534 Chapter 496. (1/2)
What do you mean?
Mr. Zinal tilts his head at our conversation.
I opened the bag slung over my shoulder and looked inside, and my gaze met with Sora's.
Apparently, she had heard the conversation.
'Sora is very good at finding caves and rock holes. She'll find places out of sight, too.
Dad looks at Sola as she jumps out of the bag.
'Sola, I'm sorry, but I need your help.
”Pfft.
Sora purred happily at her father's words.
She seems to be in a pretty good mood, so I'm sure she'll find a good place for me.
'Sora, can you find a place for me, your father and your sister to hide?'
I think he heard me talking in the bag, but I have to ask him to look me right in the eye.
'Pfft~'
Sola still purred happily and looked around.
And soon, she began to move.
'Let's go. Will Jinal and the others come too?
When his father looked at Jinal and the others, Jinal let out a sigh for some reason.
'Thora ...... Oh, no, it's nothing. It's just Ivy's tamed slime. Yup. Can you do something like that?
Zinal looked at Sora and nodded at me.
What is this, should I be happy about this?
'Sora is not your average slime at all.
Garrit's words made me chuckle along with my father.
You are absolutely right.
''Pfft~''
I turned my gaze to the sound of Sora's cries.
I saw Sola jumping up and down in the same spot.
I wondered if they'd found her already?
You're early.
Sola, did you find it?
”Pfft.
A large rock with ivy tangled in it.
If you look closely, you can see that the inside of the rock is hollow.
But we couldn't get in because the ivy was tangled around the whole rock.
We'll have to cut through the ivy.
Dad took out a small knife and a small knife and cut the ivy.
As the ivy flapped away, a wide hollow appeared.
'Oh, great. Let's go have a quick look inside.
Mr. Zinal went into the hole, looking like he was enjoying himself.
He came out after a while and told me it was all right.
'Gullit, is this place okay?'
Gullit nodded at Zinal's words.
'It's okay. We've got the location.'
Okay. Well, we're going to Hataha village to have some fun.
Do you want to play?
Maybe it's about going to a bar?
For that, I'm a little concerned about the look on Jinal and his team's face.
What's the deal, they're just going to collect ...... gossip like they're up to something, right?
Don't go.
Mr. Zinal and the others wave their hands and I wave at them.
'What's up?'
My dad looks at my expression and gives me a strange look.
Did I see that much in his expression?
I was wondering about the look on Jinal's face.
Dad nodded at my words.
I knew my dad felt something too.
''Maybe he'll do something to get information about the royal capital.
Didn't you say you were just going to get lucky with the information on King's Landing?
Ivy's aware of this, right?
Does this mean that Jinal and his friends aren't just ordinary adventurers?
Dad nodded silently at my words.
That means there's more to it than just the investigators.
I stared at my dad and cowered my shoulders.
...... I guess that means I'm not going to go deeper.
'Well, let's get you ready for bed today.
I go into the rock hole with my sister who was watching me and my dad curiously.
It's spacious inside, and Ciel can lie down as well.
Let's make a bed first.
At dad's words, he takes out the necessary items from the magic bag.
My sister, who needed help in the beginning, can now prepare her bed by herself.
She doesn't have the strength yet, but she's gotten pretty used to the journey.
''Good. Let's make dinner.
Start a fire to cook dinner.
I pick up the branches that have fallen around us, but there doesn't seem to be much of them around the rock pit.
'Malia, stay here with Ciel. I'll go find some branches.
At Dad's words, his sister, who was on fire duty, nodded.
'Alright. I'll do my best to keep the fire going.
I'll pick it up as soon as I can. Ciel, take care of your sister. What about Sola and the others?
Meow.
