“Just when I was thinking we had cleared the sand time, this happens.”

“It definitely feels like a full dose of the Sage’s nastiness. There’s no opening and no letting our guard down.”

Julius and Subaru both sighed after moving away from the flowers to a place where they could be confident in not provoking the oiran bears.

Inside the carriage, Emilia and everyone else were in agreement. Emilia was patting Meili’s head.

“If you weren’t there, Meili, it would have been terrible. Thank you sooo much.”

“I-it would have been dangerous for me surrounded by that many of them. That’s all.”

Meili looked away and responded curtly. But there was a faint redness to her cheeks. It was adorable that she couldn’t quite hide how she was really feeling.

Either way, though, Emilia was right. Meili had made a huge contribution. And in that sense, so had Ram when it came to actually breaking through the sand time.

“How is your body doing, Ram?”

“…Is this the time to be worrying about me? We don’t have the leeway for that.”

Ram fired back in a slightly hoarse voice. The night was dark in the desert, so he couldn’t see her face clearly. But Ram’s already pale skin looked even paler than usual, indicating just how exhausted she had to be.

But she didn’t pay any heed to Subaru’s gaze and looked over at Meili.

“What about that flower field, Meili? Can you get all of those demon beasts to get out of our way with your ability?”

“Like I said before, it’s difficult. If there were only a hundred, I could do something, but when it gets to be more than that, it’s hard, even for me.”

“A hundred, huh? That is already quite remarkable. Unfortunately…”

Julius looked over toward the flower field. Even at a glance, it was clear that there had to be more than a thousand of them there. There might even be more than ten thousand. It wasn’t a number that Meili could handle.

As a heavy mood settled around them, Julius held up two fingers.

“Our options right now are to continue forward or to go back.”

“Is going back even an option? It won’t solve anything.”

“Can you be sure? It’s entirely possible that when we passed through the sand time that it just happened to connect here. If we pass through a different crack in space, it is possible we might end up at another place even closer to the tower.”

Subaru was skeptical of that possibility, but he had no hard evidence to deny it, either. The fact was that there were three different sand times.

They had passed through the sand time during the night, but there was a chance that the morning and midday ones were different—

“…Spare me such naive optimism.”

As Subaru was considering that, Ram’s quiet voice rang in his ear.

It was none other than the person who had worked the hardest to get through the sand time who glared at Subaru and Julius.

“Would the Sage who has gone so far out of their way to reject outsiders really leave an easy path someplace? There’s no way.
