Chapter 88 – To The Elven Country

“――Welcome back, Rasty-sama”

“Ah, ah… I’m back, Alfred.”

Alfred looks puzzled as he alternates his gaze between me and Skor. It’s no wonder because Skor is clinging tightly and not letting go. It seems like Skor was really lonely.

A little further away, Havamar also had a strange expression on her face.

“Well, well, big brother. Shouldn’t you have taken Skor with you after all?”

“Yeah. Next time, I think I’ll wait until she wakes up even if she fainted.”

I didn’t expect to make her so uneasy. Looking at Skor, there are faint traces of tears in the corners of her eyes. When she looks at me like a child, I feel weak…

“I’m really sorry, Skor.”

“No, no… I was just a little lonely. I’m sorry for being selfish.”

She’s forcing a smile!

Seeing her looked so sad like that.

I need something to talk about… That’s right!

“Oh, by the way, Strelka has agreed to let us use her ship. Now we can go to the Elven country “Borodin”!”

“Eh, it’s been decided!?”

“Ah, the negotiations were successful. I’m thinking of leaving soon.”

Skor was deeply moved and clung even closer. She rested her small head on my chest… Kuuu! Endure it, me!

I’m already excited, but I’m getting even more excited. Anyway, it’s good that Skor’s mood has improved.

“Finally, big brother. You’re going to Borodin.”

“As I said before, the purpose is for agriculture.”

“I understand. Maybe I’ll come along too.”

“Of course. We’ll leave Alfred in charge while we’re away. It’s no problem.”

Alfred placed his hand on his chest and bowed deeply, saying confidently, “Leave it to me.”

In that case, the only one left is Edu.

When I turned my gaze towards her, Edu shook her head with a bland expression.

“…No, I think I’ll stay behind and take care of things.”

“Why? It would be helpful if Edu were there.”

“I want to map this island, or rather, explore this island. Especially, I want to check the dungeons again. I’m also curious about the symbol of ‘Einherjar’.”

“You mean you want to investigate?”

“Yes. I will report the results properly.”

Mapping the island. In other words, making a map. I never thought of it that way. Maybe it’s better to have Edu, the great sage, go around. Besides, I’m worried about Alfred being alone. Let’s split up.

“I understand. I believe in Edu.”

“…Rasty-sama. …Yes.”

Edu nodded, looking strangely happy.

Well, if the person herself is satisfied, then it’s fine.

“Okay, we have preparations to make, so let’s leave in two days. Skok, Havamar, please take care of it.”

“Yes, Rasty-san. Let’s have a fun trip!”

“It’s good to go somewhere other than the island once in a while. I’ll accompany you, big brother.”

Both of them were excited.

Finally, we have a rough plan. In two days, we’ll board Strelka’s ship and head for the Elven country “Borodin”――!
