Chapter 49: Chapter 49: Worried

–Pov Shelly–

The night before.

I chased Lute and looked for him in the forest, even after looked for quite a while, I couldn’t find him at all. I’m feeling restless now and try to call him using Seezingcal, but that’s also useless no answer from him.

As it was getting late, I returned home to tell them. Arriving in front of the house, I opened the door loudly. The others were startled when they heard the sound of the door.

“Shelly, what’s wrong? You look panicked?” Leila asked curiously

“Lute, he’s missing, we have to find him now.”

“He’s missing? What do you mean, didn’t you go look for him before?” Leila said dumbfounded.

“That’s right, I found him before, it’s just that his condition is a little strange, he also even…”

After remembering the previous incident, my body became hot and my face immediately turned red, but I quickly shook my head.

“I saw him running into the forest, I didn’t have time to chase him that time, So I’m asking you to help me find him.”

Karyn who heard this furrowed her brows, she looked displeased when she heard that she had to find Lute, plus she didn’t like him at all.

“Maybe, he just went into the forest. Shelly, why are you so panicked? I’m sure he’ll come back later too,” Karyn looked at me strangely.

“Karyn, I know you don’t like Lute, but Lute is now in a bad condition, he might get attacked by monsters while in the forest and can’t defend himself,”

“Hmph, ​​I don’t care at all what happens to him,” Karyn snorted.

“Karyn, I beg of you, please help me find Lute,”

“Ugh..”

I held Karyn’s hand with a pleading expression, Karyn saw my pleading face, felt her heart melt, and could only sigh.

“Alright, alright, I’ll help you find him,”

“Is that true? I’m glad” I smiled happily.

“I will also help, I wonder where Lute is going at this time of night? Is he spending a night with a woman?” Leila laughed.

My face only reddened at Leila’s words, if I hadn’t rejected Lute before, I might have done that with Lute. Not long after that, we all went out of the house and looked for Lute who was not known to exist in the forest.

–Pov Lute–

Noon, at the moment.

As I was running in the forest, I saw footprints on the ground. If they were just normal footprints I would have ignored them, but these footprints were different from usual. These footprints resemble those of a monster and many human footprints around it.

‘What happened? Have the scientists started to move yet?’

I felt terrible worry, anxiety, and tension, which shook my mind. I bit my lower lip and ran as fast as I could to find a direction to the village. but as time went on, I became more and more panicked, unable to find my way to the village.

Woli who saw me panicking couldn’t help but sigh, she started to think her Master was acting like a child who panics easily, where her usually calm demeanor.

“Master calm down, if you run in a panic and don’t know your destination, it will end up getting you lost, at least try to calm down first.”

“But woli, I don’t know the current state of the village…” I looked at her worriedly.

“That’s why you have to calm down, don’t think anything bad happened. Be an adult and calm your mind!!” Woli comes towards me raising her hand and hitting my head badly.

The impact of woli’s attack made me roll backwards, I groaned in pain holding my head which seemed to have a slight lump there.

“W-what are you doing, why did you hit me!?” I looked at her in surprise.

“Don’t you see yourself now!? You are like an adult who acts like a child, just look at Dina, she also looks worried about you,” Woli said angrily.

I widened my eyes in shock, heard Woli’s words, and saw Dina who was on my collar. She looked at me worriedly, ever since I found that trace, I became panicked and scared. Dina was also worried about my condition.

“That’s right Lute, you look panicked and scared, I’m always with you so don’t worry,”

Dina came out of my clothes and her body reshaped into a beautiful woman, she hugged my head with her chest. I felt a soft and pleasant feeling in my head.

“But, but..”

“Master, take a deep breath and exhale, inhale deeply, exhale,” Woli demonstrated how to calm myself down.

I followed what she ordered, took a deep breath, and then exhaled. After doing this I feel better now.

The reason I became so panicked was that I was afraid that something would happen to Shelly’s party. In the game Party Shelly ends horribly, they died horribly in laboratory where scientists were researching. I also feel sad when they die in such a pathetic condition, no matter how, I have to save them.

“Master, at least trust us too, if you bear it yourself, you will have a hard time finding a solution, I believe Dina can also help you now, isn’t she a Slime, maybe she can find the river flow here, if we follow the river flow, we should be able to return to the village,” Woli explained to me her plan.

I didn’t even think about this plan beforehand, because my mind was in a state of panic, which left me with no idea where I was going.

“Dina, can you find the river flow!?”

I lifted my head from her chest and asked hopefully. Dina looked at me with a smile and nodded.

“I can Lute, so rest easy we are also here and can always help you, I also want to be a strength for Lute,” Dina looked at me with a worried expression.

Hearing this, I finally felt calm. If Dina can find the river flow, problem of getting lost in the forest no longer exists, I have to quickly go to the village now I’m afraid something will happen there.

“Okay, I’ve calmed down, thanks Woli, Dina,”

“Hmpn, ​​without me you can’t do anything Master,” Woli snorted.

“I’m always with Lute, so if you’re worried, just tell me,” Dina smiled.

“Um, I’ll keep that in mind, let’s go now,”

Dina turned into a slime and returned to my clothes, Woli also flew and followed me running. This time Dina led the way we were headed. I followed her directions. Not long after I ran, I found the river flowing, and followed it.

“This place?, there’s no mistaking it, this is where I met Shelly last night,”

I rejoiced at finding a path to the village. This place is where yesterday I almost tried to raped Shelly, luckily I can still control my lust, even though I finally took it out on Dina.

“Let’s go to village,”

I rushed towards the village, after passing through the village and arriving there, I breathed a sigh of relief. Nothing has happened here yet, which means enemy hasn’t started action yet. I have to go back now, see Shelly state and the others.

“Hey, you’re here, you’re going anywhere, Shelly even told us to look for you all night,” Karyn who came out of nowhere came towards me with an annoyed face.

“Shelly, where’s Shelly?”

“They’re looking for you, and don’t you have Seezingcal?, why don’t you call us?” Karyn looks at me angrily.

‘Oh yeah, I forgot, I have that thing, It seems I panicked too much and forgot a lot of things’ I cried in my heart.

“You wait here I will call them,”

Karyn took out Seezingcal and called them to return. Not long after that everyone returned from the forest.
