「Hmm?」
As Sam was about to leave the forest and step into the neighboring territory, Sam heard soone breathing in his ear.
「Who’s there?」
There was no reply.
But there was definitely the sound of human breathing.
He had cast a body-enhancent spell so that he could hear better even if a monster attacked him unexpectedly.
It’s not a mishearing.
There is definitely a human being nearby.
「The breathing is weak. Maybe soone is hurt.」
If there was soone in trouble, leaving them alone was not an option.
Sam sharpened his nerves and moved in the direction of the presence of people.
Fortunately, there didn’t seem to be any monsters.
Just when he was about to speak out, Sam found the person he was looking for.
「―――Find it.」
It was a woman sitting on the ground with her back against a large tree.
「―――A woman.」
Her flaming scarlet hair stood out in the green forest.
Dressed in gray robes, she looked like a true adventurer.
However, she was not carrying any kind of luggage.
It’s possible that she was chased by a monster and has escaped.
「Um…」
「Hmm?」
「―――?!」
When the woman looked up, Sam gulped.
It was a beautiful woman.
It’s no exaggeration to say that she was the most beautiful woman in both his previous and current lives.
She was about twenty years old.
Her flaming scarlet hair, white skin, and slender limbs were well balanced.
The bridge of her nose, her eyebrows, and her eyes are as neat as those of an exquisite doll.
What caught my attention the most were the powerful eyes that were the sa color as her hair.
(―――He’s like a fla.)
Sam’s sense of caution vanished from his mind.
Like a moth attracted to a fla, he wandered closer.
The next thing he knew, he was standing close enough to look down on her.
「Um, can I help you?」
Just speaking to her made him nervous.
Thinking about it, this is the first person he t since he left the territory.
Sam had no idea who she was, but he couldn’t help but call out to her.
「mm.」
「Did you get hurt? Do you need dical attention?」
「―――hu.」
「Eh?」
The woman seed to mumble sothing, but Sam couldn’t make it out.
She didn’t seem to have the energy to speak.
But her eyes were shining brightly.
Her eyes beckoned to him, and he moved his face closer to hers.
「Are you okay?」
「―――hu.」
Her voice was still weak, and he couldn’t make out what she was saying.
Then a woman’s hand reached out and grabbed Sam’s chest, bringing her lips close to his.
「―――hungry.」
He couldn’t understand what was being said.
He stopped thinking.
She said again to Sam.
「I’m hungry. Please give sothing to eat.」
It seed that the woman was not injured, but had collapsed from hunger.
Sam could feel his nerves dissipating.
Sighing, Sam let the bag fall off his back and pulled out so food for her.
