389. The Resolve to Avoid a Reunion

Still hiding behind a wall, I peek at Millia.

It’s really her. I’m not inflicted with the〖Hallucination〗status, so what I’m seeing is definitely not an illusion.

Ooohh!!

It’s been a long time since I last saw her status, and look how much she’s grown!

When I first met her, she was just a village girl who only had a few magic skills, but seeing her now, she must’ve been busy leveling up.

She gained a lot of magic skills too.

Millia then suddenly looks behind her, and I end up hiding in panic.

I once drove their village into ruin and killed Gregory.

In Millia’s eyes, I must be just another monster who wanted to evolve and get stronger by fighting the Little Rock Dragon.

I can’t let her see me. Besides, we have an important mission to do.

Still…… that was close. She almost saw me.

Or, should I have been bolder?

I mean, if she saw me hiding from her, then wouldn’t I look more suspicious?

I’m currently humanized, so she won’t even recognize me anyway.

“…… What are you doing?”

Volk asks as he sees me hiding from a girl with a white robe in the distance.

Meanwhile, Alo is just looking at me with her cheeks swelled up.

“Y-You’ve got it all wrong…… this is just, a force of habit…… you see, I overheard that blonde adventurer over there saying that she was invited to the party too…… and, I was trying to get some information……”

I point my finger to Millia and her blonde-haired companion.

“I’ll be going shopping now, Meltier-san”

“Right, I’ll go on ahead”

Millia then gives a small bow and walks to a different street.

After seeing her off, Meltier yawns and walks straight ahead.

I tried to go after Millia, but then I tripped on something and fell on the ground.

Looking below me, I noticed my leg was wrapped in spider web.

“Thanks, Nightmare”

Alo tries to pat Nightmare’s head, but she gets pushed away.

Apparently, Alo requested Nightmare to stop me from my tracks.

So she listens to Alo and Partner, but not me……

“Don’t use that skill in this city, you might get caught……”

“R-Ryujin-sama, if you want to know more about the party, then why didn’t you try to follow that person”

Alo points her finger at Meltier.

“Eh……? Ah, y-you know, I figured that…… maybe we could ask her companion instead?”

While yes, following Meltier might give us more information about the party…… but if you ask me, the difference between following Millia or Meltier is as wide as the gap between heaven and earth.

“Ryujin-sama!”

No, really.

It’s true that this is personal to me, but it’s also the important kind of personal.

Believe me.

But, like…… I can’t help it that I want to follow her.

Even if I get to talk to her, Millia will think that I’m just some random stranger.

And even if she knew who I am, the conversation could get awkward.

“What do you want to do? If she’s someone you know, I could take these two with me so you two can have some privacy together”

When Volk said that, Alo looks at Volk.

Don’t even try Alo, you should know how strong Volk is. But still……

“Volk, you…… you know how to read the mood……?”

“Are you trying to mess with me?”

“S-Sorry”

Volk’s first impression of being an impulsive knucklehead is already deeply engraved in my head that it became a surprise to see that he can actually read the atmosphere.

“And…… I’m happy for your concern, but it’s alright. It’s best if she and I…… don’t meet anymore. I’m okay now Alo, we have pressing matters on our hands”

I give Alo a pat on the head while maintaining a smile on my face.

Alo knows that my smile is just a facade and hugs me on the waist.

“…… I-I went too far, I’m sorry……”

…… I still can’t believe the irony.

I originally intended to learn〖Human Transformation〗just to have a relaxing conversation with her, but we can’t even meet face to face anymore.

Still, I’m glad I got to see her again.

I don’t know her reason for coming here though……

Looking back, I glance at the sight of Millia walking away.

This may be the last chance I’ll get to see her again.

Thank you, Millia. And sorry… for everything.

I wonder if she still resents me somehow.

“Oh, forgive me…… but I’m in a hurry, so could you let me pass through please?”

“Aww, what’s the rush? I, the great Thermal, am inviting you over, you know? You should be honored. Congrats!”

Millia has just been met by a strange guy. And, that was a terrible pick-up line he just said.

His hair was long, stretching down to his shoulders.

He has a slender body, and he wears fit armor.

His nose is pointy, and his long eyelashes match his tight-looking eyes, making him look young.

Despite his young-looking face, he’s still fairly handsome.

I wonder why.

But when I look at him, he would sometimes look mushy.

“I-I can’t, Meltier-san wil get worried”

Millia attempts to walk around him, but then the man grabs her by the wrist.

She tries to shake his hold off, but his hand doesn’t budge at all.

“Alright, let’s go”

T-That’s going overboard……

I really want to go help Millia, but I also don’t want to get her involved with me anymore. Then, while I was doubting myself, Millia suddenly fainted.

M-Millia……?

H-He poisoned her?!

When? I didn’t see him inject anything. How dare he do this to Millia.

“Hey, what’s wrong, babe? You feeling alright? Are you sick or something? I’ll take you over to my place so you can rest, ‘kay?”

And with one leap, I rush over to them.

You’ve crossed the line, bastard. I’m going to pummel your baby face on a pile of dirt!
