Helping

The white hair girl then asks Yei a question where she was already dead or not. As she believes that she had been eaten by the wolves and Yei was someone from the dead realm coming to fetch her.

"Sorry, but I will not be delivering you to the afterlife as you're not dead yet."

The girl looks confused, "Really? Are you the one that saved me from the wolves..."

"Look around you, is there anyone here besides me." Yei then said, "Of course I was the one that saved you."

When Yei said that, she felt like she somehow was boasting herself that much. Yei does know that she just killed a bunch of wolves that surely others could handle much more easily. The wolf was categorized as a beginner monster after all.

"Thank you..." The white hair girl said to me,

"No problem, just doing the right thing. But are you okay?" Yei pointed to the girl's wound.

"It does hurt but I think I would be fine. I would not forget what you had done, I will surely repay you... is there anything you wanted the help of, just say it? At least what I can do."

"There's no need to repay me anything as"

Yei paused for a moment as she realized something. There's indeed something that the girl could do for Yei. That was showing Yei the way out of this field of wildflowers. As Yei had been trying to get out of here for a few hours already failed.

"I guess I will take your offer after all, could you show me where the exit was. Somehow I just couldn't find it..."

"How do you enter this place in the first place?"

"Well I just happen to stumble upon this place and somehow forget the way out, that's how lost I am right now.."

The girl then smiles, "I suppose because of that reason I was saved if you happen to not be lost in this area. I would be eaten by the wolves already. And sure I would help you, just follow my lead."

Hearing that, Yei realizes that the white-haired girl was right. It seems like fate has brought Yei to meet this girl but somehow Yei was a bit disappointed as she was a woman. How Yei wishes her character was a man as for sure that this white hair girl would fall in love with Yei. Seeing how much Yei risked my life for the girl.

In Yei's mind, there's no way that the white hair girl likes a woman sexually because she must be like the other girl, wanting a man that has a big... fortune and good looks.

The girl then tried to stand up but fell shortly after. Luckily, Yei managed to catch her before she touched the ground completely.

"Are you really okay?" Yei asked worriedly.

"I think I had sprained my ankle when I was running from the wolves before..."

"Can you walk?"

"No, I do not think I can... it hurt so much."

Yei then looks onto the girl's legs to check, she was surprised that the girl had bruises on the ankle. It was swollen and Yei realized it was serious. If it doesn't get treatment right away, it may become chronic.

"You must get treatment immediately, is there any nearby village that has a healer or priest?"

"Gria Town is not far from here but there's no way I could walk that far, my leg feels weak and I would fall immediately."

Yei does realize that as well, there's no way the girl would walk in that condition. Even if the girl tried to force herself, it would just worsen the ankle condition. Which would be very bad for the girl of course. As there's no alternative left, Yei figures out the only way for her to get to the town.

"Who says that you need to walk, I would be the only one to walk there while carrying you. That way, your sprained ankle condition would not worsen."

"Are you sure? It's embarrassing for me to say but I'm quite heavy..."

"No need to worry, I am confident in my strength as I would be piggybacking you the rest of the way. You just need to show me the path as I do not know where Gria Town was."

With that, the girl wrapped her arms around Yei's neck. When Yei was about to stand up herself, she somehow started to doubt whether she could lift the girl up or not. Compared to herself, the white hair girl does have a little more fat than her.

But there's no way Yei could turn back now after saying all of that towards the girl. With all of her strength, Yei stood up and managed to do it without much trouble. Yei then tried to step forward and she succeeded. She also notices that the white-haired girl wasn't that heavy at all.

"Okay then, you're in charge of direction... where do I need to head now?"

"Just walk straight ahead, I will let you know when you need to change direction."

Yei followed the given order as she walked forward. Along the way, both of them begin to have a conversation.

"Did we have to introduce ourselves yet?" The white hair girl asked.

"No, we don't."

"I see, I suppose I would introduce myself first then. My name is Elina... Elina Ineris."

"Just call me Yei, there's no need to know my last name."

"Why!? Is there something wrong with your last name?"

"Nah, I just prefer to be called Yei, that's all..."

Yei was starting to feel uncomfortable as she could feel Elina's chest pressing against her back. Maybe this was the perk of being a woman, Yei thinks. As if Yei was a man, Elina would surely be angry.

Somehow Yei feels a little jealous about Elina's chest. Even if Yei realizes that there's no need for her to be jealous at all. As Yei was a man after all. But Yei quickly brushes off that thought from her mind.

"I just hope that I would not start to think about liking men..." Yei says within herself.
