...Nothing seems to have happened to my body. It looks like nothing in particular was done to me.
That said, it's probably not that this city is particularly safe... but more that I simply wasn't found, or that no one pays any mind to someone collapsed in a back alley... that's likely all it is.
But, if that's the case, then it's actually... convenient.
I can hide in a place where no one will notice me, without leaving the city where the 'Demon Lord' Coai is supposed to be.
To search for the 'Demon Lord' again... to get closer to the 'Demon Lord' and learn of this planet's potential, it seems I first have to perform a 'Communication'.
I don't know how long it will take. I want to get it done quickly, without any unnecessary distractions. It should be my first time 'Communicating', so I'm worried if there might be other problems... but for now, it's a relief just not having to worry about prying eyes.
I squeezed myself into the deepest corner of the shadows and focused my mind on 'Communicating'.
Just by doing that, my vision went completely dark, and I lost all strength in my body.
I believe……they get someday, someway……aye, believe…………
Launch completed.
Suddenly, my vision returned, and I immediately felt a bright glare... I raised a hand to shield my face.
My body can move. I try moving my limbs while shifting my gaze.
Visually and sensorially, nothing seems particularly different. It looks like there are no problems.
Feeling a little relieved, I squinted and looked up at the sky... The direction of the sunlight had changed from before the 'Communication'.
Is that why it felt so bright? The sun is in the south-southwest; it seems to be just past noon.
Now then, the scent of the 'Demon Lord' Coai's particles... good, it's still drifting thickly in the air.
Does the 'Demon Lord' normally live in this city? Or is she just coincidentally staying here yesterday and today?
Either way... I'll try searching within the city again today.
I decide to patrol the streets where people are walking, over and over.
The sunlight turned red and sank below the horizon... I kept walking down similar streets until night fell, but no memories were visualized... In other words, I had no contact with anyone who seemed to be the 'Demon Lord'.
However, since the state of the surrounding particles hasn't changed, I know the 'Demon Lord' is still somewhere in the city.
