"Aaa! Please, forgive me?! Don't force me to return to the original world! I beg you?!" I begged and knelt in front of the two of them.
"I don't want to deal with you anymore," said the snake girl, immediately leaving me.
But she seemed to be forced back closer before she was far from me.
"Aaa! Ah, my goodness! Okay, okay! I'll do as promised," said the snake girl in annoyance. She calmed and said, "No need to be afraid of me. I came to help you find many medicinal plants. I won't do that. Force you to return to the original world."
"Stand up! We have no ill intentions towards you," said the red dragon.
Hearing their words, I immediately stood up. I felt relieved that they had come to help me.
"Is that true?" I asked to make sure.
"Yes, of course. Where are we going now?" asked the red dragon.
"I don't know. But I'm trying to find medicinal plants. I don't have a destination to search for," I replied.
"Don't worry. I'll take you to many rare medicinal plants," said the snake girl.
"Is that place far? Time will run out if we walk," I said.
"I'll fly to get many medicinal plants. Wait here!" said the red dragon, who started to change his form from human to red dragon. He began to fly, but he started to fall once he was far enough.
The red dragon realized that the red bracelet thought he was running away, so breaking the promise was considered breaking the promise. The red dragon transformed back into a human with horns on his head. He approached me again.
"Yeah, it looks like we can't do that either! Okay, we should quickly go to the nearest place to get medicinal plants," said the red dragon.
I nodded in agreement with the red dragon's words. We started our journey together towards the medicinal plants around here. During the search, we had a chat.
"Your name is Moon, right? As I recall!" said the snake girl to me.
"Yes, that's right. What's wrong?" I replied.
"Why don't you attack the monsters like the others do?" asked the snake girl.
"I told you from the start, right? About me not having magical abilities. That's why I can't be like them," I replied.
The snake girl started to get annoyed, "Huh, seriously! You just did something magical and say you can't do it? Then what was that just now?"
"Eh! Really? Isn't that just now? Can anyone do it? It's just a normal book. Anyone who does it can do it!" I replied.
The snake girl started to think about that ability by understanding what I said, and the red dragon looked confused.
"Moon, so you think your ability like that can be done by anyone?" asked the red dragon.
I nodded, "Yes, isn't that obvious. Those here can return to the original world with their own abilities. Should have something like me, too!"
"Have you ever checked your abilities with a crystal ball before?" asked the red dragon.
"Yes, I have. The first time I came here, there was no light; the second time before, I joined this hunting day with the result of no light. I don't have any abilities. My friends at Undermoon Academy also know that. I don't have a group and friends," I replied.
The red dragon thought about the power that had fought him. Strangely, of all those powers, only Moon's power made his power completely useless.
Not long after that, we were not at our destination. Shady trees and old buildings are guarded by strong monsters. However, thanks to the help of the red dragon and the snake girl, I got a lot of medicinal plants, some of which were even in the rare category.
"Thank you very much for your help. I got a lot of medicinal plants," I said.
"Yes, that's no problem. Is there anything else you want to find?" the snake girl asked, smiling at me.
"Nothing. I think this is enough. I want to return to Undermoon Academy, but I don't know how. Can you help me one more time?" I said.
"Yes, okay. Take this, the magic stone that will take you to Undermoon Academy. But this is only useful once," said the red dragon, giving me the magic stone.
I took the magic stone from the red dragon's hand, "Thank you very much."
"It's time for goodbye, huh? Take this, my snake scale. This will help you later," said the snake girl, giving me the scale.
I immediately took the scale and put it in a magic pouch.
"I'll give you this too! The red dragon scale. I hope this helps you, too. It was nice to meet you on the day of the hunt," said the red dragon, not wanting to lose to the snake girl's actions.
"Thank you very much!" I said, immediately taking the book and putting it in a magic pouch.
At that moment, the mission was fulfilled. The red bracelet immediately disappeared.
"Wow, I'm finally free! Alright, let's hunt more on the last day of the hunt," said the dragon girl, starting to leave by changing her form into a giant snake.
"I won't lose to you! See you, Moon?" said the red dragon, who then changed her form into a dragon and flew away.
They all left me. I started to continue my journey. I didn't want to go back, and after completing my mission, I wanted to go for a walk.
"How nice. My wish has been fulfilled. But I'm curious about Seikyu Yuuki. What is he doing now? Hunting?!" I said while walking aimlessly and observing the surroundings.
The wind blew cool because many trees were growing around here. A bird perched on a tree branch. I started to sit under the tree and rest.
Meanwhile, the existence of Vampire Theo and his friends. Those resting under a shady tree suddenly got attacked by the demon king's troops, who injured them. They chose to retreat and quickly return to Undermoon Academy.
The existence of Lily and the group. After successfully defeating the snake troops, they faced a stronger snake girl. Making one of she's friends forcibly sent home and unable to return to Undermoon Academy. Lily and her friends chose to retreat after losing one friend. A group fight occurred. Lily and her friends returned to Undermoon Academy early.
The witches who had bullied Moon were attacked by a red dragon, which caused half of them to be forcibly executed back to their original world and suffer serious injuries. They immediately fled, feeling sad and devastated.
The existence of Alpha Grey and his friends. They faced the demon king, who changed the sunny weather into terrible weather. Alpha Grey and his friends were overwhelmed by the task of defeating one person. Insufficient courage brought about extraordinary fear, so one friend was forcibly executed back to their original world. Alpha Grey and his friends suffered serious injuries and decided to retreat.
The demon king ordered the troops to go on a rampage. They managed to execute hundreds of people forcibly returned to the original world and suffered serious injuries, but managed to escape.
I was enjoying a relaxing time with snacks and drinking warm tea when I was suddenly surprised by the sound of birds perched on a tall tree. The melodious sound of birds, accompanied by the wind, made me feel comfortable and calm.
Drinking warm tea, "Huh, very nice! By the way, what are they doing now? Surely they got a lot of prey," I said to myself.
Unbeknownst to me, the last hunting day was the time for the demon king and his large army to appear against those who were hunting, the students of Undermoon Academy. A terrible activity but also has a good side and a certain purpose.
Suddenly, I was surprised by Seikyu Yuuki's presence. He smiled at me, and I immediately got up from my seat and approached him.
"Seikyu Yuuki, are you okay? Is there anything sick?" I asked.
"Yes, I'm fine. My hunt this time was quite good. Very fun! How about you?" he replied while looking under the tree.
"I'm fine. Someone helped me. Want some tea? I'll make you a drink. Sit down?" I said, immediately heading under the tree and sitting down.
I immediately made a drink for Seikyu Yuuki. After I finished, I immediately gave it to him.
"Drink!" I said.
Seikyu Yuuki drank the warm tea I made.
"How is it? Is it too hot?" I asked.
"This is delicious! How was your search? Did you find many medicinal plants?" he replied.
"Yes, I found many medicinal plants. I also have acquaintances. The snake girl and the red dragon. Unfortunately, I don't know their names. But that's how they look."
Seikyu Yuuki was silent for a moment. He frowned as he remembered the two people.
"What did they do to you?"
"They helped me find medicinal plants. The kind snake girl and red dragon also gave me their scales as gifts. This will be fine, right?"
Seikyu Yuuki put the glass beside him, nodded, and smiled sweetly at me.
"I also want to give you a gift. So what do you want?"
"A gift, I don't think it's necessary to go to such trouble."
"No, I have to give you a gift. So, what do you want?"
"Are you forcing me?"
"Of course!"
"But you've already given me this magical pouch. This is more than enough. I'm happy with this gift from you."
"That's not enough. I have to give you more!"
"I don't think it's necessary to be excessive to me. I don't feel comfortable receiving your gift anymore. We just met. It's not good for me to receive gifts from other people. I feel uncomfortable."
"But you're leaving. Will you forget me?"
"That's impossible. I will never forget you. Even if you are outside Undermoon, I will still remember you. I am very happy to have a friend like you."
Seikyu Yuuki smiled, "Go, your time is almost up. You have to come back before the portal closes. See you later, Moon?"
I approached Seikyu Yuuki and hugged her tightly, "See you later, Seikyu Yuuki. Let's hang out together again sometime. Goodbye," I said, and then the magic stone began to glow and took me back to Undermoon Academy.
Seikyu Yuuki kissed Moon's forehead before she really left. The feeling grew for her and became stronger.
