Chapter 19 – I need to ask permission.

After that the bodies were buried, the commotion continued for a while, but I went home with Lisandra and Lari, the two did not seem to be feeling very well, so I told my mother and we left.

When we got home, Lisandra threw herself on the sofa and closed her eyes, looking like she was meditating and clearing her mind. Lari went straight to his room, without talking to me or Lisandra.

Since I had nothing to do, I just sat next to Lisandra to keep her company.

"How will it be going forward?" She got up and sat on the couch, seemed to have calmed down. I was a little surprised by your question, but I couldn't give a different answer: "I'm sure everything will be back to normal very quickly, don't worry."

"How can you say that after seeing all those people suffering outside? Even Mom, she was not at all well." She was a little euphoric, I don't think what I said is wrong, so I started explaining to her why.

"Listen, Lisandra. All the people who died are not going to be forgotten, that's obvious, but tell me one thing, do you really think people will be crying forever in the same way they are suffering today?"

"Do not know."

"No, they won't. Over time people will get used to the death of loved ones, and even if they are not forgotten, people will not be crying and regretting all the time because of that.

"..."

"So that's why I say that everything will be back to normal in a short time, everyone will continue to live as usual. Even with some difficulties, everything will return to normal."

"Now that you say ..." Lisandra seemed to be accepting what I was saying. I don't know if this way of thinking is totally correct, but this is how things work for me, over time the pains will lessen.

"So don't worry, just keep living as before, you will see that everything will go back to how it was before." With my words, Lisandra was quiet on the sofa, seeing I was also silent and said nothing more.

And this continued until Lari returned to the living room, I also had a little conversation with her about what happened when I left the house, without worrying that Lisandra was overheard about it.

The way she said it before, it seemed like she wanted me to let my mom die just to save me. Okay, my mom wouldn't die even if I left her alone, but I managed to save a lot of people.

But even though I told everything that happened, and the number of people I helped, she didn't seem sorry for what she said. She turned to me and started talking as if I were the most important thing in the world, and that she would do anything to protect me.

She also started talking about how she felt when I left the bedroom door, it was as if everything had been taken from her, she almost ran after me, but she held on for fear that I would be irritated.

When I heard that I was a little scared, is she so obsessed with me? Does she like me that much? I never thought things would reach that level, Lisandra also seemed uncomfortable with her way of speaking.

But I chose to ignore it, I don't think it's bad to have a beautiful woman obsessed with you, but I also made her promise that I wouldn't say anything like that again. I'm sure it wasn't her intention to be rude saying that, but I still felt a little uncomfortable with those words.

*****

It's been two weeks since everything happened.

The people who had been injured were already completely healed, so the doctor had already returned to his city. But another important thing was that everything was getting back to normal as I had said.

There were still people traumatized or sad about what had happened, but most people had already gone back to work and were acting normally. Lisandra also seemed to be accepting more of what had happened.

'Now that things are calmer, I should focus on that.' I was lying on my bed looking at the Status points, thinking about how I would go to the forest without being noticed. Because like it or not, I still couldn't just go to the forest to hunt monsters, I never even got out of this village.

I think I should have asked my mom or dad to travel somewhere, just being stuck in this village was not good for me, but now that so much time has passed, there is nothing to do.

'But it won't be that difficult.' I'm going to ask my mother for permission to go to the forest, and if she doesn't allow it, I can just go out at night, it's not difficult for me to do something like that. Although I am in a child's body now, I cannot control my sleep as well as before.

I closed my Status and then got out of bed.

When I was getting ready to leave the room, my door was opened by Lari: "Lunch is ready, you can go and eat now." She had a smile on her face, as usual.

"Okay, I'm on my way." I put on my shoes and then went to the dinner table, and there I found Lisandra and my mother who were already sitting waiting for the food to be served, so I sat down too.

This is a great time to talk to my mom.
