Litty, Sends Off the Young Lady

Litty went to send De Mile and Maamu off at the entrance of the city. She was relieved that they had Natasha and two other guards protecting them, even though one of them was missing at the moment.

However, Litty still had some regrets. She wanted to stay with Maamu until she could learn basic magic from her.

Perhaps it was not a good idea to get too personal with your client, but she couldn’t help wanting to learn something she didn’t know of.

“Litty-san, thank you so much for your help this time. And congratulations on advancing to Rank 4.” (Maamu)

“Thank you very much Maamu, take care of yourself. Someday, I will definitely come to the Capital.” (Litty)

“Yess, please come by, and when you are there, do not forget to meet me.”

“Yes, I will do so.”

Maamu looked out of the carriage window as De Mile sat beside her, listening to the conversation of two girls. In the presence of De Mile, Litty hesitated on whether to mention Maamu’s genuine desires.

However, Litty still summoned up her courage.

“Maamu. If there is something you want to do, I will help you.” (Litty)

“Eh, umm?” (Maamu)

“I’ve thought about it. Yesterday, the guards were a little suspicious of me but they believed De Mile-san’s words. This means that they can’t trust me as an individual for now.” (Litty)

Neither Maamu nor De Mile could return the words without seeing where the conversation was leading to. However, Maamu certainly felt something inside.

Maamu didn’t have the courage to say it out here, but Litty saw right through her.

“Right now, I have only just reached Rank 4. I don’t have enough achievements, credibility, and ability to back up my words. It’s only natural that they don’t trust me. But… if I build up both my strength and my reputation, I’m sure many people would recognize me and my words would have some value to them in the future.” (Litty)

“Litty-san, I appreciate your concern, but…” (Maamu)

“There were also days in life where I couldn’t do what I wanted to do. However, I am glad that I became an adventurer in the end. That’s why I don’t want you to regret it and take a step towards your dream.”

Maamu blinked several times as Litty cornered her. Putting her hand on her own chest, Maamu thought long and hard about something.

Something she wanted to do, something that her father would probably object to if she told him. She was too scared to tell him.

However, Litty still encouraged her to do so.

“Father, I…” (Maamu)

“Maamu?” (De Mile)

She couldn’t get the words out. She’s going to make him worry, he might even get mad at her. Her heart sped up, but her mouth refused to open.

Suddenly, Natasha appeared outside the carriage, making a clenched fist she nodded towards Maamu. Maamu could tell that Natasha’s smile was giving her a boost.

Then Litty struck the same pose.

Feeling reassured, Maamu took a deep breath and clenched her fists.

“I want to be a Magician.” (Maamu)

“What?” (De Mile)

“I’ve been reading books on it, and I’ve always wanted to be a Magician. I also thought that if I could use recovery magic, no one would need to go through the same suffering as mother…” (Maamu)

“Maamu, but…” (De Mile)

“I understand how Father feels. So, we don’t need to reach a conclusion right away.” (Maamu)

With that, she shifted her gaze to Litty. Then she turned her attention back to her father and reached her hand out of the carriage.

Litty and Natasha, sensing her intent, step away a little.

“…Fire!” (Maamu)

A vigorous flame erupted from Maamu’s palm for a moment. It wasn’t enough to be called attack magic, but it was far more powerful than Litty’s.

De Mile opened his mouth wide, trying to speak.
