Chapter 1.3

For that matter, whos that brother over there? I appreciate you getting us out of there. Its not like hes trying to kill us. What do you want?

Huh? You can talk, thats unusual.

Im a smart guy. So?

WellI heard that the lord of this place was doing something underhanded, but there was no proof, so Ive been hiding in here gathering evidence. And today, when I finally had all the information and was about to act, I saw you guys, so I helped you. Sowhats your name?

I shook my head.

Huh?

She doesnt have one that damn lord didnt give Master any human warmth, a decent meal, or even a name! At least, if her mother was still aliveshe was a very nice person.

Well sorry I mean, do you know the Lady of the Estate?

It aint no big deal. She used to feed me and read books to me quite often when I was visiting. Thats about it.

And that cat?

The same, and then weve been secretly taking care of Master since then.

So thats it and since we dont have much time, Ill explain quickly, okay? Are you aware of the situation?

Well, yeah.

Then lets get to the story. The Lord have been working in secret to get you killed through the towns people. I wont let that happen to you guys. Ive finally obtained enough evidence against him by today. Its not polite to say that it was a coincidence that I had to deal with those things, but I felt so sorry for the poor girl, so I helped her.

I dont care whether it was a coincidence or not thank you even that kindness couldnt be given to Master

Seriouslydamnthat person is a real piece of crap

So true.

Who is this? Who is that?

I tilted my head.

Just so you know, the lord is the most important person in this town, and his daughter is Master.

I was the child of this great man called Lord.

But he is always angry at me, and whenever he was in a bad mood he would hit me

Seriously, what a joke of a lord Damn it He shows the poor Master all kinds of disgusting things every time

I dont really understand what the cat and the bird were talking about.

For me, who cant speak, they are so accurate that I think they can see whats going on in my mind.

As he said this, that beautiful stone began to glitter even more.

Where are we going?

It would be inconvenient if they could trace you, so is kind of random.

Okay what happens to the Master after we leave?

I will just cover it up. Ill just fake it with earth magic or something if I have to.

How can they be fooled by that?

Dont worry, they will. These guys are so predictable. Besides, Im a specialist in earth magic.

Okay, well, you take care of it.

Oh, Ill leave everything to you. In fact, thanks to your existence, I now have more weapons to accuse that damned lord.

Im counting on you. But

Oh, Ill just tell the higher-ups in private about the evidence Ive gathered so far and the fact that I randomly transferred her and let her go, so dont worry, I can manage it. Our family has the kind of power to do something like that. Good luck with your new life.

The figure of the big brother who said this was gradually fading away.

A warm light enveloped us.

Well, my little sister I really wish I could have spent some time with you. Oh, and this! Heres a parting gift from Gramps! Take it!

I couldnt speak, but I did my best to say thank you with my mouth full, and the big brother smiled and gave me a thumbs up.

He told me later that the bird said it was called a Thumbs Up.

Just before the light enveloped us and made us invisible, the cat caught the stick-like object with its tail.

Then we were enveloped in light and I lost consciousness.

Master Wake~up~!

I woke up to the sound of the birds voice and saw that above me was not the familiar ceiling, but a blue sky and white clouds.

I slowly woke up and found the cat curled up in my lap, and the bird at my head.

Then I slowly looked around and saw that I was in the middle of a meadow full of grass and small flowers, and when I looked farther away, I saw a bunch of trees, big magnificent plants.

I looked around and saw that I was surrounded by trees.

The place with all those trees is called a forest or woods.

The bird told me that this place was like a field surrounded by a forest.
