Why am I joining Inukami-senpai's training?

Commander Siglis and the knights accompanied Kazuki, didn't they?

We received the same request for Hero Kazuki's training,

but I refused since you had just come back from the forest.

However, His Majesty petitioned me again last night.

I can't refuse him a second time.

I see...

So you'll be their healer in case of emergencies.

Take it easy for three days and two nights.

Wow, I was so surprised!

I didn't think you'd be joining us, Usato-kun!

And you brought Blurin, too!

You must be trying to help Blurin and me get closer!

No, I just didn't have a choice because I'm still the only one Blurin likes.

As indifferent as ever, Usato-kun.

It's nothing!

Let me introduce you.

They'll be joining us on our expedition.

This is Aruku the knight and Corrin the mage.

It's a pleasure.

I look forward to working with you.

Thanks. It's great to meet you both.

Wait, Aruku... Have we met somewhere before?

Yes, I normally work as a castle gatekeeper.

That's right!

Hero Suzune.

Y-Yes?

The healing magic Usato uses isn't omnipotent.

It can cure poison and mend injuries, but it's all over if you die.

Don't overestimate healing magic.

I understand.

Well, you trained under Siglis. I'm sure you'll be fine in most cases.

I've got nothing to say to you.

What?

What? You dying for some advice?

N-No, that's all right.

She'd just hurl abuse at me!

Off you go, then.

Your mentor is really strong.

What do you mean by that?

Nothing! Come on, time to go!

The Wrong Way to Use Healing Magic

#5 Usato, Back in the Forest!

Sir Kazuki!

What are you doing?!

Well, I'm doing practice swings...

That much is obvious!

I heard you just returned from grueling training yesterday.

I can't believe you're back at it so soon.

Well, I got a full night's rest.

I'm fine, Princess Celia.

Are you sure?

You're not overexerting yourself?

Not at all.

See? Look!

V-Very well, then.

Still, please take care of yourself.

Kazuki came back that exhausted?

Yeah, but he told me he was happy to get so much combat experience.

He took down lots of monsters on the plains

near a forest called the Darkness of Llinger.

That's where we're going, too.

The Darkness of Llinger...

I wonder if Blurin will feel nostalgic going back there.

By the way, Usato-kun...

Is Blurin just going to stay asleep?

Come again?

If he's asleep, well...

Can I pet him?!

It'd be okay right?! Just a little!

Just a tiny bit!

What gives, Usato-kun?!

That's what I should be asking.

What's gotten into you?

That's some attitude after slapping a lady's hand!

Have you developed a new fetish?

I have no idea what you're talking about.

Are you awake, Blurin?

In that case, walk on your own legs, okay?

Hey, now, you okay?

Now's my chance!

Blurin, I'll carry you!

Here! Come on!

Wait, Senpai, that's not...

I-I did it! He's so fluffy!

So this is Blurin's... warmth...

S-Senpai!

Seriously, could you not get yourself hurt before we even do any fighting?

Sorry, Usato-kun. I made you use your healing magic already.

I mean, I don't really mind that part.

Multiple creatures detected up ahead.

Both of you, please stop there!

Is it monsters?

No, it's...

Tch. Noticed us, did ya?

We were planning to ambush you after we surrounded you.

A knight from the royal palace and a mage?

Go ahead, drop all your valuables!

We refuse!

Yeah? You sure?

We got you far outnumbered.

Who the hell are these guys? Bandits?

They aren't scary at all.

U-Usato-kun...

Senpai, don't worry about small fry like them.

Those are real bandits!

I've never seen any before! They actually exist!

Senpai, you really are incredible...

Th-This is bad!

They have a blue grizzly with them!

N-No, take a closer look!

It's just a cub! There's nothing to be afraid of!

H-He's right.

We should catch it and turn it into a pelt.

That's completely—

Completely unforgivable!

Thank goodness. He's still alive.

That was amazing, Senpai!

Great control!

Of course. I practiced a lot, you know.

All right, Senpai! You should go all-out here!

Worst case, I can heal them.

Go all-out?

She can't use that magic in melee range!

Get her, boys!

Go, Senpai! Mow them down!

Could you not say it like that?

Great job, human stun gun! No, human electric eel!

I'm actually going to get mad if you keep that up.

That shit ain't fair!

If you can see that, surrender!

Another reaction?

Incoming fast.

What?

Boss!

Fall boars?! Their habitat should be deeper in the woods!

Blurin, thanks!

Senpai!

U-Usato-kun!

We'll be fine! Hold on tight!

Senpai! Are you all right?! Senpai!

Y-Yeah.

Wait, this place...

It's the same place I was in before.

Which means...

There's a waterfall ahead!

Senpai, take a big breath.

Understood.

...sato-kun! Usato-kun! Hang in there!

I'll carry you somewhere safe.

I'll protect you.

I'm the kind of woman who always repays her debts.

Inukami-senpai, I'm fine now.

Also, that's embarrassing.

D-Didn't you wake up a little too fast?!

I was just resting a bit after pulling you out of the water...

More importantly, let me heal your wounds.

Th-Thank you.

I'm sorry things turned out this way, Usato-kun.

Please don't apologize. I'm glad we fell together.

Still...

Never thought I'd end up here again.

This is where my captain tossed me for my training.

There are tons of monsters stronger than fall boars here.

The Wrong Way to Use Healing Magic

No food?

I wish we had at least a day's worth...

Usato-kun, shouldn't we leave this forest as soon as possible if it's so dangerous?

It's going to be dark soon, and the weather doesn't look too good.

We should find a safe place to take shelter and then head back tomorrow morning.

That's true.

But where will we find somewhere safe?

I slept in the trees last time. Do you think you could do that, Senpai?

I've never climbed a tree before.

I've always wanted to, but I was never allowed.

Is Senpai really the sheltered daughter of some rich family?

Actually, that's perfectly possible.

In that case, let's rest there.

We'll stay dry even if it rains.

And it's safer than just wandering into the woods.

Yeah... That's true.

Then, um... why don't you change clothes for now, Senpai?

Yeah, I think I will.

Don't peek, okay?

That response is a little hurtful!

Usato-kun, are you ready?

Yup! Let 'er rip anytime!

I still don't really appreciate that wording... but here goes!

That's awesome!

Now we have dinner for tonight, Senpai!

Okay, take care of this next, please!

Leave it to me!

Fire!

I'm so glad you're here, Senpai!

I-It's nothing worth crying over.

It's so warm...

Fire is just the best.

Sorry, Senpai. I didn't mean to put you out.

N-No, don't mind me.

I think you've gotten even more...

What did you say?

N-Nothing!

Venom monkeys.

You know what they are?

I've read about them.

It's my first time seeing them in person.

They're coming this way!

They aren't very ferocious, but don't touch them. They're poisonous.

Come on. Don't be scared.

Wh-What are you doing?! They're poisonous!

Be that as it may, I've already been taken by their intoxicating cuteness.

Come on. Don't be... scared...

What did I tell you?!

They're missing? What do you mean?

Corrin sent word via her familiar.

They encountered an unexpected herd of monsters

and got separated from Suzune and Usato.

I wasn't sure if I should tell you,

but Celia said I shouldn't hide anything from any of you.

Did you send out a search party?

We're gathering one as we speak. They'll set out first thing in the morning.

Tomorrow will be too late!

I will go by myself at once.

Sir Kazuki!

Hold on there, Hero Kazuki.

You're...

Hero Suzune and Usato are probably together.

If so, they'll be fine.

Usato is my subordinate.

He won't die so easily.

And as long as Usato is fine, Hero Suzune will be, too.

Thanks for the meal!

Man, roughing it survival-style is a cinch with you around, Senpai!

Do you think of me as just some convenient camping tool?

Not at all! I'm just grateful from the bottom of my heart.

Well, I'll leave it at that, I guess.

We should take turns sleeping. You go first, Senpai.

N-No! You must be tired after using so much healing magic!

You first!

You sure? Okay, I'll take you up on that.

Usato-kun...

Are you asleep?

No, not yet.

What is it?

How do you feel about being summoned to this world?

How do I feel about it?

Do you want to go home?

That's a difficult question.

I want to go back, but at the same time, I don't.

I don't want to go back.

You're not going to ask me why?

Do you want me to?

I do.

I can guess why you don't want to go home.

You like this world a lot better than were we came from, right?

Yeah.

I have no lingering attachment to our old world.

I want to abandon my empty self,

along with my family and my friends, and stay here in this world.

I've always dreamed of this...

A chance to free myself from my shackles.

There's nothing holding me back here.

I finally have the freedom I've longed for above all else.

I don't think it's wrong to feel that way.

What's with that face?

I mean, I wouldn't blame you for being completely disillusioned with me.

I always felt the same way.

I wanted to change my mundane everyday life, and my mundane self.

So it sounds like we're the same.

Usato-kun...

When we first arrived, all I worried about was not getting in your and Kazuki's way.

But now, I'm a part of the Rescue Team,

and I've steeled my resolve to protect you, Kazuki, and the people of this kingdom.

What about you, Senpai?

Me, too. I want to protect this place as a hero.

Well, then, let's save the people of the Llinger Kingdom together.

It has nothing to do with our old world.

We'll protect the place we've made for ourselves here.

You've gotten to be so dependable, Usato-kun.

And you've become really human, Senpai.

You were like some untouchable flower back home.

Really?

You say that, but you always seemed so cold toward me.

What? That's not true...

Well, it's fine.

Rather than being admired,

I much prefer a closer relationship.

I'm going to sleep! Goodnight!

Are you getting shy?

I'm glad we got to talk. Goodnight, Usato-kun.

This should be the right direction...

Either way, let's watch out for monsters.

Right. I'll be prepared for battle.

Usato-kun!

Yeah.

Blurin!

Hold on a second! You're too heavy for a surprise attack...

D-Dame Suzune... Sir Usato...

Aruku!

The bear cub suddenly ran off while we were searching in the forest.

I thought maybe he'd picked up your scent and gave chase.

Y-You did a good job.

Blurin must have caught your scent, Usato-kun.

Very impressive, Blurin!

Blurin?

Usato-kun, what is this place?

This is the den where Blurin used to live.

His parents were killed by a giant snake monster.

I see...

Blurin...

Hey, Usato-kun, is this...

I think he's urging us to leave.

It looks like Blurin has decided

that his place is by your side, Usato-kun.

Well...

Let's head back, Usato-kun.

Yeah, let's go back...

to where we belong!
