... live free!

Then, when we returned to Mr. Yumir, we told him that we had seen what we had just seen.

I understand, but I'm surprised the bandits suddenly come to defeat us.

Mr. Yumir was smiling bitterly when he heard our report. Well, I went to see what was going on first, and at the same time I defeated one of the bandits on guard, so I might be a little surprised...

"(For now, let's go the other way.)"

Then I went ahead and arrived at a place where I could split up again. However, this time, unlike before, I can see the light from one side and I can't quite hear it, but I can hear the voice.

"(Looks like there are people on that road..." There are no lights on this road, but it may be more likely that there are people.....) "

"(Shall we see how it goes again?)"

"(To the boulder, I'll go now. Yua-san, would you like to come with me?)"

"(I-I don't mind......)"

"Yua said that and looked towards me.

"(Go ahead, I'll wait here)"

"(Got it?)"

"(Well then, we'll take a look ahead, but if anything happens, please let me know immediately.)"

(Got it.)

Then Yumir-san went ahead with Yua.

"(Now, what do I do alone for a while?)"

In the meantime, when I examined the surroundings using magic, there were about 20 people who were leaking light, and there were six or four people who went forward by Yumir. I don't know for sure from here, but I thought there might be another branch. But no one seemed to be moving, but I was a little worried about Yumir and the others.

"(Since Yumir-san is strong and Yua is sensitive to signs, will you come back when you realize that there are people?)"

and waited for Yumir-san to come back.
