I’m not saying my thoughts out loud, right? Is she an esper?

[Hahaha, your thoughts were easily showing in your face, you know?]

[Ughh……]

[Ah, sorry sorry. I didn’t mean to make fun of you. Rather, I like those types of children.]

Seeing her facial expression changed, I was a little relieved seeing the child laughing with an adorable look on her face. However, even though her expression and appearance looks young, her voice and the atmosphere around her strangely feels mature for a child.

[Well, be that as it may…… Despite my appearance, I’ve lived several hundred years more than you, so you can rely on me if you’re troubled, you know?]

[……Several hundred?]

[Unn! Ah, I see, Is this your first time seeing a demon? My name is Kuromueina…… Whether you want to call me Chrome, Eina, or Kuro, feel free to call me whatever you want~]

(T/N: クロムエイナ / Kuromueina. I want to call her Chrome Eina, but I guess I’ll follow the manga on this one.)

Demon!? Did she just say she’s a Demon? She looks like a human though……

[Should I show you my horn or something like that? Alright, then how about this!?]

[Why the heck is your horn in your nose!?]

[Fufufu, I still know lots of things about the other world! Isn’t there that story about his horns getting longer when they lie? It’s something like that!]

[No, that story’s about someone’s nose getting longer……]

[Arya?]

I don’t know how she did that, but she was so confident in her lengthened horn that I reflexively throw a tsukkomi. Thereupon, the demon calling herself Kuromueina wrily smiled as she put away her horn. She then continued speaking with that smile still on her face.

It seems that Kuro has some half-baked knowledge about the other world, just some stuff she had heard from other Heroes, and she may not look like it, but she has lived for a long time, so she may have heard some stories from the past Heroes.

With an innocent smile on her face, she pushed a baby castella into my mouth. The familiar, gentle sweetness spread in my mouth and somehow calmed me down.

Seeing me like that, Kuro brightly smiled as we continued speaking while she ate her baby castellas.

[So, what’s the matter, Kaito-kun? You’ve been looking around since earlier……]

[Ah, I got separated from my companion…… and I didn’t know how to get home. That’s right! Kuro, do you know where the Duchess Albert’s Residence is?]

[Hnnn…… I’m sorry, I don’t live in this country so I don’t know where that is.]

[I see……]

[Yeah, but it will be alright. I can help you find the person you’re separated from.]

[Eh!?]

Sending a cheerful smile at me who felt a bit down, Kuro puts her hand on her coat again and takes out a necklace with a black jewel in it.

[Here, I’ll give you this! Take it and try to think of the person you were separated from.]

[Eh? Ah, okay.]

Placing the necklace on the palm of my hand just as I was told, when I thought of Lunamaria-san…… A line that looked like a black line formed and extended from the jewel.

[W- Whoa!?]

[If you follow that, you should be able to see him. That necklace has Search Magic in it~]

[Ah, thank you! B- But, this…… Is it okay for me to take it?]

[Ahaha, you’re still young, you don’t have to be that reserved. We should help each other in times of need!]

[Young huh…… Just based on appearance, you look a younger than me though, Kuro……]

[Ah, that might be so now that you mentioned it.]

Healed by Kuro’s smiled as she talked to me, I repeatedly said my thanks. This really was a great help. Thanks to this, I think I can somehow go home.

After saying my thanks to Kuro again, who have laughed and said that I didn’t need to worry about it, I was about to say goodbye when a question came to my mind.

[……Speaking of which, Kuro. Are you a boy or a girl?]

[Me? “It can change either way.” I’m a girl now, though.]

[……Is it normal for demons to be able to freely change their gender?]

[Nope. There are differences among the demons. Some are male and female just like the humans do, some that don’t reproduce and don’t have the concept of gender itself, and some that can change to whatever they want just like me~]

[Huhh… How mysterious.]

As I thought, not everything in my common sense works in this world. Ah, that’s right, Lunamaria-san is probably looking for me too. I have to quickly meet up with her.

[Anyway, thank you very much!]

[Don’t worry about it~ Let’s talk again when we get the chance.]

[Yeah.]

[See you next time, Kaito-kun.]

Thanking Kuro again as she waved her hand with an innocent smile on her face, I followed the black light extending from the necklace as I left the square.

Dear Mother, Father—– I got lost in the other world and was helped out by someone. She’s childish yet mature, ignorant yet knowledgeable, she may look like she has no clue what’s going on, but she gives me a sense of security in my heart. And I—– have met such a mysterious demon.
