Exploring the Dimension After Reincarnation: EztEnd
The Poor Village

Journey continued. Elena cs. continued the journey with the caravan. On the way this afternoon, they passed through a vast meadow. There was a path, and that was the path they passed. Elena's peaceful journey with her circle.

Mah, actually Elena isolated herself as usual. He followed the caravan and separated himself from the others.

“{Uh... sleepy it..,}” murmured Aya, “{Yesternight is really tiring.}”

“I was forced to agree,” Elena replied.

“{By the way about yesterday, aren't you afraid that boy won't divulge your secret? You don't want to kill him?}”

“Don't be that nice to underestimate someone's life,” says Elena, “Again, with «Telepati» I ‘sikit’ change his memory.”

“{Hmm, ‘takes lightly human life,’ said.}” Aya giggles. “{Really the words of a pearl from someone who deliberately invited EztEnd just to find out the ability of his colleague.}”

“I have my own considerations,” said Elena, “From that, about yesterday, can you explain about the two figures you untit?”

Aya smiled bitterly. “{Well, how, yes?}” She reluctantly replied, “{Actually, I forgot what they said, hehe~}”

“Useful.”

“{Hei! Don't call me useless! If you want something useful, why not keep a robotic cat!}”

“Good idea.” Elena holds the handle of wakizashi.

“{Handder, kidding. If anyone is joking it should not be taken heart.}”

“But the taken stone, ‘kan?” Elena.

“{Stone also don't!}” shout Aya. “{Lagian, I did not completely forget the conversation of the two people.}”

“Oh, yes?” ask Elena. “Kalai so explain what you know!”

“{Hmm? How ya?}” Aya said, “{It seems that those from heretical sects are again misleading. In essence, it looks like the monsters you are fighting have something to do with them.}”

“Truely too,” muttered Elena, “That creature could mysteriously disappear. He faded into a black fog. This will be a new problem.”

“{Gini has a mission. Tell solve one world problem.}”

At their next stop, they found a bad, chaotic place. To be called a city, it is not. It's a village. Villages with arid soils blackened and overgrown with withered plants. There is a fence surrounding the village. But Fint was able to knock it down with a single slash of his fragile sword.

When the rear caravan party looked back, they would not find Elena who should have been there. The girl went in first. Somehow the story goes that he could disappear all of a sudden. He has many ways.

Inside the village, Elena encountered a scene that made her frown. That's what he does if he doesn't keep his face flat like a mask.

The view here is very chaotic. On the side of the road he found skinny people with dirty bodies and clothes. Some of them had even tattered his clothes. It is even worse when there are children among them.

Elena wants to help. But he knew doing so would not solve the problem. Help one, and the other will ask. The other asked, he had to give it all. And giving food is only a short-term solution.

But Elena doesn't have a heart. In some children, he gave them a piece of bread. Don't ask where he got it. His hat contained objects from the modern Earth.

“{You are kind too, yes?}”

“{In certain situations, it's true.}”

Beggars, homeless people, and destitute communities were not the saddest things Elena had encountered. As he reached the middle of the village, he saw a charred log standing. The part is creepy, there are human corpses that are burned along with the log.

There was only one thing on Elena's mind: “Witch hunting.”

“{A backward society,}” said Aya, “{Can't instead burn witches they work together?}”

“Don't say it.” Elena turned around and walked away.

Elena's view was dark. An ugly feeling enveloped his mind. It was not like he had never seen someone executed as a witch. Precisely quite often since he noticed certain places using «Perawangan». But this time it's different. The charred corpse he had met today was that of a child. And worse, Elena expected it to be a girl.

There is a reason why women are more often accused of being witches.

First, they are weaker than men of course. It was easy to fight, capture, and torture him. Especially women who are alone without relatives. And again, because men are more necessary when hunting, they “considered” more useful.

Second, many are envious. Usually women feel jealous to see women who are more beautiful than them. Then somehow, they would harm that more beautiful woman. With the dark of the eyes, burning alive they will do for the sake of desire.

Elena's meeting the caravan. He approaches his circle, namely Dorm, Rena, Lisa, and Fint. The four of them were shocked to realize Elena's arrival.

“Where have you been?” Lisa raised her next to her eyebrows.

“Private solution.” Elena added, “Don't ask.” With sharp eyes.

“Your friend asked nicely. What is the right response?” ask Rena.

“The less you know, the better.” Elena's sharp eyes were directed at Rena.

At that moment Rena was horrified and her bones were trembling. I don't know what caused it, Rena doesn't know what made her body respond so to Elena's eyes this time. Her instincts said that it was bad to make Elena's mood worse.

“Forget,” said Elena suddenly, “By the way, when will this caravan continue its journey?”

“Tomorrow,” replied Rena briefly. “This caravan always stops all day in a new place. Why are you asking that? You already know, ‘kan?”

“No, not nothing.” Elena turned around, showing her back to Rena. “I just don't like the atmosphere here.”

The four of them looked at the direction Elena was heading. Poor village with bad atmosphere. Houses that seem to want to collapse, withered plants, beggars, stinging stench, and various other bad things. It was all a beautiful sight before them. If you pay more attention, it feels really piercing to the port of their hearts. Sadness and misery — that's how they feel.

“{Go not a solution,}” Aya said, “{When you abandon and do not see them, will their suffering end? Your desire not to see them is your selfishness.}”

“True, I am a selfish person.” Elena smiled slightly. Smile as a laugh that laughs at itself. This certainly made the others astonished as Elena spoke to herself. How could they possibly understand the words of Aya who is a cat?

And not long from that, Elena — and others — heard the commotion. The commotion of the people shouting at each other told me to stop. They're chasing the thief. And indeed, not far from Elena's vision she saw a pitiful-looking woman being chased by four to five men.

“{You helped him?}”

“I don't like getting involved in people's problems.”

Although Elena said so, the one who said it was Elena, not the person beside her. Rena who saw that immediately darted and beat up the man who was chasing after the woman.
