………… Eh? Aburaage……?
Eh? Aburaage… Did we have some? Sytry only prepared preserved food and Potions, right?
However, Sytry didn’t seem to be joking. She was looking at me *sowasowa* furtively, as if she was waiting for me to praise her.
I didn’t notice it at all. Maybe it was because I was just skimming through the catalog. But you don’t usually think of mixing Aburaage with preserved food.
I smiled and patted Ghost Sytry on the head to deceive her.
Ghost Sytry’s soft hair passed through my fingers and her slightly droopy eyes relaxed a little more.
“Un, un, thanks to you it has really helped me. No, I am not kidding, it has really helped me. If it wasn’t for that, ………… Right. A lot of things would have gone wrong.” (Cry)
“Last time, you used it to get us out of a tight spot in the 【Lost Inn】…… So, I thought you would definitely need it…… I found some but it was really hard. It is because Aburaage is not something you usually find in Zebrudia. Thank goodnesss……” (Sytry)
I am not lying. It didn’t help, but if I had known it was there, it would have helped, so there was absolutely no flaw in Sytry’s thinking.
It is all my fault. Yeah, you can say that it is all my fault.
I will never let her know that I didn’t know that it existed. I will never let Sytry’s smile fade away.
The most precious thing to me is Sytry, Sytry.
Maybe it was because she was happy to have helped me, Sytry said in a very good mood.
“By the way, for reference…… Was five boxes enough?” (Sytry)
“Five boxes!? Mh-Mmmh………… I wonder?” (Cry)
Sytry, I think you over-prepared. Five boxes, you say…… I don’t think that fox-mask Phantom was asking for that many either.

I looked around the ship, brushing aside what Sytry said languidly and happily. As expected, there was no sign of Term or Kechakchakka, nor any trace of them.
Are they still in the Treasure Shrine, or have they been kicked out…… If they had been kicked out into the sky, it would be bad.
It is hard to believe that a Magi of Term’s caliber can’t use flight magic. He would definitely be alive. I wanted to at least confirm if he was alive or dead. If he succeeds in assassinating the Emperor, it would be my fault, as I had brought him in and also did let him go.
Just then, my deaf ears suddenly caught a small noise. Sytry stared in amazement and looked at me.
The noise came from right in front of us――The cargo compartment, one of our destinations. Of course, this was a place that had already been checked during the search for Term before the ship fell.
The cargo compartment was really a place without anything special. Normally, it would be a place to store luggage, but this time I brought a huge amount of preserved food with me, so the space was almost completely occupied by them. Some of it was stored in each room, but it was still full. There was hardly any place to hide.
Damn, I should have brought Lucia or Anthem. Sytry isn’t weak, but she is a rearguard. As expected, it is going to be tough if her opponent is Term.
All because I had assumed that there was no possibility that Term and Kechakchakka were hiding on the ship.
Sytry gently pulled out a water pistol from her waist. I, with my Barrier Rings, went in front of Sytry and opened the door to peek inside.
The cargo compartment hadn’t changed much since the last time I had seen it. Unlike the other rooms, the cargo in the cargo compartment was secured, just in case. The crates piled high were still intact and hadn’t collapsed.
I cautiously entered the room. I looked around the room but didn’t see anything suspicious. Was the noise coming from outside?
“It is alright, it seems that it was just my imagination――” (Cry)
Just as I was about to tell Sytry that, the lid of a large wooden box piled in front of me opened without a sound.
The first thing I saw was a white pointy thing.
The lid was opened from the inside and a child in white clothes with a fox mask appeared. In its hand was a large piece of Aburaage.
Its face turned toward me. But I was just here blinking my eyes.
AD
“…………?” (Cry)
…… Use some chopsticks, you know, chopsticks…… It is bad manners to grab it with your hand.
The fox-mask looked at me and carefreely ate the Aburaage. With a smile on my face, I walked up to the box, lightly pressed its head, and *kapon* popped the lid shut.
Taking a deep breath, I lifted the box in one breath. It was a wooden box, so it had a certain weight to it, but it weighed as if there was nothing inside.
No, actually, this box is empty. It is a box with nothing in it. I look back at Sytry and laugh.
“……………… Okay, everything’s fine, yes. Let’s get our stuff out of here. ………… Maybe five boxes weren’t quite enough, yup.” (Cry)
Maybe because of the heat, I saw an illusion. Let’s quickly get our stuff out of here and go back to the city.
Maybe I accumulated too much stress. I need to have a sweet, cold drink and play with my carpet……
“Y-You caught it alive…… Cry-san, as expected of you………… I… Wouldn’t be able to imitate you.” (Sytry)
I tried to pretend that nothing had happened, but Sytry said with a slightly tense expression on her face. What should I do about this ……?
………… Eh? Aburaage……?
