I have a bad feeling since the ground's shaking a bit, I can't hide my anxiousness, it's all written on my face, the only thing in my head right now is hoping Erwin to be safe, I don't want him to do anything reckless.
I told Erwin to stay and watch the house, I told him to wait for me to get back home, I don't want him to do anything that 8 years old kid should be doing, like last time he got injured when he's in the south forest, Elis told me that and that one time I really really be thankful to Elis-sama, that girl saves Erwin, she also accompanies Erwin back home, and the maid of her use healing magic for Erwin.
I can't keep myself calm, I keep tapping on the desk to calm myself, but it won't do after all.
There was some more guest coming to the inn, I guess there are still some people who wanted to hunt a magical beast in the south forest huh, even after a lot of accident that even after they knew a lot of adventurers died and got a lot of injuries there recently
A lof of adventurer got a traumatic experience and won't even go there anymore, some people from the neighborhood also decided to moves from this village.
My feeling is starting to get really uneasy, I feel like something bad might happen soon, after that last small earthquake I can feel some unusual mana flow coming from the forest.
I take a peek sometimes at the window towards the south forest, but it won't do because I can't see anything but buildings from here.
I wander near the front door aimlessly and bite my nail sometimes, I really can't get rid of these anxious feelings, I can feel the mana flowing like I feel last time, it's like someone is using a high spell magic again, but this time it doesn't feel like a human cast it, I just feel like something bad is going to happen soon.
it seems that Wilda-san is noticing my weird behavior and decided what's happening with me, she looks worried.
"Ah.. I'm alright, I'm just worried about something"
"And what it is?"
"I left Erwin to look over the house, but I can't feel calm at all, I'm afraid something bad might happen, but it's just my feeling ma'am, don't worry about it"
I tried to laugh a little so Wilda-san won't worried about my behavior.
"You shall go home now Ilya-chan, I'm sorry for bothering you and make you left Erwin all by himself home"
"It's not a problem ma'am, he's a good child, I told him to just stay home, it's okay"
Wilda-san looks like she's feeling bad for calling me to help over the inn and keep forcing me to go back home.
"I'm sorry for calling you over Ilya-chan... bring over Erwin-kun to play alright.."
I finally gave up and decided to go back home now, Wilda-san keeps pushing me to do or else she would feel so sad for calling me over to help.
Suddenly my body is shivering, something isn't right, it's like some mana is gathering up in one place right now like something is about to explode.
I walk faster, I can't feel calm, I want to hug Erwin and let go of this uneasy feeling, something isn't right, why am I feeling so worried right now, what am I worrying at? I myself don't even know what am I worrying at, it's just I feel like something is going to happen, something bad.
I finally arrived at our house and try to open the door.
"Hm? it isn't locked"
I push the door and inside the store feels so quiet, I walk inside the house and call Erwin for several times.
"He didn't answer, did he sleep right now?"
I went to Erwin's room and I see no one is inside, I'm starting to get panic and call Erwin over and over again.
I went through every single room in this house and I can't find Erwin anywhere, I went to the backyard and I can't find Erwin either.
"Erwin.."
I fell on my knees, I'm so worried right now, where's Erwin at? I told him to stay and watch over the house.
I run back to the front yard with tears in my eyes, I look around and I see Erwin's walking with someone.
"Erwin..."
I quickly run towards him, and unconsciously slap him on the cheek, the girl who is with him is Elis, she held me back from hitting Erwin again after I yelled at him.
I feel angry, but I'm so worried and sad on the inside, I can't lose my only family, I don't want to lose Erwin, he's the only one I had now.
Erwin runs away after I hit him and I fell on my knees, I'm a mean sister for him now, I cry out loud right after and a man suddenly appears in front of me and Elis.
"What happened to you? I saw Erwin running on my way here"
Alto-san is giving me a handkerchief and tell Elis to bring me back inside my house.
