Volume 1 Chapter 2 Part2 (2/2)

”You little!”

My hands and feet had been shaking froo but I calmly focused on his movements

He grabbed his pendant with his left hand

Looking at him I crept closer

The pendant lit up and fire started gathering in his right hand

Now!

I quickly threw the lighter into his incomplete fiery mass

Boom!

”AHHHHHHHHH!”

Disposable lighters were shoddily built to the point where it could explode si summer It would certainly explode if you threw it into a fireball

But this is Xed Actually Xed(4)

I injured a minor Plus the opposition seeh place If that kid calls his

The kid rolled on the ground nursing his burns, and his guards behind him looked at me with shocked expressions And as if they fearedoff as well

I personally believe that I have a single good trait That is, in er, panic and nervousness aside I instinctively do whatever needs to be done first

As I stomped on the accelerator I went back the way I came to the forest If this was a normal world then this child wouldn't have to be stepped on, and there was no way that all those people would have only watched (Of course, not like such things don't happen) And the fire that came out of that damn kid's hand It's hard to think of him as a human like me

As I looked forward and drove, I thought that I ht actually have crossed dimensions Either that or this is the Truman Show(5)

”Who are you?”

I was deep in thought when I heard a voice beside me

It was unsteady and cracked so it wasn't a clear voice, but not to the point where I couldn't understand

”You're Alice? I'm the Hatter”

”You don't look like someone that sells hats”

”Nor do you look like one to raise a coup d'etat”

The child made a ”?” expression da child to mess it up this much

”You don't get what I'ht?”

”Yes For now”

We didn't talk again for a while To be honest I had no idea what to say I don't want to grab a injured child and interrogate it either But that can wait until after recovery But I don't know if I can enter a hospital Before that, I don't know if there are hospitals around here either

”I'm an Aless Those who sympathise with an Aless are treated like one in kind”

”Yep Tell theo on ahead”

My life was over the moment I hurt the child of what looked like a noble anyways

After driving along for a while, the day had already started to darken Maybe because this was in dense forest but night seeh a lot of things today it ht be best to rest

”Take a break I' to rest as well”

I pushed a button and reclined her seat back I had a neck pillow in the back seat so I set that up for her as well, and took off my coat and covered her with it

”……Rest”

One of my mottos

Don't do today what you can put off 'til tomorrow

I' on you Tomorrow's me
