The Small Sage Will Try Her Best In The Different World From Lv.1! - Chapter 85

While I was in front of the Adventurer Guild waiting for Ar-niisama and the others, the townspeople nearby were looking at my direction from the distance.

Each time Noir slightly moved, the townspeople shuddered with a start.

Au. Dear townspeople, sorry for making you afraid.

But Noir isn’t a bad magical beast~. It could enter the barrier that protected against magical beasts after all, so it’s fine~

Perhaps everyone wanted to inquire why a magical beast like Noir would be in the town, but since Amanda-san and Virna-san were standing without concealing their vigour, nobody dared to come close to us.

By the way, Karin-san was muttering some sort of a theory, perhaps it was because she was bored with nothing to do.

I wonder if Ar-niisama would return any time soon?

In Elysia Online, there’d be a woman whose surname was definitely [Joy-san] in the Adventurer Guild’s receptionist. Their names would be something around the line of Maria Joy or Francois Joy, but everyone had the same faces, and were only called with “Joy-san”.

Joy-san had a pink hair in a pigtails style, wore a white uniform, and although they had a baby face, their breasts were big, and there were hardcore fans of them.

Moreover, the fans were divided based on which cities’ Joy-san, and there was an event to decide which town’s Joy-san was the best, named as [Joy-san’s general election].

The people who voted on the winning Joy-san would get a 1/10-sized figure of the winning Joy-san that could be put in their own houses in the game, so it was quite hyped up.

I wonder if there’d be a Joy-san in this Adventurer Guild?

If so, I’d like to see her.

“Oy, you!”

Moreover, since everyone had the same face, I wonder what’s up with the genes of the Joy family? Is there no male there? But if a male had that kind of a face, they could probably only be seen as a girl, though.

“You, over there!”

Haa. Could it be that a Joy-san in some town was a boy all along? And it was just that nobody had noticed it at all?!

“The silver-haired purple-eyed little girl! I’m talking with you!”

Hmm…?

Me?

When I took a closer look, there was a boy around the same age as me amongst the crowd. He had a standoffish orange-colored hair, and he had a seemingly determined face.

“Are you talking about me?”

I tried to point at myself, and the boy nodded.

“Yes, I want to ask you something.”

“Uuhm, what is it?”

“Is the big magical beast over there your pet?”

“Not a pet, it’s my family.”

Right? I took a glance at Noir, and it let out a small cry, “Migya”.

See? Noir also said so.

“Family, is it?”

The boy narrowed his orange eyes and had a doubtful expression.

But it’s true. Noir is my family.

“Hey. Just where did you catch this guy?”

“Catch?”

I reflexively turned my face to look at Amanda-san, who was also looking at me.

Does that mean he’d like to have a pet like Noir?

“Hey boy, why do you want to catch a magical beast?”

Amanda-san asked in my stead.

“I’m going to look for my family.”

“Looking for them? Did they go missing?”

“They suddenly disappeared. But since I am still a child, I am not supposed to go out of the town all by myself. That’s why, although I’d like to go to look for them, I was told to wait until the knights come. That’s why I waited, but even the priest-san who promised he’d go together with me to look for my family ended up missing. That’s why, I want to go look for them, even if I’m all alone. But if I am alone and the bad guys appear, I won’t be able to beat them up, so I want a strong pet just like yours. Tell me where I should go so I can catch one like that. Please!”

I was bewildered at the boy who was bowing his orange head down.

Uuuhm. That means, this boy is the family member of the aforementioned missing children case, right? Then, in order to go to the place of the bad guys who abducted them, he’d like to get a magical beast like Noir as a pet, to use as a bodyguard, huh?

“I think it’s impossible for a child like you. First, you might not even be able to escape harm should you encounter a magical beast.”

“But that girl over there is also a pipsqueak, but didn’t she manage to subjugate a magical beast?”

I am not a pipsqueak, I am only small!

Within time, I will grow bigger!

Or rather, even I have completely forgotten about it, but I was originally older. Recently, I have been completely recognizing myself as a small child… How odd.

“This child is an exception.”

“Then, give it to me! Uhm… I don’t have money right now, but in the future when I become rich, I will return the favor.”

“You can’t. Didn’t I tell you that Noir is my family? Are you going to sell your family?”

Although he had such a devotion to his family that he thought of looking for them though he was all alone, he was mean to ask me to sell my own family!

But the boy looked surprised at my words as he apologized, “Sorry.”

“Even after you’ve said just now that the magical beast is your family. Really, sorry. Then, can you lend it to me until I can find my family… No, uhhm, I’d like to have that magical beast help me. Please, accept my request!”

I was perplexed at the boy who bowed his head even lower than before.

“I won’t lend Noir, but… But, uhm, I’m thinking of helping out with looking for the missing children. That’s why, can you tell me more about it?”

We came here for that in the first place.

This time, I won’t become a small sage, but I’d become a small detective, and I’m definitely going to find the missing children—!
