Re Istode : Things that kitsune girl do in another world

Chapter 155 - The Day Before We Departed

"Let's pack our stuff and proceed with the journey to find the Red Comet," I told Ruciel. 

"You mean now?" 

"Dishonesty said we could go anytime, so… let's greet Teria and the others. I'm sure, they know when we will depart, or rather, I will listen to their suggestions about when we will leave Uncertainty." 

Ruciel's long ears jolted. "If you say so." 

"Say." I gaze into her eyes directly. 

The serious eye contact that I did suddenly made the girl fidgety, she refused to see my eyes, then she lowered her head. "What?" She asked softly. 

"What do you think about the idea to stay here?" 

"Why, why do we have to stay here!?" She asked in panic and alert, a moment after she raised her head. 

"Because I think, this place is ideal," I started. "This place looks so peaceful, a marriage between women will be accepted easily, and importantly, no human or man here. Someone will not find a better paradise than this place." 

Ruciel turned her face away, cut off eye contact with me. "You don't need to think about things like that because I never said, I agree to marry you." 

"Even though you like when I touch your body?" 

"Shut up! I don't like when you play with my body! Don't think that you have me just because we've slept together for once!" Her eyebrows curved sharply, her cheeks reddened, and her ears made a strong jolt. 

It's clear, the girl is angry but she is cute.

"Being mine is not a bad thing. I will always love you and you can't run away from me because you belong to me, you are a slave I owned." 

"You're very annoying! If it's not for this slave collar, I-" Click! 

The sound of the opened lock cut Ruciel's words. Without words, she touched her slave collar. The girl opened and peel off the iron necklace that clasped her neck easily. 

She froze when she saw the collar, which for some time controlled her life, now in her hands. 

That's right, I never thought that the item provided by Dishonesty to dispel Diana's curse, can also be used to remove the engraved spell in Ruciel's slave collar. 

Seeing this episode, I can conclude that the spell in her slave collar is based on the curse. 

How can I know that the item can be used on a slave collar? 

To be honest, I don't know. 

Spontaneously, I got the idea to use the item on her slave Collar. I did not expect that the item worked. 

Yes, this item can be used several times. 

So, go back to this moment. 

"If it's not for the slave collar, what will you do?" I asked Ruciel who was still dumbfounded. 

The girl raised her head to see me. She opened her mouth to say, "I-" then paused again. After that, he didn't say anything at all. 

Her silence continue, even when we looked for Kimi and the others. 

The attitude she showed me made me assume that she would not leave me. And even if she decided to leave, I will hunt her down, catch her, and finally lock her up in a cage. 

I don't want the girl to belong to someone else so I will secure her.

We found Kimi and the others with a little effort. My nose is reliable when I have to find someone. The kids and Diana were choosing weapons when I and Ruciel found them. 

"Let's go back," I told them. 

"Where do we want to go back?" Kimi confusion. 

"Of course to the first floor. We have to meet with Lostria and the others before we leave." 

"Leave this place?" "Where do you want to go?" Kimi and Diana say their questions at the same time. Their harmony made them exchange gazes. 

"Yes, we will leave Uncertainty," I told Kimi. Next, I look at Diana. "We wanted to continue our journey to find an Airship named Red Comet." 

"Will you come back here again?" She asked in a trembling voice.

"I'm afraid, we will not be able to come back. Uncertainty always moves and we have no way to track it. The only chance where we have the opportunity to return is when Dishonesty meets me." 

"No," said Diana who then closed her mouth with her hands. 

Seeing her response, maybe Diana didn't want to part with us. And if I invite her to come with us, there is a chance that she will agree. 

However, is a Flugel allowed to leave Uncertainty? I wonder. 

"Before we leave, let me get rid of your curse. Please, stay in your place, Diana," I said. 

A moment later, I took a black ball from my small Leather Bag and then used it. I felt my MP diminish. At the same time, I feel something has been torn off. 

Seeing Diana's reaction was astonished, I could say that her curse seemed to be gone. The woman touched her left eye and a moment later she look back at me. She opened her mouth, like wanting to say something but no sound was created. 

"With this, you can live normally. I'm happy for you," I told her with a smile. "Now, it's time for us to separate-" 

"No, don't leave," she said in a hurry. Her words also cut my words. 

"It's time for us to separate but, will you come with us? More than that, can a Flugel leave Uncertainty?" 

Diana did not give any answer. She hugged me with crying. A few moments passed before she said, "I will come with you. And for me to leave Uncertainty, I have to ask permission first. We can get the permission at the Royal Guard's headquarters." 

So, with that, we went to the Royal Guard's headquarters to ask for permission. Diana's request was granted for a moment we ask for it. She got a pendant together with her permission from the Royal Guard. 

The pendant was a tracker and magic tool that contain a Spell, that's Teleportation. Diana will automatically move to Uncertainty if she is on the verge of death or when she is in critical condition.

"I'm happy Auntie joined us," Kimi said, full of smiles. 

Chloe who is beside her making a nod. "We become family now, we will continue to be together." 

The woman hugged two little girls tightly. She also showered them with a kiss. Then, after her small celebration, we went to Teleportation Crystal. Our goal is the first floor, to the city where Lostria and the others gather. 

We returned to the inn shown by Yuldra on our first day here. There, I found Lostria and Teria. The two women were enjoying their food when we arrived.

"A few days passed, so, when you see us, that means we will leave this place, right?" Lostria glanced at me to investigate. 

"The question is, how many days do we get before we have to go?" Teria added. 

"We can leave for today but I know, you are not ready, right?" 

Teria nodded. "You're right, Miss Eclaite. We need at least three days before we can depart. We are in the middle of repairing the ship. They sell valuable raw materials at cheap and I don't want to miss it." 

"Then we leave for three more days." 

"As a precaution, I want to ask," Lostria crossed her arm. "Our aim will not change, right?" 

"You know it, we will still be looking for the Red Comet." 

"That's good," said Lostria who breathed a sigh of relief. 

"However, before we leave for it, we have to look for Myu first. Teria, do you still remember the place where we met Dishonesty?" 

"Can we forget the girl?" Ruciel asked so suddenly. 

That question made me turn toward her with one of my eyebrows lifted. "We can't leave Myu in the middle of nowhere. How can the girl survive on a sky island surrounded by monsters?" 

Ruciel snorted to answer my question. She then turned her face away. 

I shook my head because I didn't know what happened to her. A moment later I turned towards the Teria. "So?" 

"You can rely on me. The place is already inside my memory. However, going back there will not be an easy task to do. A few days passed and if we keep moving, we will automatically need a few days to return to that place." 

"Then, refill the supply we need, if necessary, we have to double it." 

"The money?" 

"I have enough gold coins but we can't use it in here." My fox ear twitched when I turned to see Ruciel. "How many Magic Stones and material from the monsters we get?" 

"Quite a lot," she started. "If I make an estimate, we might be able to buy four high-quality weapons. You want to use it to buy supplies?" 

I nodded to answer that question. 

"Okay, then," said the girl who then began to take out our items from within her Magic Bag. When all items were on the floor, Ruciel turned to Teria. "Have you checked the market price? If yes, you know how many supplies we will get from all this." 

"We will save Magic Stones as fuel. As for the rest, we can get supplies that will last for a week." 

"Then buy the supplies." 

"Consider the task already done," Teria tells me. The woman then told one of her crew to take care of the material we provided. 

"Oh yeah, where is Ronove?" 

"The grannie? She said she would go to the fifth floor. But you don't have to worry, she always returned before the night arrived." 

"The fifth floor! Seriously?" I asked in disbelief.

"She said so and I'm sure, she has no reason to lie." 

"How can the grandma reach the fifth floor while we only reach the second floor?" Kimi wonders. 

"I'm sure, she will answer that question with, because she has the experience," I told Kimi. 

In the end, we waited for Ronove to come back by preparing ourselves for the journey.
