Faraway Survivor

-Hyaa~ (Farah)

I feel something heavy is pressing on my chest. I open my eyes reflexively and find Kyu is sleeping on my chest.

-Oh, it's you, Kyu! (Farah)

Kyu seems to wake up by my calling. She gradually opens her eyes and stares at me.

-Kyuu?

-Did I wake you up, Kyu? (Farah)

-Kyuuu~

Kyu raises from my chest and crawls up close to my face.

-What's wrong, Kyu? (Farah)

Kyu leans her face against me while growls with comfortable tones.

-Kyuuu~ Kyuu~

I pat Kyu's body in the meantime. I can feel her fluff directly through my hand.

-Kyuuu~

Her tail starts swinging happily. I can't help but hug this adorable thing with all my might.

-Who is a good girl? (Farah)

-Kyuu~

After finishing playing with Kyu, I get up and go out of the tent.

-Master, have you woken up? (Stolas)

Waiting outside of the tent is Stolas.

-Eh, Stolas, I remember I telling you to have some rest. (Farah)

-It's unnecessary, master. (Stolas)

-But there is nothing for you to guard against now. (Farah)

Stolas denies my statement.

-You never know what other humans would do something to you, master. Just for sure, I need to stay here to protect you. (Stolas)

I walk closer and stroke Stolas' head.

-You need to relax sometimes, Stolas. It's not like all humans are wicked beings. (Farah)

-You are really naive, master. (Stolas)

-Hehe. (Farah)

-It's not a compliment at all, master. (Stolas)

-Kyuuu!

Stolas stares at Kyu.

-Don't encourage her, Kyu. (Stolas)

-Eh? You can understand everything Kyu says? (Farah)

-No, I merely read what she is thinking in her head. (Stolas)

-Oh! I want that kind of power, too. I can barely under her with all those growlings. (Farah)

-I would become the translator for you, master. (Stolas)

-Really? (Farah)

Stolas nods and replies.

-One day break with master doesn't sound that bad. (Stolas)

After Stolas joins up with me, I start to go around the new camp.

-Hey, Stolas? (Farah)

-What's the problem, my master? (Stolas)

-Why do people in the camp bend down on their knees when I come across them? (Farah)

-Oh, my master doesn't know about that. (Stolas)

-What do you mean by that? (Farah)

-After you performing miracles such as rebuilding this dimension, people start to worship you as their god. (Stolas)

-Ehhhhh? Why did it turn into like this? (Farah)

-It's something that you can't change anymore, master. (Stolas)

While I'm talking with Stolas, a little girl goes to my side.

-Goddess Farah! (Little Girl)

The girl is trying to give me a banana in her hand.

-Please make my family healthy all year round! (Little Girl)

I have no choice and decide to receive the fruit since I don't want to shatter her dream. After giving me the fruit, the little girl instantly runs back to her parent's side.

-You are really soft on the little girl, master. (Stolas)

I pout and reply to Stolas.

-I have no choice. (Farah)

-However, you are digging the grave for yourself, master. The other will believe you as a true goddess since you accept the offering from others. (Stolas)

As Stolas said, other people rush toward my side and give me various kinds of offerings.

-Ah, please!

-Oh, mighty goddess, please!

-Please help our daughter.

Stolas places me in her arm and summons a gigantic owl.

-Steps aside. Our goddess needs to take a break. (Stolas)

Kyu climbs on the owl body and reaches my side.

-Kyuuuu!

-I won't forget about you, Kyu. (Farah)

-Let's go, master. (Stolas)

Stolas orders the owl to fly away and land in a quiet place near the forest.

-We should be safe over here, master. (Stolas)

I can feel my face is a little red.

-You can put me down now, Stolas. (Farah)

Stolas replies with a monotone voice while putting me down.

-Here you go, master. (Stolas)

-Kyuuu!

Kyu also jumps off along with me.

-What are we going to do here, Stolas? (Farah)

-You can do whatever you want, master. Like, play with Kyu. (Stolas)

-Kyuuuu!

-She is extremely excited to play with you, master. (Stolas)

-Hehe, Is that so? Let's play then, Kyu! (Farah)

-Kyuuuu~

-Let's play a chasing game, Kyu. Catch me if you can! (Farah)

-Kyuuu~Kyuuu~

As for the result of the chasing game, I lost terribly.

-Hya~ you caught me again. (Farah)

-Kyuuu~

I can't let the cute appearance of Kyu deceive me. Kyu's origin is still a wolf, and she is much stronger than me when I'm not transforming.

-Mooo~ You are so fast, Kyu. (Farah)

-Kyuuu!

-Let's play hide and seek this time, Kyu! (Farah)

-Kyuuuu.

Again, I lost terribly under Kyu's paw. She can easily find my place by using her nose.

-You are so good at the game, Kyu. (Farah)

Kyu makes a proud face and growls.

-Kyuuuuu!

I can't help but pinch her cute cheeks.

-This cheeky little wolf! (Farah)

-Kyuuu!

I take out a ball from the dimension pocket.

-This time, we will play the game call fetch. I will throw the ball, and you will catch it and bring it back to me. (Farah)

-Kyuuuu!

Kyu seems really excited about the game I told her.

-Catch it, Kyu! (Farah)

I throw the ball with all my might. It doesn't fly too far since I have limited physical strength. We finish our playing sessions after a while and decide to take a break under a tree.

-Let's take a break, Kyu. (Farah)

-Kyuuu~

Stolas, who stands outside since we play, calls out to me.

-Master, It's almost lunchtime. (Stolas)

-I will take a break for a moment. Maybe a little nap first. (Farah)

Kyu suddenly climbs on my face and kisses me on the forehead.

-Kyuuuuu!

-What are you doing, Kyu? (Farah)

Stolas informs me.

-Kyu wants you to kiss her back on the forehead, master. (Stolas)

-Heh~ (Farah)

I kiss Kyu on her forehead. Then I take her down and hug her tightly.

-Let's take a nap, Kyu. (Farah)

-Kyuuu~

When my consciousness is fading, I can faintly hear Stolas talking.

-As expected of a natural-born predator, kissing on the forehead is one method for her to mark master as her mate. (Stolas)
