Do middlewares are counted as functions?

Hi everyone, I am new to cloudflare and trying to learn pages. On the pages websites, it is said "On both free and paid plans, requests to static assets are free and unlimited. A request is considered static when it does not invoke Functions." https://developers.cloudflare.com/pages/functions/pricing/#static-asset-requests I was wondering if invoking a middleware is counted as invoking a function. To be more specific, I am using functions/_middleware.js to serve static assets and I am not sure if such a middleware incur cost for serving a static file.

export async function onRequest(ctx) {
  const { pathname } = new URL(ctx.request.url);

  if (pathname.startsWith('/static')) {
    return await ctx.env.ASSETS.fetch(ctx.request.url);
  }

  return new Response(HTML, {
    headers: { 'Content-Type': 'text/html' },
  });
}

export async function onRequest(ctx) {
  const { pathname } = new URL(ctx.request.url);

  if (pathname.startsWith('/static')) {
    return await ctx.env.ASSETS.fetch(ctx.request.url);
  }

  return new Response(HTML, {
    headers: { 'Content-Type': 'text/html' },
  });
}

If so, is there a way to serve those static files without a middleware?
