"Pick it up."
Hans threw a stick, one could say it was a stick that was perfect down to the smallest detail, to Collin.
Of course, the boy picked it up, but he was looking at it as if he was looking at some strange object.
Ignoring the puzzled look in Collin's eyes, the protagonist then pointed at the scarecrow right next to them.
"Now, cut it in half with one strike."
"…Huh?"
That was the boy's first and only reaction upon hearing those words.
At first, if Collin felt a little puzzled, now, he felt like he was an idiot.
A very predictable reaction.
Cutting a scarecrow in half was not something that was too difficult.
But cutting it in half with just one slash was almost impossible.
Especially since Collin was just a child, and could only use this humble wooden stick.
"I understand what you're worried about, Collin."
Understanding the boy's concern, Hans couldn't help but smile at his cuteness.
"And that's why I'm here."
"So what should I do now?"
