Heading Back!
Now that they were in this stage, they naturally had to find a way to get the half-orc back without earning the lord's ire. They discussed a few things first, just between the three of them siblings.
However, they were just talking in the room and Maomao could hear everything.
Were humans really trying to help her? Did Gochi really have the ability to ask a noble of such a favor? How?
…why? Why would nobles even bother? They never cared about anything unrelated to themselves…
She was very confused. This was beyond her realm of understanding and imagination, so she could only push down her curiosity for a while.
In the end, the four people headed back out about half an hour later, though Maomao appeared to be weak and had a lot of bruises on her body.
