic Tree… is something like that really possible?」
「Well, a lot of leaves and branches were broken off the Sacred Tree as a result, but yeah, it did work.」
When I looked around, the three of them followed suit.
The surrounding area looked as if a large storm had passed by. There were leaves and branches scattered all over, practically covering the ground. All the leaves were still fresh, which was an unusual sight to see.
「But, the Sacred Tree’s leaves are still….」
After observing the ground, they looked back at the Sacred Tree and noticed how lush and vibrant the leaves remained.
「Sorry, but I do not understand how this could happen.」
「I don’t understand either, Father.」
Mumuroot-san and Arthur-san were both confused.
Well, given the amount of leaves scattered around, it was a miracle that there were still leaves remaining on the tree.
It made sense for them to have doubts.
「Um, Yuna-san, what exactly happened here? Looking through my summoned bird’s eyes, I was able to see that you created a tornado, but the wind created by your tornado was too strong, so my bird wasn’t able to get any closer. I wasn’t able to see what happened after that at all.」
「…!」
Sorry, but what did she just say?
She said that she had been watching through her summoned bird’s eyes.
She had seen everything up until I had created the tornado… did that mean what I thought it meant?
I decided to confirm with Sanya-san.
「By the way, when did you start watching?」
「I was worried, so I started watching you when you came out of the cave. I must admit, I was surprised when you began to strip.」
This Elf just said something unbelievable outright.
That meant she had indeed seen me changing.
She had seen me changing…
I fell on my hands and knees in despair, with my head hanging down.
Thank god Sanya-san was a girl, at least.
It was partially my fault for forgetting about the summoned bird, but it was still embarrassing to know that someone saw me changing.
Had it been Mumuroot-san or Arthur-san, I would have been so embarrassed that I would have immediately run away and hide.
I somehow convinced myself to stand back up.
However, what Sanya-san said next brought me back down again.
「Ummm! D-d-don’t worry, I was the only one who saw it, and the bird was still far away.
But I didn’t think that even your underwear would have a bear… 」
Sanya-san’s words were a crushing blow to my sense of modesty.
Ugh, I wanted to go home right now.
Hugging Bear tried to comfort me by rubbing his face against mine.
Thank you, Hugging Bear.
