Chapter 31

Confusion Flower is the thirty-first chapter of Yamada Kanehito & Abe Tsukasa's Sousou no Frieren.

Summary
Twenty-nine years after the Hero Himmel's passing, Frieren's Party travels through Laub Hill. Sein is complaining due to the lack of variety in party members. The party soon approaches a village, where they notice the villagers are all sleeping. As Sein examines them, he identifies that the villagers have been cursed by a monster. He asks the party to hurry as the easiest way to dispel the curse is to eliminate it. However, before they leave the village, Stark falls asleep as well, followed by Fern some time later. Sein and Frieren proceed onward, until Sein senses the presence of a monster. Hearing this, Frieren tells Sein to wake her when the monster appears before succumbing to the curse as well. Sein then proceeds to engage in a fight with the monster, a confusion flower that reflects magic. Having trouble against it, he decides to awaken Frieren, trusting in her words that she would defeat the monster, which she proceeds to blast with offensive magic. After awakening, the villagers thank the party, who proceed to head on their way.
