The gears doesn’t stop.

«The search has been cancelled.»

What?

«Tell me why.»

Dad asks in the minimum words.

«We cannot use fire in the search.»

What is wrong with you?

That’s not a reason to abandon a child.

«What’s wrong with that?»

«If it was a Wolf, it would run if it sees fire. But not Berg Bear. Fire is just a landmark for him. He’ll definitely eat us before we finds Uta and Anna.»

«But……»

«So what……»

I shouted.

«So what?! Two kids! You know they’re out there, and you just shut the gate and don’t even know it! Uncle! You’re the gatekeeper, aren’t you! So! Are you okay with that!»

With tears in my eyes, I persisted.

«That’s not the only danger! Fire is a beacon of the city……. if people are coming and going, it’ll know there’s food here. A Berg Bear will never move from a place where it has food. It will live there and hunt for a long time……. Once that happens, it will be difficult to send out messengers to the adventurer’s guild, as well as merchants. The habitants of the city will die……..»

«So that’s why…….»

My dad interrupted me with his hand, stopping me from speaking.

«What are you going to do?»

«The search for the forest will only provoke it. And we’re weak. If he sees us, he’ll eat us. I’ll send a messenger to Donios. The voice is coming from a small mountain deep in the forest. The road should still be passable from here.»

«Can we search in the morning?»

«……Difficult. The best armor in this city is only two hampers of orc leather armor. I can’t tell my men to go to their sure death. I can only hope Uta and Anna are hiding out until we can call the adventurers from Donios.»

I fought back tears and listened to the old man. It’s true that when I imagine my father going out to search for them, I want him to stop. But that doesn’t mean that waiting around won’t help. There’s always the chance that we’ll get a little closer and get lucky and find them.

«Anti, Log, go home.»

«But!»

«Go home!»

I couldn’t say anything to my serious-faced father, so I took Log’s hand and walked quickly toward the house.

«Oh, Anti…….»

If we use the fire, the city will be in danger. ……

But, but the moon is not so bright today!

You might be able to hide and find them quietly.

You can’t go through the gate because the old man and his friends are there.

There’s no way to get out through the wall…….

«! Really…….»

«What? Anti?»

I let go of Log. I have to go now.

I start running.

«Anti! Where are you going!»

A water gate is a channel that draws water into the city’s fields.

It’s a simple gate with a pulley that opens into a reinforced channel. At the moment, there is a wooden gate at the top that is out of the reach of children. Uta and Anna got out of here before this was put up.

Now, I, Anti Kythira, am, to be honest, a little girl.

No, I mean, I’m a little girl body shape.

I’m about a head shorter than the others in my class.

My breasts are going to get bigger.

My butt is…… not so big.

Gusu.

In other words, I can manage to get through this floodgate!

Shikushiku shikushiku……

I took off the cane and turned the pulley.

There was a chirping sound, and a small hole was made in the wall.

I’ll get wet, but there’s nothing I can do about it.

I still have my hair in the gears. I’m sure it won’t get stuck.

«Good, good! and…….»

The back of my body got wet, but I was able to get through rather easily.

I’ve been able to pass.

«Gosh, you stupid hero! If I find you, I’ll beat you to a pulp…….»

I turned my gaze toward the forest and immediately noticed something strange.

«It’s on fire…….»

A little further into the forest. A light was spreading in the middle of a small mountain.
