As I watched Phillip walk outside of the guildhall, I could only feel pity towards him. He is stepping into the jaws of Hell and he doesn't even realize it. One can only pray for him now.
"Kenji-san, Kenji-san!" Erana poked my arm as I turned towards her. "How did you know that person?"
"Uh…" I leaned back in my chair. "I don't exactly know him, but we both came from Earth."
Erana stared at me in amazement for a moment. "He's from Earth? He doesn't look anything like you though!"
I shrugged. "Well yeah. Earth is a big planet. From the way he looked and acted, I can tell he was from a place called America."
Erana looked to the side. "I don't think I would want to go there then…" She muttered.
"Why? Did you not like that guy or something?"
Erana simply looked away and shook her head. For Erana to dislike someone means that they absolutely came off on the wrong foot, so I'm actually rather impressed.
What? You didn't think I was just going to cut Tael out of the story entirely now did you? He's one of my favorite characters to write!
As for the other stuff, this is alluding to later volume business so look forward to that in volume 6.
Catch you on the flip side!
