Shizu left her magical synthesis job and a house was created from her

3. The treehouse

Shizu feels that she just entered a dreamland. She walks around the house and whenever she touches something, it gently vibrates, so Shizu feels like she touched a beating heart.

There was also a kitchen and a stove that looks like a regular gas stove, the difference is that the knobs are made from nuts.

"What is this...?"

Shizu gently turns the knob and some fireflies appeared over the stove.

"No, these little things are not fireflies..."

Shizu gently touches the "fireflies", and realized that there are very small wings over them. The "fireflies" are extremely hot, but it doesn't affect Shizu, the witch who can control her own body temperature. A small cold barrier appeared around Shizu's hands which guarded her from the heat.

"Fairies..."

So these fairies appear to help you cook the food when you turn the knob... Oh... This is so convenient. Shizu is already thinking about what to cook today. "Hmm, what if I go and harvest some mushrooms, and cook a stew with rabbit meat... But rabbit killing is scary, it was okay when the chef cooked for me in the castle, but for me it's a little..."

Shizu wonders if she can really hunt and kill a rabbit. "They are that cute, how can I kill rabbits..." Shizu sighed. "Maybe I'm too gentle to be able to survive alone. Ah, maybe I can just have a vegetarian diet. But I want meat..."

Shizu sighed again. If someone saw her like that, they would tease her like "Shizu is like a grandma!"

As she was thinking about random things, some smoke appeared on the tree branches near the stove.

"A stew... I would need potato... But I don't think potatoes can grow in forests, because I read in a book that the forest is very toxic to potatoes... Eeeeek?"

Shizu forgot to turn off the stove, and now its heat is spreading around!

"The god of life, the origin of species, the ever-flowing substance... come!"

Shizu chanted a water-calling magic! She put her hands in front of her tummy, and the water flowed from there to the tree branches. The smoke disappeared. She also turned the knob back to stop the fire.

"Ha... That was dangerous..."

Maybe Shizu needs a lot of time to get used to the life in the treehouse.
