"Aye, I will do it. I know these woods the best, just please make me some food. I will go with the young one." Subaru looks at Cedric and gets up off the floor. "I am a herbalist and I have a vast knowledge of these parts. If you are comfortable showing me what you need I will show you where to go. I will however not force you to come with me and that is a choice entirely up to you."
Boss placed a few bundles of food on the counter. "I would accept his offer. He will be able to take you straight to the closest plants and you would not need to hunt it down. He also grows some herbs in his yard and house. When my daughter got sick we all worked really hard to save her but in the end, she succumbed to her illness but she was happy to have lived."
A little boy pokes his head into the room. "Grandfather, I am hungry." He looked at the stranger and hid behind the curtains.
"Come on out Itsuki. It is safe, these people will not hurt you." Boss's gaze softened.
