My twin sister was taken in as a miko, and I was thrown away, but maybe I am the miko.

“Ready”

　It was about twenty days after Athos and the others returned to the village that Athos and Gaius and the others appeared to me. The beastmen who came with Gaius and his friends were the ones who had come here before.

“Then, can I go?”

“Ah. It’s okay.”

“thank you”

　The village where I was born and raised is the only place I know of where people live. What kind of place is the beastman village? I feel anxious because I don’t know. However, I feel safe because everyone is here. I also have a great feeling about what kind of place it will be.

　Honestly, I thought I would live in the village where I was born and raised and die without ever leaving. There were times when I thought I was going to die when they didn’t give me food. I was abandoned, moved out of the village, and am about to go to the beastman village. I feel kind of strange.

“Thank you in advance”

　I say that and bow my head.

　Since I was going to be indebted to him from now on, I thought I should bow my head. I’ve seen people in the village do this when they’re being taken care of by someone, so it’s probably not a mistake.

“…Ah. So, how will Lelunda get around?”

“Ride Seafo. Look, I have what you want.”

　I was planning to ride Seafo when I moved. So, the beastmen thought that it would be faster to reach their destination, the beastman village, if the griffons carried them. But he said he didn’t want to ride on his back, so I thought there was something I could do.

“……this is?”

　When he asked if there was something he wanted to see, he showed him a handmade basket made by griffons. There were several that were large enough for about two beastmen to fit inside.

　Brothers Rion and Yuin seemed to be having a lot of fun making it, and they put a lot of energy into making it. The brothers work together, and they are both good friends. The basket has a string attached to it, and the griffons can hook it with their claws and carry it.

“Here, enter. And griffons, carry them.”

　I’ll first explain what it is. I’m not sure if I’m conveying it properly, but I wonder if I’ll be able to convey it properly?

“Then… we’ll arrive faster.”

　I still can’t get used to talking so much, since I wasn’t in the village.

　This is the only way I can talk, so when I occasionally spoke to people in the village they would say all kinds of things. I think that’s why I once again realized that I’m not good at speaking. But Athos-san and Gaius don’t talk like the people in the village, even though I talk like this, so I think it’s good.

“Does that mean we’ll ride here and Gryphon-sama will carry us? Is that okay?”

“Hmm. It looks like my back is… but this is fine.”

“I see… In that case, I’ll be grateful to be carried.”

“I don’t know where it is, so please tell me.”

“Of course I’ll tell you the location of the village.”

“thank you”

　Athos-san, it’s amazing how smoothly you can speak. I wonder if I can become better at speaking too. That’s what I thought while listening to Athos-san’s words.

　Then, I put myself on top of Seafo, and Athos and the others went into the cage and had the griffons carry it.

　The adult griffons each hooked the string and lifted it up. The baby griffons are flying behind them. There are also baby griffons, so they aren’t flying that high. I’m also a little scared if it’s too high.

　But I think it’s amazing that both Griffons and Seafo can fly. The weather today is sunny. The sun is out. The wind is also blowing. When you fly in the sky, you can feel the breeze and feel comfortable. It feels good and I can’t help but feel happy.

“~~♪”

　I’m so happy that I hum a little song.

　It’s fun to sing while feeling the wind. Even though my voice was small, the baby griffons heard me and started singing along.

　Gaius and the others in the cage were surprised.

　Walking through the forest, singing. He was never attacked by other monsters. I noticed it at times, but it seemed like it quickly ran away. Maybe they ran away because there were griffons, but I don’t know for sure.

　I didn’t know anything about the place far from the griffon’s nest, so I was surprised to find such a view in this forest, and it was fun to look around.

　There was a river on the way and we took a break there. He drinks water and takes a breather. Shinorun-san was feeling a little unwell. It seems like he got sick from traveling in a cage. I asked if she was okay, so I offered her a bottle of water, and she thanked me.

　I thought that some people get sick when they move. I never felt sick while riding on Seafo, so I didn’t think there were people like that. A little reflection.

　After Mr. Shinorun felt a little better, we proceeded again.

　And, from where the griffon’s nest was originally located, the destination was several hours away.

-On the road with the girl

　(Perhaps the miko girl heads from the griffon’s nest to the beastman village.)
