Scarlet feather moon, twenty-first.
The sky is clear with no one cloud to see. The downpouring heavenly grace will also make for a warm, comfortable, peaceful and easy day.
Fall sunny mornings with no more to travel like that. Before Midir College, a bunch of frivolous carriages arrived.
A huge wheel pulled by a successful Hummer, an iron box plated cabin sitting on top of it. A grand stand-up that is likely to be bounced off without even teeth, such as a coarse raider. Its special vehicles, called armed carriages, are mainly used for the escort of dignitaries, etc.
Four of those armed carriages. In addition, twenty-four accompanying riders drive large horses.
It is that group of people who seem to be able to defeat it if it is a little fort, that is the Expeditionary Force - the Second White Phoenix Corps - that aims for the original Bo.
Here we aim for the Rubiltori mountainous area, where the confinement of the squad of seventy-five men - far southwest - has been confirmed, in addition to the Refuge and Belgrette, and Dr. Locke.
"Um, finally. So, suppose we go......!
Dr Locke, carrying a small bag, heads for the carriage in an exasperated foothold. It's like an elementary school student who celebrated the day of the excursion. It's a leaking researcher in white, but is it because of his exploration of the unknown or because of his first trip? Maybe both.
"All right... let's go too, Belko"
"Yes."
Liquid protection and Belgrette also nodded at each other,
"Then I'm coming, Mia."
"Ugh, yeah."
Drop your gaze on the little girl who's coming to drop you off.
"I'll definitely be back safe... and I'll get you a souvenir. There's a lot of people this time, Amanda and Oretta, and it looks like they'll be back early with an advance when they're done. Don't worry, I'll wait."
By the way, about an hour before the troops arrived, Claria contacted me.
I was freaked out to be struck by that curse of "onole... onole..." even once again, as I did when I was a refeit, but your sister's greeting, which was supposed to be harsh, was really pale, "both of you, take care," etc.
Ask why,
"I'm not alone this time... and most importantly, I have a sister Amanda and an older sister. No element to worry about."
That was it.
"Even Mr. Claire said it was like that, and you don't have to worry about it like that. It's not like it was at the ref's, and if you need anything, I'll write to you."
"Yeah......"
"What the fuck, Mia boy? I've been completely quiet lately."
Ten days after the first expedition to Bobo was decided.
Where did you go for the usual cheerfulness that seemed more tiring to watch, and Mia had grown up like the cat she had borrowed.
We spend the same amount of time together during breaks and meals, but it was also like the sky above, and the nights and so on were often pulled up to our rooms early.
"Oh, you know, Lugo, Belle! Here, this!
Such a girl had taken something out of the bag she was raising on her shoulder and offered it as she remembered.
"Is this...?
If you take it, it was a doll the size of a doll that would fit in the palm of your hand.
Dog -, is it? It seems to mimic some quadrupedal animal, but it's not good enough to flatter it. The length of the hands and feet is also inconsistent, and even if you put it in a flat spot, it's going to collapse with the cotton.
"Oh, this... could it be, Piaga?
"Ugh, yeah! That's right!
You were happy that Belgrette told you, Mia broke her face.
"Piaga... what the hell?
"It is a grass-fed beast that lives in the meadows of warm regions and is also known as the protector of the journey. Hope your journey is safe, this is the kind of amulet you get at the local souvenir shop...... Ah... Mia, maybe... for us, you made it yourself?
"Ugh, yeah......"
That's what they ask, and the little girl nods embarrassingly.
"I can only wait all the time... I also get souvenirs, but I can't give them back anything. So at least I was wondering if there was anything I could do..."
"Could it be Mia... you've been making this since our expedition was decided? So..."
That's why I went back to my room early every day. To be completed by ten days after the drift guards embark on an expedition.
"So I'm not good at all at this kind of thing... no matter how many times I make it, no matter how I do it, I can't be good at it... I ended up with so much, I even worried about giving it to you or not..."
I get sober as I speak.
That's why I wasn't well.
"Oh, I'm sorry. It's weird. Give it to me. If it seems to get in the way......, wah!?
Naturally, as a matter of course.
Liquid shield, though light - was holding Mia.
"... thanks, Mia. Best amulet ever. Absolutely... definitely, I'll be back safely."
"Ugh, yeah......!
"... Lugo, you're just having a little tear, aren't you?
A little jitty-eyed Belgrette brings in such tea in a gentle tone.
"Then, fool, it's nothing."
Yeah, why do I rose when I do this to avoid being seen crying? Wipe down.
"Mia, thanks"
"Yeah!"
He is also embraced by Belgrette and his usual brightness returns to Mia's face.
Each of them wrapped a Piaga doll from Mia into his pocket.
"Whoa, no more amulets. All right, I'm coming!
"There you go!
Waving to Diegos and Edvin, who also rushed to drop me off, the two walk to the waiting gate of the carriage.
"All right. I don't know what's waiting for you, but suppose you finish up and go home!
"Mmm, right!
- That's how we all got together. The Second White Eagles left the college for the far southwest of the Rubiltri Mountains.
"What is it, Lord Mia? I wonder when it will be soggy. You don't have to worry about it."
"Yeah......"
The look on Mia's face, whispering small to Edvin's words, but dropping off troops that keep him away, doesn't clear.
"This is the strongest Rain Deal formation I've ever heard of. You'll be waiting in peace."
"Yes, what is it?"
"Do you miss me? Lenore's still coming back for a while."
"Mm-hmm. Just..."
With a slightly trembling voice,
"Lugo... Belle... I kind of feel like I'm going very far. So I guess I won't be able to come back...
In response to that uneasy monologue, a low but serene voice answered.
"Don't worry. I want to sing about college life without missing anyone... I said so myself, it doesn't mean he won't come back."
Heard in the boy's heart at the heavenly banquet earlier, Digos gently puts his hand on Mia's head.
"Yeah... yeah, hey"
Mia smiled weakly as she stared at the end of a group of disappearing streets.
You two are right. There's nothing to worry about.
- Yet.
I can't help but wipe a little anxiety swirling in the back of my chest.
