"That's enough, right?

That's what I said as I pulled out the arrow of prey I caught that way and returned my bow and arrow barrel to Aldo.

"... Huh"

Aldo looked a lot dissatisfied, but when he received the bow and arrow barrel, he left the scene with his nose ringing without saying anything. I was surprised, too, but Aldo didn't complain since I took all that prey. Well, maybe it was hard for Aldo, the boulder, to complain because he was so provocative.

"Aldo!"

Louis spoke to Aldo, but Aldo leaves without even looking back. Louis seemed worried about what to do while alternating between me and Aldo. For once, it's a man to man, and we should go after him, right?

"For once, why don't we go after him?

"But..."

He was looking at me as he said.

"What?"

"Leaving Mr. Lena on this mountain is a bit..."

Could you have been worried about me? He cared about me for once. But I'm used to it in the mountains, so it's okay, right?

"I'm okay, okay? 'Cause I'm pretty used to being in the mountains, and I'm better at weapons over here."

That's what I'm saying. Let me see the knife on your back.

"... a thin sword?

Then Louis said so with his neck tilted. Well, I thought it might be impossible not to know because Mr. Egil said that knives are very rare around here.

"Well, you just have to think of it as something like that"

"... ok. What about Sella?

"I'm with you, Lena"

"Well, be careful, both of you."

That's what Louis said and went after Aldo.

"... I'm gonna dismantle it for now, so wait, okay?

"Yeah."

That's how I dismantled the prey I just caught and turned it into a hemp bag.

"Okay, so what do we do after this? Louis went somewhere after him, and you want to go back to the firewood we collected earlier?

"Uh-huh. Should we do that for now? Maybe Louis and the others headed there."

Serra seemed to agree with me, so we headed to the place where the firewood was laid.

Then we went back to where we put the firewood, but Louis and the others weren't there. Well, there was no certainty that he was just saying he might be back...

I didn't think I had a choice but to stay here long enough to discuss it with Serra and just hold the firewood and go down the mountain. That's why I went down the mountain careful at my feet when I collected as much firewood as I could hold.
