Chapter 154
Ch . 154 If Today is the Last
“Guuooo”
While I’m loudly yawning, the ball rabbit appears out of the sand .
“pefu… . ”After sleepily rubbing its eyes with its ears the ball rabbit then covers its mouth for a yawn .
Those ears are really dexterous . By chance is that not an ear but an arm? It could even wield a sword if it wanted to .
The time for sleeping is over .
I still have to walk over to the port city .
Although Nina has been saying that the port city was pretty close, I have yet to see it in the distance… .
Since I don’t want to run out of time, I want to at least confirm the distance to it . I wonder if I should just fly over and see if I could spot it .
By the way, Nina is currently inside the ball rabbit’s mouth .We came to a conclusion that this was the safest way to sleep .
It would be a real tragedy were I to accidentally swallow while sleeping . Also, I’m unclean . It doesn’t bother me one bit, yeah . No, really .
Thanks to the ball rabbits skill [[Internal Storage]], the saliva doesn’t get in the way, even if you place Nina inside . There way be a little drool, but it’s not much .
Apparently there is another dimension inside the ball rabbit’s stomach that acts more like a warehouse . The ball rabbit said itself that there doesn’t seem to be anything in there . By the way, Nina had said that it was “warm and relaxing . ” The ball rabbit is seriously capable . You are better suited for humans than in deserts full of monsters, I’m jealous .
“pepu”
Nina appears from the ball rabbit’s mouth .
The ball rabbit grabs Nina with its ears and gently places her on the desert floor .
Nina bathes in the light for a bit and slowly wakes up . Being half asleep as she gets up the ball rabbit supports her with its ears .
“Oh, thanks ball-chan”
Nina caresses the ball rabbits head . These two became really good friends . But its different when it comes to another person .
“guru”
Nina, where is the port city? How long do we have until we get there?
“……”
There isn’t a reply . Why, whats wrong?
“pefu… . ”
The ball rabbit closes its eyes after spitting out a big sigh . Since she didn’t answer was it still trying to translate for me? It always translates my thoughts, so maybe I have grown accustomed to the ball rabbit doing it all the time .
Hey, ball rabbit, translate it for me . Are you still sleepy?
“pefuu”
「stomach ache, still sleepy」
It had eaten more than usual yesterday…it may be good to reduce its intake from now on . If is continues to eat as much as it wants like it is now, I feel that it would become completely useless in the wild on its own .
“pefu! pefu!”
「wake up! wake up! translation starting!」
Ooh!…
It doesn’t want its meal reduced .
“pefu”
「city, how far to get there」
“… . If we leave early, I think we should be able to see it by today . Going by memory, that large skull over there means we are quite close . ”
Looking at the place Nina is pointing too, there is something like a dinosaur skull buried there . Perhaps it is that of a dragons . I can’t imagine dinosaurs walking along this desert .
Its size is about equal to mine .
I don’t want to think that monsters of the same kind as that skull are wandering around in this desert . Its pretty old and it has almost assimilated with the sand, so I’m just going to think that there aren’t any like this wandering around .
About all I could do against the huge centipede and the ants is run, so I ask that no more strange monsters come out .
Well then…by today is it?
Instead of walking, I could reach the port city right away if I were to use [[Roll]] at full power . Should things go sour, that’s the least I could do for Nina . Also, [[Spirit Relief]] has become Lv7, so it should be easier to obtain white magic later .
I plan on practicing [[Rest]] in the near future . There is also the ball rabbit who could already use it . Should I have all of us, including Nina, practice? If recovery magic could be used, Nina’s situation in the city may change . I don’t know if I could master it in a day, but I’ve managed to succeed even a little, when I was smaller .
It may be that weak magic is easier to remember, since it isn’t really recognized as a skill . Although, it is useful in life as it can cure small wounds .
“gurua”
I should do something about it right away .
Ball rabbit, teach recovery magic, to me and Nina .
“pefu?”
「Nina as well?」
“gau”
Yeah, I think it would be convenient to remember recovery magic before Nina gets to the port town . It may make her treatment there a little better, and I also wish to learn it .
The ball rabbit reads my thoughts and turns to Nina .
“pefu”
「Before end, good to learn white magic」
“……But……”
Hmm, why does it feel like it didn’t come across as well as I had hoped…
I thought it was a good idea . I guess it’s not that easy to memorize such a thing .
If it was that easy to learn [[Rest]], then everyone would have acquired it . I don’t have that much knowledge on the subject, so there might even be a difference it the way we learn .
Its apparent now, I’m limited in knowledge . I only mainly have knowledge pertaining to a different world, but I don’t have much knowledge of this world . I may supplement it with [[Status Check]]…but ordinary people of this world won’t have something like [[Status Check]] . I did not see it in Milia or anyone else for that matter . With this development, I feel that the ability to learn skills is a lot better between me and the residents of this world .
Perhaps, I said something strange?
“Ni, Nina, but… . umm…”
Her voice is blurred and it gets smaller . I can even see that she may start to cry . What? Does she maybe have a bad memory of recovery magic?
“pefu”
The ball rabbit mumbles as it matches its face to Nina’s .
Didn’t you use [[Telepathy]] to tell her? Or did it just not get through? Listening to the ball rabbits voice, Nina tightens her lips as if she just made a firm decision .
“I-I, I look forward to working with you!”
Nina quickly lowered her head to me .
What, I don’t really know what you’re expecting of me .
There may have been some kind of misunderstanding considering the flow of the conversation just now, I only wish for the both of us to learn [[Rest]] from the ball rabbit .
