"Duh... what do you think, nya..."

Nina asks me out of breath.

I hear it, shifting my gaze from Nina to Baldy Taka, checking my status.

Finally, the HP of bald taka was restored four times in a single [Rest].

This is a feat, even though we only had one or two out until just now.

Symptoms of bleeding have also eased.

It may not help much in battle, but it should be possible enough to heal a few injuries.

"Guh!"

"Pep!"

"Sure Ni Improvement Citekitelutte"

"Yay... Nina, I was magically remembered..."

Nina collapses fluttered.

Soon the jade rabbit dives under it and supports Nina's body.

I've been using MP quite a bit, so I'm tired.

That's it.

It's magic enough to cure a few injuries, but there may be some use in Harbor Street.

If you keep practicing, you'll stretch out.

I untied the bald taka and freed him.

I felt guilty because I shook it, and it wasn't meant for meals in the first place.

"Pija?"

"Pijaa?"

"Picha, Picha!

"Pi, Pichaa!

They were both wondering face-to-face, but they came to the conclusion that if they could escape without fitting, they could escape.

The two flew to the sky, fleeing with their bulimia and their wings winged.

The jade raven looked up at the bald taka at all costs.

"Hina... ah..."

Nina, who was counting on Jade Rabbit, groans bitterly.

When I heard that voice, I had a slightly unpleasant feeling.

This isn't just a magic exhaustion fatigue.

Nina lifts her arms weakly and covers her own mouth with her palms.

"Keho, keho!

Finally, I coughed.

If that's all, it's still good.

Cough should be an early symptom of the disease.

It should be at a stage where the status anomaly hasn't even appeared.

If you don't think it's a good idea, you can move it around with a [rolling].

It was supposed to be, but Nina's hand had a red splash on it.

Blood. Nina looks at her palm and then slowly turns her face towards me.

"Ah... Oh, sorry, don't..."

Before I run out of words, close your eyes.

The weight of the symptoms is obviously different from that of the jade rabbit.

In the early stages, you shouldn't get sick all at once just coughing up.

Different in demons and humans?

In a hurry, I'll check Nina's status.

[Nina Niefa]

Race: Ferris Huma

Status: Curse (Small)

Lv: 8/60

HP: 19/27

MP: 5/24

The symptoms already appear abnormal.

Why not? Because you're using too much MP and your resistance to the curse is dropping?

Or was it originally because of the strong resistance to the curse of the jade raven?

Was it a failure to believe only one precedent and assume it was okay, even though it was indeterminate element painting?

No... this isn't what it is.

The discomfort was slight.

Sometimes you look more sorry than you need to, or occasionally give an awkward look in strange places for no reason.

Unusually long respite to onset in the first place.

Maybe [dragon scaly powder] is hardly effective, and Nina was also resistant to it, what an easy thing to think about, but it wasn't.

Nina has been hiding her early symptoms.

He acted as if he wasn't feeling well on the surface as much as possible and suppressed coughing, I guess.

If I knew the symptoms were coming, I might have thought they'd take me to the city right away.

Nina must not have been ready to return to the city yet.

However, if that is the case, there are parts that do not fall into your heart.

That Nina should have no reason to hide the [dragon scaly powder] if it had developed before that, since it had been quite a few days since we met.

And then, that the sensitive jade rabbit couldn't have noticed that Nina was hiding her symptoms.

I keep my eyes peeled at the jade rabbit.

The jade raven looked away at me unexpectedly.

Tamaki, you... taught Nina about [Dragon Scale Powder] before me.

I knew you used to [talk] without me, but was that also related to the progression of the symptoms of the disease?

"Sorry...... Nasai"

The jade rabbit shrinks and gets smaller.

What are you thinking!

If we don't make it, Nina's gonna die!

... Well, now I can't help being angry.

I guess Nina herself was the conclusion after thinking about it.

Blaming Jade Rabbit is a mistake.

If this happens, we'll have to send it to Harbor Street as soon as possible using [rolling].

"Nye......"

Yeah?

What is it, a jade rabbit? What's missing?

"Harbor Street...... Nye. Mot mot, far point Kara come tatte. Direction mo, no u...... '

... What does that mean?

"Nina, go home Ritakunitte...... Word teta. Dokoni row attemo, how to nitte. Limits Made, Together Niitite, Dakara...... '

That's why you told me where to lie!

"GUOOOOO!"

When I rang my voice absurdly, the jade raven shuddered and folded my ears, even smaller.

Then at least say that to me...

... Even if you told me, couldn't I do anything?

Sure, I have no idea what kind of situation Nina has lived in.

I don't even know what kind of stream I was in to become a slave and where I was brought from to Halenae.

It may have been harsh for Nina to affirm that we had no choice but to take her to the public.

But I couldn't afford to have other options.

If I were human, I'd have been able to hit something else, but I'm just a dragon.

"Ghu......"

I'm sure Nina was going to leave even though she said Harbor Street was approaching if the symptoms got worse.

It's visible that if I get near the city, I'll panic, and if they say so, I'll back off. There's nothing else.

That's how he was going to die in the desert.

... Will I make it if I keep rolling all the way to Halenae now?

Since I have no idea how fast the symptoms have progressed since the status abnormality appeared, I can also say that there is hope in that regard.

I'm just relying on uncertain elements.

If you're actually going to do that, you should find out about La Plus in a while.

I don't really want to use it because I'm not sure about the range of valid events or whether it's reliable or not, and it smells dangerous... once and for all, it should be helpful.

I just don't think Nina wants to go to Halenae or anybody else in the first place.

What am I supposed to do?
