Chapter 385. [The Ring That Changes Fate]

'Um, is she going to be okay!?'

'She just finally fell asleep. But...'

Rushing into the house where the Secret Service woman was staying, the woman who had been nursing her responded.

Her breathing was rough, and she looked like she was in terrible pain.

'W-why is this happening!? She was supposed to be getting better!'

'I don’t know.'

'…!'

Anger welled up inside .

I almost took it out on the local woman—but I stopped myself just in ti.

She wasn’t the one at fault.

What I almost did was just pointless frustration.

If anything, she had been doing everything she could to help.

There was no way I could bla her.

'Ughhh...!'

Even so, I couldn’t hold back my emotions.

Why? Why!?

First the local man, and now she was in this state too.

What was I supposed to do!?

'Will she wake up again?'

'I don’t know. She might not wake up at all.'

'You should be prepared. If her condition worsens again, then...’

'...I understand.'

I nodded quietly.

Then, I stood up and turned my back to them.

'Wait. Where are you going?'

'...To get help.'

'Help? No way, you’re not—!?'

'Sorry, I don’t have ti.'

'W-wait!?'

'Please take care of her.'

Leaving only those words behind, I walked out of the house.

The woman didn’t follow —she couldn’t leave the sick behind.

I returned to my ho and dumped my bag out onto the floor.

A dead phone, a water-damaged charger and battery, cables, empty bottles—junk scattered everywhere.

'This stays. This goes.'

'Daughter, what are you doing!?'

Sensing sothing was wrong, my mom turned to , eyes wide in shock.

I barely glanced at her before going back to my work.

Useless electronics were just dead weight.

But the cables—those could be used as sturdy rope.

I needed to lighten my load. I couldn’t afford to carry anything unnecessary.

I wasn’t strong enough for that.

'A spear, extra thread and needles... and a torch for carrying fire...'

'Daughter!'

Ignoring , Mama-san grabbed my shoulders and forcibly turned around.

I shouted.

'Don’t stop ! I have to go!'

'Go? Go where? Oh... You were looking for soone to take you outside the forest, weren’t you?

Don’t tell —you’re going in alone!? That’s suicide!'

'Then—are you coming with !?'

'...!'

I scread as if I were about to break into tears.

Mama-san was at a loss for words.

'See? I knew it.'

But it wasn’t her fault.

And of course, I couldn’t force her to co.

She could die.

The horrors of the forest... I had just been reminded of them not long ago.

I couldn’t tell her to risk her life for soone else.

So, I had no choice.

There was no one else.

I had to do it myself.

'I know it’s dangerous. But if I don’t, I can’t save her.'

We couldn’t even figure out the cause of her illness here.

If there was any chance of saving her, it would be through modern dicine.

Oh.

I’d need that too.

'Mama-san, were you the one who found us in the forest?'

'...Yes, I was with them.'

'Can you tell everything you rember about that ti?'

'I don’t mind, but...'

Summing up her story, it went like this:

'One day, we heard a loud explosion from far away...'

The village had been on edge ever since.

That was probably when our plane crashed.

'After that, we stayed away—it could have been dangerous.'

...I see.

So when that man who died said, 'They don’t co here often,' he wasn’t talking about jaguars—it was because of this.

'But then, one day, we heard a smaller popping sound. We thought, what could it be this ti? Then... music and singing ca from that direction.'

That must have been when I fired at the jaguar.

And right before I passed out... I had cranked up my favorite VTuber’s song, hoping it would keep animals away.

'That’s how we knew soone was there. We went to check, and that’s when we found you.'

'...I see.'

Only now did I realize.

The one who saved our lives that day... was my favorite VTuber’s voice.

It was always like this.

The ones who saved were always VTubers.

But they weren’t here.

'Mama-san, was there a black tal object near us?'

'Yes, there was.'

'What happened to it?'

I was looking for my handgun.

I didn’t have any particular attachnt to it.

That’s why I hadn’t asked until now.

But that didn’t matter anymore.

'The elders said it was dangerous and didn’t belong to anyone, so they threw it into the river. It’s probably at the bottom, or washed away by now. Either way, you won’t get it back.'

'I see.'

If it was disposed of, then there was nothing I could do.

If I still had it, hunting and self-defense would have been easier.

'Then I have nothing more to ask. Let go of .'

'Let go.'

'...!'

Mama-san’s hands slowly fell away.

I turned my back and resud my preparations.

'Mama-san, thank you for saving us. For everything you’ve done... I loved you.'

'...I see. So, I really can’t stop you.'

I didn’t answer.

If there was anyone who could stop , anyone who could change my mind, it would be...

"Hm?"

That’s when I noticed sothing still inside my bag.

It must have gotten stuck in the inner pocket.

I pulled it out.

It was—

The Christmas present I had ant to give her.
