After listening to Haurvatat’s circumstances, Norn and Kanon looked at each other and nodded. They had decided to assist Haurvatat.
And they were heading towards the Cath Sith hidden village.
“Kanon-san, it’s been a long time nya.”
“Long time no see, Stella-san. Are you still buying Silver Vine Wine?”
“I don’t need to for now nya. I’ve gotten my hands on the best Silver Vine Wine nya.”
Since Stella and Kanon were acquaintances, they were engaging in small talk.
For both Norn and Kanon, simply helping because they have time was just merely an excuse. Norn was worried about Ichinojo while Kanon was worried about Malina. Furthermore, more importantly, Norn wanted to find Ichinojo and reunite him with Miri.
“We have to quickly find Onii-san and ……………… eh?”
When Norn muttered that, her mouth moved without any sound which gave her a shock. Then, she tilted her head in puzzlement as she couldn’t understand what had happened.
She was unsure whether she couldn’t voice the words, or that she really didn’t speak at all.
“Norn and I are currently kind of working for a new master and due to the contract with that master, we cannot say anything in relation to that master.”
“I see. But if that is the case, is it alright for you two to come without consulting your master?”
“Yeah. Since our master told us that we could move about freely for a while.”
Kanon said as she laughed happily.
Even though she definitely shouldn’t have been in a joyous state, she was really laughing happily.
“But I think it would be better if I don’t meet up with Malina. She finally attained independence after all.”
“I think it will be fine. Malina has grown after all.”
“Really? It’s okay if that is the case. So we are now headed to the Cat Sith village?”
“Yes. Please hold on tightly.”
Kanon didn’t press any further as she was pressured by Haurvatat’s expressionless face but she couldn’t imagine that Malina, lover of cute objects and especially cats, can maintain her calm in front of Cat Siths. And her expectations were generally correct.
“Well then, let us hurry.”
Saying that, Haurvatat carried Stella on her back and ran off. Of course, she took Norn and Kanon’s pace into account and didn’t do so at full speed. Since she understands that her own strength is drawn out by Ichinojo. In contrast, she was worried about Kanon. Unlike Norn who dives into the labyrinth daily as part of the vigilante squad, she was worried about Kanon’s ability, considering she was a Blacksmith.
However, she saw that unlike Norn who’s body axis was beginning to shake, Kanon still looked like she had a lot of leeways.
(So her physical strength might be greater than Norn-san … maybe because blacksmithing is a job that requires physical strength.)
