Listen to Michelle, I'm gonna run right out of here.

Yeah, well, if you think about it, you'll see.

When Retina was captured, I destroyed the kidnapper. But I haven't dealt with the slave traders I was planning to deal with outside.

Even when Matisse was captured, the kidnappers talked about selling her to a slave trader.

Yeah, you still had the roots to deal with the people at heart.

The clouds have discovered it.

"Besides, to let my people get away, I'll stay alone or something......!

The act is exactly like mine in the past.

I still don't think that decision was wrong. If we were in the exact same situation, we would make the same decision.

But I also now understand the grief that the result has brought.

Neither Cortina nor Finia has forgotten that you have grieved my death.

"If you die - because you're really broke, Cloud!

If he dies here, now Michelle will bear the grief.

That's not all that's allowed.

Behind me rushing out, I heard Finia screaming.

"Ah, already, that's why I said it! Don't tell Nicole!

Perhaps what she and Michelle were arguing about was this result.

With this information, I'll pop up without a word or two.

As a Finia, you must have called your guard and decided you should leave it to the officials.

But Michelle, who is a party, is not.

Because we couldn't afford that amount of time, we tried to rely on the most dependable beings - me or Cortina.

But Cortina is still at work and absent. I'm not even in the country when I get to Maxwell.

I came back there, so it's only natural for me to cry.

"Ma, wait, Nicole. I'm coming, too!

I'm gonna put Finia down and come after me, Michelle.

The leg is so fast that I don't think it's a ten-year-old. But still no match for me. My instantaneous power does not allow other followers in my age.

We arrive at the nearest East Gate and often wait for Michelle. In the meantime, I kept a familiar gatekeeper informed of the situation.

We walk in and out of the gate over the weekend, and we're pretty celebrities.

It was only natural to stand out because the child would go hunting alone and, moreover, come back with an unworthy big man.

Besides, I have Cortina and Maxwell as patrons, Lyell's daughter.

I let them know I was a slave trader, so they never suspected me of reporting it.

Heard that one cloud is responding, a guard who changes his blood phase and scratches his people.

If I were a normal kid, that would be the end of the role. But even at this moment, the cloud may have been killed.

We don't have time to wait until we form a unit.

"Ya, finally, catch up -"

Out of breath with Zeha, Michelle arrives. Usually, you can't even afford to say 'good day' and say 'good luck'.

"I'm sorry, Michelle, but show me where it is"

"Ugh, yeah."

It'll be painful, she snorts in my words healthy and hurries ahead.

I want to give it a rest, but she's the only one who knows where it is.

"Come here, come here!

"Okay!

Into the woods as prompted. Occasionally I broke a large branch and leaned in the direction of travel to stick it out onto the ground.

With Michelle's guidance, we're on our way to our destination, but the rest of the guards don't have that information.

That's why he keeps the landmarks he passes by and leaves the landmarks he comes after.

But I don't know when that rescue will be either.

Scratch the numbers, arm yourself, report your presence to your manager, and get permission.

When I say military action, it's too late to put it on something. In this case, that slowness is only fatal.

"There it is!

Suddenly Michelle says so and points to the ground.

There were footprints for a few people and traces of the carriage. Deep trails would be the hallmark of a carriage with heavy luggage - a cage on it.

And the trace of the horse's hoof carrying it, too, for two heads. It is proof that a bi-headed large carriage passed through here.

"... I see. Suspicious indeed."

"Right? Cloud's fighting ahead, we need to help you!

That's what Michelle says and hurries ahead. But... no sword strike sound.

Is the distance still away, or is the battle over?

The cloud is not highly combative. I don't think I can win against five adults.

Then the end of the battle means...

"No, it hasn't been decided yet!

I shook my head and followed Michelle.

Moving on for a while, Michelle stopped her leg. And he plays his hand on his mouth, desperately indulging in screaming.

I moved my gaze further forward into her reaction.

There was a sudden interruption of greenery and a space that was becoming a square.

And there were a few men, and from the right arm - no, there was a cloud figure lying on the ground, losing his right arm.
