ACIEL'S DIARY : INDIGO
SHEET 4.9: SENSITIVITY TO SITUATIONS

Looks like this girl doesn't remember me, it's just a dream I can see from one side, huh? I thought because we looked before this girl would remember me but it was a mistake.

If he remembered me, such a look would not appear on his face.

"Hah—!!"

I tried to smile and stretch out my hand, the girl's shoulder slightly jerked and retreated with her hand.

He was really wary of me, perhaps the rest of the impression I gave the two spirits that were bothering him. All right, what am I supposed to do? Ah, I need to talk.

"Are you okay? Your body looks a little chafed."

"Hum—!!"

The long-eared girl immediately jumped up as I tried to crouch down, using my head as her footing and darting off in the other direction, disappearing on the bushes.

"Ow ... It didn't hurt but it felt quite disrespectful. Well, I don't really matter."

If he can still move like that means his body is fine, I don't need to do anything else to help him. The rest just need to get out of here ... Huh uh?

Ah, goddamn. I didn't realize it at all. How'this? Master would definitely nag me if he were here.

"Well, what am I supposed to do now?"

I looked around, at the dense trees with quite tall bushes on each side, all of them had the same look. I completely forgot where it came from.

In other words, I was lost.

Letting emotions take over and forgetting everything and getting lost, after telling Ella that I wouldn't have gotten lost in the woods.

Embarrassing.

Well, I have to do something about this before it gets dark. For the first step, maybe I can climb up the tall trees and see more clearly the entire forest. From there I could find the route again.

I nodded slowly, the first plan was already set.

But as I lowered the bag and raised the trousers, a gaze fell on my back. I glanced to make sure.

Someone was watching me closely, his existence felt familiar. That was because the one who saw me from the bushes was the girl with long ears that I had met before.

"She just seemed curious and had no intention of doing anything. Then I just need to ignore him, he might get bored and leave after a while."

I folded my long sleeves on my tracksuit and pants once again. Then approach one of the trees with the tallest trunk and the most branches, then start climbing it.

Stems are dry and strong in the absence of insects or caterpillars. Ideal tree type that is easy for anyone to climb. It only took me a little while until I reached the peak.

"Ah, my goodness ... It's completely blocked."

Ignoring the Spirit flying in the sky, all the lines of sight I had were blocked by other trees of the same height.

It made the passable path invisible at all and only left behind a scene filled with green foliage. The first one didn't work, did it?

How this ... Hm? I thought the light had become dim as it went too deep into the forest but the sky was also beginning to fill with black clouds and cover the sunlight.

Maybe it won't be long until the rain falls, I should be right back.

"Has Ella and Mona reached the inn, huh?"

"Aciel!!"

As I tried to get down, a voice called my name. There was no need to ask anything, it was the Master's voice. I looked straight at the sky.

In the distance, there was a black tiger flying on the foot of greenish-black clouds at each foot. The tiger went around at the top of the forest and called my name several times.

I stood on top of a tree branch, then waved wide and shouted as loud as possible. The master looked down several times to look for me until he turned to me.

"Dumb fuck!! How dare you leave me in a bag like that!!"

"Wahaha!! I'm sorry, it's really not spared—Ahh!! The master!! Help me!!"

Because I was too excited, I moved my body a lot and my legs slipped, making my body fall.

"Basic fool!!"

But the Master immediately accelerated and caught my body with his mouth, threw my body on his back and I landed on the fine feathers.

"Bgwhekk—!!"

After finishing the landing, the black cat threw my body on the grass surface and changed its shape into a cat.

"It hurts!! What are you doing all of a sudden?!"

"I'm the one who should have said that, stupid boy. You could have gone into the woods so far without my supervision. What would you do if a spirit ate your body?"

"Well, I'm getting some schoolwork and there's some stuff going on."

"Huh? Some things? Tell me what happened in detail ... Hm? I sense the existence of the Spirit, it's near here."

The master raised the corner of his head and sniffed a few times. Then the cat looked towards the bushes and approached him but I stopped him immediately.

"What are you doing?"

"Oh that might be the Spirit watching me from earlier, I'll tell you. So this is ..."

I also told her about the events since I was on the cliff with the previous arrangement of stones, then heard the sound of screaming and helping the girl Spirit from the Spirits who were bothering her.

After listening to the story, Master just snorted in annoyance as usual and jumped on my shoulder.

"Well, he's just a lowly spirit after all. I could have ignored him. Put that aside, let's get back. There'll be rain after this."

"Hm, I also plan to do it but why did Master turn into a cat? We can fly and get there fast, right? At least we don't have to walk."

"Pampered boy, I've spent a lot of energy looking for you. So you're the one who has to take me now, I won't let you ride on my back for a while."

Geez, what a selfish cat. I'm lazy to argue any further so it's better to let it go now and keep quiet.

"I get it, let's walk."

"It's good if you understand."

With Master on my back, I immediately tidied up all the items, tidied up the gym clothes and did a re-check on the observation task.

After making sure nothing was lacking or left behind, we walked back. The master knows the path to take from his very sharp kiss so there is no need to worry about getting lost.

Then maybe this was a little unrelated but the animal-eared girl still followed behind me and did not leave. My back feels so itchy but I have to hold it now.

And by the time we had reached the halfway point, the heavy rain that was the main worry at the moment had finally come.

While carrying Master on the shoulder, I quickly took shelter under a fairly dense banyan tree. At least there was only a little water that would drip down.

The rain is quite heavy but it is only a matter of time until the intensity is reduced.

"Shower from the heavy rain under the banyan tree located in the interior of the forest with a cat on the shoulder, while being watched by the spirit of the animal-eared girl. Really, what kind of situation is this?"

"uh? Did you say anything?"
