Preparation for Departure (1)

Chapter 13: Preparation for Departure 1 

Arisugawa talks to the thief, and she says this might be due to teleportation magic. 

-x-x-x-x-x-

According to her story, magic exists in this world, and there is also a mage who possesses magic powerful enough to teleport or something close to it.

"So, does that mean I was teleported here?"

"Maybe, but I don't know if it could have been that white cat who did it."

If that's the case, I'll need to find a white cat or a mage who can use teleportation magic.

"A strong mage. Come to think of it, you said the Dark Orcs use magic, right?"

"It's true they might be able to, but who knows what would happen if they did."

Even if I were to go see them, as she mentioned, there was no guarantee my wish would be granted, and at worst, I could be killed by them.

"But I don't think staying here will solve anything. If you don't mind, can I go with you?"

"Yes, you'll be safe in this village, but it'll be hard to find strong mages around here."

We promised to meet at the village entrance tomorrow morning, and I parted ways with the woman.

Piyo, who had been waiting for so long, got angry and said I took too long!

"Sorry, sorry, let's go."

"Piyo is also going on an adventure! I want to go on an adventure with Hiro!"

Somehow, I thought she'd say that. Just as I was thinking about how to gently refuse her...

"You're saying something stupid again! Are you going to cause more trouble for everyone?!"

Piyo's sister, who was probably listening to what was happening, stopped her again.

"Piyo wants to go too."

"No! Stop it! You absolutely cannot do this!"

The older sister slapped Piyo on the head.

"Ouch~ Piyo is going too!"

Piyo ran toward her grandmother's house, rubbing her head.

Well, my guidance is... I had no choice but to walk in the direction Piyo was running.
