Chapter 889
Ms. Delia had other business to attend to
“Well, that should do it.”
“...I could not move like that. I really am not at your level, Nicholas and Phillip.”
“Ah, just a little acrobatics. Nothing to worry about. Besides, it wouldn’t be as useful when fighting one against one.”
“Really?”
Indeed, there was something very unique about his movements, and I wouldn’t try to copy them.
“Mr. Takumi! Are you alright? Still, it was impressive how you were able to cut at it.”
“Ah, Ms. Delia. I’m perfectly fine... No, it was only because you weakened it for us.”
“...Delia must really like you. We also worked quite hard...”
“Foreman, you shouldn’t say such things. That’s just how it is with fathers. Not that you are a real father.”
The other wood cutters came behind Ms. Delia, and gathered around us. It was a little awkward, due to what they were saying, but I could only laugh.
At least they seemed to be having fun.
“Foreman! Could we rest a little?”
“Yes, I’ll be fine!”
Once we were back at the forest entrance, Ms. Delia spoke to the foreman.
Apparently, she had something to do...
“Ms. Delia? What are you going to do?”
“I’m going to search for herbs for the chief. There is a herb that if crushed and wrapped in cloth, it helps with back pain... They grow around here. And so I was asked to gather some on the way.”
“Oh. There are herbs that do that... How interesting...”
“Takumi. Perhaps this is his time?”
“Indeed. I wonder what he will do.”
“Hmm?”
Phillip and Nicholas were talking to each other.
And then Ms. Delia looked at them and tilted her head with a puzzled expression.
