Forty-one episodes, updated.

"I finally got it......

 

He wipes the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve and stares out at the pitch-black forest in front of him. Next to him is Bulllin and Amako riding on his back. I'm worried about the fact that she's limp, but she seems to be a beast person, so she doesn't immediately jump like a human...... Nock.

 

...... When I look at the forest ahead, the thought comes to my mind: "I'm back." For me, the forest is deeply emotional in many ways. The first time he was thrown into the woods by Rose, and the second time he was blown away by the Fall Boa's lunge and jumped into the river and ended up in ...... forest.

 

"Well, I don't have such good memories, do I?"

 

Or rather, I have only bad memories. I thought I was going to die with that giant snake, and when my stomach hurt, I almost died in a sense of dignity or pain. Well, that's where Burlynn and I first met. I have a lot of bad memories, but it's also a deeply emotional place.

Speaking of which.......

 

"Bulllin, I've noticed something very important right now......

"Huh?"

"I don't know where the cave you used to live in."

"Didn't you come here after knowing where ......?"

 

Frankly, I don't know the whole picture of this forest. I said this to Bulllin shyly, and he looked at me with eyes that looked like he was looking at me like an idiot, and then he hit me with a bear punch in the leg without hesitation. It hurts, you bastard.

Normally, he tries to bite the sword with his hand to Tsukkomi, who is not afraid to poke anything, but he remembers Amako on the back of Bullin and reluctantly lowers his raised hand.

 

"Gufu~"

"Ah, Bulllin, I'm sorry, but I'll ask you."

 

"Ginger ~", Bulllin, who snorted just like that, looks at the forest and moves his nose with a jerk. Bulllin is a monster blue grizzly who grew up in this forest, and for him, this forest is like a playground. I followed Bulllin, who started walking at a slow pace.

 

"It hasn't changed at all, here."

"It's the first time I've been here, but it's kind of creepy ......."

From the outside, the trees are dense and it looks dark, but in the woods, the sun is surprisingly shining, so it's bright enough not to be inconvenienced."

「...... I didn't mean it that way......

 

Amako squints at me as if she has clearly pulled back. Did I say something wrong?

 

"This forest is full of magic...... Humans don't know, but for a beast with five senses like me, this is a place where just being there makes me feel uncomfortable."

"Wow."

 

Is it a somewhat difficult place for beastmen with keen senses? Then let's make a grave for Bullin's parents and get out of here. He's acting like he's a kid, but he's still a kid. I can't be too reckless.

 

"How long was Usato here when he met with Bullin?"

"What? About 10 days?"

 

I've forgotten a lot, but I think it was about that level.

After all, the goal was to defeat the Grand Grizzly in the first place...... I couldn't go home, and when I asked him later, Rose asked him if his real purpose was to be beaten up by ...... Grand Grizzly.

 

"Kuku, Kukuku......"

What's wrong?"

 

Don't do it, a black smile leaks out at the unreasonableness of that time. She immediately smiled and looked at Amako, her expression twitching and she was stunned. Oh my gosh, this kid has a normal sensibility unlike his seniors, and he can't do it all the time.

 

"I feel like I'm going to blow up all the blue grizzlies out there!"

 

This time, instead of twitching her expression, she was distanced from the bulllyn that was carrying her. Even I don't have the strength to blow up a blue grizzly with one hand. But Burlin refuses to believe him.

 

......... This happens because you do something you're not used to.

I'm smarter again, and next time I'm going to try to distract the kids in a way that makes them happy.

 

 

 

 

 

After walking through the forest for a while, I found a familiar mark engraved on the tree. I feel nostalgic when I put my hand on the sole, which is lined with something like a sharp knife.

 

"It's been more than a month since I first came here...... There was a lot of war with the Demon Lord's army and so on, so it feels like a long time ago."

 

This is a landmark that I carved so that I wouldn't get lost in this forest.

If this mark is close to the one I remember, it means that there is a Grand Grizzly nest nearby.

 

"Come on, let's go."

"Gua ......"

"Are you worried?"

 

Stroking the head of the bulllin, which was squealing quieter than usual, he looked at the place where the cave that was his nest was located. After defeating the giant serpent, Bullin carried me out of the forest without going to the cave. ...... Perhaps Burlin didn't want to face the death of those two parents.

I couldn't comprehend the death that was too sudden, and I just challenged it with a grudge against that snake.

 

―――I tried to die.

 

"Your father and mother, don't you? ...... You're my buddy, so you're going on a journey to help Amako's mother, right? So reassure them before time passes."

 

I learned a lot by attending the burial of those who could not be saved in the battle against the Demon King's army. I don't know if I'm good enough, or a lot of things, or something else...... My first thought was that I needed someone's help.

I'm sure they'll work well together, but I don't like it. Rose? I'm going to die. On the other hand, Bulllyn is kind of like they went through the dead together. He's still slower than me, but he's better than me in terms of potential, so I can't complain.

 

"Grr

 

With a squeal, Burlin steps forward. When I tried to follow, relieved by his unwavering steps, Amako got off the back of the bulllyn and looked at me as if to say something to me.

 

「...... It really helps my mother......

"What?"

 

Didn't you believe it?

Amako's words hurt him slightly, but he and her begin to walk in the direction that Bullin had walked.

 

"I'm sorry...... It's not that I don't believe in it or anything like that...... I couldn't believe it was going ...... work so well."

"Ah, that's what I mean."

 

Have you ever met a healing wizard like me before? I don't know much about healing wizards because the only types of healing wizards for me are Rose or Olga.

I'm going to ask you at this time.

 

"What kind of person was the healing wizard other than me?"

"It's not interesting to hear, is it?"

「......... Let me hear it."

 

Amako's expression calms down slightly, but I would like to ask at this time. I don't know much about healing magic in general.

Come to think of it, when I first came to the lifeguards, Tong was talking about healing magic...... I didn't have a very good reputation in this world.

 

"In the magical city of Luqvis, a neighboring country of the Ringle Kingdom, there was one healing wizard."

"...... the Magic City?"

"It's a city with an academy that fosters magic, and it's not a country made up of individuals like the Kingdom of Ringle, but it's made up of people from all over the world."

「...... Do you feel like an international student? Amako is there?"

"I snuck in, and it was easy to use my foreknowledge to create a hole in the guard."

 

This kid is aggressive. His courage to jump out to save his single mother is amazing, but above all, his ability to act is extraordinary. Combined with the magic of predicting the future, he may be invincible when it comes to stealth.

 

"The people I was going to meet were bullied, because they can handle powerful magic and are rare enough to earn a reputation in the Magic City...... Healing magic is just a rare ability for humans ......."

「...... Even though it can heal poisons and wounds...... It's just rare."

"You can use magic to heal wounds, and most wizards don't even fight poisonous opponents."

 

Is there a need or not? According to the story, magic can be used regardless of aptitude if it is just to heal wounds. That's why you can't use a healing wizard who has a potency on it.

 

"So, don't you know that healing magic can cure some diseases?"

「......... It's rare for people to be able to use it to that extent...... There are doctors who can cure diseases without resorting to magic, so they don't seem to attach much importance to it."

"There are doctors in this world...... too."

 

I've never been cured of a disease, but I saw the difficulty at Olga's clinic. It is cured by wrapping a high concentration of magical power so that it penetrates the body of a sick person.

It's not external harm like injury or poison, but physical harm, and that alone makes a big difference.

 

"There are subhumans and beastmen passing through there, and it seems that it is dangerous unless you have a lot of ability...... For a little while I was indebted to the beastmen there. But I left right away......

"It's a good idea...... And who can use healing magic?"

「...... He wasn't the kind of person who would listen to me...... Even if they foresaw it, they didn't even look at it, let alone help it."

"Oh, that's ......."

 

Is there such a thing as bullying in any world? If you can only measure the value of magic by its superiority or inferiority, it may be better to ask Rose to do it once.

 

-- The healing wizard who is being tormented.

That person would even be able to turn a bullied child into a shura in about a month.

 

As she reminisces about Rose's training and basks in nostalgia, Bullin stops walking in front of her. In front of the bulllin is a bush growing prolifically. Seeing this, Bullyn suddenly growls.

 

"Grua!!"

"What's wrong?"

 

...... If you look closely, it's the bush I was looking into to observe the Grand Grizzly. Unable to answer my question, Bullyn jumps into the bushes without looking at me. Amako and I followed it through the bushes and came out into a wide area.

 

There is a cave where Burlin was born and raised, and where his parents died. The Grand Grizzly is a cave where there should be nothing left, but Bullin is glaring at the back of it and growling.

I didn't really grasp the situation, but when I saw a creature coming out of the depths of the cave where Bullin was glaring, I got a point.

 

"Guru ......"

"Grua...... Whew!"

 

Two blue grizzlies, maybe a couple? It came out of the place that used to be the home of Burlin. For the time being, he stands in front of Amako and begins to concoct a healing spell, opening his legs half a step so that he can escape at any time. It's bigger than Bulllin, but when you can't escape...... You have no choice but to deal with them.

 

"Bulllyn, calm down."

 

For the time being, I try to talk to him, but Bulllin doesn't seem to back down. One half of the opponent's blue grizzly also threatens me as if to be wary. I'm not particularly scared, but it's bad when Amako attacks me, and even though I can predict the future, it doesn't mean that there aren't any ifs.

 

I looked at the other as I looked at the one that was on guard -- the blue grizzly, which was a little larger than the other, looked at me and squealed in fright, then jerked back. ......... Hmm?

 

"Usato, that blue grizzly is scared."

"Are you scared?"

 

Is there anything that scares me? It's not a tough face like tongs, and the face is normal. Do you think she has an aura that intimidates those around her like Rose?

I don't want to be intimidated by ...... blue grizzly. When I met the Blue Grizzly, there were only two Blue Grizzlies, the only ones I met on the way back from the forest with the now deceased Bulllyn's mother and Inugami-senpai.

 

"Maybe...... The blue grizzly I stunned?"

 

If you look closely, it's very similar to the blue grizzly I tackled down. Both the size and the shape. Then it's understandable that you're scared of me.

For the time being, when I waved my hand lightly, my body trembled and I stepped back. ...... I don't know how scared I am.

 

「......... Whew!"

"Stop Usato, I'm so scared."

 

Why am I angry now?

As I looked at the two horses in front of me, feeling a slight sense of unreasonableness, one of the blue grizzlies that was threatening me shouted at Bulllin, who also shouted in response. The exchange took place many times, and I didn't know what it meant, so I had no choice but to stand there not knowing what to do.

 

The exchange lasted for a few minutes, when the chirping suddenly stopped, and the two blue grizzlies ainsured their vigilance on the bulllyn.

...... Did you solve it?

 

"It looks like it's over, and Bullyn isn't angry anymore."

"I'm jealous of how you feel."

 

It's a special skill that Inugami seniors would really want. Looking at the two blue grizzlies, they are glaring at us, but they seem to have let their guard down for the time being. I wonder if Bulllyn introduced me to him?

For the time being, Bulllin is also the son of the Grand Grizzly boss, who was also the boss of the forest. He may have had a voice of his own. ...... But what did I explain to the blue grizzly that was scared of me? I feel like I'm even more scared than I was before.

 

"Usato, what did you really do?"

"Normally...... I just knocked him unconscious by ramming him."

"A normal person can't stun a blue grizzly by ramming it."

 

Inugami-senpai didn't pull it, but Amako pulled it again. When I told him that I wasn't doing anything that great because I could only faint, he was drawn even more.

I don't understand the common sense of this world anymore. Why, in the world of sword and sorcery, there must be many people who can do this.

 

"Huh...... At once. Let's make a grave."

「......... Guru"

 

I put down my backpack and Bullin nodded slightly.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

"Okay."

 

The grave was very easy to make. There was no way that I, a high school student, could make a full-fledged grave, so I built it with a relatively simple structure. A criss-cross of a handmade board is thrust deep into a mound of earth made near the cave, and a large amount of fruit is placed at the base of the criss.

 

Make two of them, one large and one of the other size, and get down on one knee in front of the larger grave.

The Grand Grizzly was told by Rose to defeat him, but in the end he couldn't defeat it. As a result, I just ran around the woods until dark.

 

「...... I wanted to beat you."

"What are you talking about?"

"Grua ......"

 

You guys have gotten along a lot.

Until a while ago, Bullyn was also jittery in front of the grave, but he must have already said goodbye. Even though it's a temporary time, Burlin knows that it's his parents' grave. That's why...

 

"Quah"

"Hmm?"

 

A mysterious paw that scratches its leg. Suddenly, I looked at my feet and saw a blue grizzly kid who was much younger than Bulllyn biting my leg. What a cute girl. It's not that I don't have eyes for cute things, but I was unexpectedly fascinated by a small blue bear that looked like a mascot.

I lifted the bear as gently as I could, and the blue grizzly that had returned to the cave looked at me and shouted angrily.

Maybe this is the child of those two. Before it escalates into an unnecessary fight, he slowly lowers the bear and urges him to go to his two parents.

 

"It's okay."

"Quah?"

"Sure, it would have been hard if I had been Inugami-senpai, wouldn't it?"

 

It's mainly Inugami-senpai who gets into trouble! While thinking inwardly, I started to prepare to go home while feeling warm when I saw the little bear who ran to my parents according to my words.

 

"There's another kid Blue Grizzly, huh?"

 

At the sound of Amako's voice as she watched the cave, she turned around and saw the little bear that had just run into the cave being carried by the parent blue grizzly at her feet, and another bear was following the parent.

 

"The magic element that has returned to the earth will be revived as a new life."

"It's better to be born than to be resurrected."

"That's true."

 

It's just one sentence in the book, and it's just one sentence among many theories, but when you look at a scene like this, it doesn't seem like you're wrong. On the one hand, he was deeply emotional, but on the other hand, Burlin sat lonely, perhaps because he had superimposed himself on that little bear.

 

"Then let's go home."

「...... Gow"

 

He stood up on his limbs, glanced at the cave, and then walked back the way he came. I don't have any regrets about Bulllin with this. I brought him here because I wasn't sure I could say anything witty, but I didn't expect there to be other Blue Grizzlies in the cave where Bulllyn was.

It wouldn't have been very fun for Amako who had followed her. All I did was come to the woods, make a grave for Burlin's parents, and meet the two Blue Grisleys and their children.

 

"Amako wasn't funny, was she?"

"Well, I'm glad I came, I got to know Usato."

 

It's about me. Maybe I was suspicious. ...... Well, it's more of a problem than that. I remember the directions, but I don't know if I can get home before it gets dark.

The sun is going down, so I think we need to hurry up a bit.

 

"Usato, are you going to ride the Bulllin on the way back?"

"What? It's impossible, isn't it?"

「......」

 

I thought it was something because he was silent when he went, but Bulllin's back was surprisingly tight. The vibration seemed amazing. So what should we do?

 

「...... I'll carry it?"

"That's ......... I don't like it."

 

I was told that I was quickly turned away. After all, she is a 14-year-old girl, even though she is mature, and if she had accepted it, I might have turned her down.

If this had been Inugami-senpai, he would have been devoured. He's not that reserved. I think that's a good place.

 

"I'm the one who followed you, and I'm going to ride the bulllin."

"Then let's go home late."

 

It's okay if I'm a little late, if I do, I'll be angry. Amako, who is hesitantly riding on the back of Bulllin, looks at something in the air and is dazed.

Maybe I didn't realize it until now, but I'm looking into the future. Oh, he must be trying to detect danger in advance by using magic on Bulllin's back.

 

I look at her and think suddenly.

 

"...... a foreign country"

 

The outer country to which Amako would have gone. It's a place that's somehow different from the Lingle Kingdom...... If I were to go there, how would I behave? You ...... hide that you are a healing wizard, hide that you are from another world, or face it head-on with nothing to hide.

 

"Will it become?"

 

Let those who look down on healing magic say so. I have an obligation not to lose sight of my purpose. Amako, who saved my senpai and Kazuki, asked me to save my mother, and I can never betray her.

So, I will help your mother as a way to repay her for helping her friends...... Whew.

 

 

...... Well, despite these thoughts, it's up to Lloyd to decide whether to go or not.

 

Currently, we are correcting the viewpoint next to the story title.
