- Let me say this out loud... I disagree.
- Yeah, well... I'm not surprised. - Subaru smiled bitterly.
Otto was transferred to a real hospital where he received care worthy of a hero. The black-haired man had just finished reporting the findings of a meeting that the counselor was unable to attend.
- I don't agree with you going there.
Subaru had expected this reaction.
He guessed right away that I had decided to meet with the Sage. He's the one who can figure me out. Others often overestimate me, but Otto and Beatrice always hit the spot. Well, maybe Patrasche. And Ferris, but not when he's busy with so many wounded.
- Since you know me so well, you probably already know what I think about this.
- Lady Emilia and Beatrice were not pleased, were they?
- Beako is so cute when she gets angry! - replied Subaru jokingly, shrugging his shoulders.
Resignedly, Otto placed a hand on his forehead.
- How are your legs? Still bad? - muttered the black-haired man, glancing at the bandages.
- It's hard for them to take care of me quickly under these circumstances. Too many wounded, they can't keep up. Lord Kiritaka is bringing medics from neighboring towns...
- Can't you get some outstanding?
- Mr. Ferris is too busy with Lady Crusch.
- Eh. And our special agent and treatment specialist also has his hands full.
Subaru was referring to Garfiel, who was also given the title of camp medic after the events in Priestella. The blond man healed himself with a blessing, then helped heal Otto, and after hours contributed to the rebuilding of the city.
He's a good boy. He doesn't mind working hard at all for people he doesn't even know.
- I think he has something in common with this town. He's trying his best.
- Eh, Garfiel... He'll probably tell us everything eventually, and for now there's no need to worry about him, Mimi is making sure he doesn't get into trouble.
- It's surprisingly responsible of her. Maybe because she's an older sister.
- Could be. In any case... - Otto paused and looked more seriously at Subaru.
The boy straightened up.
- We still have to pick up the Book of Wisdom from Master Darts. I guess I'll have to stay here for a while... but remember what I think about your leaving. I disagree. Of course, it probably won't change anything...
- Don't be like that. Well, I'll leave you Garfiel for company. He'll help you, he'll be useful in rebuilding, and he can defend the city if something happens. I hope that doesn't happen, but we can't rule out the possibility that the Witch cult will return.
You don't know what to expect from them. They seem to have backed off, but who knows if it wasn't a ploy.
Everyone was afraid of that, not just Subaru.
- All right, well... Someone needs to keep an eye on business while you travel. As soon as I can walk, I'll start looking around for information right away.
- Excuse me," said Subaru. - However, I'll go meet that Sage.
Otto sighed deeply and slowly made himself more comfortable.
- Okay. Take care of yourself, okay?
He smiled unenthusiastically.
