「エルトぉ。えへへへ」
アリシアの寝言を聞いたセレナは浅く停滞させていた意識を浮上させる。
瞼を開けてみると外からは星々の明かりが差し込んでいる。薄暗くはあるが状況を見られないほどではない。
横を見るとアリシアが幸せそうな顔をして眠っており、セレナに抱き着いていた。
「......まったく。良く寝ているわね」
自分の胸を押しつぶすように抱き着かれており少し息苦しい。恐らくこれのせいで目覚めさせられたのだとセレナは認識した。
「人族の食べ物ってどうなってるのかしら。何を食べたらこんなに育つんだか......」
エルフの女性の胸はそれほど大きくはない。セレナは村一番の大きさというわけではないが、数えるなら上から数えた方が早い程度のプロポーションを誇っていた。
「ああでも、アリスはそれほどでもなかったわね。あの娘が標準なのかも」
日中にステータスアップの実を収穫している時、薄着姿で木に登っていたのでスタイルを確認したのだが、自分より大きいのは間違いないがアリシアには完全に負けていた。
そんなことを考えていると......。
「な、だめっ、皆もいるのよっ」
「............セレナ。何してるの?」
相手がエルトでないと知ったアリシアは大きく目を見開いた。
「いいセレナ? 普通女の子同士だからって気軽に胸は揉まないのよ」
顔を赤くして身体を庇いながら、ベッドの上でアリシアはセレナに説教をしていた。
「だからごめんってば。寝ている最中にアリシアが抱き着いてきたから少しやり返しただけじゃない」
「うっ、それは......悪かったとは思うけど。何かに抱き着かないとよく眠れないんだもん」
そんなアリシアの委縮する態度を、セレナは可愛いなと感じた。それと同時にエルトの好みはこういう守ってあげたくなるような女性なんじゃないかと考える。
「まあ私になら全然いいけどね」
正面から抱き着かれると圧迫されて苦しいけど、旅の途中でぬいぐるみを持ち歩くわけにもいかない。エルトに抱き着かれないのなら喜んで自分の身を捧げようとセレナは考えた。
「それは嬉しいけど。私はそっちの趣味はないからね?」
その返答にどこか疑わし気な視線を向けるアリシア。
「私だってないわよ。ただあんたの胸が大きいから、何食べたらそうなるのかなと考えてただけだし」
「そう? でもこれ、大きくてもそんなに良いことないよ? 男の人たちから変な目でみられるし」
「そういえばエルトは?」
ふと部屋にエルトがいないことにセレナは気付いた。
「あれ? もしかしてトイレかな?」
アリシアもそのことに気付くと部屋をきょろきょろと見渡す。
「アリスもいないみたいなんだけど?」
もしかすると二人で出ているのではないかとセレナは考える。アリスはことあるごとにエルトに接していたし、好意のようなものを持っているのは間違いない。
「アリス様とエルトなら何かが襲ってきても平気そうだね」
安心した様子を見せるアリシア。彼女はアリスがそういう目でエルトを見ているとは考えていなかった。
「ちょっと、アリシア。それは楽観的すぎない?」
アリスはセレナの目から見ても魅力的な女性の上、人族の中では高貴な身分だという。仮に彼女がエルトを誘惑したとして、自分たちが負けるとは考えないのか。
「えっと、アリス様は王族だし結婚するのにも条件があるって言ってたよ。だから平気じゃない?」
一緒に旅をしてきただけあって信頼しているらしい。アリシアの無垢な笑顔を見たせいでセレナは脱力する。
「まあ、アリシアがそういうならいいけど......。でも、ちょっと探しに――」
せめて二人が何をしているのかだけでも確認しようと考えたセレナはそう口にしようとするのだが。
——ゴゴゴゴゴゴゴゴゴゴゴゴゴゴゴゴゴゴ――
「きゃっ!」
大きな揺れを感じ、抱き合うのだった。
「お、収まった?」
「う、うん。もう平気みたい」
至近距離で顔を合わせると二人は息を飲んだ。
先程まで立っていられないほどの揺れがあり、恐怖を覚えていたのだ。
「これって、エルトの仕業だと思う?」
「た、多分そうかも。エルトって私が見ていないと変なことするし」
二人は先程の揺れがエルトによるものだと認識を共有する。
「と、とりあえず外に出てみない?」
アリシアがポツリと呟く。ここでは何が起きたのかわからない。
まずはエルトと合流して何をしてしまったのか問いただそう。二人はそう考えるとベッドから降りて部屋の外へとでた。
「建物自体に破損はなさそうね」
森暮らしで若干夜目が効くセレナは周囲の様子を確認する。
「セレナ。入り口のドアが開いてるよ」
アリシアは自分たちが入ってきた入り口が開いていることに気付くと指をさす。
「とりあえず外に出てみましょう」
セレナがそう言い、二人は気配を探りながら外にでるのだが............。
「どうなってるのよっ!」
「ここ......どこ?」
城を囲う壁より先は地面が無くなっている。周囲は雲に囲まれており、星空が妙に近い。
これまで見たことのない光景に二人は口を開けて呆然と佇むのだった。
[Elt. Ehehehehe] 
Serena heard Alicia talking in her sleep, and her shallow, stagnant consciousness came to the surface.
When she opened her eyelids, she saw that starlight was shining in from outside. It was dim, but not so dim that she couldn't see what was going on in the room.
She looked to her side and saw Alicia asleep with a happy look on her face, hugging Serena.
[...Jeez. You're sleeping well.] 
It was a little hard to breathe as she was being held against her chest as if she was being crushed. Serena realized that it was probably because of this that she had been awakened.
[I wonder what the human race's food is like. I don't know what they eat to grow so well....] 
The Elven woman's breasts were not that big. Her's are not the biggest in the village, but they are proportional enough to be counted from the top.
[Ah, but Alice's weren't too big, right? Maybe that girl is the norm.] 
When I was harvesting status-enhancing fruits during the day, I checked her style as she was climbing a tree in light clothing, and although she was definitely bigger than me, she was completely outshone by Alicia. (italics)
When she was thinking about that.......
[Don't Elt~. Everyone is here.] 
[...Serena, what are you doing?] 
Alicia's eyes widened as she realized that it wasn't Elt that she hugged.
[You hear me, Serena? Don't just casually rub my breasts just because we're girls.] 
Alicia was lecturing Serena on the bed as she blushed and shielded her body.
[I'm sorry. Alicia hugged me while I was sleeping, so I just touched you a little.] 
[Uu, I know that's bad... I can't sleep well unless I'm hugging something.] 
Serena thought Alicia's shy attitude was cute. At the same time, she wondered if Elt's preference was for this kind of woman who would want to protect him.
[Well, if it's for me, it's totally fine.] 
It was painful to feel the pressure on her chest when she was hugged from the front, but there was no way she could carry a stuffed animal around with her on her journey. I'd gladly give myself to Elt if he wouldn't hold me, Serena thought.
[I'm happy about that. I'm not really into that side of things?] 
Alicia gave her a somewhat suspicious look in response.
[I don't either. I just think your breasts are so big that I wonder what you eat to make them that way.] 
[Yeah? But it's not that good to have them big, though? Men will give you funny looks.] 
[Speaking of which, where's Elt?] 
Serena looked around the room and noticed that Elt was not there.
[Huh? Maybe he's in the bathroom?] 
Alicia noticed this and looked around the room.
[It doesn't look like Alice is here either?] 
Serena wondered if the two of them were out together. Alice had always treated Elt well, and there was no doubt that she had a sort of fondness for him.
[I guess Alice and Elt don't have to worry about anything attacking them.] 
Alicia looked relieved. She did not think that Alice was looking at Elt that way.
[Hey, Alicia. Aren't you too optimistic?] 
Alice was not only an attractive woman in Serena's eyes, but she was also a noble among the human race. If she were to seduce Elt, don't you think they would lose?
[Well, Alice is royalty, and she said there are conditions for marriage. So don't you think we'll be fine?] 
They've traveled together and they trust each other. Serena weakens because of Alicia's innocent smile.
[Well, if Alicia says so, fine... But I'm gonna go look-] 
Serena thought to at least check what the two of them were doing, and tried to say so.
----Gogogogogogogogogo----
[Kyaa!] 
They felt a big shake and hugged each other.
[I, is it over?] 
[U, un. It seems to have stopped.] 
When they came face to face, they both gulped.
The shaking had been so strong that they could hardly stand, and they had been terrified.
[Do you think this is Elt's work?] 
[Yeah, I think so. Elt does strange things when I'm not looking.] 
They both agreed that the shaking was caused by Elt.
[Wh, why don't we go outside for now?] 
Alicia muttered. I don't know what's going on here.
First of all, let's meet up with Elt and ask him what he did. (italics) With that in mind, the two of them got off the bed and walked out of the room.
[It looks like the building itself is undamaged.] 
Serena, who had good night vision thanks to living in the forest, checked her surroundings.
[Serena, the entrance door is open.] 
Alicia noticed that the entrance they had come in through was open and pointed.
[Let's go outside for now.] 
Serena said, and the two of them went outside...
[What's going on?] 
[Where are we....?] 
There is no ground beyond the walls surrounding the castle. The sky is surrounded by clouds, and the stars are strangely close.
The two of them stood stunned with their mouths open at the sight of something they had never seen before.
