　We haven't decided where we are going. ---Sinorn, Oshashio, and Dong, who were struggling to organize everyone in place of Athos, said.

　They said they were aiming for a place where everyone would feel safe. The griffons and Seafo could not carry such a large number of people, so everyone was on foot. The griffons and seafo are keeping an eye on us to make sure we are not in danger. They said that alone was a big help. If it weren't for the griffons and Cifo, it would have been very difficult to go south like this.

　As we continued on our way, we heard that the people who had gone out to look for Mr. Athos had almost been followed by humans. I had been too busy to ask why the people who had gone out to look for Mr. Athos had not returned. I heard that they had been trying to somehow sway the humans to return to the village, but they were afraid that if they did, the location of the village would be known. So the gryphons found them and managed to get rid of the humans who were trying to follow them.

　We didn't even know where to go. But he said that the southern part of the forest was supposed to be untouched. At least, not by the kingdoms of Fairytorov and Migga. So we had to escape for now.

　I will do what I can do.

　And I want to protect them. I don't want to lose any more loved ones. I don't want anything sad to happen to them. What do I have to do for that? What should I do?

　That was all I could think about for a long time.

　It was night. It was the second night since I escaped from the village. Yesterday, Lan held my hand and said good night. The child griffons were by my side. Raymer and the other adult griffons and all the adult beastmen took turns keeping watch at night. I wanted to help, but they told me that the children could sleep. I told them that I was just grateful to have my contractors helping me keep watch at night.

　At night, I saw Gaius trying to get somewhere. I chased after him, afraid that he would go away like he had done when Athos disappeared.

Gaius!

　I thought I had to call out to Gaius, so I raised my voice.

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

　Gaius looked at me with a surprised face.

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

　I hadn't been able to talk to Gaius properly since that day. Both Gaius and I were upset about the death of Athos, and then everyone in the village was upset about abandoning the village.

'Lelunda,......, I thought at the time, you've learned to speak out loud like that.

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

Yes,....... I have to speak up, I thought. ......

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

　I thought, I have to speak up. The most important thing to remember is that you can't speak. I'm not good at speaking, I can't say that I'm not good at speaking.

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

Yeah. ......

　Gaius sat down on the ground. I sat down next to him. I noticed that Cifo was peeking at me. Gaius didn't seem to notice. He seemed to be watching us as if nothing was wrong.

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

　We had a short conversation.

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

He said, "Dad,......, he died, didn't he?"

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

　Mr. Athos is dead. I can't see him anymore. Gaius's face twitched with sadness.

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

'Why did ...... father have to die like that,......? Because we were beastmen?　Because we weren't human?　How could they do such a terrible thing to him?"

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

　I feel the same way as Gaius. I don't understand why they had to die like that just because they weren't human. I don't know how they could do such a terrible thing.

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

　Gaius is sad. Gaius looks pained. I reached out and squeezed Gaius' body.

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

"Lerunda ......?"

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

Gaius looks sad. I'm sure you'll be happy to know that I'm here to help you.

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

　Gaius cried when I said that. The actual "Athos" is a very good name for a person who is a very good person. I cried along with her. I thought, "I'm so sad, why?

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

　After we both cried as much as we could, I was told, "Lelunda, go away ......," and I sat down next to Gaius again.

I sat down next to Gaius again. "...... Gaius, I'll do everything I can."

Things I can do?"

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

I said, "Yes. I'm going to practice so that I can speak up when ...... something happens. I'll practice. I'm not good at talking because everyone is so nice to me, so I just let it go. But I thought ...... that's not good enough.

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

　I'm not good at it, but I can't say that I'm not good at speaking when something happens. The most important thing is to speak up and protect it. The things we want to protect.

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

I'm not afraid to speak up.　It might be a little uncomfortable at first, but it's not like Lelunda to talk like that.

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

I'm not sure if it's a good idea to start out with a less Lelundian way of speaking. And I can do more. I can do more.

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

"Why do you think that, ......?"

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

"...... Yeah. Gaius, you're not going to like me, but can I tell you about a maybe?"

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

　I looked at Gaius, who was sitting next to me, fearfully. Gaius looked at me with a look that said, "I don't hate you, so go ahead. I was reassured.

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

I said, "Do you remember what ...... Nilsi told me about the godchild?"

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

The one my dad told me about, like ......, the child loved by God?　I remember you said that the kingdom of Migga attacked Nilsi and his family because of the appearance of that child.

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

I remember that. I might be the ...... godchild.

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

What?"

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

　Gaius sounded surprised. I was scared. I was so scared that I looked down and talked.

"A protected child, a godchild. My twin sister. My sister was taken away from me, but ......... I've always had strange things happen to me."

"Mysterious things are ......

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

When I looked for Gaius, they couldn't touch me.

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

Oh, yes, that's right, they couldn't.

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

Mother, father ...... and the people in the village. I couldn't even try to hit them.

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

　The first thing that Gaius doesn't know is that I have such a strange phenomenon. I was happy in the village of the beastmen, and I didn't think I needed to say such a thing.

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

I didn't think I needed to say anything about it, because I was happy in the beastman village. That's why I was able to protect Gaius. I thought it was because I was a child of God. Ran says.

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

　His voice trembled. The actuality of this is that it is not a good idea to be a part of the group. What if Gaius hates me?

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

I'm afraid that because I'm here, things are happening to me. I'm sorry. I might be the reason why Athos died. ......

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

　Ran said it wasn't your fault. I wonder what Gaius would think about that. I was scared when I found out that I might be a godchild.

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

　I was scared.

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

　I was scared, but it was a gentle hand that touched me.

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

　I looked up and saw Gaius, realizing he was stroking my head.

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

'I'm just a kid, and I honestly don't know what a godson is or anything like that. Maybe it's a trigger that's happening. But---I guess he was protecting me with the power that made me think that he might be that godchild. ---If Lelunda hadn't rushed to me, I probably would have been captured by humans at best and dead at worst.

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

So I don't hate you."

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

　I was relieved when he told me that. I was scared. I was afraid that if they knew, they would hate me. I love everyone. I love Gaius, too.

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

He said, "Kamiko, you are special. Ran told me. I may not be a godchild. But if I'm a ...... godchild, I think I can protect everyone if I try my best. So I want to do my best so I don't lose them again.

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

　I think she's special. If I am really a godchild, I think I can protect everyone if I do my best. I think I can protect everyone if I do my best. I want to make sure I don't lose them. That's what I think.

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

　Hearing my words, Gaius looked serious.

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

'Me too .......'

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

　Gaius is looking at me.

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

'...... me too, I want to make sure this doesn't happen again.

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

I've been thinking a lot about it since ...... my dad was killed.

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

"I don't want this to happen again. Regardless of whether he was a beast or a human, I want to make sure that people I care about don't have to go through this.

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

I don't know if it's possible. But I---I want to create a place where everyone can laugh and live without humans attacking them or anything like that. ......

　The first thing you need to do is to make sure that you have a good time.

　(Maybe the girl, who is a godchild, tells the boy, who is a beast, her secret, and the boy says what he thinks.)
