It was set to be your father's sister, so to tell you the truth, aunt.

At first I thought of calling her aunt, but I felt uncomfortable and decided to consult with my father and call her sister.

At first I called her oneesan, but she told me not to call her adventurer or traveler so politely, so I changed to oneesan.

When I called my mother, why did it bother me, but when I called you oneechan, I was wondering.

"Oneechan, that's sugar!

"What? Oh, this is salt?

"Yes, it is."

As I watched your sister's condition, I tilted my neck a little.

Look at the containers containing sugar and salt.

Same size in the same shape.

The difference is that the color of the lid is different.

But it's red and orange, so there's no mistake...

"What's wrong?

Your father comes home from a tour of the area.

"Nothing. Dad, how'd it go?

"Nothing abnormal happened around here, so I'm fine. Let's go after breakfast."

"Yeah, she's not coming back."

I see. Well, it'll be fine because it's Sierra. "

"Yeah."

She hasn't come home since she ran away yesterday evening.

When will you be back?

I know that Sierra is strong, but I am worried.

I want you to come home soon.

This morning, we added leafy vegetables to the rice balls we made and the rest of yesterday's soup.

It should be delicious with the added flavour of vegetables.

Oniichan, come on in.

Your sister gives your father tea.

Oneechan feels more natural than when setting up a couple.

Originally she wanted oniichan, so she was secretly happy that it was set up as a brother and sister.

"Now, clean it up... oh, no!

My father looks at me in a hurry.

"What's wrong?

"You don't know where this place is. We"

Hmm?

... ah, that's right.

I only know the approximate location because I've been guided by Siel in the woods.

Besides, I've been walking my sister in an unscheduled direction ever since.

"Yeah, you're lost, Dad."

I see.

That's just not a good idea.

My father looked awkward in my words.

It's my fault.

"That's not true. Never."

It's not just your father's fault, it's both of them.

Still, what should I do?

Dad takes the map out of the magic bag and spreads it.

I'll clean it up.

"Sorry, I'll try my best to find an approximate location."

"Yeah, good luck."

Your sister is confused by my interaction with your father.

Oneechan, I need you to help me clean this up.

"Ha... yeah. What am I supposed to do?

Cut the leaves from nearby trees and scrape off the dirt from the dishes.

"Can you get rid of the dirt like this?

Oneechan washes the dirty dishes with water mixed with soap.

Finish by pouring the dishes with clean water and draining them in the basket.

Let's drain it just before we leave.

"It's over. I know where it is."

"I narrowed it down to two places... which one do you think?

Look where your father is pointing.

I wonder which one.

Around the two places from the map, it looks almost the same.

"It's hard to understand. There is a big stone on both sides to the right, and a little walk from that stone is a river... It's almost the same location, so I can't tell which one this place is."

It seems that the size of the stone is different, but it is not written to the size.

Well, it doesn't make sense unless you know the size of the big stone in front of you.

Speaking of which, I didn't hear the name of the next village.

"Huh? It's Hataha village. Here"

See where your father points.

If the map is accurate, it does not seem to be a very large village.

"This is hard if you make a mistake."

From the two locations your father found, the village of Hataha is one on the right and the other on the left.

If you choose the wrong place, you will be away from the village of Hataha.

Dad and I alone will be able to get around in a day.

I can handle the hardship.

But considering oneechan's health, you can't go wrong.

Are you okay?

Oneechan looks at the map worried.

I've never seen a map before.

Surprised by oneechan's words, she looks up from the map.

"Really?

"Yeah... I don't know what that means, but it's fine."

"I wonder if this map is quite detailed. I'll show you how to look at the map when I have time."

Oneechan looks at the map with joy at his father's words.

"Thank you."

Terururururu ~

When the three of them looked at the map, Flem cried out louder than usual.

When I hurried to find Flem, I jumped onto the map.

"Flem? What's wrong?

It's unusual, even though you don't get in the way of discussions.

Pefu?

Sol?

"Pupupupupu ~"

"Is Sola there? I wonder what's going on."

Looking at my feet, Sola and Sol looked at me.

Hold two of them up and put them on the desk.

"What's that? Where's the map?

I got it.

For some reason, I feel happy about your father's words, Sola.

Flem, who was on the map, was being held by her sister.

But I'm a little afraid of how to hold it.

The flame in oneechan's arm also looks at me anxiously with its eyes open.

"It's okay. Maybe."

Ryu ~

Flem's pathetic voice loosened her mouth a little.

It's cute, but it's kind of pathetic.

When Sola and Sol were placed on the desk, Oneechan put them gently on the desk.

Teriu ~

Oneechan leans her neck to the sound of the flame.

Oneechan

"Why... what?

Looks like you're still not used to talking.

"It would be safer if you grabbed the flame a little harder."

Oneechan looks at her hand and squeaks it.

"Are you okay? It's kind of a bumpy, squeaky grip, and you can't do it."

"It's okay to hold on tight."

When he nodded at his father's words, Flem nodded forcefully on his desk.

Were you afraid of how oneechan would hold it?

"Okay. Next time, be careful."

Terururururu ~

When Flem rang with a soft voice, Sola and Sol rang with joy.

"By the way, what can I do for you?

Three pull-ups swinging on the desk, just like your father said.

What do you really want to do?

"Unusual, isn't it?

"Yeah, I'll come back to see you when we're done talking."

Am I interrupting your view of the map?

But why?

"Perhaps we should not move this place?

What?

"Pupupupupu ~"

Terururururu ~

Pefu

Looks like you got it right. Why?

Is that why you have to be here?

"Maybe you're waiting for Sierra?

My words make pull-ups intense.

"Pupupupupu ~"

Terururururu ~

Pefu

I'm nodding and shaking.

That's clever.

"What do we do?

"If everyone says so, I guess we should wait."

I see.

There were times before when there was no Sierra.

At that time, she wasn't there because she told me to eat, but when she moved, she didn't stop Sora.

There must be a reason why I stopped today.
