A monster?
You think he's a monster at such a bright hour? For a moment, Almark doubted Sicily's words. But I don't have time to hesitate.
Sicily, what kind of monster is that?
Almark gently grips Sicily's shoulders with both hands and asks with a calm voice to avoid scaring her.
"Whatever it is... I don't know, it's big and scary"
Sicily snorts and answers, but she doesn't get the gist.
"What color were you wearing? Like a man or a dog?
Almark asks impatiently. We'll get the minimum information, then we'll go to the woods.
"I don't know. Sicily, I'm scared... and I haven't seen it very well."
Sicily shakes her head. Almark crouched down and gazed at Sicily.
"Come on, Sicily. You must be a magician. I'll help Eldo. I promise. So tell me what you saw."
Sicily reacts to the word "magician." I saw Almark with big eyes wet with tears. Almark nods with a strong look back at the eyes.
Sicily hesitated a little and then replied.
"... brown hairy... middle-headed... I think the horns grew in the first place..."
Good job, Sicily.
Almark stood up.
"You go back to the school building and call the teacher. I'll go to the forest first. [M] You can go alone, right?
Sicily nods gently.
All right, hurry up.
As Almark looked back at the school building, he saw the usual threesome walking around here.
"Torque!!
All of a sudden, Almark called out his name loudly, and the three torques stopped their feet as if they were in a hurry. But soon the torque came back with a sarcastic tone.
"What, are you playing with me again for a year? It might suit you."
"Eldo was taken by a monster!
Almark continued to ignore the words of torque.
A monster?
The torque rounds the eyes.
"I'll go to the forest first. Get me a teacher. And this kid, Sicily, please."
"Wait, wait, wait! I can't hear you!
Though the torque suddenly blocked, Almark continued.
"I'm sorry, but if what this kid saw is true, it's a contention for a moment. I don't have time to explain myself slowly."
Torque looked back at Almark with a stunned face.
"The monster has been taking me for a year... so what are you going to do alone in the woods...?
"Retrieve Eldo. I'll kill the monster if I have to."
Almark answers briefly.
"Defeat the monster....."
The torque murmured back.
Almark turned his back and ran towards the woods, saying, "Please, torque."
Torque saw Almark running away, and suddenly twisted his face and slapped his tongue. Looking back at Garaine and Deg who were taken aback.
"You guys, go with him this past year. So call the teacher. As soon as possible."
Eh?
They look at the unexpected words.
"Torque is..."
By the time Garaine heard back, the torque was already running.
"That idiot, who boasts that he can do anything but magic, doesn't know anything about this forest. I'll have to go!
