It Is A Different World And Yet I Am Cultivating Monsters - 144 144 "Ishitaru Ruins"

We’ve walked a lot in the desert and it’s time for a break.

I suppose. Well, let’s take a break here.

I nodded in response to Lily’s suggestion and immediately decided to take a rest behind a nearby rock.

We’ve been running all this way, so we should give them a break.

As I was drinking water from my canteen, I saw a shadow on the horizon.

That’s ……

It was the remains of Ishtar’s civilization that Alisha had described to me when I had passed through this area before.

For some reason I felt an indescribable chill run through my chest.

But at the same time, a nagging feeling lingered in the back of my mind.

Locke, who had sensed something with me at that time, was also there, hugging my arm and looking at the shadow of the ruins on the horizon.

“Kyou, what’s up?

Lily, who was standing next to me, noticed something strange about me and Locke, and turned her attention to the ruins on the horizon.

Is that ……?

“It’s the remains of the Ishtar civilization. Alisha said.

“Yeah, that one.

I’m sure you’ll be able to find out more about this.

I’m sure you’ll be able to find a lot more information about the company and its products.

I’m sure you’ll be happy to know that I’m not the only one.

“No, it’s just that I’m kind of curious about …….

“Curious?

I’m not sure how to explain it, but Lily mentioned it, as if she was trapped by what I said.

But I didn’t know how to explain it. But I didn’t have the confidence to put it into words.

This was somewhat instinctive, like a hunch.

There was something there that was both frightening and, at the same time, I felt like there was something I couldn’t miss.

Whether it’s a good omen or a bad omen, I don’t know.

But at least I can’t ignore it for the rest of my life. Rather, I have a premonition that it will surely appear in a different form sooner or later.

You’ll be able to explain such a feeling to Lily, but I’m sure she’s still troubled that she didn’t get it across.

It’s a good idea to have a good time with them.

“Eh, but ……

It could be dangerous. Before those words can fly out, Lily raises her index finger.

“Don’t be shy. Who do you think I am?　There is no one better than you when it comes to battle, beast and hero.

It is true that Lily’s abilities are well-documented. I’m sure she’s one of the best among the seven great heroes I know.

I’m sure it’s a good idea to go there if you’re interested.

Everyone around them seemed to agree with Lily’s line, and both Fitis and Jack nodded in agreement.

“Don’t be shy, Kyou-sama. “Don’t be shy, Kyou-sama, we’ll go with you wherever you go.

Yeah. If you say you care about it, we’ll go out with you.

…… Yeah, I guess so. Is it better to get it straight than to keep moping around?

Taking everyone’s words, I shift my gaze again to the ruins on the horizon and declare: “Let’s go.

Then let’s go. Let’s go to the remains of the Ishtar civilization.
