Living in Another World by Commissioning 〜Healing Mage’s Relaxing and Fluffy Manpower Agency〜 - CH 58.4

When we reached the east main street, Rosamy had already moved on.

Solmetra and I continued to call out again to the passer by.

「…..missing one front tooth.」

「No, I haven’t seen her.」

「Thank you very much.」

Failed.

「…..missing one front tooth.」

「Didn’t see her.」

「Is that so….」

Failed.

While our failure of getting any information continued, a boarkin woman came up to Solmetra and spoke with her in a friendly manner.

「Solmetra, I heard you are looking for a girl today.」

「Yes, she’s a little girl who’s wearing a light green coat….」

「I heard from the girls from the stalls in the center that they saw a little girl like that.」

「Really?」

「They saw her!?」

「They said she still might be in the center.」

「Let’s go!」

「Then, good luck〜」

「Thank you very much」

「Thank you very much!」

Got it!?

I bowed deeply to the boarkin woman.

「Let’s head to the center of the city.」

「Please….I beg you, stay safe.」

After I had lost my moment of tension, for some reason, tears began to come out of my eyes.

I’m in front of a woman but I can’t stop.

I’m a grown man walking around with tears in my eyes and I’m sure people around are looking at me with doubtful eyes.

Sorry, Solmetra-san.

Please excuse me just this once.

「She’s you’re precious little sister desu ne」

When my tears had finally subsided after walking for a long time, Solmetra-san asked me as she looked forward.

「Yes, for me, my little sister is more important than my life.」

「I used to have a little sister like her too. We were twins and we have the same face.」

「Is that so? What about your little sister?」

「I don’t know. We were sold separately. I had burns all over my face so master bought me.」

I heard rumors about Schenker.

I heard that he buys disabled slaves for a very cheap price and goes through the trouble of healing them before using them.

Thanks to that, this city is full of Schenker’s slaves.

The people of this city, just like me, are all living with the help of the Schenkers.

「That….little sister of yours, I hope you find her.」

I said that even though I knew they were nothing but comforting words.

Slaves’ treatments are very different.

I think even the gods may not know the life and death of a female slave.

「Thanks」

That time, her beautiful eyes looked at me.

「However, I also know it too. I know that I might never see my little sister ever again.」

She said that without a change in her expression even though it must be painful for her.

I felt a pain in my chest.

「Why desu? She might still be alive, right?」

「Even if she is, I’m still a slave. I can’t even go see her.」

「Then! Why….?」

Why keep looking for the one with “the same face” if you don’t expect to see her?

I wasn’t able to put it in words. I can’t say it to her.

However, she replies as if it was nothing.

「Because my little sister and I only have each other as family now.」

「…….is that so?」

「If I forget my little sister, no one would look after her anymore. That’s…..to tragic, isn’t it?」

Even though her expression doesn’t change, for some reason, I feel she’s very sad.

「Us too….」

「……」

「My parents died too and it’s just me and my little sister.」

「I see.」

Even though her expression still doesn’t change, I feel like she looked at me with concern.

「Then, it means we need to find her quicker.」

「Yeah!」

We picked up speed, almost sprinting toward the city center.

A few flakes of snow had begun to fall from the sky.
