I was originally supposed to go home after the meeting ended, but instead, I stepped foot into the world’s largest forest.

“It’s been a while since I was here last.”

The guardian of the forests, Mystria Frusch, lived here. This was a special place protected by her powers and she managed these lands. All the animals living here were connected to her consciousness.

Just like last time, a pack of wolves guided me through the forest.

“You’re very good guard dogs,” I told them as the manor came into view. I couldn’t detect anyone inside the building. No servants came to greet me either, and Mystria herself was nowhere to be seen. This was no surprise to me since I already knew her secret—there was no reason for her to go out of her way to greet me. I continued following the wolves and eventually reached her side.

Only a small number of people in the Frusch family even knew about this place—the place where the real Mystria Frusch lay sleeping.

“So we meet again, Lady Vixent.”

“Don’t you think it’s rude to invite someone over and not greet them at the door?” I asked.

“I’m sorry,” she said. “I intended to, but I’m not feeling very well today.”

“I see. Well then, I can’t blame you for it.”

Her real body was asleep. She was an old woman, already one hundred and forty years old, and had lived seven times as long as I had. This was the Frusch family’s biggest secret.

There was no one else who she could pass on her powers to, so used her own power to extend her life. Even now, she was playing the role of the new head of house. But still...

“It looks like you’re reaching your limit,” I remarked.

“Yes. Little by little, I can feel it. My death is approaching,” she said.

She could extend her lifespan to a certain point by using her supernatural powers, but she still couldn’t stop the aging process completely. Even now, her body was slowly heading towards its end.

I’d come here today so that if something happened to her, I could hear her final wishes.

“What about that engagement you mentioned earlier?” I asked.

“It’s going well. I just heard a few days ago that the other woman is pregnant.”

“I see. Good for you.”

“Indeed, and that’s why I can’t die yet,” Mystria told me. “I have to cling to this life long enough for the child to get old enough to express their own will. I need to keep my promise to you too, after all.”

“I’m not a part of the promise. That was a promise you made on your own.”

“That’s true,” she said, and smiled sadly.

I had the ability to absorb the supernatural powers of others, and it was possible for me to pass on those powers as well. That meant I could use that ability to transfer powers to a new life. She’d asked me to do so for her, but I’d refused and had told her she was being selfish. The most important thing here wasn’t to keep her powers alive.
