“Gerbera? What are you doing here? Where are Rose and Katou?”

“What are you saying? The fortress you’ve been staying at is swarming with monsters, is it not? Of course I’d come to save you. Oh, Ayame. Have you been well? Did you protect our lord properly?”

“Kuuu!”

Gerbera kept her hold on me while she petted Ayame, who was still sitting on my shoulder. She had apparently come to save me. I was grateful, but somehow, she was just as unlucky as ever. Thinking how she was perhaps similar to me in this regard, I wondered if she’d somehow inherited that trait from me.

“Although, it did in fact take me some time to get here. I can do naught but apologize for that. Rose was damaged pretty badly, you see. Oh, but there is no need to worry. I simply had to leave her behind in the cave we’ve been using as shelter.”

“Rose? Hey, slow down. She’s really okay, right?”

“Indeed. She’s currently repairing her body while guarding Katou. I couldn’t bring the two of them all the way here, considering the potential danger. In any case, after seeing that she finished her critical repairs needed to function in battle, I headed off to come and save you. But, well, it took a fair amount of time to reach you. It might have taken me even longer had I not heard your voice, and the one of this screaming little man.”

“Hm...? You couldn’t tell where I was from the mental path?”

“It seems to be strangely hampered at the moment,” Gerbera said, putting her finger to her lips and scrunching her beautiful face. “I don’t really understand, but the mental path may be a little unstable right now.”

“Unstable?”

“It does seem fine at this range, though.”

“What’s going on? Is there something out there affecting our connection? Could it be...?”

I turned my gaze to Sakagami. He began vigorously shaking his head.

“C-Cut it with the false accusations! I didn’t do nothing!”

In a sense, Sakagami’s power was similar to mine. I suspected he might have used some sort of jamming, but he denied my accusation. This guy didn’t have the backbone to lie through his pain. He was a petty little rat. Still, there was no guessing what a petty person would do given the chance.

“I suppose all is well now that I’ve managed to rendezvous with you like this,” Gerbera said, hugging me tightly.

“I wasn’t sure you were still alive, especially when a portion of the fortress crumbled. The mere thought of you being caught up in the fall...”

“Gerbera...”

“Actually, I nearly died on the way here,” Gerbera muttered absentmindedly. “Just as I reached the fortress, still unable to find you and at a loss at what to do next, I got caught in some outrageously large-scale magic all of a sudden. I wonder what that was? It’s fine, seeing as I managed to escape, but if I had reacted just a little late, I likely would have been blown away into the far-off skies.”

“...”

Gerbera had apparently gotten caught in Watanabe’s wind magic.
