Finally, by the time Mr. Serpent had settled down, I had to, how should I say it, wipe his entire face with a wet cloth three times.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

And drool on her hair is hard to wipe off.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Big Mr. Serpent has a big tongue.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Mr. Serpent, do you know what this magic circle is?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

At my words, Mr. Serpent stares at the ground.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Then he looks at me, lifts his body slightly, then tilts only his face to the side.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Come on."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Um, are you saying 'I don't know'?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

But still, even though he just lifted his body a little, his face is higher than mine.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

That's really big.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Are you saying you don't know?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mr. Serpent nodded.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I guess I was right.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'I'm used to it with Ciel and the others, but that's Ivy for you. She starts talking to me without any sense of discomfort."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I heard Mr. Druid blurting out something and I looked at him but he shook his head.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I looked at him, but he shook his head.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Is your body OK now?　Speaking of which, what did you do with the magic stone that Flem made?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Oh, shoot.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I asked questions one after the other.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Kuru-kuru!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mr. Serpent squealed, and then he quickly lowered his face until it was at my eye level and stuck out his tongue.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I was impatient to see if he was coming to lick me again, but this time he was different, and there was a gray stone on his tongue.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I took the stone from his tongue and stared at it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It looks like a stone I have been seeing a lot lately.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Could this be a magic stone?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Kuru-kuru."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mr. Serpent nods once and then squeals, and I know he is correct.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

That beautiful magic stone seems to have used up all its magic power.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Too bad.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Moreover, this former magic stone has somehow been split in two.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What's wrong?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mr. Druid comes next to me and peeks at my hand.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The magic stone is broken.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I don't know what kind of magic stone it is, so I can't say for sure, but it must have been overloaded to draw out its magic power."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Load?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ah, when the power of a magic stone is forced to be activated, or when it is suddenly pulled out, the stone may not be able to withstand the force and may break.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I didn't know that was possible. I didn't know that."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Turn."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Nyaun."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"P-p-p-please!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Teru?　Teru-ryu~!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

As I was looking at the druid and the two broken magic stones, I heard a happy voice.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

When I looked in that direction, I saw Mr. Serpent, Sola, and the other black spheres playing happily.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

They look like they're having a lot of fun.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yeah.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Huh?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Come to think of it, I don't hear any rain.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I think I don't hear the rain, Mr. Druid.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Hmm?　That reminds me. Has it stopped?　If so, I would like to return to the village in the meantime.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I called out to Sola and the others and headed for the entrance to the cave.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

You're still a little wobbly."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The druid places his hand on my back to support me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I can indeed walk, but I still feel wobbly on my feet, perhaps due to the effects of the previous day.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I can't help it. But it should be getting back to normal little by little."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I don't know what you mean by "should. Are you okay?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Because I've never had anything like this happen to me before."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I have never experienced being exposed to that much magic.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I didn't feel such strong magical power when I encountered the higher level demons in the book in the forest.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

And I don't know how long it takes to get back to normal, since I've never experienced it."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I noticed as I started walking that both my legs were numb?　I felt a kind of a thing.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

However, it doesn't hinder me from walking, so I think I'm okay.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I guess strong magic power has a great influence.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Is Druid-san okay?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Hmm?"　Yeah, he definitely had some rejection from the magic, but he seems to have managed it."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I see.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Is this a difference in experience?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Or is it because my magic is too low?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I think I heard that druids have higher magic power.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Oh, it's snowing.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

At the druid's words, my gaze, which had been carefully looking down to avoid falling, quickly turned forward.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What caught my eye was the white snow outside the cave.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What?　It's snowing. Oh, is the cold settling in?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Thank God, it's snowing, although we don't know what happened.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Will this be winter as usual?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Or is it a temporary thing?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

There is still an element of uncertainty, but for now, let's just be happy that it has turned to snow.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Could that magic circle have something to do with it?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I felt a cold on my back when Mr. Druid said that.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

...... seems possible.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

And maybe I am in the middle of the problem again.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

And I'm too late to realize that.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What's wrong?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

No, I'm just wondering why I have this tendency to get caught up in things."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

He said, "Eh. ............ Oh, I see. Indeed."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I was unwilling, but very convinced.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Ppppp~'

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Huh?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Sola's voice?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I turned around and saw a huge shadow.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Geez!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Click.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Mr. ...... Serpent, I wish you would stop coming behind me without a sound.'

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I was so surprised that I let out a great yell.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Embarrassed.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Kururuuru?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The huge shadow was Mr. Serpent with everyone on his back.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

There was no sign or sound, and the druid was quite surprised to see him right behind us.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

In any case, he quickly put his hand on his sword.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Thank goodness I didn't pull it out.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ivy, let's go back to the village and report back to them. It's a little colder now, and you never know when that cold and rain might come back.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm not sure I'm going to be able to do it. Mr. Serpent, watch out for adventurers who may come here."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Coming?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Did you not understand that I tilted my head?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Adventurers will be coming to see the magic circle we saw earlier, so if you don't want to be seen, you'd better stay hidden."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Kururu."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

This purr is more of an 'I get it', so he seems to understand.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

By the way, Mr. Serpent is very smart.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Are you waiting here for the adventurers?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Kuru-kuru."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

You sound different than you did earlier, 'no'?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

So, he will not be there when you come back?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Will we see them again?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'll see you around, okay?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Kururu."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Good.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ciel, can I ask you to be slime?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ciel immediately becomes slime at my words.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yeah, fast change as usual.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I put everyone in their bags and close the lids tightly so they don't get wet from the snow.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Take care, Serpent."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Kururu!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Serpent, be careful because there is definitely someone out to get you."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Kururu."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Wave your hand and walk out of the cave.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It is cold, although the cold has calmed down.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

We head for the village at a brisk pace.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ivy, are your feet okay?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What? Oh, I'm fine!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Before I know it, the numbness is gone.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Thank goodness.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I was worried it wouldn't heal.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm really glad.
