I never want to do it but I will ban your comment.
Heed my warning, dear readers.
When I return to the hut, Kuzuha-chan was sleeping on the straw. In her clothes, there are many exposures and the places were ripped, she may get stuck by straw.
I put Kuzuha-chan’s mother close to her. From my view, they look like mother and daughter sleeping together. (see translator corner)
I thought that I should wake Kuzaha up, but I do not want to disturb others’ sleep. Let explain when she woke up. I put the straw to cover Kazuha-chan and her mother to keep warm in stead of blanket. And then, I took out the blanket from my Blood Bag, sat down and lean my back on the pillar nearby.
I open my eyes again and I see Kuzuha-chan is waking up.
“Mmmm…?”
While leaking a small voice, Kuzuha-chan got up.
As she got up, the straw I use to cover her start falling apart
“Arge-san …?”
“No, it doesn’t matter … but what is it, I can feel my esteemed mother smells …?”
“Your mother is over there”
I point my finger to the straw part. Her mother is lying next to Kuzuha-chan.
She seems to be very happy, she jumps into her mother’s chest. Just like a small fox play with parents.
“Haha-sama!!” (母様: Haha-sama = esteemed mother)
While keep call to her mother ‘Haha-sama’ ‘Haha-sama’, Kuzaha rubs her face against her mother’s chest. (see translator corner)
But, of course, her mother does not respond. She never open her eyes and never move her fingers.
It seemed that it was so strange that Kuzuha-chan’s face got cloudy.
“Ka a,-sama? Dō shita ndesu no?” (かあ、さま？ どうしたんですの: Mo…ther, what’s wrong? )
“Huh……”
Kuzaha-chan turned her yellow eyes toward me and immediately returned to her mother.
But the meaning of the word I said, even a young girl like her can get it means “can not open her eyes, forever”.
Water drop on her mother’s cheeks.
Her daughter’s tears.
“Haha-sama…… ka a-sama, haha-sama……!” (母様……かあさま、母様……！ T.N: everything is mean mother)
Kuza does not shout or rage, she stares at her mother ‘s face, continues to call her mother, her tears just won’t stop falling.
I trembled my shoulders and pulled up, I stretched out my hand to her but stopped. While she keep calling her mother.
… Touch and stroke her head. So how will this help?
It may be comforting. But it will not be a salvation.
What I can do is to heal wounds. That’s it.
My hands can conform her but it can not save her mother.
After all, I was just looking until Kuzuha-chan’s tears withered. Without touching.
“… I’m sorry, I showed you something unsightly.”
“I appreciate it if you say so … … Thank you for bringing my mother back.”
After crying all along, Kuzuha-chan smiled, she bow her head deeply with a smile on swollen eyes.
I’m touching not her skin but a collar.
“Is this collar from the lord?”
“If I put on, the lord is able to know my location … Mother says that it is safe to know the place even if she are away. The lord have told her so, and it is a lie.”
As expected, Kuzha is not deceived anymore.
She saw the mother’s body and understood. She already knew it. And she just cried.
“As long as this thing on your neck, you can not go anywhere.”
“Please give me freedom”
“Huh……?”
The word is directed to the collar, not to Kuzha.
At the same time as the magic solved the spell, a lot of cracks appear in the collar. The iron collar is broken apart.
Kuzha looks with a surpise face to the iron fragments scattered at her feet.
“Arge-san, this is … ….”
“You can now live freely as you like”
It is not because I was asked.
It is not a kind of repayment.
Just like I sleep when I want to sleep, I thought that she should do what she wants to do. She already knew everything.
You can do just as you want, if there is place you want to go, if there is something that you want to do, you should do it as you like. You may find a new hope. I can only do as much as break the curse though. I can’t help you anymore.
“… Wakarimashita wa” ( I understand)
From her eyes, I could see a strong determination.
It is an understanding eyes that she has decided on something. I will definitely not be able to do it, strong determination eyes.
“Itte mairima su” (I am leaving)
Bowing deeply, Kuzuha-chan kicked the ground. She jumps to the hole in the ceiling of the hut and leaves as it is.
… Her physical ability is also high.
She seems to be a beastkin. Regarding magic, she was manipulating the fire attribute magic that strong enough to hurt me even with my tolerance and she even able to make an alter ego.
She can walk with her own power. She do not need anyone’s help.
“It’s a bit cold, isn’t it?”
I’m talking to Kuzuha-chan’s mother.
I put a blanket that I current wore to her body.
“Keep yourself warm until Kuzuha-chan returns.”
I understand that there is no response, I repeat the words and leave the corpse.
I just thought that I was better do something like that.
… I respect her feeling for her daughter, I can’t do anything for her, but I think the least I can do is keep her body warm.
I take out a new blanket from the blood bag and wear it, then leave the hut.
It is still early until dawn. A cold wind strokes my cheek. The smell that the wind brought was sometone I knew.
He current is in the other side of the meadow, and he will come to me in a flash. It seems that he got much faster.
“Neguseo. you come?”
“Restless?”
“I am sorry … I do not really understand, but thank you.”
… What does he mean by “my heart hurt”?
There is no lie in what Neguseo says.
Of course, he knows not to tell a lie.
In the first place, why am I so much …?
“…………”
“Oh, yes, what?”
“Well, thank you.”
I do not know well, but Neguseo stop talking.
Ride on the back of Neguseo. He understand me without talking, and he start walking without saying anything.
“I will sleep for a while,”
“Thank you, Neguseo”
As soon as I closed my eyes, my drowsiness came.
It seems that I was tired from exercise rather than I thought. For now I will stop thinking and just go sleep.
How Kuzuha and her mother sleep together.
How Kuzuha seem lonely sleep use her tail as pillow.
How Kuzuha jump on her mother chest. And of course, her mother wasn’t alive.
