Shinon was in a room where Miri's brother lay on a bed, Niki was sleeping with difficulty with a wet towel on his forehead.
Niki: Ha... ha...
He prepared a medicine in a saucer by mixing the contents of some bottles that he brought with him.
Shinon: Now drink this
After the boy drank it, he fell asleep soundly and peacefully as Shinon, Miri, and Stella watched him.
Shinon wiped the sweat from his forehead with a relieved expression.
Shinon: This will reduce your symptoms for now.
Stella: Thank you very much, I don't know how to pay you!
Shinon: This will help you for now, the white juniper is still necessary for its recovery.
The girl knelt next to her brother.
Stella: Miri, let him sleep, he needs to rest.
Niki: Sister ...
The boy spoke between dreams
Miri: I'm here!
The girl turned her gaze to Stella.
Miri: Stella, you can retire, I'll stay to take care of him.
Stella: Will you be okay?
Stella put her hand on Miri's head with a smile.
Stella: I understand, I'll leave you with him
Miri: Yes
Shinon watched the scene silently with a smile on his face, then went to look at the darkness of the night through the window.
Stella: Is something wrong?
Shinon couldn't stop thinking about his careless friend.
YGGDRASIL: FIRST FLOOR
The night has come in the labyrinth where two people lit by a single lantern were looking for a medicinal flower to help a sick child. The two came to an area of the forest where there were several rocky pillars.
Kain: Now what, Manari?
The holster took out a map to see her location.
Manari: Alright, let's walk quietly around here
Kain: It is very dangerous to stay lost at night
Manari: My teacher said the same thing. My memory and my intuition are not a bother. But we can trust this plane and this compass. I received a copy of the map that my teacher made, she did not go out without a map
Kain: I'm not worried about your teacher...
Manari: Ah! There is no doubt, in this place we can find the white juniper!
As Kain walked, he felt that something with his senses.
Kain: Wait a minute
The samurai stopped Manari with his hand.
Manari: What is it?
Kain made a sign with his finger to be able to hear better, it was a sound of someone walking, but it did not seem like a person.
They hid behind a rock to see what it was like.
Manari: Ah!
There were a lot of giant beetles crawling all over the place, from the trees to the ground.
Manari: Giant beetles! They are many!
Kain: Our path is completely blocked, they move so fast that it would be difficult to get through
Manari: They are too close where the flower could be, what will we do?
Kain: Well ... break in and go get her? Or maybe... hmm?
The beetles began to fly until the two.
Kain: Damn! They found us!
Kain and Manari got up to get out as quickly as possible from there being chased by the flying bugs, in the end they ended up surrounded by the swarm of bugs.
