I decided not to care about the rumors.
I can't help but care about rumors that I don't even know if they are.
"It's common knowledge that maps sold in guilds aren't necessarily the right ones, but still keep a look at the location on the map. Like us right now, it's very dangerous not knowing where we are at all."
You're right if you do say so.
If Ciel's gone now, I'll definitely be lost on the street.
Not only will you be attacked by demons in caves.
"If Ciel's gone in this state, we're done."
"Yeah."
"Holy shit!
Ciel sounds dissatisfied with Mr. Druid's words.
When I look at him, he stares at Mr. Druid with an awesome look on his face.
Mr. Druid, too, shook his body with a bickle when he saw Ciel's expression.
"No, you're not saying Ciel's really going to be gone. Because it's about what if. What if!"
Mr. Druid's voice is shaking a little.
That's right. Mr. Druid, too, seems to be scared of Ciel right now.
I can't help it either.
From Ciel today, there are not only facial expressions, but also signs of fear at any rate.
"Ciel, you can't stare at Mr. Druid. Because I'm studying how to travel."
"Huh?
"I'm not expecting Ciel to be gone. You'll stay with me, won't you?
"Nya-yay."
I almost asked you to stay with me the whole time, but I stopped that.
I may have a good encounter with Ciel on my journey.
In that case, I want you to take precedence over your journey.
I miss you, though!
"Thanks"
Ciel's atmosphere calms down on my words.
Seems to have relieved Mr. Druid of his nervousness when he saw it, but his face is a little blue.
"Are you all right?
"Ahaha, it's okay. I didn't think you'd be so angry."
"Right."
Ciel looks at me softly.
My eyes are dripping a little.
Lovely.
"It's okay. I'm not scared of Ciel. Because I know Ciel is sweet."
Caress your head slowly.
Lovely fluffy, rocking tail.
"Pup, pup, pup."
Sola is crooked on its tail.
As usual, Sola drives normally.
I don't read the air at all.
"I'm sorry, Ciel."
"Nyah."
Ciel, who also turns a face to Mr. Druid.
Good, it got me back to the original two vibes.
And I'm surprised you're so angry.
Heh, you're a little tired.
"Would you like to go to bed today, Mr. Druid? Well, I understand that my journey is different from the rest of the adventurers."
You have to remember that.
If you act prominently where a third party is, you might get caught up in the matter with Syels.
Yeah, let's remember it right.
"It would help if you did. I'm tired just now."
Ciel's stare seems to be working for Mr. Druid.
The blue complexion is back, but the tiredness is all over the place.
Clean up after dinner and dive into the bunk.
I don't take my shoes off in a place like this so I can move right away if anything happens.
And the lights will also remain somewhat lit.
A little cramped and bright, but I can't help it.
We need to take action when we do.
"Good night."
"Nya-yay."
"Oh, good night"
"Pu ~"
"... Riuu..."
Flem's is a bedtime speech.
…………
Out of the cave.
It's a beautiful day.
The light of day shines from among the trees.
I can just see the wind is getting colder every day.
Maybe we should head for the village road.
"I'm getting used to Ivy style trips, too. Yeah."
At the entrance to the cave, Mr. Druid, who is stretching.
You look tired and refreshed.
And me?
"What do you mean?
Ah, another failure.
I was asleep.
"Well, because I'm asleep"
"Yeah, but if it was before, you wouldn't be asleep."
Oh, I see.
Sure enough, I couldn't have slept in the woods before I met Ciel.
That was the sound of the trees rubbing.
Windy days, for example, sometimes tired the other way when I slept.
"You can't feel secure about Ciel. It makes me less alert."
"You have that. Stick around, sweeten up."
I do get to sleep and get tired because I am protected by a great presence called Ciel.
When Ciel's gone, it's really a lot of trouble.
"Nya-yay."
You were listening to our conversation, though Ciel seems satisfied.
"You have to be careful not to be too sweet."
"Right."
"Huh."
You seem a little uncomfortable with the conversation now, but you can't just be sweet.
Let's be careful.
"Pu ~"
"Teri ~"
When you gaze at two voices, something is dropping.
Approaching, a black sphere rolling on the ground.
"What is this?
I look at Mr. Druid, but he's leaning his neck too.
See the black sphere again.
It looks like a stone, but if you look closely, you're breathing or it's moving slightly.
I'll poke it right at your fingertips.
And I trembled bickly, and I got a little smaller.
Apparently it scared the shit out of me.
"Pu ~"
"Teri ~"
Sora and Flem are demanding something.
Uh, in this case... do you want me to pick it up?
"Pick it up?
"What?"
"Puffy ~"
"Teriyu ~"
Mr. Druid seemed surprised, but I understood Sora and Flem's demands.
So pick up the black sphere softly so you don't scare me.
A slightly warm heat is transmitted to the hand.
Again, this looks like a creature.
"Ivy, are you picking it up?
"Yes, Sola and Flem asked me to."
"Right. I'm surprised you sleep in a cave, but I'm also surprised Ivy picks up unidentified things that easy."
Apparently, I have a little problem with my behavior.
But I don't believe that Sora and Flem will ever let me pick things up that would hurt me.
So I would normally pick it up even if the same thing happened next.
"It's a creature."
"Maybe it conveys a bit of warmth, and it's moving slightly"
A black sphere the size of which just fits in my hands.
There is no particular movement even if you watch it still.
I wonder what it really is.
"Well, I can't help being here. Let's go."
"Yeah. Flem, come on"
The black sphere holds the flems in Solas' bag.
Sola bounced with Piong over Mr. Druid's head.
And the lead is Ciel.
"Ciel, shall we go back near the village road"
"Nya-yay."
"The contents of the bag are already scary, so please don't harvest or collect them"
…………
"Ciel, you've earned enough already, so go to the village road without picking anything!
"Nya-yay."
I got a reply that looked terribly dissatisfied.
But I won't give up here.
I checked the contents of the bag this morning after sorting it out.
Mr. Druid said, "Don't stay in the best lodging in Hatau Village."
That's two years too.
Sora and Flem have demon stones in the potion.
Ciel has nuts in the ore.
When the three worked hard, a bitter laugh still leaked as to whether this had happened.
