Chapter 254
It was a highway with wind blowing gently. The grasses as high as the waist were making rustling sounds. Dusts were gently rolled up to the air by the breeze.
Silhouettes of two people could be seen at the other side of that dust.
One person was a girl with the appearance of a villager girl, while the other one was a girl with the appearance of an apprentice sister. They looked unsteady somehow. Or rather, the apprentice sister was completely carried on the back of the villager girl. Her body was limply leaning on the villager girl's back.
The villager girl too, she was carrying the apprentice sister while using a beautiful sword as replacement for cane. Her shoulders were moving much from her rough breathing「zee zee」, so much so that it sounded like it could be heard from far away. If this area wasn't the highway that connected village to village, then she would be mistaken as a victim that was lost in the middle of mountain.
Her clothing also spurred on such impression. The two of them were tattered. Although the important parts were barely protected, the fringe part of the one piece had became a really original miniskirt state, the sleeves part was also in forced state of no sleeve that if it was seen from the side, the breast part felt a little bit dangerous.
The two's white smooth skin was exposed much, and those exposed parts were dirtied by dust everywhere, the two's hair also felt unkempt.
「……Uu. I'm really sorry for troubling you, Kaori-san.」(TN: Here Yue's speech sounded like an old woman)
「Yue-san, you promised not to say that right?」
The carried apprentice sister――the previously sister with a screw loose Yue was running on joke material even while being dead tired. The one who was fixing her grip on the slipping off Yue with 'yoisho-' while returning the joke material precisely was of course the village chief's regrettable daughter Kaori.
