Mr. Gill leaves the room, on his feet, heading toward the city. Just a little more patience, I said in a small voice, so I nodded with appreciation.

Mr. Gill walks on with Stasta and long legs. He looked surprised when a different person turned around with a chill. Well... instead of looking good on your face, you're all black.

But some of them seemed to know Mr. Gill.

"That blackout... of Ortus...!

"I've heard they rarely show up in crowded places...?

"Wow... you're experiencing a pretty valuable experience, us. But why are you covering your face? Cool. Are you looking at me?

"Hey, don't pry.... they'll turn it off."

I thought I heard some noisy words, but yeah. It's my fault. I haven't heard anything.

Even though there's no way that such an ambient reaction isn't in his ear, Mr. Gill travels unceasingly through the city without worrying. I'm sure it's the usual thing. I feel used to Mr. Gill's handling. This would be an extra rumor if you were exposed to the bare face. Mr. Gill is super good-looking, and I don't suppose the lady person would leave you alone in particular.

... Oh, is that what you mean by hiding your face? I'm sure Mr. Gill is aware that his face attracts attention. I see. I'll hide your face. Especially since Mr. Gill's work will be like a spy, and I don't suppose he can remember his face.

But in some cases, the aesthetic can be used to gather information. If that face whispers at close range, I'm going to throw up to the extra thing.... How about delusions progress and trouble. Make sure you don't see him under cover.

While I was playing in a paranoid world, Mr. Gill was buying some kind of big cloth and this again a big cage at a store that seemed like a grocery store. I wonder what it will be used for.... Let's not pry. My uncles in the city said so!

After a quick shopping trip, Mr. Gill once again leaves the city with a refreshing foothold without getting lost. A foothold that doesn't make you feel anything like holding me. Great skill in plain sight. You're powerful!

"All right, we'll be fine if we get this far.... You've been great growing up, Meg"

Walking out of the city for a while, Mr. Gill finally strokes my head as he opens his mouth like that where he can see the forest entrance. Hey, were you in a hurry because you thought I was patient?

"... you could have walked a little slower, too, huh? Gil, I'm getting stuck..."

When I said that, Mr. Gill gave me the softest grin ever. It's handsome and sloppy, thank you.

"It's okay because I don't like the crowd either way. Thanks."

Well. I hope it wasn't impossible. Ho, and exhaled gently, deciding to ask what I was a little concerned about speaking of.

"Speaking of which, Gil. Earlier, you said extra ho shu... why extra? Not the normal ho-shoo?

"Oh...... the only original request was to investigate the cause of the suspension of the dungeon's functionality, because it was resolved in a successful manner. In that case, it was stated in the request from the outset that additional compensation would be given."

I see... I didn't think it mattered. It bothered me and I asked. But thanks to you, I'm refreshed.

There were quite a lot of guilds, and apparently they were graded. Judging from the flow of the story, it sounds like he was also making requests for an approximate guild this time, and he's sending the same requests to various places? If so, is it a quick win to make a request? What's going on with the details and everything? Plus, I'd love to ask this guild! Sometimes.

I mean, I haven't even figured out what a guild is yet, so I'm planning on taking care of it. I'd like to study a little bit.

Because I don't know if I can go back to the Hasegawa ring, or to the original world. I can't be pessimistic. In order to live, we must first find a way to work in this world. Even if it looks like this, yeah!

Mr. Gill keeps walking into the back of the woods as he talks. It's dim but I guess it's okay...... I got anxious and grabbed Mr. Gill's clothes.

I don't know if you've noticed that, but Mr. Gill will be fine around here, and he finally stops walking and gently lowers me. It is the first time on the ground in a long time.

"Well, we're going back to the guild. Ortus' building is next door to this country."

Mr. Gill has told me that as he lowered the cloth and cage he bought earlier. Huh, neighboring country!? That's a long way to go...... I thought so and asked him, if he used a carriage or something, he would get there in about five days if he just crossed the border.

Let me tell you something from modern Japan, it's not five days, it's five days.

"Normally, we're talking about. Of course we don't go to normal (...)"

"Not mundane... how to get there...?

It's an uneasy way of saying it. The invincible grin that only shows Mr. Gill's mouth amplifies a more unpleasant hunch.

"I just want to get there fast, but I need to tell you a little more about me before I do. It's about my species."

Race? Uh, not human, or...?... Yeah, this is a different world. If you don't remove the filter called common sense, you're too surprised your jaw gets to the ground. I snort a little and urge the conversation to continue.

"I am a subordinate of Shadow Eagle. Have you heard of Shadow Eagle?

I wave my face sideways as I sift to Mr. Gill's words. I would also like an explanation for "Kawawawa" but not "subhuman." An eagle is in there, and is it a bird after all...? I just look like a normal person, though.

"The Shadow Eagle is a big black eagle about three times my current height. As its name suggests, it specializes in magic using shadows. I can get to and from subspace through the shadows. I can use it in many ways, but if it's easy, I can store my stuff in the shadows and carry as much as I want."

Wow, it looks like another world. Excellent here! Magic, I'm too deep to understand! Is it okay to recognize that something amazing can be done and it is very convenient?... Are you okay, me?

"And well, using shadows demonstrates the main power, but not now. I'm human now, but from now on, I'm gonna look like a shadow eagle. I'm flying in the sky, trying to get back to my guild."

No way, Yuki flutters...... well, right? Eagle. That can fly, can't it?... a strange big black eagle who can be a human figure is a shadow eagle, right? I'm not surprised...!

That, but what about me? I can't fly, but what are we gonna do? And, from what I thought, the cage and cloth in front of me went into my eyes.... I don't know how to use this...

"Meg, get in the cage. Wrap it in a cloth and I'll grab it and fly."

I knew it!! Hiya, flying!? In a primitive and cobweb way: cages and cloths!? Scared! Scared too much!!

"... don't react like that to someone who's never flown in the sky."

That's what Mr. Gill said with a bitter smile when he saw how frightened I was. If you know, can you do something about it...? I stared with anticipation...

"By the way, you gotta get on this. You're gonna put it on my back... grip, leg muscles, offal until you get to the guild?

"Mochi!!!!

I imagined it, but it's cramping right away! Shouting in tears, Mr. Gill grinned cously. It's not funny...!

In the end, I agreed to cry because if I didn't fly away, it would be half a month before I got to the guild, and because I could do magic that I would never drop and not be affected by the wind.

This is how I got on board with the idea of death.... in a cage!
