“Are you hurt anywhere?”
“senior… … .”
I smiled and waved to Yuni and Li.
Yuni was looking at me with a frown, and Lie was smiling.
Rie slowly walked over to me and looked at her body.
“Are you really hurt?”
“little? It’s not that bad of a wound.”
In a situation where mana was insufficient, he could not avoid all of Evan’s attacks.
He ran away keeping the line so that he could not be caught, so he had no choice but to make small wounds.
“Look… … .”
Then Yuni came to me.
Then I looked around at my wounds.
It was embarrassing to see Yuni acting like this all of a sudden, not Lie.
“ha… … really… … .”
Yuni looked at me as if annoyed.
“Why did you try to save me? It was just bad luck that I met a strong opponent. Then I just have to fail the evaluation and finish it! It’s just like an unavoidable accident… … due to luck… … .”
Yuni looked at my wounds with a cry and gibberish.
I smiled at Yuni like that.
“I was lucky enough to meet such a guy, so I guess I could be lucky enough to meet him. I just think I was lucky.”
“Are you stupid? Senior, don’t you think about your own profit or anything like that?”
“… … It’s good to just help and live.”
“… … huh?”
Lie tilted her head as she looked at Yuni like that.
He narrowed his brow and looked at him as if something was strange.
Although Uni’s behavior was strange, there was no reason to make such an expression.
It wasn’t unusual for the emotions to become intense after a major incident.
I looked around to see if there was anyone around.
But nothing was visible.
Why are you making such a face when nothing is happening?
I looked at Lee and asked.
“What’s going on?”
“… … Nope. nothing.”
Lie shook her head at my question.
Yuni tapped me with a bewildered expression on my face.
“More than that, we go back to where we were. Emily is there, so get some treatment.”
“Oh yeah. Emily knows how to use healing magic.”
it went well
He received treatment from Emily and the number of people increased, so there were less dangers at night.
“Then shall we move?”
“Yes, senior.”
Lee kept looking at me with questionable eyes.
I looked at Lee like that.
“Lee?”
“… … Oh yes. Shall we go?”
… … Why are you doing that?
I was skeptical, but I moved on to join Emily’s.
“UNI… … ! Senior Rudy… … !”
Emily was hiding with Diark near the valley.
He didn’t seem to have gone far because Diark was injured.
“Emily, are you okay?”
Yuni slowly approached Emily.
“Yeah, thanks to Yuni for protecting me, there’s nothing wrong… … . By the way… … .”
Emily looked at Diark, who was sitting in front of her.
“Have you come? … .”
The way he was wrapped in bandages around his body looked really shabby.
“Can I get an evaluation in this state? … .”
“Aren’t you supposed to do as much as you can? I cannot give up like this.”
From Diark’s point of view, he seemed satisfied with not being eliminated.
In fact, it was not strange even if I was attacked by Evan earlier and lost my mind for a moment and was eliminated.
Each blow from Evan would be fatal for the first graders.
Still, it seemed that Diark endured because he was not just a wizard, but a magic swordsman who was strengthening his body.
“Yeah, you have a lot of trouble… … .”
I patted Diak on the shoulder a few times.
This guy is also aiming for a first-year senior position.
I’m really unlucky, and it’s very heartbreaking to have this happen.
Nevertheless, seeing his strong appearance made me want to support him.
“Are you ready to spend the night?”
There wasn’t much I could do to help, but I wanted to provide an environment where I could be comfortable.
Uni was the first to respond to my words.
“I will go to the stream. You will be able to catch a fish or something soon.”
“Uh, will you?”
I was a little surprised to see Uni come out so aggressively, but once he said he was doing it himself, he didn’t stop him.
“Then shall we prepare something?”
I had to make a place to sleep and a bonfire.
It was just too uncomfortable to sleep on the ground with nothing.
It was necessary to collect fallen leaves and make it like a bed.
“Rudy, come with me. Emily has to take care of Diark.”
“Oh, no! You can leave me and come. Take Emily with you… … .”
When Lie spoke to me, Diark responded quickly.
Rie looked at Diak with cold eyes.
“okay?”
Diak felt that life and gently laid his body down.
It was a very quick and concise act, although he gently laid his body down.
Then, suddenly, there was a sound of pain.
“Ahhh… … I feel like I’m suddenly not feeling well… … . I need to lie down… … .”
“right? Emily? Can you take care of Diak?”
“… … Yep.”
Diark and Emily reacted quickly to Rie’s words.
It wasn’t that Rie did anything different, but how did she react like that?
They were quick-witted guys.
“Rudy? will you come?”
Lee said with a smile on his eyes.
I let out a sigh as I looked at Lee like that.
“Don’t be too harsh on the kids… … .”
“Well? what? What’s going on?”
Rie smiled brightly and tilted her head as if she didn’t know anything.
I’m not trying to make the kids work, I’m just telling them to rest… … .
“It is nothing. will you come?”
“okay!”
Lee left the residence with a bright face.
To get short branches and fallen leaves, we had to walk a little bit from where we were staying.
As I was walking out of the residence like that, Rie opened her mouth.
“The days are getting darker.”
“Yes. Let’s get it and go back soon.”
After hearing my answer, Lie sighed and opened her mouth again.
“In the forest where there is no one… … Even the weather is dark… … It’s a little cold and eerie.”
“… … That’s right. Get it quickly… … .”
When I tried to give the same answer, Li turned her head.
“That’s not what you want.”
If it’s cold, dark, and eerie, you’ll have to go back and make a bonfire.
“Then what do you do?”
“Hey, I’m not that ignorant.”
Lee sighed and held out a hand to me.
“Give me your hand.”
“What?”
“Hold my hand.”
Lee reached out to me with a proud attitude.
I stared at Lee like that, and said firmly.
“no.”
I felt like I was being pushed too much by Lee’s push these days.
I couldn’t just do everything I asked to do every day.
The child could be spoiled.
Rie’s eyes widened at my resolute refusal.
“… … Can’t you?”
I took a step backwards as if I had never imagined it.
His face was full of disappointment.
“Why not… … .”
The confident attitude disappeared, and he looked up at me with a pitiful expression on his face.
“Big… … .”
When Li, who was usually confident, put on such an expression, my heart weakened.
With an appearance like that of Li, there is no person who is looking up with that kind of expression and does not have a weak heart.
I pursed my lips and turned my head.
You shouldn’t get hit here.
That’s just Lee’s trick.
I turned my head.
“A tree branch… … Let’s collect… … .”
well tolerated… … .
When I turn around like that and go somewhere else.
Lee grabbed my sleeve.
And he raised his head slightly and made a sad expression.
“Catch me… … .”
said one more time.
“… … .”

My heart wasn’t that strong.
“♬~♪.”
Rie hummed while holding my hand.
When people say no, you need to know how to say no… … .
How do you say no to a request with such a face?
So I took Lie’s hand and went to the branch.
However, there was a problem.
I had to let go of this hand when I was about to pick up a branch.
It’s a natural fact that if I just let go of my hand, Rie won’t sit still.
I looked at Rie with the branch in front of me.
“I can’t pick up trees like this… … .”
He said to Rie in a soft tone.
However, Lee did not hesitate.
“Sylphid.”
I immediately summoned a spirit and gathered the leaves and branches around it.
The leaves collected in an instant were all collected by Sylphid.
I thought it would be okay if we didn’t come out if it was going to be like this, but I didn’t dare say it out because it seemed like Rie’s purpose was to be alone with me anyway.
However, there was one thing Lee missed.
“Now that we’ve gathered everything, shall we go back?”
“… … !”
The purpose of coming out anyway is to collect leaves and branches.
If they had collected all this, there would be no reason to stay outside.
“… … The wind is nice, would you like to just go outside a little more?”
“It’s dangerous out there. What if I meet other people or magical beasts?”
“You and I are there, what are you worried about?”
Rie had said it proudly, but I couldn’t listen to Rie’s wishes up to that point.
“no. If you encounter even a strong beast, your head hurts. Now go back and rest. Tomorrow will be very busy.”
Sylphid, I didn’t say anything because my mana was running out, but I had to conserve my mana as much as possible.
If you want to proceed with a busy schedule starting tomorrow morning, you need to save both mana and stamina.
Lie tilted her head at my words.
“What are you up to tomorrow?”
“Yeah, the plan has changed a bit. To pull forward a little more to do later.”
“Plan… … pulling?”

My plan.
A plan that both Lido and Luna knew.
“Tomorrow we will catch the Red Dragon Hetzelling.”
