Soma and Felicia woke up early in this forest. That was simply because they had nothing to do at night, however.

This place did have a night, but it changed suddenly when the time came. The sun went out as if someone had turned out the lights, and stars began to shine in its place. Since there was no moon, however, it was too dark to do anything.

They did have artificial lights, but there was never anything so urgent that they had to use them. That necessitated going to bed early at night and thus waking up early in the morning.

That was all it was...but it seemed even that habit might become a thing of the past.

“Oh, good morning, Soma.”

As soon as he woke up and headed toward the living room, he passed Felicia.

He’d already known that she woke up earlier than him, since he’d been too sore to move. It wasn’t unusual for her to greet him like this just after he got up.

But there was one blatant difference between then and now. Felicia had always looked a bit sleepy...but right now, that was because she hadn’t slept.

“It may be morning for me...but what about you? Didn’t you stay up all night again?”

“How could I not? There are so many things to try.”

Felicia was like this now because Soma had deciphered the Witch Book...well, maybe not deciphered, but revealed the contents. There was a wealth of information inside, and Felicia was trying to make it her own. He was glad she hadn’t become depressed as a result, but...

“I understand, but try not to overwork yourself.”

Soma didn’t intend to stop her, though. He understood how she felt. Now that she’d obtained the information necessary to reach something she’d been seeking, it would have been more foolish not to act on it.

“I know. I was about to go to sleep.”

“Hmm... You’ve become nocturnal.”

“Well, that’s optimal in a lot of ways.”

It in fact was. Felicia was focusing primarily on potion recipes right now, and apparently more of them than not were most effective when made at night and in the early hours of the morning. That meant that she was generally done with a recipe around this time, and then...

“Well, I hate to impose on you, but I’ve written down what I need. Thank you in advance.”

“Understood. Should I take anything else I see that looks usable?”

“Yes, please do.”

Felicia handed Soma a piece of parchment paper, dipped her head and hurried back to her room. She looked a little unsteady on her feet; her tiredness must have hit all at once now that she was done.

Soma looked down at the paper and nodded. It was a list of items she needed for her potions.

“Well, I don’t know if I’ll be able to find them, but I’ll do the best I can.”

But first, he headed toward the living room for some breakfast.

While Soma had been able to read everything in the Witch Book, he hadn’t understood all of it. There were some words that hadn’t been explained, perhaps deliberately, but the potion recipes were the biggest problem.
