“Kyuuuu!”
In response to my words, Ruby gestured with its head, pointing somewhere.
That direction was toward the terrifying forest where we had suffered so much yesterday.
“…The forest?”
“Kyuu!”
Wait, Ruby is a smart magical beast that understands my words.
“Ruby, can we find water if we go there?”
“Arf arf!”
Ruby let out a sharp bark, as if answering my question.
Bingo! It seems there’s a river or something over there.
“…He says there’s water over there.”
The choice: Face the risk of starvation in safety, or gamble on hope despite the danger.
There was nothing to ponder; it was the latter.
No. Honestly, I didn’t want to go, but human survival instinct guided me toward the forest.
I hurriedly began making solid preparations.
‘If things go wrong, I have the potions from the gacha and the Healing Handkerchief…’
Recalling the usable items in my mind, I motioned to Ruby.
“Ruby, let’s go!”
“Kyuuung!”
